Kohli and Yuvi got some pretty neat deliveries.

Both played terrible shots. Amazing that after all these failures over the past year, the response of these players to a wicket with some movement is still to fluke their way out playing shot a minute.

Eh I dunno, I suppose they would have been better off defending than attempting to play a shot, but I felt the deliveries they received were slightly more difficult than the openers, Sehwag in particular payed a totally loose shot. Gambhir idk wtf he was doing.

Anyways doesn't matter, they're all out and they all deserve to be out.

Meanwhile Pak's fast bowlers are losing a bit of steam, time to bring on spin IMO.

Been saying this for about 2 years now, massively overrated player. I don't want to criticize him in this particular match too much since the rest of our bats haven't done **** either, but he shouldn't be anywhere near our limited overs side. Maybe test matches, but I don't understand why we keep picking him. He's no better than Jadeja with the bat, and Jedeja is a solid bowler and a much much better fielder.

Yuvraj's shot was awful. Ball was coming in to the right handers. Means its going away to the left hander. But nah, plays inside the line of the ball and tries to glance it.

Ishant going to be that hard to handle is he?

Nah I kinda agree, not much batting in Pakistan's lineup.

for chasing a modest total on a dicey track this is the ideal batting line up Younis, Msbah adn Azhar are our bankers when it comes to backing on your defensive game.Though I would not like to see Younis in an OD side.

yes, we will be 2 down for 5 in the first 5 overs.

in the next 35 overs we will make 95 more for the loss of 2 more wickets

And we will be all out in 49.5 overs trying to make another 90-100 runs in the last 10 overs

Yeah just remembered the dusty pitch with a few low scoring matches in the World cup.

Completely forgot about those, I can't seem to recall India playing many ODI's at Chennai, maybe that's why.

Raina's got a nice opportunity here to get a 100, usually doesn't get the chance to bat too many overs.
