अरे आप तो बड़े डरपोक निकले। पुराना ट्वीट डिलीट कर दिया। नए से स्पोर्ट्स जर्नलिस्ट शब्द हटा दिया। और इनके पंखे जाने क्या क्या बोल रहे थे। जैसे क्रांति ला देंगे।

He is braver than you believe, stronger than he appears, and smarter than you think. He is the one and only Shubman Gill.
This man has just defended a mere 168 on a smallish ground with his troops, as Siraj was breathing absolute fire, the 6-foot Rabada was hitting those lengths with surgical precision, and Jason Holder was dissecting batters with pinpoint accuracy. Congratulations GT

@TheCaptainR45 Pollard used to give off a real gangster vibe.

@itsmebruh1234 @grok I somewhat agree with you he transformed Indian cricket in several ways, and India was fortunate to have Dada leading the side at that time.
English

@offpacedelivery @grok Sourav Ganguly was the architect of Indian cricket’s resurgence after the 2000 crisis; without the cultural and competitive transformation he initiated, the Dhoni, Kohli, and Rohit eras may never have unfolded the way they did.
English

Hey @grok based on on field behaviour, player relationships, and how they backed their players, who was the better red ball captain.
Sourav Ganguly or Virat Kohli?

English

@SanjayGandhi41 @grok Yeah , a journalist actually asked this question once, and Kohli got pissed off over it
English

@offpacedelivery @grok Dada without a doubt Virat was a good captain but with Ravi Shastri he used to change the playing 11 every second game if I recall
English

You clearly seem to have a different agenda when it comes to GT and LSG. GT have already won a title and made another final, while LSG have reached the playoffs twice. If performance alone is the benchmark for sacking franchises, then RCB should’ve been the first to go, considering they won absolutely nothing in their first 17 years.
English

Look, 62% drop in viewership is just the beginning of the end if they don't fix this mess soon. The league has become so predictable and boring that people are finally switching off their TVs. First of all, they need to just sack LSG and GT already. These teams have zero soul and zero fan and they just dilute the whole competition. Go back to the original 8 teams so every single match actually feels like a high-stakes war again.
And for the love of god, please stop making these flat highway tracks where 250 is a normal score. It’s pathetic. We need real, bowler-friendly pitches like what we saw in that RCB vs MI game. That was easily the best match of the season because the bowlers actually had a say and every run mattered. While they are at it, push those boundaries back! Making 60-meter boundaries is basically turning professional cricket into a joke where even a mishit goes for six.
Then you have this Impact Player rule which is just a gimmick that’s killing the art of the all-rounder. It makes the game feel like a fake experiment rather than a sport. And please, just get Harsha Bhogle off the air. Nobody wants to hear him sit there and moan about strike rates for 24 hours straight like he's reading a math textbook. Give us some passion, give us some real cricket, and stop treating us like we just want to see mindless hitting. If they don't change this "masala" circus and bring back the balance between bat and ball, the IPL is going to lose its charm completely.

He flopped in 4 out of 6 innings, registered two half centuries, but one of them came against the relatively weaker bowling attack listed below. Apart from that, his only other noteworthy contribution was a brisk 24. And mind you this is domestic cricket, where players often don’t even get selected despite averaging 60, 70, or even 80

English

When Rishabh Pant bats in Test cricket on difficult tracks where the ball is seaming around or kicking up with extra bounce or even on turning tracks he looks like an absolute elite batsman. You watch him and think, what a player,what a talent
But the contrast in white-ball cricket is ridiculous. It is hard to believe it’s the same batter
I’ve rarely seen someone this inconsistent. In T20s, he often looks like he’s just blindly swinging without any real plan. And these franchises must be out of their minds to keep throwing that kind of money at him.

@OldMonkOfCric She’s a wonderful person who takes excellent care of her players

@Luck_7773 That's not an easy one but i know the answer let others guess that

@offpacedelivery Shit Captaincy! Right now his tactics has been exposed and he has been terrible. If you keep on leaking 200+ runs every other game, there is something wrong with your captaincy not with the bowlers
English

Where are all those people hiding now who were crediting Shreyas Iyer with absolutely everything when the team was winning?
Shreyas Iyer as captain has been consistently getting hammered for 200-plus totals by almost every team, with little to no visible ideas on how to take wickets. And this is someone who wants to captain Team India?
