Aaron Finch hits 155* as Australia comfortably defeat Pakistan by 8 wickets in 2nd ODI at Sharjah

[Hasan123]

Didn’t carry.

 

[Syed1]

Had a fielder done that during Sarf's captaincy he would have gotten a mouthful and the snowflakes on PP would have been offended... instead no reaction from Malik.... carry on as you were

 

[Chokli]

at least faheem has a nice hair style, got one thing going for him

 

[Mueez]

Aray yaar...

That was a chance.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Finally Hasnain given the ball after 10 overs.

Should have opened the bowling

 

[topspin]

why are our fans so pathetic?

I was going to respond to your post but that thread was closed to new posts. Some appalling comments from the armchair critics on here.

How anyone can make a case for Imad's exclusion in the side needs a copy of this:

 

[Titan24]

What a start from Hasnain

 

[Hasan123]

Interesting start.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need to move on and try and get 320 - 330 instead of 270 - 280 .

 

[TeymurBlake]

The only one that has a bit of pace is held back till nobody knows when.

Shoaib Malik is the captain. That says a lot.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Get a slip in. No matter what happens this kid has to be played in all the games now.

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

The moment i was waiting for. Hassu into the attack.

i know right.


btw, i'm having my doubts on imam.

 

[Syed1]

143 first bowl lmao

 

[Deewana Mastana]

91mph

 

[ExpressPacer]

Love this guys physique.

 

[Titan24]

146.5 from Hasnain

 

[Syed1]

Love this guys physique.

Ok calm down

 

[Mueez]

143 first bowl lmao

And it was a bouncer.

Pretty much fast for a bouncer!

 

[Afhan Ali]

Too many easy signals

 

[Plumb]

BRILLIANT field placements malik for a guy who is bowling 90+mph*

 

[srh]

Why not give Husnain new ball?

 

[sjahmed23]

This is why we need a guy like Harris Rauf or Wahab.. Our bowling looks too passive.

 

[Hasan123]

Badly need a wicket

 

[Chokli]

too bad wahab never developed as well as we thought he would.

wahab and hasnain first bowling in tandem would have been nice.

 

[Justcrazy]

up

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Waqar says he should be in the WC squad.

 

[Adijazz1706]

Debutant firing in thunderbolts while Amir kept trundling alobg, a world of difference

 

[Syed1]

Milking easily

 

[x_KINGKHAN_x]

147.4 kph last one

 

[topspin]

i know right.


btw, i'm having my doubts on imam.

Imam is developing well but for me he just misses the cut for one of the opening slots because I feel we would be better off with Fakhar and Babar opening the batting, with Haris and Umar to follow.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Ends with 91mph As Well. Good first over 88-91mph throughout.

 

[Titan24]

147.4 Kph that last bowl

 

[Shafi]

Haris Rauf should be played ahead of Abbas as well.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need quick wickets here , if Aussies bat 50 overs , they should win .

 

[Titan24]

Really need a wicket here

 

[Invincible Gujjar]

I can't believe wahab is not in the squad. He is much better than these trundlers

 

[Baigel]

Why can't we set a more attacking field for the debutant? Give the kid some support

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

Khawaja's technique and balance has improved. Good for Aus.

I wont be surprised if he becomes their 3rd dependable batsman after Smith and Warner in coming years.

 

[Hasan123]

We don’t even look like getting a wicket.

 

[Chokli]

short shpells

 

[Mueez]

Sarfraz > Imad > Shadab > Malik as a captain.

 

[Shafi]

He took Shan and Imam, can't expect him to take Shehzad AND UAkmal, he would've been slaughtered on social media. Abid Ali also bats in the top 3 I believe, no need to sling corruption allegations without sufficient proof

He selected Yasir who is a proven failure in ODI when so many PSL options available, Same thing he did for Pakistan cup selected too many TTFs ahead of deserving players.

 

[Titan24]

Waqar speaking well that Hasnain should be managed well here considering its his first List A game let alone ODI. Shouldnt be bowling more than 3 in 1 go

 

[Chokli]

if only faheem could bat

 

[ExpressPacer]

Ok calm down

Hahah yaar patlay patlay Amir or Shaheen ko dekh dekh kay tang agya hu. xD

 

[Adijazz1706]

: keeping it tight

 

[Hasan123]

Surprised Finch hasn’t attacked Faheem more.

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

Saw some comments from Hyderabadis who were so happy that Hassu is making debut for Pakistan. Only second player after Sharjeel coming from Hyderabad. Feeling happy for them.

 

[Syed1]

9 wicket defeat coming up

 

[Hasan123]

Surely one of these 2 will aim to up the ante now.

 

[Plumb]

Looking for people who wanted Malik as captain for WC19 if you find em send em to UAE

 

[yasir]

I would have played Hussian and Rauf in all five, Faheem is not an all rounder. And this trundler factory must end now. We cannot take humiliation in every department. Some part of the ame must be worth watching

Also, Immad is a bowler nor is Yasir. Umer Khan should have been tried. Inzi and Mickey are to blame for TTFs

 

[Titan24]

Finch didnt have time for that bouncer

 

[x_KINGKHAN_x]

147 bouncer

 

[Adijazz1706]

He selected Yasir who is a proven failure in ODI when so many PSL options available, Same thing he did for Pakistan cup selected too many TTFs ahead of deserving players.

Over-the-hill players in the team is an age old problem, Miandad at the 96 WC, a lot of the '03 squad and the 2015 squad as well. Inzimam has had bad moments as selector but he has also given many youngsters chances. Mickey and the captain alsi have a say in selection I believe, Inzi and they should do better

 

[shaz619]

Just tuning in to see the new kid on the block. very pacy isn't he

 

[shaz619]

9 wicket defeat coming up

We need Sir Sarfraz Ahmed of Karachi to save us

 

[Titan24]

Feel for Rauf that he isnt playing as surely in these conditions Rauf, Hasnain etc guys with pace will be more effective.

 

[Gullycricket]

Wow pace made me watch again.This kid is what we need

 

[Mueez]

What a bouncer!

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan bowling looking toothless again , worry sign ahead of WC

 

[Gullycricket]

When u trouble aussies with bouncers on Uae pitches it clearly means something.....Hope Inzi,Mickey see this

 

[Hasan123]

4 runs.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Ladies and gentlemen, Ferguson and Starc finally have company.

 

[Nado_]

The only things I was hoping for this series: Hasnain to show he’s the real deal, Haris to hit some form, Umer Akmal to play good innings to be selected

 

[Afhan Ali]

Australia looks so comfortable in this chase, required run rate is still under 6

 

[Baigel]

148!

 

[Justcrazy]

Finch again looking good here .

 

[MMHS]

Looks like new ball bowling is the biggest weak link in bowling armory - hardly any wicket taking balls in 20 overs of PP. Previously, it was well covered by old ball skills and spin attack, but with two balls in use, it won't be old enough and probably since 1950s, for the first time PAK spin attack is weaker than AUS!!! Even when they had Warne, for ODI PAK had Saq & Mushi .... now Imad is opening with new ball and Ul Haq didn't consider Gohar even for the PAK cup which is missing national players!!!!!

 

[Mueez]

Oh this guy is gold....

 

[Shafi]

Another 10 wickets defeat on the card. Would be a blessing in disguise.

 

[IMMY69]

Can everyone agree that Malik is a useless captain?!?!

 

[Titan24]

Atlast we have our old fashioned fast bowling back with Hasnain, Rauf, Musa, Hassan, Shaheen in the mix.

 

[Afhan Ali]

Malik please stop these signals otherwise it will be another 8-9 wicket win for aussies

 

[Gullycricket]

Needs to be careful against bowling too many short balls

 

[kingusama92]

Hasnain looks fantastic as usual.

 

[Mueez]

Another 10 wickets defeat on the card. Would be a blessing in disguise.

I hope Mickey also ‘rests’ Malik fgs.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Can everyone agree that Malik is a useless captain?!?!

He is giving away easy singles. It's frustrating.

Inzi acts like a reckless tyrant and selecting whom he likes. Sad to see Micky is going along with this.
