I said it before.. Kohli is a top player.. people used to compare him with Umar Akmal.. what a joke... Akmal should take some lessons on how to become a batsman.. Kohli is easily my favourite Indian player..
Comparing kohli with akmal was natural as both the players showed some serious talent and both are young but now kohli has establish himself in "League of extraordinary gentlemens of cricket" and it's just the beginning.
no doubt kohli is a specialist batsman in ODI but his talent doesn't suit him in T20's. He takes time to settle in & in t20's you don't get much time. so, i don't see him performing well in the upcoming T20 Worlcup.
India always perform in asia but everytime they go outside asia they get hammered/ whitewash.
On the other hand pak still wins one or two of their matches outside asia. so idon't see a comparison between ind & pak.
at the moment india has the upperhand on pak in asia but once pak team stabilizes in batting they gonna hit back harder.

Mr. malik
What record are you talking about? Tell me any test match you won in australia in last decade? I know our last year in test match was not very good but that was a dark patch ?
One question to you tell me any one team besides india who was able to defeat aussies in their home when they were unbeatable under the captain ship of steve waugh and ricky pointing?

mr. malik I bet you are going to eat your words? Just wait and watch and see this guy in action? this guy can hit very first ball out of boundary. I've seen it doing so?

well that's not true.
South Africa won a series in AUS, not just a test.
Then recently ENG also beat them and took the Ashes. Put Ricky Pontings illustrious career as captain to an end.
If you talk about Pakistan. Pakistan did white wash ENG just six months ago. PAK drew a series against SA in 2010 and won a Test match against ENG in ENG as well. In fact ENG was never able to White wash Pakistan at home. It's the ODIs format where Pakistan is weak and that is due to lack of match winners.

last decade record of india and pakistan against australia, england and south africa
this is the record of past decade clashes between India and pakistan vs three best teams
you can compare yourself and tell me how bad team india is in test matches?
I know we have bitter memories of last year but that was a dark patch.
But people who we are just flat pitch bullies and your team not plz compare these data carefully and decide
Would have been fairer if you had included last years record as well but anyways...
India does have a dominant last decade than Pakistan, I concede that but as far as competing against AUS, ENG and SA it is really the stretch from 2006-2008 where India outperformed them. AUS was going downhill after the retirement of Warne, Grath and rest and India was up and coming. India made the most of the opportunity presented to them and no qualms about it.
Comparison with Pakistan technically doesn't make much sense. First because Pakistan hardly has any series at home against these teams. The ones it had they performed better, like against ENG in 2005 and SA in 2004. Secondly, Pakistan batting was never their strength in this period and never was the winning factor. It has always been the bowling. Pakistan has won the series at home or abroad because of bowling. At home they have won under most helpful batting conditions, whether it's Shoaib Akhtar of 2005, Asif of 2006 or Ajmal of 2012, Pakistan bowling has won them on batting paradise of sub continent. In comparison, Pakistani batting is as disappointing as it can be and it's regardless of help from pitch and conditions or not. During this stretch, if Pakistan had won in India on flat tracks, it's again because of bowling, whereas in 2005 when India lost to Pakistan in Pakistan, that was again because of Pakistan's bowling and on flat tracks.
Now if you compare the last two years including the tumultuous period post 2010 spot fixing issue, Pakistan's performance has been encouraging. You have to consider the factors that not playing at home, a revamped squad without having the services of talented stars, under the immense pressure of axing from international cricket all together, with no help from Asian block whatsoever (aside SL), and constant bias of ICC; you name me one team who can succumb to those circumstances and came out belligerently successful. That only says one thing that after all the politics played against Pakistan Cricket, we are still there and still competing. The determination to do well is still there and it's just a matter of time for them to raise against the test.

u know what? glad u mentioned that.. a true fan is the one who supports the team not only when they win but also when they loose... after all it is just a sport.. and winning and losing is just like the ups and downs in life.. shit happens.. if u win that doesn't mean u keep the players on ur head and dance and if they loose it doesn't mean u throw them in the garbage..
true fans (indian or pakistani) will always support the team and there is nothing wrong about it.. if u felt bad that this guy did not bash his team when they lost.. it is classy and not trashy.. this is just my opinion..

8-0 thrashing outside Sub continent ????
Now beating INDIA B aka SL!!! And he is over the moon giving statements like they are TIRED OF BEATING and playing with SL ???WTF ??
SL just thrash them in AUS!!!
No harm in supporting your team!
But read these words CLEARLY!! India is going back to the same team of the 90's where they only WIN when Tendkar scores and NoW it will be KOHLI they will only WIN when He will score!!
Yet he is giving lectures to others like he is an AUSSIE!!

except that India didn't win in 90s when Tendulkar scored . It only started happening when Ganguly took over the team.
