Will captaincy improve the consistency of Rohit Sharma??

           On 24th April, all set for the match between mighty Mumbai Indians and Kolkata Knight Riders.That was the toss time.Gambhir spins the coin.Heads is the call from Mumbai Indians captain.But its not Ricky,its Rohit Sharma..!! Unbelievable.A player who is not able to find his place in Indian team for 5 years due to inconsistency captaining Mumbai Indians??

            Yeah..!!He may not be consistent in International cricket.But he is pretty consistent in IPL and reliable too.There was a question,"where is Ricky".He dropped himself from the team to get a good foreign combination.All said it's not a right decision in the starting.But at the end of the match all seemed to be good.Because stand-in captain registered his first win.                                                         




                   Is it a good decision to inflict captaincy on Rohit sharma? Yeah its a right decision i would say.We all say Rohit is a talented player but he cannot be consistent.In my opinion captaincy is the only tool which will improve him to be consistent.Because a captain is a one who has the responsibility for whatever the team does.

                   Once he becomes a captain,he will start playing for the team, not for himself.Another question which would arise is "Is he suitable for captaincy??". Yes he is.Because by seeing this match we could identify him as a good captain.Earlier runs were coming on the board for KKR easily.Rohit had put all his efforts to control the run rate.Eventually he got it.We have to wait and see how he plays as a captain,Whether he will succeed or not.Captaincy is temporary,class is permanent!! :P :P

Which one is the best IPL team???

            "மா ற்ற ம்  ஒன்றே   மாறாதது " is a Tamil quote which means "change is the only thing which never changes".As a follower of the above quote IPL is going through the number of changes.A team which got first place in the league matches last time gets last place this time.So its not easy to say which team is the best..!! Here is my answer.
             


             I think the team which has been consistent over all the seasons is the best.In that aspect there are only 3 teams.They are Chennai Super Kings,Royal challengers Bangalore,Delhi Daredevils.
In these three teams ,Delhi Daredevils was the formidable team in the past.But in the ongoing series they are fully washed out in the played matches.In these season winning a match itself is a big task for this team.
            
              Secondly we've got Royal Challengers Bangalore.Its quite consistent in the all the seasons though they are changing the captain more often.But the thing is that the team is not reliable.Because if one of its star players gets out,they will struggle to score.Its the fact which was obtained from the Royal Challengers Bangalore in the past seasons.The best example is the 2011 final match between Chennai Super Kings and Royal Challengers Bangalore.
            
               Finally Chennai Super Kings.Its the team which was favored by LUCK in addition to hard work.The team which has its own captain cool and has been producing some quality players for the national side.The big plus of the team is its batting line.It has the batsmen till 8th wicket down.And some of them are allrounders as well.Its the only team which reached semifinals in all the 5 seasons and bagged the trophy for two times.
  
               We could see a quote which revolving around social websites,"What is IPL? It is a cricket league in which 8 teams will be fighting together to meet Chennai Super Kings in final." Because this statement suits for the team.

                In all the three teams,Chennai Super Kings would be my answer.As all of you know that its been led by captain cool who is the real match winner for the short format games.It would be the pure reason for its consistency and also the captain is the innovative thinker. "Not only the hard work pays the victory.There should be some luck too" :) :)

Why RO-HIT SHARMA could not be a consistent player???

              After making his successful debut,Rohit sharma is still seeking to cement his place in Indian team.In early days he was being praised as "Next Dravid".The reason behind this is his temperament and his talent.He executed these things very well in the CB series which was held at Australia.While the Biggest names like Dhoni,Yuvraj,etc. struggled to face shot balls he did it with ease in that series.
              
               Many would have heard that he is one of the Best batsman in nets.But why he can't show this talent in international level matches.Many legends have said that Rohit sharma is bit more talented than his counterpart Virat kohli.But nowadays Virat's been a star player in Indian cricket.But rohit is still struggling to find his place.The answer would be a simpler one.That is "CONSISTENCY"
          
                We could see that Virat is taking his own time to settle down and to know about the pitch conditions.But Rohit is not so.He wants runs on the board for each and every delivery he's facing.If he makes some dot balls he started lossing his patient and trying for some big lofted shots.Is this the only reason for his failure of consistency?I would say NO.Because there are some other reasons also.
              After playing some good innings,Rohit gets overconfident.So he starts to attempting some bad deliveries.This might be an another reason.

              You might have heard that Sachin once said that Rohit sharma could surpass my records.Even after failed in successive innings,he has been selected for the Indian team.I think they don't want to leave the talent in vain.They want to utilize his talent as giving so many chances to him.

              And also he had had so many chances to make his test debut from his debut itself.But he wasted all the chances.Now he is in a critical position.Now he has only one chance to get into test team.That is Sachin's place.There are some contenders for this place too. Atleast hereafter he has to use his chances as better as he can. "Form is temporary.Talent is permanent" :P :P
