* China razes mosques, calls islam a mental illness-puts it's Muslims in reeducation camps, Syrians/Iraqis get bombed back to stone age by the West, India cuts Islamic Pakistan in half , Israel keeps on bitch slapping the Middle Eastern nations and makes the entire Jihadi qaum squeal like panicky rats for months, Myanmar treats Rohingyas worse than stray dogs, US/UK keep on mauling the Yemenis, Afghans living in 700 AD, Paxtan barely surviving on IMF bheek, Indian Muslims living in the worst economic conditions among all the Indian sub-groups.*

 

 

Allah : This is awkward...I'll pretend I didn't see all of that 

 

 

*India and England playing a random stick and ball game in white clothing for five days*

 

Allah : Ahh yes...this is the real **** I should be planning about.

Ok.  India lost the 1st test.  Because Allah was a better planner than BCCI/India.  Finally BCCI/India thrashed the hell out of the poms 4-1.   So,  it's now a proven fact that BCCI/India is the best of planners.    Hopefully, the matter is settled now.   No further confusion on this one.

Based on the evidence and despite his wicket hauls, Bashir has been the mascot for India. His mere presence brought about a string of victories for India. Atithi Mascot Bhava !!

Only 2 guys overrate him here. He is a mediocre trash. He will get found out soon. Already has

I meant Eng press: look at Guardian, times, etc. all of them think they have discovered a bowler with the turn of murali, control of nadkarni, speed of kumble, and flight of laker.

We always make a debutanr look good then we figure him out and obliterate them

 

 

Only truly class players will stand apart.

How much did Murali avg in India and how did Warne avg in India.This guy is touring India for the first time , he might not have done anything great but he had a reasonable debut series. How he improves remains to be seen.

jason kreyza bowled better than bashir, better than warne and murali too, when he toured. so did Ajaz Patel. Ind batters tend to love no-name spinners and making them look greater. Shaun Udal, Arshad Khan, etc the list goes on

Point is he is mediocre and garbage. Got lot of unwanted hype due to our batters gifting him wickets, but in totality he is a trash and will go into oblivion like the names above.

He still is one of their best spinners.That is the most important point.from English point of view he did well in his debut series.

 

Ali was not the greatest spinner but it worked for him and England.

I don't think he is bad as such, but clearly benefited from an unsettled lineup + timidity at first + novelty factor.

Didn't work for him at all in India.

Yes, he was still the best they had, so they kept playing him.

 

Not every player selected for team will become great in all conditions.

 

Sehwag avg in SA and England were below 30 and in NZ was below 20.
 

Has Ashwin worked out in all conditions.

Yes , he did benefit from Indian batsman who have gifted him some wickets but to his credit  he kept plugging away.
