Group C (Afghanistan, India, South Africa) - 12th Match Afghanistan v SA

[Params7]

:laugh:laugh

and you call yourself a indian cricket team fan!! Do not have even 1% faith??

It's Afghanistan and not Bangladesh!!

With the facilities they have (like one proper cricket pitch) and the state their country is in, they shouldn't even be in this tournament.

Anyone else reckon we'll see a 300 run total reached in this group by either India or South Africa?

I would definitely have butterflies in my stomach before the India-Afghan game. India's previous game before this is the IPL. They dont play warmups too. Though the pitches wont be too tough, the conditions will be different from that of India and we are always shaky starters.

Hope we get past Afghanistan.

Afghan for 2nd round :happy

Save those butterflies for next round I have a strong feeling that India would even beat SA. Yes, I agree with the pitch conditions. Windies pitch have given us many problems, but in last ODI series in WI, we dominated them if I am not wrong. So, it should be all ending well.

 

[Prithvi]

All I Hope is Afghan don't blast like how Zimbabwe did to Australia in first edition!

 

[shravi]

Suren being optimistic ? Now I've seen it all.

OMG, what has the world come to? Suren, are you alright?

Anyways, good to see that.

on paper afghanistan have no chance, but on the field *gets memories of 07 world cup bangladesh match*...

Tough way for India to break the biggest barrier in the prelims - The South Afrikaans!

varun_rustagi added 13 Minutes and 6 Seconds later...

But still India will go to the Super 8s.

 

[Paki007]

india will top this group and Sa will finish 2nd that's what i think

 

[McLOVIN]

"I read their opener (Karim Sadiq) said he was not scared of facing Dale Steyn and I wouldn't be either if I grew up in a war zone"

Graeme Smith is wary of a fearless Afghanistan in the ICC World Twenty20



Thats LOW from Smith! Didnt expect it from him. Ponting saying things like that would make sense.

But thats a goood burnn!! i have to admit!! :laugh

 

[pcfan123]

I don't think its a burn, there is a bit of truth to it. If you grow up around war (Afghan war going on 7 years now) then why would a cricket ball scare you. Bullets and bombs > bouncers from Steyn.

Anyways I hope Afghanistan get pummeled into the ground for eliminating USA from the World Twenty20 qualifiers.
