Re: 2nd ODI: India v Pakistan at Mohali - Nov 8, 2007
we await some1's analysis of the indian team with marshmallows
I can see why you are having an "orgasm".
Winning with just 1 ball to spare....does it indicate a big difference in performance of the two teams.
OR did you mean that I was wrong about Afridi...and he is really a sensible cricketer.....don't ruin it for yourself....this is not the last match Afridi will play.
Re: 2nd ODI: India v Pakistan at Mohali - Nov 8, 2007
You team won with just 1 ball to spare and you say it was a pathetic display by Indias. Come on man.
India did well to score 321.
Call me a spoil sport...but a bit of your victory can be attributed to Ian Gould's incompetency.
As for India's performance, I am only upset by Zaheer's bowling and the overall fielding. That's it.
Some1 India played really well. Both the team should be proud of their performance. Dont ruin it by being a spoilsport.
As far as Gould goes, there was just one decision. What about the 3 decisions which went againat Pakistan in the first ODI? C'mon this happpens everytime.
Re: 2nd ODI: India v Pakistan at Mohali - Nov 8, 2007
It may be a little premature for me to say this but Malik's captaincy hasn't really impressed me thus far - although more active in the field than his predecessor, he still lacks that creativity of a dynamic leader.

Well he won't remember that...its only when Pak wins...he is acting like the fans on the ground.
Re: 2nd ODI: India v Pakistan at Mohali - Nov 8, 2007
Congrads to everyone.
what a great game of cricket. superb batting by Younis Khan and good support by Misbah. finally Afridi showed that he has matured. great win for Pakistan. should give them a lot of confidence.

I personally think he hasn't had lots of matches to deal with. Just give him some months and let us then judge about what his capabilities while being a Pak Team Captain.
Re: 2nd ODI: India v Pakistan at Mohali - Nov 8, 2007
okay i just regained consciousness
Some1 seriously man, all your explanations for why Pakistan won with 1 ball to spare are a bit childish and whole umpiring thing Gawd get over it! every team has been on the short end of that, it happens its part of the game. Pakistan played better today than they have in the last few games, and that’s that.

I'd say that all due to the fact Pak fielding plus the players that are being selected who could not give him break through....such as Rao Iftikhar and Akmal.
Re: 2nd ODI: India v Pakistan at Mohali - Nov 8, 2007
I was talking about your crowd behaviour and lack of sportsmanship.
Whats up with this "sportsman" thingie.
DId the crowd attack the Pakistani players or something.
I mean, come on.....if you love your country and your team immensely...its a normal human response to be upset about the loss. Sorry , but 1 billion people in India are not Cricket Intellectuals like yourself....they come to field to be entertained and to see their team win....not to appreciate nuances of Cricket.
Re: 2nd ODI: India v Pakistan at Mohali - Nov 8, 2007
BTW I'm surprised you guys think afridi did anything extraordinary. Any other chimp with a bat will do exactly the same thing, given so many balls to play, so many wickets to follow and so few runs required.

Being upset about a loss is one thing, letting out your frustations on others is another (bad) thing.
