9 times out of 10, Kamran would have failed. This is just a fluke victory, nothing to be disappointed. Pakistan usually do well on bowling tracks as they do not have any naturally gifted batsman in the current squad. India will do well to bring Ajinkya Rahane in the squad in place of Balaji, who has lost his pace completely.

completely agree with you. That was fluke. Also, look at the full tosses bowled by zaheer, irfan and balaji. They all went for 6. they bowled 6 full tosses, all going for six. That zaheer over of 19 and two overs from balaji that costed 32 runs were the turning point. But nothing to worry we will beat pak in the usual world cup match.
Calling Indian 'fast' bowlers fast is like calling bullock cart a bullet train. They have no pace and hence no variation. Pakistani batsmen were hitting 6's and 4's at will because the bowling was so predictable. We can really drop Zaheer, Balaji and Bhajji. Let Raina, Yuvraj, Kohli, Rohit Sharma and Sehwag bowl 2 overs each. They can surely bowl at par with these fast bowlers.

Wicket was difficult to bat during Pakistan's batting as ball was not properly coming on to the bat. Ashwin was lucky to get wickets with the help of such substandard pitch. It was very poor bowling by all bowlers when Pakistan had required run rate of 12 runs per over during last few overs. One must appreciate matured batting by Shoaib Malik & Kamran Akmal and immature bowling of Indians.

Just one match, its okay even if they lose another couple of more matches. No worries. Our guys will pull off a win at any cost....
zaheer, irfan , balaji, harbhajan these four bowlers did a very hopeless bowling. Such senior players and then also such a poor performance. Hopeless. If india plays with this combination of bowlers india will surely not reach the quarters .
Efficient stroke players like rahane is sitting at the bench and idiots like rohit sharma is getting chances to show his clown face and performance god know if rohit and doni are gays that is why he is there in the team.. reg bowling zaheer, balaji and above that I am shocked for what reason is harbhajan in the team… pls give chance to younger lads Or else you will never get another tendulkars, kumble and dravids
