Wahab needs to bringout some skills like Amir.....Pace and short pitch doesnt's intimidate the Indian batsmen anymore
 
Wahab will have nightmares from 2012.

I think its safe to say Pak bowling is one man attack.. but #respect for Amir and Kohli both.. It was a fierce battle of talent and class
 
You clearly have no idea how battle between two world class players work.

One was half decision and other didn't hold on and he scored two fours of him.
Enough to say he won and not to forget when the bowler is pumped up as amir was, surviving against him itself means you won the battle.

Twist it however you want ,amir owned him easily
 
India seem to have weathered the initial storm inflicted by Amer

It should be an easy chase for them from hereon as the total is so small, barring a miracle
 
seriously?

Kohli edged Amir twice, survived a 50-50 lbw, got beaten once or twice and scored 10 from 15 facing Amir.

how the hell did he win the battle?

Bro, this was amir's den and he not only survived but smacked two fours also.

Phatta is kohli's den and will see who will win then.

Context of match matters too.
 
So you too watch Mikey mouse cricket, I thought were a test purist :yk2
I'd love to be watching, but I live in Australia, where no channels have bought the rights to either the Asia Cup or World T20.

Cricket fans apparently aren't interested and T20 fans don't buy Pay TV subscriptions, they attend primary school instead. :)
 
Somebody told me (@ChachaCricket) herein PP (in another thread) that Wahab will be the most destructive bowler on a green pacy track.

Yes, indeed he is but for his own team :P

Very poor over that was from Wahab.

50 up for India

34 more to get
 
It was an even contest on a difficult pitch. Apart from the close LBW call and one swing and miss, Kohli was hitting balls in middle of bat

Not just one lbw shot and swing and miss.

0.3 - Mohammad Amir to Kohli, 1 run, a fuller and wider ball outside off, Kohli tries to drive but gets a thick outside edge to third man

2.3 Mohammad Amir to Kohli, 1 leg bye, another massive appeal for lbw, the umpire signals leg byes too so there was no inside edge! Kohli moved forward and across to turn the ball through square leg but missed. The ball swung into him and hit him on the thigh. That might have clipped the top of the stumps, really, really close

4.1 Mohammad Amir to Kohli, 1 run, edged between slip and gully to third man! Amir slanted the short of a length ball across the right-hander, Kohli was on the front foot and poked at it

4.6 Mohammad Amir to Kohli, no run, Amir goes around the wicket and gets the ball to hold its line from a good length outside off, Kohli prods and is beaten

Conditions were in favour of Amir but he did trouble Kohli a fair bit. Plus a very close lbw shout.
 
Raina LOL!!! Utter pleasure witnessing a talent like Amir.Also,gutted at the same time thinking this guy missed 5 damn years.

The only World class talent Pakistan has at the moment.

On a serious note, well bowled Amir, I hope we can give him a good phainty on flat patta when he comes to India :srini
 
Amir save Afridi's humiliation!!! Without Amir we would lost this match by 10 wickets
 
Wahab bowling all over the place. Pakistan lost the momentum completely after that over. Will be tough to wrestle it back from here.
 
I'd rather people stopped trying to find out who won the battle between Kohli and Amir.

Amir was sensational and virat has been classy too both of them have been brilliant. Just enjoy the talent and game on display

relax sif , you dont even have to say conditions where in favour of bowlers .
 
Game over pathetic stuff by wahab. Can only bowl on bouncy tracks. Can't seam or swing at all

Wasn't a compliment Sify :yk, btw you see Yuvi hanging in there, way better than raina easily :srini

I know it wasn't.

But I turned into one.

Too bad you didn't get it. :yk

Yuvi was embarassing at first but yeah he is playing fine now. The problem with him is that while in other tracks Rohit, Raina come into play...he is mostly a liability unless the ball is pitched in the arc.
 
Amir was bowling good length, afridi told him bowl short
Samee can seam the ball and Afridi took him off.
Gibss was right once in his life saying pakistan cricket cannot get better as afridi is around it.
 
Really impressed with Kohli's ability to soak pressure

Those were normal attempted and miss and nothing special if you have seen the match.
Only lbw ball and "edge on gully area" ball was close to "he was at sea" balls.
 
What is with this T20 power thing?

How on Earth is David Miller ranked 2nd LOL. I doubt he scored much in national colours, and if you can't perform for your national side how can you get there?

If Yuvi was embarrassing then what word would you use for Rohit and raina :yk

sorry mate, that is not winning. he was in no way in control or scoring or rotating the strike, he did survive and he did look much better than the others, but a win it is not.

Well he knew if he survive team wins, so surviving was his goal. He did rotate strike as well a bit. On this pitch against that bowling which batsmen would do the same? Amla? AB? He got a lot of balls in the middle of the bat which any other batsman couldn't do against Amir
 
Wahab has looked worse of all, since he cannot swing the ball....


This match end up being Kholi Vs Amir... Although Amir faired well, but Kholi will be having the last laugh...

Pakistani batsmen are too impotent :facepalm:
 
Wahab Riaz has officially thrown away any hope Pakistan had, absolutely pathetic bowling. He literally has no skill with the ball.

Since T20 international are so less, all league matches are also considered
 
Can somebody please please record PTV post match discussion & upload in a thread.
 
Good win for India. And big players rise in big matches. #Kohli...

Could have been more interesting if Pak would have made 120 at least
 
Even a juicy full toss from wahab is not utilized by clueless Yuvi.

Somehow he is surviving all this madness :D
 
It's unfortunate for Sami. PAK 'll play Imad or Nawaz next match & THICK TANK don't have the balls or brains to drop Wahab (clocked 150KM, therefore made the day for Pakistanis), so Sami 'll be dropped.
