Pakistan vs India | Asia Cup, 5th Match | Dhaka | 18/3/12 | Pakistan Innings

[Watsupdoc]

Jamshed seems to be struggling against the short ball... But this has been a good start

 

[CalculatedRisk]

this has a feel of a 90's match when we actually dominated with the bat

 

[imshally81]

 

[KingKhanWC]

 

[90MPH]

Great start for Pakistan.

No excuses whatsoever to target beyond 300.

 

[12cavalry]

Nasir looks solid. Doesn't has any major technical flaw.

 

[pakistani lion]

i hate this pathan

 

[NJamal]

down the leg side

 

[dhump]

Good short ball, but luckily for Jamshed it went to no-mans land.

Both should aim for centuries here.

Indeed 50 is not enough so they just should keep on going for about same pace for next 10 to 15 overs 5 or 6 an over is absolute perfect.

 

[uzy99]

Jamshed needs to refocus here. Do not lose it now!

 

[Maher96]

Only the pakistani batsmen themselves can get them out.

 

[khalil1986]

Need minimum 300

 

[ads101]

Not sure Irfan has got better or not again. There are glimpses, dunno whether he'll hit top form or not.

 

[chuck]

Flat pitch or not, still great effort to get the team in good position. Need to guard against complacency.

 

[pakistani lion]

Dinda really has a very punchable face.

lol true so do most of the indian team members, especially raina and kohli

 

[IAJ]

How many times have good shots gone straight to the fielders. Pakistan could easily have been 125-0 here

 

[Maher96]

8 bowlers already used.

 

[praveen]

My My the trundlers we have.. can somebody tell me why Vinay is not playing?

 

[James]

Dear oh dear India

 

[khalil1986]

Not sure Irfan has got better or not again. There are glimpses, dunno whether he'll hit top form or not.

He has lost the zip there is no venom at all.

 

[imshally81]

7 bowlers used by india in 17 overs.... is this world record ???????????????

 

[farazaidi]

Vinay is injured

 

[LegCutter]

This pitch is a pancake, I am afraid we need atleast 320 on this pitch and even then all bets are off

 

[Sandeep]

one wicket and we'll be back...need to hold spirits...this is where we miss kumble the most!

 

[violet_may]

Some very nicely timed shots in there though, I must say :jamshed

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan should start the accelerator after 30 th over.

 

[IAJ]

There is nothing for the bowlers in this wicket. It's all up to our batsmen here.

 

[imshally81]

:44

 

[violet_may]

I think looking at the pitch, 340 is what we should go for!

 

[cricketpassion]

 

[uzy99]

Initially when the ball was swinging around, I thought we had made a mistake by batting first. Don't feel the same anymore. Good decision to bat first.

 

[KingKhanWC]

On the legs, helped on it's way to the rope.

[ads101]

My My the trundlers we have.. can somebody tell me why Vinay is not playing?

should have gone with munaf patel. No idea how he did it, but somehow he was taking wickets at a good average in 2010/11.

[LegCutter]

Irfan Pathan is a shadow of his former self

 

[Zane]

I love minnow bashing XD

 

[praveen]

Think we should try all eleven.

Kohli can bowl, so can sachin. Seen MS bowl. C'mon gambhir.

 

[DOOSRA95]

India getting some licking

 

[Justcrazy]

looking angry

 

[violet_may]

I would want to bat against them right now, so I can look world class

 

[Maher96]

How long till Dhoni loses his patience. Indian team looks dejected at this stage.

Naqli Pathan is on 39*

 

[imshally81]

7 bowlers used by india in 17 overs.... is this world record ???????????????

and all wicketless as well ??

 

[NJamal]

119/0 after 19 overs

 

[Iffitheking]

I am sad for Irfan Pathaan.... seems like it is going to be end of his career... last match for Irfan Pathan...

 

[Munna]

And professor proves us wrong just when we ask for his exclusion.. #theawkwardmoment

 

[CalculatedRisk]

PPers were right. Hafeez is a basher of minor bowlers

 

[MR__KHAN__JI]

Good start

 

[James]

Pakistan need 350, this pitch is a joke

 

[Maher96]

Ashwin back on.

 

[NJamal]

Ashwin back

 

[chuck]

that's what the coach brings - a fearless attitude to batting. Yes, a flat pitch, but the attitude is refreshing.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Maybe score 400? mmad

Once the ball gets old, it will grip, spin, reverse and be harder to get away. It's a good track but a little slow. The problem is India's bolwers and Pakistan's confidence makes things look a little different than reality.

300 should be plenty.

 

[Mcgrath]

Excellent batting by Pakistan and the usual rubbish served up by the Indian bowlers.. Irfan pathan is seriously poor

 

[yadunoe]

hafeez is my new fav player

 

[deviously~fading~away]

There is nothing for the bowlers in this wicket. It's all up to our batsmen here.

Wait till bowl

 

[praveen]

should have gone with munaf patel. No idea how he did it, but somehow he was taking wickets at a good average in 2010/11.

Munaf has a deceptive speed. He is never in the fray nowadays.Towards the future you see..
