carnish Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Yes. He is. Dhoni is not a specialist batsmen and at test level' date=' Dhoni wont find a place in any team just as a specialist batsman bar Bangladesh or Zimbabwe.[/quote'] Ok then try him in ODIs .. will be better than Rohit has been over the years I bet.. calling him a joke and discarding him is like discarding VK just because he doesnot have pace.. But then again you have your own opinion .. I have my own. :om: Link to comment
jind Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 P.S thread merged title fail didn't keep original title : Kohli Kohli Oye :fail: Dude, I realize you have something against Kohli or just love Raina so much that you hate all his competitors. Kohli played a great knock in perth before scoring that century on the so called flattest wicket. dude, he likes Kohli as well...has kohli in his avatar...kohli is starting out in Tests and has done well in the last few outings.

Jersey #10 Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Raina is the best of the new generation Link to comment
jind Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Top order batsmen (1-3) like Kohli score centuries where as lower middle order batsmen (5-7) like Raina score fifties. Simple really, the more balls you have to face, the more runs you can make in ODIs. Thus, two very different batting roles. Kohli has already scored more runs than Raina. What has worked in Kohli's favor is that he's got a top order batting spot very early in his career and due to his consistency, he's made that spot his own. Link to comment
Cricket Tragic Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 all tamil nadu players are suspect ' date='they play on really flat tracks at Chepauk and pile on huge runs and look completely like fish out of water when the ball starts to do something.[/quote'] The funny thing is that Chepauk produces one of the best test wickets in the country. Before Badri, you had Sriram. A domestic monster. Talks of Sharath also making the team back then. Ramesh had a reasonable test career even though he didn't move his feet. He didn't look clueless like Badri. Link to comment

Sachin=GOD Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Sheer brilliance from this man in the last few matches. Link to comment
Ultimate_Game Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Is there a more destructive batsman in the game today than Kohli when set? Kohli when set and when he goes beyond 50 is in a different world altogether. The guy makes the batting so effortless that it seems as if you are watching a video game I have never seen such dominance by a batsman ever and it doesn't even matter who the bowlers are and what they bowl. This guy is special Link to comment
