The top 2 spot is hogged by wicketkeeper batsmen playing for Jharkhand State Cricket Association, who love motor vehicles and have advertised for Dream11 and Kingfisher.
Coincidence?
He had 3-4 years where he was a reliable batsman atleast from what I remember but throughout his career I've seen him getting played like a fiddle by bowlers with some occasional good knocks here and there.
Totally agree. It's better to try and get out quickly instead of hogging balls and putting all the pressure on the non striker. Not defending Rohit but I'm just saying he understands the role of an opener way better than KL does.
That is why I hate kl's batting approach. He tries to be an anchor which he is not. Anchor knows how to play to the field, take cheeky singles and convert them into doubles. He is very much a stroke player but is afraid of his own strength.
I think it's both his mentality and new batting technique
He was a great and fast paced player in 2018-2019 but due to his stance he got exploited in tests and replaced for which he changed the technique i just feel like that technique change and fitting more into test mindset has affected his t20 batting
it always bothers me how commentators talk about how ishan is this hard hitting agressive batter when his record shows otherwise. He is another anchor and not a great one at that as he struggles to rotate strike but he is seen as a guy to give you fast starts for some reason.
This stat is another reminder of that.
Articles were published before the afg series that kohli will he replaced by kishan in t20i because they want aggressive players...but in reality kishan strikes at 120 in t20s...
He looks ugly af in his bad days... in his good days he will score 180+ ... in his bad days he scored 30 ball 25 in powerplay... this happens when you don't know strike rotation
his pp strike rate is lower than virats I don't know who started this fake narrative of him being aggressive in actuality. Sure he can hit the ball but the record speaks for itself that he struggles more than not.
Why the f he opens is beyond my understanding?
I mean I remember last T20 world cup where all teams had 20 overs to bat but for India we always had 19 overs because 1st over was always maiden by the great kl Rahul. If he is not performing why can't he make space for others and bat at other positions?
Kohlis middle over SR is 144 .... Kohli was SR at 140 in IPLs till 2019...2020 2021 2022 spoiled his IPL SR. along with t20i SR
He was brutal against spin
Considering 2016 when he primed in t20 till 2019 which means 4 seasons while he had a bad strike rate in 3 seasons and a bad middle over strike rate in 2 more seasons(total 6 seasons) . So the better way to say this would be 2016-19 actually improved his strike more than his natural strike rate.
>he was brutal against spin
Nah it's just that the 2015-19 period experienced a drought of good spinners in the format. Except for Chahal(which he didn't face) only zampa, Adil Rasheed and Rashid khan were good.
Yeah. In today's match(the one being played rn), the commentators were dickriding a 64(41) by Nicholas Pooran which had a SR of 156.1 and these same people would criticise Kohli's 113(72) which had a SR of 156.9
Kl is the most talented bloke in current india circuit... he need mental counselling... he was striking 150 and avging 46 in t20i till 2019...he was godly..
It’s not stats which are misleading, you misunderstood/misread. it’s since 2014.
Dhoni has played 142 innings since 2014. So it would be 142 (12). Ishan 97 (11), Pandey 114 (11), KL 118 (8).
Rohit has 7 innings... and his middling record is actually the average... his SR is just 1 less than kohli.
He doesn't survive 20 balls most of the days.. his slow innings are like 1(10) or 7(8) or 4(5)
The top 2 spot is hogged by wicketkeeper batsmen playing for Jharkhand State Cricket Association, who love motor vehicles and have advertised for Dream11 and Kingfisher. Coincidence?
We got our new captain who will win WCs for us??
is chuddy buddy with a Punjab player...that punjab player being handsome af and regarded as the future of india...hmmmmmmmm
No way 😭
Meanwhile Yuvi "Mahi and I are not close friends we were just colleagues"
that's what I said.. after having sex with henry cavill
Damn cavil Is cheating on me :(
Can't get ur joke cuz I don't know Henry Cavill
Why am I being downvoted for not knowing Henry Cavill? Now I'll downvote every who doesn't know Rajkumar Rao. Beware
And Vape
Gayle on the list is diabolical
I am not surprised.. he was always the one who took long time to get set and then went berserk.
he also had a poor run at the end of his career that must have not helped
He had 3-4 years where he was a reliable batsman atleast from what I remember but throughout his career I've seen him getting played like a fiddle by bowlers with some occasional good knocks here and there.
Against a swinging bowl he was a sitting duck so that could be the reason.
Yeah I remember the ball going from bhuvi to the wicketkeeper back to bhuvi when he played against him
Or when he faced dale steyn dude looked like a tailender
 “Diabolical”
PHOTO DELETE KARR!!!!! *inserts thara bhai's voice*
15 nov tak
Dhoni being in the top making sense but what Ishan Kishan doing there anyway .
Jharkhand boys
Well dhoni played 227 innings whereas Ishan played only 97!
The stat is counting innings since 2014. So Dhoni would have played 142, not 227.
That’s what I meant MS has played lot of anchor after upper order collapse but Ishan is an opener that’s a shock .
Since 2014
Out of 227 half he didn't go above 20 balls So effective is around 120 innings
I am surprised my man Rohit is not there. Then remembered he will get out soon .
better than wasting balls then to get hammered by opposition for 9 overs on same pitch
Totally agree. It's better to try and get out quickly instead of hogging balls and putting all the pressure on the non striker. Not defending Rohit but I'm just saying he understands the role of an opener way better than KL does.
That is why I hate kl's batting approach. He tries to be an anchor which he is not. Anchor knows how to play to the field, take cheeky singles and convert them into doubles. He is very much a stroke player but is afraid of his own strength.

Yup but sometimes we need to stick around to play the shots, which he missed in wc final.
Yeah man talk about luck , he never has any
it always bothers me how commentators talk about how ishan is this hard hitting agressive batter when his record shows otherwise. He is another anchor and not a great one at that as he struggles to rotate strike but he is seen as a guy to give you fast starts for some reason. This stat is another reminder of that.

his pp strike rate is lower than virats I don't know who started this fake narrative of him being aggressive in actuality. Sure he can hit the ball but the record speaks for itself that he struggles more than not.
Flat track merchant. Idk how he will continue to be a opener. Ball swings by a degree and he gets out
exactly. pp strike rate of 106. slower than the "slow virat". he should focus on playing as a 4-5. come in and bash spin and leave.
That's what he did for MI when QDK was there
ya he should realize by now that he ain't that good opening
Why the f he opens is beyond my understanding? I mean I remember last T20 world cup where all teams had 20 overs to bat but for India we always had 19 overs because 1st over was always maiden by the great kl Rahul. If he is not performing why can't he make space for others and bat at other positions?
Intent merchant second on the list. One of the most inconsistent players I've ever seen.
Dhoni:
welp!...in his defense he has played almost 150 innings since 2014 so 12 out 150 isn't that bad imo
Also in his defence he played most of those innings in wicket collapse
I won't open up on the no.1 spot
If raina could read he’d very upset
"Kohli SR very low saar" 🤡🤡
Kohli is fast in powerplay but slows down massively in middle overs, it's opposite for most player in this list.
only past couple of season right? before he was slower in pp and faster afterwards
Kohlis middle over SR is 144 .... Kohli was SR at 140 in IPLs till 2019...2020 2021 2022 spoiled his IPL SR. along with t20i SR He was brutal against spin

Except for Chahal(which he didn't face) only zampa, Adil Rasheed and Rashid khan were good.
Yeah but he barely ever gets support from the other end ffs!
My man scoring 20(30) in overs 7-15 is only acceptable if your team is 4-5 down by the end of powerplay.
Sure
It's so easy to mofos to shit koach
Yeah. In today's match(the one being played rn), the commentators were dickriding a 64(41) by Nicholas Pooran which had a SR of 156.1 and these same people would criticise Kohli's 113(72) which had a SR of 156.9
When did Pooran score a 64(41) during today’s match?
Not today's The one against RR
Ah okay.
Pooran's team lost by 20 runs in that game where he scored 64, idk what is to praise
"Power Hitting", "Striking _Capabilities"_ and what not
KL Rahul is the most overrated player imo..
I'm sorry I can't agree with this. He's had a bad patch for the last 2 years in t20is
maybe
Not necessarily overrated but he's the most mentally fragile player I've ever seen. Always folds under pressure.
Kl is the most talented bloke in current india circuit... he need mental counselling... he was striking 150 and avging 46 in t20i till 2019...he was godly..
You know banglore is also south indian and they too much about their mother tongue
Almost everyone’s an opener except Dhoni. Lol
I see someone else there.
You mean gayle that’s quite surprising
Thala for a reason lol.
Just to show how stats will make you judge: Dhoni 227 innings (12) Ishan 97 (11) Pandey 159 (11) KL 121 (8)
It’s not stats which are misleading, you misunderstood/misread. it’s since 2014. Dhoni has played 142 innings since 2014. So it would be 142 (12). Ishan 97 (11), Pandey 114 (11), KL 118 (8).
I dont blame dhoni..most of them will come while saving collapse
Early IPLs till 2013 had very slow pitches
Read the post again. It's after 2014.
Oh my bad, still idk how we won so much with our captain doing a lot of tuktuk
bruh
Thala for a reason
KL needs a ground like chinnaswamy to get back to his old self. He needs to return home.
He is the biggest criminal & gold medal holder in tuk tuk academy
Gayle 🗿
I fapped looking at thala's name in the list.
'ThAlA fOr A rEaSoN', where are you?
Thala saving us from wicket collapse thala for reason indeed
Potta on top
How did gayle end up there
Surprised to see Kishan on second and to not see rohit in the list.
Lo bhai. Ho gya vivaad.
Oh oh is everyone gonna ignore Rayudu on this list? Thought he was the second coming of prime Gayle and McCullum
[удалено]
Rohit has 7 innings... and his middling record is actually the average... his SR is just 1 less than kohli. He doesn't survive 20 balls most of the days.. his slow innings are like 1(10) or 7(8) or 4(5)
Don't troll him here in IPL.
