ICC WORLD CUP 2023 DISCUSSION THREAD!

India VS Pakistan

This would be the second time that these two teams will be facing each other this year and in this tournament. Pakistan is a far better team than the Indian team. They have been excellent in both batting and bowling, although the fielding is not up to the mark. India has been struggling both in bowling and batting. In the last match against Nepal, they were bowling like a bunch of amateurs who were trying to play in gully crickets. They batted really well against a weak bowling side but were struggling when they played against Pakistan. I think Pakistan has a better chance of winning today's match still the level of uncertainty is always a factor that plays an important role against these two teams.

Agreed, the uncertainty always continues with these two teams. Based on the way India played in the previous match against Pakistan, it looks like Pakistan have got higher chance of winning. Most of the experts had mentioned, India somehow escaped and now it have got an opportunity. This time there can be small changes in the squad. In the previous match against Nepal Rohit Sharma played well whereas he struggled against the Pakistan left hand bowlers. Within few hours the match will start and today the weather condition is perfect in Colombo. We can't be sure of the nature, it can change anytime.

I will keep the Pakistan team ahead in this match. Because we are seeing very good performance from Pakistan recently . Because this team is in very good form. I don't see any weakness in batting and bowling.  Almost every batsman in the team is doing well. A few days back, the team was completely dependent on the performances of babar azam and Mohammad rizwan. But now this problem is solved . The performance of Pakistan's other batsmen is also quite good now. On the other hand  the performance of India's batsmen is erratic. Their bowlers are also not able to play consistently well. For these reasons, I will favor the Pakistan team in the match between India and Pakistan. I guess Pakistan will win.

[synchronym]

Pakistan will face arch-rivals India in the high-voltage match of the Asia Cup Super Four in the afternoon. But before such an important match, the man in green got a big bad news. Australia topped Babar Azam's team and topped the ICC ODI rankings. Just before the Asia Cup, Pakistan whitewashed Afghanistan in a three-match series and topped the rankings. He continued his streak by defeating Nepal in the first match of the Asia Cup. But in the second match against India, the match was abandoned and there were no points. If they can defeat India in the Super Four match, Ajid's top will be back at the top of the rankings in less than 24 hours. In that case Pakistan's rating point will be 122.

Whenever there is a match between India and Pakistan , there is a frenzy before starting the match .The same question is Begin raised everywere that which  team has the heaviest weight.But before that it is important to know who is the King of Asia. I think Pakistan performance in the Asia Cup this time has surprised everyone because they are winning the match by releasing their performance in a different way in every match. And Pakistan will win this match against India too .

[Bureau]

Just checked the betting odds, Pakistan are the favourite for theis match. As far as I have seen the match between these two teams are always unpredictable. It is always a pressure match and the team that is able to cope it wins the match. Current performance of the Indian team is not at it's best. They are seen struggling with bowling and batting. The opening batting pair looked clueless in the first match with Pakistan.

While Pakistan bowling attack has been all around. Every bowler in this team has taken wickets and have been precise with the line and length. Their batting looks a little bit shaky but the lower middle order has always come to the rescue. It won't be easy for the Indian team to defeat them. Above all I hope that the rain should not interrupt this match.

[JSRAW]

KL Rahul walks into the Playing XI without any fuss and an excuse is Iyer is struggling with back spasms . The dude surely has everyone's controversial pictures, including selectors, Dravid, Rohit and even Kohli. 

Having said that, he's batting in the middle order so it should be fine as he did perform quite well there, fingers crossed lol.

[Cheema02]

Pakistani Captain Babar Azam won the toss and opted to bowl first against India in the Super Four game of the Asia Cup 2023 at Colombo. India made 2 changes in the squad Jasprit Bumrah and Kl Raul in playing 11 and Pakistan playing with same against Bangladesh with 4 pace bowlers. The previous group-stage match between Pakistan and India was called off due to Rain. India all out in score of 266 in 48overs. Pakistan bowlers showing great performance early pickup wickets Shaheen Shan Afraid, Haris Rouf and Naseem Shah. In today match I think Pakistan will win because they have quality fast bowlers but India have also good batting line. I hope today we see a full result match.

Pakistan vs India third match of Super Four will be played today, Pakistan has decided to bowl the opening and India will bat. Today's match is a must win match for Indian team, today is India's first Super Four match so they will try hard enough to win the match. Pakistan and Sri Lanka have equal points in the table points and they are at the top whereas if India does not win today's match then they will have zero points. And today's match between India and Pakistan is sure to be a tight one as both teams are strong enough so it is very difficult to say which team will emerge victorious. However, if Pakistan can provide good bowling today, India's batsmen will definitely be under pressure and will not be able to score too many runs. We have seen earlier that India lost the Asia Cup match against Pakistan so if Pakistan can play well today then they can beat India in today's match. But Indian team will not give up so easily today because they have to win the match today or lose points so Indian batsmen will try enough to increase the runs today.

Match have begun and as expected Rohit Sharma have begun to struggle against the lead bowler of Pakistan, Shaheen Afridi. 1^st over ended with a six. First four overs is going to be real struggle for Indian team. If the match have been conducted in Pakistan or India, the ground could've been packed with the audience. The ground is empty.

Indian both openers prepared well for Pakistan best bowler Shaheen shah afridi. Shubnam gills is in full attack mode and boundaries are coming for shubnam gill. Today gill batting is totally different from previous and look like he is easily read the Afridi and playing where he want to play. Naseem shah bowling is impressive, the pitch is in the favor of him. he is bouncing the ball and Sharma is looking in the trouble to face naseem shah. These two batsmen are very dangerous. Pakistan need breakthrough here otherwise we will see 300 + score because lots of batting is still back after these two.

Today's India vs Pakistan would be preview for the final match. It doesn't necessarily would be indicative of the definite winner for the finals or a better team but we would see what's their pros and cons are and how they handle the pressure.
India though struggling on most balls is hitting boundaries here and there relieving pressure and keeping the run rate above 6. If Pakistan won't be able to take a couple of wickets till 20th over, they'd be seeing a target around 300.

Pakistan won the toss and chose to field because of the pitch condition and they were not able to grab the opportunities offered by India in the earlier stages and now India went on to score a century partnership, but now they have lost their openers in quick succession, Pakistan needs to contain the run flow, if not India will score above 330 runs and probably win the match.

[Bureau]

India had a terrific start, both opening batters were hammering the ball everywhere on the ground. Rohit Sharma started very shaky, at one point he had only 10 runs after facing 24 balls. Gill on the other end was too agressive in the meantime and was taking care of the scoreboard. Then Rohit too become agressive but got out because of beautiful catch taken by faheem. Gill followed him with a lose shot.

Pakistan is back in the position to take control of the match. The wicket is not helping the bowlers at the moment. Virat is out batting and if he continues then it won't be easy for Pakistan. They would be focusing in getting his wicket from now on.

[Compromise me]

The waiting is over and the match has started.
Pakistan win the toss and decided bowling.This time Pakistan has made a big mistake by choosing to bowl.
Because It is said that in the game of cricket, the team that bats frist  in Colombo pitch has  a better chance of winning.Most captain  perfer to bat  at Columbo pitch by wining th toss .60 match has been  palyed on this pitch in Colombo, of which  33 match have been won by the team that batted first.And this time I see more chance for India to win .And it is also being said that there is an  80% chance of rain .

You are right the match has started and at the moment it is well balanced. Earlier Pakistani bowlers were getting hammered due to the Indian opening pair. While I watch the match and write here, Pakistan is back into the game. Both Shadab and Haris are able to stop Rahul and Kohli from opening their hands. Rahul is looking good as whenever he gets a loose ball he hits it for a 4, while Kohli looks to be struggling at the moment. Luck has been favouring the Indian batters a lot today and at the same time the rain gods too. The match is evenly positioned for now, unless the present batters go after the existing bowlers. The current run rate is still above 6 percent. There was a time when the Indian team run rate was 7.5.

Edit: I jinxed it! We now have rain interruption. 

[rojan]

In the Pakistan vs India team match, India team came to bat. Scored 147 runs in 24.1 overs. India has lost 2 wickets so far. But the match is off due to rain. Once the rain ends, the match between these two teams is expected to start very soon. But  Had it not rained, a very beautiful match could have been enjoyed between the players of the two teams. India team batsman Rohit Sharma was dismissed for 56 runs off 49 balls. Shubman Gill was dismissed for 58 runs off 52 balls. These two batsmen of the Indian team batted very well. Now  It remains to be seen how well Virat Kohli can bat. Looks like Virat Kohli can bat well in today's match.

[JSRAW]

So far in this edition of the Asia Cup India and Pakistan faced each other twice and the former group batted first both times.

1st match - 48.5 overs
2nd match - 24.1 overs

And Pakistan has yet to bat, that's what we used to see in gully cricket. Balla mera hai toh batting sirf main hi karunga.

This is so true in South Asia. But today Pakistan are definitely not looking to bat rather they must be happy with rain. Just 2 wickets down and India scoring with 6 Runs per over in 25 overs. Defiantly they will be looking to give a target over 300 runs today. The batting that collapsed in first match is very much stable today.

India are playing brilliantly for 147 runs in 24 overs and have lost only 2 wickets. If they play like this, they will give Pakistan a target of 300+ runs today. Pakistan was very good against Bangladesh and beat Bangladesh but coming up against India it looks like they will lose badly. Because their bowling performance is very poor and they are going to get a big run target. And after getting a target of big runs, the chances of the opposing teams losing the match always increases. So I don't see much chance of Pakistan winning the match. India are very likely to win the match
