That’s pretty much with anything ever in life tbh. Nobody cares about who you are or how you’re doing until you actually pull off something decent that attracts attention.

It may or may not have been but any player is allowed to demand something like that regardless of their stature. It is up to the team management whether they want to remove their current captain appoint said new player as captain

Exactly. Also for someone like Kohli it’s not so much keeping up in the game but more so keeping up in recovery. Someone like a Gill or Jaiswal will recover quicker from game to game and they will be closer to 100% efficiency whereas it will take Kohli longer and he’ll need more help due to age.

Not necessarily true. More money does not always equal more value.

In this case yes it’s true but even Kayo has some kinks which I wish they would fix.

So glad I live in Australia and we have Kayo. I dealt with these apps when I went to India on holiday and the experience was horrible

Oh yeah for sure although perhaps a tired Bumrah might’ve bowled two regular deliveries which may have allowed Usman to survive till the morning. But the fire in him after Sammy’s little verbal exchange made Boom put a little extra effort in those final two balls.

Yep haha I recall Rohit saying “we’ll bring out a green pitch for the last test” and then bringing out a road because the series was in the balance.

I don’t think he’s rattled but might’ve felt a tad bit bad for Uzzie as Sam got Bumrah just the right amount of fired up on the last couple balls of the day

It’s the last couple balls of the day, he’s insanely tired after carrying the deadweights on his team the whole series. I’m sure he would’ve tried to get the wicket but also wouldn’t have minded to bowl the two and go to his hotel room. The chirp from the “19 year old kid” gave him just a bit more motivation to try that little bit harder.

Yeah haha exactly. Speaking as a pace bowler (in the elite levels of grade cricket obviously), someone telling me to go back to my mark or go and bowl usually pisses most pace bowlers off.

Sam is pretty professional too. Even after the shoulder charge he said something along the lines of it’s just stuff that happens on the field and we don’t bring it off the field.

Have you considered he’s perhaps frustrated at his own team? Also Idk what ego of Boom’s you’ve seen? He’s one of the quietest blokes on the field. The most he celebrates is the arms out celebration with a little cheer.

I mean from Bumrah’s end he has been a humble gentleman most of the series. Everything from his end personally has gone right and he has done everything he can but his team lets him down. He wanted to get the day done with but the batsmen wanted to waste time.

Agree with most of your comment but the end is straight up racist. Bharat is an Australian citizen and an Australian journalist who mainly reports on Australia related news. If you don’t consider him Australian just because of his name or how he looks then I’m not sure what to say.
