u nailed it. And don't worry - no one will take such home truths as an insult on this forum...people here know their cricket, and no one here has brought into the hype that we are like dominant Windies and Aussies of their respective eras. If Kohli had swallowed his ego and worked with Kumble, this team might have developed better by now, but Kohli has just completed 5 years as an international captain - this is as good as it gets for him. Indian cricket will move forward.. 

Kohli has zero legacy in his career as of now. ...offcorse on personal front he has those biletral 100 made against bd, sl and wi and also against aus, SA when main bowlers were missing.

Hasnt been bad. Hasnt been great

 

Ill take the win happily. But ive seen some horrible losses recently. I wont be confident till 20 mins after its official.

 

We decided to also use the batting pitch that india used. 

 

I think when it comes down to being the best. The captain needs to only have power on the field. The coaching staff needs to have more power than a great player. I have no doubt india is a powerhouse in the making. But whats its being marketed as right now. Im not sure its there just yet.

 

Thats not meant as an insult. Im sorry if ppl take it that way

Captain is not the problem for this Indian team.Balance is the problem.Starc ,Cummins can handle the bat.Marcus and Turner can bowl a bit if needed, that balance is very important for any team.Kohli is the best captain for this team.

Looks like all masks coming off...the masks that were created by beating hapless BD, WI & SL at home :agree:

 

This series will only dent the confident before NZ tour.

I think NZ will beat us too easily.

Once again who decides the balance of the team? Bhaichung Bhutia?

 

Kohli has been an LOI captain for nearly 4 years now. Cannot complain about not having the right players. He's never ever bothered to look long term, always prefers short term benefits like winning bilateral series vs WI, BD and SL as if his life depends on it. Many of us have been saying this for months now and saw this coming.

Let Warner bat at 3 and see how he plays. Our captain fool struggles to adjust to bat at 4 instead of his preferred slot of 3 but you expect a lifelong opener to adjust batting at 3.

Are you  kidding me Kohli failed in one match, he hit 77 batting at no 4 in a recent t20 match.Kohli averages 55 at no4  with 97 SR.

Kohli is not the problem.Rahul is the problem , he has no clue on how to build an odi innings.He is playing international cricket from six years.

Whole batting  has been made to be dependent on Rohit and Kohli.

 

Bowling is trash till Bumrah gets better, again because the captain fool backs the wrong choices

Who else is there? Lets say you drop Dhawan or Rahul. Who will you pick instead.

Are fricking kidding me again.How can captain create balance when there is none, he is always robbing Peter to pay Paul.

This series is going to do lot of damage. Not only has it fukked up the scheduling of the Nz tour, but also fukked up the morale. 2020 is going to be rough fellas. 

Look at it positively. Will hopefully wake BCCI up from its slumber and help it clamp down on the pathetic decisions of this TM made purely due to nepotism.

Australian opening pair is showing how is it done.. no ugly hoicks , no harakiri, no brainfarts.. just proper odi cricket.. where u dispatch loose balls nd pick singles at good balls... 

 

When dhawan & rahul were batting.. they had turned it into snooze fest.. it was evident they were playing selfishly for their own place.. that's why rahul who started good.. somehow fluffed by giving extra respect to their spinners.. his biggest downfall is his strike rotation against spinners.. eats hell lot of dot balls.. ultimately getting out to an innocuous delivery.. he isn't an ideal one down or middle order batsman.. doesn't possess singles game..
