Hopefully someone has a GIF of that Kohli facial reaction to the flick for 4 he did off Neesham. Was pure deliciousness.

Once again Virat Poohli proving he can only bat when his beautiful skin isn't at risk of being ravaged by solar rays.

Whatever it takes!!!
Yeah that seems fair. But then four overthrows are kinda stupid. If the batsmen complete 2 runs and then there's an overthrow for four, they get 6 runs total. But if they run 2 before the ball reaches the boundary, and the fielder misfields it and the ball crosses the boundary, it's just 4 runs. I think in both situations, the batting team should either get only 4 or get 6. They're basically identical.

Man, cricket rules are stupid sometimes.
What???

275 would have been decent score
Honestly think it would have been. NZ should have bowled better in the middle. The dew was nowhere near being as much of a factor as it can be at Mohali. Maybe another spinner might have helped instead of either Neesham or Southee??

yes imo, India don't have that strong a batting line-up where 280+ is a stroll in the park. 60-40 game, maybe even closer.
Weirdly, I was so confident that I watched the entire game on my cell phone, which I never do these days as we have only lost the other games I watched on it earlier.


Flem also missed the opportunity to call him "wahhhabhajan" or "wahhhji"
Yep, esp. after his waahhhs about the pitches.

Rahane needs to be dropped tbh. Viriya was right.
Think he will be once Dhawan and Rahul are back. Would still give Dhawan a go first before KL. KL can probably slot in at 5 too.

Thanks Rosco.
Just amazing how many seem to have thought it was the game right there and even more amazing that Kohli actually proves them all right.

You have not been in good form, have you? When will you get your Dhoni at #4 moment :p


So Dhoni played at 4 and played a fine knock. Something I've wanted him to do for about 5 years.

Sometimes I really wonder why captains, coaches, selectors etc. don't see simple things that fans clearly see
Think it is because the younger players who did come into the side did not look upto it as a finisher. I hope with Jadhav, Jadeja, Pandya there, it does let MS bat at 4 for a while. You can throw in Raina there too.

An ideal side I would like to see at the CT

Rohit
Dhawan
Kohli (vc)
MSD (c) (wk)
Raina
Jadhav
Jadeja
Pandya
Ashwin
Shami
Bumrah

I'll pay whom I choose to drive me to work, thank you very much!

Besides, more likely to get that sort of music in a cab here than an Uber tbh.

Uberpool is great, they're competing with Grab here and keep rolling out big discounts every week. Just yesterday I got to uni for $3.20 when a normal cab costs $15-18.
