India smash Pakistan by eight wickets with superb all-round display

Need 2/3 wickets in the first 5 overs to stand a chance
 
Btw, what was that stupid question by Rameez about Jadhav taking his role seriously? :))
 
Put the cat amongst the pigeons, pressure does weird things. Plus India don't have Pandya
 
Chalo bhai ye dhawan rohit ko chalta karo jaldi jaldi
 
Pak has enough on the board.

Indian batting is just Rohit and Dhawan. The rest are a joke and Pandya will not bat.

If Pak can reduce India to 10/2 or something in the first 5 overs, Pak will surely fancy their chances.

Not selecting Rahul will hurt India.
 
Irrespective of the result. I'm afraid Pakistani bowlers just might try too extra.

Actually Pandya going off changed the tide of the match we were cruising up until that point. Watch how India now unleash Pandya, he would be fit and firing. Might even throw in a summersault on his way out to the crease.
 
Phainti coming up boys. Brace yourselves for the influx of Indian trolls everyone. Time to take it on the chin :dw
 
Dhawan and Sharma might go on attack to try and get the bulk of the runs ASAP. This will give an opportunity to our bowlers
 
Jawans being shown cheering on India, waiving the flag, and wishing them good luck to win. I thought nobody in India cared about this match? Or maybe Indian PPers don't care enough about these Jawans to consider their opinion?

You mean it was all drama? Is he Hardik Pandya or Chunkey Pandya
 
They should just run in and bowl flat out quick. An attack of Usman,Aamir,Hasan, faheem,shadab is comfortably the best and most versatile bowling attack in the world. If any attack can defend it it is Pakistan.
 
Pathetic from star. Showing Indian military in Kashmir cheering for India. What has that got to do with the match? Pathetic and unnecessary.

What are you talking about? Are you suggesting that they faked an injury and lost an allrounder just to get Pandey in as a substitute fielder?

Of course the media will show all of it to milk for what it's worth. It's what they do. But there's no build up or buzz about this match AT ALL. None. I have been at work and not a single guy spotted at the cafeteria to follow the match. This never happens.

Personally, have only followed it sporadically on Cricinfo. I was way more interested in knowing the score made by Shaw (98 of 66 balls) and Gill (107) in Vijay hazare trophy. Much more gratifying than the geriatric losers who populate India's middle order in today's match.

Surely even you won't expect that middle order to mess it up today? The match is handed to them on a plate.

hmmmmm but the trend is 2 balls out and 1 coming in ...:amir2

With Sharma hit plumb in front which he thinks about reviewing but told by his partner to "get on your bike mate" :sethi
 
I wonder how Sarfaraz will captson today. Lots of screaming and ranting?
 
It looks like this is going to be an amazing tournament from next stage
 
Pakistan is panicking too much. With no Kohli, Rahul and Pandya, this 160 runs is too much to handle for our current Indian batters. See how we crumble in pressure in the first 10 overs.

You lot have to be downright catastrophic to mess this up
 
We need 2/3 wicket by pacers up front and Shadab to get a fifer atleast

160 is too easy. One partnership will mean curtains for Pakistan. Also we are a spinner short on this rubbish wicket.
 
If India doesn't chase this they should just excuse themselves from the rest of the tournament. Even Afg can chase this.

Bhaijaan, Pakistan slipped up today despite winning the toss against an average Indian team without our best player. Not to mention they just finished a match less than 24 hours ago. Also down to 10 men. This is still Pakistan's to lose.
 
If they stay calm, set fields which look for wickets and hold their catches, they have every chance. Get Malik bowling early, Shadab should come in after the 15th and lets hope Hasan and Amir get reverse.

Pitches will only lower and slower. Could become a low scoring tournament. 6 more matches to go, Dubai pitch will be put us to a sleep by the time final comes.

We don't have batters to build that one partnership. Our middle order is a joke with Karthik, Dhoni and jadhav and our tail starts with Dhoni. Pak has to just pick the wickets of Rohit and Dhawan, that's all.

Agreed. Even with Kohli our batting is massively overrated. We need to play out of our skins to overcome Pak bowling in their home conditions.

he he great mental pressure applied on Indians :)) I also did the same in Pakistan batting thread :)
 
It's good to imagine and prepare and think of outcomes yourself. This can happen, that can happen. But really 160 runs to defend is almost impossible.

See your posts now and we will see your posts after you win.



We all can see through your fake humility and jinxing attempts :babar
 
I think Indian fans will be happy to lose this tournament.. Look at their middle order.. There's no life in there
 
Looks like Pakistan have made a good score...if it was a T20.
 
This is perfect score for Dhoni and Bhuvi to play. No pressure game and less than 4 RR. people who are talking about indian's middle order, let me tell you this. They are the best when RR is less than 4 .
 
This performance reminds me of the first match of that tri-series in Zimbabwe. This might be as big a phainta bros :sree
