G_B_ Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 perfect field placements today. would like to see him move from CSK and move to another franchise to see what he can do.
Laaloo Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 I was impressed as well. What I wasn't impressed about was when he said: Stuart Binny and Mohit Sharma, was unbelievable. This performance will definitely help Binny when he plays Test cricket in England. Binny in test cricket :nervous:
G_B_ Posted June 17, 2014 Author Posted June 17, 2014 well he is hardly going to say "binny is infact a **** bowler but BD are so crap that they made this loser appear like a match winner"
ThePhenomenal1 Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 I was impressed as well. What I wasn't impressed about was when he said: Binny in test cricket :nervous: well he's just supporting his teammates, its a matter of if and not when but he was just giving confidence. raina is a true team man #respect
tweaker Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 Raina has opened a new chapter as a Indian captain.He was certainly better than Kohli
saneindian Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 Hehe everyone was abusing him for not picking Tiwary and Jadhav! Some even called him insecure. But he did lead the side very well and very aggressively. Very well done.

cowboysfan Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 Raina has opened a new chapter as a Indian captain.He was certainly better than Kohli too bad he wont make the team for the WC.
maniac Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 too bad he wont make the team for the WC. Raina is a must in LOI's....he is not going to get a Perth Test pitch in ODI's.....Aus LOI pitches are flat mostly and Raina is probably the best lower middle order batsman in World cricket....He owns the No.6 slot for now.
G_B_ Posted June 17, 2014 Author Posted June 17, 2014 ^ does not have the best of records in Aus even in the odis... not sure on him
veer Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 Raina has opened a new chapter as a Indian captain.He was certainly better than Kohli Based on one game?? and that too against fragile Bangla?
maniac Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 ^ does not have the best of records in Aus even in the odis... not sure on him The only other guy I can see who can play in his role is Uthappa who did well in a similar role in 2008 in Aus but he is more or less a full fledged opener now. Tiiwary,Jadhav etc don't have the same track record as Raina and I am pretty sure 9/10 times they will be worse than him on pitches he will struggle.
veer Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 I hope Raina revives his career... the guy is a team man and at this stage, he should be considered senior.. but he hasnt done justice to his skills by not improving in foreign conditions.

Tiiwary,Jadhav etc don't have the same track record as Raina and I am pretty sure 9/10 times they will be worse than him on pitches he will struggle. regardless of how you feel IMO Raina has been proven to be not the best bet in Australia. India will have the commonwealth bank series before the WC in Aus. I feel Jadhav or even Uttappa should be tried at 6.
SLICKR392 Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 I was impressed as well. What I wasn't impressed about was when he said: Binny in test cricket :nervous: So that squad was indeed for the Test series in England.
BlueBee Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 In the pitch we played yesterday, Shami would have taken 10 wickets in 10 balls.
tweaker Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 Raina should now give other players in the squad a go at the helpless Bangladesh team.Jadhav,Tiwary,Vinay should plat in place of Pujara,Rayudu,Umesh
renjith Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 pleaseeeeeeeeeeee select kedar yadhav in next match.
SLICKR392 Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 No matter how bad of a game Yadav had yesterday, he shouldn't sit out for Vinnie, whatsoever.
