Give a good bowler to Asif and he won’t do ****. He’s just lucky 

You're the most jealous guy on the forum , and has been. Try to enjoy the game and learn to appreciate some good cricket.

[neel roy]

India seriously needs to train up one guy for the Asif ali Role. And the guy is Abdul Samad.  We already have him. Just tell him To concentrate on hitting sixes. 

[Lone Wolf]

Asif Ali is PSL's best six hitter among Pakistanis...   He is used to this.  Although doing this consistently in a world cup makes this look very great indeed.  Klusner esque surely.

How are you so sure, Indian conditions are not very different than uae. It's good they spanked us in UAE , I bet they would spank us again if we somehhow reach to the final.

 

they are very different. Indian games are high scoring and pitches are flatter.Babar etc would be a liability.

Clarity & proper grooming is needed.  I'll say give him a shot vs Kiwis after World cup in T20Is.  Back him like they did with Pandya who has shown minimal returns in 5 years.

We can only dream of such striker of the ball. 3 sixes last game and 4 today and in a matter of few balls, all over  !!! All our sooperstars can only tuk tuk their way to 120 SR. Wish Fake Pandoo could have done 50% of what Asif did

Nope on flat pitches also they ll spank us. As they will restrict us for mediocre score like they did in last match due to much better bowling.

Samad,SRK,Abhishek.Maybe Venky too.

 

KKD is underrated in this.

[putrevus]

Will our great Pandya ever be able to do what Asif did today. So called great finisher.

Faster outfields & small grounds help every side.  Even Bangladesh came closer to us beating there.  Dew on Indian venues is a nightmare.

How come suddenly all Pak players clicking together?

 

1) Asif Ali was a walking wicket but suddenly looking a monster striker

 

2) Shaheen was okaish T20 bowler with economy rate of 7.45. But suddenly bowling 150kph and not conceeding much runs here.

 

3) Rauf looked like a joke of bowlet this summer in Eng...suddenly bowling very well.

 

4) Even Shadab who is mostly a part time spinner, doing well here.

 

Kuch to hua hai...how can they suddenly all became so good?

 

Kuch to gadbad hai daya...pata lagana padega

 

 

 

 

 

 

MOTIVATION...... Tons of. No players in IPL, ridiculed by NZ and Eng plus inclusion of Rameez. He can give some good emotional speeches and of course good money if they perform well. On the other hand, our players already have their bags full. Zero motivation WC or no WC lead by a fool. 

[neel roy]

India had a similar run in 2014 if i am Not wrong. Now comes the main challenge for pakistan. To go to sf as favourites. All through they used to go to sf as underdogs and win. Now they ll go as favourites. 

[Bigg Brother]

Those who were giving excuses like Pandya came when only 12 were left,this is reality check for them. The guy changed the match one *ing over. That's what finishers are for. This fraud Dhongi has changed definition of finishing. 

[vivek04]

Why kohli is such a moron of highest order. His team selections and blunders on the field cost us so much in high level matches i am not able to digest. His selection of bhuvi vs pak was mental. I forget he selected spinners vs nz in wtc when thr conditions was overcast.

and how far Pak went there?

 

BD game was a low scoring one.

 

Even here toss is big factor

[cricketfan28]

so its is Sir Don Asif ali .. not Sir Don Pandya anymore ..

Pandya is a great finisher for opposition team.

Kohli wasted 5 years on him.

. Before we start blaming captain, do we have any in IPL or domestic cricket?

[Norman]

All of a sudden , it's a matter of two games before Pak are the world T20 champions 

 

It'll be a galactic size slap on the face of IPL, BCCI , Indian cricket and it's supporters to see Pak (of all teams) lifting their 2nd WT20 title after the inception of IPL while we got a big ol ghanta.

Pak team was horse sh**.. Manzoor Shehzad Umar Akmal Afretard..  Bowlers like Irfan Sami only Amir was good.  This team is miles better. 

 

I was actually talking about T20 series vs BD in 2019
