helperononline Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 Pakistan deserves it excellent fielding, they have got excellent spinners & fast bowler Running between the Wicket was excellent India deserve to lose for going with half fit hardik and Really poor captaincy I felt kohli should have attacked more early Link to comment
kosingh Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 India seemed to have approached this as if it were a meaningless bilateral. Completely uninspired and disinterested. beetle, ShoonyaSifar and nitinbwj 1 2 Link to comment

Lets not look for excuses. What we did today was exactly what Windies did yesterday. Pakistani bats played all shots on ground. Our bats were hitting sixes. Ash gets dropped because he is to be replaced by young blood Chakravarti but Bhuvi makes to side fir his experience. Injured Pandya makes to side. In first over, after a six and four from Rizwan our skipper realises that he scores run square of boundry. Ie we have no clue no plan anound oposition. And our skipper cool job was seen how he rotated 5 bowlers in powerplay. Rohit was silent throughout the planning. I don’t think we are playing as unit. Wont make to semis with this attitude ShoonyaSifar and MechEng 2 Link to comment

Better to remove his right away to salvage something in this tournament. nitinbwj, ShoonyaSifar and beetle 1 2 Link to comment

Tbf the pitch was generally better to bat on in the second innings with the dew, much better against spinners as they were bowing with a wet ball. Link to comment
mishra Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 Just now, MechEng said: Robin, Pujara and Rahane are not in good terms with Kohli, that's a known fact. Not that. If you would have observerd, Pakistani were getting single at will. So they didn’t needed to hit in air. But Anything in air was in gaps. Who is to be blamed but skipper for this. I have allways maintained, its just that 1-2 yards left right front back makes all the difference when stopping singles or boundry or getting a catch. MechEng 1 Link to comment
Mariyam Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 I never thought I'd use the word calm in the context of Pakistan. But they batted with a lot of composure. We're so used to irrational emotional shots from their batters giving away unnecessary wickets. Not so the case today. Congratulations Pakistan. New guy 1 Link to comment

Rizwan and babar have been doing this for a long time now. I know many Indians used to mock them and their rankings but their stats are outstanding GoldenSun 1 Link to comment

Welcome to Pakistan cricket. They play like champions one day only to fall like a pack of cards the very next day. I will not be surprised if they lose to Afg in the coming week. Link to comment

There was a fixed pattern in all India-Pak matches I have seen in WCs. Pak always choked under pressure. They didn't today and I think this could have been the difference. Link to comment

Congratulations Pakistan. yes pointed this out on the match thread - bt to be fair, the sub par target never really put them under that much pressure. But they batted well and earned the win. India tried but just couldn't get out from under the massive crap-boulder of the 1st powerplay - 36/3 is hard to recover from. Pak for a change didn't lose the plot on either side of the ball. Every time India started to claw its way back - with Sky hitting a couple of boundaries, or Rishabh doing it, like clockwork a wicket fell, or a tight over came through. Things went Pak's way from the toss onwards, and for rest of the day for the most part apart from 19.5. A bad day and upset can happen in T20, it is what it is. But a lot of folks are reading waaaaaaaaaaay too much into things. Edit: Btw, thanks to @rangeelaraja for repeatedly making me smile with his obsessive following of each of my post, and tagging it with the laugh smiliey. I mean, the fact that I live rent-free in your head, to this degree, is indeed hilarious. Edited October 24, 2021 by sandeep rangeelaraja 1 Link to comment
sandeep Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 Btw, Congratulations to all Pakistan fans - big day for them. Their team played well and earned a major win that was completely dominant and no question marks on it. Enjoy it. GoldenSun and rangeelaraja 1 1 Link to comment

Its no wonder they are rated so highly in world cricket. Had a pleasure of seeing this match while cheering for every run and wicket. Thank you India for giving us a great game. Breaking this streak was an icing on the cake. Made the wait worth it. the main streak of 7-0 still is in place.... How ever Pakistan can be relieved of the fact that they could finally get rid of at least the lesser streak of the 2 and there by the over all streak. Link to comment
