It's actually exciting to me. Before we used to see test matches playing 5 long days without any result. They were not hitting the balls but staying in the pitch like a dead man. It was boring to see. If you don't play then why are you in the pitch at the first place.

Now a days, we hardly see draw tests.

Hey test cricket is not forgetten by players what has happened is now players have a different approach towards it, earlier they used to settle for a draw now they want to go for outright win. If you’re not aware then let me inform you that ICC is bringing several new rules which will make test cricket very interesting. The most notable rule is the introduction of free hit on the no ball, that’ll force bowlers to not give away extra runs.

Test cricket should be the ultimate test for any cricketer-team, and if any batsman or team is playing in a test match as they play in 20-20 mode, then it is pathetic.
99 times of 100 they are going to fail if choosing that approach. That's why we are witnessing so many matches finishing within 3 days.

I don't mind batsmen playing aggressively in test cricket, its exciting for spectator too but play longer for f***sake because there is a reason its called 5-day cricket-Test cricket ( Test of cricketing skill)

Swinging bat in a Test match is very easy. Every club cricketer can do this on his best day and get quick 50-80runs sometime 100 too because in test format field position is entirely different in comparison of shorter format. The real challenge is batting all session and making big runs 100-200-300 and so on.

No one can deny that IPL changed everything in the world cricket, be it money, biggest talent hunt in Cricket history-career jumpstarter.
Bumrah, Pandaya brothers, Chahal, Maxwell, Warner, Bravo, Pollard etc list is very long.

But Imho because of 20-20 format, the majority of players don't take Test cricket seriously now. that's why test matches getting over within 3 days nowdays.

I strongly feel that the IPL has done more good than bad. It has become my favorite cricketing event over the years. The talent, emotions, grandeur, strokeplay etc are some of the reasons why I am in love with the IPL.

I do agree that there are a few cons, but the advantages of the IPL make it totally worth it in the long run.

It's the same for me. I do believe IPL done good thing than the bads. I can not find anything bad about IPL.

It's helping the players financially, it's exposing the talents, young stars. It's changing the conservative mindset that you have to bat very carefully and 250 runs is enough to win a 50 over match. There are a lot of good things about IPL.

Australia tournament was scheduled to get into the form of India, but things happened in the other way with Australia coming back to the form with the winning of the series. Before the world cup the IPL is scheduled which could get back the Indian players onto form.

It works both ways, sometimes things go straight, sometimes shit happens Cheesy

It's true that IPL can help in terms of getting in form-match practice, due to the high-pressure game during the IPL's matches.

But we shouldn't forget that its shorter format of the game and very different from 50 over cricket.

Islamabad United finally won the match. It was really entertaining match. Until the 2nd last over, it was hard to predict who will win especially the bookies were really confuse.

So, we are going to have 2nd Eliminator with Islamabad United vs Peshawar Zalmi. I think I will pick Islamabad again and in that case the final will be in between Islamabad United vs Quetta Gladiators.

May be Quetta Gladiators will be the champion :-)

Would love to heard you guys by the way.

Because of IPL now a days 400+ is not even safe in 50 over format. Cricket is now more focused on Betting performance. By the way, non of you are watching the PSL Eliminator 1 match?

Karachi Kings are on fire!

Yeah True, because of this, IPL literally jump-started many careers, domestic and International players both and it changed the world cricket. bad or good it's another debate.

I hardly follow IPL religiously. so PSL is out of the option for me unless I want to see some fine bowling performance.

Anybody wants to change the Top 4 selection now and put India somewhere below in 3rd 4th position?

Lol. Seriously? One series loss and you think India deserves to go down to the 3rd or 4th position? Stupidity at its finest.

The current Indian team were actually experimenting with certain players and they still managed to give Australia a run for their money though Australia managed to seal the deal brilliantly.

The current Indian team created history by defeating Australia and New Zealand by defeating them in their own backyard.

Nope

India still in my top 2. some hiccups always come during the journey and sometimes it's necessary to face this kind of hurdle for a reality check.

I am sure the Indian team will take a lesson from recent failure and bounce back with full power in the World Cup.

With the recent win of OZ , OZ are back again in the hunt and Smith and Warner to return to the world cup will make more difference to the site. On other hand India will have Dhoni back as well which will be crucial for them too. It will be interesting to see how India takes themself and what will be the playing squad.

I'm amazed that you're not familiar with Usman Khan Shinwari; he has been playing (and ruining stuff) for the last 1-2 years on an international level!

Consider me as an ignorant in this case, had to google his name, I am familiar with his face but seriously can't recall him watching in any game. Because he only

played against only one established team which is South Africa, other than that he appeared against Zimbave and UAE only in ODI.

Or maybe because he's that bad according to you. so I must have didn't even noticed him and he doesn't play test cricket. so another reason not to follow him.

And btw You guys have a factory of Fast bowlers how are we supposed to follow everyone. Grin

@Raja

Okay, so the pool is very big for Pakistani players atm (25 players) Any new name pop-up in limelight due to PSL? In your defaulter list, I am familiar with Haris Sohail only.

Here in India, we are juggling with 18 players or so. and I doubt that IPL gonna change anything here drastically.

@JSRAW you are right after this series Aussies are clearly third favorite for this world cup they done great job and this all happen on good time so we can saw now they are underdog for this world.

Don't know about the third fav but they are definitely underdog IMO Oz playing next series with Pakistan this month I suppose, right?

Important series for both teams because every team wants to finalize their squad for World cup. Oz would want to continue their winning streak before going to world cup.(very close to win series against India)

On the other hand, Pakistan can use some win here too before playing against England in English condition before the World cup.

No, my idea was wild like the other guy who said Bangladesh can lift the world cup. It does not cost to speak so write whatever you want to write :-)

Anyway, the truth is these two team has the most potential to win this years world cup. I think most of us will agree with this.

@Royse bhai you should name Srilanka if we are going in that direction Wink

I still have my reservation that Oz team can lift the World cup but they are the underdog in the upcoming World cup ( I already mentioned that before)

Having said that they are making a good case for themselves after playing good cricket against India.
