***Official*** India's Tour of Australia 2020/21 - General discussion

[sunilz]

this was also a series when (after? before?) mushfiqur rahim the little **** posted a photo on twitter with dhoni's beheaded head dripping blood clutched in his hands

bangla ****s were acting like assholes so everyone began hating them at this point that culminated in fist fights at the end of the last u19 world cup final

That was Tashkin holding Dhoni's head before Asia cup final 2016.

I pity @Spark and anyone else who didnt follow that nidahas trophy... the naagin dance, the randycricfreak meltdown, the memes, @Athlai failing to understand we were taking the piss and it wasnt actually the greatest win in Indian ODI history... good times.

Cricket loses in the end.

Cricket loses every day the Nidahas trophy is not being played.

And Rohit was the Captain ?

***Official*** Nidahas Tri-Series T20I Trophy 2018

Considering the pressure on Dinesh Karthik and high profile nature of this series, I would rate this innings greater than Adam Gilchrist's century in final of WC 2007. purists may disagree.

[Athlai]

I want to say I was probably drunk.

 

[Athlai]

Actually I think it was Monday morning. I definitely didn’t read sunilz taking the mick though so that’s a fair cop

If you really think about it Nidahas and Border gavaskar 2021 are very similar. Both had India playing away from home with a third string team and pulling off amazing comeback wins to grab the most important trophy in the respective formats.

The quality of cricket in Nidahas trophy was at par with Packer's World series Cricket.
And 185 million views of the final match on YouTube is a proof of that.

And both didn't have Kohli as Captain ?

This series actually became a meme on CW for a while on terms of people pretending it was the most important tournament in the world. It's on Sri Lanka's channel because it was a tri-series played in Sri Lanka.

It was tbh - Come on, 185 mn viewers aren't wrong

Every one gets that whoever won that trophy would make you simultaneously broken hearted and ecstatic.

Pretending?

The fact that Sri Lanka lost at home to both India B and a flaky BD side after randycricfreak spent the start of the tour proclaiming them as champions was the best.

 

[Daemon]

Everyone keeps bringing up how we played a B side in that historic triumph but when you think about it, the fresh legs were actually an advantage.
