*Official* Asia Cup 2018 in UAE

[Shri]

True. But there is a "Ho".

And it starts with a 'zo'.

 

[cnerd123]

Hyped for tonight's game. Pakistan look a solid unit, I think we're ****ed if we turn out a similar performance against them. But we'll probably have Bumrah, Hardik, Lokesh all back in the XI. First game was always going to be tough coming off such a long tour. Probably still shaking off the jet lag, plus conserving some energy for today. In a way it's good they've been pushed so hard - they're going to be ready for a fight now.

 

[harsh.ag]

Yeah, and why the **** Shardul Thakur gets games ahead of them? Stupid team management.

Shardul is 100% Mumbai lobby selection, just can't see any other rational reason.

Shami I get because he's had a long England tour. Umesh Yadav not bowling here is a dumbass call

 

[ankitj]

Just checked the squads. Umesh, Shami and even Washington Sundar are not in the squad. I get that you want to rest some players, but surely you only should be playing players who have at least a small chance of making to the world cup squad. Thakur and Axar Patel probably aren't in that group.

 

[weldone]

Why Axar Patel is higher in the pecking order than Ravindra Jadeja is beyond me.

 

[artvandalay]

Think khaleel gets another go today ? Makes me angry seeing bhuvi on these dead uae pitches that really don't have anything for him. The 3 months or so we really could have used him and that he was tailor made for he wasn't available.

The HK highlights are on for those who missed out.

Tough call to drop him but it has to be done. I wouldn't mind if he replaces Bhuvi though.

Dhawan
Rohit
Rahul
Pandey
Jadhav
Karthik
Pandya
Bhuvi
Kuldeep
Chahal
Bumrah

Is what I'd play given the squad. Obviously we're more likely to see Rayudu and Dhoni in there though.

 

[Daemon]

jeez HK took some really good catches yesterday. McKechnie has looked good in both games.

Don't see Jadeja and Ashwin being considered in LOI in the near future, at least not till the World Cup as they're not in the World Cup plans

 

[Borges]

There is a lot of manufactured synthetic excitement about today's utterly inconsequential game.

 

[cnerd123]

Interesting decision to bat first from Pakistan. Figured they would have backed themselves to beat India in a runchase after how yesterday unfolded.

Pandya and Bumrah in, but no Lokesh

 

[weldone]

Lol I feared this - Rahul was dropped yesterday, not rested!

 

[cnerd123]

While we wait for this game to begin...

[Daemon]

wtf no Rahool. Can't they see it's just a matter of time before he's a world beater in the format. ffs.

 

[Daemon]

Harsh to leave Pandey out considering his ridiculous form, especially for Karthik..

 

[trundler]

I have a feeling Zaman will fail today but India will concede some lower order troll runs.

Malik is India's nemesis, guaranteed he gets runs

 

[trundler]

KP and Deano are the 2 most annoying non-SC commentators I've heard.

KP with Ramiz is hell.

 

[trundler]

Good on Bhuvi for exposing Imam for the fraud he is.
