***Official*** 2014 Asia Cup

Anyhow the umpiring yesterday was **** as ****.

 

[Jono]

So what's the deal btw, do Pakistan have to bottle it vs. Bangladesh for Afghanistan to have a chance of getting to the final?

 

[Xuhaib]

Apart from Aus and NZ I don't see any team looking good for next year's WC every one else have massive holes in their side would be a good unpredictable tourney also rubbish to call death overs a lottery its more lack of skills then anything else which has been India's undoing in the recent time during the final overs.A 30 yr old Zaheer Khan would have been winning India half of the games which they are losing nowdays in the final overs.

 

[smalishah84]

He can't help it if he's only asked questions about his own team.

No. He isn't only asked questions about his own team.

We look in terrible terrible shape for the WC. Glad Rayudu played a good innings, I wasn't convinced with him at all but he played a useful knock yesterday. Mishra also a big plus but dontbknow how he'll go in Aus. Even bigger plus was Kohli's captaincy. Loved the way he went on the attack when we got a foot in the door. Bodes well for the future I guess

also rubbish to call death overs a lottery its more lack of skills then anything else which has been India's undoing in the recent time during the final overs.

FMD none of you read

 

[Agent Nationaux]

Hope Afghanistan thrash the Lankans.

This is as complete as an ODI attack gets.

two aggressive fast bowlers, one of whom is a tall left-armer.

One tight medium pace bowler.

One attacking legspinner.

A couple of tight fingerspinners.

 

[hendrix]

I don't mean to exaggerate here but this is exceptional bowling. Attacking and disciplined at the same time.

 

[Xuhaib]

I refuse to believe Afridi is human, the picture on the right was five years back while the other one was from yesterday's game it seems he is ageless.

 

[hendrix]

Nabi has just spun 3 deliveries past the outside edge of Sangakkarra and Perera, while having a very good arm ball LBW shout turned down.

And the relentless pressure gets to Perera.

Exceptional bowling.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Mendis will rip Afghanistan apart today

 

[YorksLanka]

very very impressed with the Afghan quicks...so impressive...unlucky for kushal but tbf he gets plenty of luck when he bats so cant complain when it goes against him too...

 

[Arachnodouche]

Lets see minnow basher Kumararara ton up again.

I kind of am

 

[smalishah84]

Afg are doing pretty decent but it might be that the wicket is not very easy to bat on?

 

[Maximas]

The preview said it should be ok, but will get slower as the game goes on

 

[hendrix]

it's turning, and the ball isn't coming onto the bat particularly nicely, but that's also because they haven't bowled many loose deliveries

Probably knows there won't be umpiring gifts and DK freebies in the test series against England. Might as well increase the overall average when possible.
