Asia Cup 2023: Pakistan vs India | Match 3 | 2 September | Pallakele | India innings

[IAJ]

Pakistan will be happy with anything below 250.

200+ is a winning score against pakistani batsmen

 

[Nado_]

Too early for Rauf surely ??

 

[castortroy]

This wicket suits more the swing bowlers, not really the likes of Rauf

 

[Nado_]

Why the hell would you take Naseem off when he was getting the swing, Rauf is not swing bowler and he is better suited with the outfield spread .

 

[JattMaula]

Shaheen has more gears and he is very clever. Typically when it’s seaming, his pace is 135-140 in ODI and test cricket.
But when he’s in full flow with reverse or during 4 over T20 spells, he can crank it up to 150. That’s the difference between Shaheen with other world class seamers like Zaheer and others, they don’t have that 4th gear.

He was quicker as a teenager. Some bowlers get slower as they enter 20's.

 

[boomboomcheema]

Inter batting easy against Rahf. What an over. Against lost momentum.

 

[Inswing]

Iyer looking good.

 

[Ab Fan]

Bumping this up

I was talking about speeds. His pace is around 135 now.

 

[boomboomcheema]

Bad bad over another boundary

 

[castortroy]

Indian bowlers will be real handful on this pitch

 

[Major]

Rauf broke iyets bat

 

[Asad T]

Why the hell would you take Naseem off when he was getting the swing, Rauf is not swing bowler and he is better suited with the outfield spread .

yeah i agree, naseem was looking deadly

 

[Ahmed216]

Rauf bowling trash. Over excitement

 

[Saj]

Rauf releasing the pressure straight away.

Not very clever bowling in his first over.

 

[IAJ]

Pace helping the batter here, he looks in good form despite being away for a while

 

[Inswing]

Get Naseem on again please

 

[Farabi]

He was quicker as a teenager. Some bowlers get slower as they enter 20's.

Did you see the recent T20 games. He was cranking up to 150.

 

[castortroy]

Pak only playing 3 seamers?

 

[hitthestump]

Rauf is having his own competition with the speed gun rather than focusing on his line.

Didn't see the need to pull Naseem out of the attack personally.

 

[ChTab]

What an over from Rauf released all the pressure

 

[IAJ]

Needed a fourth seamer her. That's why India have an advantage with Pandya in the team

 

[TheSultan]

Pathetic captaincy from the most simpleton of all captains

 

[heddie19]

Whichever idiot at the BCCI decided to keep this tournament in Sri Lanka this time of the year, needs to be taken to task.

This whole tournament might get wiped out, it’s the monsoon season.

Jay Shah

 

[PakPremi]

Our fans have zero patience. One or two bad overs and the player is pathetic, nothing special, unfit etc.

Absolutely, waiting for Haris to be put down by our posters.

 

[Inswing]

Gill looking very nervous

 

[Firebat]

Hahaha this is absurd bowling. Unplayable!

 

[Ahmed216]

Shaheen is best white ball bowler in the world

 

[castortroy]

The Indian attack is tailor made for this wicket

 

[ChTab]

Gill looks like a tail-ender today, what a delivery from SSA

 

[Ab Fan]

@Major , stop needlessly reacting Haha on my posts.

 

[Omer2002]

The Indian attack is tailor made for this wicket

I agree their attack will be lethal here with kuldeep unplayable

 

[heddie19]

Kohli Gone

Big big wicket for Pakistan!!

Gilly boy's wicket is bigger nowadays.

 

[IAJ]

Let's see how this innings of Gill will end.

 

[castortroy]

Pak could have played ashraf here rather than a spinner

 

[Inswing]

Why BABAR why you have removed naseem

 

[Ahmed216]

Ihsanullah will end Rauf's career

 

[IAJ]

Why can't all the bolwers bowl well. Haris ruining the good start here.

 

[Major]

@Major , stop needlessly reacting Haha on my posts.

Maybe improve your posts

 

[msb314]

As always Haris getting hammered …

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Ihsanullah is much better than Rauf.

 

[Ahmed216]

Pak could have played ashraf here rather than a spinner

Poor selection for overcast conditions. They already had three spinners shadab Salman ifti

 

[IAJ]

Lucky wicket!

 

[chinaman00]

Brainless bowling Mr. Rauf. He just keeps running mindlessly and hands freebies to the Indian batsmen.

Hasnain and Ihasanullah should have been added to the squad.

 

[Markhor]

Against the run of play. Iyer was looking set. Big wicket.

 

[Ahmed216]

Short ball again causing Iyer's demise again.

 

[JattMaula]

What a catch!

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Iyer gone

 

[Inswing]

Great great catch

 

[Nado_]

just as I was literally writing that it makes no sense why Naseem was taken off . mr Rauf takes the wicket !!!

 

[CricVet]

Nice trap set up. Babar is evolving as a captain

 

[castortroy]

Pak won't chase 200 on this wicket

 

[mrtaim3]

That's a big wicket. Iyer was looking more comfortable than Gill.

 

[ChTab]

lucky wicket, Iyer was playing very well.

 

[IAJ]

Go for the kill boys

 

[ex-q-zit]

Shreyas and his short ball woes continue.

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Only rain can save India.
This India team is the weakest in past 10 years.

 

[Major]

tell shreyas this sint bangladesh

 

[Nado_]

Rauf may go for runs but he’s a striker at the same time . The gamble paid off it seems bringing him on

 

[MenInG]

Poor Haris - got so much stick and then WHAM!!!

 

[Farabi]

Why BABAR why you have removed naseem

This is why. Bumping it up.
Iyer struggle against bouncer and plan was to test him with Rauf. That was clearly a surprise bouncer

 

[Major]

so where are the experts that were bashing fakhar and bashign babar for bringin in haris rauf to bowl?

 

[chinaman00]

Pak won't chase 200 on this wicket

Let’s wait to see what Pakistan can or can’t chase or how the Indian bowlers will bowl on this wicket.

Right now, it’s India batting and Pakistan bowling. Let’s talk about that.

 

[MenInG]

Think we have a few talking about the demise of SSA

Please apologize now.

Still waiting.....

 

[mrtaim3]

Pak won't chase 200 on this wicket

Don't be too pessimistic

 

[Major]

The indian commentators are soo dull now

 

[Omer2002]

Rizzy is an awful keeper

 

[Ab Fan]

Maybe improve your posts

It's pretty top notch. Keeps everyone interested. I would suggest the same to you.

 

[Firebat]

Poor Haris - got so much stick and then WHAM!!!

No one wants to watch the game, just over-analysing every moment.

 

[Ahmed216]

so where are the experts that were bashing fakhar and bashign babar for bringin in haris rauf to bowl?

Let's be honest it was a lucky wicket

 

[Nado_]

Don't be too pessimistic

Imam is key on this wicket

 

[Asad T]

to what extent do you think it was a mistake to bat first?

 

[Major]

Let's be honest it was a lucky wicket

Nope

 

[Ab Fan]

Pandya will save India like always.

 

[hitthestump]

It would be smart to let Gill continue to struggle. Guy looks clueless.

 

[Farabi]

Naseem brought back to target Krishan with inswing

 

[mrtaim3]

Let's be honest it was a lucky wicket

Iyer struggles against bouncer. It was a trap which could have gone either way.

 

[shariqnoor]

I enjoy watching Naseem bowl with the new ball more than Shaheen. Naseem has become this metronomic bowler and his seaming deliveries that go both ways are a joy to watch.

 

[heddie19]

Pathetic captaincy from the most simpleton of all captains

Seriosuly? You come high to this forum?

 

[CricVet]

Imagine if Gill gets out after playing this test match sometime in next few overs. Indians will eat him alive.

 

[Ahmed216]

Iyer struggles against bouncer. It was a trap which could have gone either way.

Yes I felt luckily for us it went straight to the hands
