Abhishek and Vaibhav are hitting sixes with such ease and abandon that fours feel like underachieving, a disappointment #Abhishek #Vaibhav @pra0902 @SunilWarrier1

Abhishek and Vaibhav have settled a 20 over game in 20 balls #Abhishek #Vaibhav #TeamIndia #MenInBlue @pra0902 @SunilWarrier1 @RandomCricketP1

Full marks to Gambhir for not being mulish about Vaibhav batting at 3. Also, the coach should get the credit for fully backing Nitish Reddy, who has now shaped into a fine all rounder #Gambhir #Nitish #Vaibhav @pra0902 @SunilWarrier1

Abhishek Sharma made batting look like a video game in Wellington today #Abhishek #AbhishekSharma @pra0902 @SunilWarrier1

In the post-match interview, Abhishek soundly praised Vaibhav. It shows a generous side to the Punjab hurricane. The two players complement each other on the pitch. Together, they inject the fear factor in bowlers. #Abhishek #Vaibhav @pra0902 @SunilWarrier1

It is a difficult decision to take on Samson especially with Kishan too in the form of his life. When Samson was kept out, there were questions. When Samson has to kept out for Suryavanshi, there are questions. Perhaps rotation is best, even with Abhishek

Agarkar created the problem by paratrooping Shreyas into the T20 lineup as captain. Abhishek, Vaibhav, Ishan, Sanju (c) and Tilak can be a great top 5. Now the conundrum can be resolved either by rotation or change in captaincy.

How does it feel to be controversially given out for 199? Devdutt Paddikal found out against NZ A today. India A have responded well to the situation in the second innings #DevduttPadikkal #Padikkal #INDAvNZA @pra0902 @SunilWarrier1

Shreyas will seldom score difficult runs when India really needs it. His slow starts means when he gets out, the game becomes harder for others to chase. And that he is captain means, he can't be dropped. #Shreyas #ShreyasIyer @pra0902

Game awareness. Finishing skills under pressure. 51 not out off 26. Tilak Varma is everything that Shreyas Iyer is unlikely to ever be. #TilakVarma #ShreyasIyer #MenInBlue @pra0902

An explosive finish (42 off 15) by Naman Dhir and a super knock by Sanju Samson help India pull off a record chase. In Dhir, India have found a great late order finisher. Just remember, though dropped, Shreyas couldn't finish the game #NZvsIND #NamanDhir @pra0902 @SunilWarrier1

What Shreyas said about Vaibhav in press con amounts to this: he won't play on this tour, he is here to gain experience for future tour. That's how a paratrooped captain encourages world's most talked about & premium batting talent. Wow! #Shreyas #Vaibhav @pra0902 @SunilWarrier1

Our future lies in past. That's the selectors' message for ODIs. This is a team where the best are past their prime. And the young nowhere close to their prime. What do you feel? #TeamIndia #MenInBlue #Kohli #Gill #Shubman #Gambhir #Agarkar @pra0902 @SunilWarrier1

Deepti Sharma is India's player for all seasons & every reason. Today she bailed out India from 19/4 with a superb 49 off 37 vs Zim. In debutant Niki Prasad, 39 n.o, the team has found a special talent with great temperament. #DeeptiSharma #NikiPrasad @pra0902 @SunilWarrier1

Test cricket is running on empty. Spectators have largely stayed away from the riveting Test between SAfrica and Aus in Durban. The truth is that the much maligned T20 subsidises it in most countries #SAvsAUS @pra0902 @SunilWarrier1
