Mohammad Sami to Kohli, Kohli's been given lbw and he does not like the decision!
He walks off with a wry smile and that's because there was an inside edge. >

I can't see Pakistan making it out of their group in the World Cup. They looked rather poor against England during their brief T20 series at the end of last year. I only saw highlights of this match, but was there any explanation as to why Afridi and Shoaib Malik didn't bowl?
Re: 2016 Asia Cup - ketchim - 02-27-2016
After 2 wickets in the 1st over from Amir removing both Openers for DUCKs
Seam was the preferred option : managed 5 wickets
BUT that partnership of UV/Kohli could have used Afridi and Malik

Todays match featuring Bangladesh and Sri Lanka looks to be a fairly even matchup.
The matches so far in this tournament have all been mostly low scoring affairs. I like the fact that these pitches offer something for the bowlers. We saw similar pitches that were conducive for bowling during the Under-19 World Cup.
For me, this is far more preferable than the recent T20 and ODIs in Australia on those flat pitches that favoured the batsman too much. I'd much rather see an even contest between bat and ball, then batsman just teeing off and hitting the ball over the ropes three times an over.

30 % match fee for dissent lbw given off and inside edge :-[

Sri Lanka's form in T20's over the last 12 months has been terrible. They have won just 3 of their 11 matches played. Based on current form at least, they will have a very hard time in defending their title.
