Yes.

i'm listening to Ward, Nasser, Atherton, and Butcher, sounds pretty balanced to me, Atherton seems keen to insinuate IPL reasons but i think it's fair coverage

Boria raising the exact points that I was yesterday. What the f**k is the team admin manager doing in all this? How are multiple Team India members attending unsanctioned events? 

Yes because this is the marching order given to all paid PR. Defend kohli at any cost and blame other poor people like some admin manager

 

Now i understand why you suddenly from nowhere started using admin manager term and used him as scapegoat. Now every social media paid PR has started using admin manager term and scapegoating him. Makes sense

Unsanctioned by whom? BCCI has no jurisdiction on travelling Team India. Only ECB has…

Not really. They don't have enough players to field. All fast bowlers were close contact of the physio and would have got quarantined. How would they have fielded an XI?

There was no quarantine orders, the agreement was if players clear tests they will play. Both board had agreed but players were scared

no i didn't - share already! i think banging on about IPL is a bit cheeky but it's a fairly nuanced discussion

[Forward Defence]

How about squeezing it in Australia before the Ashes. England will get a practice game and we will fancy our chances with Bumrah Siraj Ashwin Pant and co

I told u

 

0.28am The series is still live! The BCCI says that the two boards will look to reschedule the Test... remarkable scenes...

 

"In lieu of the strong relationship between BCCI and ECB, the BCCI has offered to ECB a rescheduling of the cancelled Test match. Both the Boards will work towards finding a window to reschedule this Test match."

 

Wow, that's a development. Quite how and when they will do this remains to be seen. Although India are due to return to the UK in 2022 for three T20Is and three ODIs, so there's some feasibility there. Apart from anything else, James Anderson will be 40 years by then...

 

As will the Ind retirement home, will be a year older and even more knackered/past-it

You would be naïve to think the IPL does not have any impact on the decision making in this instance... BCCI and the players both do no want to compromise playing the IPL and they are happy get this match cancelled. Cant blame the English media for picking this point up

You will suddenly see "admin manager" being used on all social media and TV channels, a role you wouldn't even know till now and which is just a rubber stamp position having no authority over players 

 

PR has been given its marching orders and scape goat has been identified for media narrative. Now lets see if BCCI goes with this or actually has some ball to do something

Also stokes, archer etc will be back

Nothing would give me more pleasure if the IPL was cancelled. Teach the mercenaries a lesson.

India will be in Johannesberg then

If you want to know how stupid players are, just look at Shami when he went to cut his birthday cake.

 

Innocent mistake, yes. Still a stupid thing to do.

[Gollum]

Asterisk next to 2-1 against the weakest English test side in the last2 decades, that is the legacy of Kohli's team.

Be real . That is your only agenda which you try to nicely cover by showing fake concern for humanity and all.

How playing this test today would compromise IPL?
