    Amen.

    ***Official*** Indian Premier League 2018

    Yusuf should either be in the top 4 or out of the team. This lower order hitter tag has been hurting him since forever, if you check his record, he has scored only when he has came in early to bat with enough overs in hand. I see guys like Hardik Pandya and Raina as players who can come in and...

    ***Official*** Indian Premier League 2018

    Tbh, with that super flat Bangalore pitch and dew being a factor, RCB should have focussed more on their bowling options in the auction. Plus, at this stage it's quite clear that they lack in the bowling department and are reliant on their batting to do the job, why not just Bring Moeen in and...

    ***Official*** Indian Premier League 2018

    As much as I hate Rohit Sharma's attitude and the fact that I enjoyed that SRH victory, I have to say that the Wankhede wicket can turn into a bowling paradise if there is no dew and the surface has a little bit of moisture. Usually there is so much of dew that bowling is extremely tough.

    ***Official*** Indian Premier League 2018

    Yap, who says T20s can't be exciting on tracks that support bowlers. Loved the game, such games only get boring when you pay a ticket to watch it in the stadium. Also, Yusuf and Kane's 29 apiece were crucial, the pitch was pretty good for bowling.

    ***Official*** England in New Zealand 2018

    Am I the only one who tunes in just to watch de Grandhomme's butter smooth bowling?

    Baggy Green ball tampering: Bancroft, Smith and the Aussie "Leadership Group"

    Gambhir is spot on here. https://twitter.com/GautamGambhir/status/979353660730888193 https://twitter.com/GautamGambhir/status/979361080857235456

    Baggy Green ball tampering: Bancroft, Smith and the Aussie "Leadership Group"

    This is just really sad. I mean why are they taking him away like a terrorist?

    Baggy Green ball tampering: Bancroft, Smith and the Aussie "Leadership Group"

    All I see is a bunch of idiots grabbing some limelight at the cost of these hard-working cricketers. Yes they did make a mistake, but it was nowhere as big as people are making it look.

    ***Official*** Australia in South Africa 2018

    So the BCCI bans them from playing the IPL too. That's plain BS. I don't know why people are going with the flow and overreacting to this situation. It was ball tampering, not match fixing.

    Baggy Green ball tampering: Bancroft, Smith and the Aussie "Leadership Group"

    On a serious note, this is just ridiculous. 12 months ban for ball-tampering?? This is the board's attempt to show the world that "look, we took firm action". It's like giving someone a life sentence for a small robbery.

    Baggy Green ball tampering: Bancroft, Smith and the Aussie "Leadership Group"

    I think so. Warner is an idiot, so won't defend him. But the overreaction is just too much. I know other Aussie cricketers doing stuff that was way out of line than this incident. This is just too much drama over a petty incident. Who cares? They did something childish on the field and that's...

    Smith's ball teaches the art of ball tampering.

    Baggy Green ball tampering: Bancroft, Smith and the Aussie "Leadership Group"

    Tough stance? People creating drama and seeking attention over an issue that is a lot smaller than other key problems in the country is stupid. Why the foowark would the PM of Australia come out and pass statements on a minor cheating incident in a sport? And just LOL at people asking for the...

    Baggy Green ball tampering: Bancroft, Smith and the Aussie "Leadership Group"

    Personally I have never been a fan of Bhajji, but isn't he right about this?

    Baggy Green ball tampering: Bancroft, Smith and the Aussie "Leadership Group"

    Agreed, without evidence you can't really decide. And at that time, I don't think people in India even knew that the supposed word that was used was a racial slur, and even if Harbhajan knew about it, I doubt if he said anything like that. It's harsh to make a decision on the word of a player.

    Baggy Green ball tampering: Bancroft, Smith and the Aussie "Leadership Group"

    What's up with this overreaction. I mean they did make a mistake, accepted it and are ready for whatever action the ICC/ACB takes against them. This doesn't need to be blown out of proportion. Smith and the others are bold enough to accept their mistakes. For me, Smith's reaction to Rabada's...

    ***Official*** Australia in South Africa 2018

    LOL, just read the article I read below. I am not an anti-Australian, although I have trolled a few people in the past. But things like these make my blood boil, so the Australian crowds being racist and disrepectful is fine, but they make a big issue of things when they are at the receiving...
