Is Tillakaratne Dilshan's Current Ranking As The Worst Captain Ever Justified?

[benchmark00]

Rubbish thread.

We shouldn't be surprised - This **** is a chronic **** thread starter imo.

 

[Spikey]

shut it ****; Dilshan is number one worst captain haterz can suck it

 

[benchmark00]

Agree with this. Besides how can you expect a man to lead a team with a number of ex captains in it. Pressure would be enormous at the best of times let alone with others trying to make decisions for him

Pretty much every Indian captain has to deal with this problem tbf.

Would be a disgrace if this thread made it to a third page itbt.

 

[Spikey]

not even

Rather a captain who takes a punt (albeit a Hail Mary of a Hail Mary) than one like Shakib who gave his seamers no slips after about 6 overs with a lead of 400+. Would break your heart as a bowler.

 

[Spikey]

ok what about Dilshan loving himself as a bowler for no valid reason

And tbf Dilshan takes his seamers off after 6 overs and don't bowl again til the new ball

Close thread imo.

 

[Spikey]

It's a valid area of discussion

 

[Spikey]

you ****

no valid

You have seen his seamers, yeah? 6 overs probz too generous.

 

[Spikey]

but they have actually been taking the odd wicket, somehow. have you seen his spinners? they ain't much chop either (both him and the other two)

 

[benchmark00]

ffs.

 

[Spikey]

gonna be so mad when this makes it to 10 pages

Why no joke option?

5-0 ****ers.

 

[Migara]

haha.....did Hashan Tilekeratne ever captain SL though? I think he was stand in captain for a few matches right?

Yeah, that 2003 white wash was due to his pansy-captaining. SL would have won that 2-1 if not for his piss-poor captaincy.

Dilshan has been much better than expected. Even looks better than Sanga, because he's not afraid to try out things. We may laugh at Sanga bowling, but his decision to give Sam the ball was a successful one.

Everytime i see him captain in a close match (or match they look like losing) has anyone notice how bad his body language gets? Can't believe someone hasn't taken him aside and told him to show abit of positivity and try to inspire players rather then sulk when your the captain

lol......true

I dont feel he actually sulks per se. I think he may let the situation get to him at times though. OTT thread IMO. Expected him to be far worse. He should probably use his main spinners ahead of himself but have no issues with him bowling more overs. I think he's fairly useful with the ball in these sort of conditions, Sanga probably didn't use him enough at times I reckon. Hope he steps up with his batting though.
