India (160/6) clinch last-ball 4-wicket victory over Pakistan (159/8) in the final over at the MCG

[Da_Future_Knick]

Poor decision.

It was obvIndia would attack this over after drinks. Should’ve gave Shaheen an over and then give Nawaz the over with the big leg side boundary

 

[Kroll]

We needed Mohammad Wasim here

What is the point of Asif Ali at 8

Good point, trick missed here but it is so obvious now.

 

[Major]

We needed Mohammad Wasim here

What is the point of Asif Ali at 8

why cry about someone who is not in the team man

 

[Rana]

Afridi brouight back. Should have been Rauf to be honest.

No, right call

Bowl Afridi out now

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

159 is way too less to win.

Bro your always negative

 

[Shafi]

Unless miracle happens we will not win this match

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

Shaheen with limping runup ?

 

[Fazzy321]

What’s going on with Shaheen line

 

[castortroy]

What is afridi bowling?

Bend your back ***

 

[shariqnoor]

Exactly what I was afraid of. You feed spin to Pandya when he comes in and he'll destroy you later in the innings.

 

[Sherazkhalid]

Shame on Nawaz. India favorites now.

More than that shame on Baber. Always let the opposition come back in, don't know what he's thinking.

 

[Kianig89]

The 4th seamer might just haunt us

 

[volcyz]

Freebies now

 

[Major]

Poor decision.

It was obvIndia would attack this over after drinks. Should’ve gave Shaheen an over and then give Nawaz the over with the big leg side boundary

nope, you have to bowl ur spin quota one way or another. nothing poor here.

if you bowl shaheenm tahn what? you need to get the spinners in one way or another

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

India well ahead now

 

[Kroll]

These two are calm, no panicking

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Pakistan need to break this partnership. Cant let these 2 stay for another 2 overs. Get it down to karthik and then theyve only got ashwin. Wkts will slow the scoring

 

[Shafi]

why cry about someone who is not in the team man

Wasim can replace any of Parchi Haider or Asif.

 

[Sherazkhalid]

We are pacer short for sure, spinners will give 40 runs in remaining 2 overs.

 

[Zeshan547]

As I told in the start having Asif for wasim junior was shooting in the foot selection, this decision alone can cost us. Playing Asif is like playing with 10 players vs 11.

 

[hamzie]

shaheen doesnt look fit
need mohd amir back

 

[castortroy]

India will cruise this now

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

444 by Kohli

 

[Kroll]

Rank rotten ball, wat you doing Shaheen?

 

[Major]

good recovery from India, and they are looking good

 

[Inswing]

These 2 demolishing us I swear.

 

[ask_analyse_act]

Poor decision.

It was obvIndia would attack this over after drinks. Should’ve gave Shaheen an over and then give Nawaz the over with the big leg side boundary

Thats the difference between thinking captain and a normal paper plan captain

 

[imshally81]

Now game is slipping here

 

[MP2011]

Good shot from Kohli. Keep them coming

 

[10sion]

oh come on pakistan.....

 

[castortroy]

Should not have played Afridi

 

[Major]

shaheen doesnt look fit
need mohd amir back

no thnak you, would take an unfit bowler over someone who sold Pakistan for a few bucks

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

I'm afraid India are the favourites now

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Shaheen need to get a wkt

 

[Kianig89]

78 from 44 is doable

 

[SpiritOf1903]

Very risky to keep him on

 

[Sherazkhalid]

This is what we needed to do and we kept on giving them catching practice.

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

India cruising here, it's over for Pakistan. They just can't handle the pressure

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

India should win this easily now

 

[Falcon'sParwaz]

Nawaz's remaining over should be bowled by Iftikhar. He's a decent bowler. In Tri-series, he was difficult to hit.

 

[t_kaay]

One good over for either team is going to decide this

 

[castortroy]

Man kholi always kills us

 

[Inswing]

Game is slipping I hope we had wasim

 

[imshally81]

Good Yorker

 

[10sion]

excellent comeback by India

 

[Kroll]

Ind looking fav, that Nawaz over killed us.

 

[Major]

he survived the pace over, we will ahve to bring the spinners in no matter what.

 

[castortroy]

One good over for either team is going to decide this

India have already had that over.

Pak still have to bowl spin which is going to cost them

 

[Usman Chadda]

Nawaz should use his brain a bit and stop bowling in the arc. Rubbish bowling

 

[ishtiaq_ctg]

Is Afridi carrying any discomfort?? He didn't looked his usual in this over.

 

[Sherazkhalid]

ok, Baber knows he has bottled it up again.

 

[msb314]

Good yorker

 

[10sion]

Still require 11 an over.

 

[Kianig89]

RrR 11.2 Ind' s RR last 5 over 9.2
Game on

 

[castortroy]

Congrats India

 

[Markhor]

IND fighting back.

Shaheen finally nails that yorker he's been searching for to end the over.

 

[10sion]

2 overs of spin remaining. Whats Pakistan going to do.

And kohli gets a 4

 

[hamzie]

this is all over

 

[Kroll]

Good try by Pak, but just not enough runs on the board.

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

That's it. Game set match

 

[Ahmed216]

Needed extra pacer look at Shaheen fitness

 

[Sherazkhalid]

It's easy to take 10 runs in an over in this ground. Not everyone is giving catch practice.

 

[Geil]

Good shot from Kohli. Keep them coming

One thing to remember is the opposition is Pakistan

No matter what situation you are in, Pak always gives you a chance to comeback

need to be positive ad show the fightback

 

[Da_Future_Knick]

nope, you have to bowl ur spin quota one way or another. nothing poor here.

if you bowl shaheenm tahn what? you need to get the spinners in one way or another

The point I’m making is it was obvious India would attack, bring your pace bowler on and see if you can get a wicket.

 

[Rana]

Why is Clarke nervous? Who is he supporting?

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

Ordinary fielding by Haider

 

[Amjid Javed]

India favs to win from here.

 

[Ashmal]

Need a wicket....

 

[ask_analyse_act]

Again giving a spinner with the short boundary on leg side..

 

[10sion]

Kohlis strike rate finally over 100

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Indian middle order > Pakistan middle order

 

[Sherazkhalid]

Can Naseem handle the pressure? I only have hopes with Rauf and he is giving some runs, maybe time for him to get a go.

 

[Ahmed216]

Good try by Pak, but just not enough runs on the board.

Poor selection might cost us this game

 

[Kianig89]

First ball.to boundary just gives batsman the cushion to plan through the over

 

[Kroll]

Sixer incoming

 

[Fazzy321]

Once again a lot of Indian supporters in the crowd.

 

[MP2011]

One thing to remember is the opposition is Pakistan

No matter what situation you are in, Pak always gives you a chance to comeback

need to be positive ad show the fightback

Lol, we aren't any better when it comes to tightening the screws.

 

[10sion]

Again giving a spinner with the short boundary on leg side..

Doesnt Pakistan team have analyst who feeds these players data?

Dravid keeps talking about data. Heck Scotland is also using data.

 

[Sherazkhalid]

Baber had no options, he is stuck with two spinners and spinners are the different in the end.

 

[Rana]

That's it. Game set match

Believe

We are still in this
