ASIA CUP March 2012 - Discussion Thread
India embark on a 3 game group stage to face their Asian friends (or not!) in the once-in-two-years tournament, The Asia Cup. All matches taking place at the Sher-e-Bangla stadium in Mirpur, Bangladesh.
India will face:
- Sri Lanka (again) on March 13, Tuesday. / Ind won by 50 runs
- Bangladesh (hosts) on March 16, Friday. | Ind lost by 5 wickets
- Pakistan (arch-rivals) on March 18, Sunday. | Ind won by 5 wickets
And if they end up top two, they'll be in the finals. Can the Men in (Light)Blue put up a solid performance? They are the defending champions of the tournament, having won the last edition in 2010.
The squad: MSD (capt), V.Kohli (vc), S.Tendulkar, S.Raina, Rohit Sharma, G.Gambhir, M.Tiwary, Y.Pathan, I.Pathan, R.Jadeja, R.Ashwin, Rahul Sharma, P.Kumar, R.V.Kumar, A.Dinda

Ticking along slowly. cannot see them gettin a bonus point at this rate.
Nice indicommentary ticking dude. I am in train, nearing lucknow
Should have, one run counts
Great
Bhai, great commentry goin on
Rohit to the crease. nearly stumped n leg before already in 3 balls.
Super delivery from Ajmal. but Tendulkar not out of crease. nothing to worry of.
playing well now.... 98/1 in 15 overs. NRR n RRR quite similar n kept in check with good aggressive n sensible batting so far.
Sachin playing risky. not needed presently. Come on India. I still blv. play up & play smart.
target 330. it is not easy. :( but we don't need to look far for inspiration. Chase against Lanka in Australia... under pressure.
Ramiz ji... keeping Afridi quiet is not worthy of praising in present context. :-/
unfortunate. i hope he is okay. Ramiz says India can be happy. Dunno for what tho.
lol, Rameez was signing praises of MSD and he gave an unnecessary over throw!
Hilarious commenting. Nothing funny abt the score or Pakistan batting tho :-(
Rohit n Kohli had crashed into each other going for the ball. lucky both are ok.
