Big Boss Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 That wicket was all batsman's fault. Should have stayed on leg stump and clipped it for 4. Swing won't have mattered. Anyways great innings by Head. Completely exploited England's tired bowling lineup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It only helped that there was a Supreme Court run-Committee of Administrators, who relented to each and every demand of his — some very fair and some unfair. And then came a time when the traditional administrators were back in the business along with a very powerful secretary and a president, who knows a thing about being a successful captain himself. He only survived this long because there was no BCCI all thanks to milords. I mean anyone would feel pissed off if selectors were serving Anushka tea and biskut like waiters or when she was the only female allowed to accompany team india when they visited some high profile event abroad. And lol he even had a falling out with shahstri. Quote If grapevine is to be believed, Kohli, towards the end of the England series, didn’t even get along with the Shastri-led erstwhile support staff. It wasn’t as if they had any ugly fights but it was just that Kohli and Shastri, towards the end of it all, didn’t see eye to eye but since the latter was already mentally done with the job, he bade his time and left with his head held high. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

san_Assassin Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 (edited) and there was a time people used to compare him with Sachin. his egoistic attitude is reason for his downfall Edited December 9, 2021 by san_Assassin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtheK Posted December 9, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 Next step should be to drop him from T20 team, he honestly does not belong in the T20 setup, we just can't have so many similar moulds of player. Hopefully he shuts up now and bats the way he used to, been what like two years he hit a century? Hopefully it comes in the first test against SA! Also not a huge fan of Rohit being made the ODI captain, T20 I get it with the WC less then a year around, for ODI it should have ideally been rahul or maybe even Jadeja, that guy has served the Indian cricket selflessly for a long time.

silentassassin Posted December 10, 2021 Report Share Posted December 10, 2021 This whole captaincy thing is being portrayed as a huge controversy. People blaming BCCI & Ganguly for the decision. I'm a huge virat fan, and i totally think right decision was made. You cant get knocked out in the 1st round of World Cup you are hosting and not have consequences. Once Virat quit T20 captaincy it was obvious, he would lose white ball captaincy as well. IMO Rohit is perfect choice, he's definitely gonna play 2023 WC. He can quit the captaincy post the WC and we can groom someone for the future. Only thing is, BCCI should have had a press release or a small video explaining the captaincy change, instead of doing it over a tweet. Losing captaincy is not end of world. Sachin was not even informed he was being sacked as captain, atleast virat got prior warning. Just has to put his head down and continue being the best batsman now.

KnackChap Posted December 10, 2021 Report Share Posted December 10, 2021 Anti Bcci trending on social media is no big deal. It's almost certainly done by his and his wife PR team. Virat should tread carefully else might even get dropped from the team soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easwaran was the selection before, performed so well with India A and they go and select Panchal. Rohit might be out for 5-6 months as his injury is serious and may need surgery. Will miss ODI too in SA. Would be interesting who will be named Captain now for that time. I am afraid they may select KL Rahul ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
