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

[Asad T]

Eagle bowling heat. Rapid

141 again


141.2 average speed

Fastest 144

it's fast but not express
express is 145+ imo

but 140 is still faster than his usual troddler stuff

 

[Bhaijaan]

Shaheen rehn do bhai Yorker nahi ho rahi aaap se

 

[jamie smith]

Game over.

 

[shaf]

No swing for Afridi so bowling full isn't potent anymore.

 

[Kianig89]

Pakistan vs Bangladesh might be a proper contest , Losers Trophy

 

[jnaveen1980]

Has he ever been fit?

Lmao

Today extra unfit today. He moves like an 80 year old man.

 

[Sachin fan]

Did the pitch mysteriously get better for India all of a sudden ?

Yeh Jaddu Kiyah hai

It's the intent, even mishits are going for boundaries when they have intent.

 

[TNAmarkFromIndia]

Shaheen needs to bowl one shirt here

Shirt, pant, he needs to bowl whatever it takes to get a wicket here.

 

[kron]

Shaheen 145.2

Pace off might be needed for this pitch

Shot gill

 

[shaz619]

Your bowlers have pace

We did not give you much. Only Harshit had some pace but he mixed it up beautifully. Underrated spell from him today:

Aamir would have been perfect on this pitch, you need variation here, these guys have zero Bowling IQ, they may get lucky with a false shot or something but they are making it very easy for India at the moment running in like headless chicken as if they think they are Wasim and Waqar

 

[Energy]

Batters can't score runs. Bowlers can't contain runs.

Story of Pakistan.

 

[Ali T]

Took us 40 overs to hit a 6 which took India 1.3 overs haha

 

[emranabbas]

Where are those people who were saying its a 250 pitch

 

[Bhaijaan]

but but dubai pitch is difficult

Once the spinners come on.

After 10 overs it will start to get slow. Target for Bharat is get as many before the pitch gets slow and low

 

[baba ghazi]

what is the point of bowling full tosses..poor bowling

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

The host nation on the verge of being the first team to be knocked out from the tournament and that too by their rival.

Yikes. Embarrassing

 

[Kroll]

This match is unbearable to watch

its a no contest, naseem bowled exactly to where rohit likes it on the leg to swoop for 6, basically eat all you can eat buffet bowling, hes a brainless bowler

 

[Bhaijaan]

Naseem bhai, we got to be careful with him. You can’t slog him

 

[Rana]

Pakistan getting smashed

Rizwan’s response to this will be to bring Abrar into the attack

Predictable

 

[kron]

it's fast but not express
express is 145+ imo

but 140 is still faster than his usual troddler stuff

2 balls 145 plus just now

But pitch might be better off with pace off deliveries here

 

[Kianig89]

Pak players should return back to Karachi via camels

 

[shaz619]

It's the intent, even mishits are going for boundaries when they have intent.

Absolutely.

This is the difference between 90’s cricket and cricket in 2025.

 

[shaf]

Babar and co need to sit down and watch these two bat.

Learn some lessons.

 

[Kianig89]

Huge gap between Pakistan and India

 

[Asad T]

Took us 40 overs to hit a 6 which took India 1.3 overs haha

rohit also hit a full toss for a dot ball
saud vibessss

 

[Greenstorm]

Need quick wickets.

 

[mominsaigol]

Sarfi: wins ct with zero expectations from any fan.

Rizwan: First team to be eliminated from CT despite being favourites and playing on home + Neutral soil that they've played the most on.

What a joke.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Pakistani fans like fancy dresses

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Gill bhai aram se

Hone wale sasur ji bhi match dekh rahe hai.

 

[Rana]

How does this feel like a Pakistan home match? The DJ is controlling this like a India home game.

PCB sleeping??

 

[baba ghazi]

superb shot by rohit..even an otherwise unfir player is smashing naseem for fun..

 

[Kroll]

we're getting slaughtered, make it stop, throw in the towel FFS

 

[Asif321]

These useless pacers can’t match Mohammad Amir tbh .

 

[m.shah]

God help those who help themselves.
It's all about intent.
Pakistan's superstars getting smashed by Rohit

 

[Asad T]

Sarfi: wins ct with zero expectations from any fan.

Rizwan: First team to be eliminated from CT despite being favourites and playing on home + Neutral soil that they've played the most on.

What a joke.

we were favorites?

 

[shaz619]

Forget about the fact that they don’t have skill x or y, there is literally no desire to win, the intent should come from the will to survive and remain in the tournament, they are just going through the motions.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Rohit bhai not gonna care.

Steps down and smashes young Naseem for

 

[Shafi]

How long we have to persist with Shaheen and Naseem?

 

[Rana]

Is that the legend Chiranjeevi in the stands?

 

[batandballbattle]

Once the spinners come on.

After 10 overs it will start to get slow. Target for Bharat is get as many before the pitch gets slow and low

they will have already made plenty by that time as you said
people were putting too much stock in the pitch whereas I knew shaheen and naseem were going to give away plenty because they aren't the same bowlers anymore

 

[m.shah]

These useless pacers can’t match Mohammad Amir tbh .

Mohammad Amir last talented player that came from Pakistan

 

[Bhaijaan]

Forget about the fact that they don’t have skill x or y, there is literally no desire to win, the intent should come from the will to survive and remain in the tournament, they are just going through the motions.

Bro, you needed like 270sh here

I think bowling so far is ok.

 

[PakFan2010]

This is no longer a rivalry.

Pakistan are irrelevant in world cricket.

 

[BlindingLight]

As usual

Aukaat..

 

[kingusama92]

Look at how many lofted shots they play.

It's a totally different approach to the first ten overs.

 

[Asad T]

i guess there are no demons in this wicket after all

 

[Rana]

Rohit smirk there like Randy Orton

 

[Devadwal]

Good slower bouncer by Naseem.

 

[IndoorCricket]

Is that the legend Chiranjeevi in the stands?

Yes..

 

[m.shah]

Why is Naseem shah laughing after getting hit .
Softy

 

[TheNeutralist]

Is that the legend Chiranjeevi in the stands?

Tollywood superstar Chiranjeevi in stands

 

[Bhaijaan]

Clever slow ball from Naseem. Rohit was ready to launch that but Naseem saw it and bowled slow.

Good stuff

 

[mango_bite77]

Pitching looking better and boundaries shorter, ICC=BCCI

 

[jamie smith]

Dear PCT,
TUMSAI NA HOPAYEGA.

 

[kron]

Dinesh dumb karthik
@jnaveen1980

When naseem and Shaheen bowls 140 plus he is like they are bowling quick at 140 pace

When harshit or mayank bowls quick, great medium pacers

Cuck much?

 

[Kroll]

There's no zero threat from these Pak bowlers

 

[Asif321]

Mohammad Amir last talented player that came from Pakistan

True . Nothing after asif amir

 

[PakFan2010]

Imam should watch and learn.

Rohit is what a proper batsmen looks like.

 

[Greenstorm]

You are supposed to go over the infield in PP overs. Our openers try to thread the needle.

 

[gani999]

Eagle bowling heat. Rapid

141 again


141.2 average speed

Fastest 144

This obsession with pace is the biggest reason for the decline of Pakistan's bowling attack. It is also the reason why no Pakistani bowler bar Wasim Akram has had the longevity to take more than 400 test wickets.

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Is that the legend Chiranjeevi in the stands?

yeah...with Tilak Varma...

 

[khyberlion]

These players have no shame. Smiling after getting hit.

 

[U$ofA]

Timid is the only word I have to describe Pak. batsmen approach.

Given how the Ind. openers have started.

 

[Rana]

Afridi still a big star

 

[Asad T]

Look at how many lofted shots they play.

It's a totally different approach to the first ten overs.

yes
first 10 overs the approach should be to hit over the in-field
10-40 you can use players that are more skilled at finding the gaps

 

[Savak]

Shaheen dumbly bowling inswinger after inswinger. He's in denial that the delivery is still a scary weapon

 

[emranabbas]

naseem after getting smashed by indian batsmen

 

[PakFan2010]

Rizwan took the demons out of the pitch.

 

[mominsaigol]

we were favorites?

According to Van Goh yes.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Aamir would have been perfect on this pitch, you need variation here, these guys have zero Bowling IQ, they may get lucky with a false shot or something but they are making it very easy for India at the moment running in like headless chicken as if they think they are Wasim and Waqar

Of course Amir bhai different level bro. He was a DEMON with the new ball. God damn. We were more at ease against Wasim bhai and Vikky The Jatt than against Amir. As a Bharat fan, no opposition bowler has ever made me more nervous to see our openers against new ball than Amir followed by Boult and Pollock.

 

[IAJ]

Look at how many lofted shots they play.

It's a totally different approach to the first ten overs.

While our players are seeing of the new balls lol. I know Indian batmen are more skilled but at least you have to show intent and try to get over the top.

 

[Rana]

You are supposed to go over the infield in PP overs. Our openers try to thread the needle.

No you are supposed to blunt the two new balls

 

[Kroll]

You are supposed to go over the infield in PP overs. Our openers try to thread the needle.

they dont have the skill or confidence, you're talking about imam here.

 

[Greenstorm]

These useless pacers can’t match Mohammad Amir tbh .

Amir had one spell tbh.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Gill casually edging it away

 

[emranabbas]

Muhammed amir wouldn't have been going fir a phainty

 

[FearlessRoar]

His face is telling everything

 

[kron]

139.7
141.4
139.1

Eagle bowling well

 

[Rana]

Rizwan took the demons out of the pitch.

Yes boy

 

[jamie smith]

We need a whole revmp to survive.
We are worse than even zimbabwe.
