Our bowlers cannot get wickets on these featherbeds being prepared for the asia cup. Chawla looks very ordinary and bowls more wrong'uns than actual leg spin. Irfan is coming of injury and his bowling is weak. He is a liability in the attack. The batsmen played audacious and immature shots to get out when on top. They did it in Bangladesh tourney also and lost the upper hand. Yousuf Pathan has done nothing in ODIs till now. the guy seems to want to hit a six every ball. The whole team has to woken up as they are wasting their talents playing like this.
Runs were for the taking at karachi, a goldmine that remained uneatrhed to its fullest for india. Dhoni and Sharma both got their initial going but Dhoni's procastination to make the most in final overs turned out to be an idiotic strategey. Where dealings should have been in boundries and sixes they resorted to ones or twos. Dhoni showed the height of indecisiveness to cut loose. It was really unbecoming of dhoni. He is the real culprit. all of us expected 350 on the card but.......thankx to pathan to salvage indian innings to some extent
If India loses to Sri Lanka today and Pakistan defeats Bangladesh tommorrow, Pakistan will reach the finals. Net Run Rate will not be taken into account. The rule is that if teams are tied on points then the criterion that will determine who goes through to the final is most wins in the Super Four round.
Bringing big names in to this game will not better our side, cuz whatever it might be you would not better a bowling by getting another extra batsmen. Said always “Indian bowling was and is pathetic “ This team is good and the only thing we have to concentrate right now is on Bowling.
