Episode description

Our friendly bunch of friends record this week's episode right after the India vs. Pak match in the Asia Cup ended as a damp squib. They waste no time in likening the proceedings in the first half of the match to a time and place they know in their bones. There's also some synchronized jaw-dropping when they realize that yet again, Pak pace is haal 100% in and of itself, and the Indian lower order is 'haal behaal'. Collective cheering also happens at the recent results in the international women's cricket and the prospects of more twists and turnsin the ongoing Asia Cup.
