Every IPL season, there are a few flash in the pan batsmen or bowlers especially one or two batsmen, who are visioned to become the next Rohit Sharma or the next Dhoni ?
But, does it happen?
NO
Most likely these flash in the pans remain as falsh points for the next season or two at best & then all is dead.
Do we need to bet on them for winning?
NO
Consistency & Sustenance are as important as those flashes of brilliance
Between Jacques Kallis or Gayle (out dated players ?)…. I’ll go ahead with picking Kallis because I don’t know when Chris Gayle will hit like a gale wind or when there is dead wind. It can’t work that way. I can’t predict on which day Gayle is going to outperform or underperform.
I better stick with a consistent record which is more sustainable.
More so while investing…mutual funds etc
