Govardhan: "@Romesh, Despite having 2 allrounders in Washi and NKR, if we play 4 perfect bowlers from 8-11, we are going back to square one. All 4 bowlers cannot bat and we end up with a extra long tail (which has been the single most reason for overseas failures). "
Adarsh: "Regarding Shami's non-selection, I'm hoping that it is a masterplan by the Indian selectors to preserve him for the 2027 ODI WC." - Sigh...
Sharafuddin being attended to by the physio. Went down in the slip cordon...
Jashan: "Abhijato: You missed my point. Yes, DDP's numbers are too good, even better when you switch formats and see list A stats. But my hypothetical question is whether he'd got even fraction of the attention had he not played or performed in the IPL? If he had an IPL like, say Auqib Nabi or Rishabh Pant."

Romesh: "my main concern would be the development of washi and nkr into perfect 5th bowling allrounders that can give jadeja's output at no 7. with that, india can play jurel at 6 and 4 of their best bowlers, regardless of the conditions from 8-11"
ashish: "As big a supporter of Shami i am, i think his days are done for test side. The injuries did not help him. That aus or SA series should have been his to play but he never fully recovered to be fit."
