About the game today..

Well, deeply disappointed and saddened at the fact that we lost, especially knowing that Pakistan played extremely good today. I could not believe those chakkas one after the other by Malik and Akmal. Much love and respect for my Green guy Shoaib Malik. He played really well. Will NEVER forget those wickets by Sami! Especially when the wicket came out and when Yuvraj was to do a chakka and then Sami catched it. Some great and proud moments for Pakistanis today from the match.

But...

Here comes the criticisms:

Fielding on the part of Pakistan was better but not good enough to win the match. Pakistan started off pretty good and in fact there were less balls and more scores for India to make. However, fielding failed hence the outcome.

India played okay. Last time they played extremely well against Pakistan. I gave them credit. However, I was a bit shocked at India's fielding and scoring game today. The scoring game only changed after the partnership of Kholi and Dhoni.

Overall, Congrats India!

Pakistan, I love you so much and I must say I'm disappointed yet again but this time I was really expecting something since you guys played extremely well. I saw unity, better fielding and partnership within you guys. However, this was not enough to win. I'm still proud of you my guys! You guys improved. Better luck next time and please win for once for all of the loyal fans of yours, including me!


Lol it ain't that deep...
Well you know what they say, the match could've been fixed...

Let's be fair, Kohli is tremendous. What a player. He seemed to be playing on a different pitch to the others today. He is head and shoulders above anybody else in the India squad, let alone Pakistan squad.

In truth, I didn't think either team was that good. The ball turned well for the Indian spinners, but Pakistan's batsmen just weren't good enough.

I felt they judged length poorly - hardly a surprise given the enormity of the occasion - and were caught regularly on the front foot.

The Kohli vs Amir dual promises to be a battle of the ages, and a real era-defining clash. Kohli's average against Pakistan in T20s - 84.66 - already points to that.

India 11-0 Pakistan. Oh dear.

Well even though every IndiaVSPak match is like a big game it's not like this was the final or anything, we're still in with a shot with plenty of games to go :smile:

Did you watch the match?

Yeah I agree, the score by Pakistan was pretty bad. It should have been at least 150 or so. But only Kholi played well in Indian team. So credit goes to Kholi:colonhash::h:


Yeah credits to him but hes no better than hashim amla or the gayle force

Yeh, I agree. Neither team did that well today. India started off horribly but they caught up at the end. Comparing how Pakistan did earlier this week with todays match, today's score was nothing! Kohli did do amazingly today - and the six at the very end from Dhoni was :yy:

Idk about that

Aus vs Bangladesh - Aus will win
NZ vs Pakistan - NZ will win
India vs Bangladesh - India will win
Aus vs Pakistan - Aus will most likely win unless we pull of something spectacular
Bangladesh vs NZ - NZ will win
India vs Australia - India most likely

So either way NZ will go through and then I think it's between India/Aus
As always Pakistan let me down. :colonhash:

Regardless, great match! Chak de India! :h:

I also made this prediction earlier, I think the final may be between India and New Zealand.

Pakistan could easily have won that match. Their total was achievable, admittedly, but they could've emerged victorious had Kohli not shown he was head and shoulders above any other T20 batsman on the sub-continent.
