India then on the verge of possibly losing a game that they would have been backed to win on the fourth day … difference in the teams ? … the Rishabh Pant run out in the first … Jaiswal brain fade in the second … the Archer Stokes show especially the latter, absolutely lion.

An endeavour that began the year before last … fiercely contested … great talent and keeps the youth engaged and riveted … cricket a real passion in Kashmir … maybe it’s time for ⁦@BCCI⁩ to think of a league for the UT … would be a rage am sure ⁦@TinyDhillon⁩

RT @SpencerGuard:

Save a moment too for India’s speedsters especially when all the talk before the match was about who’s not playing … Siraj and Akashdeep outstanding in their spirit and commitment … after Leeds we said you need to take 20 wickets to win a game … well here you are … take a bow.

So while you can bazball, test cricket will also require you to knuckle down every now and then … the poms have been shown to be inadequate in that area … didn’t even try and save the game especially when they knew that there wasn’t a chance at victory … The Men in Blue every.

Interesting to watch how England so habituated to batting only in the fourth gear makes the adaptation to save the game … thus far the top order has shown itself to be ill equipped … if India gets past the defence of Stokes they’ll probably go all the way @kirpy6.

The Indian skipper in the midst of a dream run … joins a very elite list of a double and a hundred in the same test … the responsibility is sitting well on him … India though needs to back itself to insert England now and go for the jugular … good opportunity to square the.

India going big now just as they should have at Leeds but couldn’t … skipper’s hand by Shubhman and by becoming only the third Indian to get a double hundred in England, he’s also putting the naysayers of his batting to rest … hopefully the bowlers will come to the party to put.

RT @KhubaibMir_VoY: I am a Kashmiri. I live in #Kashmir. And I have a clear message for Pakistan Army Chief Gen. Asim Munir:.Your obsession….

Another edition of the Championships commences tomorrow … the two here, certainly contenders in my view notwithstanding recent results … Wimbledon though is another arena … one where rallies likely to be shorter and hence comparably lesser focus on the physical grind … hence.

Almost an inevitability about India’s bowling and a reflection of the times that we lost a test match despite scoring more than 800 runs across two innings and five centuries … so today you have to continue to dominate in the good periods … late order collapses in both innings.

and then Rishabh Pant … what can you say to such brilliance, such handling of game situations, such outstanding temperament … joins a rare list of wicketkeepers with hundreds in both innings of a test … a even rarer one of half a dozen Indians with centuries in either inning.

Ninth Test Hundred for KL Rahul … eight of these outside India including in SENA … his third in England … measured against any standard that has to be creditable … has batted where asked to in the batting order and yet sometimes gets the short shrift … a second innings.

Tons for Jaiswal, Gill and Pant in the first test sans RoKo, a traditionally bowler friendly Headingley, seems like a perfect transition … Gill’s debut test as skipper too and it’s like a 🍒 on the 🎂… yet early days and miles to go before we can call this a settled middle.

Mind and body wellness … no better time to remember and do than on Yoga Day … even in far and remote places of duty

This is a champion rare … they said that he always finds a way when confronted … he did one more time last night … just pure childlike joy when he got it done … the human side; 22 and five grand slams already @ghaishar @savvyghai @anirudh0sharma @head3hunter.

Bracing now … Alcaraz vs Sinner … the level that these two could reach on the red clay at RG 25 knows no limits … we are going to see a lot more of this and today could well set the tone for times to follow @head3hunter @Gen_RajShukla @kirpy6 @savvyghai.

This is indeed nostalgic Sastry ji … 10 May 1990 and a proud privilege for me to be part of the history of the Kumaon Regiment, my home for the last 36 years … wonderful memories from times past 🙏.

Ravinder ji Tithwal and the Sharda Temple are the most remarkable of places on the Line of Control … what you have done there with your band of local brothers is unparalleled and has firmly put Karnah on the pilgrim and tourist map for ever … hope to return soon @savvyghai.
