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

[Pakistani Pace]

Inshallah Pakistan Will Win

 

[Indiafan]

Apparently they are going to waste time on some stupid functions before the match. Surely they can do it after the toss?

 

[#GreenRoars]

Calm down guys i think Nasser is there i am sure i heard his voice when they showed latest scenes. Nasser commentary in Pakistani match is always amazing!

Marra kab hoga toss?

 

[#GreenRoars]

What is the need of these bloody functions yaar?

 

[Madplayer]

Sticky wicket. A very tricky call for the one who wins the toss

Nasser is there, you probably heard him doing the report for sky he just did from the ground.

He says key says the wicket is very dry and likely to turn without a blade of grass.

 

[Greenshadow]

All about the money. Less about the game.

 

[battler]

Yawn! Start the match already!

 

[Suleiman]

Very anticlimatic all this. At least we will get a game.

 

[Adnan_Ilyas]

Hope Nassir comentates, love his commentary

 

[hamzie]

groundsman look hard at work
theyre doing their best boyz relax ay

 

[Strike Rate]

"Save your legs in the deep, that's going to be four!"

"We know which Pakistan has turned up today, its the one to be afraid of"

During World T20 2009

 

[Lurker_Ind]

Where is the professionalism from BCCI or CAB? The groundsmen walking without shoes and pants folded up to their knees

 

[the Great Khan]

What's the wicket like?? India easy favourites here..

 

[Square Drive]

Start the bloody game already...

Yea he was doing the progress report from ground so he is there.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Unnecessary annoying delays. At least do the damn toss

 

[#GreenRoars]

Very un-professional stuff

 

[Strike Rate]

Marra kab hoga toss?

jab hona hoga tab hojayega

 

[London_Lahori]

Rob Key reckons the pitch is very dry and will spin....

 

[90MPH]

Bowl first if there's anything for the bowlers. Pak have good enough bowlers to make inroads.

It will be stupid to bat first just because we are good at batting first.

oh nooooooooo labourers without shoes walking on grass oh nooooo call off the tournament ahhh

WTH lol Geo showing a report of trans genders singing and dancing in support of Pakistan with their Guru.

 

[Strike Rate]

Full 20 overs match if the match start before 7:10 india time and 7:40 pak time

 

[MenInG]

Cmon guys - thank these low paid people for their hardwork so we can watch the game in the comfort of our homes

 

[Suleiman]

I don't trust Afridi to win the toss and make the right move. He wanted to bat first in a green top, remember?

Dhoni will put Pak in I think. He wants Pak pacers to bowl with dew and p much neutralize Amir.

 

[Deewana]

Bowl first plz Pakistan

Shoes will damage the pitch?

Pakistan need to bowl first.

It is still going to be a flat eden pitch. There is too much humidity in Kolkata for any swing

 

[Masterzz]

Must Bowl First!!!!!! Wet Condition Perfect for Pakistani bowlers to create more hype!

 

[Deewana]

In 3rd t20 vs SA [MENTION=43028]K[/MENTION]olkata in 2015..the rain stopped at time of toss but the ground staff weren't able to get the ground ready for game even though it didn't rain after the toss

Here the sheets were in early so no water seeped down That shouldn't be a problem unless it rains again

 

[super hitter]

Rain is spoiling the party

if rain would have not stopped, pakistan would have won? heard it somewhere.

 

[dauntless]

Pak should bat first and score at least 170 for having some chance

 

[jattafridi]

Dhoni will win the toss and bowl first

Humidity has nothing to do with swing scientists say

Do not think Waqar and Afridi have the courage for that. They'd be even happy to defend 140 and then blame the bowlers later on for not doing magic.

Come on

 

[Madplayer]

Kitne saal lagenge ab match start hone mai

 

[battler]

Looks like due to the incompetence of CAB we will have a shortened game, pathetic!

 

[Pakistani Pace]

Hypeee

 

[HitWicket]

There's got to be at least 15 mins between the toss and start time by the way. Overs will start to be lost if the game doesn't start in 35 mins so the toss but take place in the next 20 mins for a full game.

 

[WC-Passion]

Where is the game?

 

[Strike Rate]

Match to start at 8 PM pakistan time so i guess we will lose some overs? Because after 7:40 it was meant to lose 1 over after every 4 minutes.

 

[Markhor]

Working week over, TV on, BBC TMS on the background, sitting down for lunch and its India vs Pakistan at a packed Eden Gardens.

No better way to spend a Saturday afternoon.

 

[Square Drive]

Boooo

Cmon guys

I think CAB have the biggest budget in India and their budget is more than PCB so was expecting better from them.

 

[Strike Rate]

Ceremony is on now just saw Imran, Wasim and now Waqar.

 

[Pakistani Pace]

Imran khan!!!

 

[Strike Rate]

Looking great watching Imran & 2 Ws standing together there and now Gavaskar there too with them.

 

[Red Devil]

Imran, Wasim and Waqar!! Legends galore

 

[WC-Passion]

Can't we just get on with the toss?

 

[MenInG]

Come on rain, keep raining.

Dont spread rubbish news

 

[Strike!]

What's the point of these ridiculous awards? Get on with the match.

 

[Varun]

7.40pm While the covers are being removed, the chief minister of West Bengal Mamata Banerjee is honouring former Pakistan captain and politician Imran Khan on the field by draping a shawl around him. Wasim Akram is next. "Poor Allan Lamb. His 92 World Cup dismissal comes up on the big screen." says Karthik. And after Akram, is Waqar Younis and Sunil Gavaskar. And then Virender Sehwag and Sachin Tendulkar.

Nobody cares. Start the game NOW.

 

[WC-Passion]

What the hell is this rubbish?

I WANT TO WATCH THE GAME.

 

[Greenshadow]

Shouldn't this be done after the game, or not at all?

 

[Masterzz]

LOL! I hope they introduce our Pigeon too XD jkz jkz

 

[Strike Rate]

Gavaskar, Sachin & Sehwag but no Kapil or Dada?

 

[battler]

Why can't we have these ceremonies after the match? Sheer incompetence

 

[Ankit007]

We will lose overs if game do not get started in 32 mins from now

 

[Red Devil]

What the hell is this rubbish?

I WANT TO WATCH THE GAME.

Relax man, this is epic. It's only adding to the hype.

If the match is shortened then Ganguly needs to resign from CAB.
Din't expect this crap from him

 

[Strike Rate]

[Strike!]

Are they going to call on everyone. This is absolutely foolish.

 

[timeflies]

Omg, start the game already!! Pulling an all nighter for this game and now they're just making me stay up longer than I would have
