Will be waiting for @Na Maloom Afraad, @ABDULLAH & @Naman Thakur . Only if they'd post comments within 24 hours from their match posted, shall they be applicable for full points. Otherwise it'll be 0.5 instead of 0.8 and 0.3 instead of 0.5

A good start is what a team craves for , nicely dealt by the openers Bairstow & Dhawan . A worthy 136 runs partnership between Iyer & Colin . Shreyas came back strongly after being dropped in the previous match . And Colin is doing his job superbly ....

TBH the part where we lost the plot was scoring just 47 runs in the last 10 overs . Slog hitting became dry towards that juncture . Their bowlers bowled well , credits to them ....

Nothing much wrong done by the bowlers . de Kock did what he does . The opposition batsmen made worth effective chunks of partnerships . Kevin then broke the bowling at the latter part with his 32 ball 40 ....

Rampaul bowled well defending 7 runs , after being hit with a first ball 4 . A match which could've won but nevermind , we will take that TIE !

More than four sentences, and yes editing before 24 hrs from match is passed is notable.

 

[ABDULLAH]

That was a nail biting contest. It is worrisome that despite having seven batsman we failed to chase down that total. However on a brighter side Qdk's sublime form continues. Hoping that Hildreth, Trego and Denly prove their mettle in the upcoming games. Nothing much to say about our bowlers, still we need a revamp in our bowling unit.

 

[Na Maloom Afraad]

I apologise for not being completely active here, been going through some stuff IRL. If I'm being honest, I think you're being kinda generous with those point allocations for my comments

not complaining tho

 

[Na Maloom Afraad]

On to the match, this was a much better batting display but our bowlers let us down this time. While I can't expect Labuschagne or Smith to perform in every match, I do expect some kind of significant contribution from Tom Banton, which he hasn't delivered upon yet. Mills inclusion was done solely to give Mark Wood some rest, and he didn't disappoint but he also wasn't as good as he could've been. Broad and Amir going wicketless is quite worrisome. Maybe it was a bad decision to play Harmer and Dawson on a hard track.
