[NYRB]

Top 5 in Afghanistan have to score the bulk of the runs for them to be a chance. I wouldnt be banking too much on 6 to 11. I know Rashid Khan and Nabi can swing for the boundaries, but wouldnt want to bank on them getting 50s or something solid down the order.

 

[NYRB]

Dirk Nannes the surface is flat looking.

 

[NYRB]

Circumspect start from Afghanistan in the first over, just the 1 off.

 

[Santana]

Looks a bit flat. Afghanistan chould get over 250 here

 

[010203]

Serves yourself right fir challenging Michael Gough, Rohit Sharma!

 

[NYRB]

That was a great call from Michael Gough. Indians and the commentators thought that was out on 1st inspection.

 

[Santana]

Ugh wish we had this pitch on Sunday

 

[NYRB]

Absolutely creamed to the boundary by Gurbaz off Siraj.

 

[NYRB]

Lightning quick outfield here at Delhi.

 

[NYRB]

Great comeback ball from Bumrah to Zadran.

This is what good quality cricket is all about.

 

[akkaps]

First one down.

Really hoping an early night's sleep.

 

[NYRB]

if Nabi is coming in at 5, your know your team is in trouble.

 

[NYRB]

You will get rewarded for good timing of your shots on this ground.

 

[NYRB]

Thakur into the attack for the first time today.

 

[NYRB]

A biggie from Gurbaz for 6

 

[NYRB]

He liked that one off the bat. Stood and adored it.

 

[NYRB]

Its probably a powerplay Afghanistan will be happy with 48/1 after 10.

 

[NYRB]

That 3rd wicket did look plum on first inspection.

 

[NYRB]

Kohli has a stand named after him in Delhi.

I wonder why Delhi never approached him to play in the IPL?

 

[akkaps]

I wonder why Delhi never approached him to play in the IPL?

Delhi chose other localism Pradeep Sangwan over Kohli back in 2008. Since then, RCB have always opted to retain him after each season

 

[NYRB]

I dont think any team in this World Cup would be able to defend 280 against India on this ground personally.
