First they ignore you.
Then they laugh at you.
Then they accuse you of taking drugs.
Then you win.

Ep 175: Storm in a no cup, amid epic aniMohsinity
India win the Asia Cup while staging an embarrassing political charade.
Join @knittins@prashantdptweet@imanpande and @notytony as they discuss : Has cricket become War plus the shooting?
Watch/listen!
I’d like to think that England players will be embarrassed if they were to listen to the things they said out there in the last 15 mins of chaos at Edgbaston.
Is this the “spirit of cricket” they talk about all the time?

Stokes: (and this is the best): “you want to get a Test 100 against Harry Brook and Ben Duckett.”
Response: “last time i checked i am not the captain of England. you choose your bowlers. I choose the shots i play and guess what! So far I’m winning today. So just bowl.”
Sure! England was ragged. They were frustrated. But surely this is not what you want to see in cricket. I hope the @ECB_cricket Board looks into this and puts an end to this pesky, tetchy, touchy, superciliousness.
Our goodbye Kohli and Rohit episode is worth listening to in full, but if you're pressed for time, don't miss the first 2 minutes where we air Donald Trump's exclusive press briefing where he took full credit for it.
Ft. @prashantdptweet as Trump,

Ep 153: Smile because it's over, don't cry because it happened
Now live
The end of India's BGT streak signals the end of an era for the Indian team. Tony, Iman, Mohan, and Nitin take deal with this heartbreak in a raw, explicit-laden, cathartic episode.
@beastieboy07 & @isaguha on Ch-7 commentary about “lack of clarity” over the non playing of Rohit Sharma at the SCG… with all sorts of discussions on slips cordon and all that..
This “clarity” is required in the team or in the minds of mostly irrelevant media?
Fully confused
The the slips cordon that @beastieboy07 so nicely obsevered and tweeted about should give him the confidence (if needed) that there is ABSOLTELY no lack of clarity in the team right? So what’s the issue? It doesn’t fit some nice frame that he is used to? Aaaah ok then!
DRS needs an overhaul. The protocol is not transparent. It is as interpretative as the on-field umpire. The 3rd ump needs irrefutable evidence to overturn the on field evidence. It is there to prevent howlers. The primary decision is the onfield decision. @ICC#cricket#BGT
