    The Best Wicket keeper?

    And add to that you have to read what your mate bowling from the hand for it to become easy. Now switch to bowlers like Jadeja, Dharmasena, Rajesh Chauhan or Phil Tuffnell. These guys did know when they delivered the arm ball. But there were times when they delivered their stock ball, it went...

    The Best Wicket keeper?

    Dujon was never tested against quality spin. We saw what happens to great keepers to pacemen introduced to spinners. Mark Boucher was beast keeping to pace. He was a shipwreck in the Super test when he kept to Murali. Greatest keepers need to keep ATG to extremely good spinners to enter the...

    The Best Wicket keeper?

    The issue was that Sri Lankan reserve keeper was better than him.

    Garry Sobers vs Imran Khan

    Imran and Sobers are easily better cricketers than Bradman.

    Garry Sobers vs Imran Khan

    Well there were times GSS was brilliant with ball especially early in his career. And in last decade of his career Imran averaged 50 with the bat. That is bloody effective consistency.

    The Best Wicket keeper?

    Tillekaratne and Parore played in similar era. And Hashan looked umpteen times better than Parore. Now this was a player who gave up gloves to improve batting. Since 1990, PJ, Healy, Latif and Russell are the best I have seen.

    *Official* New Zealand tour of India 2024

    I was really worried about Santner finding his radar on the Galle pitch. Luckily for us he didn't. Once he did he was deadly.

    *Official* New Zealand tour of India 2024

    You bet they didn't. That is the issue with India. They are bloody arrogant. They don't consider a boring batsman should be a part of their line up. For us, it used to be Tillekaratne, Samaraweera and now Mathews. We at least consider such a batsman is needed.

    *Official* New Zealand tour of India 2024

    Galle is a pathetic batting track. It provides with exiting matches becauseof abrasive surface allowing spin and reverse swing, but most SENA sides are done by the heat and humidity in Galle.

    Biggest test series upset of all time

    This may well be possible. Australia may just play in to hands of India by giving fast bouncy or flat tracks. If Aussies want to win, they should play on slow tracks, let their pacers squeeze the life out of scoring and let Lyon prosper. Inability of Indian batsmen to whether being bogged down...

    *Official* New Zealand tour of India 2024

    Now just imagine this same NZ team was steam rolled by us on similar wickets. What was the difference? Batsmen were patient. Blocked the ball plenty of time, and let the heat take toll on the visitors. Just like English and Kiwis know when the ball swings and when not SC sides also should know...
