Playing a test match without a physio is a totally different ball game tho. The entire saga has been messy. I heard BCCI wanted the game to continue but players didn't. Was it players or just Kohli? if it was LOI,even ODI, it would have gone on. 5 day Test can't be compared with LOI or few hours flight or a Euro game etc express bowling 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't blame players to not want to play the test after the only physio has gone down. But it does not look good from the outside with so many theories floating.

Why would players demand delayed Test if they wanted to head off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their decisions are never based on COVID as much as some would like to sell us. They know it. It is going to be hypocritical no matter how much some dance around this.

We dont know what happened behind doors for the 5th test so its all guesswork at this point. The way players have mingled (if the pictures are to be believed) just doesnt make sense.

Yeah, it was sad to see SRH bat him below Abhishek Sharma and Rashid Khan in some games earlier this season He should bat at 4, will be mostly useless down the order.. They should drop Pandey down the order Vivek92 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
