India (244/4) comprehensively defeat Pakistan (241) by 6 wickets in their group-stage encounter of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025

[gazza619]

I don't trust our Indian batting line up with Kohli in the middle even though he plays well agianst them

Butter ghee & sugar in your mouth

 

[Ali T]

I think Salman Ali Agha should bat up the order May be at 4

Yes I agree. And as long as Rizwan is in the team, he should open the batting and play the same style as has has in T20 which for the most part has served him well

 

[m.shah]

What happened?

Just doing stupid voices.

 

[Wasim Ghulam]

Oh bhai we collapsed despite your unrequited love for Rizbar.

Fact is the moment you throw them out, things will gradually change.

With them, nothing will change.

i think that win against India in 2021 T20 wc did more damage to Pakistan Cricket

Rizwan
Babar
Shaheen

These were made undisputed kings of cricket and our cricket has gone down the bottom of the barrel

I wish we had not won that game

 

[PakFan2010]

I would love to know why Shaheen bats ahead of Naseem.

 

[kron]

Daryl mitchell
Latham
And will young will thrash kukdeepp

He sucks when he is hit

You just need to go after him
Mental midget

 

[Devadwal]

Naseem is playing well according to the situation

 

[jnaveen1980]

There is literally no comparison between India and Pakistan. These one-sided matches has killed ind pak rivalry. It used to be so close during Inzi's time.
#RIP Pakistan cricket.

India world no.1 ranked ODI side. Pakistan no.2 ranked ODI side. So they are more or less equal. This is definitely not the best bowling unit from India. Gingerly Shami, Pandya, Rookie Rana.

 

[ask_analyse_act]

i doubt we'll qualify for the next CT

host it again , free ticket lol

 

[Kroll]

#RIP Pakistan cricket.

We live for the occasional win every 5 or 6 years or so.

 

[Itachi]

Match 55-45 in the favor of India.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Happy heart the danger man.

There's no danger today

 

[Shafi]

Why parchi Shaheen comes earlier than Naseem? This guy has no brain to ball or bat. Got selected through connection.

 

[gazza619]

THATS why u should select real batters not hacks like riz,TT and parchi imam.

Acha. Who is the real batter available for Pakistan?

 

[jnaveen1980]

Naseem is a sensible batsman.

 

[Savak]

THATS why u should select real batters not hacks like riz,TT and parchi imam.

Not sure who the real batters are in Pakistans domestic system who will have any success against India. Sure the odd player will surprise because of the novelty factor but unlike the Pakistani team, you don't think the Indian players and support staff will watch videos, make observations, find weaknesses and actually exploit it successfully the second time around.

 

[mango_bite77]

Time & again Naseem
has proved he is better and more reliable batter than Shaheen. But no in Pak team can sense this.

 

[daytrader]

Jiska Kaptaan Rizwan ho woh selfish kyun na ho?

Kaptaan told him to take the review? And kaptaan was so selfish that he played for his fifty

 

[Dantheone]

I think Salman Ali Agha should bat up the order May be at 4

I said this on other post. He maybe better up the order but Rizwan needs to think himself as a less of a batsman with his limited skills.

 

[Nado_]

and we're pretty much out of the CT

We were out after the powerplay against New Zealand

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Match 55-45 in the favor of India.

It's 80-20 in favour of India

 

[Devadwal]

Match 55-45 in the favor of India.

No still 50-50 but another 50 runs put pakistan favourite .

 

[mrtaim3]

To be honest there is a huge gap in quality bw the two teams. India can select a University team and they will beat our best national team.

That’s not entirely true. The current lot are absolutely garbage but you can still unearth gems but there is just not the same willpower and determination from the management to do so.

The first and foremost this god forsaken needs is political stability and then professional management at PCB. We keep going back to boomers

 

[gazza619]

Khushdil ko contract do

Khushdil ko contract do

Khushdil ko contract do

I will do this for every 5 runs he score

 

[emranabbas]

The only fact proven again and again is once Rizwan gets out we collapse. As @Rana recognized earlier- he prevented a collapse and it restarted after his wicket

But with rizwan at the crease we will never go past 200 and still lose so what's point?

 

[Savak]

Shaheen has been big let down so far , cant bowl and bats above Naseem who is actually better than him..

It's not about Naseem being better. Naseem values his wicket and controls his impulses, he plays according to the situation

 

[Itachi]

Why parchi Shaheen comes earlier than Naseem? This guy has no brain to ball or bat. Got selected through connection.

To be fair, Shaheen can bat better than Naseem. He just got unlucky today.

 

[PakFan2010]

Khushdil is playing sensibly.

The first goal is to ensure Pakistan bat for all 50 overs.

 

[Ali T]

Naseem is a sensible batsman.

I feel like he should be coming before SSA

 

[psyoptica]

There is literally no comparison between India and Pakistan. These one-sided matches has killed ind pak rivalry. It used to be so close during Inzi's time.
#RIP Pakistan cricket.

Is it because Pakistan has regressed or India has improved so much?

 

[daytrader]

Into the last 5. Hoping Khushdil plays a blinder

 

[Dr_Bassim]

It’s just another border

It’s just another country where human beings live

Excuse Mr. Major today.

His Misbah consolidation strategy backfired today as usual.

 

[Devadwal]

Kya yar short bowl wo bhi outside the off kara rhe hai naseem ko

 

[Van_Sri]

There is literally no comparison between India and Pakistan. These one-sided matches has killed ind pak rivalry. It used to be so close during Inzi's time.
#RIP Pakistan cricket.

70s Pakistan Dominated India, 80s Pakistan thrashed India, 90s Pakistan Dominated India, 2000s *** for Tat Rivalry, 2010s India Dominated Pakistan, 2020s India Thrashed Pakistan.

 

[chinaman00]

IPL has revolutionized Indian Cricket and transformed it into NBA now. Best coaches, mentors, players, these investments over the past 17-18 years have filtered down to the Indian grass roots system. Pakistan is a good 20 years behind India in all facets.

Sadly true, but Pakistan did itself no favors but sticking to a dysfunctional and archaic system. Everything PCB does is mindless and counterintuitive. Even the psl which was billed as a great transformation has simply ended up being a massive failure where Shaheen is called an allrounder lol

 

[AAli98]

Shamis hair transplant is the most interesting thing in this match.

 

[Kroll]

Rizwan needs to bat at 6 or 7 if he's going to play ODI - hes not a proper bat.

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

These two guys are now squeezing valuable runs, that could prove to be crucial...hope our guys dont drop intensity and focus in bowling and fielding, we have done that lots of times in past..

 

[Itachi]

No still 50-50 but another 50 runs put pakistan favourite .

Yeah. This happy heart needs to go and it will be then 55-45

 

[Devadwal]

Damn we are losing the grip again. Giving easy runs

 

[ask_analyse_act]

Shaheen's position should be No. 10. He thinks himself of Wasim Akram but is not where even 10% of him.

exactly.. fueled by the peshawari boys by Mr. Rizwan , he even got Akif Javed in when Haris rauf got injured in the tri-nation series...

Kirsten was right in saying NO for Rizwan captaincy he probably saw and knew how he was manipulating Babar and Shaheen captaincy row...

 

[mominsaigol]

To be fair, Shaheen can bat better than Naseem. He just got unlucky today.

No he can't lol, it's a mystery why he's at no 8

 

[jnaveen1980]

It is painful to watch Shami. He is not even close to his best. WHy is he even being played

 

[Shafi]

H

To be fair, Shaheen can bat better than Naseem. He just got unlucky today.

e is neither a bowler nor a batsman. Even Bangladesh has 5 better fast bowler better than him. He is there because of Aaqib, Naqvi and Afridi

 

[Kianig89]

The hue and cry on Pakistan defeat will Start soon on local media

 

[Ali T]

Saim Ayub's bowling would have been pretty useful on this pitch

 

[Rana]

@Major my Indian visa will be approved much faster than a Pakistan legend like Saqlain Mushtaq

 

[Asad T]

I feel like he should be coming before SSA

he should come before riz and babar

 

[Devadwal]

Shami is totally out of the radar.

 

[Ahmed216]

Nice balance at the crease Naseem.

 

[Itachi]

No he can't lol, it's a mystery why he's at no 8

Have seen him punching 6s.

 

[Kianig89]

The top 4 played for themselves as mentioned earlier were digging out a hole 🕳

 

[Devadwal]

Bakwas bowling .

 

[Rana]

The hue and cry on Pakistan defeat will Start soon on local media

Oh bhai tension na le

Nahi banta shan Masood captain

 

[Itachi]

Shami is totally out of the radar.

Shouldn't be played against NZ. he will be smacked to the core

 

[globetrotter]

Shami purposely not bowled well today

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Shami bowling absolute pies...settign up his confectionary stall now...cmon...bowl some tailing reverse yorkers at the three wood pieces..

 

[Savak]

That’s not entirely true. The current lot are absolutely garbage but you can still unearth gems but there is just not the same willpower and determination from the management to do so.

The first and foremost this god forsaken needs is political stability and then professional management at PCB. We keep going back to boomers

Tbh we keep brushing aside the lack of quality, hard work, will to improve and desire take their game to the next level, having higher standards by the Pakistani players by constantly snipping at the PCB.

The PCB higher ups and the chairmens are not going to bat, bowl and field for these players. What did these pathetic sorry excuse of cricketers achieve for Pakistan when the PCB was led professionally by Ehsan Mani and Wasim Khan from 2018 to 2021?

 

[kron]

Shamis hair transplant is the most interesting thing in this match.

And axar
And Rohit too
I think Virat had one too

 

[mominsaigol]

Now I'm wondering why khusdil wasn't sent at 5 and Agha at 4

 

[Banda298]

Daryl mitchell
Latham
And will young will thrash kukdeepp

He sucks when he is hit

You just need to go after him
Mental midget

bhai tune life mei kya ukhada hai jo yadav jaise aala spinner ko midget bolta hai ?

 

[Kianig89]

Literally I got headache watching this innings

Oh bhai tension na le

Nahi banta shan Masood captain

 

[ravisurya]

This is a pitch where 260 is a very good score. Pakistan unlikely to reach that though.

 

[Rana]

The top 4 played for themselves as mentioned earlier were digging out a hole 🕳

Babar actually was playing ok

 

[mominsaigol]

Have seen him punching 6s.

In what? Psl

 

[Mas-LFC]

From the position Pakistan was after 10. needed to get least 260minimum!

He is rubbish in tests
Only in odi. Fraud player

different captains for different formats is the way to go then, maybe. I like Gill, likeable player, seems has a decent personality, like Dravid-esque type, well grounded!

 

[Nado_]

Damn we are losing the grip again. Giving easy runs

Relax bro Pakistan are not winning this , congratulations. Start focusing on who you might play in semis.

 

[ask_analyse_act]

Damn we are losing the grip again. Giving easy runs

India can chase easily even if pak score 280... especially against this toothless and less penetrative pak bowling attack...

Shaheen will be wicketless for his 10 overs.. Haris rauf will come and give 30 runs in his first 2 overs and then catch up ..

Abraar takes a solitary wicket , who cant even spin the ball lol...

 

[Ali T]

Full toss on Naseem's legs and took a single. Still one more than Saud Shakeel facing the same type of delivery. Difference is Saud had already faced 72 balls haha

 

[mrtaim3]

I would love to know why Shaheen bats ahead of Naseem.

I’ve been trying to understand this for years now even when Naseem shah has won us few games with his batting

 

[Banda298]

70s Pakistan Dominated India, 80s Pakistan thrashed India, 90s Pakistan Dominated India, 2000s *** for Tat Rivalry, 2010s India Dominated Pakistan, 2020s India Thrashed Pakistan.

world cup mei toh hamesha thrashing pak ho hi mili ..aage peeche jo kuch bhi hoo with umpire help

 

[FearlessRoar]

Three Indian left arm spinners. Three totally different trajectories. Tricky

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Naseem did ok. Cant blame him too much.

 

[m.shah]

Catching practice

 

[castortroy]

No idea against Kuldeep once again

 

[kingusama92]

This is a pitch where 260 is a very good score. Pakistan unlikely to reach that though.

Yeah the pitch will get harder to bat on later in the day.

But anything less than that won't be enough. Maybe if Pakistan had two high-quality spinners.

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Pitch has more for the spinners than faster bowlers.

The trouble is we have Agha and Khushdil as spinners.

 

[gani999]

Both Bangladesh and Pakistan managed big partnerships against this Indian bowling. NZ and the other stronger teams will thrash these Indian bowlers without mercy.

 

[Dantheone]

Pakistan batters don't know how to chase (except for 1 or 2 freak chases) and don't know how to set winning targets.

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

Come on Naseem. More was required from you.
