If India fails to win atleast one test in Aus, we don't deserve to play in the final anyways

Yep also team came back from two Whitewashes from NZ tour but still no one was held accountable.

This tour is big for India in so many ways.

India will be lucky to draw a test match v Australia this summer.

 

They will wish they had covid.

Should not start the test series..  Imagine if he breaks down midway in the game.   Saini should be the third pacer for Pink ball Test.  Ishant has to play the practice game before even consideration. 

[Serpico]

All 42 wickets of Mitchell Starc in Pink ball tests. 

 

42 wickets in 7 tests.. this is what is waiting for Rohit, Che and Kohli in Adelaide. They handled mitch well in last series but its going to be different ball game this time

I fear Starc doing the same thing to Sharma that Steyn did in 2014.

Rohit hasn't improved a bit against moving ball.

I don't mind Hindi Comm panel as they suck ba** anyway.  But what is the need of stacking up these useless boring fellows in english comm box?  Nick Knight I mean wtf.  Why can't they run the same comm feed of Channel 7.  Sony is just pathetic.  Guys like KP,  Slater,  Mark Nicholas & even Clarke are better than these nobodies

Gents in UK - Apart from BT Sports, any desi channel showing the matches? Will Sony Max be showing?

How can India not produce good commentators and umpires? At least we had the world's best umpire at some point in Venkatraghavan, but can't remember a single good commentator. Not even an SC thing, Sanga has developed into such a world class voice behind the mic....funny, confident (no inferiority complex), sharp analysis, focuses on cricket, unbiased, even his accent has improved. We are still stuck with these Manjus and Bhogles .

Cricket Australia (CA) have swiftly moved players and staff from Western Australia, Tasmania and Queensland, who are part of the Australian men's ODI and T20I squads, to Sydney today (November 17) after the three states closed its borders with South Australia (SA) following a spike in COVID-19 cases in the state.

I don't understand this criticism. Do you want desi commentors to pretend that they are pommies/americans? What is wrong with commentating with their natural accent? To me Sanga's accent sound very unnatural like he is putting a conscious effort to change it

Sanga used to fake his accent earlier, that was annoying because it sounded fake. Now it sounds more normal. I don't have problem with thick desi accent, as long as you aren't faking it unconvincingly. Now he spends more time in UK and his fake accent has improved. 

 

Even Mahela said so https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/_/id/20590032/we-all-made-fun-accent

No idea mate. I am hoping it will be shown in UK Hotstar but doubt Sky Sports will let them.
