Kohli - Shastri partnership is hurting India.

[debasis]

Rajdeep not asking question about Ravi shastri because he is fellow don boscoite, Idiot yahan bhi partiality.

[sottiki]

Virat is poor in picking the best team, Ganguly was the best in that aspect, he could identify talent better than any other captain. Virat is also not as good as MS in terms of reading a game and making decisions on the field.

[samarnathtewari]

Virat Kohili is shining individually but not as a test captain in overseas condition.

[dawar]

But King Kohli now knows he is Untouchable!

He doesn't care, if his decisions were idiotic or effecting the team. he wants Legend like Kumble to be out, then kumble will be out.He wants Ravi as coach then he will get it.If Kohli says boys need a break n announces 5 days off, then it will be like that

If Kohli wants to go out with his wife..he will fulfill it. If Kohli wants a player to be out..he will be out n if Kohli wants an inconsistent player to keep playing in the team then he will play!

He indirectly discarded the advisory committee that consisted of Sachin, Ganguly n VVS

NOONE QUESTIONS the KING!! He is not called KING KOHLI just for his batting! 😉

[Suresh-mmmr]

Virat Kohli may be a good player. But Virat Kohli is a worst caption.

[ambebhavani]

Amazing passion from Indian fans. We English are so used to losing, we try to enjoy the game and accept losses with a shrug. It's a game, people, not war.

[sydneypole]

If anyone is to blame for India's failure, it is the top order batsmen, and particularly the openers. Dhawan lacks the temperament, certainly for the conditions he was playing under.

[dashingbunty]

Gavaskar sir is hiding now..main reason of this series lost is ravi shastri...so pls take resignation from shastri as immediate effect..

[sun]

Hope this is wake call for Virat & Ravi.

[uditsankardas]

Ravi sastri is seriously harmfully for indian cricket. We need to remove him immediately else we will lose wc19. And there should be someone in the team who has power more than arrogant virat to save indian cricket.

[reverend]

India simply lacked in the batting department. Openers aint good for these conditions and the lower order is inexperienced for these conditions. 1st and 4th Tests were lost by fine margins, players gave their 100%. The main problem is the coaching, a better batting coach would have helped guys like Rahul, Pant, Pandya and a good head coach would have helped in better planning. Need to get rid of Bangar and Shastri, everything will be fine. This team is very close to winning overseas series'.

[amoljadhav]

India bowlers didn't took 80 wickets they took 67 wickets one match was lost by an innings...this shows level of research from these journalist

[shubhamrakesh]

Since world cup 2011 India in SENA countries has played 28 matches, won 3, drawn 5 and lost 20.

[Wandering_Desi]

Send kholi at number 3. You will see the change in overall batting line up.

[alikhan-riye]

Mr Gavaskar,
Pakistan since 1980, has lost only 2 test series on English soil, in 2006 and 2010.that is consistency.

[rahuljacobgeorge]

Replace Ravi shastri with someone like Sourav as Coach

[jivasrocks]

Need to rest a unfit Ashwin and play Jadeja

[devisridhar]

they are not playing for our country, they are just enjoying

[patrick_]

I think Gavaskar was spoken to by BCCI on what to say & what not to say. He is speaking like BCCI spokesperson not an INDIAN. Will the real Gavaskar please stand up !!!
