  1. @kaushal_sumaria Obv not...but yes, a lot of them!
  2. Must laud @westindies for providing real-time updates of Ind-A vs WI-A game. Very vivid description of the match! Well done.
  3. Earlier in the day I'd tweeted about meaningless bilateral series', these 2 match T20 series' also fall in the same bracket. What's d point?
  4. @asimhot share the riches with other boards and find a window.
  5. @asimhot yes. Nowhere did Ian say that IPL is bad...T20 leagues are a reality...no running away from them.
  6. @ritz1401 Not right now...but should be available by August.
  7. A race to break into the India Test XI espncricinfo.com/india/content/… Who do you think is likely to make it and, more importantly, cement his place?
  8. RT @sanjaymanjrekar: A one sided test finishes in 3 days..while a one sided ODI generally goes the full distance ... m.tmi.me/r1Jwa
  9. @rk_neo tx, mate. Will read and reveet in the evening.
  10. @karthickrajhero good luck :) God bless.
  11. @Slbry bro, a player will also feel the hurt of losing if there's enough time for him to feel bad. If there's a clutter, it doesn't hurt!
  12. @Sam_rth Agree to disagree...I think 50 overs cricket is struggling to remain relevant.
  13. @BaburYaqub I agree. They are even more meaningless...one-off or two T20s do more harm than good.
  14. @Slbry @navneet_ic Context is for the people watching cricket...don't remember people filling the stadia in home series against Eng.
  15. @Slbry What's the context in a 7 match ODI series against Austraila except making money? What's the contest in 5 match ODI series vs B'desh?
  16. I'm a purist at heart and completely adore Test cricket. It's the 50 overs format that is struggling to keep up with the times, IMHO.
  17. We may like or hate d T20 leagues but that's d present &, more importantly, d future of cricket. Finding a window is imperative to co-exist!
  18. @rakesh_malik I like Idli-dosa over Paranthas :)
  19. Meaningless bilateral ODI series' have to go. International cricket without context & contest is the biggest threat to International cricket
