What's new

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

These two are Afghanistan future. Best technical batsmen they have. I think Rahmat should open, Shahidi at 3. Zazai at 7.
 
[MENTION=131701]Mamoon[/MENTION] having a meltdown on this thread.

Relax, India should be able to win. Afghans might crumble due to pressure.

There is no pressure on Afghanistan. If they lose it will be due to lack of skill.
 
Bro...he's good in tests....in indian conditions....he's useless in odi's....(good in t20's though)....he's useless as a fielder and whlst batting has only one shot...the inside out hike which is a massive tukka shot....
we've been there and amongst other things its cost us the champions tournament 2017..

He also cost India the World T20 2016 with that no ball :facepalm:
 
i know its a long long way off
but if Afghan do manage to win (iA)
will it be the biggest upset in world cups history?

Lol look at how he performed in 2013 CT and 2015 WC outside of Asia . He was excellent.
 
If they lose here I doubt they can recover from this humiliation. This might be the beginning of the end for this generation.
 
:four he is batting against the best spinners in the world

Afghan batsmen >>>> Aussies >>> Proteas etc
 
Accuracy of Indian bowlers is exemplary in last 2 years across the formats. Hats off to Bharat Arun who did such a good job

Kenya won against windies in 1996, bd against Pak in 1999, bd against ind 2007 , ire against Pak
 
The closer they get, the more they will get excited due to the prospect of getting their first win over the WC favourites.

From an indian perspetive...i'd rather they had this nightmare match against afg.....this should fire them up much and proper against the others....

Yes. I actually fear for the afghan residents living in Delhi. Hopefully people won't beat them if we lose to them. I can already hear the chants of 'go back to afghanistan'. I hope Afghanistan don't win. :inti
 
Losing to Afghanistan will have an impact. You can't brush off such a loss.

yeah..but my point is yu learn max from loss....i dont think india read the pitch well whilst batting.....this might be a good wake call....kick up the pichwaada...that they need - probably...:)
 
Afg is a really exciting team to watch. I think they've proved enough times that they're no pushovers. One or 2 good players in their lineup and they will become a really decent team. Heck, I can see them developing a rivalry of sorts with Pakistan

Tbh, India will be back bashing their bunnies Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. But an unlikely loss here would definitely affect the players.
 
These 2 looking comfortable. If India lose today there needs to be serious questions asked. This pitch is tailor made for India.
 
Kuldeep needs to vary his pace. Needs to bowl a quicker one every now and then.

Our fans were making fun of Pakistan team when they lost to Afghanistan in the practice match. Now if we lose this one and Pak beat Afghanistan lots of fans will not come here for few months. :inti

82.6% for Afghanistan on the Win Predictor!

Don't know what you use, but I have the winviz app and the readings are totally different to what you're seeing:

Afg: 53%
Tie: 3%
India: 44%

you can lose to uganda or zambia
but after our recent perfomances vs you we have no right to troll you
 
These two are playing kuldeep good. They don't wanna throw a wicket otherwise the Indian spinners will run through the Afghan batting.
 
Sanjay doesn't know what he is talking about, Afghans have the ability to take 30 of 2 overs or 50 of 5 overs. Been there, done that :odoyo

Need wickets
 
Vijay Shankar is like that one guy who at end moment is taken to the sunday morning match coz one guy bailed
 
Real lack of tactics from mgmt. English killed then with short stuff, we have barely bowled any with tennis ball bounce on offer
 
Afghanistan need to make sure required run rate doesn't reach 6...that was plumb

Your app sucks. I'm talking about the official win predictor.
