This is a story of one of the greatest and one of the emotional test wins for Indian cricket team! It’s a story about the highest chase that happened till today on Indian soil. This is a story which shows cricket can bring the nation together in tougher times. This is a story of

non-csk matches hardly creating any entertainment value beyond cricketing interest (except few). they all look like fillers. can't imagine ipl's hype after ms dhoni. there will be a massive dip in viewership after he leaves. ms dhoni is the nucleus of brand ipl.

Why the hell does these journalists put Rohit and Virat in one bracket is beyond me! Virat in every format overall is way higher than Rohit and by saying this I don’t want to disrespect Sharma, just Kohli’s league is different to Sharma’s.
Will 2023 mark the start of an end for Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma in the T20Is? 🥹

March 2008, India was playing CB series in Australia and Sachin Tendulkar scored one of the greatest 100 in 1st finals and that day there was another game going on , Ind v SA under 19 finals , under a young, aggressive captain Virat Kohli. That’s the first time world saw him.

1. During the 2017 BGT, Aussies had won the first test in Pune and were dominating the 2nd test too and then Pujara played an incredible innings of 90 runs by stitching an important partnership with Rahane which helped India level the series.

22

He followed up with a 200 in Ranchi, during which he rattled Aussie bowlers. That innings is still the longest by an Indian batter in-terms of balls faced. This innings was the start of Pujara mentally , physically exhausting Aussie bowlers.

Like they call Runout as Mankad, they should also call Ball tampering as Smith or Warner and if a batsman doesn’t walk , it should be called Broady!

Now that there are questions on Pujara’s career and rightly so, his favourite series and opposition waits to prove his worth and make India win 4th BGT in a row.

2. During the tour of Australia in 2018, Indian top order was in deep trouble in the first test in Adelaide and Pujara stood tall in that by scoring an incredible 100 on the first day of the series and he set the tone for team India in the series.

It was 2005, I was in my 5th standard, one day when I returned from my school my father told me that there’s this long haired wicket keeper who has scored 148 against Pakistan. And , during those days Indian wicketkeeper hitting 100 was something new,little(1)

And at the Gabba, we saw the physically strong side of Pujara where he endured blows after blows by scoring a valuable 50 and sticking with Gill and then Pant who scripted a memorable win in down-under. This was 3rd BGT win , 2 away series wins in a row for team India.

When Kohli was out of form I used to think “What’s a cricketing tragedy for a guy in the peak of his powers who played and saved Ranji match after his father passed away at the age of 18”. Congratulations my man on your 15 years in International cricket. Keep the runs flowing,

He followed up with a 50 in the second innings and at the MCG he was back at his favourite job which was to rattle Aussie bowlers by scoring an incredible 100. He made sure Aussie bowlers were exhausted , and that looked true in the next at SCG where score an incredible 190.

3. His contributions in 2020-21 BGT may not be seen in numbers or stats but his contributions were immense in the SCG test where he stitched an incredible partnership with Pant. At one point, India looked like chasing the target but nevertheless India managed to draw the test.

This has to be one of the incredible stats, Kohli might be out of form now , but this type of consistent run comes to only few. Even if we doesn’t return to form, he will always remain the king of the modern era. Hoping he returns to the peak and shuts everyone.

DYK, When Southee made his debut Stuart Broad had played 2 tests and now Broad has 566 wickets in 159 tests and Southee has 350 wickets in 89 tests. This vast difference is due to the amount of test cricket England plays and Newzealand doesn’t.

Wankhede not hosting a high profile series is disrespect in itself. Wankhede is always buzzing on every day of the test and also the pitch is very good. The point is valid for Bangalore and Kolkata as well. Could’ve added chepauk but it has few issues with a stand.
