In praise of ROHIT for this win and many others

[sage]

There is something about Mr. Sharma that the universe and space bends towards. This sort of win would never have happened under Virat's captaincy. Rohit is always winning tosses, he is always presiding over magical moments, 50-50 decisions always go the way of the team he is captaining. With Rohit I finally feel like we have a team capable of winning and coming ahead in those close encounters, no one can manufacture good will like he (those three decisive runs of the bowled free hit goes under Hitmans account).  I have not felt more optimistic in an ICC tournament for India in many many years

[Lord]

so its goodwill now

If anything, they shouldn't have got close. Restricting them below 140 was a possibly. His field placements were not good.

Reminiscent of how Yusuf Pathan and Ashwin picked SRT that night at the Wankhede

Lulz has to start batting. Play a big knock or come down the order 

[R!TTER]

We should be smart, why the * are Ash & any other bowler with poor fielding skills not out subbed after their quota/spell is over? Eng do this 10x in a *ing test!

Needs to get his finger out and perform as has very little mileage left given his age and tubbyness.

 

Batting today was limp and field placings when captaining were amateur.

Yea he promised a change of attacking start. It was worse than the regular tuk tuk start.

[Lord]

gotta love his selfless attitude

 

Gets out early in every crunch game so that Kohli and others can become heroes

It's is true. There are many intangibles in cricket as in life. This is one of those. Really smart people who understand this look beyond stats and optics. Having said that though this team selection and loss of Bumrah and Jadeja will be hard to compensate. 

 

I would say SF will be good result.
