Suggest replacement middle-order bat for Rohit Sharma

[Temujin Khaghan]

this IPL is going to be exciting for Ranji FTB cheerleaders :p

[gakgupta]

Pujara has looked clueless why not drop him as well

yes..u r absolutely right....ur knowledge on cricket is incredible and beyond imagination......Lets drop Kohli and Pujara and bring monaj and all those who gave away wickets to vinay in the just concluded IRANI match......and they are bound to fail in couple of matches in a row and drop them as well..... Can't you see....he is probably best next generation batsmen along with Kane willaimson and Joe Root.....With his super tight technique; he is more likely to succeed than fail.....Even in this match he has seen thru the new ball which laid foundation for a big score.....I dont have the stats but i am sure he achieved more than what Rahul dravid had achieved at the same point (i mean after same number of matches)

[Detonator]

he has a few technical probs, picking wrong shots at wrong time. although his 74 in the last test is not bad. he has a good temperment I believe. no wrong persisting with him in 2 more tests

K rahul

I wrote abound Rahul. It would be nice if he gets a couple of years more in domestic cricket. His timing is really good and was hitting great drives. How is he against the moving ball and short ball ? His century in the Ranji final shows that he can perform on big occasions. Perhaps the best of the youngsters.

He is as good as u will get in ranjis Will improve with a tours but he can be included in squads as he to me has huge potential

Don't see any right now

yeah,even i think so.cant see anybody,rayudu's a hack,dont know much about jadhav.nohit will play til someone from the young generation take it to the next level

[SLICKR392]

Best we could right now is to demote Rohit and promote Rahane to #5.

[Old guy]

yeah' date='even i think so.cant see anybody,rayudu's a hack,dont know much about jadhav.nohit will play til someone from the young generation take it to the next level[/quote'] We were lucky with pujara and Kohli who were good enough from start Even rahane is already developed but u don't get whole team like this U also pick some people on potential and we need to do that here now

i am all with u but who will replace him right now? i think nohit will most probably fail in england due to swing but he can succeed in aus.apart from that nohit is good at home so cant discard him like that

Ok play him I would have said Rahul but he will be better of on a tours anyway and one failure and rohit will be back And u have a point that rohit is not hopeless everywhere ...maybe just swap rahane any rohit for now and hope for best

All very valid points. No obvious choice waiting in the wings.

if he fails in the 1st 2 test in england then he should be rightly dropped.nohit comes at a time when the ball is old so he shouldn't use excuses when other batsmen are outscoring him. we keep saying that the fab 4 struggled in their 1st oversea tours ,yes i agree but they didn't exactly fail ,sachin scored 2 tons in aus 92,119 in old trafford 1990.ganguly scored 2 tons in eng 96,scored 2 fifties in saf 96,scored a ton in nzl 98.dravid scored a ton in his 1st tour to nzl,saf,did well in england.. every batsmen of this young batch have done well in saf and nzl.mooli ,chepu,kohli did well in saf,dhawan did well in nzl.rahane has scored in both the tours .its only nohit who hasn't done well,he is the slowest learner i think,hopefully a late bloomer like laxman

It's technique which is problem With dhawan it was easy solution to just avoid short balls...now he is confident again I don't know man I just never thought he will succeed in these conditions u know me and now he is already 27 ..it's not over for him be is not really a youngster anymore u know.

Okay, I am not saying he's a replacement for Rohit, but Sanju Samson does have a bit of Rohit Sharma in him from what I see. If we can develop this kid, and make sure he is not face paced into Indian team, I think we can get a better player out of him.

[Gunner]

No one can replace Rohit, he's just going through a lean phase. He'll come good sooner than later.

[Roshanrocks]

No one can replace Rohit' date=' he's just going through a lean phase. He'll come good sooner than later.[/quote'] His entire career was a lean phase.. He just went through a small great phase :cantstop:
