In T20 Internationals, bowlers are only allowed 1 bouncer per over. But the rule makes it even worse

If you attempt a bouncer and overcook it above the batter's head, it gets called a Wide. But it STILL counts as your 1 allowed bouncer

So in just ONE ball

You give away a Wide run + extra ball

Your bouncer quota for the entire over is gone

Bowl another short ball? It’s an instant No-Ball + Free Hit

Fast bowlers get double penalized for one tiny mistake...In a game already biased toward batters, ICC needs to switch to 2 bouncers per over like the IPL

youngest to take a ten wicket haul

i was so excited to see more of him because he was so so good like come on those stats are otherwordly, why isnt he included!?

Rutu should open with Rohit in 4th and 5th odi again Nz and Ishan should play at 5 replacing KLR as he will be backup wk for wc so if there is situation when we need to replace KL due to some injury(i hope he never gets injured) then Ishan has to play at 5 as he can't open as Gill will be there

I think after IPL, he hasn't played any first class cricket in any format. He wasn't part of Bihar's Ranji team which lost vs UP last week.

After that also, I am not sure if he will make the cut. I think Sakib exhibited decent control during IPL even on flat pitches and giving more opportunities will help.

Do we really have any chance?

Pheiroijam is an upcoming fast bowling all rounder from the state of manipur. He walked out to bat when his side was down 52/5, he remained not out at 105* and made sure his team was able to chase the total. This is after He had already contributed in both the innings with the ball, posting a BM of 5/83. He is a veteran of 3 Ranji seasons and is maintaining an impressive batting average of 43 and a bowling average of 23 with SR of 45.

It's hard to find the footage of plate group matches but i have attached the video link of jotin's impressive performance in the duleep trophy where he took the wickets of easwaran, kishan and gharami, ending with figures of 3/64 (22 overs).

I highlight this performance because Northeast cricket players hardly ever get any recognition or the chance to improve their game. They mostly play against eachother and constantly get relegated even when their team gets promoted. And the cycle continues. I don't feel the plate system has done any good for the development of cricket in the northeast which has produced a lot of atheletes in other sports. Teams can only get better if they keep on playing the stronger teams.

Not only for century, even when he scored 50 everybody was clapping and even though the opposition was scoring people were really enjoying themselves.

My first international match watching in person, so may be this is a normal thing, but i found it as a nice gesture

Axar as batter is slowly becoming a liability. Didnt play any good knocks since the champions trophy. Hasnt had a significant contribution in finishing matches in recent times. As much as we love axar, hard truth is he is just sliding to be a bowler now.
