What's new

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

At least Imad is taking some form into the next game.

Always easy to bat when it's a foregone conclusion, it's a practice session basically.

I expect we'll see some better performances in the remaining dead rubbers as the pressure is off now.
 
Why is Ramiz talking as if world cup is over. Suddenly talk about first class structure and all those craps. They could have very well talked about it after WI loss. Pakistan keeps thinking this is the most important match of the world cup.
 
What a waste of time Pak middle-order proved to be! I was supposed to clean my flat, but then passed out drunk, missed India's innings and Pak innings just bored me to death. No more wasting time on this stupid sport. Back to my true love - ladies wrestling. Good bye, all.
 
so the streak continues ...a bit strange , Pakistan chose to field first.... Well played India ... over to 2023 ....
 
Pakistan apparently had tremendous fast bowlers in the 90's in domestic cricket who never ever got considered because Wasim and Waqar were just too good. How times have changed

well pak still has bowlers in recent past who did not get the opportunities they deserved. everyone knows the case of sadaf hussain, synonymous with fawad alam non-selection.

mir hamza, who got one test last year, is supposed to be as good as starc. he has very impressive stats, but barely gets an opportunity. but the future is not bleak for pakistan. husnain is definitely a prospect for future as well as mohmmd musa and naseem shah.

regarding the batting, kushdil shah is a power hitter with a good average, rizwan is not too shabby. It only depends on whether the selectors use common sense or not.
 
Rameez talking about new young players. I mean what it will take for the retired cricketers community to call out the useless senior players

Our tourney is over.
This match has absolutely smashed our NRR to smithreens and if by any miracle we win all 4 of the next games (NOT HAPPENING) we will still not qualify.

Oh man might be a close game if we play 50 overs from here.

That would require Pakistan batsmen to score at 12.4 per over. The top order batsmen scored at 5.3 for 40 overs. You really think the lower order would make it a close game scoring near 12 an over?
 
Its funny to think india won without thier recent top wickettakers (bumrah,bhuvi,chahal) unable to pick even single wicket, some wonderful stuff
 
In the hours preceding the much-anticipated World Cup match with India in Manchester today, Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan advised cricket team captain Sarfaraz Ahmed to bat first if he wins the toss. Being a former star cricketer who had led Pakistan to their only win in the tournament nearly three decades ago, he felt that the team would fare better if they were setting a target instead of chasing one.
Sarfaraz Ahmed, however, had different ideas. He won the toss alright, but opted to bowl.

The rain messed everything up.

No way Sarfraz would have bowled first on a normal day. Not saying Pak would have beaten IND but Pak would have batted first for sure.
 
Pakistan was easily scoring in excess of 300 in England series but hafeez and malik in since then everything changed
 
True, but it even worsens our NRR.

302 in 40 overs while the opposition scored 336 in 50 is not realistic.

I thought they had reformed the DLS method!

It is realastic when you consider from position india was and had they knew match was 40 overs they had started accelarstion from 35th over ,so its really about how you see it.

Btw that 302 score is coz pak lost wickets,while india didnt ,had pak been 1/2 down score would have been unfer 240 or even 200 so its ur own fault
 
Babar and Fakhar were giving us false hope. This game was over after KL and Rohit got off to a flyer.
