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

[Devadwal]

So it's was just last minute change hope Iyer is fit for next match as we need him in World Cup

 

[BouncerGuy]

Rohit says, "Iyer picked up a spasm in the back very late. Now it all makes sense why KL Rahul ran in to do drills late before the toss. Seems like Rahul was not going to play but Iyer's late back spasm has given him an outside entry into the XI."

Babar says, "Moisture is there. High-intensity match yes, but we are going match-to-match. We are ticking in all departments. Same team."

More like a vague reason to accomadate KL?

 

[heddie19]

We are in the same stadium as yesterday’s match between Sri Lanka and Bangladesh?

Yes sir

 

[NeVerMind]

But indian batsmen .... can rain fire.

And our bowlers can bowl torpedoes...have some courage, man!

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Lots to play for

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

More like a vague reason to accomadate KL?

Isnt KL Rahul a better test player?

 

[Adi_62945]

Wait for rohit and kohli today. Phainta awaiting.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

And our bowlers can bowl torpedoes...have some courage, man!

Insha Allah, I have a feeling shahdab will bowl well today.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

Wait for rohit and kohli today. Phainta awaiting.

Yes, it is expected though I hope we will keep them in check. Rohit will be looking for that inswinger again.

 

[lahoriyah1234]

Good for Pakistan…This will help Pakistan for the 14 Oct match. Pakistan want to test them against India.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Are we ready?

 

[Farah Sohail]

Wait for rohit and kohli today. Phainta awaiting.

Thats what I fear.. Kohli can give phainta to our bowlers today on a batting friendly track

 

[Major]

Pakistan vs india and Pakistan bowling first, always gives you goosebumps

 

[emranabbas]

Good shout by Babar to bowl

 

[Firebat]

Our bowlers would have been sureshot success under lights. Even 230 would challenge them.

These look like the best batting conditions there will be in this game.

To be honest you're spot on here. I'm now realising the prospect of Rohit Gill Kohli domination in batting friendly conditions.

 

[lahoriyah1234]

Thats what I fear.. Kohli can give phainta to our bowlers today on a batting friendly track

Kohli ke Saath..Hamara paas bhi balla hain.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

Thats what I fear.. Kohli can give phainta to our bowlers today on a batting friendly track

I heard it is green wicket?

 

[Major]

some swingg

 

[Major]

hes bowling at 143. so he is fit

 

[Farah Sohail]

I heard it is green wicket?

Some ppl saying good for batting wicket

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

Thats what I fear.. Kohli can give phainta to our bowlers today on a batting friendly track

When our bowlers are hyped, then things go worng.

 

[lahoriyah1234]

When our bowlers are hyped, then things go worng.

Any Team can have a bad day. They are human after all.

 

[Digital]

It's getting a bit dark here...windy too in Colombo

 

[Major]

Rohit hits shaheen for a six.

 

[Ahmed216]

Poor decision at the toss

 

[Rana]

Shot Rohit

 

[Adi_62945]

Started by rohit

 

[Ahmed216]

Poor lines first over once again.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Hit the wrong line there

 

[Adi_62945]

our openers cant hit a six in first over to a bowler like shaheen. Only a trait found in indian batting

 

[Major]

drop or didnt reach

 

[Nikhil_cric]

1. Moisture underneath the wicket
2. Ball comes to the bat better under the lights
3. Rain predicted later which may lead to a reduced target so will benefit the chasing team

So all signs point to bowl first if you win the toss which is what Pakistan have done...

This . By the 2nd innings , it will come on better. Good decision by Bobby.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

I am a bit behind

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Good try there Shaheen

 

[Devadwal]

Dropped

 

[Firebat]

Was that a drop?

 

[Devadwal]

Gill just play first few over pls

 

[emranabbas]

That looked like a drop

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Was that a drop?

No

 

[Ahmed216]

Was that a drop?

Yes

 

[Adi_62945]

Rohit is looking in mood today

 

[Nikhil_cric]

our openers cant hit a six in first over to a bowler like shaheen. Only a trait found in indian batting

Lol. You clearly haven't been watching the Aussies bat

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

damn that was a drop.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Smashed by Rohit 4

 

[Inswing]

Rohit is in mood today

 

[Rana]

Hitman is on it today

 

[Major]

And slowly the knee jerk reaction will start in this thread by the usual suspects.

 

[Devadwal]

Lovely drive for four

 

[castortroy]

Looks like a good wicket

 

[Adi_62945]

Shadab will be a key today. Totally a spin friendly pitch today

 

[YousafTheBeast]

Get the spinners on

 

[castortroy]

Even if Indian don't bat well, they will still get 250 plus

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Shaheen bowling the legside line again gets hit for 4

 

[Ahmed216]

Good batting pitch. Poor decision babar

 

[lahoriyah1234]

Shaheen will get Rohit wait and watch

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

shotain ....

 

[Farah Sohail]

Phainta overloading

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Back to back boundaries by Gill

Clipped this time

Looking positive today

 

[Devadwal]

Gill aram se

 

[King_Babar]

Shaheen too full and predictable

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

didnt realize rohit has almost 10000 runs... wow

 

[Omer2002]

Yes a spin wicket but we are playing one less ..can never get the balance right. They need to judge the wickets..obviously india are here to smash us today

 

[Nado_]

Wrong lines by Shaheen

 

[castortroy]

300 on here

 

[Ahmed216]

Lovely batting Gill

 

[Devadwal]

Rain can break the momentum so please god no rain today

 

[Rana]

class by Gill

 

[Nado_]

Attack the off stump keep it simple

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

shaheen jinxed.

 

[Inswing]

This is a brilliant start by India.

 

[Digital]

Drizzling...

 

[Rana]

Rohit aik dafa Naseem ki bhi tassali karwa de

 

[Saj]

Different mindset and body language from India so far.

Big test for the Pak bowlers.

 

[boomboomcheema]

Bad start Pakistan, match as good as over already

 

[lahoriyah1234]

Babar ne aaj kaya khaya tha…Toss jeet ke bowling…

 

[boomboomcheema]

Won't be long before Pakistan fans start praying for rain.

 

[lahoriyah1234]

Bad start Pakistan, match as good as over already

Nah dekh bhai.

 

[Devadwal]

Look at the Shaheen face after the over

 

[Nado_]

Shaheen thinking he can just bowl wicket ball every delivery. Just attack the top of off and then add in the attacking delivery as a surprise
