ICC World Cup 2023: India v Pakistan | Match 12 | Ahmedabad | 14 October | Pakistan innings

[DeadlyVenom]

Isn't there some hockey match on somewhere for Tendu to be watching instead.

 

[hamzie]

Lol Waqar getting a good roast in

 

[Ali Active]

The guy really has no charisma

gives me depression.

 

[mrtaim3]

Shardul Thakur has a funny run up, as if he is running in slow motion

He is a bit faster version of Saurav Ganguly

 

[Major]

Tendu getting called a baby on live telecision

Cha gya Waqar

 

[Mercurial]

Sachin Tendulkar's commentary skills are quite lacking, even compared to Wasim Akram

 

[Unbiased-Fan]

Great batting by Pakistan.. Even after losing wickets they are making sure that run rate is close to six

 

[Rana]

40 behind where we should be

 

[Firebat]

In the last 3 overs Pakistan has scored a boundary each yet the overs have gone for only six. 9 of teh 18 balls were dot balls. Pakistan need to rotate strike a bit better. If you get a boundary then make it a 8 or 9 run over.

100%. They try to hit boundaries to make up for their dot balls, stupid attitude.

 

[hamzie]

Might need to respect Jadeja here
He makes me nervous

 

[Azzurri]

What are they playing out jadeja

 

[hamzie]

Need to respect Jadeja and then double down on Thakur to make up for it

 

[emranabbas]

Barbie girl in punjabi version

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

This is really poor from Pakistan

How are we meant to score another 200 runs in the next 30 overs?

 

[Ali Active]

pakistan need to kick on a bit 300 wont be enough

 

[rhony]

Jaddu compensating for Lord Shardul here.

 

[hass]

Looking like Pak would be content with circa 300 at this stage. Can’t see how that would be enough.

 

[Devadwal]

Babar hasn't faced Bumrah. faced only few balls from Kuldeep. Rohit is exposing Pandya, Thakur to him nistead.

True . thakur is weak link and he is using thakur against Pakistan best batsman

 

[ex-q-zit]

Cha gya Waqar

So will it diminish his aura in any way? He is and will always be revered.

 

[Major]

here comes kuldeepppppp..

 

[batandballbattle]

chalo yaaaar jadeja tou marde

 

[emranabbas]

What are they playing out jadeja

Yes Best to play him and bumrah out

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Why are there so many ads?

 

[Usergame]

Good start by Pakistan. From a neutral, -, I think if they get 300 pakistan win

 

[Major]

So will it diminish his aura in any way? He is and will always be revered.

bhai dil per keo layra hai...

 

[Srinath_cricket]

I could be wrong but i dont remember Ashwin playing LOIs consistently after that last ball six by Afridi.

It's not the afridi knock that out him out. It's the CT finals that put him and Jadeja out of the team. Jadeja has managed to ride the wave and made a more consistent return to the team. But Ashwin couldn't.

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

Yes Best to play him and bumrah out

Terrible approach.

 

[boomboomcheema]

So many dots

 

[Devadwal]

Why are there so many ads?

Money

 

[Nikhil_cric]

The great man Sachin on commentary . As gracious as ever.
Boring but such a good human being as well

 

[emranabbas]

Terrible approach.

What do you want 103/4

 

[Rana]

Looks like this stadium isn’t sold out

 

[AAli98]

Shastri

" I have along 16 years old ( Sachin Tendulkar ) and the other ( Waqar Younis) I don't know"

 

[ex-q-zit]

Current partnership going at a rate of 3.87 which is good for India as its breaking the early momentum.

 

[Ali Active]

We dont want to hear about past games

 

[castortroy]

Indian spinners don't bowl bad bowls

Wait until Shadab bowls

 

[mominsaigol]

Every Rizwan post of yours I've read has a different opinion to the previous

Cause I change my opinion about him alot.

The first time I got excited and had him as the worlds best bat, then I started hating him for chocking, then I started analysing him a bit more.

He's basically the example of no need for plenty of options, if you've found the one thing your good at just keep doing that. No need to be jack of all trades Master of none.

 

[MMHS]

Sachin Tendulkar's commentary skills are quite lacking, even compared to Wasim Akram

Then you must not have heard Imran!!! This was my biggest surprise- thought with his charisma’ knowledge & eloquence in English language, he would be the next Benaud in commentary box …….. never been so disappointed with Imran for anything else.

 

[TheSultan]

Too many dots

 

[Unbiased-Fan]

Cha gya Waqar

Legends never troll legends. Nobodies like you and me misinterpret anything.

 

[Major]

there are still so many orange seats... where is the crowd?
meanwhile pakistan survives another kuldeep over.

 

[ex-q-zit]

Looks like this stadium isn’t sold out

Its an ODI. Poeple will come when India will bat.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Pakistan a bit behind the pace here.

 

[Shafi]

We will not even score 300 on 400 runs pitch!! Babar as usual playing for his personal milestone

 

[hamzie]

Rate slowing down

 

[Major]

Legends never troll legends. Nobodies like you and me misinterpret anything.

its soo easy to get under the skin of you indians....

baby tendu

 

[globetrotter]

Wicket is coming

 

[Ahmed216]

Help for the spinners. It will diminish at night

 

[Ali Active]

pak is just going block block

 

[castortroy]

Runs drying up here

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

Looks like they are aiming for 300. I don't think it's going to be enough.

 

[rhony]

Pakistan is missing the trick here. 5 rpo is not good enough. Last three to 4 overs have been crucial

 

[Devadwal]

Looks like this stadium isn’t sold out

It's is sold out. But some people's will come later or some are not becouse of any urgent works.but when Indian batting start 95% stadium is going to full with crowd

 

[Suleiman]

Pressure is there batting first as well - you see, PAK batsmen can’t leave it like play out 50 overs, then whatever comes we’ll try to defend.

Good to see you again sir.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

there are still so many orange seats... where is the crowd?
meanwhile pakistan survives another kuldeep over.

Chairs are saffron not orange

 

[sam_ahm]

Slow batting this. Not sure if the wicket is a bit more difficult in the day.

We saw that in the England-New Zealand game as well, England kept losing wickets and made 280 appear a good score, but batting second was significantly easier.

 

[Technics 1210]

Why are there so many ads?

Greatest rivalry in sport means over a Billion are watching, so a lot of eye balls for advertisers, and more pocket money for BCCI!

 

[ex-q-zit]

RRgoes below 5 for the 1st time since the 2nd over.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Money

It is becoming difficult to post here with ads. Pehle wali baat nahi rahi.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Pitch isn't that easy

 

[JattMaula]

Pakistan should show more intent.

 

[Rana]

What a shot for 4

 

[Markhor]

Innings has ground to a halt in last few overs.

 

[hamzie]

Need to target Kuldeep

 

[Major]

Either BCCI messed up with the tickets again, or the crowd isn't a sold out one. There are still soo many orange seats.
If this game was being played in England, by now the stadium would had been full.

And as i type, @Rana guess who scored a 4.

 

[Abhilash93]

Current partnership going at a rate of 3.87 which is good for India as its breaking the early momentum.

Yes surprising considering Hardik, Shardul etc were bowling for some time

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Bro I was talking about ads on PakPassion.

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

What do you want 103/4

What do you want? Final score of 270/280? Since we are playing out 20 out of 50 overs

Would be a absolutely nothing score on this wicket

 

[Devadwal]

Dropped??

 

[amirm]

300 on this ground is par

In the realm of cricket, arch-rivals India and Pakistan have a rich history. Pakistan holds the upper hand in the ODI format with 73 wins compared to India's 56 losses. However, when it comes to the Cricket World Cup, India boasts an impressive track record.

Since their first encounter in the World Cup back in 1992, India hasn't suffered a single defeat against Pakistan in the tournament. The anticipation and stakes have reached new heights as both teams have performed exceptionally well in their initial two matches of the current tournament.

Babar Azam's team made quick work of the Netherlands to kickstart their campaign and then showcased their batting prowess by achieving the highest successful chase in the history of Cricket World Cups.

Although the usually reliable Babar and Imam-ul-Haq have yet to shine in the tournament, Abdullah Shafique and Mohammad Rizwan have already displayed strong form by scoring centuries against Sri Lanka.

The rivals have only faced each other in one ODI match since the 2019 Cricket World Cup, during the Asia Cup last month, where centuries from Kohli and Rahul propelled India to an emphatic 228-run victory.


When: October 14, 2023, 2:00 PM IST

Where: Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad


Teams

India:

Shubman Gill dedicated half an hour to practice two days before the game. On the day preceding the match, the team's captain, Rohit Sharma, hinted at a 99% chance of Gill's participation when asked. Gill later joined the team for practice on the eve of the match, but a final decision on his involvement is expected to be made closer to the game. In the meantime, it's anticipated that Shardul Thakur will retain his spot in the lineup over Ravichandran Ashwin, as spin is expected to play a lesser role in the contest.

From a tactical and strategic perspective, the showdown between Kuldeep Yadav and Babar Azam was highly anticipated but unfortunately did not materialize during the Asia Cup, as the left-arm spinner delivered a remarkable delivery in Manchester. Kuldeep has dismissed the Pakistan skipper twice in just 18 balls bowled to him. How Pakistan's top batsman overcomes his somewhat lackluster performance in ODIs this year (with an average of 38.06 and a strike rate of 78.68) and navigates through the crucial middle overs against Kuldeep's spin could significantly impact Pakistan's batting performance. It's also worth keeping an eye on how India's middle-order, with a revamped approach compared to four years ago, matches up against Pakistan's struggling spin duo of Shadab Khan and Mohammad Nawaz.


Pakistan:

Babar's side is in excellent condition, and it's highly unlikely that they will make any changes to the lineup that secured victory over Sri Lanka.

From a tactical and strategic standpoint, Shaheen Afridi played a crucial role in Pakistan's most unforgettable World Cup clash against India. He delivered a remarkable opening spell in Dubai two years ago, dismissing Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul. Now, he confronts the task of duplicating that impact against a powerful batting order that is predominantly right-handed and susceptible to his left-arm angle.


Squads:

India Squad: Rohit Sharma(c), Ishan Kishan, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul(w), Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Shardul Thakur, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj, Shubman Gill, Ravichandran Ashwin, Mohammed Shami, Suryakumar Yadav

Pakistan Squad: Abdullah Shafique, Imam-ul-Haq, Babar Azam(c), Mohammad Rizwan(w), Saud Shakeel, Iftikhar Ahmed, Shadab Khan, Mohammad Nawaz, Hasan Ali, Shaheen Afridi, Haris Rauf, Agha Salman, Fakhar Zaman, Usama Mir, Mohammad Wasim Jr

[JattMaula]

Pakistan should show more intent.

And Rizwan does it.

 

[hamzie]

Nice aggressive stuff

 

[boomboomcheema]

When will Pakistan hit a Six..looks like Six is not allowed.

 

[viking2559]

Ball is keeping a bit low. It might get better under lights as it was evident in the previous match.
