    *Official* England in India 2023/24 #CryMoreTour

    I dont think bazball was coined by the English team or Mccullum. It was a media buzzword that took off while trying to label the brand of English pacy strokeplay. Otherwise why would Naseer Hussain claim so that it was coined by the media?

    He still bowls at 130s and chases ball to the boundries like a kid.

    Anderson was played for the records but still he did well in one test if i remember it right where he picked 5 for the match. The veteran grandmaster deserved his 700th scalp in India.

    *Official* England in India 2023/24 #CryMoreTour

    That test was won because of bridging down the first innings lead to under 50 and Ashwin's two bouncy unplayable top spin deliveries back to back to dismiss Ducket and Pope before they could settle. Rohit tossing the ball to Ashwin set the tone. Early in the innings to a 500 club bowler, the...

    The bivgest difference is Stokes is a liability to the team while Kuldeep is an asset.

    *Official* England in India 2023/24 #CryMoreTour

    Test cricket calander is shortened by ipl. Mostly those ipl stellar participants are not a part of test team anyhow. So those days of ipl seasons should not come in the way of fielding a test team for a bilateral 4 or 5 match series. Thats a month each year and lets say in 5 years we have 20...

    *Official* England in India 2023/24 #CryMoreTour

    Australia and India have beaten them convinsingly at home and equalled a series in their home turf with England having to win from being down in the series at home. That shows England is a cut below quality teams. Weak is as weak does. They probably need to add more salt to their diet so they...

    The point is with Branden Mccullum's innovative coaching approach, added to the equation, England were paper tigers this time with swashbuckling approach, yet, didn't pass the mount Olympus lava litmus test.

    Rogue hit and jazball will wreck England if they continue.

    Tbh, the Aussies would go for a grace saving 3-2 defeat in the same circumstances. Somehow the English are not tough in nature.

    England gave up once Kuldeep had his first wicket. Lack of fighting spirit. Looks like an innings defeat on cards. The English crumble under pressure and look like amateurs.

    Its been a pattern that India loses its first test but goes on to win or draw the series - vs England 2021, 2024, vs Australia 2020-21, vs SA 2023.

    I think we were 2-1 up the last time we toured and you guys beat us after a break or else we did well to punch you in your own home passing through your own moat and made you surrender and call for mercy.

    I want Rohit Sharma to play Drazball (Dravid's Brandon Mcmillan nemesis) and be the wall on defence and latch out at bad balls. Tomorrow is a day when Virat Kohli will be missed.

    *Official* England in India 2023/24 #CryMoreTour

    Ashwin grabs his 35th 5 for in style. India with a glimmer of hope after conceeding a near 50 runs lead. 40 for no loss is a start that gives 20% chance. But England is in the driver seat as wickets can tumble in this pitch with spinners having a go right through and close in fielders kept in a...

    As Kohli's beard grows bigger so is his inability to win tosses and score centuries.

    *Official* India v England 3-ODI series at Maharashtra CA Stadium, Pune

    The English really fought hard in Indian conditions and did not look jaded even after a long tour. If India did the same performance in England, I would have said India has real grit and resilience.

    *Official* India v England 3-ODI series at Maharashtra CA Stadium, Pune

    Shardul almost messed it up by conceeding 20 runs towards the end bowling off cutters at short length and by dropping a straightforward catch. He got lucky this time or he would have been thrashed left right and center by media.

    *Official* India v England 3-ODI series at Maharashtra CA Stadium, Pune

    India starts off the first 15-20 overs at 4.5 runs an over. In that phase batsmen look like test cricketers trying to build a good total without losing wickets in an odi. They have to start at 7+ per over and in the middle overs reach maybe 8 per over and end up close to 400 scores if they need...
