Mar 30 - Pakistan v India (Semi-Final 2)

[King Cricket]

On second thoughts, if India can topple their top order within 20 or so overs by accurate bowling, odds are that we may induce a collapse. Maybe it's asking too much from bowlers who get smoked by Bangladesh, but I can't help but feel that all is not over yet. Harbhajan is the person who should spearhead the bowling today, and the part-timers have to come good too. The pitch should reward spinners profusely if they bowl well.

I'll deduct 30 runs from our total for we have Nehra in the team who'll be giving Gul a fierce competition as far as the most expensive bowler of the day is concerned. Even then, I do think that we can come back as the opposition is Pakistan, a team laden with mercuric batsmen.

I can safely say very few. They may want us kicked out of International Cricket though

After that spot fixing scandal and that also when the ECB had offered Pakistan, England as their home for playing with other teams, a lot of nations must be vying to put the PCB out of its misery, but if pakistan goes on to win this match or even the cup im pretty sure quiet a few of them will mellow down.

On the other hand if by any freak luck India win this, im more than sure that dropping Sachin for gazzillion times in this match will not go unnoticed and there might be a massive enquiry on this Pakistan team.

Not a good start from India at all. If this is what our bowlers have in store for today, then I see no hope. We must keep it tight and search for wickets.

excellent batting by india. completely capitalizing on the start given by sehwag.

also, fantastic fielding by pakistan...didnt even drop a single catch. drastic improvement.

tendulkar looked as fluent as ever. toying with the bowlers especially ajmal.

and a quickfire 50 from 20 balls from dhoni is making sure india reach 450+

Inshallah with 460 on the board we shall win this too.

Noway we can lose this, we have two top wickettakers from this tournament in Nehra and Munaf.

Noway we can lose this, we have two top wickettakers from this tournament in Nehra and Munaf.

Even though, they can't be able to chase that target.

Not to mention they are firing thunderbolts @ 160 KMph .

Say, if we do lose the game, which we are likely to, what will happen to your Bunga Bunga party? Postponed to infinity?

What the hell was that ? Bangladeshi English ?

 

[crazyrahul]

It was disgusting batting performance from India once again, I just want now Dhoni out of Indian squad. Enough is Enough. Sachin was not upto the marka s well in his 85-runs inning.

well bowled Riaz though.
I am looking for Zak's magic bowling now , but don't have any hopes from nehra and Munaf.

Well, I do have a private Bunga Bunga party everyday (Twice, both ways) .

And what a start Pakistan lost 5 wickets with 10 runs on board and 23 overs gone.

Inshallah with 460 on the board we shall win this too.

Mashallah we are already on our way to victory! Khushamdeed.

Not to mention they are firing thunderbolts @ 160 KMph .

160 ? please. its 260 Kmph. didnt you see those fiery bouncers whisshing past the helmet and those toe crushing yorkers ? munaf and nehra have learnt the art in just 15 mins during that break.

look at those eyes, the runup, the stare...the intent! my word!

Mohd. Asif and aamer must be thankful to the ICC for the ban.
they certainly wouldnt have wanted to face this batting onslaught and terrific pace bowling.

 

[King Cricket]

One wonders whether the Indians have given up already. We are letting Pakistan spray boundaries all over the ground and march ahead with a runrate close to 7. At least put up a semblance of fight, and try to pry open chances.
