Putting this Asia Cup win in perspective

Put this win vis-a-vis the Paki game. IN both cases the runs required were 268 and India went on to achieve that -- despite them being the "supposed -- Bowling Powerhouse". In this case the best team in the tournament - needed the same number of runs and you saw what happened. Whenever you are chasing in Dumbo Lala -- you start at 50 runs behind ---- just because of the nature of the wicket. This is why the win against Pakis is all the more satisfying. Of course the preview to Final was an abberation.

Yes. Same target' date=' same venue. You can now compare the fast bowlers.[/quote'] Give swinging conditions to all the teams in the world. India will outperform most of the teams in a shoot out for swing bowlers.

It’s a bit like the final two ODI matches of the Jeet lo Dil ODI series back in 2004. In the 2nd last ODI, that fantabulous partnership b/w Yuvraj and MS helped us easily surmount a 290+ target, while in the last ODI, Pakistan was dismissed well short of a similar target, batting second.

Yeah sure. Our batting is better because we amassed 385 -_-. Indians and their logic :P
Against which team did you score 385 ? :hysterical: And btw if Pakiz had logic why do they suck so much in international maths, science, olympiad.

That is a great consolation you take back from Asia cup. 385 against the mighty Bangladeshis. Flaunt it all you can.

add attapattu's logic to our neighbours logic, he was saying on neo sports srilanka was best team in Asia cup because it took perfect game from India to beat them.

while there is no doubt that paki bowling attack sucks DONKEY BALLS, you have to remember that this match was a final. chasing in a final is a completely different proposition, the pressure on batsmen is 100x greater. but i am still super chuffed to see india knock the stuffing outof SL like this. it reminded of how they played in the 2003 world cup - batsmen putting up scores below 300 and 3 indian seamers ripping through the top order to seal easy wins

Indian bowling is better. Because we bowled out Bangladesh on 168. :hehe: Once again we don't have real phaast bowlers. But our bowlers are good enough to win matches for us. :finger:

Why is everyone on this forum so obsessed with Pakistan, no seriously? I think its high time you change the name of this website, www.indiancricketphanswhodon'ttalkaboutindiabutonlytalkaboutpakistan.com

pakistani bowlers are a 100 times better. if they didn't fix most games they would easily beat india. pretty sure that asia cup game was fixed as well.

The forum has become unreadable. Pakistan this, Pakistan that. Then we have internet sleuths who spend countless hours trying to figure out who is a Pakistani and who is Australian by 'analyzing' posts and user names. On a day that the Indian team won a major championship there is nothing worthwhile to read here except a barrage of emoticons and dragging Pakistan into every thread, a team which was out of the tournament many days back.
