Cricket: Why are you chirping now mate, you're not getting wickets?

[Chandrashekhar Limit]

Days like these make you wish you never got into the sport in the first place.

I hope these idiots learnt a good lesson today. All this stupid shot selections had to comeback and bite them in the ass sometime. Feel for Mashrafe. He did everything he could and still couldn't help the idiots from shooting themselves in the foot. I hope Hom never sees the cricket pitch again. Absolutely ****ing useless with both bat and ball. The only reason why he keeps getting picked is because of politics.

What a **** feeling this is.

Agreed, mate. I knew this tournament would be brutal but I didn't think it was going to be this brutal. On one hand, I want PAK to trounce Australia but on the other, I want Afridi to just go away forever.

I think India will flatten Australia. The Aussies have never been that great on subcontinental pitches, and India have momentum right now.

Of course, it may just be overconfidence lmao. But I believe in India.

I don't know man. I can see yesterday being a terrible downer as a Bangladesh fan but I think you guys are the next Sri Lanka. I would not be surprised if you guys win the World Cup within the next decade. There is so much talent on that team. I think lack of experience is what got you guys yesterday. But that will just come from playing more.

Personally, I have always been a fan of Afridi, the person and the player. He is out-spoken and is almost never negative about his opponents. He gives credit to the other team when it is due. From experience, I have hated the post-match interviews from India vs Pakistan matches in the past. It is always about, 'we lost the game', 'we did not play well enough', 'the pitch was bad', etc. I loved seeing Afridi and Malik both give the other team credit. Also, he is as dangerous a batsmen as we have ever seen in the limited overs version of the sport. And his bowling is vastly under-rated.

As a captain though, not quite sure he has the smarts to play there. Also, it seems to negatively affect his impact on the field. He would not be the only captain to suffer from this though. Tendulkar is one of the greatest cricket players but he was a terrible captain as well.

So Watson announces his retirement at the eve of a crucial game against Pakistan. Had a pretty solid career though, sad to see Watto go from the Aussie side we still watch him in the IPL and other leagues.

I fully expect the Aussies to trounce us tomorrow. The captain and coach have pretty much admitted defeat.

 

[Hurt]

Waqar Younis has told his players that it may be his last match and he will be handing in his resignation.

What kind of coach does that? Say an NHL coach was about to be fired and the team was on the verge of being swept 4-0. Would he say that to his players? No, he'd make sure the team believes they have a chance to win.

Here, Waqar is basically admitting he thinks that his team can't beat the Aussies. Pathetic.

Although he is right, he should've saved it for after the tournament. Really demoralizing for the players.

 

[darko]

Nah our batsmen will tear apart your B class bowlers. Your bowling lineup is extremely mediocre in T20s.

That Faulkner guy is not too shabby.

 

[Hurt]

That Faulkner guy is not too shabby.

What a disaster Pakistani cricket is. And right when we thought it was all clear with Waqar and Afridi going away, the saga continues.

 

[Six Assets]

That Faulkner guy is not too shabby.

The one thing that'll always make decent bowlers look like stars is Pakistani batting.

Disgraceful 2 tournaments in 2 months.

 

[Shrimper]

Come on England!

Also, annoying reading the Japan story

Pretty ordinary bowling in the death overs by our bowlers through out the tournament but full credit & congrats to India and especially Kholi the man's a pure class and undoubtedly one of the best players on the planet.

 

[Caps Circle]

If Ashwin bowls like he did today against West Indies, Gayle will break his/Yuvi's record for fastest 50. Ffs, that was terrible.

 

[SB164]

No worries though we Aussies will probably still knock India out and join the Black Caps for the semis.

India winning the game in the last ball of the last over really didn't help boosting up their NNR, so even if Aussies were to lose one the 2 remaining games they're pretty much in the Semis.

Had a feeling someone would quote me after an Indian win, no surprises as its very typical of Indian fan base.

Considering how overconfident you were, any fan base would've quoted you. You probably would've quoted my overconfident post if Australia won.

You bragged about an Australia victory for a week and now you look like a fool. This isn't about "typical of Indian fan base" (whatever that means), this is just a reminder that if you act like a cocky sports fan, don't be surprised to get called out when your team loses. Good riddance buddy

Ditto.

Virat Kohli is just too good. It's not fair.

 

[SB164]

Kohli averages 122.83 in won chases during T20 internationals. Absolutely ridiculous.
