India attain their largest ever test victory, beating the West Indies by an innings and 272 runs at Rajkot. It is the West Indies' second largest loss.
Cant say I'm surprised. Considering how India pasted much better teams, this shellacking was definitely on the cardsIndia attain their largest ever test victory, beating the West Indies by an innings and 272 runs at Rajkot. It is the West Indies' second largest loss.
Serious question here, what was worse, this one or the Indian one they got at Lord's a few months ago?Cant say I'm surprised. Considering how India pasted much better teams, this shellacking was definitely on the cards
As a isolated test Lord's was easily worse than Rajkot, but India have the excuse of not being terrible in the rest of the series and the conditions not quite favoring them in that particular test, Overall probably still Lord's given India is the #1 team by rankings.Serious question here, what was worse, this one or the Indian one they got at Lord's a few months ago?
In this list of batsmen with most ODI sixes, only Rohit Sharma and Kieron Pollard hit more than 1 six per innings (1.06 and 1.16 respectively): http://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/content/records/283123.htmlRohit has hit an absurd number of sixes in that list compared to others. 58 to the second best of 24 for Guptill and everyone else having 10 - 20. Makes sense I guess. They are what enable him to get those 200+ scores.
Rohit could get to the 300 mark if he keeps this up.In this list of batsmen with most ODI sixes, only Rohit Sharma and Kieron Pollard hit more than 1 six per innings (1.06 and 1.16 respectively): Records | One-Day Internationals | Batting records | Most sixes in career | ESPNcricinfo
