"With the ball, we didn't turn up today." : Rohit Sharma.
The biggest truth is we have been playing T20 cricket with a template as good as an ODI template from the 90s.
Honestly, we need to do an immense deep dive into the methodology of how he need to access our T20 game.

As an Indian fan, when team travels down under, you see your batsman often get beaten all ends up
Then a 20 yr old kid debuts & does the same to one of greatest batsman in opposition
What a joy it was back then watching you

Huge respect for you, Umyaaa.โค๏ธ
Hits some beautiful inside out lofted sixes, fields like a hungry tiger on the field, hits wickets with pinpoint accuracy & turns his golden arm to break partnerships too. You name it, he does it. A Wonderful Team Player to the Core!

Caddick prior to the match : ๐ฎ๐ณ shouldn't take pride in scoring 300 against Namibia. They were aided more by the nimble-fingered Namibians than their batting strength. Even Sachin did not play well despite his century.

Zak Paaji, on your day, you could do wonders with the bat too!
Four sixes off four balls in the last over of an ODI vs. Zim in Dec 2000!
He came in with a lot of promise. His nippy run-up & the way he executed his outswingers was such a treat, developed a good inswinger as well. His batting was a real bonus.
Adelaide '03 shall always remain very very special :)
