India [224/8] defeat Afghanistan [213] by 11 runs in the 28th match of World Cup 2019

Right-handers need to take care with the gap between bat and pad, especially when it's pitched outside their off-stump.

That Babar was still immense though. Ball of the WC for me.
 
Bring in long on for Chahal and long off for Kuldeep and invite them to go over the top
 
It is normal. Indians couldn't cope up with the class of Afghan spinners though!

indians being good against quality spin is the biggest myth and hype....when its quaality spin...or pitch takes turn we are useless....cue moeen ali, rahshid, rahid khan, mujeeb....and in the past murali, mendis an co....in fact i thknk we play pace better nowadays...
 
If you thought yesterday was an upset.... then what will this be if Afg win????? King of all upsets
 
I’m surprised how Pakistani batsmen can’t play spin properly.

We used to have YK and Misbah who could atleast take on the spinners.

True we struggle more against spin now a days than pace on most occasions. Though even India played spin pretty ordinarily today, yes Afghans bowled well but still you expect better.
 
Which channel? Most of the ads even on ‘Star Sports 1 HD’ are in Hindi.

I'm watching an online stream which is streaming from Hotstar I think and majority of ads are in English

I think the one Bumrah bowled to Fakhar was better. Pitched on leg and nearly clipped the top of off. Extremely unlucky not to take his wicket.
 
The main question is would Afghanistan want to upset and embarrass the country that is so graciously hosting their cricket.

Yes that was an exceptional delivery.

It truly was, so unfortunate not to yield a wicket.
 
The sweep shot is a good option against kuldeep based on the length of the delivery. Younis and Misbah would’ve played him well

Afghanistan is trying hard but India's got this, they have quality bowlers. I just had my amul milk :moyo
 
Afghans somehow play much better against Sub continental sides than they play against SENA teams. Which is a surprise considering their strength is spin bowling and Sub continental teams are supposed to play that better than SENA.
 
This is just dumb captaincy, what are you doing grandpa. This is where you should be earning your keep, why on earth do we have both long on and long off out get atleast 1 insidecthe circle, stop these easy singles.
 
At the start of the current over: Afghanistan's win% was 80% according to ESPNcricinfo's Forecaster

WOW - Not happening, India has class bowlers
 
I think Cha-ku are too nervous or what....bowling quick thru air, need to bowl more slow, get drift and dip....will get grip off wicket....this is where vk and dhoni need to step up and have a word.....

They mentally believe they are superior :akhtar
 
Have these 2 idiots lost their God damn minds, what on God's earth is this idiot doing with the ball.
 
Afghan bat sensibly they’ll win. Simple as that. 224 is not as daunting for them. 260 would’ve been too much for them against ind bowling
 
What a poor shot, a wicket gifted to a not so special delivery
 
Joe root is doing money transfer advertisement lol, the worst ambassador lol
 
I knew Afghanistan batsmen were going to get cocky and lose their composure when Pandya was brought in.
