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

[Blackbradman]

Home ground for Both Ashwin and Jadeja

 

[MP2011]

I agree. India should move on from Rahul,Kohli from now on. Enough talent out there to replace them.

What an idiotic decision its been to play the likes of Kohli & Rahul. Both of them add nothing to the team, albatross around our necks.

Kohli drops a lot of catches too.

 

[Devadwal]

Jadeja please don't take risky single

 

[RidiculousMan]

India will win this game by an innings

 

[Dhakar Pola]

Home ground for Both Ashwin and Jadeja

what bad hosts, absolutely ruining the visitor's only chance of party

 

[Devadwal]

Bangladesh will win this game by an innings

Fixed

 

[KingLiton]

350 is on the cards

 

[jnaveen1980]

Ashwin is a good batsman to watch too. Very easy on eye.

 

[Mainul]

Shakib is not that old Shakib any more. Both with ball and bat he has lost his old touch. Bangladesh should find his replacement soon

 

[Blackbradman]

what bad hosts, absolutely ruining the visitor's only chance of party

 

[nish_mate]

Should have picked Sarfraz, quite like him and his fighter attitude.

Tamim in the commentary box is an upgrade on the usual BD commentator, him and Harsha should be shoved in a bin and lock up the bin.

 

[kron]

i think nahid if he fixes his action a bit by taking a longer stride and a more delayed release he can become even quicker.

 

[RidiculousMan]

Ashwin and Jadeja are the greatest things to have happened to Indian Test Cricket in the past decade or so

 

[kron]

if we picked axar i would be confident of 300 plus. without him maybe 270 max

 

[BouncerGuy]

Partnership: 80(89)

Bangladesh lost the plot here

 

[jnaveen1980]

He is the one who actually bats like Laxman not KL Rahul.

 

[kron]

why did india opt for 3 pacers? its not seaming that much

 

[nish_mate]

BCCI drop Kohli & Rahul please.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Issue is I have less faith in our batting

Shanto is utterly useless, I agree. Rest are OK to be honest.

 

[Local.Dada]

Who is that Bangladeshi commentator? He is saying Ashwin and Jadeja have never played anyone with pace of Nahid? Is he for real?

 

[kron]

watching nahid's release angle with his front foot bracing is scary to see. so much stress on his knee. wow

143 average pace nahid
135 for taskin
133 for mahmud

 

[nish_mate]

Shanto is utterly useless, I agree. Rest are OK to be honest.

What about their ex Captain from last tour? Mominul? Hes nothing great either...

 

[jnaveen1980]

Tamim as player is sharing some interesting info. Cummins looks quicker than Starc due to action.

They should use him as a strike bowler. Not load sharing bowler. If they do that he will have a short career. None of the express pacers should be used that way.

 

[kron]

lol steyn, johnson, morkel, cummins when he was express,
starc, olly stone when he was quick, mark wood

 

[Dhakar Pola]

What about their ex Captain from last tour? Mominul? Hes nothing great either...

he is ok in flat roads, not so much in any other kind of pitch

 

[Nikhil_cric]

What about their ex Captain from last tour? Mominul? Hes nothing great either...

He's better than Shanto at the very least. Nazmul Shanto as captain in all 3 formats is a very questionable decision by BCB.

Dude doesn't make any format on merit.

 

[kron]

nahid cant control new ball. he will go for runs

 

[Omer2002]

India are too good in every format..we have the worse tail then scotland and look at their lower orders

 

[Dhakar Pola]

Who is that Bangladeshi commentator? He is saying Ashwin and Jadeja have never played anyone with pace of Nahid? Is he for real?

BD never had a pace bowler who can hit 150, so I guess the commentator is seeing 170 instead of his 150s

Liton for captaincy for me.

 

[kron]

i remember rubel was hitting 145 to 149 at one point
taskin used to be even quicker prior to action change

but yes nahid on average is the quickest by far. he is top 5 in the world right now for average pace i would say. maybe top 3.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Liton for captaincy for me.

Ideally, he should.

 

[Aang_The_last_airbender]

Seems like Bangladesh is way behind over rate... they will lose WTC points

 

[Aang_The_last_airbender]

what bad hosts, absolutely ruining the visitor's only chance of party

Its Chennai welcome Anna !!

 

[kron]

dk is a moron lol. as usual calling a fast bowler a medium pacer. he just said nahid is a medium pacer.
this noob charlatan calls bumrah and shami the same too

 

[Local.Dada]

BD never had a pace bowler who can hit 150, so I guess the commentator is seeing 170 instead of his 150s

Nahid is a good bowler though. I think it was Tamim commentating. Usually a sensible guy based on his analysis with cricinfo, maybe a slip of tounge.

 

[Mainul]

To

To be honest I believe other bowlers are more effective than Shakib.

Shakib has lost his firm completely. And at this point of career i don't think he can regain it. If he fails with bat too in this test Bangladesh should take a bold decision to replace him with Taijul in 2nd test

 

[Local.Dada]

He has a legal case against him right? How is Bangladesh board allowing him to play?

 

[Mainul]

dk is a moron lol. as usual calling a fast bowler a medium pacer. he just said nahid is a medium pacer.

Front line commentators seems to have been kept in rest for this series. Is there Ravi in the box? Missing him

 

[Aang_The_last_airbender]

Shakib might seek asylum in India

 

[kron]

one of the best spinners of all time gets his 50. take a bow ash

probably 3 rd or 4th best spinner. in history

 

[Local.Dada]

Seems like Bangladesh is way behind over rate... they will lose WTC points

Not being arrogant but winning in India vs India in test will be their equivalent of winning the test championship. Dont think they are thinking that far ahead

 

[kron]

from what i heard its all false reports.

 

[kron]

when ash retires we will have some issues for a little bit but yea there is axar and a few others in the reserve.

 

[Aang_The_last_airbender]

Anyone listening to Haryanvi commentary??

 

[Local.Dada]

I like this Nahid. No showbaazi, runs in and bowls at 110%. Love that attitude.

 

[kron]

149 pace from nahid

 

[batandballbattle]

on a tougher pitch like this 300+ will be enough, match is slipping away fast for BD

 

[jnaveen1980]

when ash retires we will have some issues for a little bit but yea there is axar and a few others in the reserve.

Axar is a good batsman. But not in the league of Ashwin with bowling.

 

[Aang_The_last_airbender]

Not being arrogant but winning in India vs India in test will be their equivalent of winning the test championship. Dont think they are thinking that far ahead

yup but Bangaldesh might lose 10 points from today alone the way they are bowling.

 

[Local.Dada]

I enjoy watching Ashwin bat, very elegant.

 

[jnaveen1980]

If it were typical chennai heat Bangladesh players would have struggled massively.

 

[kron]

Axar is a good batsman. But not in the league of Ashwin with bowling.

we have kuldeep who is good but not in ash's class either at home

and also his batting is crap compared to ash

 

[nish_mate]

Front line commentators seems to have been kept in rest for this series. Is there Ravi in the box? Missing him

He is. There is Sunny G, DK, Ravi, Harsha,Tamim and one other BD commentator. Only one potentially missing is Sanju Majnu (but I think he is there) and maybe that old Indian spinner, Sivaram or something.

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Ashwin and Jadeja have taken this game away from Bangladesh

 

[kron]

If it were typical chennai heat Bangladesh players would have struggled massively.

typical chennai heat would be very difficult for all teams including aussies. aussies actually have very hot weather themselves.

 

[jnaveen1980]

we have kuldeep who is good but not in ash's class either at home

More importantly these two deliver at clutch moments.

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

No Murali Karthik right? He's insufferable to listen to

 

[Aang_The_last_airbender]

Nothing comes close to soul sucking weather of Chennai

 

[Devadwal]

They are not going to qualified for WTC final anyway so doesn't matter much if they lose some points.

 

[Local.Dada]

You get double bonanza of Athar Ali and Tamim instead.

 

[Local.Dada]

End of sept-Oct is not the worst time I beleive. I have visited Chennai a few times during winter times, weather is not too bad. Summer is a different story.

 

[Aang_The_last_airbender]

They are not going to qualified for WTC final anyway so doesn't matter much if they lose some points.

They should make changes to WTC to give relevance to all positions!

 

[jnaveen1980]

Rohit is going to go ballistic in the second innings if India gets a decent total now.

 

[nish_mate]

No Murali Karthik right? He's insufferable to listen to

Doesnt look like. I only flicked telly on for 20 mins, but looking online, this seems to be the list (TOI and Wisden), but I think they either missed out DK or swapped him with some1.

Looks like Sanju, Siva and Murali are missing- not a bad thing

 

[Banda298]

What a joke of a selection committee. Getting bullied by players lmao

Drop kl
Drop kohli
Drop Gill for non flat bouncy pitches.

Joke. What a joke.

drop Rohit also

 

[Mainul]

He has a legal case against him right? How is Bangladesh board allowing him to play?

BCB is doing the right thing. The case filed against him has no strong background.So they are rightly allowing Shakib to play and supporting him.

 

[Mainul]

He is. There is Sunny G, DK, Ravi, Harsha,Tamim and one other BD commentator. Only one potentially missing is Sanju Majnu (but I think he is there) and maybe that old Indian spinner, Sivaram or something.

Thats great.

 

[Rajdeep]

India should aim to score 450 and bat only once

 

[kron]

i know we will still dominate at home post ash and jaddu but i am concerned with backups.
we will compete and win away as we have very good high quality pacers. but spin cupboard is bare.
we may still win most games but i feel draws will be possible in india in the future once ash and jaddu bhai retire

 

[jnaveen1980]

As i suspected KL Rahul is getting bashed on social media and is trending

 

[kron]

India should aim to score 450 and bat only once

impossible to get 450. this is the last batting pair.
max 300 to 350

 

[Devadwal]

India should aim to score 450 and bat only once

 

[Local.Dada]

India should aim to score 450 and bat only once

This will go to 4th innings bro. Bangladesh has a good test batting line up for these conditons.

 

[kron]

drop rohit also

giving him a pass cause he atleast shows intent

 

[Local.Dada]

Ashwin experience against high quality TNPL attacks during off season helping him deal with the Bangladesh bowling line up

 

[Rajdeep]

impossible to get 450. this is the last batting pair.
max 300 to 350

It is minnows we are playing against.

Athar Ali Khan

Kumble and Ganguly are not bad. I'm surprised they are not there and Parthiv Patel is. Kumble's tone of voice can be a bit boring to listen to but he analyzes the game quite well.

 

[Local.Dada]

Just realized Ashwin is 38, will he get to 600 test wickets?
