*Official* 12th Match (D/N) - India vs Pakistan - October 14th, Ahmedabad

[The Sean]

Shades of Akram to Lamb in '92 with that one.

 

[Socerer 01]

Bumrah > Steyn

for all 3 formats overall yeah

 

[Andyhere]

It was always a long shot for pak fans to have any expectations of this Pak team beating Indian juggernaut!
Those who accepted the reality before the game started will be less hurt!

 

[Andyhere]

The lack of trust on other batsman from Babar and rizwan was clearly visible on their approach. Not willing to take any risk on flat pitch even after getting set.

 

[Aidan11]

Another one sided game.

 

[Andyhere]

Another one sided game.

A team that relies on 2-3 players so heavily cannot give good teams a fight.

 

[King Kane]

Hopefully Pakistan can at least crawl past 200 here and give their bowlers something to bowl at.

Shaheen and Rauf could be a handful on this pitch if they can fire up like Bumrah has.

 

[HouHsiaoHsien]

Bumrah’s ball to Rizwan is the ball of the tournament

This pitch has no demons. Its not unplayable by any stretch of imagination!

 

[Andyhere]

Poor poor game awareness. 10 overs still to go, you are the last recognized batsman/all rounder and what do you do? Take a wild swing and get out!
Good stuff from Pandya though!

 

[Aidan11]

Lost 35/7. Worse than an England collapse

 

[HouHsiaoHsien]

This is doubly good for Ind. if they wrap up Pak for 200-210, they don’t even need to open with Gill, and can rest him further, with 5 days between this and Bangladesh. Prolly Rohit, Kohli, Iyer and Rahul can get the job done.

 

[Daemon]

Lol very poor from the lower order. They’ve just given up.

 

[Andyhere]

Another one bites the dust!

 

[HouHsiaoHsien]

These people aren’t gonna reach even 200 right?

He would rather get some practice in with no real scoreboard pressure

 

[Andyhere]

Even 210 seems a long way away now

Thats a luxury you dont associate with Pakistan when they are in panic mode

 

[King Kane]

Pakistan just throwing wickets away now, shades of the 1999 WC final where they imploded against Australia.

One day we will see a close game. One day.
