@Tejasvi_Surya This is silly! Congress was relegated to opposition for a reason. BJP is in power for 17 years of modern history (12 current + 5 under ABV), blaming Congress is just whataboutery. Stop deflecting & focus on holding power accountable.
@nanuramu If we're playing the 'if not for' game, Federer would've been sitting on 40+ Slams if Nadal hadn't turned Roland Garros into his backyard and Djokovic hadn't made it his life's mission to erase every Federer record. 😄
@dhume@omarali50 Hurdle to this argument is that using Islam as the state’s sole foundational force demanded strict theological adherence. This allowed the military to weaponize One God, all else forbidden to brainwash citizens into unproductive hatred rather than pursuing progressive liberalism.
@nanuramu S. Janaki sang 48k+ songs across Indian languages, including Hindi, with unmatched mastery. Yet Hindi excellence is called "national" while South Indian legends are dismissed as "regional." That's linguistic chauvinism, not unity. Janaki Amma deserved the Bharat Ratna decades ago
@hvgoenka Horses for courses. India need to play the conditions. All batters selected are destructive flat track specialists. Dont think they have the gake for moving ball. Gill, Rahul, Sai should have been the top 3 with Pant as WK in these conditions.
@TVMohandasPai@krishnabgowda Instead of dissing, why not suggest corporate governance strategies to tackle bureaucracy in the city you care about? For someone of your reach, sourcing world-class models for accountability and chain-of-command structures should be easy. Let’s build, not just critique.
@DeafMango What's next, a parliamentary inquiry into Stokes’ bedtime routine? How dare Rob Key not personally tuck the players in and have Baz sing them a lullaby. Absolute dereliction of duty. 🙄
@nanuramu Vaibhav Suryavanshi belongs with the best in the business, not playing Plate-level Ranji cricket. Elite talent needs to be fast-tracked to the national setup to truly hone their skills. Holding him back hurts his growth and India's search for the next generation of greats.
@nanuramu From GRV, Prasanna, Chandra & Kirmani to Kumble, Dravid, Srinath, Joshi & Prasad to Rahul, Mayank & Devdutt, KA’s cricket legacy is unmatched. Yet none of these legends have a voice in the new stadium site. A remote border location isn’t vision, it’s a joke. Fans deserve better!
@DKShivakumar Why aim for 2nd largest when Bengaluru has always set global benchmarks? A city that defines innovation, passion and sporting legacy shouldn’t settle for 2nd best! Build the world’s largest, world-class stadium. Make statement that matches city’s stature. Think big. Lead bigger
@AussiesArmy Test cricket is an acquired taste for the purists, but T20 is pure entertainment, easy for any casual viewer to dive into. While the formats differ, one thing remains certain: for a player, Test cricket is still the ultimate pinnacle of the game.
@CricketopiaCom Localized compliments often miss the mark in global sports. While Solanki represents a more modern sensitivity, Bhogle’s insistence on these cultural tropes feels increasingly unprofessional and dated. Sports broadcasting needs to keep pace with the times & so do the commentators
@joybhattacharj Sour grapes! The IPL commentary setup is abysmal and clueless; Ian Bishop is the saving grace in an otherwise mediocre broadcast. The BCCI clearly doesn't prioritize the viewer experience. The sports-starved Indian middle class has been tolerating this nonsense for far too long.
@TheAtulMishra Why target KGF & Pushpa? If we’re talking physics defying stunts, RRR & Baahubali are in the same boat. RGV is a total loose cannon, he praised KGF 2 to the skies when it dropped! + let’s not forget Kantara; it proved you can have massive pan India success with good storytelling.
@TheBarmyArmy Tony Greiig for all time. He made the game watchable. Ian & Richie from Aus, Ian smith from NZ, Michael and Naseer from England. Ian Bishop for current
@KrishnaAnand_ Totally agree. Its a mere gujju business model. Sports and results are just by products, the objective is to generate revenue to stake holders. Which is happening frequently. If cimmon sense prevailed, Chennai, Bangalore, Kolkata and Mumbai would be the finals venues on rotation.
@ajarrodkimber Hey Jarrod, is it just me, or is Varun Chakravarthy the clear frontrunner for worst fielder in the tournament? Toss in Abhishek as the worst catcher and India starts looking like the weakest fielding unit overall. What are your thoughts?
