5th Match - India v Pakistan

Whatever it takes!!!
I dont know what the heck the guy who posted earlier about the crowds was on about. Looks like a full house with people still queued up to get in? Maybe more of the crowd is back in the shade due to the heat, which often happens in the SC and rest of Asia.

It's hot af out there. Crowd will pick up when it cools down I reckon.

Ravi Shastri to Wasim Akram on comms - Imam has been run out more times than any other Pak players since his debut. His uncle is at the top of the list for run outs for Pak players. Do you think it runs in the famiy?

Wasim - No comments, coz Inzy may get hurt.

Sunny G - I dont think it runs in the family, Ravi. Coz then it will be run out. 😎😎😎😎

How many spinners have Pak picked for this game? Are they expecting Agha to play a big role later this evening with the ball?

And that Khushdil guy. They have picked two finger spinners as allrounders but their allrounders are better balanced. Salman is a batting allrounder and Khushdil is a bit of a LO specialist type allrounder.

It really isn't.
The Ashes is a cricketing rivalry,
India vs Pakistan is now a special event sold to the highest bidder for TV rights in every tournament . It's the biggest cricket match for non cricketing reasons.
You are spot on mate. This toxic rivalry is unfrounately more famous for toxic religous and political reasons🤦‍♂️

As a big fan of both teams I have to agree , India vs Pakistan has hurt the integrity of the game with how it has been handled in the last 15 years..

These guys can't even compromise to play Test cricket at neutral venues ..
A lack of India vs Pakistan matches with the rise of T20 has hurt Test cricket interest in Asia a lot.
