    This is the second win by RCB which they should have won by 20 runs more than they did. Let's see how much it comes back to bite them. Good to see Gambhir get owned.

    RCB doing RCB things. Great opportunity to close the NRR and they're doing their best to make this close against 9 and 10.

    The BCCI is a pathetic joke. What happened with the Oz test match in Dharamshala being shifted still numbs my brains. The WC fixtures are still not out and fans who will be travelling from abroad cannot plan their itineraries. High-headedness to another level. I guess, the ruling party of our...

    The thing is, there is an over obsession with batting in our country. The sort of side CSK has, I just don't see the point of playing Rayudu. Their bowling lacks teeth and they need one more option there. I repeat, it's criminal to not have Rahane bat. On a side note, these bowling machine...

    Jadeja's batting is not where it was pre injury. And if you're not going to make Rahane bat in this form, I don't think you're serious about winning a cricket match. Dube might be doing well but his peaks of this year are not a patch on Jinks.

    Time to remove bowlers and just put bowling machines.

    I love Zak but I think India will be able to unearth a few of the same calibre. There will never be another Wasim Akram or Shane Warne till cricket ceases to exist.

    Rana's innings today reminds me a lot of Nasser Hussain's at the famous NatWest Lord's final. And only a clown like Shastri can call it an outstanding knock!

    One other thing I feel has been vastly ignored from an Indian POV is the whole raft of injuries and returns that have not been fruitful in the past couple of years. KL had a sports hernia and he has not been himself after. I also hear from close quarters that he has a very early stage tennis...

    They were certainly not tacky wickets.

    Yeah. This post sums it up. This is basically being in your own world like some of us Indians were in the 2000's where we were just looking for reasons why India were not hammering the Aussies. People actually don't get how good England are in the white ball format and head to head comparisons...

    He has played two back to back good knocks. It is fashionable on this forum and Pakistani social media to just keep blabbering about strike rates. It was even more embarrassing to hear KP imploring KL to get out on commentary. It just shows everyone's general perception of this format now where...

    I think batting position and the left handedness is similar. However, Yuvraj's big match/tournament temperament is rare so I will wait to see it to believe it. On a batsmanship level I think Tilak has a more closed base compared to the open one of Yuvraj. He should be a better off side player...

    I will not understand why CSK don't play one of Raidu/Dube and play the extra bowler. Their bowling is quite one dimensional and pedestrian.

    Our biggest weakness pertaining to white ball cricket which is developing cricketers with multiple skillsets remains even after 15 IPL editions. Tewatia and SRK are finishing games but not bowling. Shardul looks like open season even in IPL games with the ball. Really not much beyond Hardik &...

    LSG is just obsessed with Krunal. On this pitch to be going at 10's is just terrible and the worse obsession is him batting at 4. Bishnoi has not bowled a ball yet!!!

    Don't know what the whole PSL vs IPL thing is about. I personally feel the IPL is a lazy product. We have the viewership so anything flies but the pace of the game is a sham.

    Been seeing cricket matches at the gardens for 30 years. Never in its history has the wicket been so lopsided and flat. It used to be second to the 'G' in terms of ground dimensions but now it's easier to hit consecutive sixes than taking cover for the queen in a carrom game.

    As a Calcutta boy it hurts to see what the Gardens have been reduced to!
