On this day of all days - who is watching cricket content?

[@v1rat.]

Me

[@v1rat.]

Keep em coming Sorabh, there's been a drought of good cricket content on here.

[@youtubeexplorer282]

hardly any one

[@pantonfire]

@@v1rat. On here?

[@v1rat.]

@@pantonfire on KZbin yes 😂😂 (not your channel tho)

[@naveenkp8305]

Loved this conversation, Sorabh...Sachin's aura, Akash Chopra could have asked for a photo with Jimmy...Balaji being more famous in Pakistan than in Chennai is truly epic

[@pantonfire]

Haha - fully. Thanks much :).

[@WakeUpPant]

Arrey sir aap yaha.

[@Sunfied]

Loved the little insights. Gonna read the book for more.

[@WakeUpPant]

Oh ya - breezy read :). Lots of fun.

[@Sunfied]

@@WakeUpPant Yup, that's what I'm expecting.

[@am.saturday]

This was a great conversation. It would be nice to see more videos like these. Wonderful insights

[@WakeUpPant]

Thanks a lot :). Quite a few recorded during GT20 in Canada - will probably edit those at my own cost.

[@am.saturday]

@@WakeUpPant need help editing, happy to help depending on the content.

[@RohitGambhir32]

Looking forward to lots more cutting edge analysis from you and other panelists throughout the world cup 😉, match dekha nahi dekha, podcast to dekh hi lenge 😂

[@WakeUpPant]

Cutting edge analysis I don't know :). But, cutting - definitely.

[@alani3992]

For that 1 shot, Kanitkar was picked for every series for the next 2 years.

[@WakeUpPant]

Oh my god - yes. All-rounder but :). Just checked stats. 17 with the bat, 47 with the ball. Thoda ulta ho gaya.

[@alani3992]

Kapil Dev got boos from the crowd that whole series, but during the last match the SA crowd sang him Happy Birthday.

[@WakeUpPant]

Lol really? That's a great tale. Unless it was not his birthday!

[@nastybadger-tn4kl]

Ok i subscribed. I wanted to see you keep your funny thing. It seems you got natural funny bone.

[@WakeUpPant]

:). Check the rest of the videos as well. Thanks.

[@RohitGambhir32]

Sorabh, your two cents on players like Samson & Azam, team me nahi lo to kyun nahi liya and once they’re in the team then kyun liya. You had a chat with Azam, seemed to be an okay lad, quite aware of his skill set and limitations.

[@WakeUpPant]

Pakistani fans trolling Azam for his weight seem to forget about Inzamam :). He's actually been pretty good with most of the leagues he's been in. As for Samson - sincerely hope he nails it. Needs a long run instead of this rubbish 1 match here, 2 matches there stuff. Oddly - I think post the World Cup: he'll get that.

[@mohammedyusufmoosa6110]

More like Shashi Tharoor than Rohan Gavaskar

[@WakeUpPant]

Oh ya - Shashi launched his book also. Couldn't tell who was who.

[@nastybadger-tn4kl]

I like your question bud. About BCCI and how JAY SHAH looks like he is mafia boss

[@WakeUpPant]

Lol never said that :-P. I would like BCCI contract as new Harsha Bhogle.

[@garypereira9753]

Missed this yesterday.. patta nahi Kya hua tha kal😂😂

[@WakeUpPant]

Haha, no excuses. Unless you were conducting exit polls.

[@youtubeexplorer282]

U didn't come up with any ipl final video..very disappointed

[@pantonfire]

I did release a video - you probably missed it. All other comedians were not free.

[@youtubeexplorer282]

@@pantonfire 4 min video doesn't count😭could have invited non comedians

[@WakeUpPant]

@@youtubeexplorer282 Who non - comedians? Honestly - it's a bit of a pain coordinating with 13 people every video: so, gave up. For the World Cup - planning something. Issue being night all comedians are doing spots and during the day everyone is working. So, only time is weekends: where I'm rarely free.

[@WakeUpPant]

Thanks, mitron.

[@nastybadger-tn4kl]

I always wondered why Cows poop and piss in middle of every city in india. now i have the answer.

[@nastybadger-tn4kl]

Its not 20 team is not a problem at all. Because you need to have motivation. if you go more team , you need to have KNOCKOUT. At present they are all participating like name sake. Give them some incentive that they have chance if they get to knock out. Whole thing is HEDGED against small teams. Stop making FAKE excuses.

[@WakeUpPant]

It's a World Cup, not a Champions trophy. Even in Football - they have groups. Super 8 onward is purely a knock out - and who is making fake excuses? The smaller teams are going to pull off a minimum of 3 'upsets' and my feeling is at least 1 of them will make it to Super 8.

[@papa_putin]

India are or India is?

[@pantonfire]

No clue - I are stupid.

[@WakeUpPant]

India is are country.

[@nastybadger-tn4kl]

I am gona disect everything you say in this video. let me grab some beer.

[@WakeUpPant]

Go for it :).

[@mowaseer6424]

Guy starts with India has problem of Player stardom and goes to say ICT is most humble team, bro kch tu Maryada rakh lo bahi, I mean yes u need to farm views and all but atleast don't do intellectual dishonesty.. Sorabh u yourself met Pakistani Cricketer and interviewed them did u face any kind of hate towards you or India people. I mean we have seen most recently saga of Rohit and Hardik kyn bahi akhir kyun?

[@WakeUpPant]

He was talking about his book and in context of 2003 World Cup. That's literally where we started that conversation of from :). Also - not sure where the topic of facing hate comes from - never mentioned anything about players hating on me! The idea was just about player controversies back then. Now toh is another topic.

[@nastybadger-tn4kl]

I google Amrit mathur to find his date of birth to do my analysis but i cant find it , so i can only do blind analysis on how much he enlighetend. Market decide is stupid argument. We must change before we hit the wall. SMART one senses it and constanty metamorph ahead of things. What india need is INDIA A and B team and that tour smaller nation all around the year. Instead of wasting money on useless things they must pay more contingent of players. So get best and brightest out of India. Abishek sharma should be in the team before jaiswal but BCCI is very conservative. They dont make changes unless its forced. That is amrit mathur line. NOT GOOD. Good in business sense in that YOU JUICED every thing out of it. BUT INDIA still waiting for world cup for 11 years. We only 12 team and only 3 good team in the world and we cant win it with 1.4billion indian and 1 billion profit. INCOMPETENCY is LAST NAME of BCCI

[@WakeUpPant]

Lol your point is all over the place :). 1. Market does decide, unfortunately. That's literally why T20 exists. 2. India A teams are on tour quite a lot, plus with the IPL - the international exposure aspect is less removed. Additionally, even non-Team India players have more than enough cricket to play. Plus, and more importantly: A & B tours are loss-making, seen India A v NZ A in BLR: no one was watching. 3. Your third point of India not winning a tournament - what's the connection to the initial chat about market forces?

[@nastybadger-tn4kl]

@@WakeUpPant You are fearful bud. People who have this concept of market decide is one who dont want change unless its forced. One of reason india cant win any tournament. We dont do anything to winning the tournament . We want it to happen organically. Never. We must create a system of finding X factor players. I know we should not pay ICC to buy a world cup. Next best we can do is create internal scouting department that bring in trained and ready players by private scouting. Same as baseball where people bring players from cuba and sell it to sports franchise. But they pay scout because he spend initial cost and training and moulding players. INDIA have many many red tape. So we have to have a system that bypass them to bring in real talent. Not all work but we should have the path Everything is connected bud. I mean india A and B tour should be televised. Because when people see , player knows indians are watching they play to their potential. With all the red tape with video you have evidence. its not someone else opinion. Will BCCI change . Not really. Enlightened people are not running BCCI. Its more of business cabal. Indians are stingy. if you go to any indian house in USA and Canada. They all sleep in the floor. Because everyone buy the house to sell not to live. May be 4th generation of indian dont care they live like american and canadian. Its ok i guess in a way. Any avenue to make money is ok . being pragmatic. But i dont like BCCI conservative philosophy of selecting coaches. Issue is manyfolds. None of these humans know who can be good coach. What BCCI looking is one who dont stir the pot at minimum. No critical thinking or critiquing existing system is not allowed. For us to easy to hire better coach. Issue is like RCB. Its RCB dont want to win but most humans do not know who can be right coach. In this world , People apply for job they dont qualified for , people who is qualified will never apply. Anyway keep making vidoes . Funny videos.

[@svk.ganalysis6539]

Amrit Mathur has zero knowledge about cricket. He said to Sunil Gavaskar before the 2023 WC final that this Indian team is the best & the next day.......

[@svk.ganalysis6539]

How much cricket did this Amrit played in his whole life😂😂😂😂?
