As a captain kohli could not make RCB win in so many attempts, how will he be able win wc 2019 for us? plus he also lost one day series against england for first time and also CT 2017. Rohit is a better bet as a captain for WC 2019.

Dhantannan, you give your comment only on Saina Nehwal and Sidhu,s performance on Badmington.
We have very rarely played well in England.The player we have chosen one to four are all out of form. Opener Vijay, Sekher Dhawan, Tejeswar Pujar, Ajinka Rahane,Virat Himself(always a mismatch in English pitch),So there is hardly any player who can play. The players who have been selected are all out of form batsmen. I don't know how long we will persist with Hardik Pandiya. He may be good as a T-20 player but not as a Test player. In fact the team send to England are under performers.
Ashwin should Captain India, Kumble as Team Coach with Zaheer as Bowling Coach for fast bowlers and Dravid as batting coach. Sack Vijay, Dhawan and DK with immediate effect

you have sacked almost everybody except the biggest culprit Shastri, who masterminded in removing the most eligible coach Anil Kumble.And made Kohali dance to his tune
Instead of giving credit to the England team, who are certainly much much better than India and beat the latter hollow and square in all departments of game, Kohli is doing introspection(sic!)!!! It is the right time to change the Captain if World Cup 2019 is tha aim now!!

Give chance to rishab pant , thakur, umesh yadav ,karun nair Forget about murli, kartik, pujara, dhawan ,Rahane,Ishant ang kuldeep yadav for future three tests . we are already on receiving end, let the newcomers do something. it appears Ashwin a better batsman than murli, Rahane, \ pujara. let him open the innings ,this will accomidate another batsman.
he himself is super flop since 2014. last test it was due to dropped catches he scored century.that reduced englands victory margin. this test no dropped catches and india is totally exposed. we lost CT 2017 at lords and now test match. kohli is more focussed on anushka than indian team selection. ig kohli remains captain, WC 2019 is doomed.
Nothing great to decipher. We should develop a test match playing team like the one for T20 AND ODI. The test match players should not play other versions and they should be suitably rewarded to curb their ODI / T20 attitude. He should bowl or bat for a day or two non-stop. Else, forget Tests.
