2025 ICC Champions Trophy - General Discussions

[icyman]

Thank God for the wide and Rizwan letting that one run away, else we would have had to put up with with TukTuk batting until Over #49

So once again 3 ICC tournaments in a row, Pakistan holding hopes on “other” results.

Also I am glad I dint get up at 4 am for this game and got up just in time to watch Kohli’s masterpiece

KING ends his playing match against PAK career , like a KING

Who knows what will happen

 

[icyman]

Pakistan's batting was very similar to India's (Ahmedabad 2023). 30-40 more runs would have added an interesting element to the game.

Why Pakistan not playing Shadab Khan???
They can use him up the order as hitter and 5th bowler in spin friendly pitches...

Kholi got another 5 years of cricket left in him

Well for me if Jake Ali is given enough chances at international level anything is possible

 

[cricfan123]

Guys I watched the india vs Pakistan netflix series it was a good watch

 

[cricfan123]

Well for me it goes in this order at the goats of sports, Virat Kholi, Messi, Jordan, Tendulkar, Cristiano Ronaldo.

IND PAK match ,

Truer words have never been spoken.

Bangladesh need to get New Zealand 110-5 then they will be massive favs to win game

 

[cricfan123]

The bowling has literally been trash since New Zealand 2 wickets down

Rachin is Rahane of New Zealand, who performs well in away conditions than home, Rachin in Asia, Rahane in SENA. If Bangladesh can now break this Rachin & Conway partnership, we can expect first close match of the tourney.

I don't get this. Why would the FIFA handle laud Kohli?

The Rahane comparisons seem valid. However, this match doesn't seem like it will go down to the wire. Even if BD get one now, they will still have Latham, Phillips and Santner to come in.

Conway gone, I gotta a feeling, Bangladesh will take this game still the end. If they get Rachin in few overs & Phillips early, they might win this, but needed lot of effort from spinners and lot of cutters and slower one's from Fizz. Kiwis need good knock from Rachin and Phillips.

This Rana kid is impressive.
