*Official* India in West Indies and the USA - JUL 22 to AUG 7, 2022

[SillyCowCorner1]

I just read that the start of the 2nd T20 has been delayed by 2 hours, citing luggage problems.

I think everyone was partying too late last night

Don't they reduce the overs still

I don’t think that’s necessary. It’s just rescheduled.

They did beat England in T20 series earlier this year & BD as well. So not awful at least in T20s.

Beating Bangladesh in T20Is is no big achievement these days tbf

Beating Bangladesh in T20Is is no big achievement these days tbf

But beating England still counts.

 

[slippy888]

Terrible batting performance from India this

 

[slippy888]

Why is Yadav opening batting and not pant it don't make sense

Why is Yadav opening batting and not pant it don't make sense

Yes. SKY moving up and down every match is not good.

 

[Niall]

Its infuriating how badly Hooda has been treated by the selectors.

Please bore off with "he only scored runs against Ireland" drivel, he is the type of cricketer India have been crying out for ages in t20 ad nowhere to be seen despite smashing it in the few opportunities he got.

 

[Starfighter]

So, will WI manage to stuff this up?

Looks like we’re about to bottle it

 

[Starfighter]

That was a bit close for comfort.

 

[slippy888]

Avesh khan is a average cricketer why continue picking him

 

[Tom Flint]

Well played thomas. Thought they were going to mess it up by putting Powell and Smith above holder who has a cool head for a chase like that one

 

[Beamer]

The reason it got that close is because we are out of the habit of winning. We needed that badly

Obed McCoy is an absolute gun, I keep saying it. I really hope he can stay fit enough to join the ODI set up too.

 

[Socerer 01]

****ing hell how do you not play Axar when Jadeja is rested? The former is literally as close to a Jadeja clone as you can get. Instead we play Hooda out of position because why not ruin two birds with one rock

 

[Daemon]

They’re basically trying all sorts of permutations and combinations to find out who’s suited for this level and to make sure we have flexibility if players get injured.

Don’t disagree with the concept but it isn’t being executed very well. No reason for Sky to open for example.

 

[Arachnodouche]

Personally not a fan of trying out combos this close to a big tournament. There is such a thing as momentum heading into an event; you need to let a team come together in advance and feed off each other's collective form. I don't know how many more games we have before the WC but I'd like to see the core 7 or so players get a run of at least 5 consecutive "real" games (not the silly warmups they usually get to play in parking lots).

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

A ton of wickets in hand and 6 overs to go. They need to pick up the scoring rate

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Avesh with another abysmal bowling performance,

3 overs for 47
