    2023 ICC Cricket World Cup (October/November) - India

    I don’t care about losing, but I want to see a fight and a passion for the game. If you lose and grow from it – ala England from 2015 to 2019; then that lose was worth it. This has been happening nonstop since I have been following Pakistan – since the early 2000’s. Inzi (the chief selector)...

    2023 ICC Cricket World Cup (October/November) - India

    Pakistan’s whole mentality is 90’s-esque. Survive the first 10 overs, don’t give them any wickets against the new ball and happily accept 45/1 (other teams like India are being proactive and are getting 70+ ish). We hit our first six in the powerplay today – in our 5th game (took more than 44...

    Shan Masood was a recent vice-captain before being dropped.

    Please don't do this kind of rubbish. We Pakistanis have to deal with it enough where every tournament they find some similarity to the 1992 WC - and then pedal that rubbish like crazy. Don't become like us.

    This outfield is not acceptable - you can not create an outfield where the players have to worry about diving.

    Being a Bangladesh fan must really make you believe in miracles.

    Really looking like the top 3 slots will be between India, NZ and SA and the final spot is an all-out fight between Pakistan, England and Australia.

    Fielding errors continue. Plus - I always have this weird light circle/bubble around my player. Does anyone else have it/any solutions known?

    2023 ICC Cricket World Cup (October/November) - India

    We desperately need one big convincing win - a lot of the team seems deflated (at least to me) Shaheen Afridi is lacking his mojo, Hasan Ali looks like he just wants to get through his overs (at that too at 130 kmph) and Usama Mir has nerves made of paper at the moment.

    2023 ICC Cricket World Cup (October/November) - India

    Because of the way India is batting in the WC - the sides feel like they need at least 300+ to give them half a chance. Then you implode with the quality bowlers in the middle order. Honestly, India and New Zealand are the only ones so far who seem to be playing this level of cricket.

    2023 ICC Cricket World Cup (October/November) - India

    Ideally, you want to give everyone a go before the Semi-finals in case of an injury and for everyone to be match-fit - India is already in a strong position with 3 out of 3, and this will be a huge game for Bangladesh. Bring in Ashwin, and ring the changes. I don't see Bangladesh as a strong...

    2023 ICC Cricket World Cup (October/November) - India

    I think he is saying that the crowd was basically 100% Indian due to the visa issues and the game felt more like a BCCI set-up bilateral series than a WC game (where you would expect 50%/50% crowds like if the games were played in another country). But honestly, he hasn't been in Pakistan for...

    Please don't turn this in a Facebook comment section. You're rating that higher than Ireland beating England in 2011. With Kev O'Brian's century! That's an upset for the poster.

    Arthur is there for the paycheck only. Pakistan cricket team is second to the county management stint he is doing. Najam Sethi came in with the same useless ideas we had before. Bought back the same useless rubbish that worked in 2017 for a different bunch of players. He is not even there to...

    2023 ICC Cricket World Cup (October/November) - India

    Honestly, didn't watch the game because I wasn't feeling it. So can't comment on any of the chants or anything - but don't really care about it. I think it was @LiveLoveABD (and @Bevab )who said that he rated Pakistan highly in this tournament (apologies if I am wrong) - but honestly, this is...

    Did you watch the Pakistan bowling lol? If this was any other side - we would be looking at a chase in excess of 400! When your strong suit is looking half-baked, this is really worrying. Abduallah Shafique came in so let's see how he takes over from Fakhar Zaman. I really hope Pakistan...

    Say whatever you like - honestly, the Netherlands side is better than the current WI ODI outfit. Definitely deserve to be here. Just a little shaky about finishing things off. Let Pakistan off a little the other day and gave away about 40/50 extra at the end with NZ today.

    My favorite thing about that game was Pakistan was batting well and then someone (one of the Pak players) said in Punjabi "Canada is bowling too short for this pitch" - half the Canadian team was Punjabi and heard it and bowled fuller and Pakistan batting collapsed.

    Cricket 24 - General Discussion

    Do they? I've been playing on PS4 (I have heard different platforms have different patch versions) and honestly, I don't really think so - they keep sidestepping when you hit past them. Quite often you can take an easy 2 when you hit the ball directly to the fielder in the deep. There are easy...
