50-overs WCs T20 WCs Asia Cups CT IPL CL cricket in India Ban WI Oz SA Pak NZ SL reported on SRT 200, 200 test, 100 ton, MSD t20WC, Kohli BG, yuvi 6 6s
One of the best cricket pics... Anyone knows the name of the photographer. The batsman, the bowler, the catcher, the agony, the ecstacy...the captain's reaction
Just a BCCI thing. Kuldeep didn't play Test, didn't play Ranji. Now can't play any first class till June and is not a starter in IPL... How to kill a player
Streets will remember Rahane the captain who led india to test series win with net bowlers and scarred batting unit after 36 all out. Deserved more respect than many. Him and Pujara and Vijay need more respect
Bumrah since his India debut: 30 of 47 Tests, 72 of 125 ODIs, 60 of 136 T20Is

so here are my takeaways from IPL game at DY Patil Stadium. Will try and explain the economy and logic of cricket. Will star with water. So u are not allowed to carry water inside the stadium. A water bottle inside the stadium. plastic water bottle is a security threat 1/many
Greed and ego of one man in bcci is the reason behind empty stands at Narendra Modi. It wasn't rocket science to start the tournament from Bombay or Madras or Bangalore... places that love their cricket even on a working Thursday.. but then
Surya Kumar Yadav is such a calming influence on this team. He has spent years playing domestic cricket. Has been confused, both himself and for his Mumbai side at one point of time. But is a changed player now... if he comes gud, KL and Iyer both might have to sit out
Read this to what all can go wrong in just one tweet... Usha ran when no indian woman ran.Mary boxed when no indian woman boxed, Sindhu won when no Indian woman had to medals at 2 olys. And now Bhaker has done what no Indian had ever done. She is not bigger or smaller.
She is bigger than PT Usha
Mightier than Mary Kom
Bigger than PV Sindhu
A double Olympic medalist who is likely to score her third tomorrow.
Manu Bhaker should be a household name by now, absolutr star 🔥

Bcci has sent a clear signal to domestic first-class players. Don't bother about getting runs in Ranji Trophy. Two gud innings in IPL is fine to make it to Indian test team.
Ravi Shastri who was quite during match fixing, spot fixing, lalit modi saga, Chappel era... Has Tweeted about a player vs journalist fight... Politics understand kariye
If an IPL contract is seen as an respect to what Pujara has achieved as an cricket, I am sorry to say that that's being utterly disrespectful to a legend.
One of the biggest promise that Sourav Ganguly made when he became THE BOARD prez is that he will work for state level Central contracts. All the players got was babaji ka thullu. But of course journalists keep getting leaks
Cricket Australia just released a press release announcing ticket sales for its summer starting October and going all the way to Feb next year along with venues. Here
#BCCI
is hosting a World Cup and we don't know jack-shit about anything.
#ICC
Crocodile tears. When was the last time oz hosted Bangladesh, Zimbabwe, Afghanistan Ireland for tests or went to zim or played visitors to Afghan or Ireland who are test playing nations

SURELY the

if they had ANY teeth, should step in and manage this situation where sadly a nation is not selecting their best team for as
The recognition that R Ashwin has given to domestic giants Manhas and Bhatia as he celebrates his 100th test is a massive show of gratefulness from a legend.
Before we forget, the biggest undisclosed X in IPL is the closed envelope lying with supreme court with names of match fixers. If cricket writers in india have balls, disclose that X.

Men are allowed to have family and gfs on long away tours by the BCCI. Does the same policy apply to women cricketers too? They were on along tour to England and are now on one tour to Australia in middle of pandemic and quarantine.
India took DK to WC. Did not play him in semis. Groomed Harshal as a finisher in bowling. Didn't play him at all. Brought Chahal back as an attacking wicket taking leggie. Used him as waterboy.
Something new happening in Indian cricket. No one wants to coach or lead. They are being forced convinced to do that. Dravid was convinced to coach. Rohit is bein convinced to captain. Like he wanted to take arts but we convinced him to take science... Forced
Hope this win gives hockey players better deal from the federation than the 1998 Asian games win did. Hope this win gives them more money, more social respect.
India 360 runs behind. England still have 5 wickets. But broadcaster saying that India are back in the game. A reflection of of this team has done recently?
Kohli wud not have been able to play as he has been with Rohit's starts and Rohit wud not have been able to play as he has without knowing he has someone like Kohli to bat deep.
#RohithSharma
#Kohli
. Cricket is a pretty individual and selfish team sport unlike any.
I live Kohli's intensity and love for Test cricket. But were Dhoni, Kumble, Dravid or Ganguly any less intense or loved Test cricket any less? Maybe the dons of Indian cricket journalism and marketing can answer this for me...
No Kohli. No kl Rahul. No shami. Tough call on iyer. Not going back to Pujara. Four debutants. The future middle order. Resting Bumrah in middle of series when it was alive. First solo hit delivered by Rohit. Dravid and agarkar as coach and selector...
Ipl on. Great move. Ipl gone. Grt move. Women don't get games. Grt move. Women get test. Grt move. Women get contract. Grt move. Number of women players under contract reduced. Grt move. Yaar yeh journalist hain ya thali ke baingan?
He wont sell u the bottle as he is not allowed to. remember someone can throw this bootle and hurt a player. Mind u this player is some 50-100 meters aways and u will have to be a Neeraj Chopra to achieve that feat. Anyone at SAI reading this! call them for trials. 5/many
Roger Binny, one of the heroes of India's 1983 WC win, top wicket taker, is not wearing an Indian team jersey but someone called Jay Shah is and so is Shukla ji. Cringe
Bcci asking Saha to explain his comments on Dravid and Ganguly is a bit rich. It's officials keep leaking info to reporters on daily basis. And here is a player who was being honest about how he felt. But guess in this age of source journalism it's par for course... Bloody hell
To be brutally honest, Rahul Dravid's stint as Indian men's coach has brought zero results. Before he took over India's last ICC trophy had come in 2013. And as his contract gets over, the last ICC trophy that India won was in 2013. 1/2
Five changes expected after first Test on a tour where u had a month to plan. Two ofcourse forced. But once again team has no 8dea about their best XI. Happened in SA, England last time and also in OZ. Just amazing how bad this management is...
England commentators speak so less about KP while talking about former England batsmen. Good against pace, gud against spins. Runs all over the world in all three formats. Had all the shots
covid protocols mean that 50 % crowd is allowed. These protocols are meant for social distancing, masks, hand sanatisers. so how do the stadium authorities ensure these protocols. but shutting half the stadium and ensuring people are sitting nose to nose in the other. 11/many
now we know why BCCI fought so hard in court on the issue of not coming under RTI, this WC ticketing fiasco needs CBI inquiry but then ur right hand doesn't probe the left hand
reason why indian journalists don't write about the plight of Indian cricket fans for example at Pune is that they get free travel to stadium, free seats and free food. With this they can't q the authorities who mostly are nepo kids like at Pune too. Fear.
this is not meant to discourage people from comeing to watch live sports. Afterall wahst sports without fans. They make sports what it is. they make IPL a trillion dollar economy. Will things improve for them. NO.
U can have free water too! but for this u will have to go to the ground floor. and then walk all those floors up with a water glass in ur hand. I am sure the stadium builders wanted to take care of the cardio when they decided not to install lift. Fit India Movement! 6/many
IPL begins late September. that means team camps will begin from late August. atleast 200 players and support staff will be mobilised from all over the country and sent to UAE for that. but 30 Indian women couldn't be gathered for a camp and sent to England for a series
so that shud mean that water shud be easily available inside, free or paid. my seat was in the second tier, for perspective fourth or fifth floor of a residential building. I saw a vendor selling water for Rs 10 per glass and thought perfect, water sorted. 2/many
Why are doctors prescribing a medicine that is not available in the market
#Remdesivir
? People are paying 50k for one injection. And they need 6 of those per person.
If u trust the IPL organisers, an average Indian is capable of throwing an empty water bottle 50-100 meters and injure a player with it. What else cud be the reason of not selling water bottle inside the stadium. SAI shud call crickets fans for throw trials. Huge oly potential
but i realise that its gud that water supply is low. Becase if u drink water, u will have to pee. Now where to pee. The only urinals available is on the ground floor. So in that sense the organisers have made perfect planning. no water, no pee, no need to go down 5 floors 7/many
Ganguly has been a liar since his playing days. His journalist cronies, these days led by a doctor have helped him spread them. Kohli just proved his dilli credentials.
