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

[HouHsiaoHsien]

Ind should look to chase this quick for a NRR boost.

 

[ashley bach]

It all started when Babar surprisingly made a weak attempt at what appeared a simple forward defence.

Can we end talk of an Indo-Pak rivalry?
It is only a political rivalry. There is no sporting rivalry between these 2 sides - a rivalry implies a contest.
Pakistan are absolutely mentally scarred against India in cricket now. These are no contests.
8-0 will become 10-0, 12-0 and nth-0.

Good thought. But no.

 

[Shri]

What do you mean "These people"

what do YOU mean these people

 

[Andyhere]

their batting at no point looked like they wanted to get 330+ tbh

They were batting with no trust on rest to follow and we now know why!
Because of that lack of trust, both Babar and rizwan can't play fearless and have to be scared of losing their wickets

its a chicken and egg situation

you cant say the middle order is **** and thats why we bat slowly to be aggressive at the end then bat slowly and lose your wickets before the end and then put the middle order under more pressure

 

[Andyhere]

Everyone took 2 wickets except for thakur!
If bowler were to be awarded MOM, though unpopular, my vote will be for Siraj! He stuck at crucial times, both his strikes came when pak was seizing the momentum.

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

Lol at every game in this tournament being a blowout.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Afridi with classic three wickets in his first spell would be good now- Rohit, Gill, Kohli

 

[Spark]

Yeah it's not been much of a viewer's tournament so far.

 

[Aidan11]

I suppose India could still lose.

But they won't.

Nice joke!!

That's not how it works.

That's the boring group stage for ya Boxy

 

[Jumno]

India have completely bambozzeled Pakistan. Should be a straight forward chase

 

[Spark]

Good thing that's 90% of the tournament then.

 

[King Kane]

Pakistan's bowlers picking up where their batsmen left off by getting destroyed.

 

[Shri]

erasmus made two not out decisions today for lbw appeals. plus another one that was umpires call that was insane not to give.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Hasan Ali looking like a trundler running in and bowling pies

 

[chris.hinton]

Yep its a bit of a snoozefest until perhaps the last round of matches
