Marco Polo Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 I have been noticing that he is getting out bowled against seamers plenty of times in the past few months. What could be the reason? Slow reflexes? Just like Sachin and Dravid were getting out when their reflexes slowed down at the end of their careers.. I know he is a young man but I somehow feel that after his injury on his knees, he seems to have slower reflexes either with his footwork or something which is missing from the first time I saw him bat against Australia few years ago when he made his debut. Any other reasons you guys could think of? Discuss.
Old guy Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 little technical glitch ...should be easy fix for him doccricket 1
tweaker Posted July 18, 2014 Posted July 18, 2014 He should sort out this problem early,he has high amount of bowled in his dismissal
SLICKR392 Posted July 18, 2014 Posted July 18, 2014 Legendary #3s of the past usually gets bowled more often. Anyhow, it's the usual dismissal where he missed the lines of the ball that angles in.
kubrickian Posted July 18, 2014 Posted July 18, 2014 Yes, he needs to work on playing that in swinging delivery. Sometimes leaves a gap between bat and pad.
game_changerr Posted July 18, 2014 Posted July 18, 2014 sheer bad luck,,ihe has been dismissed by some unplayable balls...since SA tour,,yeserday was exception though
undisputed chap Posted July 18, 2014 Posted July 18, 2014 He struggles vs inswingers. Technical flaw.
CSK Fan Posted August 15, 2014 Posted August 15, 2014 He struggles vs inswinger and Kohli vs outswingers. Perfect combo, whatever the bowler bowls the pair will ensure we lose one wicket between them
Insidious Posted August 15, 2014 Posted August 15, 2014 Nothing happen to his technique....just lacking confidence....infact the whole batting order lacking confidence
asterix Posted August 15, 2014 Posted August 15, 2014 Rahul Drawid... Is he still mentoring the batsmen in thus tour? Looks like he too is getting the hang of making easy monies without doing anything constructive just like Fletcher, Dawes and co.....
Number Posted August 15, 2014 Posted August 15, 2014 What did Rahul Dravid do to these guys as a mentor on this tour. They were better without him in SA and NZ.

suraj Posted August 15, 2014 Posted August 15, 2014 Also doesn't help that every time our openers don't put even semblamce of start
gslv Posted August 15, 2014 Posted August 15, 2014 manju's second coming. now the dead's will be raised & the world will end.

He also did commentary for BBC radio but don't think he is in England no more as not heard him recently. Don't blame him as who wants to watch this shambles.
Sarkar Posted August 15, 2014 Posted August 15, 2014 This guy hailed as next dravid he eats so many balls in test cricket still cant play long innings
vijay50 Posted August 15, 2014 Posted August 15, 2014 This guy hailed as next dravid he eats so many balls in test cricket still cant play long innings More like Manju than Dravid. Remember Manju also made a 200 against pakistan.

Now find someone else to blame for our batsmen's debacles.
