So does McCullum, unfortunately we don't get enough respect out there in the cricket world, that is why we must give them a tournament to remember , not just a quarter final but something that will be etched in their minds for years to come.

Windies have a very high net run rate will help them long way, I am betting on windies because of this to enter semifinals.

We are pretty banged up team. May not be firing in all cylinders. Mash is not 100%. Shakib is not 100%. Riyad is not 80%. Fizz, Saif, Rubel that is the entire bowling core all have niggles. Now Tamim has a wrist scare. He needs a scan. We may have to open with Liton. Facing Rabada and Ngidi. Mushi is also dinged. So who is fit? This is a super long tournament.


Soumya, Shabbir, Miraz and Mosaddek? If you look from a neutral stand point, we don't stand a chance against the likes of Guptil and Co., definitely not against Universe bosses. SA's bowling unit is very scary who can play the short ball game. So penning us for the semis is very hard far fetched decision.

Poor World Cup, teams do not deserve to participate, hopefully they pick up momentum, saffers a real disappointment, lack grit and sense

Pak got 105 but don't forget our 58 at home. Let's be humble!

ভারত অধিনায়ক বিরাট কোহলির মাঠের আচরণকে ‘অপরিপক্ব’ বলেছেন এই দক্ষিণ আফ্রিকান পেসার।..রাবাদার দাবি, কোহলি অন্যকে মৌখিকভাবে আক্রমণ করতে পারেন, কিন্তু অন্য কেউ তাঁকে পাল্টা আক্রমণ করলে সেটি সহ্য করতে পারেন না।

সরফরাজের জন্য এখন বড্ড কঠিন সময়, উইন্ডিজদের বিপক্ষে লজ্জাজনক হারের পর পুরো ক্রিকেট বিশ্বেই চলছে পাকিস্তানের সমালোচনা। সরফরাজকেও সমালোচনা করছেন কেউ কেউ। সমালোচনা করতে ভোলেননি পাকিস্তান সাবেক পেসার শোয়েব আখতারও। তবে তাঁর সমালোচনার প্রেক্ষিত ভিন্ন, তাঁর দেখা সবচেয়ে আনফিট অধিনায়ক নাকি সরফরাজ!

ভিডিওতে বলেন, ‘সরফরাজ আহমেদ যখন টস করতে এসেছিল, ওর পেটটা যেন বের হয়ে যাচ্ছিল। ওর মুখও বেশ মোটা দেখাচ্ছিল। আমি ওর মতো আনফিট অধিনায়ক কখনো দেখিনি। সে মাঠে নড়াচড়ার জন্য সক্ষম না। যখন উইকেটকিপিং করছিল যথেষ্ট কষ্ট করতে হয়েছিল ওকে।’

Well the ball before that was a front foot no ball. So, basically that ball was supposed to be a free hit.

Amir-esque no ball..
From the matchfixing era, and the ****ing umpire still missed it.

A club level umpire would have spotted that.

They had a grudge against us. These ****ers, ICC is piss poor.

^ TV umpire should have a button to notify field umpires these glaring mistakes and correct it. That 1 wicket changed the game.

TV umpires should be looking at that yes.

If a no ball simply notify the on field umpire. How hard is that?
