Lets agree and appreciate what Rohit, Virat, Ashwin and Jadeja have done for Indian cricket, but their career is on the downward slide, it happens even to the greatest of them all , so nothing to feel bad about it , but we have to move on to the next generation ....
What is the guarantee, if next generation will make you win the game? How many next generation players were in the team ... Stupid thought. This is a just a game. New Zealand performed well. Never listen to stupid media.... There is no substitute for experienced player. Media having no spine... No brain. They just spit brainless thing.
i don't know...why you are bringing Ashwin and Jadeja name here....they were the one who saved India against Bangladesh very recently. They are the one who are performing regularly.....Virat has got really a long rope, hope some one talks abt it....
Rohit and Kohli are finished. They should be nudged into retirement. New players can be given exposure in Mumbai. Unfortunately hero worship is a disease that plagues India. So both have been selected for the BGT. Ashwin and Jadeja should be gradually phased out over the next 6-12 months.
I challenge Rohit Sharma to play 120-150 balls in one single stretch, don't make any runs, just play that number of balls. He can't, he looks confused while batting, he looks distracted and loses concentration soon, probably it's because of less Red Ball exposure (lacking Test Temperament). Same with Virat Kohli. He can't play Spin and that's has become a fact (unfortunately). Virat also looks distracted. It's alright if you guys (RoKo) aren't finding the same excitement in Test Matches, but please give chances to others. I understand they've reached the end of the career and might have gotten bored of cricket, but please don't block the space and let others play. You guys (RoKo) can go take care of your family and kids, that has become their priority unfortunately. To Media: Stop blaming pitch EVERYTIME, that this pitch was unplayable and mysterious etc. Indian Presenters ALWAYS blame the pitch for the continuous poor performance of Indian Batters for the past 4-5 years. As if only Indian Team is the most "unluckiest" one to get difficult pitches everywhere. How come Indian Lower order and bowlers have been scoring or even opposition team score runs on the same pitch? Pakistan got rid of "star" players and their cricket has improved suddenly because younger blood has that "hunger" to make a name which "star" players lack. Indian Star players spend more time shooting for advertisements than playing practice matches.
Far more competitive? Surprised how Nikhil has understiamed New Zealand. The same Nz beat u in Wtc final. India doesn't event compete against Nz in Nz.
Many time Virat tried unnecessary quick singles in test matches and hot his partner run out. Rohit never had technique to play the test cricket. Players like Sai Sudarshan should come in test team.
Exactly why pant got runout in 2nd innings of 2nd test of NZ Silly single doesn’t exist in test match Already pant is injured 3 days time to hit 300 runs Silly single screwedup
It is primarily because of Rohit and Virat's failure. Both averages approx 25 in 10 innings. Their individual averages have plummeted sharply. Both must resign gracefully.
Multiple issues for Indian team 1.Coaching team is in Probation period. Not sure except GG & MM, others are unknown names as talented players and a??? 2.Rohit, VK, Ashwin, Jadeja have delivered enough and are aging. ROKO are clearly not doing any self analysis of their failures in last 10-12 tests and surely beyond correction, it looks 3.Talented youngsters are good & need handholding and sharpen skills. Coaches capability being a????, hardwork alone will lead to success 4.Pant, Bhumra are great talent no doubt and their consistency can be notches higher than now. Will above happen fast????? Patience is key. Cheers.
India batting was a failure but more than that bowling was a concern the tactics on the field was awful spreading fields allowing new batsman to get settled was a more concerning point
@@VivekSingh-vv1nq but biased pr will never get to the point instead they will divert your focus to other things...the same thing done by the management last night by announcing the team for bgt
On the first test IND could not stand against Kiwis pace; then on the second test IND could not stand against Kiwis spin. So on the third test IND surrender without facing any ball.😂😅😊
Absolutely. India got lucky winning against England as the English pressed their own self destruct button every game. NZ did not do it and outplayed India in their own game.
Not only Rohit and Kohli, this test team is full of selfish players who care about personal milestones. Rahul and Pant also should be relegated, they need to prove their worth before being picked up again.
Rohit Sharma, who, especially as captain as purely ineffective & lost, just missed a century in both innings: by 100 in the first and 92 in the second. Look at all his prior scores, too. KYA UKHAAD LIYA ISS ADMI NE? Sharma, Kohli, KLR, Gill, & arguably Bumrah sab ke sab BIGDE HUE NAWAB HAIN, and they most certainly do not have the grace to step down---YEH HARAMKHOR APNI APNI KURSI KE KEEDE HAIN. IMO, they need to be let go immediately---we have a large pool of talent waiting in the wings! Kohli and Sharma are simply two old men, who should walk back to the pavilion!
Test Match is a Test of Players Abitity, Skills and Talent on how Long one can stay at the crease.. Time is not an issue and Runs are not a criteria as it will start comming once you tired and frustrate the opposition bowlers.. The Test is How long one can stay in middle..
Rohit is a disgrace for shamelessly clinging to captaincy while failing serially. He doesn't have any technique to counter pace and spin, his eyes and reflexes are failing and brain is confused. He is also unfit. He can do India and himself a service by resigning otherwise he is leading the team to disaster in Australia.
There's something else no one is talking about - compare the Indian team up to the T20 WC, and then compare the performances of the same team since the WC - the series in Sri Lanka, the loss in Zimbabwe..... Is GG part of the problem, maybe?
Have been following this series from New Zealand. Loved the way NZ played. They are much better team. NZ was unlucky to lose 2019 World Cup..if they really lost...here in NZ cricket is not the most popular sport but Rugby is. Just 5 million population and 20 Olympics medal including 10 Gold this year.. Well done New Zealand..
Rohit Sharma was never a test cricketer.He was always in the team because of its performance on flat wickets in odi.virat and rohit time is arrived to leave test cricket and play only odi.
Problem with all of us is that we cling onto past performance for eternity. 4k days of winning streak classic example. This loss was on the boards, when BCCI keeps playing players who are past their Prime.If Everyone wants to play IPL then we shouldn't be playing Test. Test players are different Breed. Rahul Dravid, Pujara..
We need players coming through the hard grind of domestic cricket who know how to play spin well. It is not all about attack, but defense against spin bowling. Look at Mohd Azharuddin, VVS Laxman, Rahul Dravid who knew to attack and defend against spin and stay on the wicket. Cheteshwar Pujara is another example. Playing on flat tracks in 20 over cricket has resulted in an over-attacking mindset.
Virat & Rohit has lost their eyesight.Both should retire immediately.In turning pitches Panth missed so many catches.Panth should not keep in turning pitches.Subhman Gill & Sarafraj can bat only in flat pitches.Take my word India will be whitewashed by Australia 5 -0
Its a matter of time for any left arm bowler to get vk out........when he starts playin at d backfoot.....he doesnt sweep nor he uses his feet......just stuck at the crease.........
Time has come for India to prepare sportsmen in other sports to get medals in olympics. Sports ministry department has to change . Appoint new personnel .Just 2 medals for a population of 150crores is shameful more than losing in cricket
This due to too much money this cricketer have and do not care about anything. You can still male money in playing in IPL no need place in india team compared to cricketer before ipl who really needed place I the team at least to get some money for their family.
I can't imagine what they're still hanging around for when there is so much talent coming through the ranks.. great cricketers know when to quit instead of hanging around and embarrassing themselves.. surely the selectors know these guys time is up..they've done their job and it's time to kick their EGO's
The selection of team for Australia has been selected without application of mind. We need to be bolo. We don’t need a selection committee to decide this team!?
Cricket players from NewZealand a country whose population is less than the city of Pune arriving at Pune thrashing the Indians and terrorising them will not go well with BCCI. There will be lot of repercussions after the series defeat with Australia and all the oldies will be forced to take retirement.
All ways newzelanders are underdogs when they play with india but they will win. It has happend in all formats. They beaten us in wtc final, world cup semifinal
If you can’t beat NZ at home , If you can’t beat Australia , why should you go to WTC final ? Kuch bhi .. it means you are not good enough and that’s very fair
RO-KO should be benched for a period and given a clear message - perform or perish. Rohit is not and never was a Test material. The management has done justice to KL Rahul's avg by dropping him.
Lol you guys are again clubbing Virat and Rohit😂😂😂 but this time i don't think people will argue with you unlike last t20 wc. Because Virat has a bigger test legacy and he will for sure score vs Aussies in BGT, whereas Rohit will continue his selfless form
I never seen a long batting hours of rohit in any test match. I might be wrong. He need stand by example by making more runs. Forget about the WTC final they will qualify to loose the game.
Such a star team everyone keeps hyping up. Then captains,coaches also give big statements about temperaments, mindset, flexibility etc. Can't even win overseas conditions like SA, NZ and Eng from so many years with your 'star teams' over the years. It's not a coincidence that we haven't won WTC. This batting issue has been building up for some years now. India has been banking on touring teams' inability to play spin in home tests. This is what got us the wins not our own ability which has been in decline. Now that NZ has played good cricket suddenly you can't find the contrast and the illusion breaks. Not taking away from the kind of cricket NZ have played. But there is certainly a rot in the Indian setup that's only going to worsen.
Indian Batsmen have forgotten to play test cricket. No hope for them to beat Australia in Australia. Rohit's T20 batting will not help in Tests. Gill cannot move his feet while batting. Bowlers know how to bowl to Virat after 12 years. He cant play anything on backfoot. Virat needs to change his whole technique to play another 2 years in tests. Rahul gets too safe after 1 hundred and doesnt score runs Gambhir has to be very "Gambhir" about where to "start" his planning. Very bad state of the team for long forms of cricket.
Kohli used to come out as though he is the king and he would score lots of runs. Every ball he faced he was looking like he was going to get out. Sad to see….it’s better that he retires gracefully from test cricket to save whatever fan following he has left. Rohit is useless…no point in talking about him. Unfit to be in test team, forget captaincy.
I am not surprised. Kohli doesn't qualify into current Indian team. Rohit lacks form. In T20 Rohit has ability. Both seniors are conspiring to stay longer in the team . Virat got opportunity to open at the expense of Gill or Yashaswi. Kohli was disaster in T20 WC except in the final. They don't play domestic games. WTC final is not important for fans but definitely a tough fight in matches atleast. But players with form are supposed play. Gambhir doesn't have guts to drop clearly out of form players with big fan following . He learnt nothing from SL tour. Srilanka, South Africa , England, Australia in the current form can beat India in ODIs or Test . Give Bumrah Captaincy in Test match. We can expect better pitches helping seamers as well as spinners. Santer could know the pace and variations needed for the Pune pitch. NZ seamers dominated in overcast condition and with new ball in the first test. Drop few psychophanc commentators and reduce Gambhir's support staff. Aussie series was won because of Ajinkya, Rishabn, Pujara, Washington, Gill and few others. Replacements are available both for players or selectors or coaching staff. Bangladesh series win is commendable. Perhaps that made them overconfident.
Even in t20 World Cup final 2024, it was not a proper match winning knock by Virat. Thanks to Jasprit Bumrah we got away on that day. The pressure to face Bumrah in final overs got to SA batsman. Both veterans are a burden Indian team is carrying on its shoulders at the expense of opportunity to youngsters who are willing to put effort.
There are no chance of reaching the WTC. So no point discussing it. They have lost 2 WTC finals to different teams, start building a new team with young hungry players. Young hungry players won you the series last time around. There was no Kohli, Ashwin, Jadeja, Bumrah or K L in the team that won at the GABBA and Rohit didn’t contribute much
If rohit and virat are out from test team they will be out from odi team as well sooner or later, that is why i guess they don't want to leave tests any time soon
it's time up for rohit sajdeh, don't know about virat sharma, sarfaraz needs some harsh treatment in domestic, ravindra rivabah needs to go, rahul shetty will look after his FIL's hotel business
They failed so many times,but lower order saved ,but this series they totally exposed...they invested like KL rahul and Shubhman beuti parlour....they flop after 30 4p tests..they neverlookrd like a test bateer..shame
Nohit sharma has always been a poor test player. he can score a quick fire 100 on flat pitches if bowlers are average or unfocussed. Kohli has clearly lost interest since captaincy was taken away from him. India will have these issues as long as they continue to back players based on caste, region, religion. Let me give few examples: 1) Injury come back: Bumrah and even prasidh krishna can back into test team after recovering from injusry. But Mohamad Shami has to prove his fitness to be picked for Australia tour. This is despite him being almost as good as or better than Bumrah. 2) Wicket keeper slot was kept open for 2 years by now allowing aa good player to come in and take the spot. Why? Rishab pant had to recover and get back his place. What if someone like Sanju Samson was given chance ahead of other unknown players for 2 years? or even having dhruv jurel really a good 2nd keeper-batsman? 3) Shubman Gill and KL Rahul have been around for many many years. They have played many games at home against poor teams. Yet they average about 35 in tests . Why not replace them with the likes of Rituraj or Samson who have show ability to play top quality pace and spin in ODIs and T20Is? India will not give opportunities to non-br**min or non-upper caste players in batting, wicket keeping and spin. 4) Fast Bowling: Even in fast bowling the immediate preferences are mukesh, prasidh etc, but not khallel or umran. I dont think even Australia will keep a guy like umran totally away from the national side. Yes he might need grooming/polishing but that wont happen by punishing him. Keep him in the mix and make him a great bowler. No other bowler can bowl 155+ without breaking themself down within 6 months.
This series then would have been a bookies and betters paradise. Unexpected happens so that unsuspecting indian money betters can put a towel on their head and carry a chombu
If rohit sharma can do one more selfless act of resigning his captaincy &test cricket ,that will surly help team India in the long run. Hope he still has some shame left

Virat, ROHIT,Aswin ओर Jadu को जब तक नाही निकला जाएगा तब तक टीम ऐसा ही perfomence करता रहे गा
Yes its Time up for Ro-Ko. It's clearly seen on RO face. KO's performance.
Rohit,s mentality indicates India will not win a single match against Australia.
RO-KO should be benched for a period and given a clear message - perform or perish. Rohit is not and never was a Test material. The management has done justice to KL Rahul's avg by dropping him.
Okay
Actually pahunch bhi gaye WTC final
but they don’t deserve WTC like last 2 times
isse acha na hi pauche
We need new players
Inshort jouranlist is saying RoKo WTC final tak khelenge. Uske bad drop / retire
Lol you guys are again clubbing Virat and Rohit😂😂😂 but this time i don't think people will argue with you unlike last t20 wc. Because Virat has a bigger test legacy and he will for sure score vs Aussies in BGT, whereas Rohit will continue his selfless form
I never seen a long batting hours of rohit in any test match. I might be wrong. He need stand by example by making more runs. Forget about the WTC final they will qualify to loose the game.
London coolness got him thanda in batting also...and pathetic show
Good he didn eat vadapav like our pathetic captain
Good you didn say eating vadapav made every one throw up
Such a star team everyone keeps hyping up. Then captains,coaches also give big statements about temperaments, mindset, flexibility etc. Can't even win overseas conditions like SA, NZ and Eng from so many years with your 'star teams' over the years. It's not a coincidence that we haven't won WTC. This batting issue has been building up for some years now. India has been banking on touring teams' inability to play spin in home tests. This is what got us the wins not our own ability which has been in decline. Now that NZ has played good cricket suddenly you can't find the contrast and the illusion breaks. Not taking away from the kind of cricket NZ have played. But there is certainly a rot in the Indian setup that's only going to worsen.
Indian Batsmen have forgotten to play test cricket. No hope for them to beat Australia in Australia. Rohit's T20 batting will not help in Tests.
Gill cannot move his feet while batting.
Bowlers know how to bowl to Virat after 12 years. He cant play anything on backfoot. Virat needs to change his whole technique to play another 2 years in tests.
Rahul gets too safe after 1 hundred and doesnt score runs
Gambhir has to be very "Gambhir" about where to "start" his planning.
Very bad state of the team for long forms of cricket.
India no way are making WTC Finals and don't deserve also!
Kohli used to come out as though he is the king and he would score lots of runs. Every ball he faced he was looking like he was going to get out. Sad to see….it’s better that he retires gracefully from test cricket to save whatever fan following he has left. Rohit is useless…no point in talking about him. Unfit to be in test team, forget captaincy.
I am not surprised. Kohli doesn't qualify into current Indian team. Rohit lacks form. In T20 Rohit has ability. Both seniors are conspiring to stay longer in the team . Virat got opportunity to open at the expense of Gill or Yashaswi. Kohli was disaster in T20 WC except in the final. They don't play domestic games. WTC final is not important for fans but definitely a tough fight in matches atleast. But players with form are supposed play. Gambhir doesn't have guts to drop clearly out of form players with big fan following . He learnt nothing from SL tour. Srilanka, South Africa , England, Australia in the current form can beat India in ODIs or Test . Give Bumrah Captaincy in Test match. We can expect better pitches helping seamers as well as spinners. Santer could know the pace and variations needed for the Pune pitch. NZ seamers dominated in overcast condition and with new ball in the first test. Drop few psychophanc commentators and reduce Gambhir's support staff. Aussie series was won because of Ajinkya, Rishabn, Pujara, Washington, Gill and few others. Replacements are available both for players or selectors or coaching staff. Bangladesh series win is commendable. Perhaps that made them overconfident.
Even in t20 World Cup final 2024, it was not a proper match winning knock by Virat. Thanks to Jasprit Bumrah we got away on that day. The pressure to face Bumrah in final overs got to SA batsman. Both veterans are a burden Indian team is carrying on its shoulders at the expense of opportunity to youngsters who are willing to put effort.
Indian batsmen didn't have temperament, application in these two tests. They surrendered meekly against new Zealand bowlers.
Time is indeed up for RO KO..!
Ye to Kaho Williamson nahi aaya
There are no chance of reaching the WTC. So no point discussing it. They have lost 2 WTC finals to different teams, start building a new team with young hungry players. Young hungry players won you the series last time around. There was no Kohli, Ashwin, Jadeja, Bumrah or K L in the team that won at the GABBA and Rohit didn’t contribute much
How come every body forget poor Jadeja performance
If rohit and virat are out from test team they will be out from odi team as well sooner or later, that is why i guess they don't want to leave tests any time soon
And then their IPL valuation will go down...
Jo run nahi bana rahe,,vo match khel reh Jo run ban reh vo team k bahar hai .... Prince ka avrge 34 hai 54 innings m ....😅😅
Its not only for Ro-Ko also for Jaddu-Ash to hang their boots.
India dug their own grave at Pune.
Bring back Rahane and make the team around him, Rohit was never a Test team player
it's time up for rohit sajdeh, don't know about virat sharma, sarfaraz needs some harsh treatment in domestic, ravindra rivabah needs to go, rahul shetty will look after his FIL's hotel business
They failed so many times,but lower order saved ,but this series they totally exposed...they invested like KL rahul and Shubhman beuti parlour....they flop after 30 4p tests..they neverlookrd like a test bateer..shame
Nohit sharma has always been a poor test player. he can score a quick fire 100 on flat pitches if bowlers are average or unfocussed. Kohli has clearly lost interest since captaincy was taken away from him.
India will have these issues as long as they continue to back players based on caste, region, religion. Let me give few examples:
1) Injury come back: Bumrah and even prasidh krishna can back into test team after recovering from injusry. But Mohamad Shami has to prove his fitness to be picked for Australia tour. This is despite him being almost as good as or better than Bumrah.
2) Wicket keeper slot was kept open for 2 years by now allowing aa good player to come in and take the spot. Why?
Rishab pant had to recover and get back his place. What if someone like Sanju Samson was given chance ahead of other unknown players for 2 years? or even having dhruv jurel really a good 2nd keeper-batsman?
3) Shubman Gill and KL Rahul have been around for many many years. They have played many games at home against poor teams. Yet they average about 35 in tests . Why not replace them with the likes of Rituraj or Samson who have show ability to play top quality pace and spin in ODIs and T20Is? India will not give opportunities to non-br**min or non-upper caste players in batting, wicket keeping and spin.
4) Fast Bowling: Even in fast bowling the immediate preferences are mukesh, prasidh etc, but not khallel or umran. I dont think even Australia will keep a guy like umran totally away from the national side. Yes he might need grooming/polishing but that wont happen by punishing him. Keep him in the mix and make him a great bowler. No other bowler can bowl 155+ without breaking themself down within 6 months.
THE UNDERTAKER 21-1
Too defensive captaincy by Rohit Sharma.
Batting particularly Rohit and Kohli failed to lead. It will be curtains for their respective careers if they don’t fire in AUS..
You (and the Indian team and Indian fans) had foolishly underestimated the NZ team, hence the result and all the disappointments. Very foolish
This series then would have been a bookies and betters paradise. Unexpected happens so that unsuspecting indian money betters can put a towel on their head and carry a chombu
Too arrogant, too much T20 cricket as well. Forgotten how to be patient and humble
Ro ko its time for you retire.... There is no point in continuing without any performance... Make way for youngsters.....
