India v Pakistan | 2015 World Cup | Match 4 | 15th Feb, 2015 | Adelaide | India Innings

[Aman]

Tell me about it. ) And then they wonder why their team is in the dumps.

Check out some of the posts in the pre-discussion. ) Lelworthy.

Gotta love PP.

Sarfraz is apparently better than Watling with the bat and gloves )

 

[jusarrived]

Not a big fan of these PP overs , Just dont lose wickets trying hit everything

 

[Iffitheking]

Someone should tell Pakistanis that, diving doesn't mean a good fielding, but stopping runs is a good fielding...

 

[imshally81]

bad line irfan ... :4

 

[Mr Consistent]

Poor Ball

 

[dhump]

Honestly Irfan bowling loads of crap today.

 

[MRSN]

ruined good work by Wahab.

 

[Red Devil]

Kohli into the 90s

 

[Madplayer]

irfan is rubbish in later part of the innings

 

[Smbhayi]

rubbish ball by irfan. . kohli

 

[Arsal_AK]

And incase you havent noticed India has a much bigger population so thry will have the higher nombers.

60-40 seems about right.Lol at 90%.

 

[Strike Rate]

TBH this 3 fielder rule make it really a nightmare for bowler and captain

 

[siddharth]

Wahab does bowl very well here..

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

#wewontgiveitback at 91*

 

[Watsupdoc]

Easy pickings... Hit me ball.

Irfan is struggling now

 

[Shafi]

Seeing Zimbabwe playing we will end up loose to them.

 

[Aman]

[MENTION=132954]Aman[/MENTION] this what you call an atmosphere.

So all NZ need is 45,000 Indians to create an atmosphere?

 

[SL_Fan]

Those drops proving real costly.

 

[Kianig89]

Kohli playing for 100

 

[dhump]

Not a big fan of these PP overs , Just dont lose wickets trying hit everything

Playing very sensible cricket and not hitting out very good tactic by India.

 

[MRSN]

Someone should tell Pakistanis that, diving doesn't mean a good fielding, but stopping runs is a good fielding...

well at least someone is putting effort..gotta give them that.

 

[Shafi]

Hack Irfan is showing his class!!

 

[Smbhayi]

lol afridi shouting misbah..

 

[habibi hayya]

All of wahabs work gone to waste.

 

[Logical]

nervous 90s for Kohli ?

 

[Arsal_AK]

Irfan is all over the place.

 

[Strike Rate]

I'll say one thing though, even though this team sucks and we're getting hammered right now the body language hasn't dropped as much as you'd expect.

Better Pakistani teams than this would have imploded by now.

This! there is a clear difference in body language today

 

[MRSN]

powerplay has been good so far.

 

[Saeed]

I hope they don't show kohli's celebration after his century cause I am sure he will jump up and down like a lunatic.

 

[Smbhayi]

Not much enthusiasm by Pak. .

 

[siddharth]

I'll say one thing though, even though this team sucks and we're getting hammered right now the body language hasn't dropped as much as you'd expect.

Better Pakistani teams than this would have imploded by now.

Spot on,they look very much in control oppose to waht PPers claim.

 

[ScotRaz]

lol afridi shouting misbah..

Afridi doing a hostile takeover of the captaincy

 

[CalculatedRisk]

Irfan is bowling pure filth

 

[Smbhayi]

rubbish ball but lucky Pak dot ball..

 

[mon858]

what was afridi saying htere to misbah in a angry way??

 

[MRSN]

another crap but Raina fails to make something out of it..

 

[Justcrazy]

what is the point in playing 5 bowlers ?

 

[Mr Consistent]

 

[Smbhayi]

 

[imshally81]

Not a wide bowl

 

[Arsal_AK]

Irfan.

 

[Haseeb 22]

Im very unhappy with our media for hyping our chances in this match,

Got fans like me thinking we had a chance when in reality it was always a mismatch

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Kohli playing for 100

He is not in the zone the whole match.

Going from 80 to 100 run a ball (20 balls 20 runs or 25 balls 20 runs) is fine.

Sets the platform.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Scoring is not that easy right now. Irfan and Wahab are keeping their length back and the bounce is hard to adjust to I reckon. Anything over 300 would be good enough I think.

 

[Strike Rate]

21 runs in 4 pp overs.

 

[TalhaSyed]

I'll say one thing though, even though this team sucks and we're getting hammered right now the body language hasn't dropped as much as you'd expect.

Better Pakistani teams than this would have imploded by now.

Not much enthusiasm by Pak. .

The beauty of PakPassion....

 

[Smbhayi]

7 tuns from the over.

 

[Kianig89]

Afridi getting Jazbaati 2

 

[Justcrazy]

This is just poor planning . Pakistan would struggle against all teams

 

[MRSN]

India not making full use of the Powerplay.

 

[Watsupdoc]

Irfan should just go back in the hut now and sip on tea

 

[Savak]

Outstanding death bowling and then outstanding batting is our only hope now.

 

[Madplayer]

haris has fielded well today. he has come leaps and bounds as far as his fielding is concerned. created a couple of chances with his bowling as well. pakistan's player of the match so far after sohail khan.

 

[jusarrived]

Playing very sensible cricket and not hitting out very good tactic by India.

They seem to have learnt . At one point we used lose 2-3 wickets in these overs

 

[Smbhayi]

Not a wide bowl

really.. even irfan himself can't reach that..

 

[CalculatedRisk]

India don't need to go for 350. 300 is already way more than PAK can get.

 

[mon858]

guys overs are running by and they are hardly getting those 10-12/over overs. they even need 8 runs per over to get 300+.

things are in control.

 

[OmaIR1]

Scoring is not that easy right now. Irfan and Wahab are keeping their length back and the bounce is hard to adjust to I reckon. Anything over 300 would be good enough I think.

I think if India score more than 250 then it's over for Pakistan. This pitch could be a batting paradise but Pakistan will crumble under pressure.

 

[Suleiman]

Kohli set for another 183

 

[Justcrazy]

213 / 2

39 overs

 

[Strike Rate]

Kohli need to accelerate

 

[Abhilash93]

Kohli doesnt look in beastly form today even though he is in the 90s

 

[Smbhayi]

Raina jumping against short ball..

 

[CalculatedRisk]

Wasim getting grilled on his dodgy decisons.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

I think if India score more than 250 then it's over for Pakistan. This pitch could be a batting paradise but Pakistan will crumble under pressure.

280 is par bro.

If we score 300, its advantage for us but not sure shot win.

350 game over.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Misbah single handedly gave Raina an easy pathway to get settled.

 

[Smbhayi]

Kohli is tired. .

 

[Bullet Drive]

Anyway bowling has been very good of late. We have saved quite a few runs.

Sohail has to be special at the death.

Need to restrict under 280.

 

[DarkKnightRisesAgain]

I already had a good night sleep, I woke up at 8, It seems that you are the ones who need sleep because I'm sure you didn't had much sleep last night because of the sheer joy of expectations and euphoria of excitement which is meddling away courtesy pathetic display from your home side.

 

[dhump]

They seem to have learnt . At one point we used lose 2-3 wickets in these overs

Its easy when playing against someone like Pakistan. Not a quality attack you can hit and score anytime you want and secondly if they have to chase anything above 220 its game on and 260 out of reach.

 

[habibi hayya]

Wahab is the only bowler that has put in work today.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Kohli playing pretty selfishly......

 

[Laal]

The drop-in pitches are such a disappointment. Too much depends on who wins the toss bats first.

 

[Saeed]

Even Zimbabwe has a better chance at winning this World cup than Pakistan.

 

[Iffitheking]

Kohli is playing a selfish cricket... they scored just 23 runs in 4.3 PP overs... pathetic...

 

[mnoman15]

Better bowling in power overs

 

[habibi hayya]

Yasir Shah is new smiley Khan. Seems like yks ghost will haunt us even after he leaves.

 

[Smbhayi]

wow good shot by Raina. . single..

 

[Electron]

40 overs, and we are yet to accelerate even after having 8 wickets at hand.

 

[TalhaSyed]

This is where Pakistani bowlers need to think back to how SL bowled to India in last year's T20 Final . Yorkers outside off stump mixed in with the odd bouncer and slower ball is the way to go in the final 10 overs.
