Kartik Jayaraman is a cricket enthusiast and a true student of the game who also loves connecting statistical dots on cricket trivia. In this episode he makes his podcast debut for our series. Kartik is @elitecynic on twitter. The conversation revolves heavily around the Adelaide debacle from two days ago. Kartik looks back at what will possibly go down as an all time great Aussie pace attack of Pat Cummins, Josh Hazlewood and Mitchell Starc and how they dismantled a decent Indian batting line up. Was it the Pink ball, or was there extra bounce on day three, or was there lack of technical application by Indian batters? Listen to Kartik on what transpired as we combine facts and some narratives on this topic. We also look forward to Ajinkya Rahane the batsman and captain. How different will he be than the leadership of Virat Kohli in terms of team selection and on field decisions. Why has Ravi Ashwin's batting numbers taken a nosedive and the importance of Pujara;s role in the remainder of this series also get worthy mentions. A lot of nuance and opinion packed in this episode.
