Always have to see how both teams bat to analyse the pitch. India have 2 spinners so will have to see how Afghanistan get on. Hope they give it a good shot!

The WC has recovered decently after the washouts.
Wanting India to lose? Jesus Christ why do all you guys hate us so much omg.
Can't see Zazai lasting too long here. Not a pitch for hacks.
Not at your age yet, old man. Don't sit on armchairs.
feck sakes, 2 overs and no wickets. Should've picked Arjun Tendulkar.
That's a ridiculous review to strip
fecking margins.
What a ridiculous statement.
Why is Kohli complaining 
Just like the team gets to retain the review for clipping stumps, this should also be allowed as a retain
That 40pct of the ball was pitched online. That a review strip is horrendous in such situations. ValidWhy is Kohli complaining
Yeah but there's nothing the on field umpires can do about that though.
Could have had nice variety too.
Hahaha I think it’s the same all over, tbf. Everyone supports the minnows/underdogs for the most part, unless it’s your side playing the minnows.
Shami should've been in the Indian team from the start. Good bowler
That was a terrible shot, type of wicket you see playing at Sunday league club level
Yep, he was in better form coming in, Bhuvi has done well as well so a shame one of them has to stay out.
Maybe it's easier said than done but after he has suffered through 24 balls he should have realized how hard it is and just tried to rotate strike. Just a couple of balls before he played a simple stroke for nice 2 runs. Such a stupid shot.
Yes but the thinking is that Bhuvi is a better batsman. Not saying that's good thinking though.
Easy pickings so far.
Afghanistan doing it with ease.
Has there ever been a bowler that bowls more wicket taking trash than Pandya?
The thing is Afghanistan doesn't need to take any risks, they just need to play sensibly. India when they batted were under pressure to score 300,400 and tried to play big shots, which became even more difficult in the later overs. Kohli should bring the field in, cut out those singles and make the batsmen take risks on a slow pitch. If India decides to just spread the field, Afghanistan will be more than happy to just take the singles
Nz have been extremely lucky this wc. First they play the three easiest team to start the tournament. And then against Afghanistan rashid got injured and could not bowl. Game against ind gets washed out and now this.
Windies have given up it seems. Gayle bowling pies.
154 runs with 8 wickets and 30 overs? Come on Afghanistan! You can do this
Really hope Gayle hasn’t seriously injured his shoulder in a fecking celebration. Can’t believe we’re facing the possibility of chasing without our two openers.
These two are killing the game for the Afghans, run rate is going up and up.
Afghan don't need to take chances
Just keep it going and get singles
Just keep it going and get singles
Afghanistan will walk this home
Don't know if you are being sarcastic, it's just 5.26 RPO
It will eventually move up to 6, it’s not an easy wicket to even score 5 on. They’re not even scoring 4 runs an over, most have been 1 and 2 runs.
Such brave mountain men. Come on Afghanistan!
Woah. What the fecking feck Aleem.
Meanwhile, another Williamson hundred.
