he should continue his rant here, considering his post can attract mass downvote on /r/btc.

Ouch, that hurts Ibian 

India is riding Nationalist bull atm which could be a dangerous move in a longer run. But if you are talking about genocide for Commies, then you can stop by here some time, we have a fair share of a fucked up-unique breed of Commies.

WB bro

I was thinking about you (No homo) when you went missing during football and 50k post thingy and i didn't have any idea that you were banned. 2-3 WO regulars are already banned or went missing due to their own reasons, so glad you are back.

Oh, my bad, but in my defense it sounded like Punia during commentary  . After watching this game, it appears to me that Pink panthers only has a couple of good players including Hooda and Gulia. On the other hand, UP Yodda got many players who knew what their role was and stepping up on many occasions continuously.

I enjoyed it and might watch few games more.

@eaLiTy : About merit source

Recently I came across one thread and conversation there clearly suggest that we already have one merit source for Indian board. I don't want to reveal poster's name because it seems to me that s/he doesn't want to come out in the open as an MS, or maybe there are some other reasons.

Guess we all should stop saying that the Indian board needs at least one MS. 

^^^


They (Harris-27- and Bancroft-26-) looks pretty young to me, according to their Test career or if we go by the logic of age, Both are the product of Domestic cricket and performed well in the First Class. Age shouldn't matter much when selecting a team, but Merits Only and I agree that Cricket Boards should back the Young Guns if there are any. (Similar to Pritvi, Shubman, S.Curran,Matt Renshaw)


Guess you forgot Matt Renshaw. he was 20ish when he played his first Test Match for Australia.


With all due respect but you are half wrong and half right (Yes they are performing bad)

1. Warner average is 45ish in the test with 21 tons, even after performing bad. how many Test opener comes to your mind in recent time with this number?
2. Usman Khawaja average is 40ish in test and guess you forgot he made 750ish run in the last calendar year.


Matt Renshaw is leading the list, but his recent performance in First Class is not good as Bancroft that's why Bancroft was the first choice for the Ashes.

Will Pucovski is very talented and promising young talent but still he doesn't have experience as an Opener even in the First Class Cricket and we are talking about International Games and Opening slot. CA can try him in Middle-order though but Wade's Century, M.Marsh's fifer deserve some chances too, Correct? And Paine is Test Captain.( that's pretty much Oz's Middle-order not even including no 3, 4 slot which is a fix for Smith /Marnus L)

Ben McDermott Same as above, plus not talented as Will Pucovski.

No cheat code lfc

Yeah overall they were poor but not against Ind and Pak. Ask any Indian and Pakistani cricket fan 

In Asia Cup they won games against Sri Lanka, Bangladesh in league games. Gave good scare to both Pakistani/Indian fans (Match end up in draw) in Asia Cup and a similar story in WC (Close games).
 

Watching U.P. Yodda vs Jaipur Pink Panthers today, still not aware of rules in details and didn't knew that they had DRS type of thingy for review. its fun though  . one question for you guys, Punia from Jaipur panthers is high cap player?

Yeah, they are excellent T-20 team. Afg can give tough fight Top Ranking Team in the shorter format too. We already have seen a glimpse in the Asia Cup and a couple of matches in the World Cup. But they still have a long way to go.

not worry about Shakib much, he's a champion cricketer and arguably lone warrior for Bengali team. he's going to bounce back sooner or later, just a matter of time. Hopefully Final?

Is there any market where we can bet on Series draw ( not games) ?


Yeah but question is where should he bat. As an opener or 1st down. its very important in Red ball Cricket.

They are struggling to find solid opener, as of now didn't heard any name coming out from their domestic circuit and there are only 3 candidates.

• 1. Warner : Tested solid batsman but going through very bad phase
• 2. Harris : Proved himself in Sheffield Shield but right now he's not looking good as a opener when performing in the International games
• 3. Finch :  He sucks in Red Ball cricket, He played few games but if he continue to play the same then he's Australia KL Rahul. may be someday he can prove himself but atm he looks really bad when Ball seam or swings

And then comes Usman khawaja As of now Cricket Australia consider him as a 1st down batsman. which is working okay for them. but this guy can be their go to opener if they try him more often.He played 7 inning as an opener and scored 484 runs with the average of almost 97 ( 2 century and 2 half century)


[/list]

Got lucky i suppose, Afghanistan already got those 3 match winner player and they can single-handedly win the game for Afghan team. Rashid did good captaincy and made some notable changes with his bowling options and batting order which is working for them as of now. Especially with Gulbadin Naib, he's an okay all-rounder, but sometimes he can be disastrous for his team be it batting or bowling (WC).


Ban team got lucky against Zimbabwe. because zim bowler bowled very bad deliveries to both Hossains and that they punished them rightly.

Indeed nightmare for Warner but I am still backing him. They have a couple of games against Pakistan at home. They can try something out, but the fact is Australia doesn't have any reliable openers in the backup not sure about their domestic cricket, but not many openers stand out in Australia or knocking the door for Test squad.

Australia could try Khwaja for damage control. He's a far better choice in comparison of Finch when we talk about Red Ball Cricket.

Edit :

Draw Series of The Ashes

• 1. 1938 in England            1-1
• 2. 1962/63 in Australia      1-1
• 3. 1965/66 in Australia      1-1
• 4. 1968 in England            1-1
• 5. 1972 in England            2-2
• 6. 2019 in England            2-2

Smith gone so yeah. consider series draw now but The Ashes Trophy going Australia anyway.

T-20 format is hard to predict Bro, but i can make an educated guess about the game. if i have to choose 1 team for today's game then would go with India

India because they already have tested Top order and explosive middle order. Indian bowling looks slightly weak though in the absence of Bumrah-Bhuvi. Current bowling unit is good though, but sometimes pressure can take you in the back seat, no matter how talented you are.

South Africa is filled with the new players so it's hard to judge them but careful what you wish for some time new players can surprise you in a shorter format. There are lots of if and buts with the proteas team atm.

Some stats :

1. Winning the toss can set the tone. out of 6 matches in Dharamsala 4 game won by the team who batted first.
2. Last time India faced SA in T-20 format in India. They lost, and it was an easy win for SA.

On the second game, Bangladesh already got a good start, and they are fav in this game, but I am still rooting for Afghan team because of their spin Triplet. If batsmen can score around 130-145 runs, then they have a fighting chance, and everything is possible with only one good spell. Both teams have a habit of choking in the end though. so any team controlling their nerves can come out as a winner.

Enjoy brother... don't waste your time with the phone. will send some merit on this later.

My eyes are burning after Warner's dismissal, he's now Broad's official Bunny and turn out to be his biggest nemesis in Ashes. he got his wicket 7 times 

Warner's Score in The Ashes :  2, 8 ,3 , 5, 61, 0 , 0 ,0 ,5,11 

   

Welcome to the world of Yoga. its in fashion though. I witnessed a similar thingy when I was working at one East Asian County. At first, I didn't like the idea of this twisted form of Yoga, but a couple of minutes later, I loved it and forgot everything about the right or wrong way. 

Noticed something during the last game. stadium was empty, kinda weird considering Bangladesh is also cricket craze nation. just wondering if by any chance (0.0001 %) bangali team get kicked out  before the finals. then we are going to witness empty stadium again?


Lol I think he's talking about ODI and T-20...
