A lot of nerves and pressure of the game got to the players. The only good thing from a pakistani fan's perspective is that this game is non consequential. Frankly our shots were poor and india did well to bowl us out after only being given a run the day before. Our main concern is aamir's wicket taking capability, sardaraz's resp as a batsman and fakhar's struggle on such slow tracks. I sincerely hope a reality check like this will make the next game more interesting but for the time being we have afghani spinners to take care of.

And to be frank our cockiness got us out too.... we have landed back from our ct17 dream win...time to gear up again. If ind and pak both make it to the finals then its anybody's game

so just because Kohli is not playing its your B team? Shows how much faith you have in your own team tbh

Even k l rahul is rested

I thought, people were happy to see 6 FAST bowlers for Asia Cup in UAE.

I'd be content if those 6 fast bowlers in the squad were of the caliber of Wasim/Waqar/Shoaib/Razzaq. Not these cannon fodders like Amir/Shinwari/Faheem. Hasan is a good bowler and can be excused for having a bad day but the others are just simply mediocre.

Ravindra Jadeja and Siddharth Kaul to fly to Dubai to replace Axar Patel (thumb) and Shardul Thakur (groin) in India's ODI squad.

No but Kohli is a captain as well, also Pandya got.injured in the middle.and there were only 10 players proper, did sub but still

Its part of the game. Tamim,our best inform batsman got injured but we won easily without him.Cricket is a team game. I don't rate any team which is so heavily dependent upon one player.

Honestly there would bbe nothing muh to read in this game but the manner in which pakistan performed is high concern. Let alone india we are under par agaisnt the likes of afg and bd in terms of performance so far now. The turnaround has to be quick and i believe we can. But for that our key players need to fire with full cylinders. In ct no one gave us a chance so there was nothing to lose. Now pakistan has made a name for itself. This time the expectations are sky high.

Also on a fair point sarfaraz needs to perform more with the bat than his mouth. He is a clever guy and has the calibre to do better. He has done it before and he can do it again

Well played India commiserations Pakistan. Just too good for anyone in the SC. This batting line-up tho the middle order looks real iffy. Had Pakistan batters managed to put up a half decent score things might have gotten a bit interesting.

Brother any team can beat anyday. Infact this India team might lose against BD on friday...its not even our C team. But you should hv seen the arrogance of few posters here before the game.

Result - 8 wickets phainta...epic

It was your A team. Kohli was the only big name missing. Don't say certain players were injured as that is the case with every team.

No.

I had a feeling we would lose after everyone started hyping us. I only got to watch the first 30-ish mins because of classes, but what a dreadful start it was.
