yes was quite bizzare. Won't question his character/intentions like people do here though. Perhaps some instruction for GG/Fatso

 

He is a perfect batsman to frustrate hell out of an AUssie  attack like this. Imagine him doing this at no.5 batting position. Jaiswal looked rattled with all the chirping and took it personally. This guy was just chilling like nothing was around him. Calm and composed. It will be off putting for the opposition when you see a batsman living in his own world

They are phenomenal at farming the strike when approaching their own century

Fatty/GG must have told him to play for his own records

he could do it at no. 3 too. block, block, block - more balls to block at no. 3

If we as  novice armchair people can think of these things..trust me our players know...many times it's a decision or something players are comfortable..many times letting the two in the middle decide what to do ...lastly our bowlers might be practicing to bat better but poor results so far ..we don't know how they are dealing with this .defeats make everything look awful...a defeat doesn't make us extremely poor..a win doens t make us super awesome...issues are clear..out of form seniors and lack of pace bowling support for bumrah

Sundar is definitely at good leaving the ball and knows where off stump is . Better play him at 4.

indian farming of strike by batsman one end and the tail at the other has been atrocious in both innings. nitish running two to give bumrah a whole over when he's needs one for the ton. i think siraj then tried very hard to take a single so he could face a whole over. in the second innings sundar showed no intent to protect deep or bumrah or siraj. the man was comatose! i can only conclude there's some messed up superiority/inerfiority complex sh%t going on. f%ck respecting your elders. i was prepared to give senior reddy a pass when he touched gavaskar's feet. but not after that batting display.

ABSOLUTE CINEMA!

No. 3 is too high for him. That's a specialist batting position.

Sundar has always been a specialist batsman.  He is just a shade better than a part time bowler.
