The Realist's Achievements

  1. Chahal: “I have achieved a lot in white-ball cricket, but red-ball is still on my checklist. I still have the dream of getting the tag of 'Test cricketer' next to my name.” @velu @vvvslaxman
  2. Ridiculous selections. Perfect opportunity to try out young/untested players but as usual the same old clique are selected to pad out their stats. Personal milestones > future team success.
  3. Bowling looks pathetic. Where are the young or promising new bowlers? The bowling a decade ago looked lethal compared to this collection of mediocrity & journeymen.
  4. Hidden talent or mediocre journeyman? @vvvslaxman @maniac
  5. Is the bowling cupboard so bare that clamouring for a washed 40+ year old to return? Also selectors and management need to be giving chances to emerging talents not recycling 30 year olds like Krishna.
  6. O runs. 0 wickets. Only 32 so a youngster in Aus. The new Agarkar? @maniac @vvvslaxman
  7. A decent watch but nowhere near as good as the hype would make you believe. But for a small budget horror film has made some staggering money - $450m plus on production budget of just $750k.
  8. Big Ears does his own milking in the dressing room, only reason gets picked. That win was a lucky fluke, Eng totally imploded like they have done several times from winning positions under McCullum/Stokes.
  9. Sharma snubbed again in favour of a nepotism selection. Justice for Rohit? @maniac
  10. Dying sport in an even deader format. Difficult to see cricket being relevant long term when it's being played by so few countries.
  11. Shastri was a glorified cheerleader. Zero tactics or strategy. All he offered was good vibes and drinking sessions with coaching buddies.
  12. Backwards move by England. Fleming has no real test credentials and giving him a 4 year contract is lunacy. Will probably have to pay him off a year down the line when playing crap cricket and the losses mount up.
  13. Only retired from international cricket. Seems rather pointless to make such a statement now when last played in July 2023. Will still be around lighting up IPL with run a ball innings
  14. Rohit as new fielding coach? @maniac @vvvslaxman
