So, he started caring more about the IPL in the last 26 months? Does that also explain why all other English players have decline in the last couple of years?
 
England bowled really poorly tonight. The ball was doing a fair bit under lights at the start. There was swing, there was variable bounce. But for some reason, England decided that bowling bouncers was the only way to go on this pitch.

Just because Iyer struggles against short-pitched bowling doesn't mean he will struggle with bounce on every wicket. Poor games awareness by England. Let India run away with the game despite those early strikes.

Turning more under lights as well.
 
Odi cricket is boring and dead. Only maybe team like Bangladesh takes it seriously as they have players for this boring format as they don’t have temperament for tests or the firepower for T20s. Still they are a mid tier team lol.
 
Gill totally went into shell for his 100. Don't like this attitude.
No need to finish this early .just practice as much as they wants.

What the point of playing fast now ? He can accelerate at any stage but not needed in this Chase.

But i don't think that is the reason why he takes it slowly. The last over maiden was needless. You should still take singles.
 
Mickey Mouse World T20? Okay.

Real trophies are with Australia and Pakistan (Pakistan have the CT while Aussies have WTC and ODI WC).

:qdkcheeky
Sour grapes ..

We have more ICC trophy than combined Bangladesh and Pakistan.


:kp
 
India is cruising. We need wickets ASAP

Bangladesh playing Champions Trophy ahead of Srilanka and Windies is the biggest scam. Both are far better sides than Bangladesh if they can pull their T20 mercenaries into the side.
 
Looking at Today's match i have to say Shami shouldn't be playing CT. He is not even 20% fit. Continue playing Harshit Rana and Arshdeep. It is not an important tournament. Arshdeep, Rana, Pandya, Axar, Jadeja, Kuldeep will do world of good.

Despite all the preferential treatments from ICC and being the richest cricket board, India have won 1 ICC trophy in 12 years. That too against choker South Africa.

Ever since Ishan Kishan smashed their midget bowlers for 200, Bangladesh have been terrible against top sides. Much worse than SL and WI.

Their best ODI bat is still that 39 year old grey haired bat Mahmudullah .

And they have no one available in domestic either. Awful , talentless nation.
 
Gill reminds me of a poor man's Babar. Steady accumulator but without Babar's ability against the bigger sides in ODI WCs.

We have more trophies than your nations ( pakistan and Bangladesh) .

After playing more than 30 years Bangladesh hasn't achieved anything. They are forever minnow

Zero ICC trophy or even never played a ICC tournament finals .

You are always remains losser's team supporter

Indian posters have suddenly found their voices. They were silent during the Test series (8 matches, 1 win, 1 draw, 6 losses).

Waiting for Aussies to humble them again.

Looking at your country performance you're born to humiliated by Indian fan's .

Forever remains silent infornt of us.

England does have players. The old garbage need to be chucked out first.
In T20 cricket , you don't. In ODI cricket , your youngsters don't even play the format even at List A level, so again, you don't have the players.

In the last 2 yeasr England played 2nd highest number of players. Total of 37 players played ODI. They have tried everyone. This is the same side that is going to play CT as well. They struggle against teams with decent spin attack.
 
Shuffling your batting order in every ODI is kinda dumb imo. In T20, it's a different story altogether. In ODI, changing your order constantly means guys don't get settled in their positions. India have been doing this since the Sri Lanka series and I don't think it has worked out for them.
 
Gets out just as I say that. What a waste of a spot.

Rohit KL and Kohli are all playing on superstar quota currently.

Since SL serises? Lol This is the first series after SL series. India hardly played any game since then.
 
Hahaha KL Rahul gone .

2nd positive from this match

First was Rohit Sharma wicket

Gill is back to the form is another positive

It definitely doesn't work as they have failed to win any ODI trophy since 2013.

They should learn from Australia how to come up with a side that can win ICC trophies.
 
Not on this pitch. This is 300 runs pitch but england brainless batting cost them .

They should have scored over 300 after such a great start.

:kp
The ball was doing a fair bit at the start and now there is plenty of turn on offer. England assessed the conditions poorly and bowled too much short stuff. Had they taken out India's top order this would have been a trickier chase for India
 
This is what happens when you value arbitrary milestones over winning the game for your country.

Kohli has set a very bad precedent with those knocks he played in the world cup.
 
Poms need to learn how to bat whole 50 overs , if they had done so , they could have got another 20 runs
 
Don't get too excited next time.

Cricket is a funny game.

:inti
This is not minnow bangladesh team who had lost the match even after they needed 2 runs from three balls against india.

And how was chotu ( Rahim) celebrated after hitting 2 four but eventually lost the match

:kp
 
India has solid depth in batting , Poms will have to find a way to get 300 as a batting unit to compete in this series.
 
This was one poor bowling line up for INdia

Injured Shami
Debutant Harshit
Hardik
Kuldeep
Jaddu
Axar
 
They have been over attacking , and that has even denied them competitive totals.
Yes .root was supposed to best spin player but missed a straight ball .

They can't Play the spinners as simple as that .
