Popular Post Laaloo Posted September 11, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted September 11, 2018 Regardless of results or whether there was pressure or no pressure or against "tired" bowlers, this partnership was awesome. Partnership of 204 overseas on a 5th day pitch is awesome. Rahul shot of 6 off of broads short ball and then that swat over mid on to bring up his 100 was majestic. Pant cutting and flicking against broad was so pleasing to watch. It was a high quality partnership. One you can watch on highlights for years to come. Really enjoyed today after I was pissed off in the fourth test. to Rahul and Pant. Fearless batting Vilander, Number, sscomp32 and 15 others 3 2 12 1 Link to comment

Refreshing to see this counterattack that briefly gave England the jitters for a period of time. UrmiSinhaRay, beetle, Adi BB and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment

Fearless batting this is what could have happened if they played without inhibitions in every game, i think they will learn a lot from this. UrmiSinhaRay and beetle 1 1 Link to comment

Laaloo Posted September 11, 2018 Author Share Posted September 11, 2018 Just think about it. 204 runs in partnership of a day 5 pitch. Most teams get rolled out for sub 100 runs on a day 5 pitch. See what happens when Batsmen attack. It unsettles the bowlers and they can't keep bowling that same line and length. Kudos to Rahul for taking the initiative and for Pant to keep hitting. raki05, UrmiSinhaRay and beetle 1 2 Link to comment
Global.Baba Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 Pant is such a clean hitter of the ball. How the hell is he not part of the T20 and ODI set up I am not even going the Dhoni bashing route but clearly better than Rayudu,Pandey,Jadhav etc express bowling, Mosher, beetle and 5 others 1 7 Link to comment

rtmohanlal Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 more than any thing ,this shows the importance of a left-right combination at the crease. And the advantage of this is not minimal either because it is not at all easy for a running in fast bowler to adjust his line continuously in such a scenario. And Pant ....he achieved what even an ATG like Dhoni could never achieve, a 100+ in SENA....that too in his first series before even he turns 21. Hope the team management manages him well for the benefit of the team. Not so convinced with Rahul though. beetle 1 Link to comment

An avg: of 38 in tests for a wicket keeper is a ' very good' category performance. And add his legendary ODI status and being a highly successful captain in ODIs & being a great WK , he is right up there. Shunya, speedheat, Rasgulla and 1 other 2 2 Link to comment
nevada Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 It was great to see the fight displayed by both. It would have been nice if Vihari had also chipped in by hanging around for an hour so. We might have even managed to draw the match. beetle 1 Link to comment
jusarrived Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 The only disappointment is we again dint get the result in our favour , must be the third time in recent years we have come close to a famous win chasing but ended up losing . raki05 1 Link to comment

raki05 Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 (edited) Can someone list out dhoni great performance in odi in sena countries or in world event against non minows. I consider him the lucky charm and luckiest man alive after ponting and I give him that as he got a great team and players and won almost all major event but his atg status in odi is quite debatable with not a single century outside Asia.
