🏏Australia vs India, 3rd Test: Brisbane, 14 - 18 Dec 2024, Day 5 🏏 - Page 71

Jasprit Bumrah's stellar form, averaging 11.25 runs per wicket, highlights his value ahead of IPL 2025, where he could be a game-changer for his franchise. Similarly, his performances set a benchmark for bowlers in PSL 2025, emphasizing the importance of strike bowlers in T20 leagues.

Would have loved to see him skipping the entire ipl and reserve all his energy for international cricket! Thats a different matter though..

I don't understand why people are hating head so much, like why?? Our batsmen can't perform that's their fault, they need to practice more, work hard to reach the level where they can win, but no they are so busy in their personal lives that they don't think it's important to work, please take retirement if you can't balance your work and personal life, more than them their PR is working hard to prove how VK is better than all the cricketers in the world, how RS is better than MSD and VK, and other things, what I don't understand is why did they select VK in the team?? He is busy living in London, is he doing any practice there or what?? All we can see the video of him promoting brands, romaing in the streets of London proving how they are better than Indians, and doing other things but not the one which gave him this much fame and power, and same goes with RS, as a captain he should atleast practice some hours a day but I don't see him doing that and anything else?? And you can't point this out cause their fanbase is so toxic that they will stoop to the level of personal attack while defending their so called idols, like you can blame and hate head and Cummins and entire Australian team but won't point out how it is the fault of our batsmen, okay you can not be in form all the time but you are not doing anything to get in form as well, if you are not playing any game then you won't practice as well

Kids felt the same in 2003. Pakis feel the same about kohli and Sachin and Dhoni.

India team need to do practice, even play domestic matches if they have to, but seems like they are too proud or too busy in personal life.

Didn't read the essay but IF you ask me then this is nothing. Express yourself fully. Don't hold back. This is cricket. And its fiery and passionate. Yahan politically correct hone ka koi Matlab nahi hai.

I have seen so many videos where VK fans claim that people hate him as a captain cause he hasn't win any trophy but that's not true, real cricket fans love Kane Williamson as a captain even though he doesn't have any glorious personal records like VK, it's not about records but about game whenever Williamson plays you can see his intent, he is not into record making but doing his duty, which is opposite to what kohli does, he plays for records

Ashwin played TNPL during the breaks i guess. But he is not a very great fielder.

If he had scored well in the 2nd test like Jadeja, maybe they would have played him till the last match.

well said Kusum. RS and VK just need to retire, then only selectors will stop selecting them. Bumrah can be made captain. Jurel should get chance etc.

India team need to do practice, even play domestic matches if they have to, but seems like they are too proud or too busy in personal life.

So while we are at it, I would say that nowadays cricket doesn't matter to anyone cricketers do.

They are so busy in earning money and getting rich and about playing they have left it on their PRs

well said Kusum well said. VK is a great player but he focuses too much on family and brand and records that not many respect him like Kane or other cricketers for example

Yes true. Now he will go back to London and land one day before IPL starts.

In Australia also he is leading a life similar to England.
