He can be very explosive as well. But I agree, he is better off in the middle order as he is a good player of spin. LHB is a rarity in this Indian lineup.Ishan seems like a timid player as a opener. Is he better at middle order?
Does india see something in him?
No. He pulled 2 consecutive bouncers of Nortje to 6s last year. He is good against pace/bounce too.He has issues vs bounce/pace from memory. Similar to iyer but not as bad of a weakness. Maybe he just needs to be more relaxed. He has the power game
What brutal batting. Insane. At this rate they will finish this off in 35 overs itself.
TBH, this pitch deserves this kind of treatment. Felt India really bowled well to restrict Afg to 272 todayIND 87/0 (9)
What a brilliant start by Rohit Sharma
M Nabi is a liability for Afghanistan he slowed the innings didn’t show any intent batted like a fish out of the pondPoor from Nabi
This is not the pitch where their spin trio can weave the magic. Afghans will be dangerous on pitches like Chennai one.Afghan bowling attack is toothless on any decent batting track. They have no pacers who can bowl 145kph above. Not that it would have mattered the way R Sharma blasting them around most bowling attack will flustered.
Directly say it becouse of IPL contract? Isn't it.Atleast Marsh tried to make it look real last match by attempting the catch, Afghanistan aren't even doing that.
The Afghans are way better than Kenya ever were. The only Kenyan player worth naming is Steve Tikolo. Kenya's cricket pretty much closed down when he retired.Would it be bigger than Kenya's upset back in 98? I understand that team was mediocre & will lose 9/10 matches against current team. But still at the end of the day, it was Kenya, an association team, the Afgans definitely have more hype than that Kenyan team.
It is because of IPL that Afghans are even a bit competitive in International Cricket (that too against Pakistan, because Pakistanis don't have experience in IPL, so it matters! Afghans play IPL mode cricket against Pakistan to look more competitive!)Directly say it becouse of IPL contract? Isn't it.
They can’t hope for such pitches all the time can they? They need to produce better middle order batsmen, be able to score big scores and bowlers who can bowl 145kph, need few more pacers. Icc events wickets tend to be on the batting side so their spinners aint gonna get much help.This is not the pitch where their spin trio can weave the magic.

Then why were catches dropped in yesterday's match?Atleast Marsh tried to make it look real last match by attempting the catch, Afghanistan aren't even doing that.

Delhi avge score is 230. ICC has completely changed it for some reason. On this ground flat pitch is a bad idea.
Too small a ground. 500 is achievable on this type of pitch. Need to be some turn at least
They must have relaid the surface. This is not a Kotla "10 inch bounce" wicket.Even in IPL average
Even IPL average first innings score here is 164. In 2023 it was 167. So something changed suddenly. Usually it is very hard to time your strokes here
Exactly. This is why they are a minnow in spite of having a great spin attack. Their batting needs massive improvement and they also need a pacer who can bowl over 145k. Right now their pace bowlers are too slow to trouble the batsmen on flat beds.They can’t hope for such pitches all the time can they?

I liked the Chennai game given that it was bowler friendly. Low scoring thrillers are entertaining.Totally dead tracks for this World Cup are making it really boring.
Now don't pounce on me for saying this in India game... Honestly I didn't even like the South Africa - Sri Lanka game, and although the Pak- SL game was good, it want a 'thriller' by any means. It was a world record run chase but didn't look some thing very special where you can say worthy of a world record... We've seen better run chases with lesser targets in WC many times before.
BCCI and ICC could have done better than this.
This looks more like a T20 pitch. There needs to be some assistance for either pacers or spinners to make the contest even.Totally dead tracks for this World Cup are making it really boring.

Wishing you a success and win 1 Cr. Today with his helpYes, rohit is doing for my FC league, get 100 here
Both are being wary of Rashi and rightly so. When you are getting easy runs against others why take a risk aginst the best bowler.Kishan seems ro have issues vs rashid.
I don't think they have been overly flat except SA-SL game.Totally dead tracks for this World Cup are making it really boring.

30 maxthey look like doing it in about 32 overs!
To be honest, it’s not about heart. I read lot about which people have “heart” against which team, but honestly speaking it doesn’t matter when 11 people enter a field to compete with another set of 11 - regardless of country, colour, language, religion or past.Afghanistan don't have the heart to turn up against India, a populace with which they share barely any commonality.
They're only pulsating out of their chests when they're up against the nation who has helped them the most.
Peculiar bunch of people.
yes. Looks that wayThey must have relaid the surface. This is not a Kotla "10 inch bounce" wicket.
Rohit is devastating when in form. Can single-handedly dismantle any bowling attack.Rohit is a such a effortless hitter .
AR Rehman's magic.Vande Mataram in stadium always is goosebumps moments
Yes good reminder, but since then he has been patheticLast wc, could have won if not Shami.
No mate, No... I don't think any pitch was sportive other than the India-Australia one and the Bangladesh-Afghanistan one.I don't think they have been overly flat except SA-SL game.
These are similar scores to many bilaterals in India.
How many games have crossed even 300?
Only 3 I think.
So are pak thoughAfghanistan are so pathetic vs India.
Helped them the most? US along with Pakistan was instrumental in placing taliban on the heads of the Afghans. Millions fled to Pakistan due to it and now they want to drive them out again. If this is help then i hope no one gets such help.Afghanistan don't have the heart to turn up against India, a populace with which they share barely any commonality.

Those are 200 pitches . Those have not been the norm since like forever.No mate, No... I don't think any pitch was sportive other than the India-Australia one and the Bangladesh-Afghanistan one.
We have to give confidence him before Pakistan game . Gill is out so we have no other optionsYessss....hack Ishan Kishan gone...I am so happy
