Re: Windies V Ireland - World Cup

Ireland demolished Windies. Gayle pathetic. Took abt 60 balls to score 36 runs. Whereas Irish opener and one down scored at strike rate of about 120.

This philosophy of seeing off the new ball and consuming overs is nuts, I tells ya

Re: Windies V Ireland - World Cup

Another stunning victory by Irish over W. Indies.. They made target 304 look like peanuts.

Now Pakistani board should immediately schedule a series with Irish team to atleast keep playing with someone.. afterall both teams are at the parallel standard now..

Re: Windies V Ireland - World Cup

wake up call for Pakistan...don't take Ireland or Zimbabwe lightly! amazing run chase! they did what most Asian teams can't do.

Re: Windies V Ireland - World Cup

Run chase in NZ isnt that difficult especially considering the weaker bowling of WI. But lets give credit to awesome batting and Irish top order holding their nerves alongwith delivering at a great pace

Re: Windies V Ireland - World Cup

why just pakistan? did india already get a free pass to the finals or something? :confused:

we just won one game. and pakistan typically starts off bad in tournaments and finishes well. stop worrying about them.

Re: Windies V Ireland - World Cup

They have been doing it for last three worldcups:

"Pakistan in 2007, England in 2011, now WI in 2015... Ireland shake up the expected order in their first game" - Cricinfo

Now ICC better give them status of a regular team rather than associate

Re: Windies V Ireland - World Cup

^ India will beat them easily...i've no doubt in my mind. India in World Cup is totally another team for sure...they are all 'pumped up' to win!

Re: Windies V Ireland - World Cup

wah jee wah…intiha hai arrogance kee

i mean, you guys lost everything in the summer including all ODIs and now suddenly India will be a totally different team. :confused:

Re: Windies V Ireland - World Cup

I think India should be worried more than Pakistan. They are pumped up and Ireland has capability to puncture any pumped up team or Tyre.

As for Pakistan, we are not worried about punctures. We have Najam Sethi.
