Cricketer Of The Year
Yes, he has done very well with the bat so far in tests but he has not shown himself to be a test bowler at test match level or first class level. Being off and on in Ranji is just an excuse.Dude, you are missing context. He was off and on in Ranji because of international games in between. He was chasing impossible 4th innings scores twice I think and was dismissed cheaply there. And his bowling was actually what got us back into the game once.
Going by sheer FC numbers when our FC is all over the place as it is with 38 teams and a plethora of conditions, when he has actual test match success to show, is just silly.
He was chasing impossible 4th innings score mainly because his bowling was not up to the mark. Even Riyan ****ing Parag has bowled better this season than him and has more than one bowling performance to show and I don't want that Parag guy ever in the Indian team.
