Bangladesh v India | Match 40, World Cup | 2nd July, 2019 | Edgbaston | India innings

Don't know why Dhoni fans get so riled up about Pant.

Supporting Pant doesn't mean insulting Dhoni or taking away his phenomenal legacy.
 
[MENTION=150133]DeadlyYorker[/MENTION] for a fact I know pant isn’t fit he is clearly fat and even on the field agisnt England I saw him he was terrible

Two different wickets and two completely different attack. There is absolutely no comparison between England & WIN attack. And that Somerset ground is also different. I don’t see any how it could have worked getting all out for 200 chasing an impossible target.
 
Rahul’s wicket was bad for BD. Blessing for India.
 
Pant is indeed special
With that technique he have scored 2 hundred in aus just incredible
 
Some clueless shot attempts from Pant, so far.

Seems over-excited

Edit: At last, connects one and gets a 6

Don't know why Pant fans get so riled up when fans criticise him and they bring up Dhoni's stats. See this goes both way. :inti

You would be correct if these were the 90's, all rahul does is score his 60's and 70's while getting nowhere near run a ball and that's on his best days.

There is something with this wicket after 30 overs. England slowed down rapidly as well after a very promising start, at one stage the looked good for 400.

No I’m referring to the dud that is lokesh rahul send in a pandya man I wanna see the ball get smashed out of the stadium on several occasions in one over and btw Sharma wasn’t tired he’s like this bowling is too crap it’s not even fun anymore I’m gonna let someone else have batting practice

Rohit's just scored a 100 couple days back. He's not a beast like Kohli or Dhoni and likes his samosas. Takes its toll :inzi
 
If I remember correctly, Pant opened his test account with a similar shot for 6 vs England
 
Pant is amazing too watch but he’s like gonna play and stupid one handed shot and fall over and get out he still thinks his is joke which he should seriously stop taking it as cause you don’t last long at this level with that attitude

Rohit sharma was compensating that, I have no issue with his innings today. I think he did well.
 
Pant looks like a hungry leopard every time he comes to bat! He may miss his prey, but he will never go out without hunting!
 
16 overs, 96 balls - max we can allow is 96. 300 is probably the extreme limit here to chase. India is threatening 350 though.
 
Still does not seems to be at his usual fluent best, but it was good shot for 4 from Kohli, there

Super fit? His tummy says otherwise. But, kudos to him that he doesnt let that effect his game.

yeah....he looks like he's never refused any second helpings of vada-pao or poona misal in recent times.....:)....but yeah...good that his game is un affected...:)
 
BD has pulled the things back decently in last few overs. Couple of wickets in the next 5-6 and you never know. Also BD batting has been performing really well throughout

Fitness is over rated Sharma is equally as good as kohli in my opinion and kl can be more fit than Arnold Schwarzenegger but he’ll never be quarter the batsman that Sharma is ever cricket is a skill based game not fitness

On different pitches. Off-late pitches are slowing down a lot during chasing. Anything over 300 will be very hard to chase today.
 
I would feel, anything less than a score of 340 from here on will be a bad finish (for us).

Yeah. That's why some of us know that Kohli is the superior all-round player but enjoy watching Rohit more with his imperfections.

But rohit shouldn't have to, rohit's job is to take his time to settle in and then score big, now he is having to take the scoring quickly job because rahul is too useless to score quickly, I have said this in earlier post as well. We have 2 dependable batsmen putting 1 of them under scoreboard pressure is plain stupid.
 
Anyone who compares any player in India or anywhere else in the world to dhoni is insult to India not the dhoni himself dhoni is beyond a legend he’s a brand not only that India will never produce another mahi
 
Match is Bangladesh vs India but chants about Pakistan from the crowd. These indian fans are obsessed with Pakistan. :))
 
Our specialist captain just stood there as the ball flew past him.

Does this loser have any shame?

This shameless individual with his useless team don't deserve to play in world cup.

BD has degraded the quality of the tournament.

If you watched the match Rohit started gasping for breath towards the end of his innings and sat down on pitch and hold his side as well. I think he's carrying a niggle if not then this is where fitness counts. Every day he's getting older, Rohit of 2 years ago would have made a double century today.. Fitness is crucial as well, thing with players like Rohit is they are not the fittest but they posses amazing natural abilities. If someone doesn't have both then it's cause of concern.
 
Sthu ganguly what match winner keeps saying pant is a match winner like the kids played 6 matches and he barely won his side matches in IPL this season 2 maybe like 2 max
 
Shemeless Mashrafe has totally lost his mind.

Wasting time in the middle now. Hope he gets banned for slow over rate.
 
There is no Stokes in this team to blast away like he did yesterday after Eng slowed down at the same stage. Need pants to relax and play along Kohli for a bit

Well Ganguly is saying what most indian fans would like to hear right now. :inti
 
Shakib is the only good player in this team.

Rest r bunch of losers.

No wonder he doesn't wanna play in this team anymore.

Its a very crucial stage of an important match so I wont blame him to have perfect strategies in place.

He's 21. It's just his 2nd WC game. Relax. He has good models in this team to learn the art of building an innings after the WC

Mist players huff and puff after playing long innings and taking frequesnt doubles, have seen dekock badly tired around 90s and 100 ,you mean he isnt fit?
Unlesd rohit says it himself,wont look much into it.its only a concern if this happens in fisrt few overs
 
Its amazing how pant is written off after a few games whereas someone like Rohit was given six years and 80 odd matches to come good. Some posters are either just not good at identifying talent or lack patience or both.
 
Give us Pant and take Asif Ali lol :))

Atleast Asif can hit a first ball six :ashwin

Rohit’s career changed when he was made an opener.

Pant is a talented guy, no doubt about it. It would depend upon his temperament and hardwork how much he will achieve.
 
Nothing better can be expected from the bowlers when they r coached by Walsh.

He has to be the worst coach in international cricket right now.

Our bowling went downhill the moment streak left us and Walsh took his place.
