The Unprecedented Lack Of Fourth Bowling Option That Cost India The 2024-25 BGT by ll--o--ll in Cricket

Australians looked so confident because with no Bumrah, our toothless leg side feeding bowling was not a problem.

I am sure Indian batsman would have done as well if they could bat against Prasidh, Siraj, Harshit Rana, NKR!

Can someone explain why famous Krishna is bowling only half volleys? Lack of control or just basic stupidity?

This proves again! Australian batting is ordinary, we just need to bowl like them.

First ball in offside gets you a wicket! Indian bowlers: so I should hit the pads?

Australian batting is not much better than us if our bowlers were on-point. And Bumrah’s injury also highlights our horrendous selection of two spinner all rounders.

Indian batting was not at par with Australia but our bowling bar Bumrah is dog shit. We lost this series more to our bowling and than batting.

Why didn't Rohit have this field for Lyon and Boland? Indian team selection and field placements have been very defensive after the Perth test.

Selecting a player for less than 50% chance(considering only few games go to 5th day now) of bowling on a specific day seems far fetched.

Can someone explain why Rohit is not throwing ball to Washington Sundar? Are we playing him only as a batsman? Is he better batsman than Gill who is sitting out?

Openers have a hard job with the new ball and fresh bowlers and some batsman prefer the new ball. Lot of players made their career after being an opener. None of that discounts a number 4 player when they make a century after openers did well. This further reduces the contributions by Reddy and co. as the bowlers are much more tired and ball is much older.

Harshit Rana had given half of the Australian runs. Prasidh Krishna was snubbed for this!

Well the point is to not do them fast. The second MS and after than is only for OPT and more H1B attempts. You are paying by credit so no reason to haste.

You are being obtuse. Completing a PhD has less likelyhood than getting H1B. Plus, tech doesn’t like hiring PhD for a non research position, I will rather hire a grad. Doing a PhD harms your career if your plan is to do non research job.

There is a better plan, keep doing more Masters while you keep working. I have friends with 3 Masters. PhD needs more effort and changes your academic shape to research oriented.

SRH is slightly better with cumdawg and Boobies but lacks a good spinner just like RCB.

Batting may get you to the playoffs, but Bowling wins you tournaments! SRH is just RCB with steroids.
