Asia Cup 2010 - Sri Lanka

[BKB1991]

Most likely in next year's World Cup if all goes well. I cant see relations between BCCI and PCB to get resolved so soon to allow a series between the two countries. And I wish we meet at these multi nation tournaments than in a series. Thats when the hype for our game will be extraordinary (imagine if we meet next in a World Cup quarterfinal, semifinal or final?).

That Pakistan kit reminds me of the time when we kept beating them regularly in ODI series. Especially the time when Dhoni was heating up the scene and Yuvraj Singh was at his peak. WHAT DAYS!! Hope Pakistan remains with that kit so that we are always reminded of our glory days against them:laugh

You can laugh now. Its your time But we will be back

This kit reminds me of the thrashing we gave to India in India in 2005 (I think) Under the days of Woolmer, when we came back from 2-0 down to 4-2. Epic series, sad that Neo Sports have got those rights, they only show the 2 ODIs India won. And yeah and India had every superstar playing at that time, so to beat them at their peak was an achievement for Ol' Inzamams team. Boy I miss him

Some memorable moments of Ind-Pak match-

and then this

Can someone tell me why HSingh and Akthar were having a go? I missed that part. Someone told me that Harbhajan didnt like the bouncers.

I did love the clashes. They always add the sting to those games. In the recent past the teams have started to be polite to each other and I dont want it that way

So that was Pakistan 9th consecutive lost in an ODI. I don't even remember when the last time Pakistan won in an ODI and against whom.

Because bhajji hit a six against akhtar.

Shoaib Akhtar to Harbhajan Singh, no run, 139.3 kph, lovely bouncer, he keeps the game alive, Bhaj goes for the big pull and doesn't connect. Shoaib has come back well, and gives Bhaj an earful. Doctrove intervenes, but they have shared some pleasantries already

It says Akhtar said something first but who knows? That was nice reply from Harbhajan showing his celebration to Akhtar but didn't understand what was Akhtar trying to say by signaling V shaped fingers. Maybe enjoy the victory and go?

2 Defeats to NZ, + 5 against the Aussies + 2 Asia Cup. Although tbf 5 of the games went down the wire.

To those who havent followed Pakistan cricket closely,

Because bhajji hit a six against akhtar.

Just read Cricinfo, it confirms the bouncers were the reason.

 

[Gurjot95]

At least the Pakistan losing series will be broken in next match

 

[cricketer1]

lol@Akhtar he was trying to anger Harbhajan. Last time someone tried to this to Harbhajan was Hayden and Symonds in OZ in the CB series
And the result was
1st Final: Australia v India at Sydney, Mar 2, 2008 | Cricket Scorecard | Cricinfo.com

2nd Final: Australia v India at Brisbane, Mar 4, 2008 | Cricket Scorecard | Cricinfo.com

Harbhajan dismissed both Hayden and Symonds in consecutive final matches.

Atleast Hayden and Symonds were real cricketers not some showman like Akhter.He should concentrate on his game otherwise his career will have an embarassing end.

You mean against Bangladesh? It may or may not. Cricket is a funny game, my friend. I'd love to see Bangla put up a fight.

 

[Prithvi]

If I were Shakib Al Hasan, I'd have warned all my team mates strictly to play with 100% commitment. All you need to win against Pakistan is that.

Binnu added 3 Minutes and 18 Seconds later...

You can laugh now. Its your time But we will be back

Ah man, you're a Indo-Pak fight creator.
After all, its just a 50 over game of cricket, in which India won.

And wait, you should ask why shouldn't we laugh, rather than you can laugh.
Cause its Pakistan Cricket Circus, which is responsible for these results.

Harbajan turned out to be hero but he would have become the greatest villain had India lost. At one stage, India had to score 7 from 8. But he swung the bat wildly and missed 2 deliveries.He missed a delivery in the last over as well. This caused Raina's runout.
Infact I think it was Praveen Kumar who played sensibly and scored those 3 crucial runs.

interesting to see the game between IND and SL they might rest their key players

 

[AkshayS]

At least the Pakistan losing series will be broken in next match

might be not.

 

[rocky_g]

Bangladesh have a good chance of winning against Pakistan.

 

[Meet]

No, I don't think.SL and Ind faced too much difficulty to defeat PAK.

And even I have bet for PAK in vbookie betting 2 M.
