What a match it was....oh I shall never forget it!!
Perfect, Mind-bowling, yesterday’s India/Pakistan’s match was one of the exciting matches ever
played in the cricket history.The amount
of tension among the players & the viewers was so
high that it was simply impossible to predict who will be the winner until the last ball was played.
The Indian Team:
This is India’s 3rd consecutive defeat against Pakistan & they say the team is number 2 in the
world.......what a big joke,will anyone believe this????? India has lost 4 tournaments in a row
my dear Indian supporters!!!!!
The Lame Excuse: Tendulkar is not playing....what nonsense!If this is the case then Tendulkar
will have to be brought back in the game at any cost otherwise the Australia Series is already
lost!!!
The top Indian batting order,claimed to among the best in the world,is in total disorder.And I
ask you what the hell is this stupid Sewhag doing in the Indian team? Just because he made
300+ in a Test series does not mean he should take his place granted for the ODI’s.As Sidhu
said in yesteday’s Turning point(NDTV 24x7),he had also said it earlier,that if we want Sewhag to play well he should play at 5th or 6th position.
Regarding the bowling department,yesterday it was a one man show.Only Irfan Pathan was
bowling well and it’s only him that the batsmen were afraid of! The others were just time-pass!!
The Indian team is surely missing Balaji & Kumble!!!
India still has a long way to go.........
The Pakistan team:
Nothing much to say as there is no doubt that they are once again at their best!!!Yousuf Youhana just proved that he is still very much a match winning player!! Inzy played well
Shoaib is back in the bowling attack & Afridi’s sixes off Irfan(Pathan v/s Pathan) will be
long remembered!!!!Well done!
Those who watched the entire match properly also got to see Hritik Roshan in red cap,the
commentaters said he was a smart guy since he did not wear a blue cap.....I thought he was
supporting W.Indies...he he he.......
Please comment yr opinions in the comments section,I shall check it!!!!!! Thanks.
