This is precisely why I have always defended Surya, his tactics were almost always point on.

Also, Hardik and Bumrah? Simply irreplaceable especially on English conditions.

[Harsh @harshruprell]

#Portugal what a team of spineless footballers, literally passed the ball sideways for 90 minutes. I have taken more risk in betting on them, than they have in creating chances.

[Harsh @harshruprell]

I haven’t seen England play with such intensity ever before. Also as a Madrid fan, this style of play and position suits Bellingham so much. I think they can go really far in this tournament.

[Harsh @harshruprell]

This Portugal side will not only retire Ronaldo, they’ll make me take retirement as well as a spectator, if I continue watching this shit show

[Harsh @harshruprell]

Joao Neves so goodddddd! Love a midfielder that can score a header. Papa Perez do your thing pls!

[Harsh @harshruprell]

Raphinha in a Brazil shirt is the most mid player I have ever seen

38-year-old Tendulkar fielding in the deep.

He wasn’t a natural diver, but he had a powerful throwing arm and exceptional accuracy.

Humour so broke, laughing hysterically at this

Just a small anecdote of Sachin Tendulkar’s Irani Trophy debut on his birthday:

November 1989, Wankhede Stadium.
5 selectors sat in the stands with notebooks & doubts, watching a 16 year old boy try to force his way onto a plane to Pakistan. Sachin Tendulkar had already shone through the Ranji season, 583 runs showing he was ready. But the men in charge preferred patience. They wanted one more look.

Irani Trophy gave it to them. Rest of India against Delhi. Tendulkar made 39 in first innings. Promising, but not the hundred that would have made selection automatic. So the 2nd innings became an audition he could not afford to fail.

What happened next was less a cricket match & more a rescue mission. Tendulkar walked in at number 4. Scorecard around him read like a horror story. Not a single teammate managed to reach double figures after he arrived (in fact, no one crossed 6 runs). Wickets fell like dominoes. By the time 9th wicket went down, he was stranded in the 80s, the hundred slipping away with every departing batter.

Enter Gursharan Singh. Rest of India vice captain had fractured his finger in first innings, his right hand wrapped in plaster, his match effectively over. Then Raj Singh Dungarpur walked over & told him to pad up. Not to save the game, but to save the boy’s hundred.

Gursharan walked out one handed. Tendulkar, already heading back to the pavilion assuming the injured man would not bat, stopped in his tracks. Gursharan looked at him & said, “Tera hundred kar ke jayenge.”

Tendulkar smiled, took strike & told Gursharan he would handle Maninder Singh himself. They added 36 runs for last wicket & Sachin scored 103*.

A week later, he was on a flight to Karachi. Selectors had seen enough. Sometimes greatness needs a century. Sometimes it needs a teammate with a broken finger willing to stand in the firing line so the story can continue.

@baldaati 😭😭😭😭😭😭

[Selfless⁴⁵ @SelflessCricket]

It’s crazy that this entire batch in the picture was groomed by Rohit Sharma at Mumbai Indians. 😭

[🇦🇷 @edgeandgonee]

Leaving aside how he speaks in press conferences or acts in public sometimes, if Surya wins the trophy tonight he’ll become a huge inspiration for everyone struggling in their 20s without early success to keep pushing and never give up.

[Cricketopia @CricketopiaCom]

This picture - both Indians, similar situations.

2022 – Virat Kohli had to clear bigger boundaries in a high-pressure contest against arch-rivals Pakistan, when almost everyone thought the game was over for India - except him.

2026 – Jasprit Bumrah had to restrict boundaries on a smaller ground where batters were hitting sixes for fun, in a tense semi-final when everyone expected him to deliver dot balls because he was India’s only hope.

India has produced some of the greatest cricketers of all time.

[Harsh @harshruprell]

What a crazy stat man

The biggest argument while calling Sachin the GOAT is that he was a batsman in a bowler’s era.

And I’m sure I’ll be using the fact that Bumrah was a bowler in a Batsman’s era while defending his GOAT status years down the line.

[The Cricket Panda @TheCricketPanda]

Bumrah in T20 World Cups

◉ 554 balls bowled
◎ 531 runs conceded

Conceding below run-a-ball while bowling 35% of these deliveries in last 5 overs of the innings 🐐
