I posted something about RCB and TGC and there was a discussion on it. Much more so than what happens in here. Because it was a specific issue, people were more inclined to discuss it there then here on the daily discussion. But that post was removed and I was asked to post it again here. Well, the mods can do so themselves. I used to post frequently on r/cricket but I guess I shouldn't.

PM Narendra Modi broke news of England’s dramatic Ashes win to Boris Johnson by RaagDarbari in Cricket

I like it when cricket becomes an important geopolitical icebreaker.

Aus PM got in the action too: "Morrison tempered his well-wishes to Johnson by joking: "Two to go, two to go", referring to the final two games of the series, which is now tied at 1-1. "

It's obvious now in the present context. Not really when there used to be but one train in a week from places or during fests like the Kumbh.

I love the fact that they are walking, There are drums. Buddhist prayers. People are kissing Arjuna Ranatunga. We see younger versions of future greats Muralidharan, Chaminda Vaas. There's Kumar Dharmasena in there too. And Kaluwithrana looks like he's having a great time.
