[Cricket Warrior]

Mr Dube Pakistan ko lay Dube gain!

 

[oatmeal]

Ali Khan bhai is helping Pakistan

 

[leonidas_alexandar]

I wonder if we all have been a bit too harsh on Pakistan - looking at how so many so called top teams are struggling here in New York - whether batting first or chasing.

India is in a difficult situation here.

 

[Sherazkhalid]

Most definitely. Pack your bags.

No the way I wanted, now our players have an excuse that USA beat the mighty India too. Best outcome for me would have been that we either loose on points or through rain, this way we cannot blame the others and Qudrat ka Nizam can go **** itself as well.

 

[Croma]

FInally DUbe manages to hoick one for a six

 

[pillionrider]

Damnnnn Dube.

Exactly, outfield is terribly slow, bounce is uneven and there is movement early on. This isnt a good T20 pitch. The curator should be fired

 

[JaDed]

Dube can a hit a six in intl?

 

[Croma]

That six might have eased some nerves

 

[mominsaigol]

It's sad that if SkY takes India home, no will acknowledge the innings in the overrated thread cause the team is USA even if the pitch was beyond difficult and USA schooled Pakistan

 

[oatmeal]

Ugly hoick but at least he connected

 

[JaDed]

Very Pakistanieque chase this

 

[JaDed]

Amul Brothers are beating IPL shupastars today

 

[mominsaigol]

Very Pakistanieque chase this

Equation same as well 36 of 31 lol

 

[Croma]

SHould go berserk this over.

 

[jnaveen1980]

That six might have eased some nerves

Never of who? Lol

 

[JaDed]

Jessy is back

 

[Croma]

5 penalty runs... what ...why?

 

[jnaveen1980]

Ugly hoick but at least he connected

To be fair what did our opening batsmen do here. They were also clueless. Only pant and Miller could play positively on this pitch. All the others tuktuked

 

[MP2011]

5 penalty runs

 

[cricketmania22]

India were following behind so BCCI ordered a 5 run penalty!

 

[JaDed]

Lol gifted 5 runs from ICC

 

[jnaveen1980]

That Johnson guy was very good canada

 

[followed]

Icc is helping Pakistan. Lol.hahah

 

[Blackbradman]

USA have been docked 5 penalty runs. They have gone past 60 seconds to start a new over 3 times in the innings. As per the new rules, that's a penalty

 

[Croma]

India were following behind so BCCI ordered a 5 run penalty!

hahhahha yeah!

 

[JaDed]

India were following behind so BCCI ordered a 5 run penalty!

lol Conspiracy yay

 

[Devadwal]

Why five penalty runs ?

 

[emranabbas]

5 penalty runs... what ...why?

5 penalty points are to get pakistan back in the tournament

 

[Nikhil_cric]

This is so unfair to the Americans - these penalty runs.

ICC doing this just to make sure PAK somehow sneaks through.

 

[cricketmania22]

lol Conspiracy yay

It’s a joke lol

 

[JaDed]

USA have been docked 5 penalty runs. They have gone past 60 seconds to start a new over 3 times in the innings. As per the new rules, that's a penalty

this..

 

[mominsaigol]

Why five penalty runs ?

They went past 60 seconds to start a new over 3x so that's the new rule for ICC

 

[rhony]

Why five penalty runs ?

Took more than a minute between overs for three times

 

[JaDed]

It’s a joke lol

Irrespective I think they should had been warned before deducting could be the difference

 

[jnaveen1980]

BCCi should reject 5 runs . Please

 

[Devadwal]

Pathetic rules .why they deducted 5 runs

 

[JaDed]

BCCi should reject 5 runs . Please

BCCI has sent Dube and SKY to play with no Jaiswal and Kuldeep, what else is expected from them to make us lose?

 

[Devadwal]

Feeling really sad for USA

 

[Croma]

India are purposefully taking their time with this chase. Very suspicious

 

[Nikhil_cric]

BCCi should reject 5 runs . Please

Rohit should tell the umpire that they will chase the extra 5 runs. No need for this deduction.

 

[JaDed]

The 5 runs killed the momentum coz its below run a ball now.. Saurabh Special needed

 

[t_kaay]

Irrespective I think they should had been warned before deducting could be the difference

I was wondering this......do they get a warning after the 2nd time? Unfair a little if they not aware.

 

[JaDed]

I was wondering this......do they get a warning after the 2nd time? Unfair a little if they not aware.

Yeah esp if its a new rule I feel teams need to get used to it and on these damn pitches 5 might as well be 20..

 

[Asif321]

Pakistan stay alive and need to pray for weather

 

[cricketmania22]

Irrespective I think they should had been warned before deducting could be the difference

I think two times are two warnings.

 

[JaDed]

I think two times are two warnings.

Wonder if they were warned, then its on them

 

[Croma]

That SKY 6 has finished the game

 

[kingusama92]

Game over.

Surya gets the job done with this big over.

 

[Croma]

Now he is just playing with the bowling

44444444

 

[rhony]

Guess that's why they keep Yadav in the team. Gutsy

 

[jnaveen1980]

Cone on USA you can still do it

 

[JaDed]

Wow killed the game

 

[t_kaay]

I think two times are two warnings.

But are they told by the umpire those 2 times.....like "hey capt, that's your 2nd time, next time it's a penalty"????

 

[JaDed]

Yeah easy chase now.. bring in Saurabh now atleas

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Yaar Rohit, just go over to Aron and say you'll chase the extra 5. For cricket in America, For Indo-US relations , for our brothers playing for America etc.

 

[NeVerMind]

India basically lost their version of Babar, Rizwan and Fakhar early on but the rest are doing it for the team...can't imagine our middle order ever doing this

 

[RidiculousMan]

Sky masterclass. Even though it's against minnow team. His team needed it

 

[rhony]

But are they told by the umpire those 2 times.....like "hey capt, that's your 2nd time, next time it's a penalty"????

If they did, the make shift captain wouldn't have that dumb face. He probably didn't know the rules

 

[t_kaay]

The 5 penalty runs difference would have made this an interesting finish. Need India to finish this in this over hopefully, for the sake of USA nrr.

 

[JaDed]

India basically lost their version of Babar, Rizwan and Fakhar early on but the rest are doing it for the team...can't imagine our middle order ever doing this

In all honesty I didn’t expect our middle
order to do this as well, probably coz US is experienced this happened.

 

[RidiculousMan]

India basically lost their version of Babar, Rizwan and Fakhar early on but the rest are doing it for the team...can't imagine our middle order ever doing this

It used to when he had Hafeez, Malik, Haris and Sarfraz in middle order.

I still think about Haris Sohail. What a player he was.

 

[globetrotter]

Surya kumar yadav shines….. India were in trouble, but clever batting by Sky

 

[oatmeal]

The NRR difference between USA and Pakistan would be negligible now. so all that has to happen is USA lose and Pakistan win and NRR should take care of itself

 

[gani999]

Josh Hazelwood got into trouble for saying Aussies might manipulate Scotland game to kick England out. His logic was to eliminate good teams before super 8s. India doing the same to Pakistan?

Except that Pakistan is not a good team.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

It used to when he had Hafeez, Malik, Haris and Sarfraz in middle order.

I still think about Haris Sohail. What a player he was.

You are confusing Haris the ODI batter with the T20 batter. Was pretty mediocre in T20I's.

 

[Croma]

SKy playin for his 50 now

 

[RidiculousMan]

Surya kumar yadav shines….. India were in trouble, but clever batting by Sky

Going deep is key on this wicket. Rizwan should learn from Sky and Miller

 

[RidiculousMan]

You are confusing Haris the ODI batter with the T20 batter. Was pretty mediocre in T20I's.

He will fit in this current XI of Pakistan like a glove

 

[mominsaigol]

You are confusing Haris the ODI batter with the T20 batter. Was pretty mediocre in T20I's.

He didn't transition his form into t20 like fakhar can't but that doesn't mean he wasn't suitable for t20.

Dude was a classy bat who could hit and clear, he'd be gun in MO

 

[rhony]

The 5 penalty runs difference would have made this an interesting finish. Need India to finish this in this over hopefully, for the sake of USA nrr.

They are winning with an over and half to.spare. 5 runs don't matter much.

 

[ahmed16]

I wonder whether the Indians here will be more happy that India won or more sad that Pakistan are still alive?

 

[jnaveen1980]

Golden chance missed

 

[BaaliSoda]

(Not a Hindi speaker here, so pardon me if I am wrong in saying this) "Baal Baal Bachche" once again for us in the end.

At the minimum we need to get rid of Dube if not Jaddu and the rest of the non-performers, going forward.

But Rahul Dravid won't do that.

 

[JaDed]

Selfish fifty but winning cause so its alri

 

[JaDed]

I wonder whether the Indians here will be more happy that India won or more sad that Pakistan are still alive?

Many love the way USA played.. but losing to them would had made many Indians not happy losing to a minnow.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

He had a strike rate of 112 in T20's. Not convinced he had the game. Also, always unfit

 

[oatmeal]

USA drop below pakistan in NRR

 

[Croma]

India win with 10 balls to spare..

Those 5 penalty runs just broke USA's fighting resolve. SIgh! Yeah India might have won even then, but the game would have been so much closer.

 

[rhony]

USA drop below pakistan in NRR

You can drop in NRR even if you win unless you maintain the winning margin
