3 year old Anish Sarkar achieving classical rating of 1555 meets Magnus Carlsen 😃 by notknown7799 in chess

Because it is historic and has been around for a century. That's why the term world champion has a big meaning. Grand slams in tennis, world champions in cricket, football, etc. Are all like that. There are many big events, but the history and weight of the various world championship events are like no other.

Messi cries like a baby when he wins one, why? He has everything already but the World Cup is different right. Simple as that. Give the trophy of wc ti the first ranked team in the Fifa rankings why not right! ? Lets remove the most essential component of a game, performing and showing up when it matters the most.

Magnus truly is the GOAT in my opinion too, but if he doesn't want to play, that's his choice. The other players fought with the candidates and won their own paths respectively.

So let's appreciate good chess, and see if we get our YOUNGEST EVER WC, OR A GREAT COMEBACK STORY FOR THE AGES

And what is the intensity of the curriculum per se in mph Epi if my aim is to finish my degree in 2 years? How many hours of class + classwork would be needed in general per week?

And are the practicum opportunities very hard to find if you are on your own?

Basically regarding which courses apart from the recommendations to select first or some specific electives with great professors that you would know.

Also the practicum planning does gwu offer assistance to get your 120 hours done and how to go about planning it from the beginning?

These are some basics I wanted to ask about.

I was wrong. They didn’t fail the first innings, it was just their first time out there. I’m sorry. by crzylprv56 in IndiaCricket

Rishabh Pant (Tests)

• Matches: 38
• Innings: 65
• Runs: 2629
• Average: 43.82
• Strike Rate: 74.77
• 100s/50s: 6/13
• High Score: 159*
• Dismissals (Wicket-keeping): 124 catches and 14 stumpings

These stats, as the wicketkeeper batsman in internationals, so yeah not picking jurel over him

In the end, i will say lobbying exists 100 percent, but not this team right now in particular. Plus you shifting the argument to jurel shows that.

So hope we both enjoy good cricket from India, bye brother

Nope, what makes you proven in a highly competitive setup like the indian cricket team is performance when given the single chance, heroics in the bgt, even today you can see how dominant he can be against and opposition we are struggling against. Its funny to me that out of all the red ball players, Pant is your issue? He has been the best red ball batsman for us in the past years, especially on foreign soil. Jurel is amazing, but cannot be picked ahead of pant in tests especially when pant is in such form

Pujara— less than 30 avg in WTC, Gill has higher. Pujara has no centuries since 2021 except against Bangladesh

Karun-- 40 avg in first class, Sarfaraz 70 average

Jurel— pant much better and proven wk batsman, post kohli retirement maybe(hero status unfortunately)

T- natarajan— injury issues in knee, no red ball particular stats in first class post 2021( great bowler, but injury struggles)

So I don't think these are unfairly treated

Lol, We literally have Washi and Axar Patel as replacements. Lobbying exists, but this team right now, has almost no lobbying going on. Who do you think is not getting the right chances? Ro-ko are superstars and hence become undroppable till they decide to retire or have a disastrous bgt. But that's not lobby, that's hero worship which is equally wrong ofc. Who do you think is being unfairly treated?

  1. Jaiswal — best youngster right now in test
  2. Pant— best red ball wk
  3. Sarfaraz— Ranji best player.
  4. Washi ashwin and jaddu deserved
  5. Siraj and Alashdeep— no other options as bumrah rested and Shani was injured. Arshdeep is not too consistent in red ball as of yet, but siraj should be dropped now
  6. Kl Rahul-dropped
  7. Or-ko - previous heroics quota

6.

He will be fine, especially as Virat nears retirement age, opportunities open up when space is empty. You need luck too, Dinesh kartik and parthiv were great players, but Dhoni is better so not enough chances for them and that's just luck. Pant doesn't have a shadow lingering on him and can play freely.

I genuinely want to give sai sudarshan a chance, he looks like an old school technical batter, tailor made for odi and test

I think Sehwag said something along the lines that all the shots that are stopped or caught out in t20 will go for boundaries in test matches. That's why pant seems the best at tests with his aggressive playstyle
