Tremendous show of commitment from a 18 year old

[Xuhaib]

outstanding batsman very pleasing on the eye should be ahead of Yuvraj for a test place.

 

[Pratters]

I don't think Kohli is an exceptionally talented batsman who will reach the levels of a Tendulkar or a Dravid. However, he has a lot of grit and determination.

Dravid wasn't exceptional at the start either. He was a technically correct batsman who could grit it out in all conditions. The qualities that you mentioned helped him reach this level.

 

[Pratters]

Dravid was tremendously hard working and gritty but he also had loads of talent. I think the talent department of Kohli is a bit lacking when compared to some one like Dravid.

Let me put it simply, he might become a good international batsman but I doubt that he will become a great one from what I have seen of him.

Yeah. Got Kaif written all over him.

 

[Pratters]

I must add that

a) It takes tremendous amount of talent apart from hard work to do what Kohli has done at such a young age.

b) My position might seem a bit harsh.

 

[Xuhaib]

Yeah. Got Kaif written all over him.

Not a bit Kaif was actually quite a mediocer bat. Kohli has some class about his stroke play, the footwork is very assured and tends to handle the short ones exceptionally well, feel he will do better then Rohit or Raina.

Good time for the bump.. What does the guy average in ODIs now? 48?

 

[AaronK]

I would say if the game was an international game
Where his country's honar was at stake..I would probably say it was a good effort..what is there to compete when u r playing an state game..both states r part of ur country.

adharcric should come back

 

[Prince EWS]

adharcric should come back

Were you even here when he posted?

You're right though - he was awesome. Deleted more good posts than you'd ever imagine too. I could tell for a while he was going to leave us though - he became more and more annoyed with the little forum trends and annoyances around the place and just gradually posted less and less. Left in true adharcric style though - classy and without a fuss, he just stopped posting.

I think there was a small overlap but it was when i was quite inactive. Read a fair amount of his stuff in threads that get dug though, plus he has Badrinath as his avatar.

Time to dig up my post reg. him being India's Ponting, tbh.. The same discipline issues as a youth, obvious promise, #3 in ODIs, possible #6 in tests and a promotion in the future, captaincy, swagger, annoying sorta face.. He has got it all..
