Comment from cricinfo:

According to ICC T20 rankings top 6 teams (England, SA, SL, WI, NZ, Pakistan ) will easily make super 8. Australia has been always consistent in top series. So they will also easily make it. Out of all the other worst teams there is no way Bangladesh, Ireland or Zimbabwe can make it because all of them have best teams in their groups. So it's gonna be a world war between Afghanistan and India for the 8th place as both teams are equally competitive

Our bowlers usually stand up where it matters. We defended 260 agianst you guys in the ODI world cup. We defend 141 and 154 against you guys in T20s

For possibilities

Batting pitch => India chases : India win
Batting pitch => Pakistan chases : India win
Bowling pitch => Pakistan chases : India win
Bowling pitch => India chases : Pakistan win

I guess that gives India a winning chance of 75%.

And you guys call them CricIndo :yk
 
India in my 20 years of watching, have kept their cool in the key moments in World Cup games v Pakistan.

I said that the team that takes its catches would win the semi-final. The same would be the case if we meet in the tournament this year.
 
Has the games started? we're already have 245+ posts!

Nazir and tanvir hit and miss players mostly the latter, I don't expect much in this tourney. No point playing India, secret treaty signed by Pak to lose on all world cup matches.
 
so to go through to the semis, Pakistan will have to beat South Africa and Australia which is going to be tough.I can only see 1 win out of these 2.

Ask any neutral fan and he will laugh at ur bowlers.If you defended a score against Pakistan then it was mainly coz of Pak's batters inability rather than any thing else.
If your bowling was even decent, ur team wouldn't be where it is at test level despite having world class batters.

Not our teams fault if your guys are "inable" :wasim. (Get some able guys fast na...getting sick of this excuse)

Nobody is denying that we are poor at tests. But nobody can deny that we are world champs either:akhtar

Who is making an excuse? did i ever question ur defeat or question ur World champ status?
I only pointed out the obvious fact that your bowling is poor and to say that it delivers when it matters is a laugh.
BTW, why don't you get some decent bowlers fast na...

Yes they are poor - but the results speak for themselves as to whether they deliver or not.

We are happy with a bowling unit that delivers results vs having phaast bowlers who are only there for bragging rights :)
 
Are these warm up games official T20i or just for practice. I see they are showing up in the ICC rankings predictor I thought warm up games were just practice games sometime played by 12-13 players to give everyone a go.

drop Nazir and play Arafat. Jamshed can open with Hafeez !

cant wait for this epic encounter, and specially Yuvraj !

At a moment Virat kohli an Raina equals to all Pak batting lineup. lets c with how big margin India is going to win. Insha Allah Pakistan will not let them win so easily.
 
I seriously feel the Pakistan line up is being underrated here! Against the Indian bowlers, they'll be made to look like World beaters...! But they will continue to struggle against quality attacks...

We also restricted Aussies to 260 runs on an Indian pitch in the WC. Our ODI bowling is not too shabby and particularly in importan matches they stand up. The entire WC is a prime example

BTW are you sure we have world class batters in tests? We dont anymore. When we did, we were world no 1 in tests. We won test series in england, NZ, WI, drew 1-1 in South Africa with almost same bowlers

Nothing can be proven by selected examples, you won the WC primarily coz of ur great batting.Just to give you an example,Afridi did wonders with the bat in Wc 20/20 final and i have seen his fan saying that he delivered when it mattered, however the fact remains that he is still a tailender.
Your bowling lineup with Kumble, Harb and relatively young Khan was pretty decent, but thats not the case anymore.Your test batting without Dravid and Lax might not be as good but it still have some world class players.Months back you were saying that Indian bowling collectively as a unit is brilliant, now they are being said to stand up in important matches.Keep defending them, they sure need some support.

You think so? we have Nazir,Malik and Afridi, and regardless of the quality of the bowling attack, they are walking wicket.Even if they are against club level bowlers, they still will struggle to chase any decentg total.

Yes it sure does, your test ranking is a proof of that.

And i'm happy that you are contend with them, SA batters will be happy to face them too in the comming series.I guess ur bowlers do keep everyone happy afterall.

Yes at present. But the same results state that we have gone to the pinnacle of all three formats in the last five years, with the same bowlers.

And i have already stated as to why you were doing so well previously, however now things have changed and i don't see you doing wonders at test level in near future.

Yes - Our test team is transitioning and as an Indian fan I will not have high hopes on them in the next 2 years.

But our limited overs side was, is and will be competitive with the same bowlers.

Your OD side will be competitive primarily coz of ur batters.Because of the batting strength, India will continue to have a good OD side even without great contribution from the bowlers.

Wrong, from winning the WC, to being no 1 in tests, its our bowlers who stood up when it mattered. Its our bowlers who won us series in England, WI and NZ. It our bowlers who restircted the likes of Aus and Pak in the knockout games. Even in the finals, on a flat deck, SL were restricted for 275. Our bowlers have always stood up when it mattered. On the other hand, where only our batters performed and our bowlers didnt, like the CB series and the Asia cup, we have always lost

Even in the past, Pak team has paid the price of underestimating our bowlers. I hope the players think exactly like you because then they will pay the price

Ask him , how does India have 2 bowlers (Zaheer and Yuvraj) in top Wkt.Takers list in 2011 ODI WC ? Also in 2007 T20, Irfan and RP Singh were in that list.

100%. Our 'trundlers' get the most wickets in key matches - case in point Nehra and Patel in the Mohali SF and Irfan Pathan in 2007 WT20 final.

Now just wait for people to come and say that it is only because their batsman played poor shots or gifted their wickets :yk (as if the bowler deserves no credit in getting the wickets!)
 
Afghanistan 56/2 (5.3/20 ov) v Sri Lanka A
Australia 36/1 (6/20 ov) v New Zealand
Zimbabwe 41/1 (7.5/20 ov) v Bangladesh
India 32/2 (5/20 ov) v Sri Lanka
 
Afghanistan 104/2 (9/20 ov) v Sri Lanka A
Australia 56/3 (9.2/20 ov) v New Zealand
Zimbabwe 68/2 (11.4/20 ov) v Bangladesh
India 51/4 (8.3/20 ov) v Sri Lanka
 
Afghanistan 209/7 (20/20 ov) v Sri Lanka A
Australia 139/6 (20/20 ov) v New Zealand
Zimbabwe 134/6 v Bangladesh 0/0 (0.1/20 ov)
India 146/5 (20/20 ov) v Sri Lanka
 
Afghanistan scores above 200. Don't know how bad the SL A team is. Still a good afford. Should give them confidence ahead of wc matches.
 
Afghanistan 209/7 (20/20 ov)
Sri Lanka A 155/9 (17.5/20 ov)... Wow. Afganisthan on the verge of Victory..!!!
 
Why did we get our practice match with minnows. We deserve better practice.

Those are decent ODI bowlers. The biggest of all was Venkatesh Prasad getting most (or is it all?) of his ODI 5fers vs Pakistan. LOL.
Remember Pak collapsed under 90 chasing 125 once upon a time against India?

^its a bloody warm up, calm down eh khhhaaa
Click to expand...

The words warm up are [empty words] when you're talking about Pakistan vs India. There's a reason it is the only warm up match being televised. It's a rare occasion, where a vast amount of pakistani and indian fans put their life on hold, forget about everything to witness the extravaganza that is PAKISTAN V INDIA :sami
 
I kno a lot of ppl are psyched but really this is just a warm up and i'm sure both sides will rest several key players. I have a feeling we'll rest ajmal
 
We might face India or England some where further..So Ajmal needs to be rested so that they do not get any practice against him at all to plan...
 
I do hope Pakistani players don't use this game as an opportunity to make some extra cash.Otherwise trolls here will claim that Pakistan lost because match was fixed.
 
If we win, it's a match, who cares about it being a warmup?
If we lose, it's a warmup
 
well seems like fans are already watching the match, the game hasn't even started nor the day has arrived but we all are up in numbers. Lets be honest, after all the gap of not playing each other we are hoping that we will meet them in unforced manner in which they will be hosting. So on the day of this warmup match I want the cricket to win. None of the games have been on tele so far, any chance of this being on tele ?
 
I can't wait. We can play 11 batsmen and 11 fielders. It shouldn't be an issue then. All players will have enough time to rest.

You can watch it at any place in the world provided a PC and decent net.

I watch in my office even if I have to minimize and semi maximize 50 times just to watch a single ball of the entire over.
 
Lol. Not sure why some are making this match out to be like a final. It's a warm up match, nothing more, nothing less.

I think Ajmal should be rested.
 
I am gonna get up at 2 am to watch it .
