Nikhil_cric Posted June 4, 2019 Author Share Posted June 4, 2019 Looks like jadeja will play. And indications are he will play ahead of Jadhav. Which would be a stupid call. That weakens our batting greatly. The only way jadeja can play is if we play Rohit Dhawan Kohli Rahul Dhoni Shankar Pandya Jadeja Kuldeep/Chahal Shami Bumrah Cant have dhoni 5 Pandya at 6, jadeja 7 and then 4 bowlers . That weakens our batting considerably. Link to comment

Were they fighting for the same spot ? That means Pandya plays at 6 and Jadeja at 7. That's a disastrous batting line up SK_IH and sandsaims 1 1 Link to comment

cowboysfan Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 any news of the pitch? it would be foolish to play Jaddu on a flat pitch without grip. Link to comment
Sonix768 Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 Ever since Kallis has retired, India has been thrashing SA left right and center in ICC tournaments. The contests hadnt even been close. With no Ngidi, Steyn, Nortje and bunch of has beens like Duminy, Morris and out of form Amla, the script wont be changing. De Kock and du Plessis can only do damage control. If we wont get a washout, its gonna be a damn squib of a game. Only interest is to see India's starting XI and their form given they start so late. Nz v Bang will be a close contest than this.

Sgattick10 Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 WTF is this? Cricket World Cup: Indian pacer Jasprit Bumrah undergoes doping test at Southampton World No. 1 subjected to routine random drug test ahead of World Cup opener 16:35 June 4, 2019 India's Jasprit Bumrah prepares to bowl in the nets during a training session ahead of their Cricket World Cup match against South Africa at Ageas Bowl in Southampton, on Monday, June 3, 2019. Image Credit: AP A.K.S. Satish, Senior Pages Editor Dubai: When the preparations and the euphoria preceding the Men in Blue’s opening match against South Africa hots up and the players putting in their blood, sweat and toil for the testing times ahead, top Indian pacer Jasprit Bumrah was subjected to a different test off the field on Monday. The world No. 1 in ODI, who is set to lead India’s bowling attack in the World Cup, was selected for the random test conducted by World Anti-Doping Body-accredited agency at Southampton, according to PTI. Any player could be called in to provide the sample at the International Council Cricket showpiece as the world governing body has put stringent measures in place after becoming a signatory with Wada in 2006. The Indian, who has rating points of 774 as the top bowler in the world, has been the hot topic of discussion after creating a storm since his debut on international stage. The deceptive bowler with an awkward action has the capacity to catch the rival batsman by surprise with his deceptive pace, while also disguising his slower ones with ease to fox them. Though the results are not out yet on the drug test, it’s safe to presume that Bumrah will spearhead Indian bowling attack in the opener against South Africa at Rose Bowl in Southampton on Wednesday. Since the doping controls came into existence in cricket, only a handful of players have failed the drug tests. Australian legendary leg-spinner Shane Warne was one of the high-profile players to test positive for banned diuretic ahead the 2003 World Cup and was sent back home from South Africa. Australia won the trophy despite missing Warne, defeating India in the final. Former Pakistan speedster Shoaib Akhtar suffered a similar fate on the ever of the Champions Trophy match in 2006 for banned anabolic steroid nandrolone and had to pull out of the squad. Former New Zealand skipper and current Chennai Super Kings coach Stephen Fleming was also banned for three matches after smoking recreational drugs with a few fellow Blacks Caps in 1993-94. The latest one to pay the price for recreational drugs was England opener Alex Hales, who twice failed the tests for party drugs and was dropped from the initial squad announced for the World Cup.

Haarkarjeetgaye Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Here you go guys. This is another "gote munh mein aa gaye" moment Found it. Here is the article and below extract - http://www.thecricketmonthly.com/story/1055869/the-fly-in-the-ointment The highlights reel spins its way to Bridgetown 1989, where Shastri was at the receiving end of one of the greatest sledges ever. It was on a venomous Kensington Oval track, against an attack led by Malcolm Marshall, Curtly Ambrose and Courtney Walsh, abetted by Ian Bishop, the most recent addition to the overstocked arsenal of brutal pace. Facing a 56-run deficit in the first innings, Shastri came out to bat with India 0 for 1 (Sidhu). Marshall, in the midst of a masterclass in the lethal beauty that is true pace, produced a ripper that bored into Shastri's groin. The fielders crowded around Shastri as he writhed on the ground. Desmond Haynes bent low and, in a voice of infinite concern, said "Ravi, that girl you were to date tonight, can I have her number? You are no use to her now, maan!" beetle, tweaker and The Hound 3 Link to comment
