as expected our #8 to #11 cant hold bat .. 

 

arshdeep at #8 ? @The Realist

 

Perennial problem that never gets addressed. Even Eng's 11 Mark Wood can smash 6s for fun

Rinku looks like a Pant clone, batting style is also similar. 

TBH, Rinku is a far better finisher. Pant is a cluch Test player.

There are no stakes as it’s a first game, no pressure match, flat pitch and mediocre 2nd string attack, doesn’t mean much.

2nd string for both.

[Chaos]

Jaiswal, gill, kohli, iyer, pant, rinku in team, thats some fire power. Perfect mix of left and right handers. I dont even know wtf we can do with our bowlers batting. Way arshdeep came out not dressed and the way he ran without diving…moron should be kicked out of the team…. Look how desperate aussie team was. Indian lazy physcial fitness is ridiculous

You missed the silver lining

Rinku the finisher. India was still not winning it despite SkY, Kishan innings. It needed a Rinku finish. 

Wish Rinku could bowl 2/3 overs.

Some dumbarses here want us to keep mourning the final loss for 1 month. Yeah it did hurt and will keep hurting forever but we should look at new players at least. We have T20 WC and a chance to win ICC trophy.

[Chaos]

If dube ever plays for india…selectors should be shot

[nitinbwj]

Mukesh will do well in WI and USA. His avg speed today was over 135. Not bad plus a yorker specialist. Hope he plays all 5 games.

Learned something new today. In olden days if you hit a 4 of no ball it counts 5 runs. Now the six does not count. It is funny. Bowling sides will be happy when no ball is called on a ball that went for Six.

 

Or is it because the win is already achieved and the SIX does not need counting ?

 

Yes.  Remember the Suraj Randiv episode?

[Chaos]

So why are other idiots restong? As if they won the wc. Look at smith, head, maxwell…they still in the team.

[nitinbwj]

Kishan, Jaiswal, Rinku all these left handers will make a lot of difference. You just can't plan your bowling to a left, right combo all the time. Pat cummins made a fool out of everyone bowling to a set plan to all our right handers.

4 balls 2 runs. 5 wickets in hand. How on earth will arshdeep think he needs to go out and bat… but yes i agreee about him not diving.. arshdeep looks a good bowler but somehow his attitude has a lot to be desired.. just see rinku. He gives us calm vibes even when he is walking out to bat

Way too many mugs with the bat. Just Bumrah+ 1 of Mukesh/Arshdeep will be fine. Let the series finish, I believe Arshdeep can pick up his game.

2 bowlers. rest fill with allrounders. need batting till 9.

[nitinbwj]

This was India's highest run chase as well.

National shame. Some idiots dont deserve playing. Im looking at u kl. What a retarded player, big mess in ipl too, plays wayyy to slow.

And no two ways about his batting. He can hit all over the ground. Doesn't have a favorite area to hit. He can really intimidate the bowlers. Gaining a reputation slowly.

VVS Laxman .. hold my beer..

Nothing to be happy about this win. This a third rate Aussie bowling attack with just about 1.5 decent bowlers.

My take - 

1. Smith gifted the match to India.

2. India too had only 2 decent bowlers - 1 (surprise , surprise Moookesh ). 0.5 (arsh) 0.5 ( Axar)

3. Worst bowling by Prasidh -  Prasidh is not  T20 bowler.need to drop the experiment .

4. Bishnoi - Do not see any improvement in his bowling - very difficult to hold on to his place on good pitches . Bowling , catching  everything was utter crap. Losing hope as a T20 bowler for WC .

5. Surya - Every team will try to bowl only slow rising cutters. Needs to change his game to counter these kind of deliveries by tall pacers , else he will be contained .

6. Rinku - One guy who uses his batting smarts as a finisher . Impressed by his cool headness, good thinking to run a single when ball went to keeper, again trying to get 2 runs even though arsh got out .Impressed . T20 finisher is not just about hitting big, hitting in the gap , beating the field placements and  big hits to the right ball.

7. Need to revise my assessment of Mukesh , seem to have developed his T20 bowling skills a bit more . Glad to see that effort . Credit where due . T20 bowling is not just about pace & bounce .

8. The one impressive point about batting was the positive intent by youngsters .
