Will Geriant Jones become the new Gilchrist?

[Pratters]

Wow I thought dhoni was the first Gilchresque keeper.

 

[sledger]

there is no Gilchresque keeper asides gilchrist himself, the only one who comes anywhere near close to him is sangakarra. gilchrist is a world class batsman, dhoni i very much doubt is anything of the sort, i am quite confident he would not be a patch on gilchrist over any period of time, esspecially tests.

i think you was closer with the no one is like gilchrist part.
Jones is nothing like gilchrist apart from they are sponsored by the same manufacturer and they are wicket keeper batsmen. Thats about it

 

[sledger]

true, the closest to him in terms of ability is sangakarra as well, everyone else is centuries away, quite literally.

Will the Netherlands keeper (sorry I cant remember who it is) be the next Gilchrist ??

 

[psxpro]

I think I will be the next gilchrist if Jones or dhoni can be the next gilchrist, then why not me.

 

[Robertinho]

More than likely not - or should that be 'less than likely so', because such talk is as out of place as the usual 'Irfan Pathan to replace Kofi Annan as Secretary General of the UN' rubbish we had recently.

LMAO!!! Ohh.. that's hilarious..

Jeroen Smits? Can't bat for toffee, I'm afraid...

 

[a massive zebra]

No.

 

[silentstriker]

Yes.

 

[PhoenixFire]

Quite clearly yes, infact he already is twice the keeper and batsman that Gilchrist could ever dream of being.

Hindsight: A wonderful thing

 

[Poker Boy]

No. I reckon he(and Read) should be dropped for ever after this tour - to be replaced by James Foster in the short term and young Steven Davies of Worcestershire further down the line. Why Foster was not on this tour only Fletcher knows.

You say that like people actually thought he would be in the first place.

 

[GIMH]

No, but looking back people clearly thought he was going to be better than he turned out
