But  he is kinda a Dwarf...too short for international cricket...his keeping will have limitations because of this.

against pace bowlers practically in every over once a keeper has to dive and collect-- his reach is too short.

keepers like gilly took catches that were not just going to first slip but some times even further...

I feel against pacers specially genuine fast bowlers one needs a very good keeper and I feel karthik/parthiv/even DHoni are not good keeper..even saha dropped a chance.

 

I am telling you before the TEST Match it self.. u just watch the keeping , u will find him finding it difficult to keep to Umesh /shammi and ISHANT will be too TUF to keep for the Dwarf Parthiv.

I am sorry for calling him dwarf ..he is just short.

Wicket-keepers are traditionally short. Shorter wicket keeper are better standing up to spin Taibu, Moin Khan, Latif, Adam parore, Kaluwitharna, G Jones, etc. Even Mccullum was not that tall.

Most of these are 5 8" or more...

Even Dhoni is 5 9"

But parthiv cud be 5 3"

Anyone remember David Williams of West Indies ,hardly 5 feet.., kept brilliantly to the fast bowlers of the late 80s & 90s

yeah he was around same height as Parthiv. But much quicker, and a brilliant anticipator. Parthiv has slow reflexes, hard hands, low agility and poor technique.

Taibu was not 5'8.

[vishalvirsingh]

let me cut the crap and straight come to the point....

Decision of bringing  parthiv is Wrong and not a long term decision . 

I am confident that he will do less than decent job behind the stumps.

.

But I am confident that he will score runs.

still I will say he will need to be dumped as I don't hv too much confidence in his keeping to fast bowlers.

So when would failure not cause havoc for Pant and what would be the reason for it.This guy has played IPL and under 19 world cup and you do not have option of giving him a break in T20s or Odis has Dhoni is not even thinking of retiring. So when would be okay for giving him a chance, his form with bat looks great this season why not give him a chance when his confidence is high.

Pant can play as specialist batsman in LOIs

 

Pant has played 8 FC matches,no Irani or Board president game in it.No A tours nothing

 

We cant a 19 yr old based on half a Ranji season 

 

plus his main job is keeping which by all accounts is average at best

 

Parthiv himself is an example why you don't blood people early in Test cricket.Imagine Pant dropping Cook or Root and them winning it for England.Dont think a 19 yr old can handle that

Seems to me his best bet is to open - but there's already No-hit, Dhawan, and KLR. I'm not sure whether he has the single taking ability that is crucial at 5 and 6 (of course, the big hits are equally important, which he can do).

So ,we don't have enough keeper's ? that we need to call patel.agian ?

Seems that a way since they are either very inexperienced or equally bad at keeping

Kumble talking about Parthiv, Karthik and Pant " On picking Parthiv: Parthiv has been really consistent, both in his keeping as well as batting. Yes, Rishabh [Pant] has certainly shown the exuberance and what a young cricketer can bring in. He has shown a lot of his batting skills. He has obviously got a lot of runs this season in the domestic circuit. But Parthiv was chosen for his keeping skills and his experience. Regarding Dinesh [Karthik], at the moment I don't think Dinesh is keeping wickets for Tamil Nadu, and I am not sure why that is the case."

We did that for Kohli. Pant is already out batting Kohli in domestic cricket.

Parthia's keeping skills! It is like saying Jadeja is being picked for his batting skills.

I am not sure any wicket keeper has made come back like this in the last 30 years. After he left we had DK then Dhoni for a long time (all his test career) and Saha. In the last 12 years he has played 1 test.  I am not sure how Kumble can call him "experienced". His only meaningful experience was in 2004 which was a disaster. 

[Cricketics]

Man, regardless of how Parthiv does in this coming test, there are going to be plenty of memes floating all over the net on him. I can see few memes already. He is going to be trending for the next 10 days at least.

I am telling you before the TEST Match it self.. u just watch the keeping , u will find him finding it difficult to keep to Umesh /shammi and ISHANT will be too TUF to keep for the Dwarf Parthiv.

I am sorry for calling him dwarf ..he is just short.

parthiv could not keep to umesh Yadav .. I knew he will fail against umesh .. see I predicted it.

[putrevus]

How many catches has PP dropped so far .
