Bangalore, Hyderabad, do Rahul Dravid and V.V.S.Laxman even need to bat?

Question

They can come in 6th or 7th. They are just not making any impact. We want Gayle for Bangalore.

Answer 1

I think Dravid is OK but Laxman is totaly flop.

Answer 2

they should open

Answer 3

Yes,in T20  they  should come at position 5 or so to stabilize the

innings

Answer 4

Dunno about laxman,

but DRAVID - do you know how vital the 32 runs he scored during the last match was? he just rocks man, you must always support his decisions. and like a true fan I will. , even though I want to see him at No.3, I support his decision to open the innings

Answer 5

No they do not.

But as Captains, they have a say too,LOL, and I am guessing they think they are great with the bat.

Answer 6

You are correct, neither of the styles of these batsmen are suited to this deformity of the game. They should be batting way down the order.

Even their thinking in the field is not conducive this sort of game. I would even argue are they the right type of player to participate altogether.

Answer 7

Dravid Playd Accordin To 20/20 role not by defence

laxman has to hit strokes now

2 bad gayle wount be playing near by T20 matches according to cricinfo

Answer 8

While Dravid has not done that bad, Laxman has failed miserably in both the matches.  I strongly feel that Laxman has to

seriously think in terms of adjusting his style of play to suit the T20 format to justify his place in the side.
