What's new

India (385/9) complete a 3-0 whitewash by defeating New Zealand (295) by 90 runs in the 3rd ODI

Ishasn bats like a hack.. can't rotate either.. wondering how he scored 200 against BD!
 
Tickner is finally giving some returns.
Him and Shipley looked totally pedestrian first 2 matches.
 
Ishan looks really out of depth in the middle order.
 
370 should be the target. If they have wickets in hand, they can tee off in the last 5 and look for 400. No need to risk now.
 
Ishan looking clueless. Don't we have any left handers who can hit SLAs out of the attack? Even Pant doesn't seem to have that ability.
 
Kishan is in "don't want to get out"mode. He wants to get set first before unleashing. But should rotate strike
 
Kishan in the middle order has no idea how to construct the innings. He is struggling to rotate strike and in the end running himself out.
 
And that should be the end of this hack in Indian team. He is in the test squad against Aus, good dear

He can play normal cricket. But problem is he gets into selfish mode at times like this. You have to keep rotating strike. Middle order batting is an art. Iyer has mastered it.
 
There is no vacancy at the top.

Ishan doesn't fit in middle order.
 
I don't mind SKY taking time. He can be destructive in the lat 5 overs. He can score 80 runs in the last 5 overs.
 
It also tells you what kind of form Gill is in. He plays almost every kind of length with ridiculous ease
 
This combination of Pandya coming in at 6 and Sundar at 7 will finish off India. Not a single batter in the country who can bowl Bracewell like off spin. Ruins batting depth completely.
 
Rubbish batting lineup . NZ can get 10 over from bracewell and Mitchell. Their balance is so much better
 
ODIs are a different kettle of fish. T20 hacks are just not cut out for it. Give me KL and Iyer anytime
 
THis is buffet bowling from NZ. SKY faced far better bowling in far difficult conditions. But his shot selection let himself down.
 
It is impossible for Gill to bat all 50 overs every time. Idiots. They don't take responsibility at all in the middle.
 
And we have selected these jokers, Ishan and Sky in our test team over Sarfaraz.

Chetan Sharma and BCCI are fraud.
 
Basically, our LoI cricket is replete with hacks and overrated cricketers.
 
Pandya's batting has completely gone to dogs.

May be IPL fame went to his head.
 
Either one of Gill and Sharma should have doubled up here

Sharma broke the momentum for his hundred
 
India needs this situation in dead rubbers. Imagine this happening in real world cup match.
This will happen with alarming regularity against better bowling attacks even in non WC games because our team is basically pedestrian.

Ferguson who conceded 22 runs in 1 over has now conceded 19 runs in his other 7 overs.

Its okay. More the middle order get exposed like is the better. ANyway in recent times Shreyas Iyer has been the pillar for India. Once he is back this charade will stop.
 
Tiny ground ,reminds me of the ground where pakistan national odi cup was played. No boundaries should be less than 70 meters.

so that leaves about half the grounds in NZ out of your parameters? Auckland eden park is actually a rugby ground with probably the shortest square boundaries, hamilton is so small ground so is Mclean park, napier. i still feel this ground is decent sized
 
Apart from Gill, shreyas cant trust anyone in this INDIAN TEAM. All are hacks. In WC For all Opposition team ,simple formula is get gill out early and match is in your bag.
 
We have to play an extra batsman who can bowl part time off spin. How the hell is it possible that we don't have such cricketers anymore? Washi and Pandya cannot play together. If he plays, Pandya has to bat at 7
 
Sundar hasn't grabbed the chances he got which were far and few not so long ago.
 
India had Kohli (inform), Yuvraj, Dhoni, Raina, Jadeja

Now

Out of form Kohli, Kishan, Half boili Pandya, Sundar

it is not the number that matters. it is the quality, ability to play in the middle overs and finish the game. We lack both MO players and finishers.
 
What a poor batting line-up we have with these 2 hacks wasting deliveries in last 5 overs.
 
India has to pick proper middle order batsmen from domestic. This conversion of openers into MO batsmen is a disaster.
 
Fact is we donot have a LH finishers like Yuvi or raina to hit the bowlers off their lengths. ...no one with the x factor. I dread to fear this is where the WC will be decided....Hardik would be so lethal if someone like yuvi would be with him....thats where i feel Rishabh if he could develop or even ishan....can lend us the X factor
 
Lol, who calls Pandya an all rounder? He can't bat and can't bowl.
