Already a mediocre keeper, his keeping will nosedive because of all thoughts of bowling changes and field placing distracting him and also all the running he has to do to chat to the bowlers of they get hammered. Great tamasha this will be, watch out India..oops team Pawar getting fined regularly for taking too much time to bowl their quota and the spike in extras :)

You are absolutely right! Great observation!! Same happened to England when Alec Stewart was the captain!! His keeping became shoddy and his batting nosedived to county levels...

And look at his batting, he has now started playing like Chetan Chauhan ... good tamasha to watch .. Dravid will have the last laugh.. Ian Chappel has suggested VVS laxman for test captain. I strongly recommend him because he is unemployed for a long time.. at least this will keep him in full employment..

I agree. It was funny watching him "drop anchor" in the 20-20 game against NZ as if it was a test match..lol

and now India has a great run-out master .. Dinesh Karthik .. If anybody is tired batting just give him a shout.. He will come halfway down the pitch and then run back to the same crease he came from.. Poor fellow he is worried about his career .. ONce out of the team ..It is unemployment time for the rest of his career

Make Ramesh Pawar captain he carries Pawar weight and actual weight to .. He looks like a ships captain ideal to run the Indian cricket ship
