NareshK Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 Rohit will enjoy playing 2015 WC in Australia because pitches there have bounce. :two_thumbs_up:
Lord Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 Agree but its survival of the fittest. Rohit unexpectedly came in to open, against all our wishes. Yet he delivered, not just with runs but by also looking good as well i.e not lucky knock. So rohit has to stay as opener. Then straight choice between rahane and pujara. Pujara is pure class needs to play. Rahane can be first reserve for any spot that comes open from 1 to 6 in case of injury or rotation Rahane should get more opportunities purely bcoz he has been benched for too long.Pujara can come in once Sharma is back to his failing ways:--D
Lord Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 Rohit will enjoy playing 2015 WC in Australia because pitches there have bounce. :two_thumbs_up: playing pull shot in India is easier than in Australia.even Raina managessome here:giggle:
King Tendulkar Posted January 23, 2013 Author Posted January 23, 2013 Rahane should get more opportunities purely bcoz he has been benched for too long.D Dont agree. India team is not a charity(although it last few years it seems to be this case). It should be a ruthless pursuit of victory. So if it is thought pujara and rohit combo is best opening pair, then thats what should be.
CG Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 playing pull shot in India is easier than in Australia.even Raina managessome here:giggle: Rohit Has good control over pull shot and short ball has never been a problem for him,He along with dhoni are the best pullers in india.
NareshK Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 playing pull shot in India is easier than in Australia.even Raina managessome here:giggle: Its just a matter of adjusting to extra bounce. As long as the bounce is even, backfoot players will enjoy batting in Australia. Ask Laxman. :nice:
King Tendulkar Posted January 23, 2013 Author Posted January 23, 2013 playing pull shot in India is easier than in Australia.even Raina managessome here:giggle: Raina just paddles it. Rohit savages it
Lord Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 Its just a matter of adjusting to extra bounce. As long as the bounce is even' date=' backfoot players will enjoy batting in Australia. Ask Laxman. :nice:[/quote'] Rohit pulls of the front foot.and he doesnt keep it down.its more a hook than a pull.
Lord Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 Raina just paddles it. Rohit savages it lol we are talking about Raina,getting bat to those is an achievement for him:giggle:
CG Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 Rohit pulls of the front foot.and he doesnt keep it down.its more a hook than a pull. Hook shot is more near the head.Rohit hooks well also.He has time to play short ball like ponting.Who also played of the front foot.
Old guy Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 if kohli can be good then there is no reason why rohit cant they both dont have perfect technique but its just matter of working out ur strengths lets see now he has confidence can he repeat good performance?
Lord Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 Hook shot is more near the head.Rohit hooks well also.He has time to play short ball like ponting.Who also played of the front foot. Ponting had great eye n quick reflexes. but yeah hes not bad at it.his main problem is swing.specially in swing.it moves in Aus too
Lord Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 if kohli can be good then there is no reason why rohit cant they both dont have perfect technique but its just matter of working out ur strengths lets see now he has confidence can he repeat good performance? his attitude is biggest problem.I watched his interview n he was like whats the big deal,I do this everyday:giggle:
Old guy Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 his attitude is biggest problem.I watched his interview n he was like whats the big deal' date='I do this everyday:giggle:[/quote'] :hysterical: oh well he is better then gauti anyday for me
rkt.india Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 too early to write off Rahane imo Rahane was always a limited ability player.
Lord Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 Rahane was always a limited ability player. he is good imo
Raghav_12 Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 lol we are talking about Raina' date='getting bat to those is an achievement for him:giggle:[/quote'] :giggle:
rkt.india Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 he is good imo Rahane is a very restricted played in terms of shots. He does not have leg side game at all. So, he will have to make his game tight which looked all over in the ODIs he played this season.
rkt.india Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 his attitude is biggest problem.I watched his interview n he was like whats the big deal' date='I do this everyday:giggle:[/quote'] Because he is such a gifted played. A lot of things look very easy to him but actually its a different thing executing them in a match and that is where temperament comes in to play as a gifted played like him can get into complacency and laziness.
rkt.india Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 I would like Pujara and Rohit as an opening combo and give them enough matches to settle in there. Coach needs to concentrate on them as how to enable them to do the job.
