Asia Cup 2023: Pakistan (128) suffer a massive 228-run defeat against India (356/2) in the Super 4 clash

[YousafTheBeast]

16 dot balls in 3 overs

 

[Shafi]

Great batting by Fakhar 0 of 8

 

[kron]

what an attack india have or maybe we have too many tail enders

both. India have a good attack. Not the but very good. Their third bowler in shardul is average so he can be exploited.

Aussies and I would say England have the best overall attack.

Pakistan India and SA are all similar.

Lanka if they can get chameera Lahiru fit they can be a dangerous side.

Imagine pathirana lahiru and chameera. That csn rival any attack in the world.

 

[castortroy]

16 dot balls in 3 overs

Bumrah has been unplayable

 

[Firebat]

A riveting battle between Imam and Extras to be the top scorer, tied at the minute.

 

[Markhor]

That is a fabulous take from Ishan Kishan !

 

[ExpressPacer]

Not saying Bumrah is chucking but he sure does look like it.

 

[msb314]

Need to get a move on

 

[castortroy]

This was never a 350 wicket

 

[Devadwal]

That is a fabulous take from Ishan Kishan !

He is still learning

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

We are bowling a tad short....not pitching it up enough to get them driving...

 

[PakPremi]

Bumrah a class above all the pak bowlers

He is but so far Naseem first spell was better.

 

[ChTab]

I thought Fakhar was an agressive batter 0 of 8 hahhahahah

 

[IAJ]

Not saying Bumrah is chucking but he sure does look like it.

Not an action which is pleasant to the eyes, but very effective.

 

[kron]

Wow I thought Rahul and kohli were boring to watch. This is worse than watching paint dry.

 

[Devadwal]

Why Pakistan fan's worrying about run rate? Just survive first 6 over then you can attack

 

[Nado_]

Let the ball get older and then shots will be easier . Top bowling from Bumrah , how do you play those deliveries!

 

[IAJ]

I thought Fakhar was an agressive batter 0 of 8 hahhahahah

The ball is moving, after 5 overs they should start playing their shots

 

[King_Babar]

Siraj asking for slip, our bowlers dont talk to captain while bowling.

 

[IAJ]

Decent pace from Siraj bhai

 

[Cover Drive Six]

Total 16.
Extras 8.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Pak scoring at a good clip with not much contribution from the batsmen.

 

[IAJ]

147 kph Ma sha Allah

 

[kron]

Pandya might be hard to play here as he gets bounce.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

Confidence is a great asset for a batsman

 

[aukhan]

Fakhar struggling. Its better to rest him until he regains his form.

 

[Devadwal]

Need a wickets just in case of rain to negotiate DLS

 

[JattMaula]

That was coming.

 

[Major]

gone

 

[Devadwal]

Gone

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Imam out

 

[Shafi]

Why Pakistan fan's worrying about run rate? Just survive first 6 over then you can attack

Apart from Babar or Imam (if you call him batsman) there is none. Don't think we can even score 100. Fakhar is never good batsman to start with. This guy is timid like kitten.

 

[ExpressPacer]

Why Pakistan fan's worrying about run rate? Just survive first 6 over then you can attack

Naive fans who watch too much franchise T20.

 

[Devadwal]

Jassi you beauty

 

[IAJ]

Ab Line lagg jayegi. A jao captain Babar

 

[Zerotohero]

One mission passed Imam down
Next get Babar before 20 overs
India will win the game

 

[aukhan]

OUT Imam

 

[kron]

Good ball. Not much we can do there. Just try and see him off. Bumrah. Attack shardul jadeja and pandya.

 

[Shafi]

Parchi Imam out.

 

[castortroy]

Pak will be skittles out for 160 in these swinging conditions

 

[boomboomcheema]

Babar under so much pressure to perform when Kohli has done it for his team.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Too good for Imam.

 

[castortroy]

Some fans actually thought pak would chase this lol

 

[Savak]

Bhumra is a class apart from our over rated duo of Shaheen, Naseem, Rauf. The guy has won India a series in Australia which triumps everything our bowlers have done.

 

[King_Babar]

Imam out

Not surprising, he is dud against half decent sides.

 

[bones]

Babar under so much pressure to perform when Kohli has done it for his team.

As it should be.

 

[Major]

Isan Kishan saying dont review.

Meanwhile our rizwan probably saying to review even from dugout

 

[Devadwal]

Just missed

 

[castortroy]

This is a 250 wicket at best. India just have far superior batters

 

[Thanos]

Rizwan would've reviewed this.

 

[PakPremi]

Babar under so much pressure to perform when Kohli has done it for his team.

You think Babar thinks about that.?
All his concern is he and his team score some runs. Bumrah looking dangerous now.

 

[Nado_]

just a bad outing for us , we can bounce back , we always have our customary crap game per tournament , need to gain confidence from the Sri Lanka game

 

[Devadwal]

Shabash bumrah

 

[IAJ]

Oh Allah khair kare.

 

[castortroy]

Unplayable

 

[sweto]

Baba was thinking rain will white wash. He should take batting first. But then again he knew his team not good enough.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Pak needs to look to survive for another 3 or 4 overs. Batting will become super easy when Shardul comes to bowl.

 

[vprasanna83]

Great bowling by Bumrah

 

[Ali Active]

That’s unplayable

 

[Spitfire]

Rizwan would've reviewed this.

 

[YousafTheBeast]

incoming 60 ball 50 for Babar before he departs.

 

[IAJ]

This rubbish myth about Pak bowlers v Indian batsman should be banned officially.
Indian bowlers are World class bowlers.

 

[Nado_]

Save some Izat and don’t lose by more than 100 runs

 

[PakPremi]

Pakistan team need Saud at 4.

 

[castortroy]

This is going to be a heavy loss

 

[Spitfire]

Bhumra is a class apart from our over rated duo of Shaheen, Naseem, Rauf. The guy has won India a series in Australia which triumps everything our bowlers have done.

More truer words have not been said before...

 

[castortroy]

Bumrah is levels above afridi

 

[PakLFC]

Walks in the great Babar. Just a matter of time before he walks off with his head bowed down! Firstly he can't bat well when it matters then he makes the most absurd decisions as captain. This match will tell us why Kohli is in a different league to Babar.

 

[ChTab]

Babar up against Bumrah. Now we will see whether Babar is really worth the hype or he's just an ordinary batter

 

[mominsaigol]

India will win, but again its because of the middle order being exposed

 

[adzzy786]

Fakhar getting frustrated

 

[PakPremi]

Making a lot of Gill catch even Boycott mother on law would had caught that.

 

[Omer2002]

Look at an Indian batters techniques and look at our...i mean I am completely ignoring Jarooo marring Fakhars as he doesn't exist in my dictionary but imam ..babar and rest no where near them i can see so much gap btw bat and their body.

 

[castortroy]

This is embarrassing

 

[owenhcricket]

People fail to understand just how difficult it is to bat under lights at the best of times, to do it successfully at Colombo, especially after the heavy rain they have had is a very tough ask. As was bowling with a wet outfield, an injured bowler, a semi injured bowler and a bad call at the toss.

Pakistan's best chance is to negate the early seam and swing and to start hitting out post the 10 over or so.

 

[King_Babar]

Fakhar is never same since years now!

 

[7sins]

Even a dumb person knows that ball does Alot more under lights in SL pitches so that was absolute idiotic decision by babar and Co to bowl first

 

[Savak]

Already the difference b/w the Pakistani and Indian bowling attack is there. Indian bowlers are sticking to a disciplined line length whereas the Pak bowlers were all over the place with no plan

 

[msb314]

Magnificent innings from Fakhar- I hope this gets added to the Wisden Top 5 GOAT

 

[emranabbas]

Time for Babar to prove hes a world class player like virat
