England's tour of India - 2021

[RichieBGM]

Not a good start by the hosts. Kohli will not like his execution. Tried to impose himself too early. He seemed shocked by the turn Ali imparted on the ball.

 

[RichieBGM]

it is a fact that as a batsman he is quite unique in the entire world of Cricket

Rohit is not unique.. Stokes is the same for one. Tho the Indian has a far superior Test and FC average. Wasn't Seywag also in the Rohit mould. Smacked 100s at almost a run a ball.

I thought it was being played behind closed doors again when Kohli was bowled.

Rohit is more versatile and can play shot all around the playing area. He has about 2-3 different shots for a particular delivery. For Sehwag, yes he was more destructive than Rohit and he really put pressure on the opposition with his aggression but he was more into the Warner mould. Stokes is definitely known for pulling out some unbelievable miracles but Rohit is just different and a batsman really hard to get out from bowler's skill. Most of Rohit's dismissal are due to his uncontrolled aggression and his questionable shot selection in pressure situations.

Well I did not write the English team off did I?
I am sorry if I did.

Need something here, looks very comfortable.

Rohit reaching a milestone. In ODIs I would expect him to score big. In Tests, 100 bucks says he will throw it away now - though scoring a century is commendable nonetheless.

Yes please Jinx him.

Edit - Reverse Jinx.

Root should have a bowl himself

Wish India had listened to all the experts in here who wanted Rohit dropped

Did you see them show the stat earlier of him averaging 85 at home, 27 away.

And they have the brass neck so Jimmy’s only good in England.
