| No plans of resuming ties with India: PCB Posted: 17 Mar 2012 10:20 AM PDT
Ashraf on Saturday left for Dhaka to convince the Bangladesh Cricket Board to send its team to Pakistan. “I have no plans to discuss the resumption of any bilateral cricket ties with Indian board officials if they came to Dhaka,” Ashraf said before leaving for Dhaka where he will witness tomorrow’s match between India and Pakistan in the Asia Cup. “There really is no use discussing resumption of bilateral ties because the Indian board has made it clear it has not got approval from its government to resume cricket ties with us,” he said.
The visit to Dhaka is however very important for Pakistan cricket as Ashraf will be meeting with his Bangladeshi counterpart, Mostafa Kamal and discuss the chances of Bangladesh sending its team to Pakistan next month for a one-day series. “The Bangladesh board has said it will soon send its report on the visit of its security delegation to Pakistan earlier this month. We are expecting them to let us know if the tour is on by next week,” chief operating officer, Subhan Ahmad told PTI. Ahmad said that Ashraf’s visit to Dhaka was pre-planned but now in the given scenario, obviously, he would be talking to the Bangladesh board officials. “We have done our homework and even if the Bangladesh board confirms the tour late this month we will have time to put everything into place for the series,” he added. Pakistan has invited Bangladesh to play three one-day internationals in Karachi and Lahore in April and has given a detailed security briefing to the security delegation from Bangladesh in this regard earlier this month. Pakistan is desperate to host a international team at home since no Test playing nation has visited the country since March, 2009 when militants attacked the touring Sri Lankan team bus in Lahore. Ahmad admitted that if Bangladesh board did not clear the tour the PCB would have no alternate plans. “Our next international assignment will then be the tour to Sri Lanka starting in late May,” he said. © PTI  |

| ‘Avoid confrontations in India clash’: Pakistan’s ex-skippers Posted: 17 Mar 2012 07:48 AM PDT
“Whenever Pakistan and India play against each other there is lot of tension and the atmosphere is electrifying and this naturally affects the people on both sides of the border. I would advise players to be very careful about how they behave on the field during the match,” said former great Javed Miandad. He said that any gesture or display of emotion can be taken negatively by the crowd, so the players must be very careful about their conduct on the field.
“Obviously it is going to be a tough encounter and both teams will want to win since they are playing for the first time since the 2011 World Cup semifinal. But emotions must be kept in check,” Miandad said. He pointed out that the conduct and body language of the players during the World Cup semifinal had gone a long way in improving relations between the two countries. Miandad refused to make any predictions about the match, insisting that while India had a stronger batting line-up, Pakistan had the bowling to counter it. “It should be an interesting match but in the end we must remember all the time it is just cricket and a sport and not war,” he added. Pakistan’s former captain, Rashid Latif felt that such matches could go a long way in normalising bilateral cricket relations between Pakistan and India. “People in both countries watch such matches with a lot of interest. I have seen when such high-tension matches are played even the people who normally don’t follow cricket are glued to the happenings.” Latif said players of both teams must remember that how they play the match will have some impact on the overall relations between both nations. “I just say keep all the tension and competition on the field… it must not spill over the boundary line. In the end we all want our team to win but this is cricket and anything can happen.” Latif was of the view that India would have to score in excess of 300 runs to stand a chance of winning the match as Bangladesh had exposed the weak links in their bowling on a flat pitch. Another former captain, Moin Khan said he had always enjoyed playing against India as the competition used to be special. “But otherwise our relations with the Indian players off the field were very good. I hope it is the same way today and even tomorrow. Tensions must not spill over the boundary line. Conduct of players on the field during the match will be watched very closely.” © PTI  |

| India Vs Pakistan | Asia Cup 2012 | Match Preview Posted: 17 Mar 2012 04:31 AM PDT
The Indians have no option but to put it across their traditional rivals to stay alive in the tournament as the shock defeat against Bangladesh has thrown their campaign into jeopardy. The stunning defeat against Bangladesh would have certainly hurt the Indians, especially Sachin Tendulkar whose phenomenal feat of scoring the 100th international ton went in vain. But they have to regroup quickly and put the debacle behind them. Pakistan, on the other hand, have already secured a berth in the final with victories over Bangladesh and Sri Lanka and will be under less pressure unlike the Indians.
The Indians have generally managed to lift their game when they take on their bitter foes and it remains to be seen whether Mahendra Singh Dhoni and his men can upstage the Pakistanis in what promises to be a thrilling contest under lights at the Sher-e-Bangla National stadium. Now that Tendulkar has completed the historic 100th international century after a frustrating year-long wait, the champion batsman will be mentally more relaxed and that could allow him to play more freely. Tendulkar has a good track record against Pakistan and will be determined to make an impact on Sunday. While the Indian batting has done reasonably well in the Asia Cup after struggling on the bouncy Australian tracks, it is the bowling which has been a cause of concern. The pacers — Praveen Kumar, Irfan Pathan, Vinay Kumar — have not been consistent enough in the death overs on these flat sub-continental tracks while the spinners like R Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja have been patchy. The Indians have to quickly sort out their bowling woes as any mistake Sunday could see the team bowing out of the tournament. Despite the inconsistent show by the bowlers, Indian captain Dhoni said he has faith in them and that they would learn from their mistakes. “The bowlers have talent, it is there. They just need to execute plans with consistency. The youngsters will learn more. They will start performing. They felt the pressure in the game against Bangladesh,” Dhoni said. “They (Bangladesh) played better cricket throughout. They began well and capitalised on that. They made sure they spent time on the crease. At the start of the Powerplay our bowlers felt the pressure and crumbled. A a bit more runs on the board would have been better,” Dhoni said. “Bangladesh can play really well on their day, they used the conditions well, their reverse swing bowling was good. And they got the partnerships going.” he said. While India’s top order batsmen have got the runs, Rohit Sharma, who failed miserably during the tour of Australia reently, did not score much against Bangladesh and it would be interesting to see if he is retained in the team. Manoj Tiwary, who did not get to play a single match during the tri-series in Australia, has been waiting in the wings for much too long and the team management could consider him as a replacement for Rohit. Paceman Vinay Kumar had to sit out of the last game against Bangladesh because of a niggle and it remains to be seen if he is fit enough to take the field on the morrow. In case he is not fit, Bengal pacer Ashok Dinda, who was trifle expensive in his second spell, could be retained. Although Pakistan have won both their matches, they have some problem areas as well. The batting has not been consistent enough and they have lost wickets quickly at the top of the order, which they need to rectify. The Pakistani bowling has been quite impressive, especially spinner Saeed Ajmal who has bamboozled the batsmen with his variety. The pacers Umar Gul and Aizaz Cheema have also been among the wickets. Pakistan captain Misbah-ul-Haq knows that the pressure will be squarely on India and can treat the game as a preparation for the March 22 final. Having already booked a berth in the final, Misbah wants his batsmen to show more consistency in order to win the tournament. “We have to be more consistent as a batting unit. The bowling has always kept us in the hunt. Especially, if you have a world class bowler like Saeed Ajmal in your team, its a big edge,” Misbah said.(PTI) Teams: India (probable): Gautam Gambhir, Sachin Tendulkar, Virat Kohli, Suresh Raina, Rohit Sharma, MS Dhoni (c/wk), Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin, Ashok Dinda, Praveen Kumar, Irfan Pathan Pakistan (probable): Misbah-ul-Haq (c), Aizaz Cheema, Hammad Azam, Mohammad Hafeez, Saeed Ajmal, Sarfraz Ahmed (wk), Shahid Afridi, Umar Akmal, Umar Gul, Wahab Riaz, Younis Khan.
