Undisputed chap rooting for undisputed hack rohit.

[undisputed chap]

I am just saying rohit deserves equal opportunities as what kohli got earlier on.It takes time to adjust to test matches. Rohit deserves to be in the team till the end of aus tour to see if he cuts it or not. Rohit, rahane &pujara all average close to 60 in ranji trophy & they all deserve equal opportunities to succeed in tests.

Why not give Samson a go instead of nohit?

Not at the expense of a bowler. Kohli got dropped almost immediately before staging a comeback. Besides Kohli's inhumane one day performances do play a part. He is pretty much rated by all sundries as the next best thing for India. Most of the time he backed that.Rohit sharma on the other hand failed more than he succeeded. Can't really compare them. this guy is a loose cannon. I would rather have an additional bowler in place of him. He will get his chances. But rightnow to get the balance right we need to get rid of one batsman. obvious choice is Rohit Sharma.

rohit is consistently inconsistent and has a poor technique the gap between bat and pad is too big for a 90 year bat.

I am no parosi :hitler: ask others but I am not delusional either like some posters here who blame the captain for everything from our pathetic trundlers to our gutless batsmen & good for nothing fielders .

Remember Rohit is a class batsman so might play. Unfortunately the team fails to realize that that class is his belief that he will fail again

[wanted_desi]

Seriously all this because they want Nohit in team :O

Definitely better than tendulkar-2 Rohit Sharma.

How quickly people forget! Tendulkar scored 273 runs in 4 matches with 2 half tons (highest 91) in 2011. Kohli has scored just 101 in 3 matches with a highest score of 39 (no half tons) and Pujara has scored 190 in 3 matches with a highest score of 55 (1 half ton). Both of them are averaging lower than what Tendulkar did in that series. Still they are better? Okay! Hope they improve in this match and hit tons. India doesn't have any hope otherwise.

whoa, He didn't mean Tendulkar :giggle: he is talking about Rohit Sharma (who is rated as the next tendulkar, tendulkar 2.0, mumbai protege etc.,)

But why should Rohit be compared to Kohli and Pujara? His position is not even fixed in test side.
