Hooda never seemed like a 6-hitter to me. Pant and Kishan are more aerial players I think. tweaker and SUMO 2 Link to comment

Didn't do much at Sunrisers if I recall right. I know that he has the build, but I felt that Pant, Kishan (and even Lomror) are more of six hitters than he is. Just to be clear, of course I don't think that six hitting is the only thing that matters, esp in FC and Tests. His consistency has been excellent this season... if he'd converted that 98 to a 100, he'd have 4 of them already. sscomp32, SUMO and tweaker 3 Link to comment

He is certainly powerful and used to his a lot of sixes at U19 level. IN one of the U19 matches in a triseries played in India before 2014 under 19 WC, he did score 100 odd in 60 odd bowls with 5-6 sixes. Edited November 20, 2016 by rkt.india Link to comment

I have a feeling maybe he's trying to score more runs along the ground this season then, because Pant and Kishan have scored an obscenely high number of 6's. tweaker 1 Link to comment
MCcricket Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 It's laughable when people talk about Hooda, he is clearly a gifted bat, n hits big n without much effort, Pant is more like Yuvi a big swing Link to comment

He is a big guy, with great timing, not a slogger or hitter like Yusuf, he will play for India n he is as far from Raina as you can get, Raina's esp was the hitting arc, where he could at his wish hit balls between square of off to leg, Raina does not have this guys power Link to comment

That's what I thought. His 6's and 4's in the U19 WC featured lots of shots that were very reminiscent of Yuvraj and Raina. 2 minutes ago, rkt.india said: yes a mix of Raina and Yuvi, shoerter in height like Raina but more powerful and better timer like Yuvraj. Amongst present domestic batsmen, I wonder whose batting is closest to Sehwag... was it Iyer last season? - I never saw him play. Link to comment

MCcricket Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 Pant reminds me of Yuvi, haven't seen then play together, n we can see, Sarfaraz, Hooda, Ishan, Pant, Jaggi. Forme guys I want to see play for India soon are K Yadav, Aniket, Sarfaraz, M Agarwal, Mukund, Nathu, Sangwan, Hooda Link to comment
express bowling Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 (edited) Deepak Hooda has an average of 57.5 at a SR of 66 with 6 hundreds after playing 21 FC matches over 3 seasons. Now, these are serious numbers for a guy who has played 33 innings spanning 3 seasons. How is he against short deliveries and how is his off-stump game ?

SUMO Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 (edited) deepak hooda looked like a hack at best a good hack (like maxwell, miller) in the ipl. but his current ranji season is surprising to me, is he really that good technically to average high fifties. With big hitting he will become a dhoni with good technique Edited November 20, 2016 by SUMO tweaker 1 Link to comment
fineleg Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 I doubt if Hooda can cut it at Test level. He may be like Raina at Test level. ODI yes. Link to comment

His real value will be...if he can fill the fifth bowling spot.... Unfortunately, he didn't bowl enough.....looks like he has given up on his bolwing... how is his fielding?

Ankit_sharma03 Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 After one good perfomance , its all been a downhill for Samson. U cant get selected like that , specially now with the emergence of Pant Link to comment
