Rajiv Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Any takers Dhoni is your typical sub-con slasher, karthik has shown some ba$$s here His shots are typical of domestic players, and it was fantastic to see that Link to comment
Predator_05 Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Re: Karthik for Tests, Dhoni for One-Dayers I'd play both of em in ODI's. Karthik would make a very good lower order batsman and could do some damage for us in the slog overs ! I was very impressed by the manner in which he seized control in that 20/20 match and took India all the way. The kid can play. Dhoni must be sh*tting it, now that he knows he isn't the only 'keeper in the country ! We'll see better performances from him now. Win-win situation. Link to comment
beetle Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Re: Karthik for Tests, Dhoni for One-Dayers Yes...infact both are better batsmen than out famed batting divas...keep them both as wk batsmen.....in place of the kaif types..... Link to comment
theguyinallblue Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Re: Karthik for Tests, Dhoni for One-Dayers OMG...Radhika...you are not favoring your childhood crush..? Kaif.. i think with return of Ganguly...in tests... he is sure to get a place in ODIs.. and there are news that he will play as opener in ODIs Vs WI.. he has always been a better ODI player.... if he gets his mojo in ODIs too....then sachin and saurav will open... so..no place for Raina or Kaif...and if i had to choose between Raina and Kaif..it would be Raina....

King Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Re: Karthik for Tests, Dhoni for One-Dayers Karthik can play as a specialist batter in test cricket. I still would like to see Dhoni playing every game, he is quite a good bat. Link to comment
beetle Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Re: Karthik for Tests, Dhoni for One-Dayers I think the selectors should give equal importance and opportunity to both... I hope this time we don't lose out one over the other...They are both good in their own right and they should both be cycled intelligently.....so that they both stay in touch and more importantly on their toes! :slap: <-----sandeep Link to comment
Dirty_South Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Re: Karthik for Tests, Dhoni for One-Dayers Select both in ODIs instead Raina,Kaif,Venugopal Rao cr@p... Karthik is Rock Solid...May be the Next Wall of the Indian team :huh: Link to comment
mad_max Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Re: Karthik for Tests, Dhoni for One-Dayers Select them both for ODIs and Tests...Sehwag can't play either so there is an opening in both forms. Link to comment
beetle Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Re: Karthik for Tests, Dhoni for One-Dayers Select them both for ODIs and Tests...Sehwag can't play either so there is an opening in both forms. agree ...that will keep both halwa boy and doodh boy on their toes..... :hic: Link to comment
Gambit Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Re: Karthik for Tests, Dhoni for One-Dayers Dhoni performed well in this series too. His 34 and 47 in T2 were good knocks. Like Predator said, it's a win win situation for us. Heck, play them together AND Pathan in our test lineup, as pure batsmen. Link to comment
Dirty_South Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Re: Karthik for Tests, Dhoni for One-Dayers Pathan as Batsman? Link to comment
Raj Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Re: Karthik for Tests, Dhoni for One-Dayers KKD needs a spot in the side... not a bad shout to have KKD for tests and Dhoni for Oone dayers but the way KKD has batted here maybe he could make the side on his batting alone? Link to comment
Raj Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Re: Karthik for Tests, Dhoni for One-Dayers The Smith catch was special... Link to comment
veer Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Re: Karthik for Tests, Dhoni for One-Dayers yup thats what I said in other thread.. KKD in team for both forms.. as a WK or as a batsman.. doesnt matter.. guy is hard worker with perfect attitude.. Link to comment
yoda Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Re: Karthik for Tests, Dhoni for One-Dayers KKD will become mediocre once he is a given a perm spot in the team. They all do. Link to comment
Dirty_South Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Re: Karthik for Tests, Dhoni for One-Dayers KKD will become mediocre once he is a given a perm spot in the team. They all do. Well said! Perfect Point! Link to comment
