  1. Washington Sundar has done nothing in white ball with bat to warrant a place. His bowling too only looks to restrict instead of trying to take wickets. I hope he has improved. Rutu and Gill can't score fast in powerplay. We need openers who can strike from ball one and their SR should be 150+ in powerplay. Dubey bowling is pedestrian and his feet are stuck in cement which works in IPL but on International level against good bowling attacks that won't work. Ishan and Yashasvi should open. Ishan has issues but he is attacking in powerplay which we need. Tilak is a solid no.3-4. What is Mukesh doing in t20 is beyond me. Let's see what combination plays tomorrow.
  2. Great. If you still want them then get them from a nearby apple store or reseller.
  3. Exactly. We don't want them to have hitting powers of Andre Russell but atleast make 15-20 runs like a Pat Cummins or Starc. Right now even if we need 30 to win with 4 wickets left I am not sure we will win. Absolutely. I had 0 hopes from them before world cup started. They gave me hope during the tournament with outstanding aggressive approach and crushed it with same timid approach which on display every final since last 10 years. That's what is disappointing. This is a criticism of administration, Coach, captain. No effort to promote the guys who can bowl do some bowling in bilaterals which we play aplenty. Not even in IPL they get a bowl. So obviously we will have batsman who can't now and bowlers who can't bat. This makes it the loss more hard to swallow. And no one will remember this. Only thing which will be remembered was how Indian team lost the final among 1 lac fans with the PM and whole country watching. After winning all matches till now. Such brilliant performance and a single day ruined it all.
  4. Let's see who all can bowl in current squad. Gaikwad doesn't bowl. Yashasvi doesn't bowl. Ishan doesn't bowl + a keeper Jitesh- keeper Tilak- bowls spin Rinku- doesn't bowl SKY- doesn't bowl So issue still remains same. Barring one guy no one bowls in top 6. Axar, Sundar, dubey can bowl and bat but all of them can't play together. Bowlers- bishnoi, Arshdeep, avesh, Prasidh, Mukesh - all duds with the bat. Same issue remains. Top and middle order can't bowl. Lower order can't bat.
  5. He wasnt good in last ipl too. There is a reason DC let him go. Plus he has same symptoms as Siraj. Can't handle pressure. And we need bowlers who can bat in white ball cricket. Especially t20 shouldn't have any place for bowlers who can't hit a few.
  6. Apple tv plus has the best streaming quality of all apps. Be it on tv, laptop or my phone. Next is prime video. Then netflix and last is hotstar. The ringer switch is still there in 15, the button is on pro models. Do watch Severance on apple tv.
  7. He has line and length. But he doesn't have pace. Even in tests he won't work on Australia and SA kind of pitches. And he doesn't fit in white ball at all which was evident in IPL itself. But anyways no harm in trying.
  8. Except for Mukesh Kumar I expected all these. Iyer will be joining in last 2 t20 and will be VC.
  9. Haven't tried them. I prefer the stem design earbuds. And battery life on c700n didn't looked appealing.
  10. Problem isn't we lost. Someone wins and someone loses as it's a game after all. Problem is we played with Champion mindset whole tournament and forgot all that on most important day and didn't even gave a fight. If we had fought like champions and then lose no one will be criticizing them.
  11. They don't have ANC and multi point connection if I remember. C700 N has it.
  12. Get Soundcore liberty 4 NC. Got them last month. Excellent ANC and sound quality. Plus multi device connection works like a charm with my iPhone 15 plus and dell laptop. Battery with Adaptive ANC is around 5 hours for buds and with manual mode 6-7. Without ANC didn't test. I got it for around 6k in sale. Right now they are at 7.5k with 5% cashback in icici Amazon card. In strictly 5k get oppo enco air buds 3 pro.
  13. Precisely why I haven't started them yet. Just not feeling to get emotional especially after India losing the Cup. Will watch them soon though as everyone is praising.
  14. I got no problem with it. Sky has been fantastic in t20. Should have never been drafted in ODI and tests when he didn't had the numbers to back it up. This ODI stupidity will only mess his t20 game. Let him do the format he is good at. And to be honest I Blame selectors and management for playing him. Not his fault he was selected to play a role he wasn't fit for.
  15. They will do this. These guys will play all these players vs Australia etc and when T20 world cup will be near then magically Rohit, KL, Kohli and company will find places in t20 team and these guys will be benched. Have seen it all before.
  16. I would have said sack Rohit from T20 too cos he has been terrible in it off late but I feel for him a little. It's evident he desperately wanted to win this world cup. He couldn't. Although he has won a t20 world cup in 2007 but this was the ultimate win for him. Also his attacking approach at top has been a breath of fresh air. So, continue with him for t20 world cup. But we need a new Captain in ODI for sure. Except for Iyer I don't see any candidate right now. Maybe Pant when he gets back. Can't give it to Bumrah cos he plays selected games due to injury scares. Hardik is as selfish as you can get plus he is made of glass now. KL can't keep his performance going under pressure so no ways he can handle a team captaincy under pressure. Anyways lots of time for that. Let's be honest. We ain't winning t20 world cup as well. We don't have such all rounders for that format and teams like Australia and England and even NZ have plenty for them. You can't win t20 world cup with 6 batters and 5 specialist bowlers. And 6 months is too less a time to find so many and even if there are again I don't trust selectors to do their job. I fully expect people like KL and even Kohli to play t20 world cup.
  17. What learning. BCCI is busy counting IPL Money all year long. Rest of the time they are busy in politics. Selectors are idiotic as usual and select players only on basis of IPL for every format, even tests. Coach and Captain will select team only on basis of favoritism and not on basis of form. Newcomers only warm benches even if they perform better than people getting selected. Players earns in crores and least bothered to play domestic and iron out their flaws. They don't have time to play domestic and improving their game but have ample time to do ads all year long along with playing precious ipl for 2 months. This has been going on since way long and will continue. Only fans care who actually pay with their wallet and time to watch these guys and get disappointed again and again. Trust me. Rinse and repeat will go on.
  18. What rubbish by Dravid. Kohli was taking singles easily. KL didn't even try to take singles let alone hit boundaries. Why didn't they send SKY and Jadeja up the order against Netherlands when they knew they didn't had much batting match practice. Was coach and captain sleeping? Did they cared more about winnings against Neds than preparing for semis and finals. Why didn't the played Ishan and Ashwin against Neds to keep bench strength in groove. Why was sky in the team in first place. 3 ducks in a row. Ishan and even sanju Samson performing better than him in their opportunities but favoritism once again did the selection than merit. Why wasn't ashwin played on Ahmedabad slow pitch in place of Siraj who has done nothing great all world cup and is absolutely dead with the bat especially when hardik isn't there. These management guys only have excuses. Aussies had the execution so they won. Simple.
  19. I think most of us will agree we would have won if we were facing SA in finals. Just because SA chokes better than us when it matters. Aussies are just built different. The way they raise their game to Elite level when it matters most is inspiring and worthy to look into.. Look at their players. Head isn't a cricket superstar but like Gambhir he played the knock which mattered. Labs isn't a good white ball player but played perfect fiddle to heads attacking cricket. Even Smith wasn't out if he had taken the review. Their fielding was amazingly good. They gave just 12 extras in 50 overs. Compare all that to our side. Lackluster fielding and no evident game plan. They had perfect field settings and Bowling plans for everyone. Our Coach was sleeping when it was time to make plans. Playing deadweight like SKY and benching Ashwin for Siraj knowing fully well how good Ashwin has been against Aussies and especially left handers. We needed 10 wickets and Rohit had no slips in position once score crossed 100. Look at KL not even bothering to rotate strike while batting and playing dots like a man possessed not to hit a boundary. You were 3 down, not 7 down to shut off attack completely. No attacking mindset in batting and Bowling. No planning. Can't win finals like that. Why is Jaddu in team. I haven't seen him bat well when needed in a long time. Doesn't win matches with bowling. His fielding has been great but that alone shouldn't warrant a permanent place. Axar has been much better player than him in last 2 years and unfortunate he was injured. But is bcci bothered. Nope. So, I ain't bothered too. ODI are gonna be dead anyways. No one I know watches them outside of World cups and with this defeat no one will bother. I look forward to t20 which gives entertainment in short bursts and the real cricket which is Tests between good teams. Can't wait for Pant to come back in the side. We need more people like him who have the strong attacking winning mentality like Aussies. KL isn't mentally strong and it was evident yesterday.
  20. Didn't we win t20 world cup in SA. Issue isn't country anymore. It's the winning finals mentality. Should do complete overhaul of ODI team. No t20. Only that format specialists who don't have the baggage of yesteryears.
  21. OK I am out. This loss won't sting much as I had low expectations anyways due to on going losses in icc finals since long. India were brilliant till now so they gave some hope but first innings was enough to dash them. They said Rohit will change it and sacked Kohli but story remains the same. Anyways real cricket is T20 and that too leagues 😛
  22. 2003 Aussie team had so many ATG players. This one is very tame in comparison but they have played like true blue champions today which is commendable. And our team has played like sh*t.
  23. He has been useless all world cup like SKY but our dumbf**k management has such a boner for them that they kept Ashwin and Ishan Kishan who is much better than sky in ODI any day of the week out. Pitch is slow and they still didn't play Ash knowing fully well Aussies can't play him with confidence.. Idiots.
  24. Smithy always reviews. Even for plumbs. And he didn't review this 😂
