We used to chase 350’s for fun in India against Aus. He was called chasemaster for a reason. That chase was setup by the real big 3, everyone forgets that!
Stan AF Posted July 10, 2019 Posted July 10, 2019 Williamson is also a better captain than Kohli. He has achieved more with the limited resources at his disposal. ThePhenomenal1 1
New guy Posted July 10, 2019 Posted July 10, 2019 Hope this leads to Sharma being captain ThePhenomenal1 1

SK_IH Posted July 10, 2019 Posted July 10, 2019 Saala chewtiya, I was so wrong in my backing his supposed legend, He is a certified choker and a panauti. He is not destined to win anything, time to move on from this panauti @Gollum ThePhenomenal1, Stan AF and Vijy 3

I'd rather see him phased out of the ODI squad since he will be 34-35 in the next WC and I don't think he has much to offer. ThePhenomenal1 1
Gambit Posted July 10, 2019 Posted July 10, 2019 Sachin rightly gets the flak for failing in two World Cup finals but had 50s in 1996 SF, 2003 SF, 2011 QF and 2011 SF. Those were high pressure games and he delivered. While Virat has done this in T20 WCs, his performance in ODI WCs has been pathetic. Today neither was the pitch treacherous nor the target high. He should have taken us home. Vijy, Stan AF and SK_IH 2 1

He should have taken us home. 2011 QF & SF are all time great knocks. QF: Came among the three 50s in the chase and was instrumental in setting the good start. SF: As ugly as that knock was it was the difference between a win and a loss. you can't go the finals without winning the semis. He was rightly the MOTM. Edited July 10, 2019 by Stan AF
