Being lazy elegant the way he bats is not equivalent to lazy work ethic. He uses minimum energy to get maximum results, all his sixes are timing and no power as said by him. maniac 1 Link to comment
Gollum Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 No need to get hyper-excited. Long way to go, today a job well done, more of a relief tbh. Next 10 days will be tough with Aus, NZ, Pak lined up. Rohit impressive, KLR did a decent job and a great bowling effort...nice way to shake off the rust. Suhaan, SrinjayDutta and philcric 3 Link to comment

You cannot consider ball falling in noman's land as luck. Luck was what ROot and Hafeez got. Bhai tu itna jaldi argue kyu karne lagta hai,chill man,never did i under rate him like others do here,i was just saying he should play the way he has been doing all this while as he is a vital cog in this line up..just chill and savour the moment Edited June 5, 2019 by Suhaan Link to comment

And even then, play both! When was I against playing both. I believe Kuldeep better than Chahal and I still stand by it. Kuldeep needs to increase a bit of pace though. Very very slow.

JourneyMan Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 It was gritty but the job got done. Here is the good news. With Rohit, Virat, Rahul and MSD in the side , it is enough that one or two of the batsmen get their eye in and play a long innings. The margin of error is somewhat wider than for a team like SA where hardly anyone can play a long innings. Pandya is a good option to have in the death overs. Spin bowling is a weakness for a lot of teams, so playing Chahal is a no brainer. Overall a decent start to the tournament. Link to comment
Real McCoy Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 We won but won ugly. Good game for Bumrah, Chahal, and Rohit. There should be more improvements rather than sitting on this win. Australians will be ruthless. We had them at 89/5 and let them score 220+. We should have used the spinners or seamers rather than going with Jadhav. That let them off the hook. Pitch wasnt easy so should have given Bumrah and Bhuvi more slips when they did come back for the second spell. Our batting did the best out of the dropped chances and batted conservatively because of the wicket. Also why are England giving us dodgy pitches while they play on roads. They got owned the other day against padosis. This is what happens when you try these dodgy tactics. SrinjayDutta, bahubali, Gollum and 1 other 4 Link to comment
Adi BB Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 I thought this was a sensible chase after the early jitter and the way the ball was moving . India never looked at sea and I think we got a bit complacent in the end of both thr winnings, honestly we would have won this match long ago had they been skittled under 200 AK007 and nitinbwj 1 1 Link to comment

Wasn't ugly at all.50/2 chasing 227 ..i don't see any other team winning this against the quality of the bowling and the tricks of the pitch.Sorry,but this gave me immense satisfaction. profster and AK007 2 Link to comment
Popular Post OpeningBatsman Posted June 5, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 5, 2019 Looking at the negativity and wrist slitting here, one would think Indian are some bottom ranked team which gets thrashed by all. We've won almost everything in the last 2 years including away series' in Aus SA NZ... Damn S_pace, jalebi_bhai, SrinjayDutta and 9 others 2 10 Link to comment
Vilander Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 good hard game. India will beat Aus in a similar game. Need to see how they go against batting teams in flat decks. Link to comment

However the problem is most of us expect us to be a dominant side like WI and Aus of yesteryears with the talent pool and other resources available. The negativity is more to with being underwhelmed than being disappointed and dejected nitinbwj and OpeningBatsman 1 1 Link to comment
