ICC Cricket World Cup 2011

With India's bowling attack, on this pitch/outfield, even 300 will not be a safe total.

Pakistan will have to feck this up big time from here on not to win.

They're in the box seat for me. Especially given HOW we're batting.
 
Its just like I predicted, India are not coping at all with the pressure, adrenalin and expectations from being on home territory. What people have feared all along is happening ... at some point, the batting line up will fail. This is the moment when that theory is being fully tested. Huge responsibility now on Sachin and Dhoni who need to stay there til 42nd over
 
:nervous:

Pakistan wants to hand the game to India.

ICC needs to investigate.

I've said it so often. Great teams need to be able to account for the odd poor batting performances with a class bowling effort. With us, our batting always needs to bat brilliantly to win. That's why I always felt we didn't have it in us.
 
We are pretty pathetic at run chasing so unless there's a major collapse, India'll win comfortably.

Who is this guy? I thought I was pessimistic. I don't know how you think it will be a comfortable win for India from this point on. I mean we only have Reina after this. You have made a comeback and you are in the box seat for now.

The run rate is very healthy.

It's not critical like some are pointing out..
 
He is retiring from ODI's I think after the WC.

These are just rumours. But it would make sense. And makes sense to announce it after rather than add even more pressure. Won't believe it till it's confirmed though.
 
This is what I don't get. We have played their best bowler very well by scoring 37 runs in his 7 overs but throw our wickets away to bowlers who aren't that threatening.
 
Z Khan, MM Patel, A Nehra

thats a l000ng tail

Another reason to have played Ashwin. From all accounts it seems he can bat a bit. Zaheer might be capable of doing something but he last two are cartoons.
