jusarrived Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Though I still think there is a lot of room for further improvement in his game , if he can take care of that could be our best Test player in 2-3 years and may be the second best batsmen overall behind Virat . Link to comment

SUMO Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 He has ceiling as high as joe root but he has already lost so many matches due to injury Link to comment

He is a natural stroke-player too. I agree. His defense is not very strong/perfect, but being technically sound is not everything. More importantly - a bit like VVS in some Tests - he seems to do well on low-scoring pitches (at least vs spin), which augurs well. Edited July 6, 2017 by Vijy Link to comment

I don't have an issue with his defense per se but he needs to cut out those loose shots outside the off stump. Link to comment
WC2011INDIA Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Sure....if he remains injury free. Link to comment
Pollack Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Missing him in the team already. Would rate him 9.5/10. He is a quality batsman and frankly don't want him to cut down any shots. His attacking style of cricket would be a refreshing change in this team where everyone wants to save their own arse and don't think collectively in the interest of team. Laaloo 1 Link to comment

The good thing for him is , hes one off Virats favourites . Tattoos , beard , fancy hairdos , RCB and the fact that he can bat is just a bonus ;) Link to comment
