India v Pakistan | ICC WT20 2016 | Kolkata | Mar 19, 2016 | Pakistan Innings

[Markhor]

Desperately hope there's no overs reduction, just cheapens the occasion.

Imran with a few words now. Bit of winding up

 

[akamaka]

abhishek lol )

 

[Pakistani Pace]

Why's amitabh here?

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Lol good stuff Imran but this is unnecessary. At least we shouldve had the damn toss first

 

[Naim]

Wth man. Just start match. Why they are wasting time

 

[WC-Passion]

This is actually the biggest troll ever by India.

What the hell does Bollywood have to do with this? )

 

[Watsupdoc]

Imran Khan speaking now.

 

[Red Devil]

Is it though?

I'm watching legends getting flowers. )

It is, they're doing all this for this match only, just goes to show how big the rivalry is.

 

[HitWicket]

9 mins left for the toss to take place before overs start getting lost.

 

[Strike Rate]

What a punch line by Imran lol in the end "I hope the result today is going to be same just like the result when i played last time on this ground"

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Please tell me they are not wasting time from the looks of the cricinfo commentary it seems IK is giving a short speech We all love you Immy lekin............ Jaldi Kar !!!!!!!

 

[Hamza_]

What on earth is going on?

 

[Pakistani Pace]

Imran Khan Owning The Indians

 

[Adnan_Ilyas]

Come on man when is it going to start

 

[Watsupdoc]

Huge roar for Sachin, Sachin! What a legend this guy is!

 

[Greenshadow]

Please tell me they are not wasting time from the looks of the cricinfo commentary it seems IK is giving a short speech We all love you Immy lekin............ Jaldi Kar !!!!!!!

Only spoke for a minute tbf.

But everyone has something to say which is time consuming.

 

[Suleiman]

Now they are unnecessarily wasting time.

 

[Arsal_AK]

What is Amitabh doing there??

 

[crick23]

What is going on? LOL

 

[WC-Passion]

No words.

 

[Barragan]

A wash out would be the best result here.

More rain please.

 

[Strike Rate]

What is BCCI obsession with bollywood? Why always involve them

 

[Masterzz]

Oye!!! Match start krr!!!!!!!!! Yaar! Demaagh peerh raha hai!

 

[Pakistani Pace]

What a punch line by Imran lol in the end "I hope the result today is going to be same just like the result when i played last time on this ground"

This is why he's a legend!

 

[Indian_Supporter]

Ok its pretty embarrasing now. Cant we get the game started???

lmao watch them give abishek a speech too!

 

[Rahul2020]

U n b e l i e v a b l e.

Please stop this and get on with toss..Last thin we want to see is loss of overs because Crick. assoc. bengal's ego is bigger than cricket

 

[Couch Cricketer]

Shoes will damage the pitch?

No they don't own shoes but Chapals and can't go with these onto the ground. Anyway barefoot give more grip in most conditions compared to shoes

[Sandeep]

Pointless stuff. CAB, shame on you.

 

[Watsupdoc]

So this was organized by Ganguly and Abishek apparently.

 

[Varun]

This is actually the biggest troll ever by India.

What the hell does Bollywood have to do with this? )

This is more of the IPL hungama effect spilling over.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Should have done these useless stuff after the match yaar, no point in wasting match time.

Hilarious stuff from BCCI/ICC

 

[Varun]

"My Sachin Tendulkar, my amitobh bocchan, Chewaghh"

"ICCI"

 

[cricfan967]

Indians seem so warm welcoming to Pakistan but won't play a bilateral series and continue to exclude in IPL?

 

[Arsal_AK]

What is going on there??

 

[taqi]

Still there is cover on field

This was one of the most embarrassing thing on a cricket field.

 

[Rahul2020]

Mamatha is using the opportunity for her political advertisements..junk

 

[Pakistani Pace]

Lol. )

 

[TurkishCricketFan]

I actually liked the ceremony, these little details go a long way of bringing people together.

 

[IgnitedMind]

They are still working on ground...some covers are still there. Meanwhile they organized this

Talk about political promotion........

 

[habibi hayya]

Today is out day. I have a feeling in my gut.








Or that might be the gyro i ate last night.

 

[WC-Passion]

Toss was supposed to be like one hour ago.

This is a joke.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Come on yaar, finish this off.

 

[Strike Rate]

If i am not wrong when last time Pakistan played in Kolkata back in 2012 they also had a ceremony for Wasim, Dada, Kapil, Gavaskar etc?

 

[Sandeep]

"My Sachin Tendulkar, my amitobh bocchan, Chewaghh"

"ICCI"

The silence of the crowd was reassuring. I can see what's going to happen in Bengal elections..

 

[Jabo]

Give us 20 overs!!!!

 

[Yanna_Rascala]

Imran Khan the legend dropping Bombs...I love this man

 

[Red Devil]

People need to stop crying honestly. A 10-15 minute ceremony is no big deal, in fact, I thought it was a nice touch.

 

[WC-Passion]

"Now it's time to get on with the game"

YES!

 

[Rahul2020]

alright..it looks like they are still removing the covers and supersop is working. I guess they wanted to use the time and shove some crap our throat.

[Strike Rate]

Why CM was using "My" with everything? My Sachin, My Amitabh, My Gavaskar?

 

[hamzie]

People need to stop crying honestly. A 10-15 minute ceremony is no big deal,

when the toss shouldve been done almost an hour ago.. it is a big deal

 

[taqi]

Any news on toss?

This.

 

[Naim]

Worst the psl opening ceremony

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Call about an OTT reaction

 

[lahoriyah1234]

Great Imran Khan overshadowing everyone out there. What a Personality he has forever LEGEND. Love You Imran Khan...

 

[Rahul2020]

actually..I don't think they will do toss early/normal_time when it is raining..I understand they want to give captains enough opportunity to re-look at the pitch and reassess whether to bat or bowl should they win the toss.

 

[Varun]

Can someone PM me a stream?

Star Sports has a fantastic player on their site. Very next-gen.

5 mins delayed if you're in India though.

 

[Strike Rate]

Just to remind you guys the last match Imran mentioned was Nehru Cup Final on this ground and we won this 6 teams tournament. Final was against Windies Imran got 3 wickets and scored a 50. (He was man of the match and man of the series)

 

[Indiafan]

Match to start at 8:25pm IST

 

[96NotOut]

Worst the psl opening ceremony

Oh no. Nothing can top that.

 

[yasir]

Did we had toss yet??

Did Amitabh sing " MERE ANGE NE MAIN" ?)))

 

[90MPH]

I don't want any crappy 15 over a side match.

 

[WC-Passion]

Oh no. Nothing can top that.

At-least it didn't actually delay the match for an hour more than it should have.

 

[Suleiman]

Is BCCI trying to avoid a loss here? hmmm....

Very suspicious. This ceremony is being held a little too long

 

[Indiafan]

when the toss shouldve been done almost an hour ago.. it is a big deal

True but they cannot have the toss until the last cover is removed and the captains can see the pitch and ground. Still embarrassing TBH

 

[Red Devil]

when the toss shouldve been done almost an hour ago.. it is a big deal

The main delay was caused by the rain.

 

[lahoriyah1234]

Really Hoping for a Miracle tonight, I hope Pakistan Wins for Once Sake please...

 

[Red Devil]

At-least it didn't actually delay the match for an hour more than it should have.

It did, actually
