India vs Pakistan Final?

Many Indian friends of mine have a different feel about Pakistan fixtures now compared to let's say a decade ago. Whereas they were confident in a win in the past, it's more a nervous confidence now. It's probably to do with the fact this Pakistan side doesn't carry some of the scars that previous teams led by Wasim, Waqar, Inzamam etc etc had.

 

 

In T20 maybe. The gulf in class isnt apparent over a 40 over shootout. Over an ODI series or a test series, India would be far more confident. Also it isn't just Pak not having scars, it is also down to India's own side being fairly mediocre in T20. Even now I feel India start as slight favourites even in T20 anywhere outside of UAE.

 

[Lord]

Pakistan would be favourites if that happens

 

We barely beat them in group game and now they have added Haris and Wasim. Plus Shaheen is back in form.

 

We depend too much on SKY/VK in batting and Arshdeep in bowling

Can see Pak beating NZ and England beating India unfortunately

 

I don't want an India Pak final because of the tension

Unfortunately Pak look good, of course they can always have one of their days. 

Shaheen back in rhythm is key
 They have good balance : 4 genuine pacers, 2 spinners plus part time off spin
Someone like Haris can come in and just slog because he knows Shadab and Nawaz come in at 6 and 7, Waseem is handy at 8

But the worst and tuk  tuk opening pair of all the teams .

England will score 155/8

Pakistan will score it in 19 overs 

155-3

Rizwan will score 70(52) .

Pakistan vs England will be a dream final, 1992 vibe

I'm confident we can beat Pak if we face them in the finals.  I'm more worried about Eng in semis.

Harris Rauf ? He played vs us. Kohli hit sixers. Wasim good with Yorkers but was expensive against Bangladesh. Doubt shaheen is back in form it’s Bangladesh being chokers and couldnt dig Yorkers or place the ball.

Mohd Haris.

 

Batting in top 4 has played 2 quick knocks v SA and now BD.

 

Unknown players always do well  v us

It seems like a repeat of 1992 WC.

 

Hosted in Aus, but Aussies don't make semis

Pak gets in last minute via backdoor

Pak plays NZ in semis

If Eng beat us and Pak beat NZ, then Pak v/s Eng final.

 

I hope it doesn't pan out the way the 92 WC did.

One more similarity:

Rain plays a big role in denying SA.

Pakistanis don’t play bouncers well. Final at MCG we should use bouncers smartly. Main worry is spin. Still don’t have good options. 

[Vickydev]

I think it's on. Pakistan as ever will beat NZ but have a feeling we'll beat England as well.

lol lamest excuse it was win and done. If you loose to associate nation you have to blame yourself. Rabada and Ngidi was bowling crap and going at 10 Rpo. Maharaj was crap too. Nortje bowled most economy spell of World Cup and they still lost.  Bavuma doesn’t even has the t20 game. But he is a captain. They had quota players who couldn’t perform. Jansen was in the bench.

England will annihilate us 

 

Pak will own Nzl

 

Pak will own England.

 

Thats how it works. 

[bowl_out]

2007 T20 WC repeating?

 

- India playing under a new T20I captain

- India beats Pak in the league stage from an almost impossible stage.

- Hosts crash out in league stage

- SA choke from possibly topping the group to crashing out due to one piss poor batting performance

- India vs Pakistan final

You need to open some magic thread like the Wade one

If we meet Pakistan in the finals, we will defeat them.
