Shameful coping mechanism at display already by a lot of Bharatiya fans.

The way they’re talking about the team, it’s as if we are ranked #8 in the world and don’t belong in the semi finals.

Some of you are never happy. If you feel the team is so poor why even bother watching. Who are you fooling?

A true fan stands with the team in tough moments. We are in this through thick and thin.

That’s what I have vowed to reduce those who promote Misbah’s pathetic agenda here. Nothing more than mere shadows. I will still do whatever is in my power to erase them. That is my service to Pakistan cricket. Believe that!

You're delusional to the point of no return. This is an online message board. You don't even know my real name. And here you are thinking you're some kind of influencer lol. You ain't doing jack and you're better off needling the usual posters you needle to get your kicks. Because I won't be as kind to you as they are.

Thanks Momin bhai.

They get on my nerves bro. I mean this team is freaking 20-1 in ICC tournaments in last 21 matches and the only loss being a World Cup final and these people never happy. Acting like you lost big totals for fun. If it was so easy why Bangladesh isn’t doing it. Why all these top teams are out of the tourney already.

Little bit of a tough passage of play and all these snowflakes go against the team like that. It’s disgraceful.
 
Highest strike-rate against pace in ODIs since 2023

141 - Heinrich Klaasen
121 - Shreyas Iyer
121 - Mitchell Marsh
119 - Rohit Sharma
117 - Aiden Markram

*Min 500 balls

Champ!...keep going bro :)
 
Just tuned in, what a catch that was from Mr 800 pushups...
Jamieson is an awesome bowler, height bounce and swing and to throw in some amount of pace also, if you have 2.5 of those ,u r a pretty good bowler....
meanwhile fightback by these lads, 50 of the partnership is up...
 
Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma still being in the team on their form is a travesty.

That much I’m sure of. 3 down for little or not much is manageable against a lot of teams, but crunch games against better teams …. Often too much work to be done.
 
NZ's bowling attack is top class --> Henry, O'Rourke, Jamieson, Santner, Bracewell.

No respite for India.

Thought 'we' meant Afghan Cricket team? When did you flip back to us?
 
I wake up to see Ravindra bowling. I guess this is a spinners wicket.

Are NZ one spinner short?
 
Rizbab level batting from these 2.
Need to accelerate.
250 will be nowhere close to enuogh
 
The problem.is India is too good same batting template as kiwis and thats what it should be. Axar was a bowler i remember and now he is bats in top.order..bracewell is a batting opener in domestic..ravindra jadeja is class bat n grt bowler ..thats the reason of success in white ball not shaheen afridi coming at number 7....
 
Lot of turn on offer, is this a used pitch? India still plays spin quite well ..except maybe Kohli. 260 will be a challenging score here if there is minimal dew

Can't believe Indian dressing room is standing up to clap for a 75 ball 50

They stand up every time and clap for 80 balls 50 by the captain of Pakistan Rizwan

You stand and clap too. Why are you surprised now?
 
India will beat Aus. We easily can. Just drop the 3 players I mentioned and we can

If we insist on playing them then it’s difficult but still doable

Need to get heard out early

Don’t worry about the rest

India hold a better h2h vs Aus in champions trophy
 
Good catch by KW....
good innings considering the situation by Akshar...
Rachin never ceases to surprise - gettinh max turn
 
From Cricinfo:
Ravindra to Axar Patel, OUT
Top edge, soft dismissal! Axar cannot believe it. Short and spinning in on middle and leg, 93.8kph, he goes back to just direct it to the on side. The bat face was facing down, he never intended to hit it in the air. The ball bounces more, takes the top edge and almost evades Williamson, who runs sideways to his back from short fine leg, sticks out his right hand to hold on to that. Ravindra breaks the 98-run stand


Lol, "sof dismissal, he cannot believe it, he never intended ot hit in the air."

Trying their best to make it sound like this was the biggest surprise of the century.
 
Axar what stopped you from scoring at high clip today?
Except the greed to improve your average which is 21 currently
 
What a disciplined and process driven team New Zealand is. They got the best fielding display every time and got the best fielder in the world in shape of Mr. Phillips.

Deserve to win this CT25.
 
If only Pakistan had done their job of beating this Indian side. They would've been on clutches figuring out a way not to lose to New Zealand.
 
Big difference between Subcontinent player and SENA nation's is that later can Play unorthodox shots against spinners but subcontinent player's can't.
