Going by some of the comments made by Pakistani players after India's loss to England, it looks like they are overconfident and too sure of giving India a thrashing. That is not good. Never underestimate an opponent. India is generally much better with the white ball than they are with the red one.
Although it would be good if someone gives Shastri and co a reality check in the Asia cup.

Middle order is good enough to score over 250 in Flat pattas in UAE( all our TTFs including Rayudu are good against spin and runs hard) and your tuk-tuks are not chasing anything over 250 anywhere in the world against us.To be honest, with that middle order, I don't see India beating us, at least not twice. I would not be surprised if team India without kohli don't make it to the final.

The only chance you have against us is for Fakhar Zaman to blitzkrieg and post a high total while batting first.But with Kul-cha and Bumrah, I dont think so he would be able to do that as easy as in CT17.
My worry is that your bowlers could make our TTFs heroes in UAE. Remember, its was over-the-hill Yuvraj who smashed your bowlers in the First match in CT.
Our bowlers were good enough to rip the pants off your batters in the biggest match of that tournament. No way do I see Pandeys, Rayudus etc scoring any meaningful runs in the tournament, let alone against Pakistan. Also Pakistan is good enough to chase 300 against your lot on these pitches. The likes of Malik and Sarfraz will become Bradmanesque smashing a few spinners around in this Asia Cup. 20 overs of spin is a God send for Malik and Sarfraz in an ODI.Middle order is good enough to score over 250 in Flat pattas in UAE( all our TTFs including Rayudu are good against spin and runs hard) and your tuk-tuks are not chasing anything over 250 anywhere in the world against us.

Pakistan should be very disappointed if they don't. Bangladesh or Sri Lanka should make the final over a Kohli-less Indian side.Then Pakistan will have no excuse but to win Asia cup. They are the strongest team with all above mentioned properties.

To be frank, the opposite is going to happen. Indian selection is a joke and I don't think the team will be able to put up decent totals in ODI's against good teams without Kohli. I would be surprised if India makes it to the finals.

Dear PAK fans, do not watch it on "television". Listen it over Radio, as breaking the radios won't cost much.:co bra

Everyone other than Fakhar. That is the reason why you are poor chasing team even in the current era of pattas.Can you point out the "tuk tuks" in Pakistan's current team?
yes, they did while bowling second.So what happened in the group game? Even an old has-been Yuvraj manhandled Hassan.And your tuk-tuks couldn't even cross 180.Our bowlers were good enough to rip the pants off your batters in the biggest match of that tournament. No way do I see Pandeys, Rayudus etc scoring any meaningful runs in the tournament, let alone against Pakistan. Also Pakistan is good enough to chase 300 against your lot on these pitches.

World cup favourites playing at their fortress, the UAE, and we are without Kohli. What reality check? Humiliation coming for India. We are a team in decline while PAK are enjoying one of their little golden eras. If PAK lose even one game against us they should hang their heads in shame.![]()
A lot of humble pie coming your way once your mediocre bowling attack gets exposed and Malik finishes off your young spinners' careers before they have had a chance to flourish. If only Kuldeep and Chahal had a few more games against South Africa/England to pad their stats. Unfair on them to face off against a team that destroyed the careers of Ashwin and Jadeja just recently.yes, they did while bowling second.So what happened in the group game? Even an old has-been Yuvraj manhandled Hassan.And your tuk-tuks couldn't even cross 180.
And chasing 300.LOL.Do you even watch how your guys play? Was struggling to chase 230 against Srilanka of all teams in the CT.And failed massively against New Zealand, the first and only non-minnow you played after CT. Your batsmen has only two method while chasing.Either tuk-tuk or going berserk.Both are not gonna win you games while chasing other than some fluke games here and there.
And Pandeys and Rayudus were flogging Australian bowlers on Indian pattas and very good players of spin.Your trundlers wouldn't be able to do much harm to them.
If we are batting first, a phainty is coming your bowlers way for sure.
Everyone other than Fakhar. That is the reason why you are poor chasing team even in the current era of pattas.
Green guys tie up ur hands, I don't want u end up breaking ur TV sets, AGAINNNN.
Blue floods coming your way![]()
Pakistan have improved leaps and bounds in LOIs. Whereas, India is struggling due to selection problems. Thanks to Shastri, Kohli and selectors.
But, I still feel that Pakistan would be given a reality check by the Indian team at the Asia cup, just like the NZ team gave a reality check after they thrashed SL in UAE.
There will be 2 to 3 matches with Pakistan. We also have to avenge our CT loss.
I think Fakhar and Amir would be their leaders, and Kohli and Bumrah from our side.
Imam will be their match Loser, and we have Dhoni.

I hope you got answers today.A lot of humble pie coming your way once your mediocre bowling attack gets exposed and Malik finishes off your young spinners' careers before they have had a chance to flourish.

Boy, I was so right.yes, they did while bowling second.So what happened in the group game? Even an old has-been Yuvraj manhandled Hassan.And your tuk-tuks couldn't even cross 180.

Hong Kong batters comprised of plumbers, electricians, mechanics scored more for first wicket than the entire WC2019 favorites team could score.
This. That decision has to be the biggest blunder in Indian cricket after What Ganguly had done in 2003. Pakistan was always a poor chasing team and even struggled to chase 230 against SL in the same damn tournament. All India had to do was bat first on the belter and put up a score above 250 and rest pressure would have taken care of itself.Indian fans shouldn't get carried away. As was seen in the CT, Pakistan is capable of bouncing back.
But at least we don't have Kohli's diabolical captaincy here. So the hope is that Rohit won't do something silly like handing Pakistan the batting on a belter of a pitch after winning the toss.

been watching cricket since 1990 .
never were India vs pakistan contents so dud and one sided .
baring last CT final win (fluke definitely) and one Shahid Afridis Asia cup blitz , India has rolled over Pakistan almost every time in last 5 years !
Bangladesh to give us a reality check as they ruthlessly put this sorry bunch out of their misery.
Disgusted by the attitude in this tournament.
It's not just the India game, no way in hell should you let an inexperienced side like Afghanistan score 257 against you. Terrible.Playing like a bunch of sissy's no intent in batting or bowling got schooled by Indians how to play on these dead pitches. Kohli no kohli this indian team is unbeatable in asia.
Why are you talking about India only? Even Afghanistan gave us a reality check when we struggled to contain them in the last 10 overs and then struggled even more chasing their total.
In the two games against India in this Asia cup it was very obvious that Pakistan players were shocked with the skill levels of India. Similar to the one they got against NZ (0-5 loss) Last time they played against a respectable team.
They have been playing lesser team (Zimbabwe and Srilanka) and that has not helped at all. This is a young Pakistan side but the likes of Imam, babar and Fakhar have gotten to used to playing against club level bowlers recently and same goes to the bowlers. People were praising Usman Khan for his wickets against Zimbabwe but I always maintained if the left armer cant bring the bowl back in which Usman Khan so obviously cant he cant succeed at International level.
Anyway this reality check was much needed and shouldn't be ignored even if they beat Bangladesh and reach the final and then beat India. Batsmen still need to learn how to play high class bowlers and bowlers must re-learn how to get high class batmen out.
