What's new

India vs Pakistan | Match 22, World Cup | Manchester | June 16, 2019 | India innings

Why is Sarfaraz not bringing back Amir for 2 overs? The only bowler who has looked like who could do something??

What stupid captaincy. Wahab might get a wicket, but that will be lucky. Amir would have been the calculated choice.

Amir is risk worth taking. Might take wicket, If not he will be couple over short towards the end. Sarfi is trying to save him for death.
 
Now Wahab being warned

Turning into a complete nightmare this game

Both bowlers on 2 warnings

Only pak would have this
 
On the bright side this makes things easier for us, although I can see us losing every game from now or only winning one.

We haven't played in 2 weeks and haven't had much time to adapt/gain momentum with wins against the big teams.
 
erasmus helping pakistan making wahab go around the wicket looooooooooooooooooooooooooolllllll
 
Out of all the matches Umpires just realized about danger zone now?

This is unnecessary pressure from them to make our bowlers out of focus
 
I think the only time would have been 2004 - 2007 when we had Arshad Khan, Danish Kaneria, Shahid Afridi & Shoaib Malik playing in ODIs

Arshad Khan was handy and deserved more chances TBH. Afridi had a good run between 2004-2013 with his fast legbreaks.

I'd take those two over this spin attack.
 
Poor from Rahul. He's indiàs imam ul haq. Should have carried out and accelerated, threw wicket after being set. Extremely poor
 
Have Pakistan had a WORSE spin attack than this ?

- Two over the hill seniors who are part time at best.

- A containing darter in Imad, who's never been a wickettaker in ODIs.

- Shadab who cannot bowl six deliveries in same spot, and gives one freebie per over.

Gohar and Asghar meanwhile sit on bench to accomodate pseudo ARs

Imran Khan here is spot on about playing these railu kattas.

Needed proper spinners here.

Rahul played a terrible Knock Indiana know it to looked a little better with six off Malik and hafeez only

That depends on the weather, you could easily have more trained off games.
 
I’d give Amir a two over spell from the other end, we need another one to compete.
 
First wicket. Need to bring Amir on and try to look for another wicket. Sarfraz might do the opposite though
 
It’s fast bowlers that take wickets against India. Pakistan’s decision to play 2 full time spinners and two part timers should really be scrutinized. Mickey Arthur was talking about planning strategically ahead of the match; team selection and decision to bat first are criminal.
 
I apologize for blaming the umpires they have been a godsend actually.

If not for them we wouldnt have this wicket by going round the wicket. I suggest Amir to do the same lmao.

Yup, which means we never really had a pathetic spin attack, ever.

Rehman was a handy operator as well.

But I think -

Ajmal
Hafeez
Afridi

Was our best trio
 
Good wicket to lose for India. Kohli will score at a better rate than Rahul.

Rahul did well though.

Bad mismatch these two sides, it's a shame the NZ/India match went ahead and this one was rained off.
 
This is the opening have to bowl the next 6 overs well put pressure in india and bring the run rate down - wicket is 320 plus and if we add pressure india will give chances
 
This is it, boys. Break this partnership and the Indians will squeal. I really hope the team is on their toes now. Cannot blame nerves for their screw ups anymore.
 
Pakistan can still get back in this, just need to get Kohli early.

Middle order is rubbish.
