vayuu1 Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 The team management goes by past record Which is why I have no sympathy for them, when the whole bcci is being hounded by lodha panel. Sent from my vivo 1601 using Tapatalk speedheat 1 Link to comment

maniac Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 big test for our lower order....as much as I want these 2 to carry on followed by Nair.....every run scored by Ashwin,Saha etc or even Ishant,Umesh in this situation is one step closer to victory...big test for Nair too...big occasion and pressure situation.

Just go to his cricinfo page and check the scorecard of matches he has played in India Link to comment

Just go to his cricinfo page and check the scorecard of matches he has played in India Averages 40 with his best in India Not too great but not that bad either Sure he cant play on rank turners,very few can.Overall hes still amongst our best along with Kohli and Pujara Laaloo 1 Link to comment

That's why I asked you to check the scorecards of matches where he scored runs, those were easier conditions to bat, haven't seen a top order batsman who is as clueless against spin as rahane Link to comment
New guy Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 He is a gem and not going anywhere Link to comment
kira Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Although a good innings, but a 50 after so many failures isn't great Link to comment
sandeep Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Its not that Nair got a duck or a golden duck. Batsmen will get out. And look bad doing so. Its not the end of the world. But what Mr 300 did there exhibited very poor temperament and shoddy thinking. Foolish airy drive first ball against the new ball? Especially when the wicket of a set batsman has shown the danger that swing poses? In a game situation where absolutely every run counts? I wouldn't forgive that from even the likes of Jadeja or Ashwin, let alone a specialist batsman. Poor game awareness. Learn from it. Or GTFO. Could have easily been the moment that cost us this test match and this series if the aussies had been able to pull off the chase. schumibest 1 Link to comment
Sidhoni Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 ^ that ball was swinging in at 154 kmph. Nearly unplayable. Vilander 1 Link to comment
