SKY appreciation thread

Too much hate for the guy 

 

Yes he may be struggling a bit but he did what was most important that is win the world cup.

 

It's better to have a winning but less performing captain than a performing loser

 

Let's support the leader who won us a world cup on first attempt against all odds

 

Also he has built this 20-20 team and it's ultra aggressive approach 

 

Under loli and Rohit we were very boring and out of touch now we are world beaters

 

We love you sky

He is a lucky guy.  As cricinfo calls it Accidental perfection

Kishan wasn't even in India's World Cup plans until their last series before the tournament; he may not have found a place in the XI had two events outside his control - Tilak missing that series with injury and Samson undergoing a serious form slump - not coincided with his being in the form of his life.

 

 

Samson had gone from guaranteed opener-keeper to middle-order keeper battling with Jitesh Sharma for a starting role to opener-keeper to out of the starting XI... to back in it.

 

Abhishek had gone from No. 1 T20I batter in the world to going through the entire group stage of this World Cup without scoring a run.

 

All those things had needed to happen for this top three to happen. And once it happened, magic happened, culminating in one of the greatest top-order displays ever seen in a T20 game, in the biggest T20 game of them all.
