Wait hang on…
India vs Australia 3rd ODI in an hour.
Hopefully they both don’t decide to turn this into a T20 like the last couple of games.

It was so bad I decided not to mention it…didn’t want to upset Ganpati.
What was funny was Australia blitzing through it in 11 overs lol
I think India are where we were at when Unai took over.
They know things need to change and new players are needed but it will take time.
They made an excellent start by sacking their entire selection committee after the last World Cup…loved that move. Exactly what I would done.
In the mean time we’ll get fantastic wins alongside complete blowouts like on Sunday.
Considering they host the biggest T20 tournament, their understanding of how to actually play the format astounds me.Quote:

Can’t be good letting everyone get valuable experience on your wickets while stopping any of the kids from breaking through.
Long process to sort out.
I'm not sure batting the 1st 10 overs at a snail's pace helps their cause eitherQuote:

It's actually working against their national white ball teams even though it makes the BCCI a fortune.
Australia won and now the top ranked ODI team.
:headwand:
More torture for Ireland today.
In their last ODI Bangladesh made them toil in the field as they wracked up 350 and then the heavens opened and Ireland didn’t get to bat.
Imagine how annoying that must’ve been. Dragged all over the pitch for 50 overs and you ain’t get a chance to have a swing yourself.
Not World Champions though are they :)Quote:
