Quite quite. Don’t be so explicit. You will be gobbled up by feminazis here for stating realities of practical real life. A particular moderator may suspend your account temporarily if they don’t agree with such things. That’s how things roll here.

In football would have been sacked ages ago.

 

Only in cricket do they accept such continuous crap performances.

Can you name that moderator and instances of accounts being suspended in past?

When threads get deleted or someone gets suspended  without fair explanation by mods or seeing both sides of the story  - unless one is part of the admin group how will one know which mod has done it ? Just how ?

And I have seen the opposite in a LOT of cases in America where I live .

 

With 2 earning spouses and much greater security, the focus becomes more on personal life and raising a family than being an ambitious workaholic before marriage.

Way to take something out of context. This is what happens when you watch too much of Arnub Gooswami I guess. He never said the team lost because of bowlers. He said pitch was good to bat on but batting order crumbled. So when England batted, it was a different ball game as they were just chasing the game, meaning bowlers were not as effective because there was no pressure on batsmen.

 

Obviously, if you want to look at anything negatively, it will seem that way to you.

I’ve gotten suspended for a few months previously, don’t know when exactly.

 

i have seen consistently that provokers who take a difference of opinion personally and respond with personal insults  are ignored and mods delete responses to insulting provocations 

 

For the 2nd time, how does a member know which mod has deleted a thread or deleted a post or suspended a member ?

Did he even once acknowledge that the batting has been underperforming for a while ?  
 

Show me one damn instance. 
 

he cannot criticize the batting or drop anyone else in the batting because then he would have to drop himself.

I'm pretty sure he admitted batting failed when they didnt do well. But there's no point obviously to pick on individuals in press conferences. You either admit you had a collective batting or bowling failure.

she probably wears the pants in the relationship, whereas he does the opposite. It is rather amusing to see the loud0mouthed and abusive player on the cricket field being all meek and submissive in his personal life.

Have the batters not failed for last several matches ? Show me where he admitted collective batting failure which is obvious to all unless you have been watching a different sport.

 

What are the averages of Rahane, Pujara and Kohli over the last 10 test matches ?

He has  probably made several hundred million dollars or will end making them by virtue of his long term sponsorship contracts/deals as long as he plays for the country.

 

He has already had a golden run for a few years batting wise , captained India for longer than almost everyone.

 

Very little motivation left in him - this is very obvious despite all his "aggression ".

 

He has a glamorous wife who is known as much for her cosmetic enhancing surgeries ( publicly broadcast in Kjo's potty talk show ) as she is known in Bollywood circles for being so talented that she worked with all the 3 " big khans " ( supposedly a great achievement for a starlet ) very early in her career, which no one else was able to do.

 

For a Bollywood outsider to do this in nepotism infested industry like Bollywood, she is clearly knows how to "manage" people.

 

Virat is super easy for her to manipulate.

To answer 2nd question, it's not required to know.

 

Probably a thread is needed where name of banned member and reason for banning can be posted.

All this just makes one respect Sachin even more for what he did, his consistency, his motivation. 

 

How he was able to have a single minded focus to deliver his very best.  He credits his wife  Anjali for taking away all his other tensions while he was on national duty.

 

Ditto with the great Vishy Anand's wife Aruna. Always prodigiously talented, he credits her entirely for allowing his single minded focus on chess.

 

A life partner can make or break your career if you are a celebrity sportsman.

I do not remember when exactly, atleast 1 -1.5 years back.

Age had caught up with him. Not everyone can keep the standard. He knows it thats why he keeps giving chances to likes of Pujara and Rahane to make him not look the worst batsman out there.

I am not even going to. Good luck kohli. Good luck on your future endeavours. You just do what you have to. Enjoy your retirement with team india. 

 

Good government job you got there. Well done boys.
