Dhruv Jurel

So what’s the verdict. From what I’ve seen, he has top order batsman potential, even when Pant returns. Or he’s the WK and Pant focuses on his batting.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Think it might be the latter. Pant owns that wk spot though.

Come on Asssh!

Is it sad that I already forgot about Pant ??

Even if Pant comes back , I doubt he would be the same player .
Bit like Thor in Avengers Endgame vs Infinity war .

They say cricket is the most forgiving sport physically.. I would like to believe that he will recover to the max capacity.

Remove him from wk role to not put extra burden on foot and keep him as a specialist batsman.

Yes, shame this thread doesn't have a catchy title like those about Jaiswal and Sarfaraz.

 

[Shri]

jurel has enough about him to give hope

if pant returns as a specialist bat, jurel could push gill out of the XI bec he's a keeper

we could play this xi at home at full strength:

jaiswal
rohit
rahul
kohli
pant
jaddu
jurel
ashwin
kuldeep
bumrah
shami

and this away:

jaiswal
rohit
rahul
kohli
pant
jaddu
jurel
shardul
bumrah
shami
siraj

long tail tho

Kuldeep instead. Atleast try him out(has a fifer in Aus)

Shardul has no business being in any test team

esp when Deep has shown he can bowl close to 140k

 

[ma1978]

Kid can play. Looked like a veteran top order batsman out there. Pure class.

Is Rahul really a guaranteed starter?

Gill has a better record over last 3 years

Rahul sucks against spin

 

[Aidan11]

Impressed with the lad so far.

If he keeps up this form to there's no reason why he can't stay in the side as a middle order batter when Pant returns.

 

[Molehill]

England made a mistake getting Barat out too quickly in the First 2 Tests. Jurel has been instrumental in the next 2 and is clearly a decent bat (keeping looked a bit rusty at times).

Some great strike rotation.

 

[Silver Silva]

Dhruv Jurel only has 1 professional hundred in his professional career..The 90 he made against England is his second highest score across FC, LIST A and T20 which is quite remarkable.

 

[Coronis]

They say cricket is the most forgiving sport physically.. I would like to believe that he will recover to the max capacity.

Remove him from wk role to not put extra burden on foot and keep him as a specialist batsman.

Fingers crossed

I don't think it's quite as remarkable as Bashir now having taken more than half his FC wickets in the 2 Tests he's played in this series.

 

[Ashes81]

Jurel was excellent in this test but assuming Pant comes back at his former level, then he will take the gloves back.

Would Jurel warrant a spot purely on his batting - not for me.
