My money on Pant & Jaddu in 1st innings to score a 50 each.

West Indies should be careful here. They lose points for reduced overrates in WTC.

Here you go,

 

Over-rate calculations

Over rates will be calculated the same way in which it is currently used, with an expectation of 15 overs per hour. However, the playing conditions have introduced some new exclusions for when a team bowls out a side quickly or does not bowl more than 60 overs in the match.

• When a side is bowled out in 60 overs or less, and the bowling team has not exceeded the over-rate limit, that innings will not be included in the bowling team's match over-rate calculation.

• When a side bowls out the opposition twice, and in doing so does not complete more than 120 overs in total, that team will be exempt from any over-rate penalties.

• When a team doesn't bowl more than 60 overs in a match, that team will be exempt from any over-rate penalties.

Over-rate penalties

As previously announced, captains will no longer bear a bigger brunt for slow over-rates than the rest of the members of his team, and there will be no danger of suspension for being behind the required rate. Instead, all players will face equal fines, and teams will lose WTC points if they are found to be behind the rate.

• For each over a team is found to be short, a Penalty Over will be incurred

• For each Penalty Over, there will be two WTC points deducted from the team's total

• All players will be fined the same as the captain for over-rate offences - 20% of their match fee per Penalty Over, up to a maximum of 100%

• There will be no escalation in penalties for repeat offences

That is difference between Smith and Kohli, he got rattled too easily here.

Smith also got rattled after getting hit on the hand. He got hit on the neck the same over.

made runs against Sa also in 2013....that attack had steyn, philander, morkel , kallis and kohli was very young in his career.....he scored in 3 out of 4 innings . Those pitches were tough

[Ankit_sharma03]

Apna kohli to ishq main lattu hai.....even in his interview against Viv talking about anushka 

[adi B]

I am thinking about the windies batsmen who have to face shami ,bumrah and Ishant!

[Hakuna Matata]

After a long long time Rahul scoring some imp runs in test cricket.

Rahane gets a start and this is what we get on Cricbuzz :

 

Quote

Ajay Rath says: I really at times don't understand that why Ajinkya Rahane can't perform in other formats. He is so classy and also has the game to up the ante. Hope he does well and forces the selectors to have a look at him.

I swear all these cricketers have PR bots ready to make such comments whenever they do well.

Lol King Kohli, cometh the hour cometh the failure
