Deep-rooted or Knee-jerk, Kohli Got This One Wrong (Or Wrogn!)

To his chagrin, Virat Kohli last week realized that social media, while giving unlimited and unfettered contact with the world could be a booby trap too unless one is careful. His outburst against a fan who popped up on his new app and questioned the worth of Indian cricketers, so to speak, went viral, earning him opprobrium from a vast cross-section of people in cyber space, subsequently spilling over into mainstream media, and conversation across the cricket world....

Memon: Batsman Kohli Has Touched the Stars, Captain Kohli Still at Crossroads

Memon: Wadekar Was a 'Character', Somebody Who Would Stay With You Forever

Encomiums and rich tributes have poured in for Ajit Wadekar ever since his death last week, none of them exaggerated as can happen in such situations. His contribution to Indian cricket – in multiple roles – is enormous, and acknowledgment of this is mot juste....

Memon: India's Batting Regression Needs Robust and Immediate Analysis Within the Camp

While the series in South Africa was fiercely contested – as reflected in the 1-2 result – and the first Test of this tour was a humdinger, India’s collapse in the first innings at Lord’s shows regression rather than progress as far as the batting is concerned....

Ayaz Memon feels that the run-out of Joe Root started a collapse which saw the hosts lose six wickets in the third session and brought India right back into the game by stumps.
