nevada Posted July 30, 2021 Posted July 30, 2021 Nice thought, that's about it. WTC final was the preview of what's in store.
Norman Posted July 30, 2021 Posted July 30, 2021 Ghanta greatness! Gollum, rollingstoned, SK_IH and 1 other 1 2 1
SK_IH Posted July 30, 2021 Posted July 30, 2021 Ghanta, absolute ghanta. rollingstoned, Gollum and Number 3
The Realist Posted July 30, 2021 Posted July 30, 2021 (edited) Lol greatness. Hyperbole much. Won nothing under Kohli (getting hammered every series in Eng not exactly something to be proud of) so unsure which heights have been reached and the most significant series victory in Aus was won without him. EDIT: Its an opinion piece by some unknown Sharma so file in bin. Edited July 30, 2021 by The Realist
SK_IH Posted July 30, 2021 Posted July 30, 2021 Pisses in his pants if there is 150 plus chase in test matches, ye ATG banega, Loli Gollum, Banton and express bowling 3
rageaddict Posted July 30, 2021 Posted July 30, 2021 Lol look at the expectations of the fans. Nothing less than a victory would satisfy them. England would remember what kind of pitches India prepared during their last clash where matches were getting over in 2-3 days. Now it's their time to take revenge.
Ankit_sharma03 Posted July 30, 2021 Posted July 30, 2021 This n SA tour, dnt think they ll get better chances then this.

Making such pitches is giving opposition a better chance , even england won 1st test in india as pitch crumbled

Norman Posted July 30, 2021 Posted July 30, 2021 Hearing that England could prepare relatively flatter wickets for this series to prepare for the Ashes. And wickets will also take some turn in late English summer.. If we hold onto catches and win a few of those coin tosses, we can definitely win this. But that's big if..

In a chase Rishab Pant gives me more confidence than any Indian player in history.

ShoonyaSifar Posted July 30, 2021 Posted July 30, 2021 What a poorly written article. More like a paid advertorial.

If they do this, they will lose to India this series and will anyways lose the Ashes too as their record is poor in Australia in last two tours.

Issue is Most in County and ECB give more importance to gate revenues and media earnings than these things. ECB is struggling for cash so are the counties. Its not like India who ll if in need of cash arrange a series with windies and lanka and get cycle agarbathis to sponsor it and get the cash. Even In Last series pitches were pretty good except lords and even then if india had won two Tosses or got Curran out or played Moeen better could have won the series..
