Match ka mujrim

[sarcastic]

Who is the main cause of India's defeat today.... Whose innings or whose bowling spell or whose dropped catches lead to India's loss today?

The contenders are probably fast bowlers today who seemed to have given runs to Australians like they were donating their personal jagirs. 

[ShoonyaSifar]

Kohli and his pathetic leadership. 

[zen]

Let’s accept that Aus played much better cricket .... and that Ind needs to develop the youngsters so they can step up their game esp. since some of the experienced players could be fading away 

[Straight Drive]

Rahul, Sharma, Kohli, Bumrah, Shami, Jadeja, Iyer.

Also add Starc, Cummins, Warner and Finch...played a big hand in India's loss.

Simple - Aussie played better cricket....

They were better in every dept.

Also pitches changes a bit under light so they had better conditions to ....during day it was a bit spungy. 

 

But they were far better....lets credit them.

What about dhawan was batting at 3 on 20 balls at start riding his luck as aussies were missing chances to get him out. Later he cashed in....but did waste new ball when it was easy to score

[tweaker]

Kohli and his captaincy

 

Rohit and Rahul should have opened

Saini in place of Shardul

Chahal in place of Jadeja

Dubey in place of Dhawan

 

The team should have been

 

Rohit

Rahul

Virat

Iyer

Pant

Dubey

Kuldeep

Shami

Chahal

Bumrah

Saini

 

When the top order fails, run from  Shardul will not matter.

 

Virat should not try to enforce his buddies Dhawan and Jadeja in the team.

 

Hope he has learned from his mistakes ,but the changes by him will be

 

Chahal in place of Kuldeep

Jadhav in place of Iyer

[sandeep]

Needed 340+ to have a shot at defending.  Toss had a big impact on this game.  

 

Dhawan started very poorly, but his innings actually highlighted one of his assets - his mental strength.  Against a quality bowling unit, even though he was bogged down - 2(18) at one stage, with Rohit already out, he was able to claw out of that hole and ended up contributing to the team.  Sure, he should have gone on to put up a proper big score, but he's not as good as Rohit or Virat at doing that consistently.  

 

I fell asleep in the middle of that Dhawan/Rahul partnership so didn't watch their entire innings in detail, or Kohli's.  But on this wicket, clearly our top order failed today.  Rohit is what he is, and he's earned the right to fail on the odd day.  Purely looking at the scoreboard, I'm most disappointed with Iyer.  He had 20 overs to bat, should have put his hand up and made a proper contribution.  

 

But it is what it is. 

 

I do not blame the bowlers, they were 100 runs short of a defendable total, and then the Aussies were clinical in putting the game away.  Bumrah is rusty.  Its ok.  **** happens.

 

I just hope we win the toss in the next ODI and play well.

Dhawan did not cover his sr, 80 is pathetic in mdoern day cricket. His runs were more valuable than his pathetic strike rate today.

That's your bias talking.  It was not "easy to score" early.  Aussies line and length was immaculate up front.  

 

But Mr. armchair analyst has decided that Dhawan has to go, so all facts have to be twisted to suit confirmation biases.  

 

 

[Ajju]

Squad selection pathetic did nt select Dhoni

oh help urself n go watch the match thread i mentioned he played well . But for a huge phase he was also slow which ended up with a s/r of 81 not good 

 

Aussie were brilliant in middle overs as well specially agar 

the best time on wkt was new ball coz it was a double pace wkt in afternoon and he was going slow . Its also a fact that he was riding his luck 

 

yes he needs to go if he cant play next wc doesnt mean i dnt value how great player he is......

[Stan AF]

Aussies should win this 3-0.

ghanta 340 ka wkt tha....it was spungy in afternoon 

once set batsman got out it was tough for all new batters.....iyer, pant all struggled to get going

 

A wkt under light becomes a lil different 

[ganeshran]

Dhawan, Rahul - at least one of them should have converted 

 

Seam bowling unit

[sergio04]

India needs Dhoni in next match in place of Pant.

yup both not converting was a big problem.....new players werent finding it easy to get the timing in afternoon

[Shaukat]

Australia ny padosion ko kitna maara 

Padosion kahan kahan dard ho raha hy

[express bowling]

This was a 330+ pitch.

 

We scored 255 

 

This loss is primarily due to our batsmen ... all of them.

Bowlers were below par.

 

But 255 was never defendable on this pata pitch against a decent batting side.

 

If we had scored 330, we would have seen a different result.
