silentassassin Posted January 17, 2020 Report Share Posted January 17, 2020 Excellent win. What a knock by Rahul Excellent knock. So many yorkers at the end. So good to watch. Yorkers at pace.. Brilliant. Also is it just me, or does anyone else think Rahul has kept better than Pant. No byes, no missed catches or stumpings. Felt he was really good.

Hopefully pandya is back soon. Pandya will be back from IPL. Pandya in place of Iyer / Jadeja depending on the conditions. The way Iyer is playing, can play Dube in place of Iyer. Power hitter + a bowling option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAZ Posted January 18, 2020 Report Share Posted January 18, 2020 Rahul was way better than Pant yesterday. It will be foolish of Kohli to play pant again, Let him perform in the domestic/IPL season then give him another chance. For now we have Rahul as wk/#4 bat. Most likely this is the team for this year except pandya coming in for Manish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most likely this is the team for this year except pandya coming in for Manish. He was quite good. But, I would still back Pant up. Rahul is a specialist batsman and he should only concentrate on that. Keeping every match for 50 overs takes it toll and may mess up his batting which we don't want. Also, plz don't forget Rahul is playing Internationals since last 6 years where Pant is a newcomer. As Rahul and even someone like Rohit sharma needed time to find his groove so does Pant. Also Pant being in A grade contract I dont see him going away soon.Sent from my SM-A505F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtheK Posted January 19, 2020 Report Share Posted January 19, 2020 On paytm prices started at 4000, no wonder so many empty seats. Greed in Bangalore is off the roof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAZ Posted January 19, 2020 Report Share Posted January 19, 2020 (edited) This is going to be a tough chase.. Dont think Iyer & Pandey can chase in the death. Kohli or Rohit needs to bat 50 overs only then we can win this. Edited January 19, 2020 by TAZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black_Hawk Posted January 19, 2020 Report Share Posted January 19, 2020 Rohit with a lovely century. 82 of 84 required now, should get this. @AtheK Bhai, are you at the stadium? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harsh1387 Posted January 19, 2020 Report Share Posted January 19, 2020 Flawless win. Can't blame Kohli for going for his 100. He deserved it. MoM should be Rohit and series can be Kohli or Smith. Even Shami. Ind vs Aus is the greatest rivalry in last few years. T20 world cup will be a lot of fun. Sent from my SM-A505F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[emoji3]I thought of going, tickets were way too expensive, around 13k just for tickets for 3 of us. Will probably go for one IPL match, little one likes cricket so he will be happy, but for him sitting through 100 ovs would be tough. Dhoni being his fav, will try to get CSK vs RCB match ticket.

silentassassin Posted January 19, 2020 Report Share Posted January 19, 2020 Excellent win. Doing with a batsman short Was flawless victory. Bowling was sooo good as well. Irony Bumrah cud'nt get wickets, bowled beautifully. Stadium was pretty packed for Indian innings. Was a much better crowd than India v SA T20 match.

harsh1387 Posted January 21, 2020 Report Share Posted January 21, 2020 Ishant Sharma injures ankle ahead of New Zealand tour [emoji20]Unfortunate. He would be highly useful on NZ pitches. There is still time and if it isn't a fracture he can make it.Judging by Kohlis comments its gonna be very tough for Pant to make a comeback in the team. However if Dhawan is injured and Rahul opens then Pant might play otherwise Pandey at 6 might continue.Sent from my SM-A505F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think its about time they realised that they have invested too much time in him & given more than enough chances to prove his worth. But we still need a test keeper, Rahul isnt the perfect test batsmen, So pant might get a chance to play in the test matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In tests too Saha has proved to be a better keeper so he maybe the first choice. Pant has only himself to blame. Shoddy keeping and braindead batting will be his undoing.Sent from my SM-A505F using Tapatalk 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silentassassin Posted January 21, 2020 Report Share Posted January 21, 2020 Pant's keeping not being good has no excuses at all. Its very poor. Shaw picked in place of injured Dhawan. Shaw is highly talented, but i think Mayank deserved the 1st crack at the spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
