Ive looked at my phone three times today. All three times im seeing only 1 batsman.

If you promise not to vote for me, going forward in culture maf, ill promise to stop looking at the scores while the game is in play. Do it for your country.

This Indian team needs some coaching on batting against spin now..
Turning wickets are actually dangerous for us more than the opposition.. ?‍♂
most batsmen who played ranji in the mid to late 00s are **** against spin but good off the backfoot

throughout the 00s we had completely dead tracks that didn't help spinners both in local games and international games

plus our bowlers' average speed went up and such bowlers probably tried more short balls because that is what fast bowlers do

our next batch of youngsters like priyam garg, jaiswal etc should have better techniques while playing spin

The slow-mo there showed just how close Rahane was to missing that ball he ended up middling (but mistiming slightly). He wasn't really near the pitch either. Not hard to see why he struggles a bit at home when you watch that footage.

I'm (only half-seriously, but I'm getting there) thinking India could have a rotating spot for Rohit in Asia and Rahane and SENA. Maybe they can both play in the West Indies.

If England brings all of Stone, Archer and Wood out here next summer and play two of them with Broad I think they’ll do pretty well.

Maybe even win a test.

Pretty sure Stone will be dropped.

They could do that with Rohit, but why not stick with the tried and tested plan?

Let him open in England for three tests, fail and then throw in someone and ask them to figure out Jimmy instantly.

Don't listen to the narrative of the mainstream media. Rahane averages 50+ at home since 2019. Look into it.

Also re.Stone he is still very much a novice at this level obvs, but there's no doubt he would have played more tests if he was injury-free. This is a bold and exciting move from England
