[mosh101]

Malik and lala 4 overs each then?

 

[taqi]

This is not the kind of pitch even India wanted

[London_Lahori]

Even Nehra and Bumrah's slower balls are causing us problems

 

[Sherazkhalid]

Damn this pitch is one to remember for ages. May be we needed a bad pitch to break the streak, who knows.

 

[yasir]

This is ridiculous, and people say ICC is incharge of wickets? [emoji84][emoji84][emoji84][emoji84]

Play a spinner or play nehra to get Afridi out now?

 

[shaaik]

It's turning square ..

I m feeling sad

 

[OneTip-OneHand]

Not bad for Pakistan...If they can score another 70-80 in last 8 overs, match going to be interesting

 

[JilaWatan]

Both the openers have screwed us and got out.

Couldn't get any worse.

Yeah worse could have been 3/2.. Be glad we have something to build on.

 

[adarsh_bang]

Jaddu is strangling them here.

 

[IcedCoffee]

People seem to be fine with Green Mambas...Why si much whinning about Rank turners..

Such a hypocrysi!!!

By the way India lost their last match on the same kind of pitch

*facepalm* Again with this argument. Green pitches ease up as was evident in the Asia cup. These ones get worse. That alone is good enough reason why this is worse.

 

[AlphaFighter]

Imad doesn't turn the ball much compared to Nawaz.

What a pathetic pitch.

 

[Sherazkhalid]

That ball should have been dispatched. Won't get many like that.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Umar Akmal got his wish, and has been promoted today

 

[Abdul]

Not bad for Pakistan...If they can score another 70-80 in last 8 overs, match going to be interesting

Which is not going to happen.

 

[dauntless]

Umar to lose his wicket

Except Pakistan can't take advantage soooooo

 

[jusarrived]

I think, MS took the right decision - there is rain & dew around. He picked 3 spinners & is bowling with them early in the innings. Besides, MSD had more cricket intelligence in his diaper days than entire PAK cricket set-up - he must have noticed PAK's bowling picks - batting 1st would have brought 4 pacers into the game. I am not saying IND has won it already, but hardly one can find flaws in MS's strategy.

There are millions in India who do every ball

 

[asyed]

It's all curtains for us. Spinners spinning the ball miles and we we've playing with 4 pacers.

Pacers must must have to bowl more slow balls (maybe 3 in an over).

 

[adarsh_bang]

Freedi's nervousness showing in his running between the wickets.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Yeah worse could have been 3/2.. Be glad we have something to build on.

Its as worse as 3/2

 

[sada90]

last chance for akmal. to shine

 

[m.shah]

Should have send malik.. Umar is pretty mediocre against spin.

 

[DW44]

This is like a game of Dota where you're thoroughly outdrafted so half the game is over before it even started.

T20s pitches should always be flat

 

[Sherazkhalid]

Damn Jadeja bowling better than warne.

 

[London_Lahori]

If only our spin attack was like the 2012 one.

Ajmal/Raza/Afridi and Hafeez

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

Good mental exercise for Pakistan for next 2 games.

 

[Centurion]

Pak somehow need to get to 130, Afridi and Malik will be unplayable on this turner

 

[Gayle_Force]

Wrong decision for sure. But to be fair no one predicted the pitch would've turned like this. This is a disgrace of a pitch.

If Pakistan lose this I wouldn't really blame them to be honest.

 

[cricfan14]

Pakistan is so depressing to watch

 

[adarsh_bang]

Afridi will try to score a boundary here. Big hit or wicket coming up

 

[JibranAnsari]

Actually for a change the openers played well actually.

Yah for a test match.

 

[MMHS]

i agree,u have to ask was this done intentionally?

Don't know - but in that case you have to question the existence of PAK as a Nation (if some people in key position deliberately damages own team for Indian interest). Probably not - had it been other Coach/Captain, I might have given a 2nd thought - by my expectation of WY & Afridi is not higher than this.

 

[The_KING]

Misbah would have been perfect on this pitch

 

[Abdul]

Expect Shahid Afridi to throw his wicket away.

 

[Lords]

Stupid pitch. BCCI should ban eden for this.

 

[JilaWatan]

Its as worse as 3/2

OK bhai ap ro lo

 

[Sherazkhalid]

Jadeja is simply unplayable.

 

[Sandeep]

Pakistan has batted beautifully here. Just need to get 45-50 more for a winning score.

 

[Asif321]

akmal is not good vs spin and they promoted him

 

[Markhor]

Hope to god we can make at least 100.

 

[WC-Passion]

Umar on this pitch is scary to watch.

 

[dauntless]

Feeling heat here

 

[adarsh_bang]

Pak somehow need to get to 130, Afridi and Malik will be unplayable on this turner

I feel that too. But i fancy our chances thanks to the calm head of Kohli and Dhoni. Won't have scoreboard pressure in a low scoring game hopefully.

 

[BDwarriors]

Its a shame the way openers bstted

 

[Jabo]

I think we'll make around 105

With our bowlers we needed 150

Not good

 

[pasha404]

we are going no where

 

[Sherazkhalid]

Two more overs from Ashwin and Jadeja, need to play those two and we can go after others.

 

[Juansar_07]

Sharjeel Wicket - Raina.Brilliant catch by Pandya.

Spoiler

 

[ViciousMachine]

I will take 105 from here. That means 51 runs from last 8 overs, I do not see that happening easy.

 

[adarsh_bang]

Pandya!! What the hell... Why?????? Bowl spinners!

 

[CalculatedRisk]

Pakistan failing to even make a match out of it.

 

[Pakistani Pace]

C'mon we need to hit

 

[OneTip-OneHand]

*facepalm* Again with this argument. Green pitches ease up as was evident in the Asia cup. These ones get worse. That alone is good enough reason why this is worse.

While playing professional cricket you should be ready for any condition...

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Hardik Pandya?????

REALLY?

Why not Yuvi?

 

[MMHS]

There are millions in India who do every ball

They 'll smell the coffee once he is retired.

 

[Barragan]

Brilliant shot by Akmal

 

[#GreenRoars]

by Umar, shabash need more yaar.

 

[desi_launda]

Akmal

 

[dauntless]

What a shot

 

[London_Lahori]

This is so tough, we're going to lose and can't blame the players today, can only blame the management

 

[Markhor]

That's better. Really need to make most of this Pandya over.

 

[Ankit007]

Why is Pandya bowling and not yuvi??

 

[Pakistani Pace]

 

[adarsh_bang]

This is why i didn;t want Pandya to bowl dammit. Why Dhoni why? When will you develop a killer instinct??

 

[Sherazkhalid]

This what will happen to our seamers, nothing for them in this pitch.

 

[ViciousMachine]

Umar Akmal !!! What a shot! 4!!! C'mon Umar and Afridi, we need a blitz from you two right here!!!

 

[pasha404]

target pacers now

 

[WC-Passion]

Pakistan has batted beautifully here. Just need to get 45-50 more for a winning score.

Very funny.

 

[OneTip-OneHand]

What the hell is wrong with Dhoni...Why bowl Pandya while you still have spinning options

 

[sjahmed23]

We lost the game when we lost the toss... Afridi's facial expression said it all...

 

[Thivagar]

Not when he's retired

Not when you can invite a time machine

 

[castortroy]

That's what wahab will bowl

Short stuff

 

[timeflies]

Shot of the day by Junior.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Pakistan has batted beautifully here. Just need to get 45-50 more for a winning score.

This time we will bat like a test match.

But still....100 is no cakewalk here.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Dont know why Dhoni gave over to pacer.

 

[dauntless]

Good single
