What a master stroke by Kohli to bowl jadhav. Wheels falling off for bangladesh

Jadhav reminds me of a seasoned Saturday spinner providing no pace to the batsmen and waiting for the batsmen to make the mistake

Bit of a shame to see morgan complain about the pitch. He is one of my favorite players, and he has turned eng into the most exciting odi team around, but this was a little bit lame... there really isn't much of an excuse when a notoriously fragile batting lineup  (from the 8th rank team!) absolutely smashes your gun bowlers.

Also, maybe this is controversial, but surely Broad and Anderson would have been MUCH more difficult for pak to face yesterday?
Andersons is recovering from injury he was injured playing for Lancs before the comp started a few on here suggested Broad instead of Ball as Woakes replacement.

Its been a hammering.

Worrying sign for pakistan is that kohli is in form too now - looked out of touch in the first few games.

Don’t think they’re worried – they are ranked 8th, and have already surpassed all expectations (or lack thereof!). Nothing to lose, really.

I'm embarrassed to think someone with no natural ability like Fakhar is slogging away in the final.

Welcome back And sorry that your Indian team is getting a hammering. Don't worry India still need to bat so long way to go.

The first cricket box was used in 1874.  The first cricket helmet was introduced in 1974. So, it took 100 years for men to twig that their brains were also worth protecting.

Then get a 100 in a major final plus 2 50's

I'd take that

You must be amazing to mock that

Glad you don't play in my league

I believe a country that disgrace the game should be barred from major events, match fixers are the same as dopers

Well that's a different argument entirely to calling an international opening bat who has just got a 100 talentless

If we go to that logic any country where corruption is found in the game should be banned

Wonder how many countries that would leave not many I'd say
