Ind-Pak about to start.
Asia Cup T20 2022
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
Karthick over pant?. Given the current form of Pant seems ridiculous.
Rahul, Rohit and Kohli at the top as well.
Horrible review.
Rough start for Pakistan
Will this be another tournament where chasers win all games?
Pakistan have shat the bed here.
The struggle with the short ball is a big concern ahead of the T20WC. Poor performance.
India should chase this down without much difficulty.

The last pair added a few runs to make this interesting I think. Might still be a close one
Hope so, if only for the watch. Without Shaheen, I don’t think Pakistan have a real chance though.
I swear Pakistan drop Kohli in every meeting.
Kohli looks like he will get out every ball.
Doesn't look like India want to win this either
How have India turned this into a 10 an over chase?
Shit top 3
spent a year testing and brought out a classic from the archives when it mattered
Very strange decisions by Dravid I have to say. Backed Ishan as backup choice for ages and then dropped him. I am presuming because he now is set on DK as the finisher. Which is bizarre in itself since both Hardik and Jadeja can finish. Jadeja at 4 also seems to be answer to not having a line up with 6 RHB up-top! Hooda has done well with his opportunities but tough to fit him in this late in the cycle.
I expect pressure to now build on KL as well before WC if he does not hit form.
Watch Fatman blame bowlers for leaking 15 extra runs if we fail to chase this. Pathetic
Game over. Congrats Pak. Sack Dravid Retire Kohli
The top 3 will remain the same for the WC irrespective of the form. Nobody in the management has the guts to drop KL or kohli.
KL will be dropped if he keeps performing this badly. No chance they can justify keeping two out of form batsmen in him and Kohli if it comes to that.
Think you’re being a bit harsh. Drop Kohli and play Rishabh. It’s instantly a much better team. Rohit is the other problem but he’s captain..
India should still win but this is closer than I expected
How can he barely walk but still bowl like that? 
I really don’t think he should be bowling. We already have enough injuries with the fast bowlers.
I agree I would drop Kohli ahead of KL. Kohli should not be in this team, it can not be clearer but yet it won't happen and he will definitely play the WC and then retire from T20Is. It is repeat of Dhoni and 2019 WC all over again. So given that either Rahul hits form and plays in aggressive manner or you need to drop him. You can't carry two batsmen in top 3. That's before taking into account that Rohit has not been in his peak form for a good time now as well but at least he rarely prods about.
I don't follow cricket too much, but wasn't Jadeja absolutely plumb lbw.
Ball pitched outside leg stump. If that happens, it cannot be LBW.
Jesus, ICC absolutely hates bowlers doesn't it.
A rare close game between these two.
Some shot to win it. Good competitive game. Shame they never play an actual series.
Pakistan need to work out how to play the short ball. The injuries with the bowlers is becoming a big concern.

Laboured win in the end. Rest Hardik till WC now
On today's showing, don't think either of these will win the WC.
Pakistan's fitness levels seem to be stuck in
1990s. How the feck do you cramp up in a T20 game bowling four overs?

Hardik pandya is our only hope in wc. Jadeja pandya pant is probably the only batting we have.
Not a bad tactics considering his form
.KL Rahul scored 36 off 39 against... Hong Kong
1 run required and the bowler (a spinner!) bowls a no ball
Ind-Pak again on Sunday then.
Extras the top scorer for the innings
