Sachin enters and the crowd eruption was goosebumps. Seeing the Eden Gardens packed like this literally brought joyous tears in my eyes as the days of the 90's flooded right in my mind and in front of my eyes. This game of cricket is so emotionally attached with us that we can go on telling stories about it and about our association with it.

Oh no! Two overs deducted for the match. I wish that's the end of the overs reduction. Kolkata needs to really invest on a superior drainage system. The way BCB redeemed Mirpur so quickly after a deluge of rain was amazing. India with all its money can't achieve something like that? Its embarrassing.

I think instead of having those speeches we had the toss, we could've had a full game.

The ground needs to be completely ready and the umpires need to stamp their approval on its readiness. Conducting speeches do not need umpires stamp of approval. Let's cut some slack. I know all of us are excited and waiting for action to begin.

Imad out, Sami in

I'd say sensible decision by Dhoni to put Pakistan in even though the pitch looks glossy and good for batting. With the overhead conditions and a rain truncated game, historically the D/L calculations have favored the team batting second. And Dhoni with his and his team's finishing acumen backs that aspect of the game more.

Yesterday I wanted a change in the side (an extra spinner for Pandya) but seeing the weather conditions have sorta changed my opinions.

Awesome feeling when those anthems were sung. Only Indians and Pakistanis know how big such games are. Absolutely cracking atmosphere! Last post for a while now. Let us go!

The Pakistan team management proving once again that they're all douchebags, by playing an extra seamer on this surface and leaving out Imad.

Another crap pitch. Spin that spits up at neck height in the 4th over of the match. Pakistan don't stand a chance given that they only have 8 overs of spin available. 4 of those by a average bowlers

Malik is as average as Moeen Ali.
