International Captain
Let's cut him some slack for not being read-up on cricketing etiquette. He's a small-town guy who probably had a brainfade in the middle of being smacked all around the park.
Finch doesn't have much IPL form behind him really though and Kohli doesn't use up an overseas player spot. Would also mean ABDV doesn't have to keep whilst you can still have 2 overseas bowling options. Other option would be Parthiv who probably doesn't get into the side if he's not opening - in that case you are either playing Finch in the middle order or dropping him and playing someone like Moeen at 5So has Kohli. They're both just too good to be **** for long I reckon.
Think its just because he's not someone who will score at say a 150 SR and if he is to bat anywhere it'd probably have to be the top 3 and they understandably seem pretty set on Shaw, Dhawan and Iyer as top 3. Think its a shame you've lost the slow and low tracks of say a Kolkata years back in the IPL where someone like a Rahane at the top of the order is gold when the ball is on top of batSurprised that Rahane can’t crack the side
No one is saying that was right. But to think the beamer was intentional is idiotic, even for Sunny G who spent 5 minutes after Mayank played a short arm pull for 4 praising Rohit Sharma who was not even involved in the match.Usually when people bowl a beamer, the common courtesy is to apologise to the batsman.
Not arguing whether the beamer was intentional or not. Just making the point he should have apologised immediately. Nothing else.No one is saying that was right.
