Ashwin Is a fighter. He would have fought hard vs Kiwis.

a) Don’t win key games 

b) Brazenly make comments on helping some team against another for your cause 

 

I always felt there is something wrong with Ashwin. Tomorrow, in IPL, this joker will make such comments too

I am not happy about this ashwin comment to be honest. Really unexpected. Ash is a great player but this comment is doing a disservice to our team's mentality.

Ashwin is looking for attention. Probably has psychological issues.

 

How about if some Pak player offers to help NAM to beat India for whatever reasons

We are depending on Afghanistan to bail us out.It is shameful.We don’t deserve to be in semis.Our team is bad in the tournament and We deserved to get eliminated.Prepare a good team and we will win in future.

williamson is a strong captan not like pattu kohli.

Absolutely. We don't deserve ****. If Afghans beat Kiwis full credit to them but the way we played vs pakiatan and Kiwis, we don't deserve to progress at all.

Ashwin said what he said in jest, here is Clown's chest thumping after beating Scotland

A dominating performance. It was something we were striving to again. I don't want to say too much about today because we know how we can play. These little things in T20 cricket (toss, conditions) matter and we're glad to be back in our mojo. We spoke about 100-120 max but we restricted them to a total that allowed us to leapfrog everyone else. We spoke about finishing in the 8-10 over bracket. You don't want to go in with six-and-a-half or a seven-and-half run mark because then you're doing too much. We gave that bracket and allowed them to get that momentum. If you look at our practice games as well, the guys have been batting like that. Two overs of cricket like that and the momentum of the tournament could have been completely different. We basically broke it down to the fact that we couldn't get away at all in those two games, two overs could have made the difference. I'm just pleased everyone is getting into their own.

So basically we must be satisfied this minnow bashing and wins in practice matches..and this two overs..top bowling attacks are going to be relentless, you are not going to get two overs of pies from anyone..rather than introspecting we keep giving excuses of half an hour of bad cricket, two overs etc.

There is no harm in hoping that the Afghans will try and beat NZ.

The day game helps their cause, a few crucial Umpires calls going their way, a miscue here, a run out there, marginal errors etc can all stack up even against good teams.
While we hope for this, we need to also brace for the worst case scenario as well!

Cricket is an unpredictable sport especially the T20 we all know that. 

Lets hope we get the result we are looking for!

Afghanistan has a good chance if all their spinners are fit. Also, it's a day game in Abu Dhabi, which has been a good ground for them. 50-50 I would say.

I am ready . Let's start the match Baby. Can't wait . 

 

Just want the Afghans to play up to their potential and put up a good fight. Hope they don't self implode like a team of 11 Dumb Afridis.

 

Usually NZ is the most ruthless team against the Minnows after SL so a win against them is very difficult but still all the best to Afghans. If they win,  it will be a memorable victory that will be cherished for years to come.

Even if we advance to SFs with current Kaptaan each of you can expect juvenile mistakes being made in KO

So its like expecting Sun to rise from West

To me this game is like (in Kohli's words)just another game,we aren't winning anything with him there

You're still salty.. :lol:

 

For the 1000th time... stop shitting your pants. Even if by sone miracle, we go through.. We aren't winning against England in the semi. You should be scared of England/Australia.

Yes better to crash out in the group stages rather than painful semifinal exit. We have absolutely no chance against England

Yes we do have a very good chance vs englang as long we pick the right team. We beat them in England in t20 and in India. In bilaterals yes but we don't have mental block vs them. We only suck vs Kiwis for some strange reason. 

 

However, with kohli at helm we won't get through to semis anyway. So doesn't matter.

Got it. So Nabi bowling 4 overs = Afghanistan bringing A game.

 

Also Najeeb(ullah Zadran) has played all matches for Afghanistan so far, perhaps you mean Mujeeb
