That’s why all this talk about Anderson being unplayable in these conditions is rubbish.

Sachin was Anderson's bunny himself. So all that practice didn't help him much did it ?

For a two match test series, Pak played 4 practice games. Whereas for a 5 match test series India wanted two day practise game. They also cancelled the only practise game in SA. Just shows which is a professional team.

Could it be because he couldn’t practice against rasgullas before facing Anderson?

Well they are practicing against Arjun Tendulkar in the nets to counter Sam Curran, shouldn't that account for anything

Ganguly yesterday wanted them to practice at Lords today.Arrive at 12 in the afternoon and practice playing against swing and work on their slip fielding after the match was over.

I want Ganguly to shut up. Will he do it ? Just like that... They won't give a * about what he thinks.

Today is cloudy as well, wonderful to have some nice practise in tough conditions. But sorry, players have more important shopping appointments.

Walking in a mall is one of the best and fun cardio exercises. No wonder these guys ace the Yo-Yo tests

So that shows that their priority is not cricket but shopping taking selfies and night  outs.Any idea about cheerleader?

[Adi BB]

Why ? Doesn't giving heated PCs,travelling with your loved ones,enjoying vacations and outings ,going for shopping,cheerleading etc count for practice ??

 Are you the Outy laaloo keeps talking about ? Then not a single penny for you sir.  I wasn't even trolling. I was just responding to your post.

Can we blame players if no practice is planned by management?

 

If guys like Rahane or Pujara or anyone else wants to practice...how will they if no one has planned any.

 

Or if the management defers going to the next city and instead choose to stay back in london.Players don't get to choose...or do they?

 

Only captain and management can be blamed.

If practice is planned and then the players skip it, then we can blame them.

who was the player who didn't travel with the team during Anil rumble as coach ?

Their is no management and BCCI because of Supreme Court. Its all kohli if you hear the discussion regarding team huddle it seems Shastri just keeps quiet in team huddle.
