*Official* Bangladesh v India 2022/23

[OverratedSanity]

Lmao @that graphic showing harbhajan Singh 2010 with the 5th most sixes of any Indian player in a calendar year. Athar seemed surprised, maybe some nz posters can explain to him how that happened.

It's kinda incredible how good Pant is in tests, we would have lost/been in a far worse position in soo many tests the past few years without him.

India batting = Pant + Iyer+ Jadeja
Remaining are for fielding and giving interviews

You forgot nostrils and his sixers.

I swear if pant gets out in the 90s again...

True, but Iyer and Jadeja have their limitations with conditions. ****ing Pant has done it everywhere and he is the first guy you would think would be a T20 hack if you were to think of him ~2017ish, it's incredible.

Yep. Incredible. Guy's going to leave Slater in the dust.

Pant has good technique behind all the funkiness

Iyer is a walking wicket in sena can’t wait for him to be exposed on a few tours soon

 

[OverratedSanity]

Good review I think

 

[OverratedSanity]

Yikes. Bangladesh well in this.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Wait what why isn't it out. Shouldn't the 3 m thing only come in if it's umpires call?

Edit : oh, what I said didn't even make sense. Neither did the decision tho. Its plumb.

 

[centurymaker]

Pant has been India's best batsman in the last 2-3 years. Has played more match winning innings than anyone else in the team and has already done more than Dhoni ever did in Test Cricket. I'd already have him in India's ATG XI ahead of MSD.

 

[centurymaker]

as for Kohli he is no longer captain and it seems he doesn’t carry the same clout and influence he once did behind the scenes after Ganguly’s stint. add a huge depth of talent waiting for change and chance topped by a dude with the record of Bradman domestically from a powerful lobby region…… Kohli is done for if he keeps playing like this

Who is this domestic bradman you are referring to?

 

[centurymaker]

It's unfortunate that Pant's missed out on at least... 4 to 5 hundreds recently, as he keeps getting out in the 90s.

 

[centurymaker]

Also how close is Kohli to getting dropped? The last three years he's averaged under 30 and hasn't scored a ton. Sachin had the knives fully out for him for a form slump that was even shorter than that, and that's Sachin! (though admittedly he was much older)

I think there might not be good enough batsmen waiting in the wings, so they are persisting with Kohli.

 

[the big bambino]

Who is this domestic bradman you are referring to?

I too would like to know.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Who is this domestic bradman you are referring to?

My guess is Arjun Tendulkar.

Sarfaraz Khan

this is not true at all

I'd push Shreyas up, get Washy in where Shreyas currently bats. Gives us an option of someone actually being able to bowl in the top 5/6 or whatever too.

 

[cnerd123]

An 87 run lead is massive. India will only need to chase like 60 to win or something. Best case scenario it will be around 130/140, and they'll lose the top order hacks before Iyer and Pant kill the chase.

The fact that our tail is getting out-batted by Unadkat, Yadav and Siraj is an insult.
