randomGuy Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 I don't think we deserved to be in finals thanks to just one man(kohli). Rahane for ex., 40 off 35, on a pitch of 200 runs. He is simply not a T20 player. There's regionalism from some guys like Gavasker (from Mumbai) as well , always cheerleading for Mumbai players like Rahane, projecting them as bigger players than they are Rasgulla, Ankit_sharma03, tweaker and 1 other 4
kosingh Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 Regionalism or not, Gavaskar is completely out of touch with the T20 game. diehardpacer, adi B and beetle 3

Mariyam Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 Just now, radhika said: He only cares for centuries,personal milestones. What personal milestones can he achieve as a commentator?
Number Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 How Gavaskar thinks of Mumbai players is the last thing to worry for us though.
Captain Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 Even Manju said that Rahane did his job and now it's the job of others to launch at the end. Mumbai lobby is pathetic to say the least. diehardpacer 1
chewy Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 +1, remember at one point saying this is pukka mumbai, in mumbai, with two mumbai boys playing (Rohit and Rahane playing), and singing praises for Rahane's singles. he probably didn't mean it, but came across poor. but having said that a first choice Mumbai XI would can probably beat India. randomGuy 1

But there are one hundred better T20 batsmen than Rahane right now in the domestic circuit.

There used to be a time when Mumbai (Bombay then) XI was India XI. Those days are long gone. Apart from Rohit Sharma, who else is form Mumbai?
kosingh Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 Watching the Tendulkars kiss some Ambani butt can get awkward. diehardpacer 1
adi B Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 Is this news now . Honestly though ,gavaskar has gone senile nowadays and his commentary has been stale,same old.he's so out of touch with the t20 game lol and not to forget his obsession with milestones I.e 50s and 100s chewy 1
YCCC Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 Nowt wrong with a bit of regional pride. Mumbai as record Ranji champions are the Indian Yorkshire and if you come from the home of cricket in your country why not be proud? Just ask our Geoff! Laaloo 1

You wouldn't find many Yorkshire fans five hours north of Yorkshire as you'd be somewhere in Scotland! Congrats on regaining the Ranji trophy recently anyway and best of luck to the Indians franchise in IPL. beetle 1

Mumbai has a lobby, a powerful one.
