Hardik Pandya is dating Parineeti Chopra.
I guess that is more interesting information that anything that has happened in this series, though I am not quite sure I know who Parineeti Chopra is.

Whatever it takes!!!
IMO Rahane in ODIs and Rohit in tests are basically kept in the squad simply because they are deemed to be too famous to be dropped.

Kohli is now second on the all time list for ODI Hundreds, tight with Ponting and second only to Sachin

Ridiculous

The sheer normalcy of a Sachin 100 at the top of the order batting first, the Kohli 100 in a chase and the MSD NO knock with a match winning six in the last 5 overs are just modern day cricket wonders. We are a bloody lucky nation that we have had these 3 champs play for us within a 30 year window.

Because of the sheer bulk of cricket India plays? I think it's safe to say that Kohli and Tendulkar before him have mastered the art of ODI batting at their respective positions, and would've raised formidable records anywhere else int he world too.

@DanJamson:

Lol.. But my post is just on the quality of cricket these 3 have dished out time and again and in the case of 2 of them, continue to do so. Long may they continue. :)

no doubt. However, it would be difficult for someone to get 50 ODI hundreds playing half their cricket in the often variable English conditions.

You mean the place where 300 and 400 are made like every other ODI these days? Trust me, if English cricket had a Sachin and a Ganguly, those wickets would have become what we see today a lot earlier.

Bangalore, Nagpur, Rajkot, Mohali etc are some of the flattest pitches with the most consistent overhead conditions one would ever play on. (in ODI setup)
