Keep doing this for 5-6 years and you might get an opportunity ... all the elders are still there .. you understand, no?" good job, young 'un... now migrate to england and become an int'l player soon. I hear that they are welcoming S. Asian players readily into the team to make up for the Rafiq scandal. BacktoCricaddict 1 Link to comment

If they allow him to waste more time in domestic that is a travesty. Reward his consistency. he's like a cross between pappu (aravinda) de silva and ranatunga. Link to comment

Vijy Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 (edited) if not for sarfaraz, even an innings defeat for Mumbai might have been conceivable. he will be needed once again in 2nd innings because MP looks headed for a big lead. the other thing I wish we could see from him is that he bowls a bit more, like he used to in U19. being a part-timer in tests would help since most of Ind top 6 batters in tests do not bowl.

BacktoCricaddict Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 Hmm ... does MP's 368/3 take some sheen away from SK's knock? Or is the Dhawal Kulkarni-led Mumbai attack that much more innocuous than MP's attack? Link to comment
cowboysfan Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 surely he is better than Vihari.why have we persisted with him for so long with no returns? Link to comment

Mumbai's attack is very poor. for MP, datey is solid and gaurav yadav can be quite sharp. kumar karthikeya bowled badly here, but is otherwise a solid spinner. overall, MP attack arguably better and pitch also had a bit more assistance on day 1 Mosher 1 Link to comment
