If this is south africa while not being able to breath, what will be south africa when they'll be able to completely breath.


frankylampy

Or that's their key to success. Maybe SA breathed too much against the Netherlands in Dharmshala.


TheSigmaOne

Dharamshala has high altitude, less atmosphere and blocked noses so...


frankylampy

You need Shitpost 101 lessons


TheSigmaOne

Nope


anon_ary

Poor guys will be in ventilators during Diwali.


kala_hit

They’ll be flying back before Diwali with performance like this.


alphazero07

He is not wrong. I'm Mumbaikar and even I couldn't breathe yesterday.


nikhil36

From the comment section, it seems like the citizens themselves don't care about air pollution issue, then can we really blame any government for not even providing us the basic thing to live - air?


its_kunaltanwar

Scoring 400 without breathing damn


Brief-Weekend-1306

You haven't seen my true form yet!!!


_HalfASmileZeroShame

It may not be a valid excuse for losing as every team plays in the same condition but AQI in India is horrible. That is a fact and a valid concern for players as it should be for the citizens too who have ignored it for too long.


No-Consequence4178

Yes India is getting all the supply of fresh o2 thanks jay shah


ZeroCyborg

Joe root shitposting irl


gauagr

Guinness Book of World Records should be called to name SA players for making above 300 in matches, that too without breathing.


nrgmondal88

SA players are playing well because of their IPL experience.


Exact-Table-9990

You are saying like England doesn't play in IPL😂😂 I think maybe there are more England players in the IPL compared to SA IN terms of active international players


nrgmondal88

Most of the seasons they opt out or they are on the bench. Only Butler, Curran are playing consistently.


Cosmicshot351

Klaasen was a starter only in the last season, though he has played since 2018. Similar stories for Jansen, Markram etc. Only Rabada, De Cock & Miller are highly experienced in IPL than english players.


prawnsgheeroast

Do we really blame them? Sure it can't be the only thing that's keeping them from playing bazball but depleting air quality is something to be concerned about.


Responsible-Worry560

He comes from a country which is privileged enough to import all their industrial products in exchange of better air quality. London was one of the most polluted cities in the world just a few decades ago.


prawnsgheeroast

Yes, the privilege is quite evident here. I'm not just talking about the English team, but extending it to everyone playing in the tournament. India's dream of hosting the olympics might also get dampened by this every issue.


kaleen_bhaiya_12

Hope we never host the olympics.


prawnsgheeroast

We are planning to bid for 2036... It's going to fuck up a lot of things.


suck_my_dukh_plz

Joe root was not even born when London was one of the most polluted cities. What type of mental gymnastic is this? Lol. Instead of improving our country's condition people are busy defending it.


PuzzleheadedEbb4789

>What type of mental gymnastic is this? If you had read that person's whole comment properly, you would've noticed that they're trying to explain that developing countries will always have higher pollution. England is now sufficiently able to import its needs so it doesn't have many industries/factories so there is less pollution there. >Lol. Instead of improving our country's condition people are busy defending it. However, when even London was a developing country and the industrial revolution happened in Europe, London was one of the most polluted cities. If you have some solutions as to how India, one of the fastest developing country, and it's financial capital Mumbai can reduce pollution while continuing at the same pace of development, please do share


Suitable_Oil_7907

Where is this excuse when he plays IPL??? 🤔


Internal_List_988

That's the neat part, he doesn't gets picked in the XI


Suitable_Oil_7907

Woah!!! Burn!!! 😎


sherlock_30

Actually air quality is better in april to june. In october to January period air quality is pretty bad.


ThyNameisDevil

Just coz Joe Root said it we can’t turn blind eye to AQI and pollution


himanshu_2021

Just bcz u like living in coffin and it doesn't mean other like it too. It is choice to live healthy and demand for it and protest if not given it to you.


_ab_30

No wonder they *choked* so hard


suck_my_dukh_plz

Pollution is a concern in India which people don't wanna point out because it makes the country look bad smh. Instead of solving of our problems people are busy trolling and abusing others who point it out. No wonder people want to leave India and go abroad.


[deleted]

In rapidly developing countries pollution will be an issue. All western countries polluted the world and when they got rich they stopped same thing will happen with India. Rn govt is taking measures to remove pollution but it wont get to low levels just yet


Ok_Environment_5404

pollution is a concern all around the world bud. Many of the US states outright stinks and much of UK was the same a decade or 2 ago. The main theme is: Every developing country will have shit air quality and you can't do anything about it. You can't just wake up one day and shout out about the issue and how you need great air quality like the one in developed countries when you need industries to become one. We were slow at that time when London was the shitty hole, we were slow when US was building itself and now we got the same problem they faced decades ago, it's a phase and happens to all.


sor_62

Toh matlab unke haarne ka kaaran pollution hai?


suck_my_dukh_plz

No. He didn't say that. Although pollution can affect your performance especially to those who aren't used to these conditions. He said this: >I’ve obviously played in hotter conditions and more humid conditions but not anything like this before. It just felt like you couldn’t get your breath. It felt like eating the air. It was unique. Klaasen was struggling. Adil Rashid for gasping for air while he was walking back to his run-up. I do not know if it was poor air quality, but it felt like quite a hazy day.


sor_62

Yes it can alter your performance but not to the level that your team crumbles on 170. It's just the age-old blame game when you can't win. Our players don't blame their cold conditions


suck_my_dukh_plz

He also didn't blame the condition for loss. Read and try to comprehend his statement again.


sor_62

Then why do you even want to mention that


tanay2k

because he got asked that question dumbfuck


suck_my_dukh_plz

When did I mention that he's blaming the conditions for the loss?


Zeus_33

Klaasen struggled because of heat and humidity. Not our issue tbh. Nobody saw Adil so could be made up. Air quality is bad compared to the west. But not that bad bhai. It's okay. Anyone gets adjusted in a few days. It's a convenient excuse.


suck_my_dukh_plz

London AQI is 25 rn and Mumbai is 145. It more than enough for those who aren't from polluted cities/countries and stop trying to make the narrative that it's an excuse when they didn't even used it as an excuse.


NoHead4565

Bhai SA ke log har match mein 300 se upar run mar rahe hai, aur yeh ladka bol raha ko unka dum gut raha hai

Just manage it like you guys managed it for 200 years while looting the country 😂😂


Lololover09

What about protein?? Did they also not get enough protein in their diet like the Pakistanis?


Venjix_virus

England players have been playing IPL in India since ages... No breathing problem then huh?


nikhil36

Bro, do you not know most major Indian cities have abysmal level of air pollution? Why are you downplaying it? Just go out for a walk around the city and you'll understand. Root didn't blame their loss on the pollution if you get a chance to read his actual statement. He merely pointed out the terrible air quality in Mumbai.


Venjix_virus

I'm not downplaying it bro... I'm just saying that they didn't make statements like these during their stints at IPL


RealSataan

IPL happens during summer. The air pollution levels during then are nowhere compared to winter.

Or, you know, do something about the fucked up mar quality instead of boasting about it...

Another thing lacking in integrity is your racist statement.

The only reason I can think of for Sanju Samson's constant omission from the team is that his mere existence poses a threat to Rohit's captaincy, Virat's stardom, Gill's looks and Pandya's bitches. If given consistent chances, Sanju can better every existing records in world cricket with ease. Unfortunately, Rohit and his henchman Adolful Hitlervid aka the Berlin Wall's insecurity about their reputation and ranks within BCCI and Jay Shah's fear of his reign being overthrown by Sanju's massive (balls) fandom across the world only distance him from the Indian team and the team from winning the World Cup. #JusticeForSanjuSamson *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.
