Sachin out at 52 as Pakistan make strong comeback

India lost second wicket of Sachin Tendulkar at a time when India almost appeared dominating the match.Younis Khan took the catch of Sachin at 53 off the ball of Saeed Ajmal in 20th over.Kohli was playing at 73 with India at a total of 133 when Sachin got out.The first Indian wicket fell in first over, yet Kohli and Tendulkar had placed their team in strong position.Tendulkar and Kohli made the advantage appear transient by taking the run rate to 6.95 an over, above the required rate.Pakistan skipper Misbah once again surprised all, this time by taking off Hafeez despite him taking the wicket in the first over.His replacement Aizaz Cheema received a lot of bashing from the Indians, yet the skipper continued with Cheema.India were 98 at end of over number 15, with one wicket down. Tendulkar was playing at 47 and Kohli 45.Misbah-ul-Haq won the toss and decided to bat in last Asia Cup league match against arch-rivals India at Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur.India made one change in their playing eleven, replacing injured Ravindra Jadeja with Yusuf Pathan, while Pakistan brought Wahab Riaz in place of Sarfraz Ahmed.For Team India, it was supposed to be a stage rehearsal for the final, but not anymore. A defeat against Bangladesh has come as a shock for MS Dhoni and his boys and now they are up against a resurgent Pakistan looking for revenge.Pakistan have already secured a berth in the final with victories over Bangladesh and Sri Lanka and will be under less pressure unlike the Indians.It is the Pakistan bowling attack that is making them look formidable in this tournament. Umar Gul is the spearhead with some decent back-up in the form of Aizaz Cheema, who won the Man of the Match award against Sri Lanka.The Indians, on the other hand, have to quickly sort out their bowling woes as any mistake could see the team bowing out of the tournament.The teams have met in two crucial encounters in the last two years (World Cup semifinal in 2011 and Asia Cup in 2010), and India have triumphed on both occasions. But this time, Pakistan hold the aces.
