Shoaib Akhtar's reaction on Star Sports 3 after they played the tune of Mauka Mauka
Before when it looked like India would choke we actually would. Nowadays it happens far less often.
Afridi is such a poor, poor captain.
Sad reflection of the state of our country.

Primarily due to Kohli and Dhoni. The rest of the middle order is a joke. Need Rahane in there.
Raina used to be so reliable and dependable. But he hasn't been in form.
Kohli is a fine player, but Dhoni should take his fair share of credit. Very good captain. Especially from the Dada crowd.
Dhoni has been the best captain in the history of Indian cricket. I don't think there is any debate about that.
There's a lot of hate for Dhoni though, especially from Kolkata and Mumbai.
Why?
I'd put it down to ignorace, but a lot of Ganguly fans are genuinely angry about Dhoni being a better captain than Ganguly. Some of his hate is driven by his association with CSK and Chennai. He's adored in Chennai though. My brother in law is considering getting a Dhoni tattoo
feck those Ganguly supporters. Bunch of idiots. I have never seen a batsman with lesser footwork than fecking Ganguly. My God he was terrible to watch. He looked like he could get out any delivery. The words elegant and Ganguly should never be in the same sentence.I'd put it down to ignorace, but a lot of Ganguly fans are genuinely angry about Dhoni being a better captain than Ganguly.

I will poison your mishti doi mate
Do you have normal curd anywhere in Kolkata? I searched for curd all the way from Ruby Hospital to Koikali but only got misti doi FFS
What the feck is a mishti doi?
We do, but rarely in the shops. It is made at home mostly. Always a next time, and I will be glad to host you then

Sweet curd, dessert of the gods. And something to pour on your head
Next time I come to Kolkata, I'm staying at your place. No hotels and guest houses.
How could you possible argue Ganguly is a better captain than Dhoni? That is no debate no matter how curd is poured on my head.
Let's debate on how to pour the curd. Would you want it watered down like a running egg or would you want it thick and sticky. Either way it would taste heavenly. Mmmm doi
I like most of what Kolkata threw at me, except chaai and mishti doi
Either way sounds good to me. I would just drink it all up.That's just stupid generalization. You must have hung out with the wrong jingoist crowd. No one 'hates' Dhoni.
Well it could very well be. I can only tell you what I've experienced.
Hes good enough to carry India this tournament. The bowling is actually good (so far) which is a nice change.
Gotta love Kohli's temperament and attitude. Pricks like Rohit could learn a thing, or ten.
I am the first one to criticize flat tracks, T20 cricket or our ordinary batsmen (bar Kohli) but that wasn't a good wicket. A good wicket shouldn't be turning square from ball one. Any pitch that is loaded in favor of either the batsmen or the bowlers cannot be considered a good wicket.
People on here were saying net run rate doesn't matter due to the head to heads. But Dhoni himself and other pundits were talking about it last night. What gives?
Will come in, in case of no result/ties I guess?
I'll put my money on Dhoni and the pundits not having a clue about the rules.
Looks like I was wrong. It's NRR first and then H2H. Weird that some of the commentators were calling it the other way round.
Can't find anything on the ICC Website (what a terrible site)

Put us in a sticky situation then. We could win all our games and still get knocked out.
His captaincy was poor yesterday. Yuvi and Raina should have bowled a lot more yet we were giving bang average medium pacers like Bumrah and Pandya overs after overs.
Yeah, it is NRR and then H2H. Thought everyone knew this ? I saw it on cricinfo a few weeks ago.
Calling it poor is an understatement. It was criminal that Ashwin didn't get his full quota on that pitch. Raina allowed only one over, in which he gave only 4 runs and took one wicket, was equally stupid.
One thing I would disagree with, Bumrah is not bang average. He will be a very good weapon for us in limited over formats.
Wait, dear friend, wait. Perhaps till the time he retires, it's never too soon to heap praise on Indian pacers.
Burmah will get a few injuries with that action.
