What's new

Australia [258/0] beat India [255] by 10 wickets in the first ODI, lead series 1-0

A selfish knock has come to an end. Batted purely for his 50 and got out before that.
Remove him from the team, making him bat at 3 distrubs the entire batting order.. Ur best batsmen batting at 4 and iyer seems to be settled at 4 now playing at 5.if u want rahul to play, play him at 5 or 6 he can't do worse of grandpa jadhav.
 
Indian selectors are not as stupid as people think they are so this iyer guy is trash lol he can only hit spinners too like pant and pandya no wonder he was dropped for so long I thought he was pretty good but when you play against a quality opposition you get exposed badly
 
loooiol. calm down. india will still win this. Australia bowling well today.

iyer out. iyer should never play again. he sucks vs pace.
 
Pretty good spell from Zampa. Tidy RR & the prize wicket of Kohli once again. It was a clear strategy to get him on to bowl at Kohli before he was set & it paid big time.

I think India are wobbly here. Oz attack has been very disciplined & relentless all day so far. They've now worked their way on top & aren't known for relaxing once they get a grip on the game.
 
India's solution for middle order is not beefing up top order and pushing players down. You have to pick proper players to play in proper places.

Lol you think so it’s wnaakhede chasing with due and ur not gonna bowl to hemron shtmyer and Rajapskha

Dude lol what are you talking. Hetmyer singlehandedl won the ODI for Windies with 134. They are as dangerous as Australia with bat. Just that bowling sucks for them.
 
Starc has that old ball reversing & starting to find his yorker length... not going to be easy at all for the lower order.
 
Starc is angry lol I know the same pair Jadeja and Pant smashed Starc all over at the SCG with a 200 partnership.

we shall see. I wouldn't count india out. but anyway lol at iyer rofl hahahha. how is this guy a professional player?
useless vs pace
 
Hope Australia exposes all the holes of India they have been carrying since 2017.

There is no place for Dhawan Thakur etc in the team.

Gill should be playing.

But this team management doesnt learn. Or rather refuses to learn.
 
People are being a bit unfair in judging Iyer. Apparently, it does looks like he has a weakness against the short ball. That's no big deal. Most young players from sub-continent has it. What is important now is how he overcomes it.

I don't think he has a game plan.

He scammed me so badly I watched IPL and another one of his odi innings and I was like damn mans can play today I saw him ducking that short ball so awkwardly like he did not want to be there for another minute he wasn’t even so ****** about getting out he looked fine with it. It was like he was happy he didn’t cop a blow from the short ball and got out to a good length delivery instead poor poor technique

How is there no place for dhawan he was your top batsman today. That injury was so unfortunate it cost India the World Cup and yet he’s come back and performed better than fancy 40 rahul

Rahul has a higher ceiling and likely to play longer than a 34 year old who is suspect to the short ball.

KL Rahul is a solid T20 player. But in one dayer he is still behind Dhawan.

Tbh he’s been crucked up really bad he’s a Genuine opener they cannot keep twisting the guys batting slot same thing like kohli if someone pulls up his stats for number 3 and 4 his average would significantly drop. India has to play either one of the two rahul or Dhawan there is no way he can come in at 3 ahead of the worlds best batsman is this a joke.
 
Really surprised India can't get Agar's leg stump line away... He's a decent spinner but not really in the top bracket & pitch has no demons...
 
A player like Ashton agar is bowling maidens in 38th over in wahnkde against India this is a shame. I can guarantee if kohli had played at number 3 this over would have gone for 15+ minimum.

He is old, we have to pick a team for 2023 and dhawan has no place in it. Nor does rahul, he is a t20 guy who can at best be a no 6 guy who can be used in a keeper role if pant flops, we need to get gill/shaw into the team, sadly Kaptaan isn't that big on stuff that requires him to think things through and coach is useless.

Can't wait for rohit to captain this team in LoI's once kaptaan screws up in t20 wc.
 
There is one thing the whole cricketing world can agree on the best fielder and most agile guy on cricket field is jadeja no one even comes close
 
This is hopeless. ONce top 3 or 4 out that's it .Match is effectively over for India. Gone are the days of Dhoni, Yuvraj, Raina.

I want to see Jadeja on slips if he gets perfect on that position then I will rate him as greatest all round fielder I have seen.
 
Does this short chubby kid think he will look cool if he takes his one hand off the bat every times he plays a shot for a single as well

That’s not even a major part except test cricket the amount of runs you save in the outfield and make run out opportunities that’s what counts and no one is better at that than him

Jadeja plays test cricket.
 
Ashton Agar is such a pie chucker loL can't believe he got away like this. Thank you Jaddu. Missing full tosses
 
Finally ag ood over against Agar. Should have happened long back. Dhawan and KL Rahul absolutely wasted this.
 
Honestly 6 down doesn't mean your team is out . Is the case for most teams except India. 4 down they are out.
 
Nope I rate Azharuddin as the best Asian fielder,he has proved everywhere.

Except when he dropped two of the back fo back sitters in SA lol . I still don't know how anyone could drop such an easy catch. But given his history of cheating we never what happened there.
 
Thakur is dismissive against Cummins. But this is how batsmen pay at the wankhede. No idea why India was playing so badly giving maiden overs to Agar.

Gibbs who was a good fielder dropped the easy catch of Steve Waugh at World Cup.
He cheated but we are talking about fielding.

Cummins is not such a threatening ODI bowler like Starc. Kane is also barely average. So no excuse for INdia floundering here.
 
Why isn’t Maxwell playing? He is in tremendous form.
 
Is the wicket sluggish and hard to bat on? Or is it a flat one?

Still Cummins picks up wickets and was highest wicket taker in ODI series against India last year.
