Ankit_sharma03 Posted November 5, 2015 Posted November 5, 2015 But parthiv is a pathetic keeper, worse than Rahul. Rahul did keep in SL, don't forget that and did it well.Wen did u c patel keeping in Int cricket last . Dnt judge him by his last series in 2004, 11 yrs ago.N how can he b worse than Kl rahul who havent kept much since his u-19 days. KL rahul kept in lanka for 1 match IF one matches has to be criteria There be a lot of bizzare things happ.Bounce wasnt uneven in that test. Which will b in this test series.

sourab10forever Posted November 5, 2015 Posted November 5, 2015 Uttappa is brushing his keeping skill in order to play for India...CM gautam is very upset because he has to give up is keeping gloves for uttappa.

sourab10forever Posted November 5, 2015 Posted November 5, 2015 Possible optionsOhjaSamsonCM gautamDon't see anyone else.
sourab10forever Posted November 5, 2015 Posted November 5, 2015 BTW its not only India. Every test side is facing the same problem.Not even a single world class keeper in sight.Chandimal is doing well and Taylor seems good.But will have to wait and watch.
jusarrived Posted November 5, 2015 Posted November 5, 2015 Hows that Bharat guy ? havent followed him this season .
shibnarayan Posted November 5, 2015 Posted November 5, 2015 Aditya Tare looks good as a keeper as well as no 5 batsman for india.
express bowling Posted November 5, 2015 Posted November 5, 2015 (edited) In test matches, first and foremost, we need a good keeper. Since we are playing with 5 specialist batsmen, we need a proper no.6 batsman who is either a good keeper or can play as the 5th bowler. If we take someone like Pandya at no.6 then I am ok with Saha at 7. If Pandya is not ready to play internationals yet then Saha looks a bit weak at no.6 and, till the time we get a good keeper-batsman, Naman might be a better bet at no.6. Both Saha and Naman are good keepers. Edited November 6, 2015 by express bowling
adi B Posted November 5, 2015 Posted November 5, 2015 Tab tak test match haaro?nahi,tab tak 4 bowlers and 6 proper batsmen khilao doccricket 1
Malcolm Merlyn Posted November 5, 2015 Author Posted November 5, 2015 nahi,tab tak 4 bowlers and 6 proper batsmen khilaoWahi to bol raha hoon. doccricket 1
G_B_ Posted November 5, 2015 Posted November 5, 2015 Saha lacks talent, Ojha is brain dead.not many options. I know people say Samson, but he is not good enough as a test keeper. doccricket 1
CG Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 Every test u cannot have such threads. Saha batted well in srilanka. You got to give atleast some time and then move on.
tweaker Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 I think next season Ankush Bains will be ready for international cricket..He seems far better than Samson.
sensible-indian Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 Bad test for him. Can't be bad at keeping in test matches.
India-KXIP fan Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 (edited) Lokesh Rahul should be made as a keeper. Take him to nets and brush his keeping skills. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk I lold. You want someone that just "brushed up" their keeping skills to keep wickets for Indian test side? So that he can give you 10-20 runs more average with the bat? Yeah good idea....until he drops someone on 10 and they make a game changing double hundred. Edited November 9, 2015 by India-KXIP fan
vvvslaxman Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 He is a fill in at this point until we find a solid WK. Nobody is ready completely. So we are stuck with him. I don't deny he is merely an average player overall. doccricket 1
fineleg Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 (edited) Saha cannot bat much, so he has to keep excellent to compensate. I dont think he is an "excellent" keeper like Kirmani or Alec Stewart or even like Kiran More or Sadanand Viswanath. If Saha drops catches and/or misses stumpings, then he has no batting to compensate for those. Prolly Naman Ojha can atleast compensate a little bit. No good wk-batsmen around, so gotta choose between Saha, Ojha and CM Gautam. (Samson get him in ODIs first). Edited November 9, 2015 by fineleg
Anik Krishna Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 I think he gets pick by Bengali Quota for Indian National Team
