JaFanatic Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 quickest to score 12 odi hundreds!!:yay::two_thumbs_up: Link to comment
tatters Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Couldn't give a **** about Sehwag. He was dropped on 0 and 24 and skied one when he was on 90, not to mention the 3 play-and-misses right at the start. Sehwag's an idiot who will only score if given several chances. That's not the mark of a great player. Kohli is in a league of his own in terms of promising young batsmen. But he needs to start playing some Test matches - unfortunately the powers that be at the BCCI seem to prefer **** lucrative ODI tours to proper Test cricket. Link to comment

It doesn't matter, point is he got close and missed it. Run out of all things :banghead: Link to comment
India-KXIP fan Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Well done. Atm Kohli is better than VVS and should start at 3 in tests rather than 5. Link to comment
Utalk Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 This guy excites me like Tendulkar and Lara did in their early years. Best batting talent to emerge in 20 years. Should be playing more test cricket. Link to comment
Manny_Pacquiao Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 clearly india's batsman in ODIs now. the numbers he is putting up during his run of form are comparable to anything we saw from tendulkar and ganguly. they should make him open the innings. the team's best batsman should play as many overs as possible. sehwag is finished anyway.

King Khan Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Kohli is only living cricketer who can break SRT records. Link to comment
SLICKR392 Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 12 centuries in ODIs, a century and few fifties in TESTS (more 100s to come). Its not the number of matches he has scored and hit lot of tons but its his age and his matured game...he has only got better in his game. Infact, he learns from his mistakes, which is pretty rare with the rest of the team..especially our bowlers. Link to comment
cowboysfan Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 who else thinks he should be the next captain after Dhoni in a few years.I dont trust either Viru or Gambhir at all(plus they have injury problems) .Kohli is the logical choice. Link to comment

Make him the captain and all his batting abilities will go flying away out of the window Link to comment

SLICKR392 Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Well done. Atm Kohli is better than VVS and should start at 3 in tests rather than 5. If a batsmen scores a lot of tons and hits a couple of centuries doesn't mean he can be a #3 in Test cricket. Kohli is a brilliant player, no doubt, but he is more of a #4 batsmen as I had said earlier. We are still in search for a good if not solid No.3. Take Pakistan's test batting line up for example, Younis is a much better, experienced, classy and has got a lot of runs/tons behind him but Azhar Ali is a much better No.3 batsmen that he can be IMO. No.3 is not just about scoring runs its about being a batsmen who can act as a good opener after one of the opener has dismissed early, someone who can deal with the new ball and also take the role of a very good and solid middle order player. By being solid, I don't mean that the No.3 needs to be an ultra defensive batsman. This is (also) for the people who think Kohli deserves that No.3 spot. I would rather have a Pujara at No.3 and Kohli at No.4 (once SRT hangs his boots). Link to comment
