Pakistan in India Dec-Jan 2012/13

What is wrong with Rameez Raja ? Why is he acting as a complete buffoon ? The commentary is quite irritating.

Nothing much. Its just that he thinks Nasir Jamshed is actually Hanif Mohammad batting.
 
No pace, bowling at 78mph on Indian decks is a gift to the batsmen. He is old now and with no match practise he is useless.

Worse decision is to keep Imran Farhat in the squad. WHY???? He never performs at all.

Imran Farhat is always useless,but Abdul Razzaq Can atleast Bat well especially in the last overs,He can hit huge sixes even fours.
 
Well played nasir and Younis,Junaid was Very special,Congratulations, Pakistan has won.
 
Good match, maybe India fell short by 20-25 runs.

I was half expecting the Man-of the Match award to be given to Nasir Jamshed. Even though MSD scored 113, i think Nasir's innings was more special.
 
Suddenly the Dhoni haters have disappeared :)

Well played by Dhoni! Junaid's first spell was absolute treat to watch. Top 4 looked clueless against him. We did make a good recovery but it was just not enough. We have to improve our fielding as well. I hope we can bounce back in next match.
 
I didn't watch the game, but by the scorecard well bowled Junaid Khan

I have been an ardent Dhoni hater for years now but that doesn't keep me back from praising Dhoni's innings. One of the finest of his innings and his keeping was excellent too in today's game. I hope he is kept on the edge right through his career if thats the reason he has put in more effort and played some substantial innings right from the 99 in the test match against England. :p
 
I don't like the fact that Dhoni makes one hundred (regardless of the fact it is a good one) and all his other game failures are forgotten.

That is like having Afridi in the side for his batting.

I dont think this is the case, most Indian supporters still hate Dhoni, thus far on this thread only one user Aaalay seems to love him.

Agreed but this time he has had a good patch for just about enough to get noticed. I guess he is now aware that with this new selection committee having no second thoughts in taking very harsh decisions, if he doesn't perform, the axe might fall on his head too. I'm liking Sandeep Patil & Co. tbh, thats how things should be. You perform or you are out. R Vinay Kumar and several others have been shown the door already and Bhuvaneshwar Kumar has been the biggest plus that India has got in the recent times. I hope along with Umesh Yadav, Kumar will do a lot of goods to Indian pace attack. I won't be surprised if Rohit Sharma is given a boot from the ODI squad; he is good at T20Is though.
 
Its not like people have been silenced by MSD's knock. He played well. Period.

If people want him to be retained as captain following this knock-I'd say bull-cr**. Its like comparing onions and potatoes. This has been probably the only knock from MSD under pressure,but most of the times, we have not seen this-especially when required.

There have also been comparisons with Kapil Dev's 175. What I'd like to know is ,if anyone really considers this innings to be worthy of that category. Kapil's innings came in England against a seaming ball and that too without a helmet. Ridiculous to actually compare the two.
