What if Stuart binny plays next test match?

[rkt.india]

Binny is the next Kapil Dev.

Hi achillies, good to see you back :icflove:. Agree with you. Binny is being portrayed as useless. He didn't give him the chance to bat in NZ, sent Ash and Jaddu ahead of him. Didn't give him to bowl more than one over.

Hi G. Good to see you too :icflove: Yes bro. All I'm asking for, is some time. You never know how good he would turn out to be.

Just curios' date='why are u defending him?very unlike u to defend a mediocre player :hmmm:[/quote'] I'm just amazed at how fast we have been, in judging Binny. Had we judged every player in his initial outings, there would have never been a Ganguly, Kumble, Srinath, Laxman, Dravid and Tendulkar.

[Lord]

agree with Achilles

He hasn't done anything to be not judged that quickly. His 120k bowling will only work against Bangladesh. We'd not judge those players you mentioned so quickly because their FC career was much better. They had potential :--D

[TNAmarkFrmIndia]

So do Binny.

Binny can at least somewhat bowl at a good length consistently. Kohli has no control of his bowling at all.

Well he is fixed now, Topic closed! Period.

[achilles]

Oh hi Fella's. Now that Binny has SAVED THE GAME FOR US, what are the naysayers gonna do- A. Stop watching cricket B. Start supporting Pakistan C. Start watching SaaS bahu serials D. Don't give a eff. Keep watching cricket for virat. OR E. Disappear from this thread and retreat in a hole?

[skindia]

Ashwin would replace jaddu now

:giggle:

I think it would be "E". What is your pick?

[Lord]

I think it would be "E". What is your pick?

mine would F.Open similar thread and hope he actually fails this time :--D

Batting is all good but he was picked to bowl and whatever he bowled it was mediocre. If want to play him then say he is a batsman who can bowl a few overs, not an alrounder and bat him at 6.

[Sachinism]

Binny drew the test. There's nothing more Dhoni loves than to draw a test. On a serious note. As much as I don't feel he deserves to be there, he did play a match saving knock in a sense. He is a rubbish bowler and unless he's playing as a batsman its doesn't make sense to play him.

dont want Jadeja too.

[CommonMan]

"KT will get mad" option is not available

[kruiser]

Binny batted well does not mean his replacement would have batted worse.. Ashwin is a better batsman and would have bowled much more than Binny on this pitch. How successful he would have been is anybody's guess. I am all for giving Binny a chance, but on a seaming pitch. This was a horrible selection knowing that it is a dry pitch.

[vvvslaxman]

Ashwin can bat like a top order but at no 8 . Moment you push him up,the order it becomes a lottery. With no pressure he bats well at no 8. Even for his sons state he bats low down the order. Binny is more used to playing in the middle order. So it is not a straight and simple one on one replacement. One good thing is he managed to keep Rohit Sharma away. All the others are fine except him.

He was never expected to tear through the opposition batting, although in swinging conditions that might yet be a distinct possibility. That Dhoni only bowled him 10 overs speaks more about Dhoni's captaincy and the state of the pitch than Binny's ability. And when he got his chance with the bat, he took it, and thank God for that. I personally feel Binny deserves one more chance, and not least because we do not have a world beater sitting on the bench waiting for his turn. And no, tried-and-tested pretenders like Rohit and Ashwin do not count as world beaters despite their IPL exploits.
