Pakistan have gone in with an unchanged side while West Indies have made one change: Anthony Martin, the leggie, replaces Andre Russell.
 
Ten sports not interested in showing the toss on time ... cricinfo is not interested to give proper coverage to international match ... whats goin on :p
 
So, the game has not even started yet. Anyone against fielding 1st?
 
Not sure why Afridi chose to bowl since the spinners would be just as or more effective defending on the same used slow pitch. Windies have made the right change and bought in another spinner, I doubt the chase will be easy as the previous game.
 
Shahid Afridi has won the toss and chose to bowl. Even in the last game, at the post-match ceremony, Afridi said he was actually happy that Sammy chose to bat!

Match going to be boring again.:razzaqzzzzZZ

atleast he is showing some confidence in our batting ...which was not there in the world cup ..

and yeah chasing will not be easy ... with another leg spinner in the side ... but depends how much they score
 
Windies will come out harder today knowing they will need a score of at least 260+.

Afridi on the field with his purple cap, leading wicket taker in the IPL. :afridi

Ermm wrong. Showing confidence in your batting is letting them bat first and put a big total on the board i.e how India play. Bowling first is a defensive ploy unless your playing on a seaming track as your relying on your bowlers to constrict as you have no confidence in your batting lineup.
 
Can't help but think that bowling first is a pretty defensive course of action.
 
Hafeez to open the bowling as well today. The management are doing what I wanted them to do.


Maybe I'm Afridi but I don't know it :afridi
 
I was posting in the preview thread and was wondering why no one was talking. :yk

we have been low on our batting and we opted to chase .. why ? because we dont have confidence on them

we are bad in chasing thats why in past we opted to bat first all the time

Correct your knowledge sir
 
The ball is coming in a long way for Junaid. If he can get one to move away as well.
 
Jugnu also looks the type who'll sledge once he gets established in the team.
 
6 runs of the over. Junaid is bowling well.
