Re: India A Series ....
All but Padikkal and Jain fail to be bundled out for 192. Our tail in any form of cricket is a joke. Arshdeep Singh—a national team player—is a fine example of this futility. Now, he will leak runs like crazy while bowling is my guess.

Re: India A Series ....
Well indian team mgmt is very smart. They released Avesh Khan to play for his state side, but should he not have been released to play for Indian A team. Did they need till day of selection to know that Avesh will not be part of playing 11.
Arshdeep, Yash Dayal are all white ball cricketers, who are still given priority over domestic Ranji performers. Chintan Gaja, Nagaswalla are all better performers who appear to have no pathway into this team, because they don’t play IPL.constant shuffling of the indian A team just shows that the selectors have no clue

Re: India A Series ....
Rinku has scored ducks in both games. His first-class average, and spectacular abilities in white-ball cricket, seem to be useless in the face of top-quality international red ball bowlers.
The other major failure in this series has been skipper Abhimanyu Easwaran. His poor starts have often let the team down, especially when batting first.

Re: India A Series ....
Rinku will figure it out. Everyone scores two consecutive zeros at some point in their career I suppose. We'll see.

Re: India A Series ....
Akash Deep is turning out to be really good. He should get a look in Indian team ahead of Thakur.
India blues is showing lot more bounce back. They bundle English out for 199 after lions started day at 98/2.
In response, they are 148-3 with Sai unbeaten at 54 off 140+ deliveries. Very interesting that he is showing lot of intent to play r this style. Still do not think he is good, but would happily be proved to be wrong.
Eashwaran India hopes may be over after this tour and may not even play in A team.
I agree with Prasen, Rinku will be better. He needs to show up tmw.

Re: India A Series ....
India blues scored 409 runs in second innings highlighted by century from Sai. Rinku Singh played a brief came 38 off 25 and Kumar Kushagra 40 off 40.. sarang Jain has been the best player scoring 60+ to go with his first innings performance.
English lions have lost two wickets and both to Saransh. I did not see Saransh Jain doing this well

Re: India A Series ....
I think this is a great new word that will become standard in the future. Words contract based on use etc. and words like "Furthermore", "Wherewithal" etc. have become words. I think "isnover" has great promise and is in the same lines. It may take a few hundred years though.
