Asia Cup 2010 - Sri Lanka

Beating Pakistan is the best option because Sri Lanka in Sri Lanka is always dangerous proposition (though we have had the wood over them in their backyard in recent times).

Akthar vs Sehwag would be interesting (miss the 'Akthar vs Sachin' battle badly). Hope Sehwag repeats that upper cut for six over third man against Akthar. Those shots from Sachin/Sehwag in that memorable WC 2003 match still lingers on.
Afridi needs to repeat his Kanpur massacure here.

We need to not only beat India, but THRASH them to go to the final. Bring the NRR back down to earth.
 
Gauti was fantastic yesterday. It was just a matter of time before he got back to form, and yesterday's encounter has shown that he's on the right track. Now let's turn up the heat on Pakistan! :p

Yeah, it felt good that it was Gauti who took us to the win. Expecting Sehwag to show some class of his own against Pakistan. One game is enough for him to warm up (and he must be high on confidence after that bowling performance).

Wish we see Nehra out. Anyone but Nehra. Even RP Singh is better! If Dhoni wants a seamer, he can go for Dinda who has done decently in the Zimbabwe tour. And Dinda has good pace too (he bowls in the 140's). By the time the WC comes, I dont want to see the name of 'Ashish Nehra' in the Indian squad.

I was dreaming today that Irfan Pathan makes a spectacular comeback, Dinda or Yadav show strong performances to retain their spot in the side, Zaheer is as reliable as ever, Praveen and Jadeja keep turning in decent performances and Harbhajan/Ojha/Ashwin form a potent spin trio, thereby making the Indian bowling really strong when the WC approaches. Would be awesome if it happens (for Indians)

And what's the problem with Nehra, he's been performing decently, was the only bowler to watch during T20's too.

i doubt that pakistan can win this tbh. they always seem to screw up; i still dont know they lost to sri-lanka.
 
India will Win for sure.Dhoni is much better captain than Afridi.There are some crap batsman in Pakistan squad,even heard their names for first time.With this type of squad, they can't win against India.

@Saisrini-Nehra is much better than Dinda TBH.He has really performed.Remember he even took the wicket of Ashraful and Kayes.
 
That is unacceptable from Bangladesh, how can you lose the game when you bat first in Dambulla in a day night match? I am sure Zimbabwe would have managed a win here or at least they wouldn't have given Sehwag 4 wickets. This just makes them look so ORDINARY. It's not about individual talent, atm Bangladesh don't even deserve their ODI status forget about tests. We haven't won a single ODI this year and these shameless cricketers are a disgrace to our nation.

No team had lost that many tests when they came to the test area. To hell with them, they will never learn. I won't even regret what I just said even if they manage to win a game later, they can never make up for the embarrassment we've faced all these years now :facepalm
 
^I think they will loose every match.
So to win vcash just put the bet on the team against them.

But Murphy's Law usually kicks in. The one time you decide to bet a ton of vCash against them, they come along and miraculously pull of a win.

But, that aside, I genuinely hope that they put up more of a fight and not hand every team they play a bonus point win. They always repeat the same basic mistakes. And selecting Ashraful isn't helping their cause. He's absolutely hopeless.
 
Bangladesh for a massive collapse and SL win by 9 wickets, in 23 overs
 
Surely awesome.:sarcasm

Whats so sarcastic about that?

And about Nehra, he has been inconsistent as usual. He comes in and picks up a few wickets when its all over (at the end of an innings when the runs have been scored) and sprays the ball everywhere inspite of having been so experienced at international level having played so much. And his fielding?? Dont want to talk abt it. He is playing because the selectors have lost hope in the other options. Still, Sreesanth or RP Singh are better than Nehra.
