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

[CrIc_Mystique]

India really missing Ashish Nehra today.

If an XI of all time useless fielders were to be drawn up....munaf would be the captain.....ashish nehra ji would be the vice cap.....

 

[topspin]

The last two days have been weird. I hope normal business resumes soon.

Well we need more weird days, if we want Pakistan to progress.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Bumrah is a great bowler but his action is un ugly monstrosity

 

[marlonbrowndo]

What is this batting )

 

[jeeteshssaxena]

Shankar will take a 5fer today.

Thoda zyada ho gaya.
A 3fer will be fine.

 

[Abdulm123]

Well we need more weird days, if we want Pakistan to progress.

The weird days are what`s making the world cup alive again

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Bumrah is a great bowler but his action is un ugly monstrosity

still is Effective....and i guess that matters....

 

[Mamoon]

These Afghan batsmen should buy lottery tickets today.

 

[Abdulm123]

wth?!!? even the worst team in my club bat better then these Afgahanistannies

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

These Afghan batsmen should buy lottery tickets today.

lol....true.....but early days yet....

 

[JaDed]

Wth man we are not able to dismiss these openers

 

[Gullycricket]

India need just one wicket.Floodgates will open after

 

[jiduguravindra]

Here 1 brings 3 I guess

 

[Hasan2K8]

There’s no technique in batting.

 

[Abdulm123]

How did Afghanistan even make it to the qualifiers? this batting is a whole cringe compilation.

 

[Mamoon]

Yes. Off you go. Hack.

 

[jagatk]

First one falls

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Shammmi

 

[JaDed]

Poor cricket by Shami , always go behind stumps

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

Lol hack gone.

 

[Ronaldo7]

Minnow level batting.

 

[Sunzi]

Hazrat more like Hazmat!

 

[Abdulm123]

shami deserved that wicket. That would have been sad if Shami put all that work only to not get the wickets.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Absolutely atrocious batting this guy is playing cricket on the streets of Karachi before Sehri

 

[castortroy]

Afghanistan will be 180 ao

 

[Mueez]

One down nine to go.

India don’t deserve to lose against Afghanistan.

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

gee whizzz....go indiaaa......

 

[TheNightWatchman]

surprised he lasted that long. That was really cringey batting

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

Rehmat shah? Is he batsman?

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Afg best batsman Rahmat Shah walks in

 

[Mamoon]

King of tuk tuk is here. This guy is straight from the 70s.

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

One down nine to go.

India don’t deserve to lose against Afghanistan.

Bhai....shukriya....and we are supporting you guys against the saffers tommorow,,,

 

[Ronaldo7]

King of tuk tuk is here. This guy is straight from the 70s.

He's needed now.

 

[RainStopsPlay]

Isn't the same guy who thrashed and owned the Shaheen Afridi Kid in the practice games?

 

[Hasan2K8]

Zazai got big shots down legside on flat wickets but jheez that was pure village cricketing shot.

 

[castortroy]

Afghanistan only chance was a 70-80 opening stand

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Shami bowling phaast

 

[Syed1]

Game over..

 

[Mr.Q]

Are we going to see semifinals without India and England?

 

[m.shah]

Isn't the same guy who thrashed and owned the Shaheen Afridi Kid in the practice games?

Yes and that is more worrying pak was destroyed by this hack

 

[ARK Rafay]

Zazai the worst opener hack?

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Shami >>> any indian pacer so far in this WC, seam position and length has been immaculate so far :clap:

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

shami and jazz boom in good rhythm

 

[Last Monetarist]

Hopeless, mindless batting.

 

[Mueez]

Bhai....shukriya....and we are supporting you guys against the saffers tommorow,,,

Thanks to you too bhai!

India is only one wicket away and the collapse will start.

 

[RainStopsPlay]

Yes and that is more worrying pak was destroyed by this hack

Im sure Pak would have worked him out by now. Let's see how he handles them in the next encounter.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

These afghanis are very thick from all the lamb they eat

 

[Syed1]

shami and jazz boom in good rhythm

What the heck is a jazz boom?

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Rahmat Shah is a proper test batsman along with Shahidi, they played well against Engalnd. Get them out, match is over

 

[Syed1]

These afghanis are very thick from all the lamb they eat

Ah yes casual racism

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Rahmat
Ashfatullah
Asgar

These 3 are proper batsmen for Afg, need to get these 3 before 20th over.

 

[Mamoon]

Bumrah needs to utilize the short ball. They cannot handle his pace.

 

[Mueez]

Yes and that is more worrying pak was destroyed by this hack

Amir didn’t play against Afghanistan.

He will get two-three early wickets against them.

Afghani batsmen would like to go after him but they don’t know what will happen to them...

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

i think afg can bat till rashid till 9....after that not much.....india gotta attack and maintain pressure....gee whiz...what a hole we've got ourselves into....who'd think 220 against afg...wt fridge....its loony season...

 

[Hasan2K8]

Why doesn’t Rahmat opens for Afghanistan? He looks their best technical batsman!

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Ah yes casual racism

How is it racism? I’m just talking about their diet. If a white guy says that a typical Pakistani diet is very unhealthy then I wouldn’t consider it racism. It’s also like saying English food tastes like crap. Lamb is eaten quite a lot in Afghanistan

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Bumrah needs to utilize the short ball. They cannot handle his pace.

i wish he'd friggin pitch it up...also go for crease line yorkers....mix it with the slower ones....

 

[m.shah]

Amir didn’t play against Afghanistan.

He will get two-three early wickets against them.

Afghani batsmen would like to go after him but they don’t know what will happen to them...

Well let's see current bench is A timid one and don't be surprised if Afg beat them

 

[Mueez]

Shami is really underrated.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Shami >>> any indian pacer so far in this WC, seam position and length has been immaculate so far :clap:

Team management was too dumb. They should have selected him right from the start.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

i wish he'd friggin pitch it up...also go for crease line yorkers....mix it with the slower ones....

Why would he even think of bowling variations right now?

 

[Mamoon]

i wish he'd friggin pitch it up...also go for crease line yorkers....mix it with the slower ones....

Yes it’s frustrating. He is bowling exactly where the they want him to bowl. He hasn’t been at his best in this tournament so far.

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

25/1 .... decent stuff from Afg , IND would have hoped for 1 more wicket.

Bumrah is done with his first spell.

 

[Mamoon]

Shami is really underrated.

I think he is the only age-fudger in this Indian team.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Compare Chahal, Bumrah etc to the afghanis in terms of build. That’s all I meant

 

[jeeteshssaxena]

Harbhajan used to take a bigger runup than bumrah.

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

over to cha-ku now...cmon lads....

 

[Mueez]

Well let's see current bench is A timid one and don't be surprised if Afg beat them

I would open the bowling with Amir and Hasnain.

First change Wahab/Hasan.

Spin - Shadab, Imad Wasim and Hafeez/Haris.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Shami is really underrated.

He is underrated by the team management as well. Someone called him a forced change today because Bhuvi got injured. Bhuvi will once again occupy his place after getting fit.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

over to cha-ku now...cmon lads....

I like that nickname

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Yes it’s frustrating. He is bowling exactly where the they want him to bowl. He hasn’t been at his best in this tournament so far.

true....maybe he'll own them in the latter overs...

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

I like that nickname

shukria bhai jaan...

 

[Mueez]

I think he is the only age-fudger in this Indian team.

As long he is performing India won’t mind him lying about his age.

 

[Mamoon]

Afghanistan needs to attack more. If they play for 50 overs they won’t win. They should try to chase it down in 40 overs.

 

[Mamoon]

As long he is performing India won’t mind him lying about his age.

Yes, quality bowler. Better than BK unless the ball is really swinging.

 

[Deewana]

Bumrah is such a gentle guy my favorite Indian cricketer after Dravid (sorry VK)
No way Afghanis are crossing 150 here
lmao there only chance to win is afghani babar azam aka Rahmats scores 100

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Pandya is here to ease the pressure.

 

[Syed1]

Harbhajan used to take a bigger runup than bumrah.

Don't need much of a run up when elbow is doing all the work

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Afghanistan needs to attack more. If they play for 50 overs they won’t win. They should try to chase it down in 40 overs.

Whaa...i'd think its the other way raound...if they are patient and last out the 50....they've chase down 220 odd....if they go gung ho and swing for the tall timber, india are in ...big time....

 

[Mueez]

He is underrated by the team management as well. Someone called him a forced change today because Bhuvi got injured. Bhuvi will once again occupy his place after getting fit.

Personally I’d choose Shami above Bhuvi because of his speed and accuracy.

Bhuvi can swing the ball better than Shami though.
