Rishi Dhawan....how good is he?

[Texan]

Based on his performances, he deserved to be in the team to England instead of Binny, but he doesn't have a Godfather in the BCCI unlike Binny.

[Cricket_Hacker]

Not international quality yet IMO

[Texan]

neither is Binny

[Cricket_Hacker]

if binny is bad doesn't mean Rishi should get a go . "seam bowling all-rounders" shoudn't be played just for the sake of it

130kmh. F off Stay in ranji thank you very much.

if he can bat like jaddu then why not as a 3rd or 4th seamer ?

[Temujin Khaghan]

bowling version of Binny!

[Sir john]

quality allrounder

[cricketfan28]

[tweaker]

Has performed well in the A tour,certainly deserve a chance over Binny

If they wanted a seam bowling all-rounder, then Dhawan was a better choice purely based on his performances. If they didn't feel anybody was good enough, then neither of them should have been picked.

Deserves a shot in the ODI side as the World Cup is in Australia where spinners won't get a lot of help. Going with 2 spinners won't be a good move in Aus/NZ as we found out in NZ ODI series. I think Bhuvi can be our seamer all rounder as he can be a useful lower order batsman and go with 3 other specialist seamers and one of Ashwin or Jaddu. Rishi can be backup if one of our seamers is not doing well and he can add runs down the order.

Anyway Binny would be in squad after his 6-4.Hope Dhawan is picked up too as a backup.

I haven't seen him bat much, but his FC average of 40 is better than Binny's 36. So, he might be a better or at least equally good as a batsman. I'm pretty sure his bowling is much better.

Having seen Rishi's batting in IPL,He seems a limited batsman who can hang around and support main batsmen,like Bhuvi

[tweaker]

Rishi Dhawan has taken 10 wickets & scored more than 100 runs in Vijay Hazare trophy,then also he is ignored in favour of Binny & Vinay Kumar

[jusarrived]

Poor mans Binny
