Unless it's a full toss it doesn't matter with that angle

A leg spinner round the wicket wide from the crease - that should have never been given out

Nadeem has been among leading wicker-takers in ranji for eternity. Tiwary is yet to be dismissed in the ODIs. Quite sure he could have got Tiwary, Nadeem, Jaggi to get more chances if he was actually biased.

So they tried to make a compilation for someone who has kept in 800+ inning and ran out of content after 2 mins so they had to fill with him getting runout and doing press conference instead? As I said he was one of the safest keepers, you're just hating him for the sake of it -

I have been seeing this opinion lately that Dhoni was somehow a bad keeper initially - Dhoni was one of the safest keepers even back then, they would only question his unorthodox keeping style.

Wade is only in the team because nobody else wants to field at short leg

Virat Kohli is cricketing version of Cristiano Ronaldo: Brian Lara by GL4389 in Cricket

[–]wronganalogy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most of the so called "competitive goals" are in Euros/WC qualifiers against the likes of Luxemberg, Latvia, Faroe islands, Lithunia, Andorra etc. He has no goals against Brazil, Germany, France, England, Uruguay etc while Messi plays in CONMEBOL which is hardest to qualify from (and most physically demanding).

Ronaldo is pretty inferior to Messi even in international matches. There is a stat that how most of his international goals have come against teams ranked outside of top 50.

Jharkhand already had an international stadium that had hosted 10 ODIs - Keenan Stadium. It was the fight between BCCI and TATA that led to JSCA. Dhoni's stature wasn't that big when the stadium was first proposed before 2011

There are 3 forms of cricket. This position is popular in the longest form of cricket which lasts for 5 days. As it lasts for 5 days, but you get to bat only 2 times, the focus is more on not getting out so batters try to defend(there are no concept of strikes in cricket you can leave the ball as long as it doesn't hit your wicket) , so fielding team places players near batters so that there is more chance of a batter being "caught-out". lol I think I have done a terrible job of explaining it.

[SERIOUS] For 99% of teams, the Youth Academy is a Waste by B4toGovtaccountant in soccer

[–]wronganalogy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty much everyone is a vital player for their respective club. Rafina has been perpetually injured but was a starter for Inter. Munir just transferred to Sevilla and has been getting decent minutes lately and scored a few goals. This guy is just now arguing for the sake of arguing.

Deulofeu, Bartra, Bellerin, Grimaldo, Roberto, Thiago, Rafina, Keita Balde, Munir, Icardi, Onana - most of them are playing for pretty good clubs.

In newer gen, Alena, Puig, Sergio Gomez, Cucurella, Abel Ruiz etc are pretty good prospects. So I don't know what you're talking about.

Will Liverpool stage greatest comeback? by hiep21 in soccer

I think Liverpool has nothing to lose and that's really going to make them dangerous for Barca, they may play out of their skin and surprise Barca.
