Arshdeep's drop catch will overshadow how poor Chahal was, how bad Bhuvi was in the 19th over and Rohits tactical blunder of not scrapping in few Hooda overs!
He dropped a catch but showed temperament even when 7 were needed of 6 balls!
Spare the young man!
MS legit entered the field in an ongoing game, held up the game, had an altercation with umpires, thats being celebrated as an Alpha Male event!!
Young guy celebrating after taking a wicket is an issue here!
This sport can never evolve!
Kohli taking down Haris Rauf on 18.5 and 18.6 respectively with the batsmenship that was out of the world, At MCG, a place that made Rauf the superstar, a place that he felt he owned, a place that he believed he was invincible at!
That's where cricket peaked!
If this is not the passion for the game, then I don't know what is...Mans done an insane job of compiling the videos to celebrate the giant of the game for his remarkable feet...Something BCCI needed to do first hand..
Thats how you inspire the generation ahead!
Congratulation Ravichandran Ashwin Anna for the 100th Test👏
On the eve of this special occasion, watch his all 507 wickets in Test Cricket
#Ashwin
@ashwinravi99
Shaw was the captain of u19 team that had guys like Gill, Arshdeep, Abhishek Sharma, Parag, Mavi ,agreed that Pandey wasn't as successful as Kohli or Kaif wasn't as big as Yuvraj..
But Shaw's decline and downfall is absolute unreal!
Pains to see Talent going down the drain!
Kohli was crucified after the t20 world cup in UAE, and here a guy who lost all ICC tournaments in space of an year is being persuaded to lead for another world cup!
Hope Virat comes up with an autobiography....
This is no way you treat Once in a generation cricketer!
Looking at the trash Mukesh served to the openers, makes your heart bleed with a thought, what a beast Umesh Yadav was bowling on such benign Indian tracks!
Dhruv Jurel easily has been the find of the series, Man has conquered two absolutely horrendous situations one could encounter early in his career like a pro..Not only bailed India out but won them a game out of absolute dire straits!
Thats how you earn a long rope!
Irrespective of the series result, India needs to move on from Rohit Sharma the test captain..If you don't have the balls to attack a number 9 batsmen, that too at home, you just paint a pretty dismal picture as a leader!!
To win by 430 runs after being 33-3 on first morning, and opposition starting at 210-2 on 3rd morning is a truimph worth applauding with young starts taking a bulk of responsibility!
Boils my blood when I see tweets like these, freakin can't digest 2 losses in a row after winning multiple titles and bending every rule in the book!
It takes a heart and resolve of steel to be an RCB and Punjab fan!
Mighty proud of it!
Get out of your cocoon mate!
ONE MAN SHOW BY DINESH KARTHIK....!!!!
Tamil Nadu were chasing 252 runs, no one scored more than 25 runs but then Dinesh Karthik smashed 93 runs from just 82 balls - A bloody good fighting knock. 🫡
Dont get me wrong,have lived Indian cricket all my life, but just seeing them play, it feels they are just completing assignments, losses don't hurt, don't see the fire,Sm teams ready everyday with we will be back pics,Its an utter mahem, with no correlation, vision and planning!
Just a week after IPL finishes...Broken bodies, Tired Souls...Injured players...Exhausted viewers...and Carrebean Pitches!
Talk about horrible scheduling!
Rishabh Pant in his short career has already attained a cult and a 🐐 status, not on account of the runs he has scored but the mindset he scores them with!
That defines greatness!
Jaiswal has not only cemented his position as an opener, but having a series in which he is literally carrying the whole batting lineup on his shoulders at the age of 22!!
This hunger and maturity is what separates The Goods from The Greats!
@IrfanPathan
A childlike innocence when he came in the team to the man he is now, one thing is consistent, he was loved then, he is loved now...not many can boast about that!
Abuse them...Criticise them...Drag them to pits...Absolutely humiliate them on Social Media...Use your power and do that wholeheartedly...They are not only taking you for granted but humiliating you for the sin you have committed in loving this game.
Wont make you anti national!
Abhishek Sharma could have been your Yuvraj Singh 2011 on those West Indies pitches, but you keep playing orthodox brand of cricket in 2024 where your top 5 can't even give you 2 overs with the ball!
Leave aside Melbourne and Sydney, what the brave men in Shardul, Siraj, Washington, Natarajan managed to achieve at Gabba should be celebrated as folklore, bundling out Australia twice, surely its one for the ages!
Ridiculous if you think about it!
Shikhar Dhawan knows that something is beyond insecurities, beyond game and beyond competition and that's called Life...
He is an example how to live life with all the positive energy...
Love this man beyond the game of cricket...
He is a winner
@SDhawan25
Test Cricket under Virat's tenure was special man..dont think we will ever witness that euphoria ever again..The team had an aura of the world beaters❤
This team lost Hyderabad after having a lead of 190 runs, and won Ranchi after trailing by 170 runs at one point with only Akash Deep and Siraj in dug out!!
How can u not love this team and this brilliant sport❤
Moments and days like these keep us going!
Keep bowling first even in meaningless bilaterals, there's always a Livingstone waiting around the corner with 3-0-20-0 during knockouts of a world event, when forced to bat!
Ravi Ashwin's uninspired bowling efforts throughout the series has contributed significantly in England testing India to the point of leveling the series with Dharmashala to go!
Bhuvi has to be the most skillful bowler to have represented India in last 2 decades, FFS Dont bring in Bumrah, he is once in a generation kinda cricketer!
Same yardstick should be kept for commentators too in that case, guys like Bishop, Pommie,Howard and Nicholas should earn 3 times more than 'Andre andar, Gend Bahar' , Kaif, Dasgupta ,Karthik and Sunny G!
Sarfaraz's dad just can't hold his tears...Parents in our our part of the world are just selfless souls...Go Panda...live your moment.. Make the nation and your family proud!!
Good bye old friend!
Your legacy will remain imprinted in Indian Cricket history...Thats the one thing nobody can take away from you.
From 2 World cup semis, to a grand world t20 quarter finals to an epic Titan Cup Semis to Kohli's 100th test..
Will always remain ICONIC!
Even i feel Shardul in a test match is a risky proposition for team India because he can bowl 4 great balls and 1 boundary ball every over, Ashwin is a better player overall for that position but you can't deny man fights it like no one else in the middle!
Nothing but respect !
Just consider the impact he has had across formats for India along with his pretty stable IPL credentials with his rejuvenating hitting prowess, Virat will easily go down as the greatest of his generation!!
14-15 wickets on absolute flat wickets in 2 test matches!!!
Bumrah needs to be celebrated gloriously!!!
Will go down in history as the best to have ever held a cricket ball!
Champion!
For all the hype KS Bharat got for being a great glovemen, its Dhruv Jurel who has been stealing the thunder with his top notch wicketkeeping which has been a work of art, be it the Duckett runout in Rajkot or Pope stumping today!
Thats how difficult it is to bowl and catch with the wet ball...But hey its India bowlers, one can never praise them, they are only to be bashed every day of the week!
The Bazball might not have changed test cricket, but the fact it has generated fear and nervousness in the minds of opposition, that England can play to achieve the improbable is a massive win for the game!
They have kicked off the word Fear, irrespective of a win or loss!
This picture honours everything you love about this game, the people who back you, applaud you, flock the stadiums to see you play are given the respect they so richly deserve..They will always be the biggest stakeholders of the game..
Thats how you reward fans you dumba**
@BCCI
Last night's events should make you respect Virat even more, Man played for a franchise for 15 years without any success, how easier it would have been for him to switch sides, but Man breathes RCB and yearns to do so till he bats!
As he said Loyalty above everything!
You just don't appreciate the genius of Shikhar Dhawan...my man didn't give chahal the bowl, in pursuit went on with fast bowlers, delayed the 20 over benchmark required to force the result, with rain inevitable!
Keep Ashwin away from white ball cricket for good of humanity, too much variations, experimenting has made him forget the basics of test bowler he used to be, just pitch the ball on consistent lines and patience!
Gotto give it to Ambani's for showing the over hyped bollywood its real worth, FFS they were standing in queue outside an airport to board a shared bus to the venue 😂😂😂
They will keep nitpicking Virat's strike rate even though he may be striking better than before in powerplay, they will keep finding a scapegoat in Hardik who is devoid of confidence right now, but they will keep bringing Rohit's 50 overs exploits to justify his t20 selections!
If Mumbai Indians with this bowling attack make the playoffs, other teams should not only hang their heads in shame but liquidate their franchises and save both themselves and their fans from further misery and embarrassment!
Its not that there is dearth of talent in the country, its just that selectors don't select right guys for the format it needs, the selfish urge to be an all format player, has resulted in world cup drought!!
Abhishek Sharma is the opener u need for a t20 set up,
Anyways...
This knock is perfect testimony of fact that Pant needs time to get back into his groove, to his vintage best...Prepare him for BGT at the end of the year, don't force a world cup on him yet!!
Who's hitting 20 of 6 balls in a knockout game is all I am interested in??
All good smacking the daylights out of the bowlers in bilaterals...
When its T20 world cups, there is only 1 man who's been consistently pulling off miraculous knocks over and over since last 4 editions!
VIDEO | “Virat Kohli is a great example. Virat Kohli is playing Test cricket for India and he isn’t supposed to get out. Now, he goes to play for RCB, for India; beyond a certain point, it might actually been the interest of the side for him to get out. How do you reconcile to
Ian Bishop acts like a fatherly figure when it comes to Gill, you can see the excitement in his words...And Virat always acts like an elder brother flaunting each and every Gill's achievements...
Why can't we just celebrate positivity!
Let's have another 700 run IPL season, rich of them to think they can sell a world event in America without Virat! Sources can go and screw themselves!
Not for the first time, he will again make you lick your own spit!
Hardik is all extremes..At the start of tournament he will take the new ball, run in, try to bowl 140km/hr, overwork his body, then spends 75 percent of the tournament clapping for other guys who bowl...
Had an Indian batsmen played an innings like Phillips in such a similar scenario, leave aside being celebrated he would have been undroppable till the next edition of the world cup!
It was that special!
This game yet again highlights a significant thing, no matter how great others bat, a team can never compensate for someone scoring 16 of 19 balls, and this guy has lasted 15 years with same inefficiency!
Honestly surprised that Hafeez feels he can beat Vaughan in a banter, Bro the man's a freak, he will keep grilling you night and day, he has balls to take a joke and gives it back double the roast!
Your sense of humour just bends like your arm!
For me as an IC Fan, next 6 months till the ipl, every series, evey game they play is inconsequential, don't give two hoots about results and winning percentage as captain, all energy should be diverted to banging Australia 4-0 in BGT!
That's pinnacle, nothing else matters to me!
Whether India selects Bharat or Ishan, or bring back Saha for tests against Australia, there's no alternative that fills the void of Pant, his massive absence puts a huge burden and responsibility on top 4 which are anyways struggling , Series defining void this!
Everyone's focusing on Asia Cup, and somewhere in England a test match is on the verge of finishing in 7 sessions!
But its Indian Pitches spinning that gives diarrhea to the world!
Another takeaway Rinku Singh is more than your one year IPL wonder and should be a regular going into the t20 world cup, has skills, temperament and most importantly a working brain!
News of Kartik Aryan replacing Akshay in his iconic character of Raju in Hera Pheri should be good enough reason to confirm that Hindi film industry is as dead as Indian cricket fans at this moment!
Indian tailenders are so impotent with a bat in their hand...and there was Naseem Shah who smacked 2 sixes of 2 balls to win Pakistan the game against Afghanistan which was gone by all means!
Losers can't even rotate strike!
Hype anyone you feel like, come 15th October yet again there will be one man standing against the likes of Naseem, Shaheen and Rauf and just like always he will do it one last time for India...cause when its against Pakistan he is the last man standing always!
If keeping is still the only thing in modern day cricket,a 39 year old Saha is still the best keeper in the country by miles, can hold the bat better than your Vizag Bradman! cricket has moved on, one can't afford an impotent WK bat especially with 4 number 11's that follow him!
I worry when reports on this series casually mention that KS Bharat hasn't done well enough. Yes, he hasn't delivered the runs with the bat but his keeping has been top class. While a keeper must deliver with two skills, we tend to measure his performance almost entirely by one
Bhuvi will bowl everything unplayable till the inevitable knockout game when he will shit so bad!
This move of playing him will always be a poor one irrespective of how well he goes, its lack of logic with no vision for building a team for future..
Rishabh Pant can do a lot better than milking his biggest nightmare and second chance in life.. I am all for earning money from endorsements, but this is now getting way out of hand to the point of long lost morality!
Virat at twilight of his career 600 runs at a strike rate of 150, taking genuine criticism in his stride and reinventing his skills!!
Nothing but mad respect!!
Cricket coverage on Prime overshadows Hotstar and Jio Cinema by country miles...Such crystal clear and smooth coverage, just looks mighty impressive!
As if someone merged the whole coverage in Desi Ghee!
Psl final was preponed by a day as there was a forecast of massive storm in lahore, and it was one of the best finals witnessed.
And these rich dumbf*ks couldn't even prepone a game by an hour knowing the weather around since 2 days!
Cricket and fans are least of their priority!
Indian cricketers,considered demi Gods got so rattled when the West Indian board couldn't provide them facilities as per their liking, but won't say a word when fans of the game suffer humiliation, harassment, get beaten in stampede..
Thats advertised as passion for the game!
The greatest disservice Dravid and Rohit will do to Indian cricket is try to make Sky an all format player, He was born to rule this format, he is a free flowing river, just let him be!!
He defines greatness in this format!
