Re: Cricket

A few moments here and there would have swung the match.

Curran was impressive...left arm is good for England because all their current crop is similar bowlers.

I don’t mind the loss. 5 match is a long series.

Re: Cricket

habit...its hard to overcome..the amount of t20s and odis you play where these shots are instinctive and muscle memory

see ball, hit ball - worked for sehwag, but he was able to intimidate and demoralize bowlers. the others have to learn to leave until they get sure of conditions

Re: Cricket

great bowling from ashwin..and shami as well.

hardik is adequate...would be good if he can pick a wicket now and then instead of just giving rest for the others.

something off with umesh..why he 's not with regular runup? looked different

Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - 2 (Mar 2018 - )

choksi may get extradited. politically this will be a big boost and a good precedence for us as well, although antigua is a small country and not the UK. Just the fact that we can chase and get an economic offender is good.

Not all bills will pass in RS and not all bills will fail in RS as well, due to an imaginary opposition unity. Amit Shah moved to RS to manage the RS situation. RS is not going to change till June 2019 as nobody's term is expiring till then Assam 2 on June, including MMS. (Would like to see this dum...

Cohen is flipping, looks like. Hiring Clinton loyalist, releasing tape, saying country and family comes first etc were all hinting at it.

Dubey is correct. Bjp is a cadre driven party. Jaitley and sushma are lightweights here and gadkari too, despite having served as party chief. Gadkari performance then and gadkari performance now as a minister clearly shows what he is good at. All this ‘alternates for modi’ were indulged in a lot be...

One cannot blame the SC as it is just going to look at it from gender equality angle. It is going to be a judgement that will be only on paper.
