And now they've broken a 11 year old streak and achieved one of biggest achievements in test cricket. Cricket is such a great leveller @TheAndroidFreak
Because we make out cricketers really great. Dravid, Laxman, and SRT dragged their careers way too much. MSD as well. Yuvraj as well. Raina as well. There was no good team selection post 2011 for a single position. Sehwag, Gambhir, Sachin, retired back to back. Zak carried on for too long. MSD overbowled Yadav in 2011-2012 series. We didn't have good third pacer. Rajasthan won back to back, still we didn't choose Pankaj Singh for Australia tour. We picked Vinay Kumar, who got thrashed at Perth I believe. 4-0,4-0 was written due to same. You tried Mukund, but you dropped Vijay. Vijay was favorite to get opening slot, post 2011, but Rahane opened Against England and later he dropped down the order. This is just total mess. Just before tour Dravid and Laxman retired. At such moments, how you can pick the team? Did you see Ronchi, Watling, Elliot, Ryder, Guptill again? That left hander opener as well? No. It doesn't happen in India. Gill wants to play middle order after opening in Australia and scoring 91 in his first series. Rahul wants to play in the middle order. Since 2019, Virat has hardly scored, but who gets dropped, Rahane and Pujara? Why? Because King cannot be dethroned. Pandya doesn't want to play red ball cricket. Injury to Pandya costed us WC. There were no back ups. Chahal sidelined for no reason. Hanuman Vihari dropped for no reason. Iyer dropped for no reason. Dhoni mentioned about ages of three people, made them retire. Age caught up on him and he got run out in semi finals of 2019 WC. Why this Kolvari di? We need transition immediately after BGT. No matter what's the result of BGT, select new squad for England ODI and England test series. Select swing bowlers atleast two. Bowlers like Umran Malik and his colleagues at J&K should be nurtured for South Africa and Australia tours. What we have? Harshit Rana and Nitish Reddy and injury prone, Prasidh Krishna. Doesn't work that way. Will never work that way. Its time to invest in new players.
