India (131/3) secure a convincing 7 wicket victory over Pakistan (127/9) in the high voltage encounter of the Asia Cup 2025

[Asif321]

Anyone else worried we won’t get knocked over for less than 100 here?

Yeah I’m already feeling 15/3

 

[Da_Future_Knick]

Willow stream taking forever to start smh missed the toss

 

[Major]

Santner is a different bowler who pauses briefly to see what the batsmen do. Not many bowlers have the same skill doing that.

lol, bhai he didnt take wickets due to the pause but due to his spin.

lol

 

[RehanG]

Was their handshake at toss ?

Nope, pretty childish I think.

 

[Asad T]

based on the betting odds, india is favored to win 75%

honestly, i think it should be 90%

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Rauf would have been massacred by these indian batsmen. Spin is your best chance.

This is very likely. This current lineup smashed Wood and Archer. Don't think Rauf will be a threat unless there is significant swing/seam available.

PAK's spin should be more threatening.

 

[Asif321]

Nope, pretty childish I think.

I guess it’s first time this has happened between two nations on cricket field

 

[Snowflake]

What the hell did Salman just do? Bowl first is the go-to action in UAE unless a minnow is playing against you.

We made only 160 against Oman, we won’t be able to give India much of a total here as the pitch is difficult to bat on in the first innings.

Sahi decision hai

 

[charlie007]

The openers’ hearts must be beating so fast! We often don’t really think too deep about the players being under pressure, but use it just as a word. Nerves will settle down after an over or two.

 

[Obaidd]

Nope, pretty childish I think.

Astonishing if they are deliberately avoiding shaking hands.

SKY met naqvi, why can’t he shake hands with Agha who’s probably a much nicer guy?

 

[jnaveen1980]

lol, bhai he didnt take wickets due to the pause but due to his spin.

lol

India beat NZ in CT final and WC semi final with santner. He is not the only bowler out there. Anyway Santner is not playing here. Nawaz is no Santner.

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Pak has 3 spinners hence opted to bat first. Isn't chasing better at this time of the year in dubai ?

 

[Snowflake]

Nope, pretty childish I think.

So childish. Na khelo bhai itna massla hai toh. Peisay bhi chahiyein but nakhra bhi kerna hai

 

[Asif321]

Not house full . May be that helps Pakistan

 

[Devadwal]

@Nikhil_cric how's the Josh ?

Your opinion about toss?

 

[Snowflake]

Astonishing if they are deliberately avoiding shaking hands.

SKY met naqvi, why can’t he shake hands with Agha who’s probably a much nicer guy?

Don’t have the balls to refuse a handshake with someone senior.

 

[Major]

India beat NZ in CT final and WC semi final with santner. He is not the only bowler out there. Anyway Santner is not playing here. Nawaz is no Santner.

India beat India in World T20. Now give it a rest. India loses matches dont take it to your ego, just watch todays match.

 

[Major]

If we lose, i am claiming this as our B side.

Infact, if we win, i will still call this our b team

 

[jnaveen1980]

Manjrekar is saying there are no stalwarts. No Kohli, No Rohit, No Jadeja, No Babar, No Rizwan. Only difference is Babar and Rizwan got kicked out lol

 

[Major]

Hate when the Pakistan side does these stupid things in national anthem. First the hand on heart crap and now this holding shoulder. What tools.

Thats not how we stand for the national anthem in Pakistan

 

[Major]

Manjrekar is saying there are no stalwarts. No Kohli, No Rohit, No Jadeja, No Babar, No Rizwan. Only difference is Babar and Rizwan got kicked out lol

so, Manjrekars point still stands Babar and Rizwan is not there. WHat stupidity are you trying to convey?

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Not house full . May be that helps Pakistan

Boycott by few or it would fill up as the game goes. I am not able to watch the watch live as broadcast is by Sony which i didn't subscribe for here

 

[Major]

I like how our national anthem is simple and short.

Last night i was watching the Bangladesh and Sri Lanka match. Sri Lanka sang that national team for a good 4 mins, and than Bangladesh decided to match them

 

[jnaveen1980]

so, Manjrekars point still stands Babar and Rizwan is not there. WHat stupidity are you trying to convey?

Both got kicked out. Is there any untruth in it?

 

[globetrotter]

India holds 10-3 winning record against Pakistan. Today it become 11

 

[Major]

Loving the Indian crowd cheering, not a single glimpse of Pehalgam sorrows....


Come on show us our Rana

 

[JaDed]

Will have to ignore a lot of posts today

 

[Major]

Both got kicked out. Is there any untruth in it?

so both are not in the team as Manjrekar point, what point r u making ?

 

[Sachin fan]

Astonishing if they are deliberately avoiding shaking hands.

SKY met naqvi, why can’t he shake hands with Agha who’s probably a much nicer guy?

More cameras and right in front of the crowd. It's all to play for the gallery, behind closed doors they would have shaken hands. If they really wanted to protest they would simply have not played. It's all natak

 

[JaDed]

so both are not in the team as Manjrekar point, what point r u making ?

That there is a difference between
stalwarts ..

 

[Major]

Hardik is a Chapri with that hair style

 

[jnaveen1980]

so both are not in the team as Manjrekar point, what point r u making ?

I am drawing the difference lol You cannot compare retirees with ousted.

 

[Asif321]

Hopefully Saim don’t lose his mind and try something stupid

 

[Nikhil_cric]

@Nikhil_cric how's the Josh ?

Your opinion about toss?

Very subdued. I have never been less hyped for IND-PAK. In fact, this whole tournament feels useless.


Brave decision by Salman. Probably expecting the pitch to stay dry, helping their 4 spinners.

 

[Major]

I am drawing the difference lol You cannot compare retirees with ousted.

he said they are not featuring.

I get it, Indians not strong in English

 

[Major]

Hardik Pandya to bowl from Chapri End

 

[JaDed]

Hardik is a Chapri with that hair style

Lol are you watching too many Indian reels?

 

[prash88]

2-3 walking wickets in Pakistan top order. India should get them in PP.

 

[JaDed]

I feel the Brits will come once PCT starts playing well credit to @Rana and @Major to be there from first itself.

 

[Asad T]

PP just need to go hard in the PP no need to be scared

 

[jnaveen1980]

I have seen only one or two games of these pakistan new blood. First time i will get a full view.

 

[Major]

Wur gaye

 

[Devadwal]

Nikal Tulla saim

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Gone. Pandya strikes

 

[prash88]

2-3 walking wickets in Pakistan top order. India should get them in PP.

Gone. Yes

 

[RexRex]

woohoo

 

[Asad T]

uff what a soft dismissal

 

[Hellion]

Saim gone. That's what happens when you call Pandu a chhapri.

 

[globetrotter]

Pak 0-1

 

[castortroy]

Like I said, ao for 80-90

Mental midgets

 

[Mesozoic]

First boycott done

9 more to go .

 

[Asif321]

Knew it . Two ducks for Saim . Horrific

 

[Nasty Naz]

Saim Ayub continues to be brainless moron. A king of golden ducks.

 

[RehanG]

2 times now 1st ball duck.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

@Rajdeep come and post in the match thread. We are in a good position.

 

[U$ofA]

Hopefully Saim don’t lose his mind and try something stupid

Well... too late for that!

 

[RexRex]

Destroy them

 

[Major]

He was distracted by that hair style. i dont blame Saim

 

[Asif321]

We are doomed . Time to close the tv

 

[Devadwal]

@Rana one tullebaaz gone for Golden duck .

 

[jnaveen1980]

Saim is so short. That was a hardly bouncing ball. It almost reached his chest when he pressed forward.

 

[followed]

Lol hahahha kick saim out. What a loser this saim. He is not a batsman he is more of a bowler.

 

[OldWarHorse]

Saim Ayum looked as nervous as a bride. Stage too big for him

 

[Major]

Chal Haris, tayray saray gunnah maaf ajj, perform kar bhai

 

[Nasty Naz]

Batting group continues to be so poor and shambolic. Incoming 25/4 type power play.

India will probably bundle them out for 100 or something.

 

[Zeshan547]

Like always we just gift our wickets, and this one is not even proper pressure Game, Atleast make India earn your wicket. Saim also seem to have no clutch genes.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Happy days for Pakistan as Saim proves he's nowhere near anything at the moment.

 

[cricketmania22]

Delusional fans are going to get a real life lesson about this team.

 

[castortroy]

Pak fans always deluded themselves before playing India.

7 wicket loss incoming

 

[Asif321]

Why Saim so pathetic

 

[Major]

Can the batter ask the bowler to wear a cap plz. That chapri hair is too distracting

 

[RexRex]

First match vs Pak without Kohli or Rohit in 18 yrs ... wow

 

[boomboomcheema]

Saim loser.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Haris lol swinging first ball calm down son

 

[jnaveen1980]

Swinging for Hardik. interesting.

 

[G0rmintAunty]

Its ok, he still needs more time.

 

[U$ofA]

We are doomed . Time to close the tv

After just 4 balls?

 

[globetrotter]

After 6 overs Pak 30/4

 

[Asad T]

I like the attiude from Haris. Don't back down boy

 

[jnaveen1980]

I gotta say this feed is so slow. SOmeone typed gone. It took 2 balls.
