When did this happened? I didn't hear anything about it although not shocking if its true. Pandya is controversial guy and if you believe his own words then he consider himself as big fuckboi.
On Paine i think it was CA, they ignored the allegation because they were already in deep mess due to Sand paper scandal.
The news was suppressed by most of the media outlets in India, although it went viral outside. Here are a few links:

A woman named Rehnuma Bhati has accused that Hardik along with his two friends raped her at the Trident hotel many years ago.
Quote
"She (rehnuma) wrote that she was forced to sleep with Munaf Patel in a continental hotel, and with Hardik Pandya in a hotel named Trident. According to the complaint, Pandya and his two friends committed all kinds of unnatural sexual activities with her including oral sex and anal sex, and all of them were drunk," the report stated.

Ok, this could be one out of two things. The girl is trying to get some attention and it could be that the situation has happened because all of them wanted to. And another thing that could happen is that this has actually happened and the girl is actually telling the truth. And I think this matter will be solved by giving the girl some money and suppressing any news about this.

Big Boards suppresses such news to safe there reputations. BCCI n CA will both give cover to there players over current sexual allegations. Also both victims waited for considerable amount of time before coming out with allegations that's making things suspicious.

Bloody hell.... Sexting scandal, Paine is gone. Surprisingly it happened in 2017-18-ish but CA still handed him captaincy after Sand paper gate.
That's how things move around big players and celebrities. I m sure that coworker must be blackmailing Tim since that sexting, once he refused to get blackmailed she revealed this story. Recently H Pandya of India is also facing rape allegations. The one who accuses H Pandya of raping her waited till T20 WC, bitter but strange thing.

Well, we all know that these types of allegations and problems are nothing new for cricketers as many greats of the game (I won't say any names) have also had this type of problem. I think this really happens because of no sense of discipline.

^^ It is sad to see Tim Paine ending his career like this and he is 36 years old and i hope he will not retire, he is stepping down as captain and i hope he will get a suspension or something like that rather than ending his career. So the question will be who will be the next Test captain for Australia and i do not see any potential young players who could carry the torch.
Consider his career finish if CA is serious about these allegations because Paine can't cement his spot in the squad as wicketkeeper-batsman. He was there only because he was captain.

Why not Steve Smith? He is the best player in the squad right now. David Warner won't be a bad choice either. And in case they are aiming for the future, then they should go for Marnus Labuschangne. Now what I don't want is them to hand over the captaincy to someone who is not performing at the moment. That rules out players like Mitchell Starc. Anyway, this is going to be another turbulent phase in Australian cricket. They just won the T20 World Cup, and things looked to be going in the right track.
They are not even considering Starc, Marnus names for the captaincy. Many in management wants Pat Cummins to lead the Australia as he's also vice captain but they are worried about his workload cause he play all 3 format and cricket is already became very hectic for the fast bowler. Would be interesting if they go with Warner or Smith tho.

Tim Paine decided to take his career on his terms, i thought it would end up like Ashwin predicted but this is how he wanted to end his career. Who in the right sense will be doing these things in this day and age, silly of him.

In Asia subcontinent we have dew factor very serious for bowling second and pitches are also had no helpful for bowlers so here mostly toss factor works and after winning teams love to chase because they know this is good with more chances of winning match which already happen in all world cup.
For spinner the dew is a problem as the ball gets wet and it can be a problem to grip and it takes too much time to wipe the ball down and now a days the grounds are not that big like they used to be in the past and any miss hit would cross the boundary.

In world cup we have last 3 matches with good runs but every time chase able which were mostly predictable and here India lost it just because of too much cricket and tiredness which could be serious issue for them in future as well.
Too many matches and the IPL is the reason that India did not perform as a team in the first two matches and now India is taking that against New Zealand and if the World Cup was conducted in India then i think it would have been a different story.

LOL.. After the India vs England test at the Oval (2nd September), we didn't had a single test match for almost three months. Did anyone noticed this? Just proves once again that test format is dying. There is interest in test cricket only when the pig-3 sides are playing. No one really cares when smaller teams like West Indies or Sri Lanka plays test cricket. Anyway, Sri Lanka will be hosting West Indies for another meaningless bilateral tour. The first test is scheduled for 21st November. Apart from Jason Holder, there is hardly any experienced player in the Windies squad.

Why you call Big-3 as Pig-3 every time you write? We need to have these biletral series since they are played for decades. You cant stop decade old tradition just because of few years of hit T20. Its because of these Test and ODI, we have seen legendary cricketers. It because of these Test and ODIs we develop interest in T20, without them cricket is nothing.

We have very few matches those won by teams with batting first most teams after winning toss having batting second because they know it's good for batting, so we can't talk too much about this but in next T20 world cup we will have some good competition of skills and quality because Australian pitches are good and have some good help for bowlers.

In world cup we have last 3 matches with good runs but every time chase able which were mostly predictable and here India lost it just because of too much cricket and tiredness which could be serious issue for them in future as well.

I don't know but has this actually become a trend that whichever team will balls first win the match? It seems like even if the team betting first put a really respectable total or a total that is more than what they think would have been good, steel gets beaten by the chasing team. I think now everything should be bad second unless they have a really good bowling lineup that can defend almost anything.
Yes specially in sub continent conditions at this time of the year in the night matches it is a serious problem because of the due coming in the second innings makes things very easier for the batting teams as it becomes very difficult for the bowlers to grip the ball and hence they cannot control the ball as they would have liked

T20 is more about entertainment then cricket. Just like in baseball you have to hit every ball same is the case with T20 cricket. There are bowlers wh have very good bowling record in T20 but have very low wicket taking record in Test. Pakistan despite losing toss in the semis, gave Australia a tough fight. Otherwise team batting second have won quite easily.

One reason why Indian batting failed specially against Pakistan in UAE is because they used to play fast bowlers with speed of 120 to 130 in IPL but Pakistani pace bowlers used to bowl over 140. This league structure is not good for cricket in the long run, player who can perform good in test or ODI is real cricketer.

Well.. that's strange. In the IPL we have tearaway pacers like Kyle Jamieson, Lockie Ferguson and Anrich Nortje. They normally bowl within the 140-150 kmph range. On top of that, the pitches in the UAE were not very supportive of the pace bowling. The scoring rate plummeted during the 7-15 overs, and during this time it was the medium pacers and spinners who dominated the bowling attack. The top wicket takers were two spinners - Wanindu Hasaranga and Adam Zampa, followed by Trent Boult.



@galambo the real reason was fatigue the Indian player’s were tired, and instead of opting out of the tournament or taking a break from IPL to be fit they decided to turn up and put in a horrible show.

Furthermore the team that played Pakistan could easily play any pace bowler if they were fully fit, but sadly they weren’t hence they lost the match, but going ahead in future test matches I’m sure they’ll do well against any pace bowler.

This is not an excuse that excessive matches affects the player performance. The players need to work out on their fitness and ready to play 365 days of the year.
The competition is too much these days that if one player take rest, it give opportunity to the other players to permanently take their position and outclass them in performance.

Well, if you chase money then there are some consequences to be faced and the Indians did face those consequences. But yes Indians have really good batsmen so I don't think that even classy pace bowling should be too much of a problem for them.

Umm what are you talking about bhai? T-20 WC just finished so it understandable. WTC schedule is about to kick in anyway and plenty of test series are lined up for the next few months.  

SL vs WI (21 Nov)
Ind vs NZ (25 Nov)
Ban vs Pak (26 Nov)
Aus vs Eng  (8 Dec)
SA vs Ind ( 17 Dec)

Bloody hell.... Sexting scandal, Paine is gone. Surprisingly it happened in 2017-18-ish but CA still handed him captaincy after Sand paper gate.

BREAKING: Tim Paine resigns as sexting scandal engulfs Aussie Test captain

Quote
Tim Paine has stood down as Australia captain after being investigated by Cricket Australia over sending a co-worker an explicit image of himself along with a string of lewd messages.

The 36-year-old was promoted to captain following the ball tampering scandal in South Africa in 2018 but has resigned in shame following the latest scandal to rock Australian cricket.

In a statement just released, Paine has told Cricket Australia that he will quit as captain, effective immediately.

Cricket Australia chairman Richard Freudenstein said: “Tim felt it was in the best interests of his family and Australian cricket to take this decision to step down as captain.

“The Board has accepted Tim’s resignation and will now work through a process with the National Selection Panel of identifying and appointing a new captain.”

According to the Herald Sun, the messages date back to the eve and the morning of the first Ashes Test at the Gabba in 2017.

They report that while some of the messages were too explicit to publish, the exchange included Paine suggesting to the woman: “Will you want to taste my *** ?? F*** me, I’m seriously hard.”

The messages also included what was described in the texts as a “dick pic”.

In a correspondence with Australia Cricket authorities in June 2018, the woman claimed she was offended by “Mr Paine’s sexually explicit, unwelcome and unsolicited photograph of his genitals in addition to the graphic sexual comments”.

Cricket Australia reportedly became aware of the messages as long ago as March 2018 after letter of complaint were sent to Cricket Australia and to Cricket Tasmania - the latter of which she worked at before resigning in 2017.

It is also reported that complaints were made to the Australian Human Rights Commission regarding alleged sexual harrassment in releation to the exchange.

^ Actually, I think the pitches were a little bit predictable and not very healthy for good cricket. Because most of the time the team winning the test and choosing to feel first was winning and the first bowlers got very little out of the pitches. And cricket is a game wherein my opinion these are should have more wickets because they are the impact bowlers. But like spinners should also have more wickets because now it is it's the job of a leg spinner to take wickets not to check runs.
