I know you're not in the favour of sledging by any side, you believe in Sachin's type of cricketing. 

I just want to know your thoughts on this one, is it acceptable for you what jaiswal did here. :chucks:

Arey I am no saint :) I just found it odd that few of the players were so aggressive in sledging with such level of performance.

And those David Warner videos are cringe <_<

No no, i was genuinely asking, id it ok what jaiswal did? What if the ball hit him somewhere sensitive area, neck or behind the head. That shot was really brutal, idk how he stopped himself on reacting on it, Im wondering what action would icc take if something like this had really happened?

Apparently Rohit Sharma and Virat kohli to be rested for England ODI series to manage workload and be ready for Champions trophy. Another Joke. When they need match practice to get any form they need rest. What a bunch of jokers.

 

I am sure takes a lot of effort to put workload worth cooking Maggi while batting.

This is perfectly fine imo. Looking at the video, it dsnt seem to be deliberate, unlike Kohli's shoulder bump. Not his headache if the other captain has put a close in fielder. He just played his shot and if he keeps thinking what if the ball hits the fielder every time, that wud definitely increase the chances of him getting out. Captain might then put 3 more close in fielders :D The shot he played might do the opposite and make the captain remove that fielder.

Something similar to when wicket keepers stand very close to wickets to fast bowlers. If the batsman leaves a bowl and that hits the wicket keeper, then its not the fault of batsman or the fast bowler.

Yeah its hard to prove whether its deliberately done or just a random shot.

It's perfectly fine even if it's deliberate.

I feel he meant to hit the ball towards him.

Not for physically hurting him but just intimidating and dominating and making him go away and take away the pressure.

Just like deliberate bouncers to the head are.

Rohit dropped from last test match :good:

 

Kohli should be next. 

I still think kohli can make a comeback, that is if he wants too . play some ranji fix that one fatal flaw and he can make it . rohit sharma from what i see is done in red ball cricket,

There are zero test specialists in the team after Pujara went out. 
 

All these players are spoiled by excessive IPL cricket and they don’t have the patience to last a full day.

Why the hell Australia board can't afford Hot Spot, such stupid DRS setup. It seems every time there is a dubious decision, it has gone against us.

Guess everyone okay with konstas behaving like an a*s as its aussie mentality, when jaiswal does it lot of people lose it 

 

Brave call by GG to drop Rohit. Virat and KL also should be dropped.
KL had 1 good test and complete downfall after that, like any other series for him.

It needs to be agreed by both boards and it's highly expensive compared to other technologies. In fact BCCI opposes Hotspot TECHNOLOGY. Cricket Australia is the only board which used Hotspot technology extensively.

Looks like that behavior of his has already riled up entire Indian team. Nitish literally ran from slip towards Konstas. There is going to be huge celebrations tomorrow once he gets out, if it happens to be Bumrah. God save him!
