What's new

India (209/9) blew away Namibia (116) by a massive 93-run margin to continue their unbeaten run in the T20 World Cup 2026

That’s why Abhishek is needed against Pakistan, Samson is woefully out of form and it puts tremendous pressure on Ishan Kishan and SKY.

The only positive is against Pakistan we don’t need 250 to win, we will have a good chance of winning even if we score 170-180, there batting is hit or miss as well.
Both Ind and Pakistan will have their own struggles.
 
If Pandya stays 10 overs agianst Pakistan it will be fun. He doesn't committ. He just stands and swings.

If that happens match will be won. If he plays 10 overs, means he gonna make 70-80 on his own and India will score 220+ which is above Pakistan’s chasing ability.
 
After seeing Erasmus performance against Indian batters, Tariq is going to be huge headache for india. :kp

I think India have to play Kuldeep in place of Rinku vs Pakistan. Rinku is not bad but at no. 7. A specialist batter is just too much. Gives me Asif Ali vibes

Kuldeep is a must against Pakistan.

I would rather have Sanju Samson as a finisher where he can slog than Rinku.

Kuldeep can play in place of Arshdeep.
 
India has to move past Rinku who is not an out and out finisher. He needs atleast 3 overs to get set. That is not possible. Axar is also not a finisher. Once Dube and Pandya was gone this was on the cards.

I think India should fit in Jaiswal here , he is more than just a Test player.

If you purely look at batting skill perspective there are so many guys better than Rinku. Iyer, Jaiswal, Prabhsimran, Vaibhav.. many many. Rinku has developed this image that he is a finisher after that one over. Btu he is not
 
Everyone’s going to be noting how India did against the round arm / flat trajectory spin.

And not just India, I think it’s a thing in this WC.
 
Nope. The pitch is a great batting surface.

Other than Rinku, there is no weakness. You will see it soon in Colombo.
Vs Pakistan it's because of their own feeble mindset they can't compete, but this Indian side isnt anything special outside of the top order with Abhishek playing. Their bowling too someone pull bumrah's recent stats out too
 
Vs Pakistan

Abhishek
Kishan
SKY
Tilak
Hardik
Dube
Sanju (He is a better slogger than Rinku and overall a much better batsman).
Axar
Kuldeep
Varun
Bumrah


Arshdeep needs some rest.
 
Lol at these commets of gloom and doom

For a team that scored 200+.

Sometimes we can be way too demanding as fans.

Never happy
