22nd Match - India v Pakistan

[Grasshopper]

Injuries are taking a toll however.

Can I blame IPL?

Yeah, right. Your entire top order could bat one-handed in the Final and still win it by the length of the straight.


(And I'm only half kidding. Terrific side.)

I've handed out enough infractions on this now. Stop.

KL Rahul isn't all there on the field. I've seen him make embarrassing gaffes fielding in all three matches now. I think he involuntarily drifts off in the middle of tense situations and it leads to mistakes in his game.

Tbf yesterday's was anything but a tense situation

There should be a 24 hour anarchy period once a year like in the movie 'The Purge' where there are no posting rules on the forum, no infractions. Would help clear the bad blood

I request this to be during the weekend though. So that people get enough time to read through all the bad blood posts and understand the context.

Bhuvi's injury was a blow; but it is compensated by a big plus: Kuldeep, at long last, seems to have regained his confidence.

 

[trundler]

Yeah Kuldeep is now looking like the best left arm spinner around, ahead of Shakib and Mustafizur

 

[ankitj]

Mustafizur left arm spinner?

Hangover still present, spent all night celebrating . Crazy crazy scenes around UK of Indian fans celebrating. Seen so many videos of Thousands of India fans who went into the streets to celebrate in Leicester, Southall, Manchester, Bham, Coventry, Leeds, Wolverhampton.

But the gulf between the 2 teams is too much now, who would get into Indias ODI team from pakistan? Babar Azam at 4 instead of Rahul, who else? Amir for Bhuvi would weaken the lower order batting.

England v India final looks likely. Great world cup so far really enjoying it, hopefully there will be a couple of upsets though to create a good battle for 4th place. This week I am going to NZ v SA, Australia v Bangladesh, India v Afghanistan . I know the weather can be hit and miss but with how multicultural UK is it makes a great to see so many "home" matches being created like today with Bangladesh.

Not the best reply to a post asking you to improve your reading comprehension

Ha ha. I totally laughed out loud in office on reading this post.
