Poor bowling by India, Pant played a good inns together with Virat, 336 was a strong total on this pitch but a weak bowling line up been exposed!

Tbh I thought 336 exposed our weak bowling

At least Thakur is back to earth.

Another masterclass in captaincy today.

Tbh I thought 336 was 30-40 runs below par.

ODIs still relevant or not this year?

The Captain said they are less relevant before COVID happened when we lost to NZ last year and said their sole focus is only on T20s & WTC.

Even back in the days the conversation with the popularity of T20 cricket many opinionated ODI will suffer the most and may indeed someday die.

Just feel sad we lost. Opinion or judgements are not required.

Even if you give, "people will talk, it's their job to talk"

If 336 was more than enough total for a batting line-up of that of England then this is year 2015.

On flat batting pitches like these even 350 is a little less.

You are talking about a completely different topic.

The point I was making that in context to the World T20 had covid not happened a WT20 was scheduled in Australia last November & teams were preparing for the WT20 tournament and Kohli after the ODI series loss in NZ said about the relevancy factor.

Coming to your point I think ODI may die but not in the near future atleast. The World Cup every 4 year is still considered as the pinnacle of cricket.

Maybe the next generation of cricketers might completely stop playing the 50 over at all and can opt to play t20 leagues across the globe.

Youre basically saying the same thing two ways, if that makes sense, whatever floats your both.

ODI will remain the pinnacle of cricket once the Indians are interested and theyre up in the top 4, they take a nose dive and ODI gonna be hailed as the worse format.

Might not be the worst thing in the world. I would love India to do bad at ODI's and if that kills ODI's, I am all for it. Look how cricket was interesting before T20 came along. Now with change in times, we need to preserve cricket. T20 and Test matches are the format to go for. Look at todays match. Both teams were playing like its T20. If we will see score of close to 400's why elongate? Just play T20's and let ODI's die already.

I feel ODI's if has to be played, should only be played for World Cups and Champions Trophy. Watching bowlers getting smashed for 100 overs is no fun and with T20, things wont change.
