Mohsin Naqvi knew India will refuse to take the Asia Cup Trophy moment he turns up at the India vs Lanka finals in Dubai last night. And he knew he will be hailed by Pakistani media as a hero for snatching yet another Trophy from India.
And Pakistan will forget their horror story on the England tour. Mohsin Naqvi the politician will cover up for the failures of Mohsin Naqvi the cricket administrator.
Damn good from Bangladesh and this reiterates the value of designated test centres.
The conditions in Darwin have caught the ausies by surprise. #AusvBan
You know, Gambhir was vice captain under Dhoni. And when Dhoni was injured or something, they didn’t make Gambhir captain. They kept him as vice captain under Sehwag.
Those days, selectors were clever.
Never seen a more confused Indian cricket team management. The handling of Vaibhav Sooryavanshi and Sanju Samson has been far from professional. One is a generational talent, another World Cup winner - they need to be given confidence not doubts in their minds.
I think it is imperative that the BCCI gives fans the reason why Sanju Samson isn't in the team to Zimbabwe. Communication is crucial because otherwise people will arrive at their own conclusion. Because surely he cannot be dropped. Surely not.
Don’t mind Iyer as captain, and SKY being dropped for form is fair too. But handing the captaincy to someone who wasn’t even part of the setup for 2 years makes no sense. Someone from the WC-winning core deserved the first shot. Don’t want another MI-type situation here.
