**Official** Asia Cup 2012

I like the head-to-head rule. Preference for NRR had the unfortunate effect that teams could opt to bat for the NRR instead of going all out and risking the collapse while chasing huge totals.

But as I said it ignores the results against other teams completely. Don't like that at all tbh.

i thought India were getting their butts royally whipped down under so had not been following since the Indian loss in the test series

Most Indian fans at that time felt the same.They only watched it to see if India could surpass Pakistan's 0-9 result last time they toured down under.Fortunately for India, they couldn't and Pakistan's feat still remains the nadir in terms of most international matches lost against one team on a tour.

We need more Fawad Alam guys I'm telling you!

So? How is Pakistan's performance down under even relevant in the context of this discussion?

btw nice trolling attempt

India were just as bad as Pakistan down under, so I don't see the point.

That's not a troll man lighten up. /jeez

Wonder how many boxes of tissue Jono went through watching Kohli's innings.

Nah, as aforesaid, Pakistan's 9-0 is a world record (Bangers are 2nd with an 8-0 against someone) so India can't have been just as bad.No team has.Ever.As for not being able to see the point, I don't see the point of any of your posts or threads, too.Your sole aim is to subtly troll Indian fans but clearly can't take it when someone dishes back in kind.Go and watch last year's WC final.Might improve your mood.

Sparkley, go easy. You are too new here to form opinions about the members here. This forum sees minimal Indo-Pak bashing and is a fun place for that reason. Relax. Take some banter in your stride.

 

[slowfinger]

Oi oi now stop it you two, Smali why you are always so defensive is quite ridiculous, and to the other dude yar hes a sensitive guy so just chill with him.

Fine.I rarely post here so doesn't matter anyway.A few blokes need to be put in their place,though.Making stupid and trollish threads like comparing Afghanistan and India's bowling reeks of foolishness.God has a funny way of making people eat humble pie though so all good.

 

[Furball]

Virat Kohli's recent ODI exploits are bordering on the ridiculous now. What a player.

What? I am always getting defensive?

 

[slowfinger]

I'm liking Sparkley and completely agree with the last post!

 

[ankitj]

No one needs to be put anywhere. Take a chill pill. Agent took your response in India/Afghanistan thread quite sportingly.

 

[smash84]

agree with the fact that Agent's India vs Afghanistan thread was pretty trollish

edit: but as Ankit pointed out he took it quite sportingly

By that I mean you accuse people of trolling way too much.

As he had to.It's akin to a bowler grimacing after his rank half volley gets the treatment it deserves.You seem a sport though so apologies if you took offense to anything.Just want to point out there's a thin line between banter and trolling.
