Something so called fab 4 or 5 couldn't do! and the joburg test that was heroic, fought like bastards and won grudging respect. But this is not the same team. Gollum 1 Link to comment

This decade, Indian cricket was all about cheap wins and fake bravado. What it needs is tough competitions and consistent humiliation to force BCCI to bring the necessary change in the system and get rid of star culture and rampant regional bias. honestly Karnataka team plays with more passion when they represent their state side( misplaced yes from rest of india pov as its just inter state but still), its unbelievable that an athlete training to do this one thing all his life can play so meekly when representing their country.

Vilander Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 i remember the joburg test SA were targeting the bodies Vijay lol copped atleast 120 odd balls most on his body and then KL rahul before kohli and rahane capitalized. That was a gritty game. Cricwala and Gollum 1 1 Link to comment

rtmohanlal Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 this match emphatically underlines the importance of multi format(atleast 2 main format) batsmen with as much possible left-right combo who plays positively & aggressively as much as poosible. At best only one grafter (not Pujara for sure) is required that too at 1 down or as opener Link to comment
VT87 Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 That Ashwin dismissal did not look out ball was drifting towards leg side ,grandma looked more out but ball missed the stump according to Hawkeye. Nz definitely manipulating technology Gollum and Vilander 2 Link to comment

Nz definitely manipulating technology Why does the Baki mullah officiate in India matches? Always biased against India, not even good these days. BCCI power is so overrated, no contact with that terror country means no contact, no half measures. Agree with your observation about ball tracking technology, kuch toh golmaal chal raha hai. Anyone who denies this needs to visit the nearest ophthalmologist. Blundell, Taylor, Grandhomme were plumb out, they were new to the crease then, cost us min 100 runs. Mayank and Ashwin were not out, period. Baki *tard was involved in all those decisions. Edited February 24, 2020 by Gollum rollingstoned 1 Link to comment

Nz definitely manipulating technology may be its because we are Indians but yes i have to agree and in the same breath dismiss it as it will take us no where. May be BCCI needs to be sure if the technology cant be tampered with both those decisions looks down leg but magically the ball was hitting one of the stumps to be umpires call,or may be NZ were just more accurate ( which in itself is very weird, bowlers suddenly dont become inaccurate - Indian pace gang are super accurate) Link to comment

This is the status of our team. Sad how Captain always gets the stick. What did your so called youngster Shaw do ? It's not Kohli's fault. Team selection wasn't wrong atall. Alright he didn't do well with the bat along with pujara this Test. Yes indeed. NZ fans also comment the same way when Williamson sucks dck and then blame is put on blundell. As the captain and so called best batsman in the world, we expect this ratass to at least outscore boult in 2 innings combined. This clown should refrain from making comments in the future. Just winning a couple of home series against useless opponents like lanka, bangloldesh and windies doesn’t make you world beaters. When you travel abroad you’re treated like a bit*h and it’s high time ratass realizes it. I think he does and can’t do anything about it. Link to comment
Sandeep99 Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Aur khelo Bumrah aur shami ko in pointless fcking t20 matches .. ratass deserves all the humiliation he’s receiving. Cricketing iq 0. Chal fck off from Indian cricket Link to comment
Sandeep99 Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 India will be a stronger side the day this brat fcker calls it a day. I don’t remember a single food innings in sena that helped India winning the game. The arrogant prick should try to do that instead of making pointless centuries in India where even useless guys can get them when chasing under lights. Link to comment
VT87 Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 SA third test scored 54 and 43 highest aggregate runs ,Eng third test scored 97 and 103 Link to comment

But choking outside of that series in other SENA countries has been his nemesis. fab 4 haven't won a series in RSA themselves. Granted they played a weak NZ team back in those days.

That cld explain why ball tracking shows ball clipping leg stump for Ashwin, as ball straightened a fraction after pitching whereas to naked eye the initial swing makes u think it will drift down leg.

Southee played in 1 match. it was a regular, fighting NZ team, and we dominated - should have won 2-0. That win alone does'nt get hype, but it means more when taken in conjunction with other SENA performances of that period (1-1 in SA, 1-2 narrow loss in Aus, 1-0 win in Eng) Link to comment

They were fighting with WI to avoid #8 ranking in tests, that should tell the story, no? PS- Guptill was a rubbish test batsman Ankit_sharma03 and Rasgulla 2 Link to comment
