Asia Cup 2023: Super 4: Pakistan vs India | 10-11 September | Colombo | India innings

Kohli lucky to be still there, Naseem should have caught that.
 
Kohli with the 6 against right arm spinner easily done. Missing quality left arm spinner, Pak.
 
Naseem shah had no intentions to take catch of Virat
Our boys are just hoping rain comes and puts them out of their misery.

That was the case yesterday, and that will be the case today.

Misfields, dropped catches, jogging to the ball rather than attacking it etc

Quite clear they do not want to be out there but are just going through the motions.
 
Old man Kohli is doing all the huffing and puffing. KL boy is already satisfied with his effort.
 
that should had been hit wciekt.. kohli got away dammit
 
Just tuning in, I see Naseem, Afridi and Rauf have between them enough overs. Why is he persisting with Iftikhar?
 
Batting isn’t easy on this wicket, our boys will not get anywhere near this total if the match goes the distance.
 
Naseem is a poor fielder. He should work on his fielding just like Haris did.
 
As soon as pace comes. As in anyone who can move the ball ad decent pace like naseem, kohli ans kl Rahul struggle. They are very overrated players.
 
How did rauf get injured. Shaheen isn't doing good.

Naseem carrying the team single handedly. Everyone keeps saying shaheen is the best. Naseem is better.
 
A century to Rahul here will seal his position at No.4 in World Cup...! In a way (a bit unfortunately) he deserves it. Because Shreyas Iyer has his own issues with form, technique & fitness. SKY has issues with ODI... If Kohli had dropped down to No.4, then Rohit, Kishan & Gill would have occupied the top 3 spots and we would have got relieved from all the 3 mentioned above. Kohli's ego is hurting the Indian Team!

Ideal ODI batting line-up should be:

Gill
Jaiswal (Rohit should have given his way already by now, but...)
Kishan
Kohli (only eligible senior who deserves to play but only in ODI and not T20, but at No.4, his style/effectiveness now suits only to this position. He should play for another 1 or 2 years but certainly not till next world cup!)
Tilak Varma (should be groomed soon, especially because of the option of bowling that he brings!)
Pandya
 
It's not easy. The ball is not coming on to the bat and the lack of Haris Rauf plus Shadab giving gifts is the reason we find ourselves in this situation.

It doesn’t seem like a spinning track and no swing for the fast bowlers hence easily a 350 wicket
 
Power hitters who can generate their own power will be nasty here. You need to pitch it from back of length and mix in a lot of slow balls.

Indian trundler like thakur would enjoy it here. Bumrah and shami have pace so unless they mix it up here, this isn't the type of pitch that suits their bowling.
 
Naseem has bowled really well without luck. Fakhar is a very good fielder and very hard working. India will end up 50 more than they should had.
 
350-360 possible for India unless pakistan bowls some good deliveries here
 
It doesn’t seem like a spinning track and no swing for the fast bowlers hence easily a 350 wicket
But under lights ball will do strange things, when Indian fast bowlers will only attack the stumps
 
I think they shouldn't take the break after India's innings. They should try to get in at least 20 overs during Pakistan's innings (to ensure it is not a washout).
 
These 2 doing a Baba playing for there centuries won’t get away with it against better teams Ind should have gne for 375
 
we cant go with the babar special strategy hold wickets till 40th over and then go for a blast
 
Pakistani fans should start praying for the rain again because that's the only way we're getting anything from this game.
