22nd Match - India v Pakistan

[King Pietersen]

Just the 136 needed from 5 overs for Pakistan. They'll chase that down easy.

I was really impressed with the speeds Bhuvneshwar was hitting. We know he's accurate and good with the new ball but those were serious wheels. He's quality and hopefully we see more of him ASAP. Unlike Stoinis.

Never saw his bowling spell today what where the bowling speeds for him.

 

[MW1304]

Why are they bothering? Go home everyone.

 

[Arachnodouche]

Hit 144/90 once.

Cricinfo: Play to resume in 10 minutes. Will be a 40-over game. Pakistan need 130 off 30 balls.

90mph-ish.

 

[Arachnodouche]

I wish Bhuvneswar a speedy recovery but Shami if anything has been in even better form most of last year. I expect him to do damage early doors in these conditions.

 

[trundler]

90-ish. Went across and hurried the lefties.

This is like the time when they insisted that they bowl the last few balls of the 2007 WC final in near darkness.

Who cares potentially more wickets for our bowlers. They deserve em!

 

[vcs]

Why bowl Bumrah here.. shouldn't be taking any risk of a fast bowler slipping in his run-up and getting injured.

 

[trundler]

At least Chahal was a bit expensive.

Virat should bowl himself to add insult to injury.

 

[slippy888]

I want a Asian team to win the cup this year if it not India, it going to be tough for Bangladesh and Pakistan to get a semi final spot.

 

[slippy888]

Apart from Shoaib malik these are probable the best available batting options they have

 

[Pup Clarke]

Do you give Hasan a tenth over? He's getting rekt

How did he get to bowl nine in the first place? Was bowling utter rubbish. Seriously poor captaincy

 

[Contra]

Bhuvi out for 2-3 games =(

Man these injuries are annoying.

 

[OverratedSanity]

May the Streak never end.

 

[srbhkshk]

Bhuvi out for 2-3 games =(

Man these injuries are annoying.

Especially given that both Dhawan and Bhuvi were in great form, gotta start from scratch now.

Shami is a beast in ICC tournaments so we'll hopefully be good without Bhuvi.

Shami isn't a bad replacement at all. But that should be the last injury we endure.

I don't think he is out of the world cup or something. Shami should fill in for the week day match. Hopefully Bhuvi is fit in a week.

Not sure what the prognosis but don't India now have something like another week before their next game? They'll have played 4 when others will have played 6...
