Indian Premier League - General Discussion

Can't blame Pant for that. Cricketers sometimes can't match superior quality. Ashwin can't field like AB de Villiers. In the same way, Pant can't keep like Samson.
Samson needs to learn a lot from Pant. Things like how to be consistent, how to finish matches when you are batting well, how to handle pressure, how to build a long innings while batting at a brisk pace, how to take on the attack to bowlers like Bumrah and Malinga in the death overs.

Yeah true, superior quality Pant is no comparison for an average Samson who once had the skills to be as good as what Pant is today.

Samson hardly scored first class hundreds while Pant has a triple ton in Ranji trophy. Pant is the first ever wicket-keeper for India who scored a Test hundred in both England and Australia with a career best of 153* against Australia in Australia. Samson can only dream of playing Test Cricket!!!
 
Pant may not be talented, but he is smart. I'll give him that. Seen off the pacers without trying to hit them, and now targeting spin which suits his skillset.
 
Actually he's not smart. So he isn't talented enough to hit pace bowling, and he also isn't smart. Mediocre player.

Jesus Christ, do you actually have anything meaningful to post or is it just the same tirade everytime?
 
Delhi Capitals are a very defensive side. Of course, which side wouldn't be defensive, when Pant is a nailed-on starter? What is Rishabh Pant if not mediocrity persevering...the guy does 10 times the hard work that Sanju does, but hard work doesn't really compete with natural talent.
 
I was excited to see Woakes come in about six overs ago. Still waiting.

I'm confused. Isn't Woakes good enough to bat at six in a T20? May not have the power hitting but can build an innings at the least.
