Is anyone talking about this gross indiscipline Indian team has shown by reaching late for the match...???
Team was suppose to reach 1hr to 1.30mins before the match right...
Now according to Graeme Swann team hotel was 30mins away from the stadium
1.What Time did the team leave hotel???
2. How long they were stuck in the jam
3. If indian team had left hotel 1hr30mins to 1hr before the match team would have reached on time
4. My reading is team left only 30mins before the toss and decided they dont need to do any warm-ups and straight go for the toss in the process they probably got stuck in traffic which also must be the spectators and got delayed by less than 10mins beacuse we saw them walking in at 6.36pm into the stadium.
It clearly shows they didnt leave on time and they had this huge casual attitude and neither they followed the process of warming up properly. This should not be taken lightly. No professional team behaves like this. There should be penalties on all the players and heavy penalties on Captain and the Coach. Unfortunately this gross indiscipline is ignored as if nothing happened... Indian team delayed an international match by 45mins...England should have got an walkover. There must be a code of conduct in the ICC rules book.
India has travelled to england for ages but never got stuck in traffic...I never got stuck in traffic as a reporter covering matches in England and Southampton too @BCCI@ICC

King Kohli Returns in Just 2 days...
Amidst the chatter around Satluj, and the pros and cons, I can tell you the khauff we lived under from 1980 onwards. Punjab bled so much that it could never regain its glory. Ever.
Varun Chakaravarthy has a Grade 2 hamstring injury. Will be a long road back to the team now. The almost empty cupboard of wrist spinners forces management to go back to Ravi Bishnoi again.
About time Kuldeep Yadav gets a CONSISTENT RUN. You need his experience.

🚨 Outcomes of INDIA vs ENGLAND Series 👀
- Abhishek Sharma is a proper Blind Slogger guy never became a Match winning player
- Shreyas Iyer is an overrated T20 captain because of one fluke IPL season
- Gautam Gambhir is the most Fruad Coach who ruined Both Sanju & Vaibhav's career
- Prasidh Krishna & Tilak Verma is the biggest liability on Indian team
- We won The T20 World Cup because of Jasprit Bumrah & Sanju Samson
- Prince Yadav is a very Potential Bowler for T20 cricket
India will suffer as long as we carry average or poor fielders in the team, especially T20s. Catches were dropped by the dozens in IPL but we just shrugged it off. And it’s getting exposed in international cricket.
Fielders are too slow in the outfield. Some don’t have a good throwing arm. Some bring back the good old India-gate or Mori-gate horror story.
This is 2026. We were a much better fielding side even 10-12 years ago when no lame fielder was carried
Few months ago, while we were in Krabi islands, we went for a boat ride, to see nearby islands. Kids were onboard too. Then the speedboat started, the water was a bit rough, and it was one of the most terrifying experiences. Forget enjoying it, we were praying it to stop. It felt one of the kids could get thrown overboard any moment.
It’s usually advertised as a family thing, but it’s not for the faint hearted. During the monsoons it gets even rougher. People don’t talk about it much, as they assume this thrill to be part of the experience they signed up for. But this is not tourism.
Seriously, this has to stop. I've now set GPT-5.6 from high to medium (not fast mode, of course), and I'm still burning through my rates at an insane rate. My 5 hours are almost gone -again.
I've already used up all three resets. OpenAI needs to work on its efficiency. This is the biggest bottleneck.
