Gambhirs favourtism cost India. Rana who played on KKR quota and Delhi quota was by far the worst bowler on show. Indian batsmen had no respite as all three Aussie quicks were threatening while bumrah had no support. Rana the T20 bowler, leaked a lot of runs and released a lot of pressure. Only Rana can go at that rate on that pitch. Should be dropped immediately and akashdeep who can bowl line and length should be included
Akashdeep would have been included and replaced for Rana itself in the 2nd test. But lemme tell u what happened, we all saw how trash Akashdeep (rcb lobby) bowled in pm xi match. He didnt find his line and length and only Bangladesh made him look good. 🤡. India couldhave added Mukesh Kumar who took a 6-fer but i think it is a bit of a stretch.
Dude do you know anything abt cricket, Harshit rana bowled unbelievably well on perth, he's got fast inswingers nd pacey bouncers nd rana haven't played any pink ball test in his career before nd it's hard to control pink ball swing if you haven't played any pink ball test,dude playing his second test match, same happened with aussies they got thrashed for 295 run loss so went after them saying aged bowling lineup now you guys are jumping after at debutant who put on a breathtaking performance on perth, Rana is an high quality fast bowler he'll take the learning nd his career graph will only go higher nd higher nd you dumb cricket fans please stay away from those bullshit opinions
I agree 100% Gambir kept Rituraj Gaikwad out,again because he has scores to settle with Dhoni. Gambir is toxic personifed. India deserves this tight slap
@sankalpm1030After Siraj he had the most control other than Siraj, also don’t forget what he did vs England on a flat bealter pitch. The fact is that in terms of ability, control and experience with the red ball Akashdeep is far better. But with white ball Rana is better than him. Akashdeep will be a better support to Bumrah and Siraj, like how Scott Boland was to Starc and Cummins.
We have a so weak batting line-up that we cannot even expect them to score 350+ consistently don't know how 180-200 have become a score where u can even fight for the match..
@@rammoorthydr2307 Indian selectors don’t have the guts to do that nor seniors have that self awareness to step away gracefully. Heights of double standards . Same guy said that we should move on from Rahane and Pujara but still wants to continue as non performing captain at 38
MISTER GAVASKAR PLEASE SPEAK THE TRUTH! INDIA LOST THIS 2ND TEST MATCH BECAUSE OF POOR HORRIBLE CHEAP UNACCEPTABLE BATING. BATSMEN FAILED RIGHT FROM 1ST INNINGS. TALENTED PLAYERS ARE KEPT OUT , PLAYERS ARE INCLUDED ON RECOMMENDATION. "POLITICS CANNOT HELP INDIA IN WINNING MATCHES"
Bcci should start introducing pink balls in ranji trophy. This will give good exposure next time when another india team travels to Australia , India team will know how to play pink ball under lights.
Nikhil- please do your homework. Bumrah was rested one game in the home series. You said he did not get a break. And here after first game, there was around 9 days break. And this 2nd test finished in 2 days.. India did not bowl 2nd innings.. now they have 6 days gap.. This question does not make sense
Gavaskar ... I respect him for his cricket achievements.... blundered by saying something like "India-Australia series will be a whitewash in India's favour". This has come to bite him !!😄
New Zealand white washed India without Kane Williamson under a new captain.. And remember no pink ball test match was played. Today much of Indian cricket is sold to the masses with an patriotic touch. Both the Indians players and Commentators are highly paid professionals who make us feel they are doing a favour to our country.
Sunny ji is very generous to Rohit Sharma. We have high regards for Rohit Sharma. No issues at all. He was Hitman. However, now he has no footwork or leg moments + he lacks test match temparament to stay calm and play a long innings by facing 150 to 200 balls + with Rohit's today's mindset he cannot play more than 5 overs + he has become lazy with his ageing issue + poor body reflex...with the above issues I am sure that Australian bowlers will get him out in less than 10 overs...and will make him to sit in the pavilion..and Viru the King will surely follow him and this will show an another ridiculous performance to the Indian team. Hence Ro"hit" should announce his retirement immediately or else his captaincy should be stripped off...this is consecutive 4th test match he is losing as a captain..why should we wait for his performance as youngsters are available
If Gavaskar, Harsha, DK, and people like them spoke the truth, the Indian team would not have been in this predicament. But they won't; they will say sweet nothings and move on. The only person with the spine is Manjrekar. He could be wrong, but at least he speaks his mind.
@ninadmishra207 Absolutely right. SG, DK and HB will always beat around the bush. KL, Kohli, Rohit,Gill and now Pant are failing 9 times out of 10. They failed in Chennai against BD as well. It is there for the whole world to see. But these commentators just want to be in business and are actually fooling themselves.
Anyone who thinks Rohit as opener would do wonders for him and the team is a moron honestly he is literally struggling at no 6 with the old ball too what made these guys beleive he will do better in the next matches.?
Im not sure why even most fans are sold big on Rohit in overseas tests. His lack of technique & weaknesses are glaring. He's a flat track bully. and everyone raising the point of 5 100s in a single worldcup gotta understand that cricket is more business than sport. limited overs pitches have been made flat tracks even in england, australia and Nz
This has been the 7th loss under rohit Gambhir combination and the 4th consecutive test loss.Rohit has been continuously getting a wrong selection in each and every match ,the field Placements has been pathetic,High time Virat and Rohit retire immediately.India will lose the next 3 tests 100% under Rohit Captaincy, winning even a single match will be massive
Rohit cannot bat against quality fast bowling on seaming tracks. His feet movement is sluggish. He should work on his fitness. You see him not diving in the slips when the ball is in the air. That speaks about his fitness levels. I remember Dravid diving behind Dhoni to take an unbelievable catch off Harbajan for his 200th catch when he was well over 38. Rohit doesn't attempt to do that leave aside taking catches. When your feet are not moving the bowler snares you easily. Sunny , yourself scored an unbelievable 96 on a treacherous pitch when you were well over 38. Rohit is no Dravid or Gavaskar. Yes he is a selfless cricketer. But doesn't look like coming back to his prime
Siraj dropped Head when he was at 76, Head then went on to score 140 which helped Australia increase the lead, if he had taken that catch the lead could have been less than 100 and India would have had a better chance in the second innings, thats why Siraj was so animated when he took the wicket of Head because that catch most probably cost the match for India
Sunny sir comments are similar like Managers in corporate who have some favorites in his team , whether favorites employee sleeps in office but still no complains from them.
Sunil is correct about needing Bumrah somehow must play all 5 tests. His workload must be managed because right now it is a 1 man team. Australia may have the luxury of being able to rest/replace their seamers, but not India. Hazlewood injured, but Boland comes straight in and was truly excellent. That depth of talent is all part of a nation's cricketing strength.
Things which India need to get it right are- 1) MOST IMPORTANT that our batsmen ensure that they at least score 280 to 330 runs consistently so that our bowlers can have enough confidence to go on all out attack. 2) 3rd pacer from now on should be Akashdeep by default, bcz he is an out and out red ball strike bowler who has wicket taking ability and can sustain the pressure built by Bumrah and Siraj ; the same thing which Aussies did with Starc, Cummins, and Boland. Rana got this right in Perth but was brutally exposed in Adelaide bcz he does not have as much control, experience and tricks with the red ball like an Akashdeep. 3) Rohit sharma needs to be aggressive with his field placements and communication with bowlers so that the game just not keeps drifting away and him waiting for things to happen. 4) Washington Sundar should play in GABA bcz last tym he was one of the match winner in GABA (Both with bat and ball), his batting is way more solid and consistent which he proved vs NZ too, also if there is something for the spinner he picks up wickets too (again proved by his recent bowling vs NZ and last tym in GABA) or can just come in and choke the run flow. The man is young, confident, in form and skilled enough to get the job done for us. As far as Ashwin and Jadeja for me will have an important role in SCG and to some extent in MCG.
If anything we need to back our bowlers. Absolutely pathetic to see him talking ill of the bowlers. The plain truth is that our batting has been failing from a long time. If Jaiswal, Pant and Reddy stop scoring, God save us then from utter humiliation.
Nikhil- have you watched closely the match live? Siraj clearly said head used bad words against him.. that when he did send off signals..he did not utter a word
Gavaskar is a goose. Mate you said the Australian dressing room had rifts. How totally wrong you are you goose. Your commentary is so off the mark. The Indian batting is very average
How are the Indian batsmen not to blame despite a legendary knock from Head and the Aussie bowlers? India batted a total of 81 overs in the entire match. You are gonna lose 99/100 games if you only bat 40 overs each inning.
I have a simple question,Is Rohit Sharma the right man to lead India in test matches?? He is a great batsman in ODI and T20 matches. His record in test matches outside India is not great. It's always desirable your best player should lead the team in test matches.Jaspreet Bumrah was a perfect fit for that role.
Gavaskar has a job to keep. If harshit Rana blows well then India will win. What a shameless statement. We lost because Kohli and Rohit together made less than what Ashwin made. If they had at least made 100 runs in four innings together, it would have been a different game.
Honestly, Mr Gavaskar is a bit of a joke. He was advocating for Rahul to open for second Test right after the the first Test was concluded. He even openly backed Rahul opening while commentating during the match. Now he wants both the players to switch places. This is just messing around with the players. To be honest, Rohit's best position is to be an opener. That's where all his successes have come. But now that Rahul has been given that opening slot, he needs a good run. You can't change batting positions in Test in every other match. Rohit has to find a way to deal with the old ball and play at no. 6.
I agree with Sunil G India lagged 3rd bowler. Rana made easy for head to runs the score quickly especially during daytime. Yes Rohit and Virat Should stand up and deliver No doubt on it.
Siraj should aim at Travis’s head. When ball is in his hands. It’s a good strategy. IF Travis has good head space about hooking or pulling so be it. If not he should know that India were not head over heels with Travis’s batting more so with his antics. This India team playing Border Gavaskar trophy is not the team who las the latter spearheading their pacemen. We have people who can give it back literally and verbally as well. Good job SIraj, may Allah / Eshwar bless you with loads of courage for the upcoming challenges.
Mr Naz, why do you even bother interviewing Gavaskar? Mr Gavaskar is clearly contracted by the BCCI to protect the brand of the Indian team and its stars. Get somebody on who will speak more honestly than Gavaskar.
Nikhil, please be clear with your facts. Bumrah was rested for the last test against NZ in India. These 5 tests are crucial. Therefore, there should be no question of Bumrah being rested. In fact, Shami should have already been there with the team. I still vividly recall Kapil winning the Melbourne Test in 80-81 for India bowling with a strapped thigh and taking 5-6 wickets.
Huge contrast between the length that Starc bowled and all Indian bowlers. He was happy to risk over-pitching and being taken for runs...to get any possible movement available. India bowled short of a length and wrong line. It was the batting that failed miserably though.
Playing a D/N test is a completely different game and 180 degrees opposite a total Day test . India still have never been able to compete D/N tests overseas . Its the inability to adapt to the D/N mode of test cricket. So long as it's under the sun the our players feel more at home and their abilities come out well . Once the evening session sets in with lights on the longer version game adaption in this environment just doesn't work well at all . This I have closely observed . The Gabba test will bring back normalcy to the environment India is home at so result will be totally different.
Why are the critics not addressing the elephant in the room , which is the form of VK, RS in Tests for the last 3-4 years? Why are they persisted with , despite numerous failures? This issue is either glossed over or side-tracked.
I entirely agree with Sunil Gavaskar. This work load management is all nonsense. Let an India contracted player not play IPL. Why are people not suggesting that?
Too much time spent discussing the Head-Siraj incident. Surprised that Mr. Gavaskar thinks Rohit should open. He's clearly struggling. When he can't handle the old ball, can we realistically expect him to stand up to a new cherry. Can't agree more regarding Jaspreet's participation in every match of this series.
Rohit Sharma did a blunder by withdrawing from 1st test. He should realise that its not easy to comeback especially on a day night test against the best bowling attack. Its all about priorities.
Australia planned 3-0 lead with 2 matches on fast bouncing pitches at Perth and Brisbane and pink ball day and night at Adelaide. India surprised them at Perth and if We can do it at Brisbane we can win the series 3-2. G.Sundaresan.
Most important thing Indian batters don’t have the technique to counter good bowling whether it’s spin or pace on a good pitch in the recent times. Same thing goes for the bowling- harsit Rana was bowling some stupid stuff, he has no idea what to do, all he had to was to watch the Australians bowl and learn from them. India’s bowling coach is mornie Morkel who himself was an ideal bowler on this sort of pitches. What was he doing ? This too many failures from virat, Rahul and co is so hard to accept. I keep track of many previous matches where these Players failed one after another. This sort of things have started happening after the retirement of sewhag, tendulkar, Dravid, laxman, and co. The present bunch of batters don’t have any character. They might show some flashes once in a while - that’s all but it cannot be consistent, the only consistent thing is their failure.
The Indian team should practise playing yorker deliveries and leave deliveries outside the off stump. The Aussies comfortable against Indian Abhishek Sharma,Shivam Dube, Washington Sundar and Axal Patel should be brought in the side. The Indian batters should wait for the loose deliveries and should not try to each and every ball. They should have a strong defense.
Harshit Rana didn't bowl that well in the first test match too, he picked up some good wickets with his pace but he wasn't consistent, when Bumrah and Siraj struggles to dismiss Starc and his partnerships in both the innings, Rana couldn't do any better to break the partnerships early. The team selection was bad, in this test match Akash Deep should have been picked, he can bowl swing better, and in the Gabba test match someone like Prasidh Krishna should be picked, he can bowl the bouncers on that track which would help to create the pressure at the end for Bumrah, and Siraj, and Washington Sundar could also use the bounce there at the Gabba.
What Mr SG thinks .. we are not understanding what he is trying to do here .. protecting ever struggling batter and clueless, uninspiring Test captain Rohit by blaming a 22 yr old bowler who is playing his 2nd test only… Shame on you SG; and hopefully sports today would find someone who can dare to speak truth not a mouthpiece of bcci for the future analysis.
Rohit struggled against the Aussie pace bowlers at No 6 with a 20 over old ball, how can he open the innings facing the new ball? Super hero Jaiswal would score only when the pitch is flat. Gill is like VVS Laxman, puts all the hard work, gets a 30 and gets out, Kohli now a days looks good only when the top 3 gives a good start, he isn't looking any good when the ball is still new, in that case Pant should bat at 4, so that Kohli can capitalize the good work done by Pant. KL Rahul has again proven he is Mr.Inconsistent, and why is this Sarfarz Khan in the team? Padikal, Sai Sudharshan are better options.
Virat and RoSha should take responsibility for their failures, they have used the fame gained by playing for India for their personal gain (endorsement ads etc), so it becomes a lot more important for these two to give back to Indian Cricket, right now the best way they can contribute is by retirement
We do not have guts to criticise at least, Just look at the AUS media or news papers after 1st test loss how brutal they are about Marnus, Once RO-KO. were Asset to Team now they are burden to the same team.
BCCI - please wake up and high time to scrap this Pink -ball Test format and to fit that as part of WTC scheme, is a win gifted to Australia. Adelaide was a losing forte for Oz playing with red ball and spin friendly conditions. Off late Oz have smartly nullified that equation by playing once in a blue moon PINK BALL format and that too at Adelaide. Asking Team India batters to play against the pink ball, is like asking our State board pass out students to sit for the IIT entrance exam directly without any proper preparations. With Team India playing 5 tests each against Oz and England both at home and overseas, it is not fair playing just one-off game with PINK BALL. Our top order has been pathetic to say for a very long time now. We found out that they were being exposed at home itself, forget about Oz conditions. At least some of the new crop players showed some fight at Perth and playing PINK BALL is only exposing our batter's techniques big time. We were all very confident after our performance in Perth, but this PINK BALL TEST is not only exposing but would also dent batter's confidence big time. Also high time for ROKO pair to safely dismantle themselves from TEST format like CHITTI - THE ROBOT. Hitman looks like Shitman for quite some time now and KING Kohli has now become a PAUPER at Adelaide with his 7-11 scores. Not sure if he is planning to open 7-11 franchises in UK. Honestly tell me guys, is it not disappointing to see these two big leaders not standing up tall ?
Why so much focus on this Head Siraj tiff? They even spoke to each other and hugged it out post the match. It's a sport these things happen. Just move on and focus on the cricket for god's sake
Hii.Question for Nikhil and Sunny ji..Why day/night test cricket is played with a pink ball?It can be played with a white ball just like Day/night odi....why pink?
I fail to see as to why Indian pacers like Ishant Sharma and Swinger Bhuvaneshwar Kumar after good showing in South Africa were dropped. Lots of politics in Indian cricket. It is high time that both Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli take retirement at the end of the Australian series. They have minted lots of money from cricket.
now india need consistent off-stump bowels expected bumrah not available this team rana not bad need arshadeep but ausis test series not available gavasker ji india want win next test match need change full team jaiswal kohli & jurel khan& panth gilll& nithish abhimanu& rana japrith & deep
Primary reason for defeat is failure of whole batting unit ... Batting at first how come you will get bowled at below 40 overs?.. Mr.Sunil G is trying to elevate bowling unit have flaws.. but thats not true .. I can understand he is trying to support batsmen at challenging times.. How long you can hide the reality..
Gavaskar stop it. Stop supporting Indian team they were a disaster. Can u call that out? or u r too weak to say it, why cant u call a spade a spade. there is politics in BCCI, with Gambir coming in. A stench
What rubbish as usual from Mr Gavaskar. Stop blaming the bowlers. Your nonsense batsmen played 45 overs in 1st innings and 37 overs in 2nd innings. INDIAN BATSMEN are waste fellows. Rohit and Virat are to be blamed as they are the BIG SENIORS.
Mr Gavaskar wants to be in good books of our cricketers and lost his spine like our batters . No complaints on Indian batting 😂
He has no choice... 👎
He is a slave.. After all these are very much a business
He has to Lick Batters
He keeps changing such a biased commentator along with harsha boghle. Idiots
Thank GOD wise peoples like u realise this

The fact is that in terms of ability, control and experience with the red ball Akashdeep is far better. But with white ball Rana is better than him. Akashdeep will be a better support to Bumrah and Siraj, like how Scott Boland was to Starc and Cummins.
As always blame the bowlers who have been over performing and winning you the games for years now and keep defending your so called star batters.
Intentionally... becus he has no choice...
We have a so weak batting line-up that we cannot even expect them to score 350+ consistently don't know how 180-200 have become a score where u can even fight for the match..
Rana was the worst bowler on show. Rana Ashwin gave easy runs. Their runs are the difference

It is a failure of whole batting unit ... Batting at first how come you will get bowled at below 40 overs?
As always top questions from Nikhil. 👏
No excuses...that was a magnificent pitch and perfect conditions for cricket. It does not get any better than that.
No complains from Indian batsmen, Wao , its fault of great deliveries 😂😂😂
Spot on analysis about playing pink ball test by Gavaskar
Typical Of EX Mumbai cricketers who never critize Rohit .

Rohit cannot bat against quality fast bowling on seaming tracks.
His feet movement is sluggish. He should work on his fitness. You see him not diving in the slips when the ball is in the air. That speaks about his fitness levels.
I remember Dravid diving behind Dhoni to take an unbelievable catch off Harbajan for his 200th catch when he was well over 38.
Rohit doesn't attempt to do that leave aside taking catches.

Things which India need to get it right are-
1) MOST IMPORTANT that our batsmen ensure that they at least score 280 to 330 runs consistently so that our bowlers can have enough confidence to go on all out attack.
2) 3rd pacer from now on should be Akashdeep by default, bcz he is an out and out red ball strike bowler who has wicket taking ability and can sustain the pressure built by Bumrah and Siraj ; the same thing which Aussies did with Starc, Cummins, and Boland. Rana got this right in Perth but was brutally exposed in Adelaide bcz he does not have as much control, experience and tricks with the red ball like an Akashdeep.
3) Rohit sharma needs to be aggressive with his field placements and communication with bowlers so that the game just not keeps drifting away and him waiting for things to happen.
4) Washington Sundar should play in GABA bcz last tym he was one of the match winner in GABA (Both with bat and ball), his batting is way more solid and consistent which he proved vs NZ too, also if there is something for the spinner he picks up wickets too (again proved by his recent bowling vs NZ and last tym in GABA) or can just come in and choke the run flow. The man is young, confident, in form and skilled enough to get the job done for us.
As far as Ashwin and Jadeja for me will have an important role in SCG and to some extent in MCG.
At least our batter has to score their avg ( runs )
50+40+60+45+35+40+45 = 315 + 20 ( bowlers ) = 335
Please itna runs toh karo 🙏
If anything we need to back our bowlers. Absolutely pathetic to see him talking ill of the bowlers. The plain truth is that our batting has been failing from a long time. If Jaiswal, Pant and Reddy stop scoring, God save us then from utter humiliation.
Travis Head should be declared as official cricketing father of Ind team

Rohit has to open 😳, Rohit rather shouldn't be in the playing x1

Rohit should open...a bottle of coke
How are the Indian batsmen not to blame despite a legendary knock from Head and the Aussie bowlers? India batted a total of 81 overs in the entire match. You are gonna lose 99/100 games if you only bat 40 overs each inning.
Rohit is not a test batter, India always get confused with formats! Gavaskar is asking rohit to be pinch hitter in tests😂
While the weasel scored at Test match SR in ODIs. The guy has finally gone senile.
Scoot Boland bowled extremely well
I have a simple question,Is Rohit Sharma the right man to lead India in test matches?? He is a great batsman in ODI and T20 matches. His record in test matches outside India is not great. It's always desirable your best player should lead the team in test matches.Jaspreet Bumrah was a perfect fit for that role.
He'll not say against the pathetic performance by our batters coz he loves his job as a "commentator.."
Rohit Sharma was never made for test cricket. His stats are a testimony.
Age takes a toll on even the greatest
Other than Mumbaikars, fans from rest of India are wondering how Rohit sharma is still in the team that too as a captain.....
Gavaskar has a job to keep. If harshit Rana blows well then India will win. What a shameless statement. We lost because Kohli and Rohit together made less than what Ashwin made. If they had at least made 100 runs in four innings together, it would have been a different game.
Gavaskar is a spineless weasel who just want to make money at any cost.
Honestly, Mr Gavaskar is a bit of a joke. He was advocating for Rahul to open for second Test right after the the first Test was concluded. He even openly backed Rahul opening while commentating during the match. Now he wants both the players to switch places. This is just messing around with the players. To be honest, Rohit's best position is to be an opener. That's where all his successes have come. But now that Rahul has been given that opening slot, he needs a good run. You can't change batting positions in Test in every other match. Rohit has to find a way to deal with the old ball and play at no. 6.
I agree with Sunil G India lagged 3rd bowler. Rana made easy for head to runs the score quickly especially during daytime.
Yes Rohit and Virat Should stand up and deliver No doubt on it.
If siraj can bowl with double fire head will hit with triple power. Siraj too much attitude will definitely make him the low key player
Siraj should aim at Travis’s head. When ball is in his hands. It’s a good strategy. IF Travis has good head space about hooking or pulling so be it. If not he should know that India were not head over heels with Travis’s batting more so with his antics. This India team playing Border Gavaskar trophy is not the team who las the latter spearheading their pacemen. We have people who can give it back literally and verbally as well. Good job SIraj, may Allah / Eshwar bless you with loads of courage for the upcoming challenges.
Rohit Sharma is not a test cricketer.
Mr Naz, why do you even bother interviewing Gavaskar? Mr Gavaskar is clearly contracted by the BCCI to protect the brand of the Indian team and its stars. Get somebody on who will speak more honestly than Gavaskar.
Nikhil, please be clear with your facts. Bumrah was rested for the last test against NZ in India.
These 5 tests are crucial. Therefore, there should be no question of Bumrah being rested. In fact, Shami should have already been there with the team. I still vividly recall Kapil winning the Melbourne Test in 80-81 for India bowling with a strapped thigh and taking 5-6 wickets.
Huge contrast between the length that Starc bowled and all Indian bowlers.
He was happy to risk over-pitching and being taken for runs...to get any possible movement available. India bowled short of a length and wrong line.
It was the batting that failed miserably though.
Playing a D/N test is a completely different game and 180 degrees opposite a total Day test . India still have never been able to compete D/N tests overseas .
Its the inability to adapt to the D/N mode of test cricket. So long as it's under the sun the our players feel more at home and their abilities come out well . Once the evening session sets in with lights on the longer version game adaption in this environment just doesn't work well at all .
This I have closely observed .
The Gabba test will bring back normalcy to the environment India is home at so result will be totally different.
This is what I thought about. Exactly you wrote.
Indian batters were in fear against Australian bowlers.
Why are the critics not addressing the elephant in the room , which is the form of VK, RS in Tests for the last 3-4 years? Why are they persisted with , despite numerous failures? This issue is either glossed over or side-tracked.
I entirely agree with Sunil Gavaskar. This work load management is all nonsense. Let an India contracted player not play IPL. Why are people not suggesting that?
Best position for Rohit sharma in the remaining 3 games is 12th man.
Sharma ji should fake an injury before the Gabba test...it might help team India .He is a walking wicket ..
Too much time spent discussing the Head-Siraj incident.
Surprised that Mr. Gavaskar thinks Rohit should open. He's clearly struggling. When he can't handle the old ball, can we realistically expect him to stand up to a new cherry.
Can't agree more regarding Jaspreet's participation in every match of this series.
Rohit Sharma did a blunder by withdrawing from 1st test. He should realise that its not easy to comeback especially on a day night test against the best bowling attack. Its all about priorities.
Australia planned 3-0 lead with 2 matches on fast bouncing pitches at Perth and Brisbane and pink ball day and night at Adelaide. India surprised them at Perth and if We can do it at Brisbane we can win the series 3-2.

Most important thing Indian batters don’t have the technique to counter good bowling whether it’s spin or pace on a good pitch in the recent times. Same thing goes for the bowling- harsit Rana was bowling some stupid stuff, he has no idea what to do, all he had to was to watch the Australians bowl and learn from them. India’s bowling coach is mornie Morkel who himself was an ideal bowler on this sort of pitches. What was he doing ? This too many failures from virat, Rahul and co is so hard to accept. I keep track of many previous matches where these
Players failed one after another.
This sort of things have started happening after the retirement of sewhag, tendulkar, Dravid, laxman, and co. The present bunch of batters don’t have any character. They might show some flashes once in a while - that’s all but it cannot be consistent, the only consistent thing is their failure.
Gaba Brisbane ❤ma
India fateh krega 😊
The Indian team should practise playing yorker deliveries and leave deliveries outside the off stump. The Aussies comfortable against Indian Abhishek Sharma,Shivam Dube, Washington Sundar and Axal Patel should be brought in the side. The Indian batters should wait for the loose deliveries and should not try to each and every ball. They should have a strong defense.
And during your chat with pointing, you said Rohit has to play at 6😂
You should have asked which spinner should play in the Gabba test match, Sunny would have gone for Jadeja
3 out of 4 innings this team doesn’t reach 200..and this legend blames the bowlers..blasphemous!!
Why they dont pick arshdeep for test no body on internet is talking on this 😮 hes a proven great bolwer
Harshit Rana didn't bowl that well in the first test match too, he picked up some good wickets with his pace but he wasn't consistent, when Bumrah and Siraj struggles to dismiss Starc and his partnerships in both the innings, Rana couldn't do any better to break the partnerships early. The team selection was bad, in this test match Akash Deep should have been picked, he can bowl swing better, and in the Gabba test match someone like Prasidh Krishna should be picked, he can bowl the bouncers on that track which would help to create the pressure at the end for Bumrah, and Siraj, and Washington Sundar could also use the bounce there at the Gabba.
Gavaskar so biased ..blaming harshit Rana..!!! .. why always cuddle batsmen....there was never a moment where batsmen put pressure
Problem -India bowled out to a low score. Solution - Harshit Rana should bowl better. What kind of analysis is this🤦
What Mr SG thinks .. we are not understanding what he is trying to do here .. protecting ever struggling batter and clueless, uninspiring Test captain Rohit by blaming a 22 yr old bowler who is playing his 2nd test only…
Shame on you SG; and hopefully sports today would find someone who can dare to speak truth not a mouthpiece of bcci for the future analysis.
why not bring Sanju inform batter in India? Sare Lallu chappu Khel rahe he
Gavasker don’t want to accept mumbaikar’s mistakes. Vadapav and chokoli both has to retire now. Parchi KL needs to be dropped from squad as well.
Rohit struggled against the Aussie pace bowlers at No 6 with a 20 over old ball, how can he open the innings facing the new ball? Super hero Jaiswal would score only when the pitch is flat. Gill is like VVS Laxman, puts all the hard work, gets a 30 and gets out, Kohli now a days looks good only when the top 3 gives a good start, he isn't looking any good when the ball is still new, in that case Pant should bat at 4, so that Kohli can capitalize the good work done by Pant. KL Rahul has again proven he is Mr.Inconsistent, and why is this Sarfarz Khan in the team? Padikal, Sai Sudharshan are better options.
Really india lacked bowling 😅

Ipl coach ipl bowler ipl captain
😂
This is test cricket in Australia not 120 ball circus
Bumraah shld hv maintained captaicy
Virat and RoSha should take responsibility for their failures, they have used the fame gained by playing for India for their personal gain (endorsement ads etc), so it becomes a lot more important for these two to give back to Indian Cricket, right now the best way they can contribute is by retirement
Rohit has technical issue how can he bat at opening position?
Who has the most runs for India over the last 5-6 years in tests including sena ? Search it
@manishjain4691 I am not saying Rohit Sharma is not good batter but there is a technical fault...
@@manikantathanniru8865 it could be a technical fault which he needs to address and same with Virat kohli. Else they should make way for others
We do not have guts to criticise at least, Just look at the AUS media or news papers after 1st test loss how brutal they are about Marnus, Once RO-KO. were Asset to Team now they are burden to the same team.
Rohit Sharma has lost his timing, he reminds me of Virendar Sehwag in this final few test matches
Poor captaincy from rohit ,pathetic to see his body language ,before fighting he surrendered himself 😢
BCCI - please wake up and high time to scrap this Pink -ball Test format and to fit that as part of WTC scheme, is a win gifted to Australia.
Adelaide was a losing forte for Oz playing with red ball and spin friendly conditions. Off late Oz
have smartly nullified that equation by playing once in a blue moon PINK BALL format and that too at Adelaide.
Asking Team India batters to play against the pink ball, is like asking our State board pass out students to sit
for the IIT entrance exam directly without any proper preparations. With Team India playing 5 tests each against
Oz and England both at home and overseas, it is not fair playing just one-off game with PINK BALL.
Our top order has been pathetic to say for a very long time now. We found out that they were being exposed at home itself,
forget about Oz conditions. At least some of the new crop players showed some fight at Perth and playing PINK BALL is only exposing
our batter's techniques big time. We were all very confident after our performance in Perth, but this PINK BALL TEST is not only
exposing but would also dent batter's confidence big time.
Also high time for ROKO pair to safely dismantle themselves from TEST format like CHITTI - THE ROBOT. Hitman looks like Shitman for
quite some time now and KING Kohli has now become a PAUPER at Adelaide with his 7-11 scores. Not sure if he is planning to open 7-11
franchises in UK. Honestly tell me guys, is it not disappointing to see these two big leaders not standing up tall ?
Why so much focus on this Head Siraj tiff? They even spoke to each other and hugged it out post the match. It's a sport these things happen. Just move on and focus on the cricket for god's sake
Hii.Question for Nikhil and Sunny ji..Why day/night test cricket is played with a pink ball?It can be played with a white ball just like Day/night odi....why pink?
I fail to see as to why Indian pacers like Ishant Sharma and Swinger Bhuvaneshwar Kumar after good showing in South Africa were dropped. Lots of politics in Indian cricket. It is high time that both Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli take retirement at the end of the Australian series. They have minted lots of money from cricket.
To sum up what SG said Indian batsmen can't play good bowling.

now india need consistent off-stump bowels expected bumrah not available this team rana not bad need arshadeep but ausis test series not available

Primary reason for defeat is failure of whole batting unit ... Batting at first how come you will get bowled at below 40 overs?..
Mr.Sunil G is trying to elevate bowling unit have flaws.. but thats not true .. I can understand he is trying to support batsmen at challenging times.. How long you can hide the reality..
Gavaskar stop it. Stop supporting Indian team they were a disaster. Can u call that out? or u r too weak to say it, why cant u call a spade a spade. there is politics in BCCI, with Gambir coming in. A stench
Naz please let us talk cricket.
Siraj vs Head etc does not matter.
What rubbish as usual from Mr Gavaskar. Stop blaming the bowlers. Your nonsense batsmen played 45 overs in 1st innings and 37 overs in 2nd innings. INDIAN BATSMEN are waste fellows. Rohit and Virat are to be blamed as they are the BIG SENIORS.
He s escaping as hez d part of bgt
Runs not on the board. What's the use of blaming bowlers?
need to give rohit rest and leave him sit on reserve bench rip
