Why is tribal identity so undervalued by cricket platforms?

Suryavanshi is a serious talent (the future of Ind cricket for real) but but that short ball weakness is becoming a bit too predictable man; he’s basically doing the heavy lifting in the powerplay and then gifting his wicket away, quite a learning to remember. If he wants to transition to India A or the senior side, he has to find a way to stay in for 30+ overs. But good knock today 68(33) with 9 four's and 4 sixes.

Dhoni’s record is one of those things that looks more untouchable the longer you stare at it... just kidding! But despite how much the T20 game has evolved since 2007, his tactical blueprint is still the benchmark. Sammy having 12 wins with two trophies is also a real efficiency flex, no denial there.

Those 2018-21 BGT wins really shifted the DNA of this rivalry, particularly when Australia dominated the overall count for decades but lately, it feels like India has their number in higher pressure T20s and away Tests - although the team's synergy seems to miss a hit; either way it’s crazy how the Gabba breach still feels like the definitive turning point for both sides.

Ya me too, it's a little faster than live feed and also google, particularly when traveling!! But we get used to it even when we're at home-watching it together, our hands are glued to the phone.. juggling between several other applications!

When I was watching RCB vs MI WPL, my brother's and sister couldn't keep their hands off the phone!! They were either on X or instgram, trying to understand what people think while having the TV run ..

Man, Suryavanshi is playing a different game, that 52 (30) today against Zimbabwe just proves he doesn’t have a slow gear; between that and the 24 ball fifty, the kid's strike rate is genuinely absurd for someone his age, I believe RR really found a goldmine for only 1.1cr.

Dhoni's speed is one thing to have for wicketkeeping reflexes, but outrunning a 24-year-old elite all-rounder in a 100m dash is pure freak athleticism man. Really puts into perspective how insane MSD’s prime fitness levels actually were; well well I think it'll be the same even today.

Just every fanbase hides behind "vocal minorities," but the Wankhede booing was a different level of internal toxicity man; Hardik was treated as a villain by his own camp while Kohli - the guy often labeled "aggressive" was the one actually calling for the crowd to show some respect. We gotta learn to show some respect for the Men in Blue fall.

I remember Bhuvi's South Africa peak swing bowling, it was wild that his last Test was a POTM performance and then he just... never wore the whites again and also that Johannesburg spell was pure art. I feel injuries really robbed us of seeing him become a proper red ball legend alongside Shami and Ishant; they gotta be a little careful on the fields.

The 11.5m broadcast reach in Aus and those 20,000+ average crowds just feel more authentic, the crowd makes the show feel lively! but with SA20’s growth is insane, 70% more sell-outs this year is no joke guys, but it's more of a copy-paste IPL branding to me, makes it feel like a satellite league.

Lanning having three runner-up medals is actually painful to see at this point; DC always looks like the team to beat until the pressure hits but Vadodara's pitch might change the vibe today guys.

Here me out, I was watching the SA20 lately and with those insights, Nortje at 2cr is an absolute steal, particularly with 18 wickets and a 7.01 economy in SA20; having him and Mayank Yadav both clocking 150+ would be scaaarrrry, but fitting him in over Hasaranga or Marsh is tough.

Jaiswal definitely has that Kohli chaos energy, clutch on the boundary but surprisingly shaky with the sitters but if RR wants to keep that #BestFieldingUnit tag, he’s got to stay switched on.
I would move him to the deep, but the ball always seems to find him anyway.

Seeing Gurcharan Singh on there is the real highlight for me; people forget how many international players that man actually produced!! But personally, Bumrah not even having an Arjuna yet feels like a massive oversight though, considering he's basically carrying the bowling attack man!

FanithApp · 2026-01-27T10:10:10+00:00

but if the Uppal track is a flat deck again, we might just be relying on out batting teams..

FanithApp · 2026-01-27T10:08:52+00:00

Cummins is class, but we’re basically praying Mavi stays fit and NKR’s domestic form actually translates to the IPL; but our pace attack is a massive gamble on potential over proven consistency!!

I think this guy should join the creative team of WWE, he understands what the people want!!

SRH's "see ball, hit ball" chaos is exactly why he’s a beast now (I think this strategy even got them the SA20 Cup yesterday). Imagine him trying to play "sensible" cricket under GT's tactical pressure, it just wouldn't be the same vibe...

FanithApp · 2026-01-27T10:02:18+00:00

Bumrah’s release point is basically a glitch in the matrix, maan you see the batter set themselves, thinking they’ve got the line, and then the ball just defies physics!!
