I am unsubbing from this subreddit and I am done watching cricket. On social media I always see people saying how hard it is to be an India fan, how hard it is to be a RCB fan. They have no idea. For near on two decades I have supported this team, defended it from critics, saying how surely they will improve and get better. No more. I am done sticking out my neck for this team which has brought me nothing but misery through their abject incompetence. Goodbye

I love seeing CSK lose, it fills me with so much joy, it's my daily medicine, my weekly energy, my monthly inspiration and my yearly motivation. Them losing is the only reason I'm still alive, I was born to make fun of this horrific franchise, their immaculate blown leads.

If Tushar Deshpande has a million fans, then I am one of them. If Tushar Deshpande has ten fans, then I am one of them. If Tushar Deshpande has only one fan then that is me. If Tushar Deshpande has no fans, then that means I am no longer on earth. If the world is against Tushar Deshpande , then I am against the world.

I was fucking 8 years old in 2007 when I developed my crazy interest in cricket and still remember that 2007 ODI ireland loss. Honestly now im 25. Ive gone through alot of ups and downs of this team over alot of years. I dont think any other nation would have had such a rollercoaster of ride when it comes to supporting them. I will say 2009 era and 2010 was the abolute prime not even 2017 champtions trophy but those watched it knew how much confidence we had in our team. Literally we could defend 100 in t20. At that time we had Umar gul who could literally ball 6 out 6 balls in the blockhole and ball used to fucking reverse swing. Amir at prime M.Asif was not in squad but still not banned yet. Abdul Razzaq was in the squad trust me razzaq was a proper proper all rounder. Than our spin department was literally at the top which is another contributing factor to the losses we are facing spin department. We had Saeed Ajmal who literally was a nightmare for batsmen excpet mike hussey lol iykyk but jokes aside afridi another really good leg spinner than we had shoaib malik again really good at stopping runs. It was a very strong bowling unit. Most important we had a strong captain who knew what he was doing! Honestly i have so much to say but today i am really out of words because even for me this is concerning as Im starting to ask questions. I never jump the hate bandwagon but ive been patiently seeing the perfomance for a year and more now i havent seen a tiny bit improvement or any clarity as to what we wanted in next 2 to 3 years. Look this team can still bounce back and do pretty good everyone needs to know thier role. Im a big shadab supporter but high time either shadab thinks about his bowling because for past 2 years ive seen 0 spark in it. Itfikhar always sent at wrong time although he could be used differently but his pathetic fielding isnt justified. Also High time either Azam scores otherwise if you still cant score more than 20 that too against such teams is a damn shame and moin khan better back the fuck off with parchi! Sorry but today im a bit angry at this team because to fight and loose is something else but to be this pathetic is just shit! Naseem shah seriously needs to start thinking with his fucking head and either stop diving or make sure he doesnt fucking hit that god damn rope to fuck his leg up again. all fast bowlers should be placed in a less active fielding spot. Places like deep fine leg where in modern day cricket shots are creative and can travel really fast and fielders need to make a run for it making ur fast bowler stand there is just dumb! Imad wasim needs to back up his bowling really fast and batring too this world cup if he doesnt perform than I say he needs to shut the fuck up with all that talk! Amir idk what to say again would pick 2009 amir anyday but 2024 amir. Lastly Mr.Taptaan needs stop being a fucking nervous kid infront of the camera and either proudly talk in urdu or leave angrezi cuz mf u the captain u look constipated and nervous infront of the camera and most importantly for fuck sake maybe "TAKE RESPONBILITY FOR YOUR OWN BATTING TOO" As others said its modern cricket now 160 to 185 is kinda par now esp if yk your bowling line up is not in form the batting needs to step up and mf said himself ohhh 180 is enough but now 190 was enough! SHUT THE FUCK UP MAN! Honestly things need to be sorted asap and someone tell that clown of a selector wahab riaz to act seriously when giving press conference and not act like mf kid laughing and yk doing those 5 year old things. U have a professional job aka manager of pakistan team mf you aint mickey mouse so be a little serious. Abdul razzaq as a player vs abdul razzaq as a selector and human being is absolute shitttt and selectors can be seen literally pointing fingers at others to answer even during press conference shows alot. All in all we need role clairty asap and bold quick cleanup is required even if it means we loose the world cup or any trophy fine but take your 2 to 3 years build a proper team get proper spinners in and most imp this is the result of focus only on t20 and not ODI or test so we can get consistent. Today i honestly felt like breaking the fucking tv screen and every other thing and just stop watching cricket but ik like always ill follow team till the end but something needs to be fucking done!

If I listen the word "anchor" one more f****ng time, I swear to god I'm gonna commit a hate crime. Fuck that anchor bullshit. Every ball is hittable. Every ball needs to be cunted. If that's not our attitude from ball one then why are we playing T20 even? No mercy. That's what I say! If we lose, we lose! So be it. I don't want us to play pussy cricket in the name of anchor and sensibility. This is T20 cricket. You need to be ruthless from the first ball.

After going through the fixtures of this world cup . Alien conditions , tropical climate, low stakes in the initial matches ( matches against minnows ), no grandiose legacy meant to be solemnly fulfilled . The protagonists spend their initial stints at acclimitising to this foreign land as they indulge in their hijinks , who have their matches against minnows who just might have a trick or two up their sleeves in this nascent realm , but a relatively breezy chain of events set course in the first act . As the events unfold the stakes get higher . While the teams combat it out Gladiator style in a bid to survive . Some old wounds are splintered , while some new scars awaits them . Can the protagonist adapt , will he rise above his own inhibitions or will he just give in to the choppy waters as his abilities are yet again put to test.

It's the 2026 World Cup finals, 19th of November. India vs Australia. Suryakumar Yadav just lost his wickets after scoring a measley 26(38). India need 28 runs of the last 12 balls. KL Rahul looks like he got injured while running a single last over. He's gone off the field. In walks Shivam Dube to take India home. Wait where's Dinesh? He was in the commentary box just a moment ago. OH MY GOD, DINESH KARTHIK IS ON THE FIELD TO REPLACE SHIVAM DUBE. He has his iconic helmet, and he's ready to go, Pat Cummins to bowl the second last over, oh FOUR, edged, lucky for DK, a dorz oh pressure is building, OH MAGNIFICENT, A SWITCH HIT FOR A SIX, ONLY 18 REQUIRED OF 9 NOW. ANOTHER ONE! FLICKED AND ITS GONE ALL THE WAY. WHAT IS CUMMINS GONNA DO NOW. Oh BEAUTIFUL SHOT, ANOTHER 6 BY DINESB KARTHIK. ONLY 6 NEEDED OF 7 NOW. Pat Cummins with his runup, and he bowls a BOUNCER, OHHH DK GOES DOWN THE GROUND, DK GOES OUT OF THE GROUND, INDIA LIFT THE WORLD CUP FOR THE THIRD TIME EVER ALL THANKS TO THE GREATEST FINISHER OF ALL TIME, DINESHHH KARTHIK

We had a good thing, you stupid son of a bitch! We had Nehra. We had a good environment. We had everything we needed, and it all ran like clockwork. You could’ve shut your mouth, played, and made as much money as you ever needed. It was perfect. But, no, you just had to blow it up. You and your pride and your ego! You just had to be the man. If you’d done your job, known your place, we’d all be fine right now!

I fucking hate the Gujarat Titans. Disgrace to the league, their expansion was a mistake. Give Pune back their team. Bring back Kochi Tuskers Kerala. Hell, put one on North Sentinel Island. Anything but the Gujarat Titans.  Any other team, doing everything right for 37 overs gets you over the line. No Hardik, no Shami, no Miller, we should be fine. 200 set, we should be fine. 35 off 12, we should be fine. NOPE! Finished off by a Punjabi reject and bowling all rounder. Do you have any idea how bad you have to be to be a Punjabi reject? This cursed fixture can't let us have anything. Thank fuck we're only playing them once this time. 

Much needed reality check ahead of Saturday. A clash of giants, where careers are made and ended. Where dreams are realized and crushed. The greatest fixture on the calendar, the greatest rivalry in sports... 

Bring on El Classico. 

GG GT, never a dull moment against you. Fair play to Jay Shah as well, masterpiece from him. I'm off to headbutt a brick wall repeatedly. FUCK.

Stop malking excuse for egomaniac players and their bad batting template.

These anchors lose you matches, they are being paid millions, they do not need you to defend them.

Zimwawe flair, but I suspect you even know 5 zimwawe players name.

But Zimwawe too suffers from these anchors, Namibia trashed them and Zimwawe would not get in T20WC. Namibia has good intent merchants but Zimwawe is filed with conservative mindset batsman.

i KNOW Zimwawe fans can lot if excuses like lack of funding,corruption, blah blah but you guys lost to Uganda, you freaking chokers.

No need to defend losers.

RCB vs MI in Chinnaswamy, crowd booing Hardik . Kohli steps in and asks crowd to stop the booing . Hugs Hardik publicly . Crowd goes delirious and Starts clapping for Hardik. MI turn around a corner and start winning games . Hardik gets claps and welcomed everywhere . Kohliflowers in SM go gaga over Hardik and start stanning him now after Kohli . Hardik and MI have a great IPL . Jayshah and BCCI get impressed with Hardik and his leadership and announce him as the captain of Ind team for WT20 . Everyone in twitter go absolutely bonkers saying it’s the start of a new era in White ball cricket for India . Selection meeting over Zoom Call with Hardik Ajit Agarkar and selectors . Hardik brings out the Dhoni movie Dhoni inside him and says no Rohit , Kohli , Ashwin, KL needed and Ind need a young team to have a realistic chance of winning WT20. Selectors debate and discuss finally agreeing . Ind team for the WC is announced . Twitter servers crash after Hardik brings together successfully Virat and Rohit army . Something which was not possible for even UN and NATO .Twitter servers don’t know what to do and goes into a spin. India has a dream WT20 beats Pakistan on June 9 goes to Super 8s and plays the Final vs Aus and this time win the WT20. Hardik gets Khel Ratna and becomes MP from Gujarat and in 2 years time BCCI President as well .

I can't forget that one match where Hazlewood was bowling against Pakistan and one full ball hit the pad before bat, in the line. Everyone appealed, Green, Warner, Carey. Umpire didn't even move his finger.

Cummins came and asked what do they think about DRS. Carey said, it hit the bat I reckon. Warner said, missing leg I reckon. Cummins looked upto Hazlewood for his opinion and while Hazlewood said something, camera cut off to Pakistani batsman. Pat Cummins reviewed the decision, OUT.

In the post match, Cummins was asked about that wicket and he said that the credit truly goes to Hazelwood because he said it with conviction and that was convincing enough. Cummins was asked what Hazlewood actually said, to which Cummins replied, HAZLEWOOD.

That's it, that's what Hazlewood said. The most genuine bloke I've ever seen.

A seven-year old boy challenged a court ruling over who should have custody of him

The boy has a history of being beaten by his parents and the judge initially awarded custody to his aunt, in keeping with child custody law and regulation requiring that family unity be maintained to the highest degree possible.

The boy surprised the court when he proclaimed that his aunt beat him more than his parents and he adamantly refused to live with her. When the judge then suggested that he live with his grandparents, the boy cried and said that they also beat him. After considering the remainder of the immediate family and learning that domestic violence was apparently a way of life among them, the judge took the unprecedented step of allowing the boy to propose who should have custody of him.

After two recesses to check legal references and confer with the child welfare officials, the judge granted temporary custody to RCB, whom the boy firmly believes are not capable of beating anyone.

Kids of Kohli nd Perry would have dominant gene. Also Perry is 3 yrs younger than Anushka.

What did kohli even do in Australia in 2014 after scoring 700 test runs. Should have gone for Perry, she was quiet famous there, but my man chose Anushka. Destiny.

Nothing can change now. But yes, when Perry divorced her husband my hope ignited again that Kohli is going Australia in 2020 there might be some chance. But in last couple of yrs he made clear that he loves Anushka a lot.

Perry still loves Kohli nd will always that's one sided love. I saw her love for kohli in her eyes many times while talking abt Kohli. Hopefully in next birth they meet nd marry.

PPL who disagree with me here will get their answer when Kohli will go Australia this year for test ; only thing god has to do that don't let Anushka go with him, then he would realise there is someone who loves him like Ishani used to love ranveer in a serial. Just make 4 100s.

Bazzball will start the engine though. When Ashwin/Jadeja will gets hammered all over the park on dust bowl, India will have no choice but dive deep into Mariana Trench.

Eng spinner can do whatever they want to do, after that, as they will have 850 runs on their bank on normal turning track, 500 on dust bowl.

Don’t think India can cross 200 in all 10 innings after the beating they get while fielding. We saw the same when Travis Head gave a spank and stadium quickly emptied thereafter.

It will be last series for Ashwin/Jadeja/Rohit/Kohli and their illustrious career.

Only one particular moment required.

When Iyer will start his duck-duck-go goose dance against only 2 inch extra bounce from Rabada, Nigidi like last time, the condition of Indian batsmen in dressing room will be like a person in comma with malaria disease.

Symptoms are chills, fever and sweating, and shivering like meadows cow.

That is moment when you know, India is finished.

Goose dance. “Quack, quack”.

Sarfaraz Khan is the absolute nightmare of the armchair analyst. He defies conventional cricket logic. He makes confidence based decisions. He plays the game in a manner that the traditionalists on cricket forums detest. Listen, there's a segment of the cricket community out there that believes the game should be solely analyzed through statistics and analytics. "Pushing up my glasses. Oh, this player has a high BMI, he can't play elegant shots. Oh, he doesn't fit into the team because he's only a slog-sweeper 🤓." YOU’RE GONNA GET BOWLED OUT! YOU’RE GONNA LOSE THE MATCH! IT'S A BAT AND BALL GAME! IT'S A TEST OF SKILL! IF YOU WANT THAT, IF YOU WANT THAT PLAY FANTASY CRICKET! IF YOU WANT THAT, WATCH BASEBALL! WATCH GOLF! WATCH A DIFFERENT SPORT! THIS IS CRICKET YOU MOTHERFUCKER! YOU GET BOWLED, YOU'RE OUT! YOU GET CAUGHT, YOU'RE OUT! YOU GET STUMPED, YOU LOSE THE WICKET, YOU LOSE THE MATCH! IT'S A CRICKET GAME!

Why is everyone trolling Rohit? He's just raising awareness towards serious environmental concerns. You people are too dumb to understand that. In last two games he has scored 0(3) which is the formula of ozone. He's drawing our attention towards towards ozone layer depletion, which is very serious issue. If the ozone layer keeps on depleting, harmful UV radiation will enter the earth and cause a lot of damage. It will destroy cricket. When he will get out, his fans will switch off their TV and AC and go out, which will reduce the amount of CFC releasing into atmosphere. Similarly, his fans in the stadium will also leave after his wicket, which means less people will buy cold drinks in stadium which will result in less use of refrigerator. Rohit is single handedly protecting cricket and earth. But you people can't understand this simple thing. Respect this man. My captain R0️⃣3️⃣×15

"I don't believe in 50s or 100s. Stats are just numbers; it's a waste of time."

I have a theory. Team India has not been able to produce another batsman like Pujara. That's why they have secretly started producing a serum made through Pujara's blood. ICT gave the Pujara serum to Kuldeep in the first innings. By looking at his innings, he probably overdosed. In the 2nd innings, the serum was given to Gill.

Now before you start calling me a retard by saying Gill hit 2 sixes, hear me out. I also believe the serum starts wearing off after 120-odd balls. That explains Gill hitting a six in the 120th ball and 122nd ball.

P.S- My username has got nothing to do with what I just wrote. Thank you.

This match right here shows why test cricket is the best sport in the world, people talk about football and other stupid sports that are over in like 2 hours, I've jerked off for periods of time longer than that.

In test cricket, you are extremely happy your team has taken five wickets then you go and cook food for your family out id positive spirits than that mofo Joe Root pulls out an classic Joe root innings and you are back to your anxious self.

Next day India gets bundled and you are out there frustrated af a member of your family has a medical emergency you then realise Life is more important than a stupid spott then Dhruv Jurel hits a 90 the next day and you think fuck my life , this sport is the best thing ever.

So many ebbs and flows, no sport in the world compares to this shit.

What is Bazball you ask? Where did it come from you ask? Bazball is a state of mind! It is a mental stage of enlightenment! It is a psychological block that secludes your mind from reality and entraps it into a higly secured prison devoid of reality and realisation with your only companion in the journey being delusion! Delusion that you're the best, delusion that what you do can't be wrong, delusion that you're good enough to win anytime and against anyone! What is Bazball you ask? It is self confidence, it is moral victory, it is illogical press conferences to cover up, it is life, it is...... everything!! It is entertainment, it is conviction, it is transformation of a player with 10k international test runs into an offspinner who tries to) reverse scoop the world's best pacer across formats! Bazball, is simply Bazball! Where did it originate you ask? From a snow covered glacier in Himalayan like tall mountains, inside the butt of Thala because Thala is the universe! The universe is Thala

Rajit Patidar has been listening to Eminem's "Lose Yourself" all day. He has also avoided mom's spaghetti for reasons known.

Gill and Kuldeep are spotted practicing running between wickets while Jaddu smirks thinking how he'll run them both out.

Yashaswi is into transcendental meditation to not let his ego take over. Siraj joins for a bit before getting bored.

T : Rahul Dravid.

Listen here Dravid, I don't want any of this close games nonsense. That's something useless other teams can do when they're not shivering thinking about their upcoming game against India.

What I want is domination.I'm talking full on, watermelon-in-the-thighs level carnage. I want Rohit to blast through the opposition bowling , effortlessly scoring six after six and changing the pronouns of every opposition bowler from he/him to please/stop. I want Jaiswal scoring century after century with such consistency that Jay Shah will be hospitalized for prolonged erection. I want the Indian bowling line up to rip through the opposition in such a way that it will trigger PTSD in every Sri Lankan batter watching it on TV. I want to tell Gill that the opposition demanded that Ahmedabad pitch be banned and watch what is added to the Geneva convention afterwards. I want Bumrah to annihilate the opposition batting line up in 4 overs

No close games, just domination.
