Prabhdeep Singh Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 I agree with you. When I was younger I used to wish India win toss and bat. Loved how they played spin bowlers, spin bowlers were never allowed to settle. Only good thing about the current team is bowling attack. Link to comment

Prabhdeep Singh Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Some of the comments above praising gritty innings by Vihari is beyond belief. It is 300-6 not 30-6, surely you need to put pressure on the bowlers. Link to comment

This batting unit is dull and boring. Right from top to bottom. It’s a snoozefest. On the other hand, I wouldn’t mind watching Bumrah bowl a few overs..absolute thrill and joy !! Dont be silly. This is great batting on a good bowling wicket. Application and composure and grafting hard to score runs is so heartening to see from Indian batsman. You can always watch the bilateral Kitply Cups and IPL if you want to watch "enterprising" cricket. Edited August 31, 2019 by kubrickian SrinjayDutta 1 Link to comment

Prabhdeep Singh Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Did Viv Richards play IPL. No he did not. He did not play like this. India should be aspiring to be great 'Entertaining Team' that wins with style. India definitely has the talent, change of mindset required. Link to comment

putrevus Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Very boring and uninspiring batting today from India.They need to put some pressure back on to the bowlers. Link to comment

Even Viv Richards never used to slog or play shots when the ball was not there to be hit. You apply yourself and score when the scoring opportunity comes. If you think batsmen attack bowlers willy nilly in tests when the bowling is good or when there is help for bowlers, you dont know what you are talking about. Link to comment

Prabhdeep Singh Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 I agree, you can't attack every ball. There needs to be balance between attack and defence. However, you can't be only defending all the overs. Link to comment
