    India will not travel to Pakistan to play the Champions Trophy

    Outdated competition, almost irrelevant. India should just skip. But because the financial viability of this competition rests on India playing, they will ensure India plays at any cost, which will 100% be at neutral venues like Abu Dhabi and Dubai. I highly doubt the final would have to be...

    How much does captaincy impact results?

    Rohit's captaincy was poor. He allowed new batsmen to settle, reminded me of Dhoni's captaincy days.

    Would this be the greatest test series win of all time if NZ win?

    The fact that India brought Sundar into the XI right after the first game - showed that they didn't have the same confidence in Ashwin anymore, as they shored up the side with another off-spinner (for his bowling as well as batting). It was unthinkable to play another off-spinner in presence of...

    Would this be the greatest test series win of all time if NZ win?

    I don't expect anything more than a farewell match/series at home.

    Australia A vs India A games

    Australia should prepare pitches like this one for India. It'll be game over for Rohit and Gambhir.

    Would this be the greatest test series win of all time if NZ win?

    Bumrah was ok in the 1st test, while the 2nd Test had nothing for seamers. Ashwin was mostly crap though. It might be end of the road for him & might not get another home series.

    Australia A vs India A games

    Easwaran, Rahul and Nitish Reddy are likely to feature in the Perth Test. Sai Sudharsan could be added to the squad. Jurel, Krishna could come into the XI at some point in the series. Mukesh, Khaleel are the travelling reserves who could come in if someone gets injured. So upto 7-8 players...

    *Official* New Zealand tour of India 2024

    You think he would be a worse bowler than a Siraj on a Mumbai spin minefield? Aussies had done a full study on him because of his earlier exploits vs Eng 2021. Coming back to this series, Sundar was highly effective against LHB because he was bowling from wide of the crease creating an angle...

    Australia A vs India A games

    Because Rahul and Jurel didn't play vs NZ so they were free and fresh to go and get match practice in Aus. On the other hand, Sarfraz just played vs NZ. Plus he looked clueless on non-flat tracks against both pace and spin. I doubt he will feature in the initial Tests in Australia so there's no...

    Road to India in Australia 2024-25

    Rohit will be missing the 1st Test and is not 100% for 2nd Test either. Let's hope he stays away. Time to groom a new opener and a new captain.

    Road to India in Australia 2024-25

    Shami is done. He's picked up a new injury. He won't make BGT late stages either. I doubt if we'll ever get the old Shami back given his age now and being out of cricket for more than a year.

    *Official* New Zealand tour of India 2024

    34 vs Ban on rank 4th inns pitch. Ind chased 145/7 84 vs Aus 1st Test 74 vs Aus 2nd Test rank turner. Ind was 139/7. 12* & 15* Aus 3rd Test, on 100 all out minefield 79 vs Aus 4th Test Guy is a beast on these kind of **** pitches. It shows that Gambhir is a loud mouth with no brains. And his...

    *Official* New Zealand tour of India 2024

    Makes you wonder how thick headed indian cricketers / team management are if they didn't realise that Axar is invaluable on these tracks. He is as good a batter on a rank turner as any. Look at his runs in the last 2 years on predominantly difficult spinning pitches.

    Lengthens that batting too and Axar provides cover for Jadeja. And if there are two RHB, both would have taken the ball away, no escape for batters.

    Kohli Test Average

    nah, he'll get at least 250 runs in 10 innings. He's been crap against spin on tricky wickets, but not as bad against fast bowling.

    *Official* New Zealand tour of India 2024

    to hedge incase there's reverse or significant variable bounce for seamers. but yeah I would have played Axar in place of Siraj in the last test at least.

    *Official* New Zealand tour of India 2024

    I can say with some confidence because India is carrying a couple of passengers in the batting order coupled with no Shami and Siraj being out of form. And we saw how bad they looked in Bengaluru against seam and bounce. It doesn't bode well at all for Australian tracks. They'd need a mini miracle.
