Not gonna happen but just to troll Pakis' date=' we should rest half our side.Endless supply of conspiracy theories would be fun as well.:giggle:[/quote'] Whether Ireland wins or loses against India doesn't affect Pakistan anymore. All Pakistan has to do is beat Ireland. Ind v Ireland game is irrelevant to Pakistan's chances.

I have a feeling Ireland would comfortably beat Pakistan

Resting key players might not be a good option. Our fast bowlers have the tendency of losing rhythm abruptly. Also there's not much burden on their bodies with the schedule that we have in place. Binny could be tested but the issue is that we wont be playing any KOs in NZ. Jadeja is our first choice and he does well against England. He too needs to find form so including Axar would not be feasible.

I am starting to feel India should think of resting Shami/Yadav for the last match. With the lack of intensity that they showed today, it could be necessary to rejuvenate them. The long travel to Hamilton could have also played some role in this

Dhoni did this last time as well... Played Ashwin (a reserve player then) in the last league match, and the QF... and dropped him for the SF and Final... Might do that again this time, to some bench-warmer... Binny or Axar...

I heard that in one of the post match interviews, MS said that the bench warmers can continue to warm the bench in this world cup. :rofl:

Long travel and not much rest and sleep according to Dhoni, yet both the fast bowlers were played, Soon they will be destroyed just like Bhuvi, Bowling non-stop since months in foreign conditions. The impact was evident in today's match with both Shami and Yadav losing 10 km/hr speed and were bowling 130-140km/hr instead of their usual 140-150 km/hr.

All planned...they (Shami/Yadav) will continue to bowl awful against Zimbabwe, but will roar back against Bangbros in QF.
