Stuge Posted January 29, 2017 Posted January 29, 2017 To an extent yes DRS is must..whatever format we play Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using Tapatalk

Getting the true context of a comment is difficult just through text Yeah I do believe that was the key moment. Not because it was Root because he looked bloody awful in this game. England may not have knocked off the runs still, we'll never know but I do believe it set the tone for the whole over. The pressure swung massively onto England. T20 can swing in one moment as we know, and if that wasn't a key match deciding moment I don't know what is. GoldenSun 1

Keeping better, younger players out of the side (Bairstow, hell even Duckett in the white ball formats, Billings when Hales returns) He isn't too old tbf. Normally batsmen peak around 25-32 so he's still got at least a couple more seasons. He's also one of England's better players of spin. Bairstow's List A record isn't really stellar (though I sense a Yorkshire bias here).
Texan Posted January 29, 2017 Posted January 29, 2017 We should have 1 DRS review per side per innings even in T20. In an important match in a World T20, it could make a big difference. In context of this match, I doubt if the Root decision would have had any impact. Root was struggling to get bat on ball in the last few overs and was lucky that two of his slogs landed in no mans land. He would have struggled to get anything away in that final over.

He's kept us (Yorkshire)in a lot of games in all formats recently to be fair and I feel as though his list A record is much improved. Having said that the last time I saw him play was the One Day Cup semi final last season. He came in with Yorkshire chasing 250, having been reduced to 70-2. Headingley was still optimistic that he'd save us and lead us to the final, as he had in nearly every game he'd played for us for the past two seasons. He lasted a few overs then promptly played a dreadful shot straight to mid wicket. As it was his first game after playing Test cricket for most of the year, naturally it was England's fault of course!
King Tendulkar Posted January 29, 2017 Posted January 29, 2017 Main issue with bairstow is that he is a very poor keeper for international cricket batting is asser and suprised does not play in limited overs formats as pure bat
YCCC Posted January 29, 2017 Posted January 29, 2017 Personally think Buttler isn't a great keeper either. GoldenSun 1
G_B_ Posted January 29, 2017 Posted January 29, 2017 I thought Bairstow did well with the gloves in the tests....
Malcolm Merlyn Posted January 29, 2017 Posted January 29, 2017 There isnt a great keeper around in the world at this moment.
Brainfade Posted January 29, 2017 Posted January 29, 2017 Equation 01: 8 from 6 balls. Equation 02: 8 from 5 balls. For a highly accomplished T20 side, it shouldn't matter no, Mr. Owen M? TheWall and express bowling 2

kosingh Posted January 29, 2017 Posted January 29, 2017 Last over they got bat on ball only one ball out of the six. Really should look at that, Morgan. Sriram kappagantula 1
Sandeep99 Posted January 30, 2017 Posted January 30, 2017 There are two sides to it. If India was at the receiving end, we'd have seen a meltdown o this forum. However, it was Root's wicket who was struggling for timing after facing 40 balls! Wouldn't have made any difference in all honesty.
Unleashed Posted January 30, 2017 Posted January 30, 2017 Absolutely entitled to whine about it tbf. That Kohli not out was a laughable decision, probably the ideal LBW and was still given not out. I'm all for England-bashing but Kohli would've done the same if he was in Morgan's position. They did bottle the match though. 32 off 4 overs is very, very easy. They tried to hit too many sweeps and reverse sweeps rather than doing it easily and looking for two's which were possible on this big ground. GoldenSun 1
rkt.india Posted January 30, 2017 Posted January 30, 2017 would have still lost, the way Root was batting and Bumrah was bowling. He was trying to get out every ball.
