New Zealand tour of Srilanka, 2 tests, discussion, 18th September - 30th September

Legendary knock by Kane, as good as VVS' 281 

 

ICC cricketer of the 21st century trophy loading after this.

Knowing BCCI scheduling logic, I am sure 2 of the tests against NZ will get washed out and we will have to come up with a miracle in BGT to secure WTC F spot.

Tbh in 2017 we also toured SL in same time period.

BCCI won't vacate its prime Test season Sep OCT Nov Dec to SL.

Not surprising..  

Literally 9 years gap between 2017 and 2026..

We have toured SA Eng Australia thrice in the same period.

Commando Mendis 182

 

India should aim to beat NZ 3-0 to keep WTC final safe before the B-G series 

[Frustrated]

Weather forecast doesn't look too promising today.   Indian fans should be happy if it's a draw.

NZ whitewashed.
