Whats this??? The Indian bowlers have won the team a match?! God what his world come to....it's like saying the Pakistani team's strength is not in their bowling but in their batting...o w8 thats true too

you people are underestimating the Indian bowlers. Zaheer is an outstanding bowler, Munaf generally bowls a very good line and length and on the sub-continent pitches, there will probably be some support for the spinners and Bhajji and Chawla (there are also Yusuf Pathan, Yuvraj) are quite good. So our bowling is not as bad as its made out to be.
 
Well done India. Their spinners are pretty underrated really.

I'm still in shock from Australia's collapse from 118 to 1. Can't believe it's Australia who've done that too. Definitely the mental strength associated with Australia in the past is being lost.

Munaf was getting sprayed around everywhere by Watson and I'm suprised you havn't mentioned Nehra. I don't think we should aswell.

The only strength is the spin bowling, since you have like 6 of them.

I've not named Nehra because he's the one who generally gets spanked in every match.
 
Wow What the hell happened to Australia :))) If they suck against Indian spin imagine what Ajmal, Lala and Hafeez will do to them :))) Hey CHAPPAL, you still think Pakistan has no chance? :)))

No but we remember what Hussey did to Ajmal. :yk

So Hafeez is a spinner now.. is he ?

If lala is the best spinner in Pakistan and Australia will hammer them good and proper. Australia even used beat Sri lanka regularly even with murali in their team.

Even with this "3rd" class attack at least India wins matches unlike some other countries. India is ranked number 1 in the world and ranked 2 in ODIs. If India can hammer Australia like this, I shudder to think what they will do to minnows.

Hussey is not playing in this WC.

+ Hafeez is actaully a good bits and pieces spinner, just like your Yuvraj/Raina/Pathan and possibly even Chawla.

Come back and gloat of your number 2 ranking when you win a series outside of India for once.
 
Australia are new South Africa. They seem to choke a lot. Especially against India. They lost that test match against India when Laxman won it in company of Ishant Sharma.

But they lift their game up when they play pakistan. Like that world cup match when Hussey anhiliated Ajmal and his mates.
 
Won in Australia last time we visited. Does that count?

Yes. And we hammered new zealand properly last time we visited New zealand.. Unlike like margin of 3-2 or something. LOL..

India is not Number 1 (tests) and number 2 (ODIS) for nothing.

Even mighty ausies choke against India.
 
Number 1 team.. Ranked number 2 only on ODIS..

It looks like you have come to comment without doing your homework. Check stats.. :asif

why are you arguing with him.... he already has got high BP bcoz of india's performance today..... :P :P
arguing with you might give him a stroke :))) :)))
trust me you dnt want to cause that to someone.....
 
I was talking about ODI's.

yes. still check your stats. India won against australia in australia. This was when Gilchrist,hayden, Symonds were also around. They also had Lee, Johnson too. Some guy called tendulkar hammered Ausies properly in 2 finals. Also "express" slowness of Praveen Kumar blew them away. They just couldn't cope with his subtle variations.. Good job he is injured otherwise Australia would have been bundled for less then 100.
Here.. this should help you..

If I remember rightly last time pakistan visited australia they lost every single match. Even possibly against first class teams.. I think its reflected in Pakistan's current test and ODI rankings.

Actually you are the guys that are high over this win. You should be treating it as something the team needs to work on, like how to bat and the phaast bowling.
 
Well when you have a 11 man team full of spinners then what can you expect?
But what happens when the pacers come on, oh wait they don't because they continuously get tonked.

Aren't you supposed to pick an XI depending on the opposition and conditions as well as being in form. Someone get this guy a box of tissues

Read my last post about phasst bowling.. LOL..

Australia's phhassst bowlers weren't able to win it for them on fast bouncy australian pitches. But india had super slow trio of Irfan pathan, Sri santh and Praveen kumar. :asif:amir:butt
 
Forget about Australia performance, they probably haven`t played there for sometime, but how come great team India who has barely played outside for last 5-6 years only managed 230 runs? :)

Decent win but I would be disappointed if I was an Indian fan, since that team is bragged so much about batting powerhouse.

No actully some you are are jealous and upset with sight of Australia getting hammered by their old nemesis. Good job Tendulkar and Zaheer weren't playing today. India didn't want to deflate Australia's confidence too much. India still wanted them to boss around minnows on their group.
India and the umpires gave them enough chances today but they are always low on confidence when they play against India.

Thats what happens if you keep losing games to one particular opponent. Thats why it would be very difficult for pakistan to compete against australia.

Keep on trolling, your acting as if India has won the world cup.
+ the batting was shoddy.

Australia are number 1 team in the world and they only managed 179 odd and that too agaisn't "3rd" class Indian attack. So in the hindsight Indian batsmen did very well against super phhhassstt australian attack.

Hmmmm. Not sure if Indians are getting high on this warm up match win or you are going too low after India won this warm up match.

Cool down. Everyone knows it was a warm up match, except you I guess.
 
great respect for the win - good to see they never gave up after the disastrous start - that's what makes champions, maybe world champions????

Refer to your sig ;)
 
What a game. Australia were cruising at 118/1 and then collapsed to 170+ all out. Congrats to India.
 
A long way for us to go, still a good game and well played boys :)

50,000 spectators for a warm up match which is unofficial and will see 12 players from either side (11 batting, 11 bowling)!

Reminds me of the India-Pakistan warm up match before the 2009 WC, the stadium was jam packed and the intensity was as good as an int'l match.

Pakistan lost that warm up game, then went on to win the cup. Will it happen to Australia this time?
 
Hussey is not playing in this WC.

Pathan says Hello

I so want India to face Pakistan in knock out stages, so out batsmen can have some fun with your A GRAAAAAADe bowlers :razzaq

His feelings are huuuuuuurtttt :6:
 
Reading some of the replies (Indian & Pakistani), I foresee many, many bumps in the future :))
 
Kreja goes..
Lets hope..INDIA doesn't get carried away by this win..
Common INDIA take the last wicket..

There is nothing to get carried away about - the batting order was exposed, playing very poor shots. Yuvraj should be immediately removed from the team and never considered again, disgusting player. The "pace" bowling attack is completely toothless, Kumble was faster than the current crop of "pacers".

The only silver lining was that Ravichandran Ashwin demonstrated that good technique leads to good performances, and that the spinners showed some jaan. Apart from that India look well on their way to being totally degraded due to the 20-20 cricket influence producing naqli players. The only reason they are winning is because every other team has also been negatively affected by 20-20.

The last remaining proper cricket team looks to be South Africa.

Dispose of yourself instead of yuvi.
Call SA a proper cricket team cos they beat some minnow yesterday. They struggled against our B team on their home turf.
And if you didn't know we're the number 1 side in PROPER CRICKET

The Indian test cricket side is solid precisely because they pick batting geniuses like VVS Laxman instead of bits-and-pieces players. Chapdus like Yuvraj should not be in any form of international cricket.

South Africa is the best team in the world because they have the fundamentals right - solid batting lineup, excellent pace battery, and they focus on technique. If they win this world cup, their confidence will get a boost and they will dominate world cricket for the next 4-5 years.
