India (376 & 287/4d) crush Bangladesh (149 & 234) in 1st Test by 280 runs, taking 1-0 lead in 2-Test match series

[Devadwal]

This humid weather is Chennai is not good for pacers to have longer spells.
BCCI should have rest Bumrah for the atleast 1st test.

Nah . he will get rest in 2nd test .

 

[jnaveen1980]

300 will be a good score.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Early 2 wickets. Can we refrain India from posting a big total?

As some poster has mentioned, in the past year or two, bulk of Indian scoring was coming from lower middle order and all rounders.

Even if all main batsmen fail, India somehow manages 300 odd runs. Enough to bundle up the opposition.

 

[Unbiased-Fan]

Can Virat Kohli bring his test average back to 50?
It would be shame if he retired averaging less than 50.

 

[Devadwal]

No Axar to save the hyped up batsmen.

Akashdeep is no mug with bat .he can score handy runs but yea he is not Axar level.

Jadeja ,Ashwin and axar are the MVP in Indian cricket at home .

 

[jnaveen1980]

Taskin has real stamina to bowl 5 overs on the trot in hot and humid chennai.

Age has caught up to him. If he can’t score big against BD, there is no hope for him against Aus.

 

[jnaveen1980]

yea. Reflexes are shot. Also temperament is not the same.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Taskin has real stamina to bowl 5 overs on the trot in hot and humid chennai.

He has the body of a Pak fast bowler. Not slender like we typically see from BD.

 

[Devadwal]

5 test century loading for king in next 10 test .

He is hungry now

Jinx - Gone

 

[jnaveen1980]

Kohli gone.

 

[MP2011]

lol Kohli gone too.

 

[MANU ROY]

Two walking wicket gone one to coming

 

[Smbhayi]

Kohli gone.. Should've leave that ball..

 

[jnaveen1980]

3rd guy who skipped Duleep Trophy gone.

 

[kron]

Useless kohli and Gill. Never wanted these 2 clowns to play in India. Absolutely useless.

 

[RashelHassan]

Kohli gone. Good toss to win.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Kohli can retire from Tests. Horrible shot to play in Tests.

 

[jnaveen1980]

India misses a guy like Pujara (not the current Pujara. Old pujara) to see off a spell with maidens after maidens.

 

[Dios]

Hasan Mahmud on fire.

 

[Devadwal]

150 all 0ut?

 

[MANU ROY]

Lol they sent pant not dump kl

 

[kron]

Kohli is a loser. I don't care what anyone says. He never had the game for spin. He should be dropped in tests permanently. Go back to London. Just stay there. Quit playing for India in tests. Bye

 

[MP2011]

Kohli can retire from Tests. Horrible shot to play in Tests.

He is too egoistic to do that. He'll need to be pushed out which BCCI is not capable of doing.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Kohli gone.. Should've leave that ball..

He can’t. Grumpy old men have no patience.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Lol they sent pant not dump kl

Pressure and KL rahul don't go hand in hand

 

[MANU ROY]

150 all 0ut?

They dropped two match winner from last series

 

[kron]

Kohki always trash. Chokli biggest fraud in tests vs spin. Drop him from tests too. No need for this washed up has been in australia. Gill is useless too

 

[kron]

Pressure and KL rahul don't go hand in hand

He pees in his pants under pressure. Most useless player in history of india that is actually talented. Zero mental strength.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Two gifted wickets. Rohit wicket was good one. But Kohli was owned by Jansen and that tall new Zealand bowler by bowling 6th stump line.

 

[kron]

Pathetic losers. Gambir should be ashamed of himself for allowing these bozos to play. Pick on merit.

 

[Vikram1989]

So pant who has not played from past 2 years in test matches was preferred for kl who is playing ever .what is the point of KL in the team. It's not even left hand excuse as jaiswal is there.

 

[kron]

Two gifted wickets. Rohit wicket was good one. But Kohli was owned by Jansen and that tall new Zealand bowler by bowling 6th stump line.

Kohli is finished.

 

[MP2011]

Till the time this prima donna culture is thriving in Indian cricket, it won't realize its full potential.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Pathetic losers. Gambir should be ashamed of himself for allowing these bozos to play. Pick on merit.

Not easy to drop players like Kohli and Rohit.

 

[kron]

India might actually lose this lmao.
That's why you need to respect your opponents.

 

[MP2011]

Kohli is finished.

he has been finished for over 4 years now.

 

[Dios]

India dropped Sarfaraz for Rahul and now they are hiding him.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Coolie is finished.

He was finished a year ago in all formats. He is living off of his reputation.

 

[kron]

Till the time this prima donna culture is thriving in Indian cricket, it won't realize its full potential.

Will never go away

 

[Devadwal]

Lets not judge the player based on just one inning .this is start for home session so wait for atleast 3 Test matches

 

[kron]

I dont care actually. If they are not going to pick on merit then why should we all care. Just watch for tamasha

 

[kron]

Lets not judge the player based on just one inning .this is start for home session so wait for atleast 3 Test matches

Bro he averages 28 in the last 4 years. That is beyond expiry date.

 

[Champ_Pal]

India dropped Sarfaraz for Rahul and now they are hiding him.

You don’t want to upset Sunil Shetty’s damaad.

 

[BouncerGuy]

You have to accept that Gill is nothing in Red ball cricket.

 

[MP2011]

Bro he averages 28 in the last 4 years. That is beyond expiry date.

No one else would have survived with these kind of stats over such a long period of time, not even Tendulkar. But chokehold of Kohli on Indian cricket is something else, almost mafia like.

 

[Unbiased-Fan]

India in all sorts of trouble.
What will be a good 1st innings score from here?

 

[MANU ROY]

Rana boy wasting his energy by bowling short

 

[Devadwal]

You have to accept that Gill is nothing in Red ball cricket.

Nah it was bad luck .ball was very bad .

 

[kron]

You have to accept that Gill is nothing in Red ball cricket.

Finished. I don't think he should even play in aus. He is a joke in tests. Only odi suits him.
Maybe he can play bounce in aus not sure. But definitely not for spin or swing.

 

[Banda298]

Would be fun to see India lose so that these bloated fat ( Rohit ) , overpaid ( Kohli) , models ( Gill ) , and all time greatest nalley ( Bkl rahul) get dumped permanently from Indian cricket

These 4 have have ensured India has lost more matches lost in tests esp than won. it bcoz of **** shows like them they need to carry extra batting allrounders than ace bowlers

 

[kron]

Bangaldesh is very capable of beating SA at their home.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Lets not judge the player based on just one inning .this is start for home session so wait for atleast 3 Test matches

KL Rahul just wiped off some happy tears rolling down his chin.

 

[Unbiased-Fan]

People here being too harsh on KL Rahul.
Amazing Century loading for him.......

 

[Devadwal]

Finished. I don't think he should even play in aus. He is a joke in tests. Only odi suits him.
Maybe he can play bounce in aus not sure. But definitely not for spin or swing.

Gill last test series against England was very good .

 

[jnaveen1980]

This is a good bowling attack for BD. They just need to add one more seamer when they tour SENA they can surprise teams like Shamar Joseph did against Australia.

 

[MANU ROY]

Bangaldesh is very capable of beating SA at their home.

They beat Australia and England almost beat Ind

 

[Champ_Pal]

India in all sorts of trouble.
What will be a good 1st innings score from here?

200 if the conditions don’t change much.
I am afraid the pitch will dry up after lunch. Will be a good surface to bat then.

 

[jnaveen1980]

This is precisely why everyone was asked to play Duleep Trophy as India unusually had a long break. Only Jaiswal, Pant, Rahul played.

 

[Devadwal]

Guys this is test cricket .yes we are in trouble but still lots of cricket to be played.

Have some patience yar .

 

[jnaveen1980]

200 if the conditions don’t change much.

INdia is likely to do better in the 2nd dig as the conditions won't be the same. We have seen similar conditions many times. First day overly helpful. Remember Steyn knocked us over for 76 runs. Then pitch became a belter. India just could not catch up.

 

[MANU ROY]

This is precisely why everyone was asked to play Duleep Trophy as India unusually had a long break. Only Jaiswal, Pant, Rahul played.

Gill played one match

 

[jnaveen1980]

Guys this is test cricket .yes we are in trouble but still lots of cricket to be played.

Have some patience yar .

Don't deny that. Not the first time India has lost a session badly at home.

 

[Vikram1989]

Not easy to drop players like Kohli and Rohit.

Yeah but it's the question of team or washed up superstars with pr army

 

[Champ_Pal]

Don't deny that. Not the first time India has lost a session badly at home.

Our main batsmen Ash and Jaddu are yet to bat

 

[Champ_Pal]

Yeah but it's the question of team or washed up superstars with pr army

It took 6 years for India to get rid of Dhoni. Kohli will also take about the same time.

 

[Ahmed216]

Now Pant and Jazball will teach some lessons to these overexcited Bengalis.

 

[Devadwal]

Don't deny that. Not the first time India has lost a session badly at home.

Yea. Sometimes i like these situations .

Winning the match on difficult situation is more pleasant things then one sided game at Home.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Now Pant and Jazball will teach some lessons to these overexcited Bengalis.

They will score at good clip for as long as they can stay at the crease. No tuk tuk.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Good carry, plenty of movement. This guy is definitely Bhuvaneswar clone.

 

[Devadwal]

Now Pant and Jazball will teach some lessons to these overexcited Bengalis.

Bangladesh is playing good cricket so they deserve the credit .

BD pacers improve a lot recently compared to other teams .

 

[Ahmed216]

Good carry, plenty of movement. This guy is definitely Bhuvaneswar clone.

This guy Hasan moves it both in the air and off the seam. Quite a handful in helpful conditions

 

[Devadwal]

Why they are taking risky single .

 

[jnaveen1980]

Why they are taking risky single .

Pant is creating chaos. Jaiswal is usually level headed.

 

[jnaveen1980]

When is Pant going to play reverse sweep against a seamer?

 

[Champ_Pal]

This guy Hasan moves it both in the air and off the seam. Quite a handful in helpful conditions

No wonder Pakistan lost to BD.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Nahid is bowling a touch short on this pitch. HE should pitch further up to induce edge.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Why they are taking risky single .

To tire the fielders by making them run.

 

[Devadwal]

When is Pant going to play reverse sweep against a seamer?

Only if he can score a hundred .

 

[Devadwal]

Long spell for Hasan
