i think new zealand is good opponent for us compared to windies we will get to final for sure i hope its rsa vs india final tht way i wont be sad no matter who wins B->
Anything can happen in a knockout but to me even WI would have been a good opposition to play against. We learnt from our game against WI where we played 3 spinners. This time round things would be different as we have our combination right other than maybe Vihari and Nath who I have no clue what they bring to the table. Even against kiwis I fancy our chances but am not too bothered.
It was a close game with India edging it end of story. It's a sport not some my dick is bigger then yours competition. We have emotionally charges harmonic fools on both sides who are on both forums. For me this game was about watching stars of future. Chand, Sami and Haq fell too early to make a call. Babar, Zol Zia and Baba impressed me and hopefully will progress.
:two_thumbs_up: But come on a little bit of rubbing in has to be allowed. I don't think I, or anyone for that matter, has gone overboard in this thread :smiley: And if you are honest you can actually see which side of the two were more emotionally charged based on pre and post match reactions :--D

what about the indian tundlers? :hitler:
They got "lucky" as Pak batsmen "threw their wkts" since they couldn't handle pressure of "televised" match :winky: However Indians were used to the pressure of "televised" games and still barely squeaked through. It's clear Pakis are the better team :giggle:
Don't tell me our kids are better than theirs as well! :laugh: Now for the Kiwis. It's semis so they've done their job and are leaving anyway.
Naah, don't say that :nono: They are kids and played great. Let's leave taking shots at the players when they play at the senior level :--D

Their batting is as I expected - can't play decent bowlers when the ball is doing something, and their bowlers other than Zia were nothing great either. IMO Anwar Ali was much better than these bowlers, including Zia, and he hasn't played for intl level so other than Babar Azam I don't expect to see any of Pak u-19 players in the team. But was disappointed by our batting. I expected Chand and Chopra to play like a Test and see off the new ball. Even Baba Aparajth and Smit patel had brain farts throwing their wkts off the last overs from Zia and Adil knowing fully well that the 5th bowler would come on after these two. Lack of brains and common sense from our batsmen really disappointed me.

To be honest not much of what I saw today was inspiring in terms of their international future
Harmeet was a big plus. he showed enough heart and temperament. Let's see what they do rest o fthe tourney but as I said lack of brains and common sense was extremely disappointing.

I didn't do anything even though I was going to. There were only 5 posts in the match thread and I was going to delete SJ's post. Wish I had done it
