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

[ma1978]

This is the problem with the current Pakistan team (other than a lack of talent)

Imran, Javed, etc would have loved coming to the rivals home and plundering. Now this ground complains about not hearing some lame pop song from the 90s

 

[Shri]

Nah . NZ and SA have also been awesome.

NZ has some weaknesses that can be exploited by good teams. But I don't see any obvious weakness in SA's setup. Hope NZ play SA in semifinal

 

[Shri]

i mean that's not the translation and we all know it

 

[Shri]

Is this the first time Shaheen has been truly tested in his career?

He's quality. I think at times he looks a bit 'hittable' in this format, sort of like Steyn

shaheen is 10-12kmph slower than usual

not sure if he is hiding some injury to play the WC

 

[SteveNZ]

Oh so Mickey, playing in a 120,000k stadium in India against the home team felt like a BCCI event...

What a sook. WTF is he hoping to achieve, other than to dip into the excuse barrel there? Didn't seem to be an issue at 150-2.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

But he did mentioned that it wasn’t an excuse

 

[Socerer 01]

But he did mentioned that it wasn’t an excuse

we all know thats the real excuse

 

[Sunil1z]

Is this True that Pak haven’t hit a 6 in first 10 overs in ODI in 2023 ? Can someone confirm?

Is this channel popular among Pakistan fans? I find the discussion on this much better than what most Indian TV and YouTube channels are serving up despite more expensive studios and healthy sponsorships.

Wasim Akram, Misbah ul Haq, Shoaib Malik and Moin Khan. Great cast.

 

[Pup Clarke]

Tbf I can sympathise with Arthur. These guys are professionals, but must be pretty deflating with literally none of your supporters able to attend

Very popular in India also .

 

[fishyguy]

As a neutral was hoping for a good game...what a let down!

 

[ankitj]

Very popular in India also .

I have been watching this cricbuzz talk show hosted by Gaurav Kapoor. The issue I have with Gaurav Kapoor is that he is so good at public speaking and hosting shows that actual cricket becomes a sideshow. Too much clever wit, humour and pop culture references inserted.

Do they still have Ashish Nehra ? He does good analysis. Last year before IND vs ENG SF in WT20 he had predicted that if India bats first they will lose.

 

[honestbharani]

I mean the difference in numbers was more down to him being forced into the middle order when he was still a young bloke right? From memory he started doing well as soon as he moved to opening.

He was always a MO bat though. If anything, he was forced into opening by MSD and that has changed it around completely for him.

 

[centurymaker]

at least 2K Pak Supporters would have been nice but a few thousand in the middle of 120,000 home supporters would not have made any difference.

thala for a reason

thala for all the seasons

there were long periods of silence from our supporters tbf where they would have made some difference but Arthur shouldn’t be bitching about it when their team has bigger problems

Nehra and Sehwag are there. I endure the show for few and far between nuggets from ex-cricketers.

 

[honestbharani]

I mean, the point is very valid and it does suck that we could not get more Pakistan cricket fans over here for the WC but bringing it up now and in this way is just sour grapes, plain and simple.
