The Arab nations just need one world class athlete to win a gold. If I am a national of Bahrain, do u think I am jumping up and down with Joy. Indian athletes should not complain too much about this. In india athletes, get govt jibs and lot more benefits once they make it to certain stage. They are...

Jadeja is basically useless at 8, needs time to settle.if he gets 1-2 opportunities that late it will compound the problem. If kohli is at other end, send him at 3 down. With Kohli on other end, he may be better at rotating strike. With all other batters, he will typically take way long to settle.

Considering that T20 batting is almost identical and sample for Sai Kishore smaller, does not hurt to use List A to extrapolate If the opponents don’t have lefties, drop Washington… and let Rinku/Tilak bowl some overs. Avesh can definitely bowl at death.. not sure about Akash deep. Is Shahbaz ahamad...

But then we are playing on a slow track. Is their batting almost 10 runs worse? Sai Kishore has average of 19 in listA with SR of 19. Wondering if it is just a case of more not outs for Arshdeep. Arshdeep played 20 innings and has 57 runs with SR of 73 , while Sai played 10 innings and has 29 runs a...

Kohli bowled the last over in 2016 T20 semifinals . Wondering why he is not bowling . Wondering becoming captain played a part?

^^^ Good question. Has any decathlete also taken part in another medal event and won one, at Asiads and Olympics? It would be awfully difficult, I would think. Jackie Joyner Kersee won a gold medal in long jump and hepathlon in 1988 Olympics Mary Rand did it in 1964 Olympics with Gold , Silver and ...

Does this count?

If u choose Akash deep, u don’t need three pacers. Drop Arshdeep and go with Bishnoi. He has been bowling much better lately.

U need to be an athletes extraordinaire to do that. Granted Dr athletes are like that, but have there been any decathlete who has done that?

^^^ Thread started. There may be other posts from the past in some threads that can be moved here. I wish we had strong inter-college rivalries and fanfare in India, like in the US. If any of you have things to post from India or elsewhere, spewing hatred on your rival colleges, post away! (all in ...

Rest of india winning comfortably. Mayank and Sai batted decently in second innings. Once Sai got out , ROi folded for less than 45 runs.

Sarfaraz , Yash Dhull , Pujara all failed . Mayank needs to be in Indian team in Indian pitches. Hope sanity prevails

With both their warm up game’s abandoned, india will go without much batting practice for Jadeja Yuvraj cane into last World Cup out of form, hopefully history repeats and that is our only hope to have some semblance of chance. Hope team mgmt plays him up the order. There is no reason for Hardik to ...

Tripathi and Singh are the other batsman. Our bowling concerns me lot more. If Sundar cannot bowl 3-4 overs, there is no reason for him to be in team

None of our second string pace bowlers have taken the next step

Did Sundar get injured again? Why did he bowl just one over?

Yes, just saw that and it is a real surprise. Have to see if it is our first medal in Canoeing. Canoeing made its Asian Games debut in 1990. Indian canoeing athletes have won one medal at the continental meet, courtesy of Johnny Rommel and Siji Kumar Sadanandan's bronze in the men's C2 1000m event ...
