Black_Hawk Posted July 21, 2019 Report Share Posted July 21, 2019 With the funds frozen after the suspension imposed by the ICC, Zimbabwe Cricket (ZC) has notified in a statement its inability to stage domestic competitions or fulfill the obligations of the Future Tours Programme, which required it to tour Bangladesh for a triangular series including Afghanistan in September. If Zimbabwe don't end up participating, the series is likely to be turned into a bilateral affair. The suspension also bars Zimbabwe from participating in ICC events, meaning it won't be able to able to feature in the women's and men's T20 World Cup Qualifier 2019, respectively scheduled for Scotland in August-September and Dubai in September-October, as of now.

silentassassin Posted July 21, 2019 Report Share Posted July 21, 2019 Everyone here knows what MS has achieved and everyone are showing him great respect. That is y people want him to retire and even get a farewell series as well.. If people were disrespectful , they would have wanted him to be dropped like how Aussies used to treat their seniors. In a country of a Billion people, only 11 will play. So the best 11 has to take the field. Moreover everyone here are simply asking Dhoni to practice what he preached..

harsh1387 Posted July 21, 2019 Report Share Posted July 21, 2019 What is kedar jadhav doing in ODI setup, good for nothing injury prone guy. They should look beyond him, Krunal could have been tried. True that. Would prefer Manish playing instead of kedar anyday and Iyer is perfect for no.4. Also, not too happy with the bowling choices in T20 set up. We should draft more all rounders and power hitters.Test squad looks good and good to see Saha back. Still the best keeper we have though he may not get a match.Sent from my SM-A505F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Right Posted July 21, 2019 Report Share Posted July 21, 2019 (edited) Rohit Sharma has made his come back to Test team.

Black_Hawk Posted July 21, 2019 Report Share Posted July 21, 2019 (edited) Kumar Dharmasena's decision to award England six runs for overthrows instead of five in the last over of the World Cup final is a part of cricketing folklore now, but the debate around his decision continues. Dharmasena has now spoken about it, admitting the "judgemental error" but has argued that the decision was made in consultation with the square leg umpire Marais Erasmus, with the ICC even praising him for the decision he made at the time. "I agree that there was a judgmental error when I see it on TV replays now," Dharmasena told Sunday Times. "But we did not have the luxury of TV replays at the ground and I will never regret the decision I made. Besides, the ICC praised me for the decision I made at that time." Due to Dharmasena's decision, the equation for England came down to 3 needed off 2 balls with Ben Stokes on strike. England were awarded two runs for running between the wickets and four extra runs for the ball that deflected off Stokes's bat and went to the boundary. The only problem was that Stokes and Adil Rashid hadn't crossed at the "instant of the throw or act", meaning they profited with an extra run. Couldn't Dharmasena have used technology to consult with the third umpire then? "There is no provision in the law to refer this to the third umpire as no dismissal was involved," Dharmasena said. "So, I did consult the leg umpire through the communication system which is heard by all other umpires and the match referee. And, while they cannot check TV replays, they all confirmed that the batsmen have completed the run. This is when I made my decision. "One must understand that there were too many things on our plate. We had to watch the batsmen complete the first run, the ball being fielded, how it was handled by the fielder and whether the batsmen completed the second run. And where the throw would come from, the striker's end or non-striker's end. In this case, we were all happy that the batsmen had completed the second run because the ball ricocheted off Stokes's bat at the time of him completing the second run. "So, we assumed that they had crossed each other at the time of fielder releasing the ball. These are things that happen in a cricket field. For instance, an umpire can call a wide or a no-ball wrongly and just because the TV replays shows otherwise, we cannot go back and reverse the match. This is one such incident."

Shaw suffered a hip injury at the Mumbai Premier League T20 tournament in May and is currently undergoing rehabilitation at the National Cricket Academy (NCA) in Bengaluru. It is unclear at this point when he will be back in action. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right Posted July 22, 2019 Report Share Posted July 22, 2019 Kohli doesn't want to lose grip on captaincy. He could've sat out WI LOIs and even BCCI was expecting it. But then possibly realized Rohit might clinch T20 or ODI, given his record as captain is very good. But in view of T2020, it won't hurt if Rohit is made Captain.

roun90 Posted July 22, 2019 Report Share Posted July 22, 2019 Frankly, not that impressed with Kohli as a captain. Has not won a single ICC trophy or even a single IPL. In fact his IPL record is a disaster. Plus too much drama from his side. Maybe captaincy should be given to Rohit Sharma. His record is far better. And from future, BCCI should institute a rule that only those who have proven leadership skills (able to give advise to other team members and the person who commands respect or at least the person who has led in domestic teams/IPL with very good record) should be given captaincy, with the provision to remove the person from captaincy should a single win not come in a major tournament after a reasonable period of time.
