Zanjeer Posted December 19, 2013 Author Posted December 19, 2013 I'm glad you are not in charge of making that decision. Watch IPL and leave test cricket for others. End is near for dhobi. He can't take his place for granted. Haven't got a century outside asia in 10 years for ffs. Only a fool would keep on playing just because he is a good odi player.
Zanjeer Posted December 19, 2013 Author Posted December 19, 2013 Werent you a big time supporter of bringing in Mohit sharma asap to test setup ? if there is one guy who hates mohit Sharma, its me. Lol. I don't understand how come people hype these medicore cricketers.. Ask sabby...:D
Tom Riddle Posted December 19, 2013 Posted December 19, 2013 I would love to bring in a youngster like sanju Samson. Yes' date=' he isn't a regular keeper, but from what I have seen he is a very good keeper and a very talented batsman..[/quote'] Dude this is SA not sawai mansingh stadium of Jaipur where that kid can smack trundler whenever he wants. There is a reason why many world renowned batsmen failed here .

There is a reason why many world renowned batsmen failed here . on the same sawai mansing stadium rahane did well. :winky: sanju Samson 's domestic records are also great. Even Brian Lara kept mentioning sanju's name whenever he spoke of young Indian batsmen.

Even Brian Lara kept mentioning sanju's name whenever he spoke of Indian batsmen. That rahane has scored everywhere in India and deserves the selection ,on the other hand Samson is quite young and still needs to play 2-3 yrs domestic cricket to prove his worth

For me, he is the best young batsman in India along with zol. Surely he can't do worse than dhoni who haven't scored a century in 10 years outside Asia. How long you gonna allow this to continue? He's not gonna score a century in his career outside Asia.

And regarding dhoni well he averages 32 in SA which is quite respectable for a wicketkeeper batsman .
CSK Fan Posted December 19, 2013 Posted December 19, 2013 Maybe Ashwin should bat ahead of him? He should still be in the team though

And regarding dhoni well he averages 32 in SA which is quite respectable for a wicketkeeper batsman . Is steyn gonna kill him or what? He smashed Mitchell jhonson with no fear whatsoever. I would take lara's views rather than yours.. As I said he is the best young talent in India along with zol. If dhobi is not doing anything, throw in a promising young man. He is miles ahead of dhoni in terms of batting. Dhoni's average outside Asia is pathetic to say the least. Give a chance to youngster, he can't do worse.
Pagalpanti Posted December 19, 2013 Posted December 19, 2013 Like Arun Lal said, Dhoni has to play his game. Even in England '11 as well the only game he scored was when he played positively.

Zanjeer Posted December 19, 2013 Author Posted December 19, 2013 lol comparing a meaningless IPL t20 game with tests surely you can do better than that . and lol @ miles ahead of dhoni ,how do you know that ? dhoni averages 39 in tests which is still good and well in ODIs he is a monster and one of the greats of the game . he has a fantastic domestic record. He is miles ahead of dhoni when you compare their batting techniques. I know dhoni is averaging unbelievable remarkable 39 in test matches but his average outside Asia is below 30s which is below par for a country like India where batting talent in abundance. I'm not questioning his place in Odis but he certainly sucks outside Asia in test matches. No matter how hard you try to hide it, its an ugly truth and he is surviving because of srini mama. There was only mohinder amaranth who had balls to remove him from captaincy but srikkanth who sucks srini mama's balls wouldn't allowed it to happen.
Raghav_12 Posted December 19, 2013 Posted December 19, 2013 Like Arun Lal said' date=' Dhoni has to play his game. Even in England '11 as well the only game he scored was when he played positively.[/quote'] He scored those runs in hopeless situations. First innings we were 7 down for 111 and he threw his bat around and connected few. Second Innings came when match was already dead. So he could easily have afforded to do that. In a live match situation as was the case y'day, he can't afford to play shots recklessly.
Cricketics Posted December 19, 2013 Posted December 19, 2013 All of them do. They all deserve whoever played in first test. I will complete this sentance after NZ tour.
Yoda-esque Posted December 19, 2013 Posted December 19, 2013 All of them do. They all deserve whoever played in first test. I will complete this sentance after NZ tour. True cricket fan :hatsoff:
