ICC Champions Trophy 2017

TBH except for the last over vs Bangladesh in ICC WC T20. Pandya has never impressed me with the bowl.

That last over was a lottery. Two full tosses hit to the fielder and one run out. India are banking on him to get through his overs without too much damage and hoping for his batting to change games. Its certainly not an approach I`d subscribe to. I`d rather go in with specialists who give you the best shot at bowling the opposition out cheaply and bank on specialist batsmen to chase it down.

On another note, Mushfiqur, for all his skill, has zero game sense. How often does he throw his wicket away just after another batsman has lost his wicket at the other end.

Oh yes, just because an idiot records a video we can't criticise pundits anymore.

Not call our cricketers scared for sure!

And what in God's green earth does that have to do with Latif?

Can we call it a truce on this Rashid Latif thing. It was an unnecessary video in response to an moronic barb by a troll. Why are we getting worked up over that. Lets talk about things to do with the match here.

Sanjay Manjrekar is a really irritating commentator. His eye for talent is rather mediocre as well.

What did my response to Rehan 24 have to do with you? Don't put a twist on things!

He has the liberty to call our pundits what he wants but when I bring up a bigger case we should just brush it aside? You are some hypocrite![DOUBLEPOST=1497528876][/DOUBLEPOST]

Sanjay Manjerekar I have disliked from day 1. But he is god in front of Gavaskar and Shastri.

Ashwin needs to show more here to justify a spot in the side. With Pandya around, we cannot afford another defensive bowling option in the middle overs.

There is this Pakistani commentator from the 90's.. The voice and the class of commentary is insane. Can't remember his name. India's best is Bhogle. I wonder why RSD doesn't do more commentary. Laxman is unbearable in the new lot.

At least Gavaskar has interesting anecdotes to share. Manjrekar thinks he offers technical insights but sound so lame doing that.

Does Bumrah remind anyone of Ntini a lot?

Bangladesh have thrown away a golden opportunity to put India under pressure!

It's a public forum.

He criticised them for whatever reason, and didn't call them anything, and you brought up that video, and said we can't criticise anyone because of that, and then said that he can't call your cricketers scared because of the video.
Latif has got to your head. Get over it. It isn't anyone's fault but his, so stop targeting Pakistani members with the excuse of that video.

India have got this game on lock. Anything less than 300 will be a cakewalk for India. India did very well to strangle Bangladesh between overs 30 and 40 and are now reaping the rewards for it.

 

[SaiSrini]

We need to keep them below 250. As aditya said, 270 and above will become very tricky for us in a semifinal chase. With Kumar and Bumrah entering their comfort zone (death overs), hope they tighten this down.

Here's an interesting stat:

19 - Wickets taken by India between overs 11 and 40 - Most for any team in this tournament. Pakistan are second with 18

If Pandya has to be covered with Jadhav/Kohli/etc, why do we need him? An extra attacking bowler in Shami would have really helped much more today. Pandya bats at a position where he might not even be needed, considering the meat that India's top order and lower top order have at the moment. In that case, it makes it a waste of space to have Pandya in the side when Shami could have played and helped us attack a lot more.
