Rahul Rawat is acting.

He's a cricket journalist.

I mean, I don't know journalist, but whatever it is or yet obviously this I understand sports that can't say it on their live, but.

I guess important main point.

Video.

I.

I'm.

Sorry, share.

Subscribe now.

It gets beautiful.

20, 25.

Time travel because Indian fans Hindi Hindi main Hindi main.

1 is basically a mocking tone and the other is just to say that and the other is just to say that.

1980s, 70s.

Keshav Maharaj or Jo Hindi Bashi?

Yeah.

Episodes.

Pradeep Magazine.

But before we start, I will throw throw the discussion open with Sushant Mehta who has summed up the whole of India with this one line and ironically.

Yeah.

As long as you are offensive to other people, other teams, India loves it.

But Virat Rohit basically racism, unfair practices, celebrated lack of empathy towards other groups as a matter of pride.

Defining our people.

Yeah.

Sushant Mehta.

The.

Sociopolitical analyst we need.

Or do we even deserve that is the bigger question.

I want love.

I mean, I mean, we were speaking to Amar about this about the about how the Indian right wing completely laptop if you are Seca content because it was essentially trying to appease to India only India's reviews and all of that.

And if you are say got a mainstream with.

More tables.

It starts turnover.

Yeah, if you are say got a mainstream gig also.

But now the tables have turned where entire Pakistan is watching sports tucks sports, CRE Rev sports 2 sloggers, everything.

All of these things are being watched by Pakistan and Voclips Dal and Twitter by Voclips Dal then.

So I'd actually done take a live stream name and a Kuch Kuch pal Dekhe or Kuch Kuch cheese.

Middle of yellow actually.

History.

History.

Mystery.

Australia, Australia Kangaroo, Kangaroo.

Yeah, exactly.

He's a journalist, has.

Been to Australia bro.

Whose time?

I think if you could do a drinking game just this term you'd get drunk on every live stream.

California within the 1st England or Australia?

I will.

I will completely go against you.

I'll go completely against you.

Geopolitical, sociopolitical or his game political structure?

Opposition Hospital.

To hospital Sebi coverage continuous updates.

Bengali stream, Bangla stream, of course, was very, very sad.

We are a media critique in podcast first, cricket podcast second.

In cricket, successful combination banana across conditions you should still be able to do it.

This is not like 201415I even right?

And this man has managed to like be incompetent.

So many friends that it's not even funny anymore.

Basically like you give this to mera E hypothesis Champions Trophy Vaisal Joe Gambir ke coaching career crowning glory Ek when you are the Champions trophy and they can pick a side pack a scored with like some million spinners and.

Play.

Batting, Batting against.

Batting against.

He will pick the most random combination possible.

So that Champions Trophy took this problem out of his hands.

He the conditions were so stag.

He's slow and low, yeah.

Batting against spin, he so he could just stag and he had a batting side that was good chasing against spin and so on so.

They even even for the Champions Trophy, despite all the accolades that must be given to him.

That is what I'm like.

If you give him the best resources possible, he'll pick the worst out of that.

Somehow managed to make an imbalance.

But the general cricketing wisdom you we have watched this cricket for like a couple of decades now is that.

Spin bowlers like to bowl like.

Bowling longer spells first of all.

So as a result what happens is like it's mostly counterproductive stacking side with more than two spinners.

3 is a luxury at best and if the 3rd is a spin bowling all rounder, granted it works and anything beyond that is just pointless, then you would rather pick a pure batter or a seamer depending on what the conditions are.

But he had me repeatedly.

He packs the side with MATLAB on paper what he believes is like 2-3 dimensional players and 2D players and all that.

But then they are all like not very effective as a combination and we have seen this repeatedly.

England were so bad with that bowling lineup.

They just got lucky in that series.

Washington Sundar was playing as a false 3 and an invisible spinner spinner.

So Washington is good enough.

To Sundarne taking the Ashwin.

On these pitches.

That exactly I think Jarrett ke Partbevi Baturataj he he one would rather extend his faculties towards being a spinner rather than this false three Joey Traiker.

So Washington is a #5 plus someone who has to bowl a lot more on this country because but on rank.

You think about it, is the Jadeja, Is the Jadeja replacement the?

Entire problem is you are you have like 3 jadejas in this.

Actually axar is a like for like argument.

They do, but when it comes to team combination you're going to under bowl all of them right?

Is Aksar going to give you better batting than a genuine batter or Aksar is not going to bowl as many overs in this Test match?

He got wickets I agree, but eventually under bowl and you're not utilizing the best.

Match bowler, Match bowler He manage Washington, Sundarne and.

This is repeatedly.

This is 1/3 test in a row after his great spell at Lords where he broke that game.

Open overseas conditions New Zealand series.

So you have to pick one of them.

Either drop Axer or the greatest holder of all time.

You can't really have all of them.

Yes.

So on paper.

I mean, if you think of it, if you think about it, even South Africa, South Africa had what S essentially Maharaj second innings was largely not getting any turn.

That's the lucky wickets.

I don't know or so basically armour bold and and he's not going to be tired for the second test also test time B or just in case he needs it, considering he's a little older than let's say the last time he came to India and all of that.

But it's ka quil, see sport jokey Test cricket, Test cricket is.

I mean, end of the day it's a test and.

The moment you stack up more and more all rounders, the ability to get better bowling also reduces.

The ability to get better batting also reduces.

Do you don't know up that is entirely?

The problem when you have more of 1 commodity in this side utilization progressively and you might actually lose out on the best option of the lot it's possible that.

Where is?

Where is Nitish Kumar Reddy?

Where is Sudarshan?

You are in our plans.

Karun Nair is not in our plans.

Or he is that guy who has to has to be contrarian specialist and overseas flip side.

Overseas you are picking the side with stacking the side with notional all rounders.

Yeah Nitish, Reddy, Sundar plus Jadeja on paper 6 bowling attack.

But the ones who have to pick you the wickets, Prasit Krishnagu for example, like it was quite straightforward.

Key of all the seamers that you had seen in England, Prasit should have played a role.

Trafford, once this guy Akashdeep got injured but suddenly Anshul Campos, Anshul Campos go batting Karnataka 47.

So overseas you end up putting too much pressure on two of your Siemens.

At home you don't have a batting batting lineup which is stacked with like specialists.

So This is why they end up losing Medlab, Tumagar and.

Co Many, many go ahead.

Finish the point.

Then the Test matches that we have lost at home and also includes the Test matches in England and also that second Test against W Indies, which also could have been a different story had W Indies spattered a couple of hours more when they were going well.

That could well have been another of these Test matches where you had to chase 200 plus and they could have been folded in that Test.

All of this if you look at it as a pattern.

So what you'll find is that most of the people in isolation to other side may if you see so you'll just find that most of them have done reasonably well.

You will find that there are no like objectives, so as a combination.

They don't think about yeah, a, a they don't work.

But in in the minds of the people now this template, this template of playing more all rounders, Yeah, England made 22.

It was justified.

Accepted key.

It is justified now.

Now the problem is key justification like at least for me.

Like at that point in time I was also clear.

And and someone had batted half an hour.

Again, again, all of the all of those, all of those, all of those, even I'm, I'm saying leave, leave that aside.

I'm saying leave that.

Aside, same same they would be.

Giving you a different argument.

That is what I'm saying.

I'm saying this is that Evan Galbis effect to the maximum.

This is the Evan Galbis effect to the maximum whereby you know that your lower order is meek, plus you have lost your captain to an explain and who's hospitalized and hope he gets better and you will then have to bat more defensively plus add on the pressure.

Joe Gambir Khudal Rakhi des Dharti.

On a wicket where actually it would have made more sense to bat more aggressively because that is the only way you could have gotten runs.

So he so off his limited Test career, I don't rate him as an all time great.

Yeah Akhi Rohit batted like played some blinders on these rank turners Chennai Test just during that COVID series or even that series against England last year.

So and the only way to go on these tracks is sometimes to attack under Gambir possible name so he will have more participation on this.

So the other point that I wanted to definitely bring up is the fact keep there are long term effects of this that happened right whereby we saw it with the previous generation where you you created these Akaras at home and that affected the overall confident morale of the larger batting unit.

And when they when they travelled abroad, you don't have runs under your belt.

That confidence in, you know, Wojo Sari.

There is a struggling career that Gil had which was appended by the England series where he batted tremendously well and also Hazar Ranjubi Banayao and he therefore needs that confidence to go ahead.

Now you are in the in the state of Pakistan where they really had to shift to something else to get results.

In their defence, they change something else for results.

They realize like again, it's it's about, it's like drugs.

I.

Yeah.

Fair and democratic.

The top BCCI chief Proven performance, Hostile conditions.

Supervision.

Extra level.

Yeah.

The way this thing has gotten into their heads of second test, my options fair track to be very fair right there.

They have a fair chance of winning a Test match if there is help for team bowling.

But.

Coach is like Hotel California, you can check out but you can never leave.

Or Kolkata curator might think of himself as like who was famous for not who was famous for not listening to Indian captains.

So there was this very, very veteran curator.

I think.

So he was famous for turning away request.

Ganguly.

Lieutenant.

General Army Chief.

Blame is on players.

To be fair to this team, those are we were making good home pitches.

Many South Africa and then if you look at and and we have spoken about this multiple times, one of the best series that we have watched like at least in the last last decade, decade and 1/2 is that 2017 in India, Australia series where the pitches where the pitches were fair games went to the fifth day Mazar but nature what change?

An.

Opposition player score runs in India.

You look at this job sporting, which is sporting, which is if it's an absolute blank, let's say a scale, I think they still stand a very good chance of winning because of the at least the bowling lineup they have in all departments insecurities.

Statistical.

Unacceptable.

Unacceptable.

You go back to that classic Karuna triple.

100 Wala series.

So India, England, every test had every test had this pattern, right?

450 England batting first, India comes to bat.

Yato scores level in the first innings or second innings when the wicket naturally where your spinners are better at it, right where your Ashwin Jadeja combination, your seamers were better at it umesh Shami combination were versus Samne Anderson.

Broad were not effective in the same conditions.

So mostly Tumare bowlers home fair tracks pay will out bowl the opposition if it's not a lottery.

Lottery 90 kilometers per hour.

Pay fast.

Spin, Tom.

New Zealand.

Phillips.

Glenn Phillips, Glenn Phillips, Glenn Phillips Neither.

The problem is the gulf between gulf between the two sides or the two spinners.

Spinners from both sides rather reduces considerably.

There is.

No edge that you have.

Conventional sporting wisdom and generally out there, if you have played very long in home conditions, which home teams traditionally home advantage out there, it's not the extreme of condition.

It's like the average conditions in that country if you pick your bowlers have bowled a lot more in that so you have more skills required to be successful even if it's a flat track.

So to my steamers we automatically use May will outperform.

So yeah, Rivers 2010 eleven type time pay when Zahir was the only Indian bowler who was top class.

But this is like pre based pandemic phase overseas Wednesday.

They always come on these like greenest of green tops like Durban.

You didn't even need RP combination or that is 2.

1004 GABA and Adelaide Zahir took I think 5 wickets in the second innings or CAFE game.

It was a very competitive.

I think the GABA was a draw.

About the draw because of rain.

Yes, GABA draw or Adelaide.

Adelaide, OR.

I.

Want to 2nd in two 1011?

India and famously went on to lose to Grams same lesson after Ahmedabad was a flat track and then famously we know what happened in that.

And.

1, 80.

6 remake Hrithik Roshan remake ad campaign Was this This was the series?

Facebook series needs a bit of.

Rainwater now this is the strangest pitch I have ever seen in my life.

Like like Ek ball Jo ugly ball behavior naturally.

Is a very good test pitch.

2017 New Zealand Test.

People who have not watched cricket in India, they believe that they have been actively tampered with natural behavior.

Breed apart you see, can't say Bumrah B threat or Jadeja B threat because of his own accord, right?

Like in Simon Harmer.

So that is the I called and I think the worrying thing for BCCI bracket India is the fact that Rabada didn't even play other Rabada hota to a chhattis all out all out type.

Of wicket, seamer sometimes are more dangerous because experiment for wicket.

I.

Soch Mein madbhai manbao hai.

Left of center, center of right.

Alignment, unlike the pitch is has not been doctored.

Conventionally, wisdom.

Ronaldo, Rashford, Obligate.

Tumari Gigi Bandai bone Ek bande Ki balla chalane Ki akshar.

Patel is batsman.

Defence Player of the match is pitch ball.

Yeah, hotel champions, bilateral W Indies.

We have done a great job last match May.

Truth to power.

Video Dekha.

If he was a white batter, people would have widely acknowledged him to be the best batter test batter of this side just because he's not white.

Perception.

Cricket cup bots are a narrative India.

He's a joker basically.

Do you remember this?

Like in hindsight I find it very weird.

2019 and he lost a couple of tosses.

He bought timber to the toss and he asked him to toss it.

Kind of like it might have been a sweet gesture from Duplessy or whatever, but in India it was like ha ha ha, kind of like.

But this is sportna you go and play on any weekend, any weekend, challenge out any weekend, Kohli, B Gully, mohalla ground, kind of where this tennis ball, box cricket, any type of cricket is happening.

Other koi captain Bhulsebi Dotos Harga and which is the trope of all cricket in general.

But.

Point only.

The point was like by that point 2019, a lot of the tone was set from India and there is this one picture of him during the 2023 World Cup where is chilling kind of.

There is always this element of like this condescension about how people appreciate him as a better South African cricket, This fact that there can be a black African batter who is legitimately their best Test batter.

South African is their premier batter, which he is not.

Markram is extremely talented.

But 11 Tests as captain has an average of 57 as captain.

He has not lost a single Test as captain.

And the kind of pitches that they play back home in South Africa are the equivalent of these akhadas basically.

So K runs basically both difficult conditions.

And then even before this like tour to Australia where it was a debacle for South Africa.

Gabame Matlab wicket, really bad test wicket or the only South African so people have watched him bad.

Abhi looks surprise WTC finals.

Whoa going to Test match house the 100 Margazhi family IV because that was the first occasion when.

Against West Indies.

South African, yes, I'd hit a test 100.

And was it a test?

I think it.

Was test test you were.

Right, it was a family.

Test.

Match against W Indies at home and it was a moment to behold.

Or simple C cheese.

Just go except and debate South Africa debate.

It's the premier Batson they have.

May be important.

Men's cricket major grade A contractor grade B contract I think grade C contract India me karib karib nahi to be pachas cricket stadiums, academies, national cricket center or a team or a team.

Yeah.

Result oriented or result and now you've landed on the wrong end of the stick for last 3-4 times.

WTC and like we have women's team, do they deserve?

Do they deserve or do this men's team deserve?

Depends on how many eyeballs you bring, Yeah.

Doesn't depend on your performance.

The argument was that.

Yeah, India, I think.

I think demonetization was the perfect goal.

Demonetization.

But the point is another point is large section of BCCI racket.

India fans as a soldier, yeah.

Or management?

Management coach or captain coach?

BJP president.

Or prime.

Minister.

Which makes him what?

He is.

Diagnosis.

Bodies on the line, the people in this team who could have, who can pull off chases like this, They are lastly with the kind of batting that they have.

He has the batting of that guy but with a coach like this he will force Jaswal in another day if they're chasing 150 again on a diabolical wicket like this, he will ask Jaswal and punch.

2 bodies on the line boy.

Or would Joe's do demand Hey exact opposite so.

This is like the diagnosis of this team.

It's not beautiful.

Indian, India as a country, what you get when a Sangi head of state versus Sangi leader is in charge.

But when it comes to picking that team, defensive.

Team.

Reasons, retribution.

Everything is, or I mean it was.

True at that point.

Anywhere if India travels, Bumrah is a bigger threat than any spinner that India.

Can conjure up now.

With the series.

21 Australia and England.

Why?

Why did they not choose the easy part they could have taken?

Just like they were OK with the objectively preparing a track for that game.

But I mean, the pitch had life.

Or who was on the line.

The biggest test crowd by.

The way crowd say actually we must command the Eden Eden crowd.

But predictable you do.

India, Bangladesh Test match 2019, the last game that was played here, also had big crowds.

What we are of course that was from a night, night and year and all of.

That randomly India.

New Zealand in 2016 also had good crowds.

These have come to this stage.

The point is, we've come.

To this stage where we have to.

Thank this traditional justification.

The only major point is that Bombay, Calcutta, Chennai, Bangalore, these venues are all in the middle of the city, so they are so accessible.

Test match is an episodic sort of export, right?

So I can pick, I'll go for the posting session.

But that is only possible if the venue is not like some other city.

Practically impossible for people to do that in centers like those.

So they're not very well suited for this cricket because of that.

How accessible?

Because I have watched Ranji Trophy, Bengal versus Mumbai, which is where Ganguly was playing in his in that phase where he was trying to get back to the Indian side.

Mumbai population, catchment or accessible then people will take the chance.

It is not possible in Pune for example.

So those venues are built for people who have vehicles, personal vehicles, not for public transport, accessible facilities, even if they go empty.

Take second take second when you when you when you use as a hote centers get money.

Can centers get money?

The problem is and but needs repeating, 70% of all BCCI money goes to state associations and then vanishes TK to if a small center gets a game, it's great, but it's given to keep your political friends closer to that is your wonder.

It's not that it's happening right now.

It's not a.

It's not.

It's happening right now.

To be fair still around mid 2000 by design the Australia India test.

Match but reasons are not cricketing.

Reasons are Devjit Saiki as the current BCI secretary.

Therefore, he has pulled it towards his status.

I have.

No Mohali.

Mohali.

Terrible.

Test venue he he wielded more power, or almost equal power, as the BCCI president did, or so state association.

But Mohali terrible test venue.

I'm not in favor of Mohali, also traditional, but Mohali is not a very good test venue.

Repeatedly.

If you keep putting this, this looks good on TV and you have.

Also on a week date if 30,000 people were at Eden it really looked good.

36,000 or whatever the the number was.

I mean eventually we are looking at what one like 30,000 odd people coming in over three days?

I mean, imagine you give this city a test that lasts 5 days, you will see those 65,000 seats filling.

Yeah, it's not that everybody has not seen YouTube videos of 1,00,000 people in.

Everybody has seen it.

Everybody wants that back again.

But.

The problem is you.

Want It's not that you have not seen this Bangalore Test fill up routinely every time any team that plays Sri Lanka has played in Bangalore to pull crowds.

Are in New Zealand K Test.

Bombay may Test match, yeah.

New Zealand World Cup Co opener game and two the previous finalists were playing.

New Zealand was.

One 74174 was the attendance.

Half time the clever people who showed up, but they were all like truck member came on the blow open the ticket they.

Were BJP supporters.

Openly below.

BJP supporters Antilock T Antilock T They are on.

They are on record saying India, Pakistan.

Yeah, men have been used together, but.

It's an A useless country and in terms of organization, it is very easy to fill up grounds for any cricket match in India if you plan it the right way.

But then we will always make the worst choice when it comes to scheduling.

Unfortunately, at a time when the sport is expanding, these team got T20 World Cup schedule schedule.

Visa Visa Visa schedule.

Scheduling You will have crowds for associate games.

And they have announced that they have had to release around 2:00 and supposedly the in case of say men's game is bigger scheduling Olympics India, Pakistan because of.

I.

Mean.

I mean, their muscle strength is enormous.

Emergency players, Bhagate made IPL All those extremely privileged players were told to, you know, simply walk back and not make any statement on anything.

I don't doubt their ability to, you know, be able to arm twist a smaller country.

To come and play I.

Would like that to happen so please.

Powerful Asian Cricket Council.

It's like, it's like it's essentially Amit Shah versus because like puppet in the middle, right where?

Yeah.

The point of the matter?

Is.

Different Indian cricketer.

Generally sports people do resort to religion and stuff.

But that most Indian cricketers I.

Won't be surprised.

I mean, the team has.

How do you think?

How do you why do you think it?

All of these things don't cloud your judgement of how you view the sport.

That is my question.

Like Ashwin disco sublog bhatbada thinking cricketer when it comes to defending these garbage pitches does program to be fair.

There are no demons.

To be fair on their channel because I was there OG version.

So this guy, their love for the game is will celebrate South Africa's victory Hindi KKC show me nahi at this point, openly celebrate the victory of another team for the love of the sport basically so.

I mean, OK.

Ashwin Kasara blind spots so uppercuts, Tambram blind spots, Sabe same.

But somehow cricket, largely, even Pakistan, which probably is a reflection of the audience, maybe I do not know how accepting they are, because when you speak in a regional language outside of Hindi, right, you don't really have to, I mean.

About humility, to share Mother, being a sportsman.

The way the sport you know pulls you to the ground.

From, you know, many.

Times you are the master of the world.

I think that brings in some humility.

So I had very very like horrid patches.

This is how it pans out and still when these guys show complete lack of any sensitivity towards what's happening today, despite all your preparations.

Discussion.

I think just.

One last thing.

And it repeats.

And as you said, sport almost given these random things can happen and that humility, I do not know.

I think somehow the social narrative trickle down to the players.

Those are the and Australian team was touring Bangladesh for A2 Test match and some I think this was the tool where Gillespie scored the double 102nd test.

I think this was the same series I think or maybe statement.

I mean, there is no point to.

Subsidy, they almost.

Lost that test.

Sport a ball, you can have an off day, right?

So it's not a guarantee, it's not deterministic, and you almost almost had to eat your words 2.

1007 World Cup Bangladesh repeatedly discord server in terms word is unparliamentary but.

In fact, even the formal commentators use that have been using that word right, or sometimes it's a legacy.

Borrow so may not they generally, despite repeatedly, not that often, but somehow Indian cricket fans have forgotten that this can happen, which is why like every time you Pakistan and I have a feeling that.

Yes, exact football World Cup and it was in Russia I think, or usually.

But they were they were taking it out on the team here to undeserving team.

Yeah, host, host.

It's not their rule, right?

But they played, they played and then they did extremely well and then again they did well.

And finally, they lost out on the I think final eight-year final 16 May.

They lost out on penalty shots.

So kidney be team on the field could be possibility.

Or humility larger narratives in society when poverty hair or you have kind of like sold yourself this myth that humbish guru and we don't care about this sport is this one thing where instantly something real.

It's it's not staged to that extent media packaging on the point right, which is why when the bowler.

Is running in with the ball.

The legacy of that burden that.

You meaningless white ball.

Most people treat it as a friendly basically to try out combinations and all the carbon footprints.

Otherwise it was such a pointless.

Yes, Women's World Cup even.

On.

Cricinfo on the days of the World Cup, it would feature, you know, as the.

And I'm.

Not sitting in India.

So I mean, even if India, it makes sense for you to project the World Cup.

I mean, I think this was spoken about in much detail with the previous episode, right?

So this will not change instantly but.

Do you players who I mean, it is natural that you have to cozy up to the establishment.

Of course, there are enough and more examples Nahi nahi, who I think famous is of course, that 1978 Argentina World Cup where the oppressors were jailed and, and they were essentially the, the, the essentially those who were protesting were jailed and then they were watching the World Cup along with their oppressors in the tent.

And I'm maybe about key.

And then I had a discussion with Sartre also along the same lines and the, and they were watching the World Cup and, and cheering for it.

But I think the point that I'm trying to say is keep there is this, of course, we have this empathy for cricketers as well, less for male, more for female from a Lenski, they the male cricketers definitely have more power and therefore are more responsible for their actions.

And Joaji, today we see Ek Joe Hindu.

There is a a series of Indian cricketers past and present who have endorsed it.

I will name them.

I will name The Who have been associated with this Baba.

First of all you can call at least many images may or videos may dekha hai is Baba ko at least take Baba ke koi is cheese ko Robin Virender Sehwag.

Umesh.

Umesh Yadav.

Kuldeep Yadav.

Current current cricketer Shikhar Dhawan.

Shikhar Dhawan of course Shikhar Dhawan of course the the next day after he got an Ed case for for taking money from 1X bet and and all of that.

I also shout out to regular friend of the pod Swaroop because he has been writing on betting and Dream 11 this time and it was one of his reports that probably was critical in in in the Ed getting to these guys.

What I'm coming to the fact is key is shouting outside a mosque, whatever and this is with police protection all around him.

And we have a current cricketer essentially Kuldeep Yadav who essentially in the team in the 11 who endorses this.

We are now post all of this whereby this is normal and somebody like Siraj or somebody like Sarfaraz or somebody like they have to live with this reality.

Yeah, I think it was Joy Bhattacharya and a bunch of others.

Not like non sanghi voices who said that Indian cricket by SA ecosystem may even if say consciously you are not doing it tomorrow.

Subconscious bias may ABK ecosystem may selection that it doesn't affect in this ecosystem.

I'm unwilling to believe that.

What is the basically there are these 14 defining tenets of fascism or EMA showed us a picture #1 and I'll read all the 14.

It is important because sport and politics are connected, Powerful and continuing nationalism.

Second, disdain for recognition of human rights 3.

Identification of enemies slash scapegoats as a unifying cause.

Supremacy of the military.

Rampant sexism.

Controlled mass media.

Obsession with national security.

Religion and government are intertwined.

Corporate power is protected.

Labor power is suppressed.

Disdain for intellectuals in the arts, obsession with crime and punishment, rampant cronyism and corruption and fraudulent elections to essentially fascism.

Germany didn't become Germany in one day.

It came over a period of time.

It required significant efforts of that cult to take over the entire nation and subconsciously we're all gonna are we seeing are we seeing a lot of like I know I know for a fact I think a couple of under 19 squads prior to this, not the latest one that is released, they didn't have any Muslim player or any other minorities as well like.

Yeah, just because we get close to wrapping, don't worry, go to Batalisa on this.

We started off talking about timber Boomer, right?

So it's very documented in South African cricket that there is a subconscious bias against black African batsman in the age group levels because there is some sort of a Matlab unsaid unspoken kind of a rules in South African cricket that batters batting is a cerebral discipline.

Bowling is a more, you know, physical skill.

Fast bowling particularly which is a traditionally Mahaya Anthony onwards you saw like more like African fast bowlers because also the West Indian pace court caught it and all of that history or it is not that obviously to make if you're a black cricketer, you can't bat school level when coaches have the option to manage the players and all of that.

Even when they had like a lot of black African batters.

Why don't you take a bowling?

It is subconscious.

This is a post apartheid South Africa.

I'm talking where on paper but social biases but grass roots may subconsciously kidnap or kidnap the democratic is.

Essentially the How many cricketers have played for India?

How many other diversity?

Just because those panipuri, even today when he gets out, the slur is panipuri.

Economic Class.

There has to be a participation study, a demographic study of how many grassroot level cricketers are, from which community you have to the board has to care about doing a surveillance like for South African cricket, for all of it's ills, actively try to somehow look at it systematically, which is why we get these stories right in them.

It is difficult to get those stories because there is no one looking for those stories.

It was in the women's team.

It was refreshing in so many ways because of where she comes from and all of that.

That is a breaking of barrier truly.

And in the women's team, you might see it happening more because it's not gate kept by BCCI as much in a very weird way because they don't really care about it.

And cricket Group A cast according already cricket group.

Mumbai cricket representative of this diversity of a city of Mumbai.

It is not to a larger extent Mumbai homogeneity.

Agra Bombay is such a diversity.

But why is it that you only have some curve ending surname?

Yes, migrate.

Migrate come like ABI sarfras or also born in Bombay at these new age stories, but traditionally.

Social, political, socio economic group that is the implicit inherent.

It's not just key actively because because national team it is despite the system it is not enabling.

Yes, wake up as a flag.

Same with Pakistan, right?

Pakistan active cricket but implicitly cricketers backgrounds.

Of course India has more Muslims and more minorities than Pakistan and all of that, but that is a relic of old India, not post independent India.

So.

Supporting this, let's say Hindu opportunity.

So why don't I just stand so much back in the queue just because I aligned with them right?

I don't, I think opportunity, right?

And then there would be some.

It.

Can well go towards oblivion beyond the point it's just that quick.

Despite all of this, I I have a lot of reservations against this playing Lord, but there is still an empathy.

I got a OR so I can understand Excel preservation, but yeah, going out and about, going way over the top with this thing that's.

But man, Sachin Tendulkar, Venkatesh Prasad, go after them with absolute ferocity, playing time, stardom, privileges, but then you actively chose to go down that.

Yeah.

That.

Is this is for a very young guy?

Yeah, absolutely repulsive.

But for younger guys, as much as I dislike it, I cannot put it on them.

The same post for women cricketers, right?

They have their own fight.

It's the same thing, right?

Then I'll start picking apart their opinions.

This is like saying Muslims lack of scientific.

But.

There is a there is a quote.

I don't know if it's accurately attributed to Periya or not.

Majoritarian minority religion or minority religion?

Major dominant faction it is.

Less powerful like Pakistan, Pakistani Hindus and the oppressed groups, they are the oppressed ones.

If there is an act of oppression against a Hindu in Pakistan, Pakistani Muslims have all the power to.

Have your empathy calibrated by identity.

It only means to.

My.

First principle.

First, principle identity.

There, there, there.

It is the celebration of their diversity.

It is an assertion of your.

Rudeness.

Crudeness equivalent to celebration of Diwali in Indonesia.

The equivalent analogies.

A is to A, the O is to red, apple, green, something.

Something.

Sort of like these cool DJ parties That was act of defiance.

Act of compliance compliance.

You're being the soldier of that.

I would say compliance because you think, OK, fine, marching on with that.

Before we end mapquake finally.

Bus.

Simon Harmer I don't like care about it but yeah I'm so so happy with both Babuma and Harmar.

Harmar has 1000 first class wickets.

I know TV but coffee time say SX.

Or is series parallel New Zealand, Series New Zealand or Pakistan, South Africa?

Pakistan.

And this is going to be a trend going ahead, teams will schedule towards such a way that so.

No more golfing tours in Dubai, right?

Dubai.

They have.

They can just do this.

Or even even better off.

Afghanistan is a Test match schedule.

Or BCCI genius Test match you?

Remember the New Zealand actually.

Wanted to add in Afghanistan.

Which would not have been.

Wanted to name there was a scheduled test which didn't happen.

I know your name in Lucknow.

Yeah, Yeah.

It didn't happen because of the.

Rain and because it didn't dry, Noida.

Because stadium maintenance.

But the A-Team part of the WTC, I'll make big predictions.

A-Team Sri Lanka.

Sri Lanka is now a solid Test team at home.

I don't think this team can win in Sri Lanka as long as Gambhir keeps picking these sites.

Starting.

Act of defiance Victorian English cricket telling women to stay away from.

Women.

'S cricketer, I'm sure, whatever way.

I mean, I don't even watch, but you can be sure that they were critical of the women cricketers and then of course they were very, very happy.

They won and and then they were like we will get them on our part and and it and it might just happen so that that just starts.

Content farming.

Oh yeah, yeah.

You know IPL Twitter handles.
