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
20-3-2012: India are now out of the tournament.
22-3-2012: Bangladesh v/s Pakistan in the finals.
Reason: update
India are setting the score, Sri Lanka win toss and wish to chase.
India: Tendulkar, Gambhir, Kohli, Rohit S, Raina, Dhoni, Jadeja, Irfan, Ashwin, Praveen, Vinay.
I seem to recall India losing the match
After a year Sachin hits another ton. And India again lost the match. I am just wondering what thoughts would be going thru his mind.
Hope Sachin can get his 100th century against Bangladesh
@ Vinay, Too optimistic ........ But it would be really great if he can pull it in that match ......
Today's Favorite for me is Sri Lanka ...........
My team for tmrws match v/s SRI LANKA.
Tendulkar, Gambhir, Kohli, Raina, Tiwary, Dhoni, Yusuf, Irfan, Ashwin, Praveen, Dinda.
Ok. Who 5 bowlers then? Irfan opens bowling with Dinda and bowls 10 overs each. Only Ashwin left as full bowler if you bring Rohit instead of Praveen. So 20 overs btwn Kohli, Rohit, Yusuf and Raina? Is that a good option against Lankans?
lolI know Leo. I do watch Cricket
Hahahaha. I do that too. I multi-task
MultiTasking has become a feature of all computers since many years!
