Yea..  came to know about it only yesterday. L Siva made a weird accusation that Ashwin is a stat padder or someone who goes after stats. I know batsmen being called that. Never a bowler. Isn't it a good thing?

How can one even be a star padder being a bowler? Makes no sense. And like you said, being a stat padder being a bowler is actually benefiting the team. Same can't be said about a batsmen

Maybe by bowling defensively and caring more about ER than taking wickets. But yeah that benefits team too.

Still it does not make any sense.Both are from Chennai, normally all TN players are supporters of each other.

Druggie Siva didn't just call Ashwin a star padder. He called him many things and also used vulgar language. Then bluffed about Ashwin calling him and discussing his action.

 

Ashwin retweeted something about Siva being a Sanghi liar or something.

 

Siva is a Sanghi hatemonger who often goes into vulgar tirades about anything and everything...many of us are BJP supporters but Siva goes to the extent of giving threats and all. Probably some mental issue, I remember him talking smack to Rameez Raja couple of years back for no reason, then about Shastri, Sanjay and Sunny and how people made fun of his skin colour, wrongly made him victim and stuff like that. Bigs himself up as well a lot. Mental patient or probably gone back to drugs.

 

BCCI, SS all removed him for some reason. Even guys like WV Raman, Sriram, Murali Karthik don't engage with him, many journos have blocked him. If you see his past tweets you'll see he lives in another world, just delusion.

Taking tail ender wickets and at wrong time, like when the match is already gone or opposition has already scored heavily

One does not simply just take a wicket without bowling well, be it tail or top order. For any bowler to keep a healthy avg, they still have to minimize runs while bowling to top order (and hopefully taking their wicket). Tail wicket is a bonus but should not be frowned upon.

Pak vs Aus warmup match is on today as the weather is clear. Guwahati and Thiruvananthapuram are sure shot washouts. Pathetic weather there.

So what exactly has BCCI gained by introducing cricket to Thiruvananthapuram. Another washout !

Is this common for this time of the year?

Why even schedule a game there in the first place?
