Bruno. 💔 Big brown melting eyes. 4831 days of them staring at the world, making everyone who stared back long enough fall in love with him. On October 31, those eyes were closed forever. The goodest boy who ever lived. The most pure-hearted creature I’ve ever met in life.

You're either disingenous or have a very poor grasp of English. I never suggested ENG should care for India milestones. England acted like they had sole right to decide when to end play & when other team didn't play ball, threw a hissy fit. Classic entitled, spoilt brat behaviour

Can't believe you'd grudge two batters in their 80s the chance (that they have every right to make use of) to get to their hundreds, when they've worked their absolute backsides off to get to this point.

Comparison of batting averages across the two periods: 1 Jan 2000 to 31 Dec 2005 Overall: 31.36 Top 7: 37.72 Top 6: 38.88 Top 5: 40.13 1 Jan 2020 to present Overall: 28.77 Top 7: 34.31 Top 6: 34.83 Top 5: 35.33 Batting is *DEFINITELY* harder now than it was 20-25 years back.

Only ones part of ATG convos in these are Waqar, Shoaib, Akram, Kumble, Donald, Pollock, McGrath, Warne, Murali, Walsh, Ambrose. That's 11. Of those, from 2000 to 2005: Ambrose played just 10 Tests. Akram & Donald 13 each. Walsh 20, Shoaib 26, Waqar 29. Twice as hard? Really?

Everyone who's outraged/outraging, let me save you some angst: Think of boycotts like groceries. They come every day, there's plenty of variety to cater to every taste, and most importantly, they come with an expiry date. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

Team B's bowling has four guys who will be in an all-time India Test squad. Team A has only 2. I'd give the batting edge to Team A, but not enough to overcome Team B's bowling advantage.

Eat your vitamins Say your prayers... and don't be a racist, manipulative, unethical, selfish chap.

Rishabh Pant has not only helped India add 35 extra runs during the time he was at the crease with a broken foot - he's also made England bowl 11 more overs. Sensational performance on one leg. #INDvsENG

"A Rishabh Pant innings is the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle. You can either know what he’s going to score off the next ball – or what shot he’s going to play. But you can’t know both. Not until the event is past." For @livemint a couple of days back: livemint.com/sports/rishabh…

You've heard a LOT about his release point. But in my latest for Cricinfo, I study the magic of Bumrah's release whip. How it gives him seam, swing, and bounce. Using advanced data, this explores a legendary bowler like no one has before. Have a read! espncricinfo.com/story/how-bumr…

Nitish Kumar Reddy ruled out of rest of England tour. Sad development. Hope he recovers soon. He definitely has the potential to be a member of India's starting XI in all three formats. #INDvENG cricbuzz.com/cricket-news/1…
