England's tour of India - 2021

Shardul Thakur and his habit of picking up wickets. Absolutely amazing!

 

[WubbaLubbaDubDub]

Although Prasidh Krisna has been expensive, he has bowled some nice deliveries. 3 wickets on debut is not a small ask! Well done!

Piss poor from the middle order.

First Ishan Kishan then Sky and then Krunal Pandya all three have performed well on their debut.

England just need a half decent partnership to win this one.

All due to that sensational starr by Bairstow and Roy that despite losing clusters of wickets in the middle they are still in with more than a chance.

This is a public forum and I can give any opinion I want as a member. I would like to keep these discussion civil and instead of calling other people's post dumb please have a civil way to prove your point. He is out of form and it is a big test for him since now he has been given the sort of confidence other players die for from the management. I dont give a rats ass how long you have followed cricket or played cricket. When I respect your opinion, I expect either you do the same or ignore my posts. This Indian management is known for chopping and cropping players left and right. People blame KL for lack of confidence when it has to be exact opposite.

KL knows very well that nothing is going to happen to him. He is in the KOHLI gang and nobody is going to touch him. He knows he has the privilege's other players dont have. Before the AUSSIE series, he was selected as Keeper Batsman, he has today played as one. This I am sure would have been communicated to him, so I do not see why he is low on confidence that people talk about and is insecure.

317 is not a defendable score. We should have got atleast 30-40 more. Shikhi played a Shikhi knock. 112 runs in last 9 overs did give us a boost though.

In the words of Hon. Padma Shri V. P. Kohli,

”Kuch toh log kahenge, logon ka kaam hai kehna.
Chhodo bekar ki baaton mein kahi beet na jaaye rehna.”

(People will say things, that’s what people do.
dont give a damn, otherwise life will go wasted into this.)

Shreyas Iyer out of the ODI series with dislocated shoulder. He has to be the most unluckiest player. Was actually looking forward to seeing him making the number 4 position his. SKY or Pant to come in?

SKY undoubtedly. Not just because of his T20I performances. He has been killing it in Vijay Hazare. This guy is in his purple patch and India should not waste that opportunity .

 

[WubbaLubbaDubDub]

I did not follow the Vijay Hazare trophy except know that Shaw headlined the entire tournament. If sense prevailed, a like for like replacement should be made in SKY. Pant has had a purple patch as well but I would like him to dominate Tests and T20's and not the boring ODI's.

Good bye Jhonny. Moeen Ali can bat at no 3. He is a genuine opener with sound technique. Stokes needs to bat at no 4. Morgan is a genuine finisher. This Engaland team need a line up editor.

moeen ali has averaged 16 with the bat and 95 with the ball in odi cricket in the last 2 years
he was still given the vice captaincy before the ireland series

 

[WubbaLubbaDubDub]

Also how good has Bhuvi been in the last two matches. Looks like he has finally got his rhythm back. He looked out of sort in the first two T20's but has shown his vintage bowling. Happy for him

 

[Sherlock Holmes]

'If' England hold their nerves and take this game deep. They 'can' win this.

This was going to be my post 15 mins back. Nevermind.

Worked like a Charm!

Looks like Iyer might be out of IPL as well. Huge blow for him as T20 preps begin.

 

[Ed Smith]

Bottled it

Retrospectively, due to the emergence of SKY and Kishan, India will be under no pressure. We have got his role covered. With Pant Hardik and Jadeja in the fray, the lower order is set as well.
