Is this series finished, they won three and we have won one. Why are you jumping the gun.

Just one small matter you left out. They actually drew those two series. Your favourite coach is going to get his first whitewash. Wasn't he also a team director when AUS pummeled India in 2-0 series win in 2015?

I didn't mean our victories. I just meant how unfair that India was not given tours in ENG,SA,AUS and NZ for last 2 years and based on home performances they became no 1. It does not include away victories over depleted sides like WI,BAN & SL.

 

Do you accept that these ranking never reflect true colors? :cantstop:

They do reflect true color. Don't come and give us this nonsense , How many away tests has pakistan played in last 5 years and compare that to India.

 

Pakistan is a crappy team which is no match to India.

Reverse batting order never works, dumbest idea ever, our tail won't survive 10 balls in these conditions

Not a complete reversal per se. They may or may not survive 10 balls, but in these sort of rain interrupted spells of cricket under treacherous conditions rather lose them than the specialist bats. And they may survive more than 10 balls because they aren't good enough to edge many of the balls that consume the more accomplished batsmen. On the brighter side if they offer some resistance opponent bowlers may get frustrated and lose their rhythm and line-length. I certainly believe today was that sort of extreme situation where this idea could have been tried out. A 10/3 scoreboard with Ishant, Kuldeep and Che dismissed would have been brighter reading than the predicament where we find ourselves right now.

He promised at that time in two years time this team will become world beaters.If you want to add those matches under him then in SEA excluding New Zealand we are 1-5.

When was last time they won in England again. When he gets whitewashed we will talk about it.

 

Did I say he is my favorite coach , losing 2-0 where one test could have gone anywhere is not getting pummeled.

Actually the 2016 series against pak , England served some flattest pitches.that oval pitchwhere uk khan scored double ton  was flat as a pan cake.

Thats cos Pak batsmen are **** even on flat pitches , Inthe end you cannot blame the pitch . Our bowling has been screwing up more than our batting but dosent get the blame cos bowling out opposition for ~300 is seen as a big achivement for us being used big totals back home  . its actually not , if you concede 300 on a 220 par pitch is no different from the batsmen puttin up 160 ? Add to that our genius mgmt goes in with a batsmen short on such pitches . you really cant blame for Rahane not playing his natural game when he knows hes immediately followed by DK/Saha .

That is true but in these conditions I doubt if any of our jokers can even last 25 deliveries which he did :cantstop:

Lasting deliveries and not scoring runs.. Lol.. Even Dhoni can do this. So why not recall Dhoni than having this shyt who cant even manage decent strike rate on flat tracks?

Any team that get canned by SL in their own backyard when they were at the lowest point in the last 15 years is a shitty team. Suck it up butter cup. Just be  glad you didn't lose to Ireland as well. You guys had our nervy moment in that test as well.

So now you are suggesting I am a pakistani?
