I am no longer interested in Indian batting. I feel like Australia vs WI will offer a more balanced approach to test cricket.

When england comes onto bat the sad reality will be exposed with Indians running away chasing as usual.

Konstas and Steve Smith will score proper centuries not the rubbish we see on this phatta today

I saw on X a Steve Smith quote that Gill is his idol and and he is watching this innings to model his own batting strategy for the upcoming match.

Do you think it could be real? Journalist who delivered this scoop was from Uttar Pradesh.

Commisserations bro. However India is winning this series.

After the success of OP Sindoor last month, Indian cricket team has launched Operation Lagaan on England.

Lol you have a habit for cheering for the opposition instead. Best luck pal
 
The partnership is worth 95*

But you know 1 wicket here will bring a collapse
 
Washington Sundar vs Abdullah Shafique would be a great batting comparison thread.

I think Sundar has better technique than the duck master but would be nice to hear PP opinions. :inti

Please feel free to make the thread so we can debate this topic in a deserved manner.
 
England doing some banter with Gill. Trying to break his temperament. They don’t know Gill only thinks about Sara and nothing else
 
Atherton had to mention about England winning by an inning recently after Pakistan scoring 556 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Gill can become 50+ AVG player in next 2 year . seem like number 4 position is best suitable for him. :kp

Such a big mistake done by Kohli towards the end of his career by blocking No.4 (the most crucial batting position in tests) for way too long. If he wanted to be like Sachin he should have learnt to cope with his weaknesses (backfoot game, edging to slips) like Sachin kept updating himself... But his ego was too big, he had to wait till he got sick of himself! If he had moved to No.5 at proper time, we would have got rid of Rahane soon and then we would have groomed someone soon at No.3 also (in place of Pujara. Nair or someone...) Gill was forced to open in tests (I always wondered if he was suitable as an opener).

If Kohli had moved to No.5, probably he would be still playing in tests...

Rehem bhai,

We cannot call Donald Trump twice in two months for a face saving exit 🤣
 
England used to be my favourite country for watching test cricket.
But now they are preparing these dead pitches.
 
The pitch is a belter. Was Stokes drunk during the toss yesterday?
 
Bazball is bad for cricket if we are going to see more of these kind of pitches

Both gave adios bhai.both have split and unfollowed each other on social media.
 
Like I said from the beginning. Konstas is a prodigy. He was just nervous first innings.
 
So what's the plan for loser indian batting team? To play for draws?

Loser mentality, this happened ever since jaiswal entered the team.
 
If Shubman Gill gets 300, he is forever off my hit list.

Good 250. Ik its flat but even if must respect the innings.

Too bad the skinny legs butter fingers clown is useless
 
Adam Gilchrist is now just Adam.

There is only room for one Gilly in Cricket.
 
Gill on 259*

This is now in the realm of historic knocks. Flat pitch yes but score wise a gigantic effort this

Idc who you call, no one will save indians from my wrath

Why? What happened?
Actually don’t worry.


But what I will say is this. Pitch is ultra flat.

So bazzball will work here. Need to tire them out. Batting aggressive is important but also batting for time to wear them out.

England usually score better in second innings. So India need to set atleast 450 to chase in the second innings with 70 to 80 overs to get. Otherwise they are toast given its ultra flat pitches and short boundaries

Gill did well but again it is a very flat pitch.
 
Root produces a peach to dismiss Washy Washy.

Gill on 260*
 
Sundar would probably be less displeased seeing how that ball spun. Anyways decent knock

lol scared are those who first make big claims and then tag you and ask for mercy if their team lose....I don't do that but everyone knows who had done that after 1st Test :kp

India dropped 7 catches in first test
When you drop that many you deserve to lose
Hopefully we catch better this time.

Lol, im just messing around. Brother @Nikhil_cric called me the successor to Van Goh so I adopted the mantra.

I'm not gonna hurt anyone 🤣🤣. I'm harmless dw.

Konstas is greek
He will be found out soon.
He is a nothing player
Nothing special

And root gets a wicket
Click to expand...
Konstas with out any feet movement is looking like a clown. commies are roasting him for poor technique. He cant survive on a tough pitch or against tough opponents.

Gill should go for Lara's 400 record. That's the only way to give a slap to Bazzball

Won't happen. India wants to qualify for wtc. As much I dislike them, you have to give them credit on the fact that they eye trophies.

How does people rate Sohaib Bashir here?

:kp
Click to expand...
I don't rate him much. Though I think if ECB continue to play him. In 10 years time he will have 400+ wickets and will become something.

England really are dire in spin department.

You look genuinely hurt bro. Angrezo ne dhoka de diya

:asif
 
Akashdeep needs to hang around for a bit. Gill is calm for as long as he’s there.

Can’t trust Mohammad and Krishna coming in at 10 & 11 respectively
