Isse yaad aaya. Balaji giving a 6 to Brett Lee in a match we should have won in the vb series. 
 

But the shot to me which still haunts is Virender Sehwag trying to hit a 6 on 195 at Melbourne. We collapsed after that and lost the test..also not to forget Parthivs drop of Waugh in Sydney. That series we should have won..

That is a good call. Bowlers were at his mercy. Not sure what he was thainking. But that was sehwag.

Ya i wont blame him for that he had back ache…. Rohit threw his wkt in final due to his bad fitness , thanks to Axar and Iyer saving us there otherwise that would have been a disaster and thats what we would have called bad inning. Sachin pain was unbearable so he just kept hitting but thanks to our tailenders who couldn't score remaining 16 runs and surrendered like meek.

 

It happened one more time. INdia was chasing 350 or something i think. Tendulkar was 175 not out. INdia needed 19 runs in 3 overs. ONce he got out. We collapsed.

Yes who can forget that …. That was another impact inning by Fraudeja down the order..

How about dropped catches that cost us the game? The most infamous one I remember is Graham Gooch getting dropped by Kiran More and going on to score a triple hundred. Our maharathis keep shelling catches left and right, there must be quite a few glaring examples!

Shikar Dhawan dropping Sam curran. That was really bad. He made 78 in the end. From losing position they went into winning position.  Then Vihari dorpping bairstow when England was chasing 377

Oh man I can never forget that. Jadeja has been a dud in LOI cricket for 15 years.

WC23, yes it was below par total but bowling led by spinners and fast bowlers did not even put up a fight.

 

NZ showed you can still put up fight even after 100 plus opening partnership while defending low score.

None can top kohli's drop of mccullum .. resulting in the draw and mccullum scoring 300 ..

 

Yeah remember that. McCullum scored 300 runs more and a certain win for us ended up in a Draw :((

In the last 5 years he has dropped over 40 catches. Not sure how much he has cost the team. Even in world T20 against South Africa he dropped Markrak's crucial catch. He fielded well in the CT. I will give him that.  But his catching is horrendous throughout his career.

Yup, quite an inconsistent catcher. Drops sitters and then suddenly catches a blinder. But he should never stand in slips. Have seen him drop so many there. Gill, Iyer and other youngsters should stand in slips.

Worst drop was Jaiswal dropping 3 in melbourne. We would have been chasing 210-220 in 4th innings. 
 

Also Axar dropping Ollie Pope and we losing an unlosable test after that huge lead. 
 

KL rahul dropping a sitter in bangladesh odi 9th wicket down and we lost the odi and series. 
 

Arshdeep dolly drop in asia cup against pakistan and we lost the match. 
 

Pujara dropping bavuma second test in slips in 2021 saf tour and we lost the test and then series.
