Amazing finish to the game but Pakistan bottled that massively and Babar really messed up leaving Nawaz with the last over.

With comments like that and emoji it�s no surprise the forum is dead half the time

Sorry, thought the laughing face emoji would show it was intended to be light hearted. Obviously not. Was just confused over how you'd know they loved their Aus GNs that was all? Are you close to the team or the players?

But to comeback to your point on why the forum is quiet. There used to be more interaction with sponsors, posts about batmaking and established batmakers giving valuable insights. Unfortunately, they seem to be driven away at times.

What an innings by Kohli, definitely didn't think they were winning that!

Yeah I think he was using Oz made MRF... made the difference or Nawaz bowling a shocker... get rid of Nawaz!

I said to my family literally with Nawaz bowling at the end we were going to lose... the groan when he came on...

Only saw the first 20 overs and thought Pakistan had a decent total to defend. Especially after a tough start with it hooping around early on. Sounds like a great watch tho!

You may have not seen the videos on social media of the factory visit of the pak players

I have a few Pakistani friends who know a couple of lads in team

I am an Indian supporter myself

What a match! Kohli's innings has to be up there with one of the best ever in T20s if not the best ever. Shows the class of the man to do it so consistently at the top level

Really can't stand him, arrogance on legs.... but you simply have to respect the innings!

Completely disagree with your comments about Nawaz! We have such a short term memory. One game and we start blaming match winners. Whether it is Kohli, root or Nawaz. Everyone has off days. We are human after all.

Pakistan should have bowled the last few balls under arm and said they weren't cheating just following the laws of the game...

That was an unbelievable innings from Virat! Sublime batting. It was a chanceless innings. Vintage Kohli!

Poor Nawaz getting slammed cos of poor captaincy. Babar could have bowled him out earlier. Also, not sure I agree with the logic of Rizwan standing back which must have also played on Nawaz's mind. Rizwan should have stood up and let Nawaz bowl his normal left arm spin. The boundaries were decent sized so there would always be the chance of a mishit. Also, I doubt he would have bowled those no balls if he was bowling his usual.

Very strange decision to bowl a spinner last over but I suppose when it's that huge an occassion it could get to anyone.

He gambled - that they�d have 25+ to defend last over but the time it got that far - and lost. He knew fine what he was doing, but the 18th and 19th overestimate weren�t good enough.

Anyone criticising him should at least understand the decision making process.
