    Javagal Srinath vs. Mohd Siraj – the better test bowler

    Is comparing Siraj with Srinath that off? Srinath rarely had the impactful performances that Siraj has already had. Obviously it has a lot to do with the support cast, I acknowledge. It's interesting exercise at this point to think how far Siraj may have climbed in all time India pace bowlers...

    Like always, the answer is Jadeja

    50s/60s vs 90s/2000s

    Jim Laker or Hugh Tayfield over Lance Gibbs. Edit: It will in fact be home ground for Tayfield.

    Indian Cricket Dhaba

    We lost last home series 0-3. That's why.

    India should appoint jason Gillespie or andy flower as red ball coach

    When does he not feel vindicated? Only Trump is hungrier for credit.

    *Official* India tour of England 2025 General Discussion

    Ordinary figures for our 4th bowler whether you designate Jadeja/Sundar as one or Shardul/NKR as one. I hope India starts picking better 4th bowler. Jadeja and Sundar can play in top 7 as batsmen, forget they bowl outside subcontinent.

    *Official* India tour of England 2025 General Discussion

    This series has 2nd highest aggregate runs ever. It will fall just short of one 6-test series https://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/stats/index.html?class=1;filter=advanced;orderby=runs;template=results;tournament_type=2;type=aggregate;view=series

    5th Test (The Oval) - 31st July to 4th August

    They didn't need Stokes to do much the last couple of times they chased 37X against India.

    What we learned from the 4th test

    Thank God England lost that test. Otherwise that moment of extraordinary stupidity would have been celebrated as another win for bazball.

    Yeah voting for Miller in top 6 for an ATG team is a terrible idea.

    Gambhir being a jerk for no reason

    Someone here legit started a thread and said no one with less than thousand posts should reply.

    Gambhir being a jerk for no reason

    I am going to guess it must be like being around a school principal who could snap at any moment. Even when he was praising Pant in the dressing room for batting with a fractured toe it felt like he was telling others that they can never be this courageous.

    Gambhir being a jerk for no reason

    Yeah the classist hierarchy based attitude permeates the whole of Indian culture. I was once shoved aside at Chennai airport by a politician's lacky who had come to pick his master. It's unconscious but it's deeply ingrained and sometimes its expression is subtle. I think I have had to unlearn...

    Gambhir being a jerk for no reason

    Is that a thing in other parts of the world? I thought that's a very specific Delhi/Northern India thing.

    Gambhir being a jerk for no reason

    Yes

    Gambhir being a jerk for no reason

    Just two Delhi guys showing respect to each other.
