pak vs india wc 2019 group match

Remember that the main Indian bowler also got injured. This Indian team was not the best they could have fielded for 100 overs. This was a good opportunity for this Pakistani team to beat India.



Superb analysis.
Shoaib akhtar : though he is guilty of pre match benders also - at least he is a true hero of the game who can put in an epic performance to win a game. The problem is, other teams realised you can't rely on heroic performances and actually need to build a professional team to succeed consistently. We remain trapped in this mind set that some hero will save the day every match we play. Snap out of it. No heroes since shahid Afridi - and he was very hit and miss anyway. It is time to actually choose to play with dignity and diligence, not blind hope.
 
I jumped with happiness when we won toss. Nature gave us big opportunity but surprised & shocked with decison to bowl first. That was 2nd jump in shock.

Even if the captain or team management could justify their decision to bowl first, such as overcast or rain, the performance on the field doesn’t back it up. Like Shoaib Akhtar said, it is brainless cricket. There is no planning or thinking. How can you plan and think when you are at the shisha bar?

It was a lackluster and disappointing performance. There was no real intent or desire to win.

What really keeps pissing me off is seeing the shisha bar and food pictures. Pakistan is a county which doesn’t participate in many professional sports. Apart from hockey and cricket we don’t have much else. All the money is spent on cricket. For a cash strapped country like Pakistan that is a big deal. Many fans have high hopes during a WC event. The unprofessional behavior displayed by the players is criminal.

Look at Wahab Riaz next to Shoaib , how he is stairing darro ki bottle. Huqqa or darro ...sath sath
 
Rain, poor facilities & poorest Umpiring in England, less TV statistics animations, boring commentators, less modern, vague marketing, complicating the cricket game and two new white balls are being used ---- it is by far the worst ICC Worldcup ever in England....pathetic pathetic management by a long margin....never seen such boring Worldcup in history.

I don't know what Imran Khan is waiting for. Seems to many flaws in system.

Frankly 92 worldcup under Imran Khan, Pakistan won by chance. It was team like what is is now under Safraz.
 
Probably, but the performance of the Pak team is below par. You cannot blame ICC for our pathetic players sitting at a sheesha lounge and consuming junk food. We lack work ethics and professional attitude on and off the pitch. This needs to change.

Mate the whole Pakistan team is shambles apart from Amir, everything needs to be changed starting from the management and the players, I am certain after the world cup is over expect big changes.

Fitness matter a lot in sports. People mock Indians for being vegetarian but they were more tough physically and mentally. Pakistan missed the run out chance of Rohit which proved to be very costly..if he took some time and throw it at right end then situation might be different. Pakistani players seem to be in England just for holiday trips and they will even laugh after losing while fans are wasting their energy and expecting miracles from average players

Definitely. He does admit shortcomings and weakness of his own team.

The current bowling line up doesn’t even come close to the likes of Shoaib Akhtar. It is a disgrace to mention their names with such prolific players of the game.

This is exactly our problem. One man team and one man performance. It is not how teams win consistently. Modern day cricket requires top quality all rounders from top to bottom. The batting depth of top teams such as Australia, England and New Zealand is top notch quality. India now belongs in this category of teams. Even tail enders win matches for these teams who are very capable batters. Their captains can rely on them as bowlers. Not part time bowlers, but wicket taking options. They all field superbly and are super athletic. We drop sitters. We cannot even catch properly. The desire and hunger to win is like no other. Even during victory areas of improvement are highlighted. No room for complacency.

I am not buying this BS argument that our team is generally not athletic or lacks in other areas. We keep telling ourselves like this is supposed to be normal. It is not. India proved that through hard work and a vision weakness can be transformed into strength.

Our player need to follow Australian team pattern. Where playing for national team is like 8 to 5 job and strick control on there daily routine and fitness. Every player show up daily in the practice and managment keep eye on from food to medical fitness. No excuse .
 
Bhabi bhi sath hain. Kafi enjoy kia hoga trip. Trip hi hoga, baqi qom gai tail lyny.
In lantion ko daikh ker mujhe aik or Lanti yad aagaya : Yahya Khan, yahan Pakistan doob raha tha, or wahan woh Sahab sharab or shabab k sath mast tha....
They can drink visky, eat drugs, night clubs with prostitutes or whatever. But not in match day. No wonder they didn't field well. They were not able to throw ball on wickets just few centimetres away for runout . Our players were sleeping. Even they were thowing ball in wrong direction. One of the reason we missed runout. This happens when you don't sleep well.

1992 team had ik, wasim and inzy. Always have a chance of a miracle with them in the team. Tell me what miracles are possible with this team?? There is no comparison.

Professional attitude and discipline are needed when heroes are unavailable. We have none of the above.
