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

[jnaveen1980]

Bangladesh have beaten Sri Lanka many times over the past 5 years.

How many times did Canada beat Ireland?

Not really lol You just lost a series at your home against them. 11-6 still the record including recent loss. Even in ICC rankings SL is above BD.

 

[sweep_shot]

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

It is also good for BD because BD bowlers generally do better on these pitches.

Not much different than Mirpur.

 

[sweep_shot]

AFG - 99/5 (14.3 overs).

How much will the Afghans get? I think around 150.

 

[Devadwal]

Why They take the review? Its pitch outside leg.

 

[jnaveen1980]

We will see lol

 

[SpiritOf1903]

They haven't rolled over to paymasters

 

[JaDed]

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.

How were they favourites? You are more delusional than Pak posters.

 

[JaDed]

They haven't rolled over to paymasters

Kohli and Sharma rolled over to them though , Kohli dropped a catch as well

 

[jnaveen1980]

How were the favourites? You are more delusional than Pak posters.

USA would have destroyed Ireland in USA. Ireland was worse than noob associates this time around. Playing brainlessly.

 

[sweep_shot]

How were they favourites? You are more delusional than Pak posters.

2 months ago, would you have said the same thing?

How is USA favorite against Ireland? Just because they had a fluke win against Pakistan?

Ireland was the strongest associate and is now a Test nation.

 

[dildilpak]

The Indian commentators ganging up and trolling wasim akram and he is just sitting there and taking it. Pathetic.

Fluke? They won in super over, if anything thats not a fluke.

US beat BD too before that in a series. In US , US was very good

 

[jnaveen1980]

Booms strikes

 

[Croma]

Bumrah gets his third

 

[jnaveen1980]

Akram started it actually lol But they are friends

They are having a tough time against Bumrah

BD beating SL is more fluke than this. SL has some great T20 specialist bowlers. Some big hitters.

 

[Energy]

Afg, Ban, USA and WI are competing for who finishes 3rd and 4th in their group. None of them will make it to the semis.

They beat NZ, SL, Pak - no big deal. Tournament upsets happen. But the fact that they're absolutely toothless in the main round is a cause of concern on this format.

Hands on heart. Everyone would rather be interested in watching Ind-NZ today or Pak-SA yesterday.

3-0-7-3

Amazing figures in a T20 defending 180

And 4 of them were an edge.

7 down.. Kuldeep gets one.. wind was in his favor

Kuldeep spends six runs to purchase Nabi.

 

[JaDed]

Afghans rolled over against WI too.

Not sure this Pakistan team. They open with two statpadders Rizwan and Babar. ENtire pak middle order is full of tailenders pretending to be batsmen. Would have been an eyesore. Bowling is the only decent thing. But that also lacks a proper spinner.

Nobody stopped them from qualifying for the super 8. They lost and underperformed and got eliminated. Simple as that

 

[Local.Dada]

Wasim Akram has spent more time with Indian commentators than the average Pakistani since post-retriement. I believe Bhabhi is Australian so probably overall spent more time with Indians. All in good humor I guess.

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Any one else thinks Arshdeep doesn't quite make the cut, defo on such wickets ? I mean if he was not an lh bowler which is his only +point , he's another 125 kmph Bhuvi Kumar clone ...if pich or conditions do not offer swing , bounce he's toast on Ice....

 

[JattMaula]

What a shot by Noor!

Pantesque!

You are probably right. But, NZ and SL had only themselves to blame. They played poorly.

Pakistan got robbed due to rain (USA got a free point against Ireland).

 

[jnaveen1980]

India just has to include Samson in place of Dube. DUbe doesn't seem to be bowling here even in this situation.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Afghanistan stupid batting. THey should focus on playing out 20 overs reduce the NRR difference. THey can beat Australia and BD .

 

[Devadwal]

India just has to include Samson in place of Dube. DUbe doesn't seem to be bowling here even in this situation.

Samson is also not a good player on slowish pitches

 

[Croma]

Very one sided demolition as expected

 

[Devadwal]

Afghanistan stupid batting. THey should focus on playing out 20 overs reduce the NRR difference. THey can beat Australia and BD .

If they can beat both than they will qualify .

 

[jnaveen1980]

Samson is also not a good player on slowish pitches

But he is a better pedigree batsman than this guy. Or Jaiswal as opener. But Kohli must bat at 5.

 

[JaDed]

Afghans are just openers or bust

 

[jnaveen1980]

If they can beat both than they will qualify .

If Australia beats India and BD then there will be a tie on points

 

[JaDed]

Arsh got 2 wickets lol, guy is having a good wc

 

[sweep_shot]

Safe to say Afghans are now unlikely to qualify. NRR is taking a big beating.

 

[Croma]

Arshdeep on a hattrick

 

[jnaveen1980]

Arsh got 2 wickets lol, guy is having a good wc

He had good 2022 as well. Was one of the highest wicket taker. He has knack of taking wickets.

 

[sweep_shot]

No hat-trick for Arshdeep.

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Just looked up the super 8's schedule....so India is playing all 3 matches in about 8 days in 3-4 different countries/ islands....
My mind goes to 2021 T20 WC we hen on this site - every worthy bhaijaan & their khalu in tow raised a hue & cry as their team & possibly a few other teams had to take the unbelievably arduous & bone crunching 45 min- 1 hr bus ride from Dubai to sharjah for their various games whereas india was in Dubai only
The ongoing narrative & r Rona was BCCI > I C C ....
Where's everyone now? The proverbial cat got ur tongue?
?

 

[Devadwal]

Yea Play jasiwal instead Samson

 

[Savak]

The fact that this Afghanistan team is either at Par or even better than Pakistan and has beaten Pakistan in a T-20 series and in a WC ODI match is terrifying at how low Pakistan has fallen.

 

[Local.Dada]

Afghanistan stupid batting. THey should focus on playing out 20 overs reduce the NRR difference. THey can beat Australia and BD .

I would say Afghanistan will own Bangladesh. However Bangladesh always goes all “sweep_shot” against us with a lot of juzbaa kind of like Afghanistan vs Pak. Wouldn’t take them lightly. Aus and Afghan should be able to trash them easily. Obviously strange things can happen.

India is playing 3 Matches in 5 days

 

[sweto]

Why I am feeling
A fix match
Afghan trying their best to improve Indian run rate while loosing.
Look at their faves while playing
Not all players but some of them are deffo black sheep's in afgani camp

lmao not only are they losing but they are trying to improve India’s NRR

 

[JattMaula]

Good night peeps.

Batting intent throughout the inning won this match for India. We we simply 30 over par on this wicket.

 

[JaDed]

Hope Bumrah gets. wicket deserves it

 

[Dr_Bassim]

You are probably right. But, NZ and SL had only themselves to blame. They played poorly.

I honestly would see Pak vs NZ rather than USA vs Afghanistan

But, Pakistan did not get robbed.

They lost 2 games they should have won comfortably.

If you lose to USA, you only rob yourself.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Very Rp singh Ajit Agarkar vibe,except the height

Him being 6'3" also helps. gets natural bounce. Has swing. He just has to master his slower balls. Also add few yards of pace. Otherwise he has decent variations.

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

India is playing 3 Matches in 5 days

Yes, but where r the dudes who had ants in their pants in 2021 WC, the serial whingers & life members of India/BCCI is responsible for all evil in cricket ? Taken a hike - fellas?

4-0-7-3

Not to miss out - toss was fixed, chip in ball , magnetic strip on pitch & drones controlling the wind, ocean , clouds etc.....it all happens when India is playing

 

[jnaveen1980]

Too many alarms in recent times. Lost to NZ C team , lost a game to Ireland, Lost to USA. But for run out of Kirton Canada would also have pushed Pakistan. But Pakistan doesn't seem to use this loss as an opportunity to make changes. Instead they use Rauf incident to divert the issue. Either way India is not going to win. Pakistan is not going to win the cup with Australia, England around.

 

[Croma]

Arshdeep wastes a mintue setting field only to be hit for a 6 next ball

 

[jnaveen1980]

4-0-7-3

one edged 4 in that.

Yes. It's a conspiracy. One of.my buddies said Rashid khan won the toss but acted as if he lost. My friend has new IPhone double AI pro max super duper 16 and he zoomed into.the coin from the stands.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Stop this guys lol We are not peaking or anything. We still have bigger elephants at the top.

 

[Croma]

Arshdeep doesnt want this game to end eh?

 

[Champ_Pal]

Noori can bat. What a shot.

 

[Devadwal]

Why Arshdeep is trying too much. Just bowl

 

[Croma]

and Arsh gets his third

 

[JaDed]

Arshdeep got 3 my god

 

[jnaveen1980]

134 all out in 20 overs.

 

[Cover Drive Six]

Some posters here are very disappointed with Afghanistan's performance. They really expected India to lose. Now, they are coming up with silly excuses. Frustration is quite visible. LOL.

 

[Devadwal]

Good win but we won't win against Australia/ england if Rohit- virat performed like this

 

[rhony]

Stop this guys lol We are not peaking or anything. We still have bigger elephants at the top.

Beat BD and get into the semis. After that, we know the story

 

[jnaveen1980]

GOod performance despite presence of Rohit and Kohli.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Bumrah is on his way to becoming ATG.

4-0-7-3 are unbelievable figures.

 

[sweep_shot]

Relatively big win for India.

Afghan's NRR is now poor. They may finish last, unless they beat BD.

 

[JaDed]

Some posters here are very disappointed with Afghanistan's performance. They really expected India to lose. Now, they are coming up with silly excuses. Frustration is quite visible. LOL.

Excuse? One guy said Afghans are purposely losing to increase our NRR, lol that’s beyond frustration

 

[jnaveen1980]

Beat BD and get into the semis. After that, we know the story

This is a comical format. 2 matches into the next round. Then boom you are gone

 

[jattafridi]

Can’t wait India Vs Australia june 24

Travis head Vs bumrah
