West Indies Tour of India - September/November 2018

[zimrahil]

▪
Since 2016, India have scored eight scores of 600 or more, two more than the rest of the world put together

I am generalising somewhat but that is good way to hasten end of test cricket as most matches tend to be boring, especially for neutrals and won’t encourage new fans to watch tests

Depends on opposition as well but first innings scores around 300-350 generally makes for most exciting tests

Exactly. I think nothing should go beyond 550. And 400 above scores are fine.

 

[Bhumi]

Sorry no Mayank Agarwal for debut today

 

[abhi_jacko]

Why Shardul Thakur

How does he keep getting.a game. From what we have seen so far, he doesn't look international material at all

 

[zwarrior]

Surprised to see Rahul left out from the ODI squad.

WI might be 300 all out but we still can hit 500 or 600 in second innnings.ashwin 11/7/6/1

WI 57 for 2 after Kohli lost toss

Stuart Law need to understand the players about the difference between limited overs match and TEST MATCH. Awful start again.

Surprised to see Rahul left out from the ODI squad.

He is in the ODI squad.

This is the ODI squad: Virat Kohli (capt), Rohit Sharma (vc), Shikhar Dhawan, KL Rahul, Ambati Rayudu, Manish Pandey, MS Dhoni (wk), Rishabh Pant, Ravindra Jadeja, Yuzvendra Chahal, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammed Shami, Khaleel Ahmed, Shardul Thakur.

So the lower order syndrome strikes again. Even if the pitch is good to bat on, the fact that we struggle to bowl opposition sides out cheaply is disappointing, especially when we have them 6 or 7 down.

What will happen in australia? 'Cause Haze,M.Starc,Paine, Cummins all capable to score quick runs

If India fails to match up Windies score of 335/350 india might beaten unless they posted 600 in the first innings india one bowler short for most of 95 overs on day 1

Chase all set for 2nd test century vs india
India has to bats last.

Umesh 6 for 88 he is on Hattrick WI 311 all out

Kohli need rahul so they can talk during break about anything else than cricket

Mayank will go to Australia but his debut not easy till india get beaten 50% of the series

 

[Bhumi]

Shaw on 48 dropped in first slip off Warrican
68 for 1

(Same time Root also dropped off Akila on 59)

Ball turning

I think Rahul's problem in his mind : 12 innings his best was one hundred in eng.otherwise out either LBW or Bowled.

 

[Bhumi]

Shaw on 45 dropped in first slip by hope off Warrican, ball was hits to Hamilton shoulder than recoshet toward first slip.
68 for 1

I think Rahul's problem in his mind : 12 innings his best was one hundred in eng.otherwise out either LBW or Bowled.
0,4,11,33,37,8,0,4,146,0,4

Lucky 50 in 39 balls he should pick for 3/4 and 5 ODI team in place of Rahul

Lunch India 80 for 1

Pujara 9*
Shaw 52*

 

[Bhumi]

Shaw dismissed 53 ball 70: He still teen, he should know you can not hit turn and spin ball for 4 vs Warrican,whom he was dropped on 48,Not Lucky twice out for 70 but he press selector to have him includes for 3/4/5 ODI as he can also handy in that format

I wonder why bishoo still not bowl? Rahane must need to shaw something Outstanding today because his form poor during 2017/18.

 

[Bhumi]

Poor cricket by pujara,both at Rajkot (86) and here (41 ball 10) on OUT SIDE THE OFF STUMP.

Pujaras average was 170 at Hyderabad with 2/2 scores of 50 & 100, with 509 runs but he missed opportunity.
