Scott Boland in the 2nd inning 15(74)

 

Our 3 most experienced batters

How he shamelessly blamed the newbies here is amazing. Then why is he and Kohli in the team for?

Wth is that a direct quote? If so, such a shameless player. He made Rahul move from the opening position that had served Rahul well and stank everything up. Loser.

It is a direct quote as far as I know

Yup. He actually said that in the post match media conference. Absolutely no shame or self awareness whatsoever. And this fatso will go from here as "captain" in the CT where he and that choker Kohli will deliver another masterclass.

Only chance of winning CT if we somehow make it to finals and SA are there in finals too, because they are massive grade A chokers

We won't get there as we'll have the same two experienced chokers in the side. At max we can carry them to knockouts but after that it's extremely tough to win when you've 9 players going up against 11.

we got to 2023 WC finals with the 2 players, and also to 2024 WT20. It's not impossible.

We got to WC 2023 final as we had Shami averaging 3+ wkts a game, Bumrah and pretty decent Kuldeep. Plus at the time Rohit still had something left in the tank. The current version of Rohit can't be compared to the one in that tourney.

 

Rohit's PP hitting and our stellar bowling allowed our batters to play without much pressure. But this CT will be different. There's no Shami and Rohit has fallen off the cliff. And we all know Kohli is the greatest downhill skier in the world who shows up when there's no pressure but when there's a hint of pressure he crumbles.

 

The only way we do something in CT is if we drop at least one of Rohit or Kohli and replace them by Jaiswal. Jaiswal is our best all-format batter and deserves to play ODIs. Ideally, we don't have either Rohit or Kohli in the team and we go with a young team similar to our T20 one. Then we'll be one of the favorites.

I think we will make it to KOs, but not finals. that's my expectation.

That would be par for the course. That's what we've done in the past and TBH we can pick an India A team and they would reach knockouts too. The real tourney starts at the knockout stage and as always our chokers will go missing at that stage.

Personal opinion- it’s all over

 

controversial opinion- I feel Sydney is Rohit Sharma territory. The bylanes around SCG buzz with stories of Rohit’s knocks on this ground in white ball. Would be perfect for final hurrah but I know too much to ask. Just putting it out there :)

I also want Sunil Gvaskar to come out of retirement score a 100 at Lords to fill that void in his resume. lol

What a sad lying piece of shyte. Everyone knows he's done but has screwed us over against NZ and in this series. He along with Kohli are the reason we won't be playing WTC final against a very beatable SA team.

Maybe that feeling will come in after he has lost us CT, the next WTC and the 2027 WC.

Can't believe this guy hasn't retired yet. Dude your team won a game and then you came back ruined all the vibes and the batting order and got embarrassed in 3 games.  Do you not have any common sense?

[vvvslaxman]

Imagine someone getting paid 15 lakhs for the work that Rohit did in the mCG test. 5 days of work of doing nothing. 18000$ for 5 days. If he has any shame he should distribut his earnings to Indian fans who attended the match
