i just wonder how many people on this forum will back a batsman whose stats after his 4 years in international cricket read-
20 tests 31 innings 1085 runs
I also wonder how many people on this forum will support a batsman whose stats after 5 years in international cricket read-
19 tests 33 innings 834 runs

Problem is after this test
by Parika Gupta on Oct 02, 2016 09:58 PM  | Hide replies

In Kolkata, where Rohit always scores, he is reserved for another 20 tests.

Problem is, the moment he steps out of the sub continent, and against class bowling of South Africa, England, Australia and Pakistan he will fail.

Rohit shoots down 'media claims' of him being under pressure.

With uncle Rajiv Shukla to back him, he is never under pressure!

No Pujara has not lived up to the potential, in the overseas.

Any day I'll take Rahane over him.

Kumble-Kohli will not back him in test matches outside the sub continent, because will not be able to perform there.

Plus Saha too is great prospect in the test matches. He is a gritty player.

Rohit sharma no merit

It was Bhuvi and Saha who put India on top in the 2nd test.
Rohit sharma.. stop the paid publicity stunt. You are no test player.

44-4 and even 106-6. If India would have got bundled for even 130-140 it would have become even contest atleast. The advantage of lead would have gone. But now its almost sure victory. Dont demean the value of his inning. Tough condition he batted well. We don't remeber Gavaskar for 205 on flat bombay wicket against WI but for 96 on rank turner in his last test. He is now fitting well into team. Once KL Rahul is back as opener in place of Dhawan who is niether performer and not talented, we have one of the best balanced Indian team.

talented batsmen are given many chances...nothing wrong in that....even the talented batsmen of earlier generation like srt and vvs were given so many chances...they consistently failed for 4 years in international cricket...but because they were considered talented they were given too many chances...

In India or outside India? If what I have read is true, as kid, he smacked the greatest leg spinner of that time, Abdul Qadir for quite afew sixes, in Pakistan, plus scored an 80 odd inNew Zealand, in his very first series there, against Richard Hadlee.
His best performance were against quality bowling, ouside the sub continent.

My question was, when did Sachin fail consistently for 4 years in international cricket.

Because you have said above , I quote, ".even the talented batsmen of earlier generation like srt and vvs were given so many chances...they consistently failed for 4 years in international cricket."

As far as VVS is concerned, he was forced to open, in the absence of a regular opener and kept failing, but the moment he was made no.3 he started scoring, rest is history.

be what it may...I wonder how many people on this forum will support a batsman whose stats after 5 years in international cricket read-
19 tests 33 innings 834 runs

btw the captain who was forcing him to open was your fave captain ganguly...

My favourite? How do you know? He is the one who brought names like Dhoni, Zaheer, Sehwag, VVS to the fore.

The only under whose captaincy India beat Pakistan in Pakistan, may be from now till eternity.

Ganguly always experimented, he forced Sehwag to open, and it paid off like so many other things.
