Divya Delhi: If ifs and buts were pots and pans, tinkers' hands would be idle". This deep comment was originally heard from Navjot Singh Sidhu on commentary almost two decades ago. After every Indian loss in cricket, the same experts across numerous platforms repeat the statement, which made a few laughs then. Their criticisms focus on ifs and buts. Expectations for the India-England Tendulkar-Anderson Trophy Test series have evaporated. The retirements of Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, and Ravichandran Ashwin were enough to lower our expectations, analysts said. After one loss and one win, the same experts shifted the story. When Shubman Gill can, who needs Kohli? Rahul can handle Rohit, so why bother? Why should Ashwin consider spin when fast bowlers can take 17? One does not want to tarnish all cricket commentators. This is impossible as these are all reputable players. As player-of-the-tournament, they confronted the world's quickest bowlers without helmets or driving luxury cars. One coached a side to its first IPL title in its 18th year, and another is India's top Test wicket taker. All have opinions—the same ifs and buts we discussed earlier.
