pak vs india wc 2019 group match

[Maarkhoor]

We need to keep it simple and play to our strengths,
If we bat first, consolidate with first three and let loose in the last ten overs, If we are chasing, Virat, Dhoni, Jadhav need to unleash their usual. Depending on the conditions, it wouldn't hurt to explore Jadeja instead of Kuldeep.

The top two ODI ranked batsmen are Kohli and Sharma, Bumrah is top ranked ODI bowler and Chahal and yadav in the top ten. To me, the key batsmen against Pakistan would be the top three and Dhoni

If these 4 can keep calm and not throw away their wickets, It should be a good game to watch.

Nice long bating line of India and I can bet with you on that, who will win the toss and choose to bat will won the match.

By the way I heard IAF sending W.C Abinondon to watch this match in order to boost morals of Indian team, Do you know the details.

I am not negative i am depicting the reality here. You got white washed in series with England and before that lost series to Australia, before that lost series to South Africa, what the hell is negative about it? These are facts.

I don't think you followed or watched those series?

The white wash against England was by no means as one-sided as the term makes it sound to be. It was a very closely contested series. Pakistan actually set the record of becoming the first team to score 340+ runs in three consecutive games, which was pretty surprising.

The series against Australia was played by the Pakistani B team. Half the front line players were being rested while it was officially announced before the series that Pakistan was going to use this series to test its bench strength for the world cup. Which we did.

The series against South Africa was actually a bit controversial. The pitches were horrendous, some in the cricketing circle even said that pitches of this nature should get the host team penalized. And then our captain was banned half way through the ODI series for the remainder of it. That pretty much also broke our record breaking T20I winning streak. Regardless, it was a 2-3 loss where one of the matches we lost went the DLS way and the two that we won were very comprehensive victories.

Pakistan always save their best for when they're up against us. They're very inconsistent, nobody's giving them much of a chance but they did come back and beat tournament favourites and the home side, England.

Looking fwd to a good game and hope that damn rain stays the hell away.

India is no problem for us. Overall We have Brilliant track record against India in all formats of game. Just few 4 or 5 loss in worldcup but overall no match with India. Main challange is New Zealand, England and Australia.

Yes like champion trophy. India is not a problem for Pakistan. Pakistan will easily defeat India like it does for last two decades.

can pakistan beat india ? on paper, it doesnt seem so
any thoughts?

Cricket is a game of chance. Ofcourse, Pakistan can defeat India and any other team.

 

[Hiraa]

Depends on which Pakistani side turns up on that day.

 

[war&peace]

Really! Is the reality so hard to grasp?

Mate there are are two ways to see the same glass as half full or half empty. Cricket is a game of chance and the team that plays better on the day wins. On paper things do not matter that much.

What do you mean? I think Pakistan sent only one team..isn't?

I meant their attitude and mentality. If they want to beat India, they will like they did Eng. otherwise we get WI match perfomances.

He meant will the Pakistani Moronic Hippos show up who will by themselves turn an easy win into a moronic loss by repeatedly shooting themselves in the face or will the infamous Pakistani Cornered Tigers show up who will rise to the occasion and destroy some of the strongest teams out there in situations where no one ever gave them any chance.

One has to admit that india have a formidable line-up and have had the upper hand ever since Inzi retired. He was the last jewel of the 90s creme de la creme of Pakistan cricket. The bowling looked promising for a while until Amir decided to over-step a little too much for comfort. I personally feel the semi final in 2011 was played by two evenly matched side but Pakistan was hard done by poor umpiring when Tendulkar's plumb lbw was not given. Drs was not in practice those days. Tendulkar offered another catch when he was still new at the crease but as always our legendary fielding cost us his wicket again. We practically had Tendulkar 3 times in that match. As great as Tendulkar is/was, he was heading towards the twilight of his career. His 80 odd in that match proved to be decisive in addition to some baffling tuk-tuking by Misbah. Misbah was a brilliant test captain/player but he should have quit one dayers long before. There were even whispers that it was infact Zardari who asked Pakistan to 'lose' that match for some diplomacy gimmick or whatever. Shoaib Akhtar being dropped for that match led to these conspiracy theories offcourse. Whatever it was, that was the last evenly match contest between the 2 sides. This current team is good but its too unpredictable for my liking and the indian team is right up there with Eng as the favorites to lift the cup. Personally, i'd be surprised if we pull this one off and immensly proud of the boys but mind says india is gonna win this one as well. For india's son in law's sake i hope he makes it one last memorable match against his susral. He somehow is an india-specialist of sorts, always plays well against them. Lets hope its his swansong.

World cup matches against India is all about handling pressure and expectation of people which India handled better in the past . If you look at overall record then Pakistan is still ahead of India so they have been dominated India in the past in bilateral series. Record in champion trophy is also good ..Its only world cup where they have failed consistently even when they had strong team . India is strong team but no team is undefeatable if you play good on particular day and minimise the mistake in fielding , batting and bowling. Confidence and intent is the key if you are willing to win big matches
