They did not reach the final by luck, it is the best and most complete team in the world for a reason

8 an over after 5 overs with your two best batsmen gone is impossible for everyone....
 
Should bowl one or two extra overs than usual from Amir to get one more wicket with the new ball.
 
India are struggling to score right now but need to keep taking wickets!

The RRR is 7.2 which isn't impossible and they bat deep, only a fool would rule them out.

You're Pakistani so obviously you'll be cautious to call it early, but this is DONE.

Yuvi and Dhoni are well past their prime and Dhawan isn't one you trust to chase this.

Yeah. We will, but the thing is once any of these guys bat for 10 overs or so, they will start to catch up and transfer the pressure.

Fans might have given up or assumed victory, but trust me, the Indian batters haven't given up.

Sorry but the win predictor should be around 95%Pakistan right so based on percentages, it is looking very difficult for India.
 
India crawling back in the game. Need one more wicket here. Preferably of dhawan.

Definitely still in the game. We need another wicket to expose their middle and lower order which hasn't had much game time in this tournament.

The batsmen India have left aren't skilled enough to chase it. Give it up...

Like I said, I'm not a Kohli bhakt. Shikhar, Yuvi, Kedar and MS have enough skill to get it into Hardik Pandya territory. Maybe they won't, but all Indian batters are good enough to win a match alone on their day. At least a 25-30% chance this is the day for one of them.
 
Junaid is someone I still can't trust.

He's the weakest link in this line-up, this isn't Mumbai 2012-2013. If I was Yuvi I'd wait for to thrash this guy into the next galaxy.
 
Why give Dhawan width to free his arms ? Brainless bowling from Junaid.
 
Dhawan lifting India back. This partnership could be dangerous. Time to bring Hasan.
 
Indians missing half volley after half volley from Junaid. Amir has been good though. If India can not chase 339 here on this kinda wicket against depleted Pak attack then India never deserved to go past the semis.Padosis really keeping their nerves
 
If Kohli was still in with Dhawan, you could say this was still on. Without him, it's way too much for India's eh middle order.

When should we introduce him ?

Does he come on first change or bring spin on first to rough up the ball for reverse ?

Give Hafeez a few s at these two first and then get Hassan in around the 13th-14th over.

while this batting line-up is full of stars with rohit, kohli, yuvi, and dhoni, players like dhawan and kedar always quietly do their job without grabbing too much attention. hope dhawan delivers it for india and even if we lose couple more wickets, don't forget that india has a long batting line-up and in case of troble, even ashwin can be a solid batter. also india were 63-4 vs england earlier this year chasing 350 and yet they managed to win that with almost couple of overs to spare < true
 
I will gladly eat crow. Even if we somehow botch this, what an incredible effort.

So damned proud of the guys.
 
Need Hasan to open bowling with Amir.

Junaid bowls too much garbage, and only a matter of time before he is called...
 
Need to get Dhawan out.. he is looking DANGEROUS
 
That Silver Lifebuoy ad would get the advertising agency in so much trouble in a country with a decent advertising standards agency.

you are sort of right but remeber this isnt england this is pakistan different pitch different game and main man kohli already gone also only threat in jadhav that guy has great potential is a seriosu criketer
 
Should give Hasan an over in place of Junaid. Don't think bringing on a spinner at this stage will be wise. Need as many wickets as possible with the new ball
