India (181/8) defeat Afghanistan (134/10) comfortably by 47 runs to claim their first victory of the Super 8 stage

[JaDed]

Axar has improved so much hopefully he can maintain this

 

[jnaveen1980]

Yet another one sided Super 8 match. Third in a row.

Shabaash to the ICC for ensuring that the entire tournament is a classically boring run of the mill extravaganza.

USA vs SA was not one-sided. They were in the game till Hardeep singh was there.

 

[Human786]

47/3 in 8

 

[Croma]

Bring on Kuldeep... why is his entry being delayed?

 

[Mainul]

Can Afghanistan chase 11 plus RR? Have they got that firepower in their belly

 

[RidiculousMan]

And to think Kuldeep hasn't even bowled yet.

I say bring him on and finish this game.

 

[JaDed]

Is kuldeep hated by team management?

 

[sweep_shot]

Afghanistan need 135 runs from 12 overs. 7 wickets in hand.

They need some big overs to bring that NRR down.

 

[RidiculousMan]

Can Afghanistan chase 11 plus RR? Have they got that firepower in their belly

No. Their batting comprising of Ibrahim and Gurbaz is gone. These are bits and pieces Cricketers.

 

[Mainul]

Kuldeep is on.
Either he will finish Afghanistan or he will help make the contest close.

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Xcellent fielding by Arshdeep - no doubting that ....but has he really cut it in international cricket ? I feel on no swing wickets he's cannon fodder ...we need to get better younger quicks

 

[Devadwal]

Kuldeep kya yar no ball

 

[cricketmania22]

They wanted to bring Kuldeep with the older ball.

 

[Croma]

Very rusty start from Kuldeep

 

[JaDed]

Kuldeep needs time

 

[RidiculousMan]

Easy to predict Super 8 winners isn't it? Barring West Indies maybe the picture is very clear.

 

[Devadwal]

All the pressure is released now

 

[jnaveen1980]

They should have played Kuldeep in all the matchecs. They let him idle for so many days while "all rounder" jaddu getting all the game making 0 runs, taking 0 wickets, 0 catches in the firs tround

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

I feel big shot/ wicket coming up

 

[Mainul]

We may see in semi-finals:

Australia vs South Africa
England vs India

 

[Human786]

57/3 in 9

 

[Mainul]

Afghanistan cant still take 14/15 even after the free hit boundary

 

[Croma]

Afghanistan need 125 runs in 66 balls.

IMpossible.

 

[jnaveen1980]

WHen it comes to make the ball rough by throwing the ball into the ground Amir was the most obvious. He literally pounded the ball into the ground after taking catch or takign wicket.

 

[RidiculousMan]

Simon Doull advocating for roughing the ball up. As long as you don't use sandpaper

And whoever plays South Africa is guaranteed a spot in the finals.

 

[Mainul]

The match is well under control of India

 

[Croma]

Jadeja appears and is lashed for a 6

 

[Mainul]

I think Rashid is going to play a tornado here

 

[RidiculousMan]

Omarzai vs impressive vs India in WC23 as well. He has potential to be a genuine all rounder. He should be invested in.

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Tommorow Bangla vs Aus will be interesting, as pitch will take spin...

 

[Human786]

66/3 in 10 - junk Jadeja

 

[shokz1408]

Dead crowd, looks like warm up match is going on

 

[Devadwal]

Afghanistan back in the game . match is even now

 

[sweep_shot]

Afghanistan need 116 runs from 10 overs.

 

[sweep_shot]

Nope WI

Windies lost against England already.

If they lose against South Africa, they should be eliminated.

 

[The Bald Eagle]

Windies lost against England already.

If they lose against South Africa, they should be eliminated.

They would bounce back i believe

 

[sweep_shot]

Afghanistan back in the game . match is even now

116 runs are needed from 60 balls. It is tilted toward India as of now.

RRR is 11.60. Bumrah has 2 overs left.

 

[Devadwal]

Kuldeep is now bowling well

 

[Mainul]

Afghanistan isn't fit for super 8

 

[sweep_shot]

Afghans lose their 4th wicket.

67/4.

 

[Croma]

4 down... Kuldeep opens his account

 

[Mainul]

Rashid should come now. I m a tan of his hitting

 

[sweep_shot]

Afghanistan isn't fit for super 8

They qualified fair and square. No rain factor like USA had.

 

[JattMaula]

All the pressure is released now

Naw. He is allowed a mistake. Literally his first ball in tournament.


And he deceives the batter in air now. Gulbadin gone.

 

[jnaveen1980]

India plays the next match on the same ground

 

[Devadwal]

Windies lost against England already.

If they lose against South Africa, they should be eliminated.

I don't see South Africa winning both match against westindies and England .

Whoever win rhe match between South Africa and Westindies will qualify for semi along with England

 

[JaDed]

They qualified fair and square. No rain factor like USA had.

Rofl, US beat Canada PCT.. they competed against India and SA.

 

[jnaveen1980]

You can't bowl wrong un from leg stump

 

[Croma]

So sad to see Jazzball sitting in the dugout

 

[sweep_shot]

Rofl, US beat Canada PCT.. they competed against India and SA.

If USA vs Ireland game didn't get rained out, USA probably would've been out and Pakistan would've qualified.

Ireland were favorites against USA.

 

[Devadwal]

Afghanistan isn't fit for super 8

Wait for Afghanistan vs Bangladesh match .you will get your answer.

 

[Human786]

71/5

 

[jnaveen1980]

Rofl, US beat Canada PCT.. they competed against India and SA.

USA is likely to beat BD one more time if they meet. THey have some beastly six hitters in their ranks.

 

[sweep_shot]

Another wicket.

Afghans are collapsing.

71/5.

 

[Croma]

WIll AFG reach 100?

71-5

 

[Energy]

USA vs SA was not one-sided. They were in the game till Hardeep singh was there.

Not really. They were always on the backfoot.

But overall having majority matches off full members vs associates is getting boring. Yes you'll get a couple of upsets but that's about it. And doesn't even make for good neutral viewing.

The ICC is diluting the quality.

 

[Devadwal]

Ireland were favorites against USA.

Ireland is worst team in this tournament alongside PNG and Uganda .

USA was favourite against Ireland

barring washroom breaks , there can none be faster that H786

No man. He missed a rank full toss and got out. That should have been a six. USA was well in the game.

How is it ICC's fault if teams like some of the main teams are declining? Sri Lanka, for example.

If associates beat the main teams fair and square, not much ICC can do.

 

[sweep_shot]

Ireland is worst team in this tournament alongside PNG and Uganda .

USA was favourite against Ireland

Definitely not the worst team. Ireland almost beat Pakistan and should've beaten USA too.

Canada beating Ireland was an upset.

For the record, Ireland is a Test nation.

USA beat Pakistan and gave taught time to India even at once they were favourite.

While Ireland were destroy by india ..

@James can tell you more about ireland . This tournament ireland is one the worst team that for sure

Anyone who watches cricket regularly should tell you USA is not better than Ireland. Just because USA is having a minor peak doesn't mean they are better than Ireland.

USA is like 2003 Kenya. I expect them to lose momentum.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Definitely not the worst team. Ireland almost beat Pakistan and should've beaten USA too.

Canada beating Ireland was an upset.

For the record, Ireland is a Test nation.

If tha tis the case Bangaldesh beating Srilanka is also an upset given that SL won the T20 series in Bangladesh before world cup.

They are not better but this tournament Ireland is one of the worst team .

Current form is matter not the past history.

Btw how can you forget recently USA beat Bangladesh too in a series .

 

[RahulBose]

If USA vs Ireland game didn't get rained out, USA probably would've been out and Pakistan would've qualified.

Ireland were favorites against USA.

USA almost chased against SA, defeated Pakistan and Canada and gave a hard time to India, but sure, they had no chance against the mighty Ireland.

 

[Croma]

Rohit is just giving some bolwing practise for Jaddu and Kuldeep.

Good idea

 

[jnaveen1980]

Bangladesh is facing Afghanistan at St. Vincent lol It will be fun.

 

[Human786]

91/5 in 14

 

[sweep_shot]

AFG - 90/5 (13.5 overs).

92 runs are needed from 37 balls.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Do they realize INdia has 2 Bumrah overs up their sleeve?

 

[Croma]

Wasim is brilliant. He says AFG need atleast one boundary every over to have a chance.

Afghanistan need 91 runs in 36 balls.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Come on guys get closer.. Afghanistan is capable of beating Australia at St.Vincent given that pitch will be turning.

 

[sweep_shot]

If tha tis the case Bangaldesh beating Srilanka is also an upset given that SL won the T20 series in Bangladesh before world cup.

Bangladesh have beaten Sri Lanka many times over the past 5 years. They even knocked out Sri Lanka in the ODI World Cup (BD qualified for CT 2025 instead of SL).

How many times did Canada beat Ireland?

 

[Devadwal]

Do they realize INdia has 2 Bumrah overs up their sleeve?

They are not going to win now .

 

[Cover Drive Six]

Bangladesh is facing Afghanistan at St. Vincent lol It will be fun.

Afghans will tear apart the toy tigers.

 

[sweep_shot]

Afghanistan should try to fix NRR now. They probably can't win it now. RRR is almost 15.
