Isn't Bangladesh scheduled to play 2 tests over here in Australia next year?
He is a big loser.

Anyway, I don't want to respond to his low-quality insult. :inti
So you know Bangladesh isn't even playing, yet you dragged them into this thread? Did @sweep_shot stomp on your tail that hard or what? :kp :inti
Looks like Time traveller can't flash forward in time, he should know england plays 2 home series vs Bangladesh and 2 away series(Bangladesh) vs Australia.

Ig the forest didn't have enough resources to manufacture the Delorian properly.
 
Agreed.
Its impossible for him to appreciate or respect other teams or their fans. Comes across as ignorant.
Bro its not juat him, its the other people I fight with as well. Only difference is they dont comment as much and are able to somewhat restrain themsleves and still keep a filter.

Which is fine as not everyone can agree on everything.

This moron is uneducated and has no filter.
 
He was calling India the best team across all formats the other day.

I guess his live streaming buffered so much that it made him miss India's recent test results.
It's still impressive bro. This man has done everything.

1) Built a time machine in a forest.

2) Remote powered an entire forest with Internet connection.

Now Ik what he meant by driving railways being his first job, he using the railway train as a base for the delorian.

Grate scatt saarrr
 
Agreed. But in limited over cricket India is best team currently and in test cricket it has to be South Africa due to recent success.
T20- India
ODI - India
Test - Australia/ South Africa

So accross the format it's india but these wannabe Clown don't know anything.

:kp
 
😂😂😂

Playing the same old broken record aye, Dev? Got any new material for us, mate?

On a side note, how does it feel being outed as a plastic, glory hunting fan time and time again?
You gotta tone down your English communication skills for him to understand.

Too many words fly over his head.
 
India is not the best odi team They've been abusing their powers and have been getting tailored made pitches suited for them.

Its nonsense. They are however the best t20 team. That i agree on.

In test they are atrocious. Ranked no 5 easily. They are far below SENA. Only home Pitch doctoring pitches will let them win
 
Ah mate, interacting with Dev is always good fun.

He's the lovable village idiot that provides much needed comedy relief. 😂😂😂
I remember when I first came onto this forumn. Some of my early interactions with him revolved around

Explaining to him that cricket is both a sport but also a mantis (I am not kidding, this was actually a topic, is cricket a mantis 🤣🤣🤣, only devad can come up with such gems)

Easily the stupidest conversation ive ever had with anyone, be it online or offline.

There is no best ODI team currently

Oh lol another gem was apprantly after the Pakistan vs India war ended, Ricky Ponting pulled a 3 idiots and begged an indian pilot to stop the plane so that he could come back for IPL.

In a span of 24 hours, Ponting

A) Booked a flight during war time

B) stopped the flight and jumped off in a parachute just so he could coach IPL

I seriously wish I was making this up. These arguments are so wack 🤣🤣.
 
@mominsaigol Mate, we have taken it too far this time. We have really upset our good friend Dev. Please don't call him a glory hunter anymore or he might just throw all hus toys out of the pram/chuck a tanty. 😔
Dw, he will eventually respond when he sees a clear opening.

Its a shame India is losing so badly atm. Dw, India Ashes if Australia loses, you will see him in action against you.
 
If Karun gets dropped for the next Test, his fanboys will now say that he got unfairly dropped after a brilliant 50 for the coming years.

Wouldn't expect any less from our good mate, Dev.

I mean, he will be a full blown wannabe supporter during the Ashes like he was during the WTC final but mate, just remember he is not a wannabe supporter even if he acts like a fan girl. 😂😂😂
 
England managed to take six Indian wickets on a bizarre opening day of the decisive Test at The Oval, a day overshadowed by a shoulder injury to Chris Woakes.

Woakes sustained the injury while chasing a ball to the boundary late in the day, leaving the field with his left arm in a makeshift sling—yet another blow to England’s already-depleted pace attack. The injury could have major implications for the series, with England needing to avoid defeat to secure a 2-1 win. They may now be left with just three seamers and the spin options of Jacob Bethell and Joe Root.

In the 64 overs possible between two lengthy rain interruptions, England reduced India to 204-6. However, the score doesn’t fully reflect the erratic nature of England’s bowling, which swung from brilliant to wayward after they won the toss for the fifth consecutive time in the series.

Josh Tongue embodied that inconsistency—struggling at times to find the cut strip but also producing two outstanding deliveries to dismiss Sai Sudharsan and Ravindra Jadeja, both caught behind.

The strange turn of events continued with India captain Shubman Gill, who has been in red-hot form this series, running himself out attempting an ill-advised single. Bowler Gus Atkinson fielded in his follow-through and hit the stumps directly, catching Gill well short.

Atkinson, playing his first senior match in over two months following a hamstring injury, was England’s standout bowler on the day.

India recovered from 153-6 thanks to Karun Nair’s grit, with the right-hander unbeaten on 52 at stumps. With Woakes’ injury looming large, the match remains finely balanced—though England now face the challenge of pushing forward with a weakened bowling lineup.

He wont support anyone during Ashes, he will simply annoy the crap out of anyone.

This dude is an Ai bot. Here are the keywords he will utilise

1) Temu Tendulkar
2) Cheater Smith
3) Tulla Head
4) BGT = Ashes
5) Wannabee supporter
6) I already exposed you
7) You are a lair (Yes lair, not liar as he will take forever to spell Liar)
8) Delusional

^^ Have I missed any other keyword? Oh right :kp

Recently old mate has been using 'Slapped' and 'humiliation' as new keywords. Perhaps, points towards a certain kink/fetish of his? 👀
 
LMAO. True.

They are #1 at derailing the thread. :inti
They will constantly compare BGT to Ashes as well. Talking about attendance record.

Not realising that England is 64M population and Australia is 26M population.

By this logic India vs Afghanistan > Ashes because more people watch India vs Afghanistan then eng vs Aus?
 
These are true English pitch and condition. This will test both sides but if woakes is out, that’s a big blow to them for third innings

India just need to take 18 wickets now. Golden chance for leveling the series against an inexperienced England whose bowling leader is now Josh tongue. Lol
 
The game changer for India
===
Karun Nair has his first fifty of the series, and his first for India since his 303* in December 2016!

Josh Tongue is a 90 mph bowler. He is the second highest wicket taker of the series for England. Better than all the Asian bowlers may be except Bumrah/Siraj. That's it.

Injury is a part of the game, Pant was injured in the last match but still India drew that test . Woakes can bat but is unlikely to bowl which is huge loss for England

No, I think it's different from pant case as he has a shoulder injury now so quite sure won't be able to bat properly

He is just like Umran Malik or Mohammad Hasnain of Pak...a rookie with pace and potential but a lot to learn yet

How ? Pant was injured twice. Once finger injury. He was wincing in pain after each shot. Second one he could barely run. He is a much better keeper than Jurel for fast bowling. Jurel conceded 30 byes. That was the difference in the end.
 
Pant had a toe fracture still he came to bat . only a fighter can do that
It's easy to stand and deliver for some. But a worst injury for a batter could be a shoulder injury and that too to his dominant arm. Shan Watson did the same against India in 2013 ODI series, Maxwell scored 200 on one leg

How is it easy when you have a fractured foot when you can't move your feet much of the front foot or backfoot. This is not cramp like Maxie had. This is actual internal injury.

Depend on injury . Stokes also suffered a shoulder injury in Last test still batted and bowled .
 
Like the NZ call, mate. Very underrated team.

For tests, I'm happy to give South Africa the edge since they beat us in the WTC final.

Overall, no standout team across all formats atm.
South Africa currently in Test cricket

I'd rather go by the rankings than WTC to be honest when it comes to Test cricket.

Happy that SA won the WTC. But they didn't really win anything in Asia or in England, NZ, OZ.
