Thanos causally just destroy an entire moon and throws the remnants on to everyone who he was fighting. And all because he was getting annoyed. Like that should've at least killed half of the people there especially the guardians

I know this match and series is something to forget for Indian cricket, but we really didn't appreciate Rishab Pant's 60(59) in the first innings and 64(57) in the second innings enough

I couldn't find downloadable highlights of this innings otherwise I would have posted that

With both Shreyas Iyer and Ishan Kishan busy with the Asian games, who do you think should be India's no. 4 for the West Indies ODI series?

My choice would be Ruturaj Gaikwad. He scored a century in his last ODI game vs SA that too at the no. 4 position only. Could give DDP a debut as well, he certainly deserves it after the perfomances he has put up in domestic list A matches.

Other option could be to bring in Sanju or Pant as the backup keeper but I'd still say that Rutu should be played above them

What do you guys think?

Indian Cricket fans don't deserve a player like Jasprit Bumrah

So today Australia won a match against the mighty Bangladesh by 51 runs and an innings and Mitchell Starc was awarded player of the match for his 10fer in the match and since then I've seen a huge surge in posts talking about how "Bumrah is nothing compared to Starc" and saying stuff like Chumrah aur Gumrah and it make me realise we don't deserve Bumrah

This is a guy who has the lowest bowling average in test cricket for any bowler with 200 wickets in test cricket history, has taken wickets in Starc's home ground at a better average and strike rate. But no he misses a few test matches due to fitness issues and suddenly he's a MI player who sometimes plays for India

It's funny how quickly people forge tthe impact this guy has had on the Indian Cricket team. We wouldn't have the last 2 T20 WCs without Bumrah, but months after he saved in the semi-finals vs Eng people are back to complaining about his "commitment" to the team

Forget batting innings, tell me your favorite bowling performance by an Indian bowler

I've seen so many discussions about batting innings on this sub but people rarely talk about their favorite bowling performances

In the images:
Siraj 6/21 (VS Sri Lanka, Asia Cup Final 2023)
Ashwin 2/15 (VS England, Champions Trophy Final 2013)
Zaheer Khan 2/60 (VS Sri Lanka, CWC Final 2011)
Mohammed Shami 7/57 (VS New Zealand, CWC Semi-Final 2023)
Jasprit Bumrah 5/30 and 3/42 (VS Australia, BGT 2024 1st test in Perth)

The recent ODI series made me appreciate this knock from Hardik even more

This is from Ind vs Aus 2025 Champions Trophy Semi-Final

Hardik cane in after Virat got out at 225/5 when India needed 40 runs in the last 7 overs. The track was slowish and Kohli was the only set batsmen we had there. Then came Hardik played slow for the inital deliveries and then smashed Zampa for two back to back sixes and then Ellis in the next iver before getting out for 28(24) while India now needing only 6 in 13 balls

We lacked this kind of lower order player in the England series who can come in and judge the situation accordingly and go beserk like Butler did for England

PS: Shoutout to KL’s knock in this match as well, loved how he finished the match with a six later

What changes do you guys think should be made for the final T20i tomorrow?

This is the first time in 12 years that India has lost a bilateral T20i series to England. While the series is gone we can at least win one match and save face in some way, so what do you think India should do for the final T20i?

My pick of 11:

Vaibhav: Should've given him a debut in the Ireland series and played with Sanju and Abhishek in this series but now that that boat has sailed, I think it's better to stick with him for one more game
Abhishek: I don't think this needs to be explained
Sanju: The literal POTT from the world cup, though he would be playing out of position I'd still have him come in the powerplay when one wicket falls (which let's be honest it will) to maximize the field restrictions
Ishan: He's the number 1 ranked T20i batsman and I feel he deserves some rope he's been fantastic since the NZ series to the IPL
Shreyas: He's the captain and honestly the most consistent batsman this series
Dube: 6th bowling option and also he's been clutch at crucial moments so again I believe he deserves a rope
Suryansh: We need another allrounder here but Axar's performance with the bat has been outright bad and I'd rather have Arshdeep bat before Washi so the only remaining option here is Shedge
Axar: Hasn't performed with the bat but still got a few tricks up his sleeve with the ball
Harshit: Jokes aside Harshit has actually been one of our better bowlers in the Ireland series and this series and he can be a very handy batsman
Arshdeep: Terrible person but he's been good with the ball.
Varun: Only worthwhile spinner we have certainly a better option than Bishnoi, he just needs to clear his mental block and work on his length a little and I feel he can go back to his great form again.

I'd have Sanju keep the wickets as I feel he's the better keeper and Ishan is the better fielder of the 2 and I'd have Dube bowl 1-2 overs in the 7-10 overs phase so Shreyas can work on his rotations a bit better rather than wasting 1 of Arshdeep's remaining 2 overs before the death.

Should India be concerned about Varun's form?

These are Varun's stats in T20is in 2026

Innings: 14
Wickets: 19
Average: 24.57
Economy: 9.34

The average might seem decent but compared to his performance in the previous 2 years it's not as good and his economy has taken quite the hit.

Varun is supposed to be the team's lead spinner, the mystery spinner, the wicket taker in the middle overs but lately it seems the mystery is vanishing. I know every mystery spinner has phases where they are figured out or planner better for but I feel Varun's issue is not just about being predictable. From what I noticed in the world cup Varun has been bowling short length quite a bit recently and every time he is attacked early on in his spell he just gets faster rather than trying to stick to his original plan.

Is Yashasvi Jaiswal the only potential 3-format player India has for the future?

Same as title

We had a pretty good run with Kohli and Rohit in the last decade playing all 3 formats (Although you could argue Rohit didn't reach his full potential in tests) and I realized what's next? Are we going forward with specialists in each format or do we have any other potention 3 format player. If you ask me there's only one option for a potential 3 format player in the future- Yashasvi Jaiswal

The selectors tried to fit Gill into the T20i team but it didn't work, I'm not convinced with Sai Sudharshan's technique for tests, Vaibhav hasn't even made his international debut yet, Jurel does not seem like a white ball prospect to me, all that leaves us with Jaiswal

His current stats are:

Tests
Innings: 54
Runs: 2535
Avg: 48.75
50s/100s: 13/7

ODIs
Innings: 6
Runs: 285
Avg: 71.25
50s/100s: 0/2

T20is
Innings: 22
Runs: 723
Avg: 36.15
50s/100s: 5/1

Those are some very impressive stats, the only issue I see is irregular chances in white ball. He has cemented his place in the test team but until Rohit stays he won't get chances in ODIs and we have other arguably better T20 options than him

What do you guys think?
