India vs West Indies 3rd t20 at Mumbai
ExtremeBrainfade replied to Ankit_sharma03's topic in Cricket Talk
Interesting. Weird that someone would want to adopt/fake a random accent, unless they lived there and picked up a bit of it? -

Should BCCI allow some fringe players to play Big Bash?
ExtremeBrainfade replied to maniac's topic in Cricket Talk
You're right. I don't see a justification for restricting players who have little to no chance of national LOI selection from taking their skills to another place to make a living. Whether they will be hired is beside the point. Maybe the "hitters" won't, but I can easily see some of the bowlers (e.g., Nadeem, Rajpoot, Warrier etc.) being useful in other leagues too. -

Have these guys (Evin Lewis, Brandon King, Hetmeyer etc.) signed their IPL contracts yet? If not, they're earning themselves some serious coin! -
Public "obsessed" with winning ICC trophy
ExtremeBrainfade replied to Cricwala's topic in Cricket Talk
The big question is - is the process right? You can prioritize the process all you want, but backing an effed up process only ensures that you're effed. In tests, it appears that the process is working well, complaints about SA and Eng losses notwithstanding. But in LOIs, the process needs reworking. -

Pretty much every kaptaan plays the "process" card when it suits them. Old trick. -
Those 4 words - for someone my age and having followed Indian cricket since the late '70s - those 4 words are so indescribably beautiful. Never forget - there was a time in Indian cricket when non-spinners opened the bowling and bowled just enough to scuff the ball so the spinners could grip it. From there to here has taken 4 decades, and it means more to oldies like me than most noob fans will ever understand. End of jazbaa.

Potential big hitter. Of course, potential means "he ain't done nothin' yet." But, given his young age, there's always the hope that when the light comes on, he will win T20 matches single-handedly.

In and off itself this is not a big deal, but coming from a serial offender, it bears mentioning. https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/_/id/28098072/smith-apologises-team-mates-dissent-charge So, here's the pattern: Smith effs up, blames brainfade, takes punishment, says sorry, everyone sympathizes, talent wins, he's back, brain fades ... rinse and repeat.
