TNAmarkFromIndia Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 With India playing the Asia Cup sans Kohli, could they lose their first ever ODI to Afghanistan in this tournament? They don't look like a complete side yet but with our unreliable batting I can totally expect us to be in trouble if we have a collapse and/or certain individuals choose to play a Test innings on that day. raki05, velu and UrmiSinhaRay 1 2 Link to comment

zen Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 I would not be surprised if one of Afg and BD beat either Ind or Pak in Super 4 Switchblade and UrmiSinhaRay 1 1 Link to comment
Frustrated Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 11 minutes ago, zen said: I would not be surprised if one of Afg and BD beat either Ind or Pak in Super 4 Does not look impossible. Although the chances are low. It seems the UAE wickets heavily favour the team batting first. As the game progress, the pitch becomes slow and the ball does not come to the bat properly. Today, Rashid and Mujeeb looked unplayable. Yesterday Pakistani batsmen struggled a bit to get 120 odd runs quickly. They took nearly 25 overs. Luckily, there is no kohli this time around. So, we might win a few tosses and bat first. LOL. UrmiSinhaRay and zen 1 1 Link to comment

BD and Afg will likely improve as the tourney progresses UrmiSinhaRay and Frustrated 1 1 Link to comment
Zero_Unit Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 AFG's bowling is a threat where as BD's batting is a threat. If either of IND's bowling/batting department fails against their strong suit, trouble is all I can say. This is why I think Pakistan is the most well balanced team this 2018 asia cup. They got both batting/bowling figured out. However they have a sh*tty captain so bonus for us lol. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

Jimmy Cliff Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Need to bring in Pujara in the middle-order to counter their spinners . Switchblade, Forever Indian, UrmiSinhaRay and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment
Cricket_Fan Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Pandey and Rauyud are TTFS for sure but they are pretty good against spin.Their lack of power game should suit for UAE pitches and both of them are good in rotating singles.Look how they played well against Australia A which had Stanlake,Jye Richardson and Ashton Agar who are any day better than any bowling attack in Asia cup.
