Peshust Posted October 10, 2019 Posted October 10, 2019 (edited) Mayank seems to have fortitude to weather difficult spells....good for stability in Indian batting opening. Edited October 10, 2019 by Peshust express bowling 1
Mosher Posted October 10, 2019 Posted October 10, 2019 2 sixes in a row from Mayank. express bowling 1
Mosher Posted October 10, 2019 Posted October 10, 2019 Back to back 100's from Mayank. Excellent batting. express bowling 1

Saha has got an MoM for two unbeaten unbeaten half-centuries (so purely for batting) against New Zealand on a green Eden Gardens track. Saying you can't rely on him for any runs is like saying Pant can't be relied on to take any catches (that is only true compared to Saha, not on an absolute scale).

shychipmunk Posted October 10, 2019 Posted October 10, 2019 Virat striking at 23 per 100 balls, needs to show some intent, can learn something from the way mayank & pujara batted! SrinjayDutta 1
putrevus Posted October 10, 2019 Posted October 10, 2019 Case should be made for Rahane being out of the team in matches played in India.Horses for courses should apply to batsmen too. express bowling 1
putrevus Posted October 10, 2019 Posted October 10, 2019 Mayank looks best player of spin bowling in this team.Kohli is always suspect against spin bowling. Pandya_Power 1
G_B_ Posted October 10, 2019 Posted October 10, 2019 There is a good bit on this deck for seamers. India reach 400 plus first innings its a very good effort.

I like Saha but I'm not sure if he has scored runs consistently enough to justify playing the extra bowler. Our batting looks thin especially with rahane at 5.

Pandya_Power Posted October 10, 2019 Posted October 10, 2019 Mayank brings the same sort of mental attitude that Viru brought. While these two don't really have an attacking game to take on the short pitched stuff, they put such deliveries out of their mind immediately and don't half-ass it while going after anything in their half. And they absolutely murder spinners. I think Mayank has cemented the opening spot for himself. Can end up with a career average of 50+ and 6k+ runs. SA and Eng are going to be the big tests obviously.
cowboysfan Posted October 10, 2019 Posted October 10, 2019 saffers are in big trouble,this pitch will take turn early and the bounce is really good so both Ash and jaddu will be lethal.

Not only the above stats, he emphatically showed that in the first test where he scored 30* & 40 from top 6 positions too.The only obstacle is the morons in the TM.
Ankit_sharma03 Posted October 10, 2019 Posted October 10, 2019 how was rohit batting ?? just saw highlight n he looked in all trouble when ball was moving

And they absolutely murder spinners. Mayank viciously attacked Nortje who bowled a bouncer barrage at him at 140 k to 150 k on a pitch with some pace and carry. He played 4 really good hook and pull shots, three of which went for boundaries. This forced Nortje to stop using too many bouncers.

To counter the movement he stood outside the crease to Philander. Got out to a very good delivery from Rabada though. express bowling 1
Mosher Posted October 11, 2019 Posted October 11, 2019 Bounce, movement off the seam and turn for spinners. Very good pitch. cowboysfan 1
