After a terrible performance by Afridi in Asia Cup, he is back with a bang. Boom Boom is in form!
 
Some of the comments from the Indian fans are absolutely laughable. This is the team that will represent us, no matter if you like it or not. Yes, they had a bad day but instead of bashing them, this is the time to support them when they require it the most.
 
Pleas someone get rid of Stutter Ali Khan. It's just so irritating to hear about how great and mighty the Bangladeshis are every F***ing time

Sorry dude!

A team who comments upon how difficult it is to adapt to home conditions cannot be a contender for the World T20 or for that matter any tournament. India lacked application in their batting and perhaps we are on course to losing our first match versus Pakistan as well. A loss isn't a problem, the fact that your team's batting never turned up-is something that needs to be looked at closely. This has happened thrice in a row when they were put in on fiery and pitches that aid the bowlers. Surely adapting isn't that tough.

Having a bad day is completely different than what India has yesterday- it was pathetically worse.
 
good victory for Pakistan... there next target will be the win against India... even they played brilliantly today, against India they will struggle...

it is not adopting home condition... it is pitch which gave us trouble... every one know that, batting 1st is crucial... if see the toss, you will know that how Williamson felt after winning toss... if India get 1st batting, they might put 10 more runs to what NZ scored... and NZ will be played like India did... but, disappoint is knowing all this fact about pitch, top order bat really bad... they needed to spend some time and play some dot balls first...
 
Even more pressure on India for the game on Saturday. as Pakistan have lesser to lose than India
 
Meanwhile, Eng v WI should be quite interesting. Will be a good test for an English team which is on song in the shorter format

This is what unpredictability at its peak by Team Green. Congratulations on a well-deserved and superb victory :) First 200 runs of the tournament and a wake up call to all favorites on paper.

Indian team and fans would be pressure cooker at the moment. The game would be now more high pressure than ever. Looking Forward

Regarding Pak squad, I would now back the same winning squad. I felt that Sami should be first choice in place of Wahab because of his poor form and he is bit over-hyped by media and some fans out there, but now you can't take a chance of inducting Sami in a pressure game in place of Wahab.
 
Even though the crowd's good, their quiteness makes it look like the stadium's almost empty.
 
This will be a goood chase if WI are up for it
 
Gayle must be cursing Samuels under his breath - has hogged the strike for 2 overs now

looks like we got some dew kicking in
 
Well done on a good victory, Pakistan!

Saturday is going to be a massive blockbuster! Hoping for a good track. India's batsmen on a good track v Pakistan's bowlers will be a delight to watch! All is not lost for India. I still think India have it in them to win 3 out of 3 and make the semis. I am backing them. They won 10 out of 11 recently including a series win against Australia in Australia (yes Aussies didnt have a few of their top ones, but still they are one of the strongest ever in their own backyards). And we also won the Asia Cup on challenging wickets for batting (due to our bowler's consistency). Yes, India will be knocked out if they lost and Pakistan will have much less to lose if they fail to win, but India under pressure and that too when they face up to Pakistan, is a team to back IMO.

For our next game, I would drop Pandya and bring in either Negi or Harbhajan. We have Bumrah and Nehra and they are more than enough. A third spinner will greatly help in the middle overs. And both Negi and Harbhajan can hold a bat and stand their own. And our 6 batsmen are more than capable to get whatever score required.
