    And I don't know why Indian fans are being all giddy and offering burnol and stuff to Pakistani fans in retaliation. I mean they are topping the group and are into the semis. We are almost on the verge of a first round exit here. You have got to be kidding me

    2021 ICC Men's T20 World Cup - India (UAE/Oman)

    Not sure if you have heard of it, but there is this thing called having an off day in cricket and in life. It can happen to the best of the teams at the worst of times due to any sort of reason from pressure to inexperience to complacency to inexplicable causes. Questioning the intent to win...

    2021 ICC Men's T20 World Cup - India (UAE/Oman)

    It is not pessimism. It is a calculated guess based on the morale of the team and the strength of the opposition. No one is saying it is a cake walk - but there are plenty of IFs and BUTs which could very well turn out to be true because of the situation we are in. You just seem to be...

    2021 ICC Men's T20 World Cup - India (UAE/Oman)

    Because AFG is a really good team and can very easily win, and it wont even be an upset. They are nothing like Namibia who are truly minnows and do not have any players with international level experience. AFG might not be favourites or with a 50/50 chance for a win, but its too far off...

    You aren't. Twitterverse is full of such posts although their language is a lot more colorful and their reason for wishing the team to lose isn't as noble either. I think we are going to lose this game though. There are two possible scenarios that Kohli is going to have play out...

    2021 ICC Men's T20 World Cup - India (UAE/Oman)

    All solid points !! And I would like to point out one more obvious issue and place a lot of blame squarely of Ganguly and Shah Jr's shoulders - the IPL Part 2 being squeezed in did our team no favours. It has directly impacted our performance in the World Cup. This 1 month could have been used...

    2021 ICC Men's T20 World Cup - India (UAE/Oman)

    Wow, just wow This is way deeper than VK being a shit captain and mishandling from management. IPL seems to be backfiring here - our players seemed lethargic and down and out in this game as well. And teams seem to have a proper plan for their IPL teammates playing in the Indian team. That...

    Oh god - I am just going to comment on this one because the others have responded to the rest of the post quite well. Temba publicly supported de Kock after the incident and called him "one of the boys". It only made sense that de Kock returned the genuine gesture with a genuine call out to...

    Looks like there is a court case pending in Supreme Court LOL, and its on hold until next hearing Knowing our Supreme Leader's control over our judiciary, and I think baby Shah and Dada will be able to complete 2-3 terms before the verdict is declared.

    2021 ICC Men's T20 World Cup - India (UAE/Oman)

    Sorry but this is the lamest thing one can say when BLM is discussed. BLM is about spreading awareness about the discrimination faced by a section of people because of their skin colour in our modern current world. Its not undermining the value of other lives. Its like going to a Breast...

    2021 ICC Men's T20 World Cup - India (UAE/Oman)

    Talking of gestures, looks like the Indian team also took the knee to support BLM. Commendable And then Shami was trolled viciously after the loss and accused of playing for the other team because of his religion - I hope BCCI will have the guts to ask the players to take a stand for their own...

    What an EPIC way to lose really You literally cannot blame anything in particular, because everything was a disaster - the batting, the bowling, the team selection, the captaincy And this will be an interesting experience for us: we usually steamroll through the group phase and come up a...

    Hardik looks complete out of sorts as a batter, forget about him not bowling. Lord Shardul would be a better bet than him on current form ASHWIN over Chahar definitely. He is looking in cracking form with the ball, and These wickets definitely suit his style Surprised Kohli dint bat...

    2021 ICC Men's T20 World Cup - India (UAE/Oman)

    What an incredible start from the Scots !! Hoping for more upsets (Except against India and SA) And from the little I have seen so far - the two matches and a couple of warm ups, it looks like there is some spice and movement on offer in the first 5-6 overs of each innings with things easing...

    Yess -- RCB return things to normal. Play Bold, Never for Gold I think CSK will canter home with the trophy this time as well. They are just in that zone and that knock by MSD has taken things to the next level. Just do not see them losing the finals
