[NYRB]

i dont understand the hype with Markram as a T20 player, I havent really been impressed by his IPL 2023 campaign.

 

[NYRB]

And Mumbai have pegged this back in game 69. Hyderabad were looking at 220 at one stage, according to Kevin Pietersen.

 

[NYRB]

That ball very much sums up Harry Brooks IPL 2023. First ball duck.

 

[NYRB]

I think bar Klaasen, the Hyderabad imports this campagin have been a horror show: Markram, Harry Brook, Marco Jansen, Farooqi. Glenn Phillips should have been given game time over their captain as rude and crude as it sounds.

Also Brian Lara doesnt strike me as one of the more astute coaches in this format, its best they part ways with him to reinvigorate this team. We have to remember Lara was an exceptional test match cricketer in his day, not a T20 specialist .

Hyderabad end up with 200 but the momentum is with Mumbai at the change of innings.

 

[NYRB]

Cam Green with 50 off 20 balls batting at 3. Just what Mumbai ordered

Funny what happens when you open with him..........

 

[Westend]

Funny what happens when you open with him..........

Love you tugs...number three but I get your point

 

[Tugga27]

Love you tugs...number three but I get your point

Yep
My mistake.

He basically got picked because of the way he played when he opened for Australia.

Batting at 7 and getting stick because he "chewed up 2 balls" was laughable.

Faced I think 6 balls for the game and people were saying he cost them the game.

This is a bit better than watching the Eages Westy.

 

[Corrupt_]

Yadav has a bit of FIGJAM about him

 

[CakeEater]

Great century Greeny.

Smoked them to all parts

 

[largebus]

The best player with surname Green(e) gets his 100.
Silly running at the end though

 

[NYRB]

Cam Green with 100 off 47 balls.


That one will shut the critics up for sure. I must admit I had my doubts.

 

[Aussie_boy]

Yes Greeny! No matter what you think of T20, this innings tells you how much talent this bloke has.

Just wish I tuned in earlier.

By silly running do you mean the fact he touched his bat down for the winning run before the ball hit the boundary? Cost him 3 runs that.

Cam Green could get a gig playing for the West Coast Eagles, given what they dished up today against Hawthorn. Wouldnt look out of place at Centre half forward or full back.

By both batsmen, Yadav sentding him back at the end of the last over, Green tried to dink it on 98 with the field in and again on 99. And yeah that would've padded his average as well.
Matters little in the end

 

[NYRB]

Sachin Tendulkar applauding Cam Greens innings...........you love to see it. You know when the master applauds a young one, you have a special one on your hands.


A legend applauding a future legend. You love to see it.

 

[NYRB]

Markram also shows pi$$ poor bad language after every game. Not sure if its just me but as a player or teammate Id be so unmotivated to player under him. Compare him to a Hardik Pandya, their body language are miles apart.
