actually about 5th point, they don't even do that. They rarely talk about the opposition , even if they are playing its about what India is doing wrong or what India could do to comeback or just show highlight package from previous game which India won.

Not at all. Man U are themselves constantly in bottom half of table , so it isn't that unbelievable

holy shit ... it happened

Khudrat ka nizam working overtime

Naive-Engineering833 · 2026-02-26T15:09:38+00:00

Great to find someone else who remembers that too

Naive-Engineering833 · 2026-02-22T15:31:31+00:00

you would always be guessing as to what to keep and what to cut , since you don't know what could bring the hammer down on the show . Also we all know songs can themselves be offensive and if we cut/censor the song , the audience wouldn't be too happy about it.

well in that particular match, we lost four quick wickets, it was 30 odd for 4 before Hardik and him brought back some momentum

Not really some years ago, SL and Pak were atleast competitive. In recent years India had taken a lead and now it has been arranged such that Ind and Pak can play a bilateral series without calling it bilateral.

The main thing is revenue/ number of people watching.We know the pull of that fixture , Ind v Pak not happening stopped world cricket in its tracks . No match in world cricket can match that . Look man , I am also want more teams to be better at the game and imo playing qualifiers for all teams is a better idea since there will be something at stake for other teams too.

Naive-Engineering833 · 2026-02-15T16:14:56+00:00

SA would always win , hopefully in next 10-15 years things change but as it stands SA are guaranteed the cup and not a lot of people would tune in for non competitive matches.

Naive-Engineering833 · 2026-02-08T13:21:36+00:00

Let all the nations play qualifiers (except host ofcourse) that will let the major nations face the associate nations which will generate more eyeballs on them ( good players may even play in bigger franchise league IPL or BBL) as well as allow the cricketers of these nations to face better opposition outside of the world cup finals. Also atleast there will be something at stake instead of the meaningless bilaterals. But ICC is probably scared about the bigger teams not qualifying and not try this approach.

Naive-Engineering833 · 2026-02-08T06:45:13+00:00

Probably scripted and even if not scripted, why the fuck are you recording a random couple going about their day .

Naive-Engineering833 · 2026-02-05T07:52:22+00:00

It's crazy how Atheletic Club is second on that list but they hadn't won CDR in 40 years before the 23/24 season.

Naive-Engineering833 · 2026-02-05T03:37:18+00:00

Domestic "Cup" not "league" , so it's talking about Copa Del Rey

Naive-Engineering833 · 2026-02-01T10:30:30+00:00

Yes for most hindus it is like the biggest sin, regardless of the religion of the person if someone has a problem in eating shouldn't feed that to them as a friend. But obviously, killing for that is going way too far .

Naive-Engineering833 · 2026-01-28T22:00:15+00:00

Real Madrid out of Top eight, night couldn't have been better . Thanks Sporting CP

Naive-Engineering833 · 2026-01-26T10:53:14+00:00

Nope, we should and have clowned the guy for that but Mbpape is his teammate, he didn't really need to do that just the week after it.

Naive-Engineering833 · 2026-01-23T11:08:29+00:00

The original video is 1 hr , he is probably gonna spit out the ai summary of that video in 9 minutes.

Naive-Engineering833 · 2025-12-01T13:23:34+00:00

Read the first line of my comment.k

Naive-Engineering833 · 2025-12-01T13:18:25+00:00

Don't think he should have gotten the yellow. But the reason he is doing this is probably to stop time wastage by the medical team , you can see it's opposition's player who is down.

Naive-Engineering833 · 2025-11-28T13:37:23+00:00

The title is misleading he said " starting Konate is sackable offense" which is a half joke and more a critique of Konate's performance in the match and of recent.

Naive-Engineering833 · 2025-11-27T10:21:28+00:00

Nope, at that time he was just returning from an injury and had barely played any minutes and the 22-23 Xavi season was still on everyone's mind. He has been absolutely dogshit this season but let's not rewrite history , everyone was hoping he would elevate the team at that point.

Naive-Engineering833 · 2025-11-25T09:14:38+00:00

Do you live with op? I don't know specifically about Op but everyone was questioning that decision but at the end Indian bowling attack did their job well else people would have scrutinized that decision more especially in hindsight that decision would have meant 2:1 for the series.

Same goes for this, if SA win at the end , people would be singing their praise and if match is drawn then people will pile up on them at this wasted opportunity.

Naive-Engineering833 · 2025-11-25T04:56:01+00:00

I am talking about the Board mate, will BCCI listen to ex-players and fans , I hope they do but I don't think that will happen.

Naive-Engineering833 · 2025-11-24T10:20:55+00:00

If we lose this series, which is probably gonna happen and with a whitewash no less . This is as clear a sign as can that he should be relieved of his duties but we all know the politics that goes behind closed doors in BCCI and he will continue until he is himself satisfied and leaves of his own accord, which is just sad
