Asia CUP - UNDER 23 Tournament, Singapore


Recommended Posts

Today's match again showed how difficult batting has been to bat on this ground. If they bowl well' date=' even 160 can be defended here.[/quote'] Yes there has not been many big scores at this ground. But you seriouly have to question the mental strength of the pakistani players as well. At one stage they were approaching 100 With only 2 wickets down and the next you see they have lost another 7 wickets without adding even 20 runs. If India bat smartly they should win this comprehensively but it will get tougher in the middle overs. And yes, India bowled quite well.

This has happened to most teams on this ground. Same thing happened yesterday to Afghanistan when they 97/1 at once. Batting is relatively easy when the ball is pretty new even if you may not score too briskly, you can maneuver the hard ball as it comes on to the bat a bit better but as soon as it gets older around 30 overs passes, it gets difficult to rotate strike so then batsmen try to play risky shots and lose wickets. PS: Pak were 103/7. They were 2/88 once in 27 overs.

Yes as I said they were approaching 100 when they were 88/2 and suddenly there were actually 107/9. Lost 7 wickets for 19 runs!

Maybe some credit has to be given to bowlers Even when they were just. 2 down run rate was bad and after that they never let them run away and finally choked them

Yes, no doubt about good bowling. But in spite of that 7 wickets for 19 runs is poor cricket.
