@rallynate Unless Americans wake up and come out of the democrats & republicans delusion and vote for a new party, this whole chaos would continue.
@KukretiShobhit@CricketopiaCom Dhoni’s last international game was on July 10, 2019 and he announced retirement on August 15, 2020.
Ashwin’s father gave a tv interview saying Ashwin wanted to play few more years but BCCI pressured his son to retire.
@Us3rChang3d@AadhilSiddhique Even at the age of 40 ECB made sure Jimmy Anderson passed the fitness test before every Test and Ashes series. They didn’t give him a pass because of his records or reputation. No one is above the law or game of cricket. Simply as that…!
@KukretiShobhit@CricketopiaCom Can you name any Indian cricketer who has announced retirement when he was at his peak, without any pressure from BBCI, Public, etc. Or at-least any who had a farewell match after Sachin.
Before 2015 SLC players had a very low record of injuries overall, even when playing franchise cricket around the world. Also SLC had strict set of regulations on fitness levels and conducted many fitness tests for players before every series/tournmenents. This culture solely deteriorated over time when he started failing these tests due to his unhealthy eating habits (drinking).
Hence, started rebelling with SLC when this was pointed out and he refused to improve his fitness. Over the period youngsters started getting influenced by him they also eventually started to disregard the fitness levels. Since then you can see many SLC players with a belly peeking out. Eventually leading to players getting injured easily these days.
