This match isn't being played in the UAE. Pakistan defeated South Africa in this same country 2 weeks ago, whereas India are getting destroyed.

the only reason a 2-1 ODI victory over SA is being given so much importance is because Pakistan had never beaten SA in a bilateral ever before. Pakistan and SA have played each other 14 times this year and SA lead 9-5. True we are getting destroyed currently but we haven't been playing them as often as you have.
 
Doesn't seem like Philander-wicket this, don't know why the commies keep saying this Pitch will suit his style of bowling. He is hardly getting any Bounce With that pace.

Just accept it, dude, India has been overrated team, Why Indian supporters are in paranoia that Indian Cricket team is the best... even when they are playing worst cricket

Just woke up. How are the mighty Indian batsmen doing? Have Dhawan and Nohit both scored breezy front foot hundreds yet?

Oh man, this is some epic trolling


The funny thing is everyone in world cricket say this coming except the indian fans who are blinded by over hyping the media gives these players.


Kohli opening the face of the bat with 2 slips is one of the strangest ways to get dismissed when you are under pressure. quiet obvious he didn't want it with Steyn and co

It has nothing to do with the UAE ; Asian teams struggle IN South Africa, check India's record there, a W/L ratio of 0.20.
So Pakistan's 2-3 in SA's favour early this year and it's 2-1 series win lately are achievements you might try to hide behind a feeble rhetoric as much as you want but which stand out, considering that India has won 5 ODIs since 1992 whereas Pakistan won 4 in one year.

It has nothing to do with the UAE unless India is playing in Dubai, Abu Dhabi or Sharjah right now.

When did I say we haven't struggled here or aren't struggling here? I'm just pointing out that while our batting is overrated - it is no way near as bad as it is being made out to be. They are being called FTB's and what not. to put it into perspective Pakistan's batting could not win an ODi seriies in UAE against SA. The reason you guys were competitive was because of your exceptional bowlers- Ajmal,Hafeez,Junaid,Irfan,Bilawal etc. Our batting lineup cannot chase 360 + scores consistently even in India let alone in these conditions and against this quality of bowling. Suffice to say that no batting lineup currently can do as well as ours if they had our atrocious bowling lineup.
 
Nice slap on the face of BCCI for not being in favour of DRS after necklace gate
 
Batting powwaaar house hasn't scored more than 5 runs in any of the 15 overs bowled.. lol

so your point is .. we should stop bashing Indian batting even when they are batting so badly?

Now, instead of trying to defend them .. join us in the bashing .. as Indian batting is over-rated. Had it not been over-rated they wouldn't have been 53/4 .. on same track Saffers were 194 before losing a wicket ..

This comment is a good reply to your excuse

We have played SA only twice earlier this year - the previous match and in the Champions Trophy. Pakistan have played a lot of cricket against SA both in UAE and in SA. And while you have done well it was primarily because of your bowling.
 
Heard earlier that India have to be 140/4 after 20 overs, well they need only 82 runs from NeXT 4 overs:msd

I haven't made any excuses and i have no idea why you would quote some random comment from cricinfo.
 
Not like Rahane would have gone onto win this game for India but DRS would be handy
 
We are paying tribute to madiba by allowing them to win this meaningless Odi series. :kapil

Still, we won 4 matches IN South Africa (forget the UAE lol) in one year. It's EXTRAORDINARY from SC teams perspective, THAT's the point.

And our first match was won by Bhatti/Anwar partnership, see here

Whereas the second ODI was won by Ahmed Shehzad's hundred mainly (even if Junaid Khan's last over is a competition, but he got MoM.)

let me s-p-e-l-l it out for you

you keep on bringing the excuse that India have played less against SA this year when compared with Pk vs SA.

The comment on cricinfo is for Indians like you who make all kind of funny excuses. In the first place, Pakistan wouldn't have had the 3-odi series that recently concluded IF BCCI didn't bully SA and reduce the tour ..

Clear enough?

best team? I never claimed India to be the best team. Stop putting words in my mouth.
 
Okay i have'nt predicted what score india's innings will come to an end. I see them rolled up between 180- 230 approx.

bad luck mate. dhawan n sharma got out on good shots..rahana was not out. biased umpiring
Click to expand...

Lols, only Rahane was unlucky. And these decisions you see often, even Miller was unlucky so that is even stevens.

Dhawan thought he was still in India and was slashing at a good ball.

Rohit didn't time the ball properly, but he should have known SA had a fielder there for that shot.

Btw de kock also played a "good" shot but got out.

bhai . this guy .. has a bad 'sadmaa' thanks to the Indian batting performance .. just ignore him ... logic has no place for him. When faced with facts he will deny everything :)
 
My prediction is that really Indian humiliation will be during Test matches .. this ODI series is a just a trailer of things to come
 
Consolation for India: If India is flat track bullies then South Africa is Green track bullies

Like I said credit to your team and yes Shehzad did perform well in the 2nd ODI. The first ODI was won by Anwar/Bilawal swinging merrily after your top order had failed. Besides what big run chases did Pakistan face throughout the year either in SA or in UAE? There was never any scoreboard pressure on the batsmen thanks to some fantastic bowling. Our batting on the other hand is expected to chase 360 in the very 1st ODI in hostile conditions against one of the best attacks. Unusually harsh. Pakistan may have been a better team here. But to say that's because of your batsmen is a rubbish claim!
