    "I dont understand the sharing the trophy during a draw thing? Didn't one of the teams simply hit more boundaries? Seems weird to see an England team sharing a trophy".

              was a good series of cricket but by fuck didn't both sides go out of their way to prove how genuinely unlikable they are?

                    Probably because India crushed that stat across the series.

                      I don't get the Stokes hate. Him and McCullum (both kiwis ...) have inspired this team to greater heights than the sum of their parts probably deserve. He gives 100% in every single game, which does get him lauded somewhat perhaps more than he deserves, but isn't that what every single sports team wants in their Captain?

                      He's my son's hero, and honestly, I can't see a lot what wrong with that.

                        He’s pretty overrated as a player but capable of big moments, very selfless and seems like a good guy who plays the game the right way most of the time.

                          Was someone taking the piss out of the boring hundred earlier this year? 22.5k at the oval tonight for an absolute cracker.

                          In the early round robin.

                            Incredible win, 102 needed from the last 40.

                            103 scored from the last 29.

                                  https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/west-indies-in-india-2025-26-1479561/india-vs-west-indies-1st-test-1479569/full-scorecard

                                  Predictable hiding here and Jadeja having a match and a half. Statistically ( with batting and bowling averages of 38 and 25 respectively ) he's up there with the absolute best all rounders of all time ( although the bowling stats are certainly inflated MASSIVELY by playing on Indian pitches so often )

                                  Just ten runs away from the 4000/300 double. Brilliant player. Only Kallis beats him in terms of modern players in my opinion......home and away bowling stats of 20 and 36 will always raise questions though.

                                  Windies as expected completely outclassed, they have a couple of excellent pace bowlers, vaguely promising all rounders but that's about it. Woeful top order. They will get murdered in NZ later this year.

                                    India pick the same team.

                                    They're crushing the Windies again, but I wonder about their selections.

                                    Jaiswal, KL Rahul, Sundarsan and Shubman as specialist batsmen

                                    Jadeja, Durel, Reddy and Washington as allrounders.

                                    Kuldeep, Jasprit and Siraj as specialist bowlers.

                                    Lots of bowling, a couple of keepers - the batting looks a bit light against the best teams.

                                          India pick the same team.

                                          They're crushing the Windies again, but I wonder about their selections.

                                          Jaiswal, KL Rahul, Sundarsan and Shubman as specialist batsmen

                                          Jadeja, Durel, Reddy and Washington as allrounders.

                                          Kuldeep, Jasprit and Siraj as specialist bowlers.

                                          Lots of bowling, a couple of keepers - the batting looks a bit light against the best teams.

                                          It’s only the Windies
