India vs Pakistan | 5th match | Asia Cup | Dubai | Sep 19, 2018 | Pakistan Innings

[Titan24]

Hello the smart minds of PP.

Quick help needed, someone please give me a good reliable excuse so I can leave office and go home and watch this match.

(I need to go missing from the office like some posters who go missing from threads that don't support their preferable agenda)

Bro I would say save the excuse for leave for the next round or the final hopefully. Result of this match doesnt make any difference obviously other than pride and stuff

Big test for Imam. He’s had a easy run so far in the side, let’s see what he’s really all about.

 

[Rinnegan Sasuke]

Guys let's not be over confident. We should gloat after we win, har gaye toh sunni pare gi.

 

[cricketindiafan]

Anyways, have to support the chosen players. Need a good start, will be nice to get Fakar early, hopefully no no-ball this time

 

[Canford Cliffs]

Look at that top 6, not one is under 30.
Rohit -31
Dhawan - 32
Rayudu - 32
DK - 34
Dhoni - 37
Jadhav - 34

Bowling line up is relatively younger.
Pandya - 24
Bhuvi-28
Bumrah - 24
Chahal- 26
Kuldeep - 28

Daddy's army

Close the tele...like most Indian fans have already. This is nonsense. Not playing Rahul is beyond belief

Where is the fun in that

 

[Slim]

Close the tele...like most Indian fans have already. This is nonsense. Not playing Rahul is beyond belief

What would have Rahul done with his 9.3 average? He is a trash ODI player.

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

wheres Imran Khan?

 

[GoUgandaCranes]

You forgot to turn off the iron and it's a fire hazard as no one is home.

Stove was left on and no one else is home.

Going to my boss.

Wish me luck.

 

[Humza_Razzaque]

Is it just me or Babar looks the fittest amongst all of them

 

[battler]

Shastri and Rohit are so dumb, I don't know whether to laugh or cry

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

You are a fool if you believe that buddy.

go and read yesterday debate on HK match thread, 97.6% indians doesnt care for asia cup.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

wheres Imran Khan?

In Saudi Arabia.

 

[DRsohail]

[MENTION=79064]MMHS[/MENTION] and we are playing with one spinner I mean we are going with just one spinner again I will say one spinner.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Need 260 minimum. With our depth we should aim for 300.

 

[Rayyman]

270+ and we are good. Hope Babar gets a big score.

 

[Slim]

go and read yesterday debate on HK match thread, 97.6% indians doesnt care for asia cup.

The indian fans on here are fake posturing. There is a world outside Pakpassion as well.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

National Anthems are done, now time for some cricket action.

 

[mak36]

[MENTION=79064]MMHS[/MENTION] and we are playing with one spinner I mean we are going with just one spinner again I will say one spinner.

Please clarify, how many spinners?

 

[battler]

What would have Rahul done with his 9.3 average? He is a trash ODI player.

India are effectively playing a second string side with the absence of kohli and now kl

 

[RobinJay]

It would be quite embarrassing if we lose after all this talk...

 

[B_Positive]

Pakistaaaaaaan

 

[Sarfarazian92]

Home match for india

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Everything says we should win but that's when we normally lose.....

 

[B_Positive]

It would be quite embarrassing if we lose after all this talk...

Be positive mate. We got these oldies

 

[Slim]

India are effectively playing a second string side with the absence of kohli and now kl

HAHAHAHAHA You guys are amazing. :')

 

[mak36]

Fascinated to see how Imam does.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Close the tele...like most Indian fans have already. This is nonsense. Not playing Rahul is beyond belief

Goodbye. Have a nice day.

 

[Asif321]

Stadium still not full

 

[B_Positive]

Everything says we should win but that's when we normally lose.....

Its gonna be a CT final repeat mate. Believe that...

 

[Mueez]

Go on Fauji and Bhanjaaaa!

 

[ravisurya]

Pakistans game to lose this one.

 

[B_Positive]

India are effectively playing a second string side with the absence of kohli and now kl

He He He So you are surrendering without even the game getting started

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Imam to take strike. Bhuvi opens the bowling

 

[Sirris]

Let's go.

 

[ExplicitAI]

I don't really like this commentator

 

[mak36]

1.2 million viewers on Hotstar and counting...

 

[aukhan]

Go on Fauji and Bhanjaaaa!

isn't he bhatija?

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Pakistan are off the mark with a quick double

 

[Mueez]

isn't he bhatija?

Oh my bad!

 

[cricketindiafan]

Bhuvi averages 50+ in last 12 months, just can't pick wickets. But is the favorite of the team management for his 'control'

 

[RamLakhan]

Rahul should not play in middle order. If he has to play in LOIs, it has to be opening! Thats a good thing, though the team looks rubbish! Pant is one of the guy who should be preferred in our LOI setup more than Rahul... But what a stupid lineup (Rayudu, Dhoni, Karthik, Jadhav.... They think its like playing for CSK in IPL)

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

1.2 million viewers on Hotstar and counting...

Some fans have switched off their TV and watching it on Hotstar to bring down the TV ratings.

 

[Slim]

Imam with his signature block thon.

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

In Saudi Arabia.

wasnt he meant to be here for the match?

 

[mak36]

1.5m now

 

[Arham_PakFan]

First over done.

Fakhar will be on strike against Bumrah in the next over... Tasty.

 

[ExplicitAI]

Hope Imam don't ruin our RR

 

[Arham_PakFan]

wasnt he meant to be here for the match?

There were rumors but nothing confirmed.

 

[B_Positive]

I hope Fakhar stays there for long. I dont mind him taking some balls to settle

 

[Abdulm123]

Imam with his misbah impression

 

[aukhan]

Imam blocker

 

[cricketindiafan]

1.5m now

Benchmark is 5-6m during IPL. Think it will go upto 3-3.5m for this match

 

[PerfectionPersonified]

Good Bowling so far

 

[PerfectionPersonified]

Fakhar the KEY

 

[ExpressPacer]

Fakhar looking under pressure. Played a maiden

 

[mak36]

Benchmark is 5-6m during IPL. Think it will go upto 3-3.5m for this match

More people watched 2016 Asia Cup than IPL.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Maiden over for Bumrah to start with.

 

[ExplicitAI]

A maiden what on earth is this

 

[Blackbradman]

Maiden..

 

[B_Positive]

Maiden over for Bumrah to start with.

I think Its ok as long as Fakhar stays

 

[Slim]

So much pressure. My bp has risen.

 

[PerfectionPersonified]

India seem to have a Plan

 

[cricketindiafan]

Bumrah's no ball in the CT final was the game turning moment. No such blunders this time please.

 

[TalhaSyed]

Bowlers have started well - need our batsmen - particularly Fakhar - not to lose their cool here.

Need to pick up single and doubles & dispatch the bad ball for 4. Batting will get harder through the day with the pitch slowing down and lights coming into play.

 

[ExpressPacer]

Imam gone.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Imam idiot.

 

[Slim]

Imam out. India with first blood.

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

imam gone edge and taken by wk

 

[Blackbradman]

First strike

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Good bowing

 

[B_Positive]

Imam what have you done....

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Imam

....so much for Iman keeping his cool.

Silly shot. Showing his immaturity and inability to handle pressure.

 

[mak36]

Pathetic from Imam. Looks like he doesn't have his uncle's clutch gene.

 

[ExplicitAI]

 

[PerfectionPersonified]

Come on lads --need some boundaries
