If CI said it, then it has to be true.

Is this the thread where we will discuss all the Indian threats to abandon the tour because someone gave one of them out and DRS showed it as umpire's call?

It's Indian national Pritheiraj Janardhan Kurapothula, age 27. What's he got to do with Indian team?

 

[Burgey]

Just you wait and see. It'll cause massive problems within the team.

Reliably informed the story will drop tomorrow

 

[Line and Length]

All series between Test teams have peaks and troughs according to the current form of teams. The BGT held a lot of interest but may be on the wane. We've seen W.I. v Australia held in high regard, but this has slipped in recent decades.
For sheer history and sustained interest, regardless of form, nothing beats the Ashes.

India is not going away in cricket unlike the Windies. So you can safely rule out BGT falling away in the coming decades.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

In coming decades, it will not even be called BGT series.

Don’t think the Ashes were very competitive between 1989-2005, and for that matter an Ashes in Australia is a foregone conclusions, whereas BGT in both countries is very competitive

The Ashes is the longest-running abandonment complex in cricket though. Big-time daddy issues.

Hardik will no doubt rise to the occasion.
