Asia Cup 2022 | Pakistan v Afghanistan | Match 4 | Super 4 | Sharjah | 7 Sep | Afghanistan innings

[Usman Chadda]

Why are the fine leg and third man inside the circle, with bowlers at this pace?!

 

[Rana]

Wow Afghanistan openers showing us how to bat in the powerplay

 

[Marooned]

We shouldn't have believed the stupid hype about bowling 1st.
There is always more movement in 2nd innings.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Afghanistan can surprise Pakistan today.

 

[Rana]

Dropped by Naseem now

 

[Snowflake]

Why are the fine leg and third man inside the circle, with bowlers at this pace?!

Ridiculous field set up.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Dropped by Naseem

 

[Nasty Naz]

My god are these fast bowlers horrible to watch in the powerplay. Always completely wayward.

 

[Rana]

Why does Rizwan need to go all the way to 3rd man to console Naseem?

To show Rohit how it’s done?

 

[Snowflake]

The worst first 4 overs we've bowled in a long time?

 

[NeVerMind]

Naseem drops Zazai...hope he wasn't day dreaming about Urvashi!

 

[JibranAnsari]

great batting

 

[SpiritOf1903]

Another phainty to start!

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Rauf strikes

 

[Marooned]

Rouf 2 150ks in 1st 4 balls...

 

[Rana]

Harris Rauf the tape ball specialist!!

 

[Madplayer]

Out!

Anyway, horrendous decision to chase against the Afghan spinners regardless of the result. If they score decent runs, it will be unnecessary pressure on Pakistan.

 

[NeVerMind]

Rauf clean bowls Gurbaz!

 

[Marooned]

Roooooouuuuuuf!!!

 

[shamaan]

Excellent delivery targeting the stumps.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Harsh to call that a drop. Tough chance.

 

[Usman Chadda]

This Gurbaz is ridiculously dumb, this is the difference between the top teams and this Afghanistan team

 

[JibranAnsari]

finally first wicket

 

[Rana]

Does Rauf have a tape ball name like Kernal Zahid does?

 

[shamaan]

Why does Rizwan need to go all the way to 3rd man to console Naseem?

To show Rohit how it’s done?

Why do you think ?

 

[JibranAnsari]

pakistans quicks are too one dimensional.

 

[sweep_shot]

Afghans are off to a good start.

 

[Rana]

Why do you think ?

Because he is all for show!

 

[Madplayer]

This Gurbaz is ridiculously dumb, this is the difference between the top teams and this Afghanistan team

I think this is their approach regardless of the situation. High risk high reward. Same with Srilanka. They played poor shots against India last night to lose 4 wickets. But it pays sometimes.

 

[Hextro]

150, 151, and 153 by Rauf in his first over against Afghanistan.

 

[Snowflake]

So wayward by all 3 bowlers.

 

[Villager6964]

152 ks haris is very exciting to watch.

 

[JibranAnsari]

husnain needs to play 4 ball cricket.

wasting him in this ridiculous format.

 

[Usman Chadda]

pakistans quicks are too one dimensional.

Afghanistan should have been two down.

Some rubbish field settings aswell, third man and fine leg inside the circle for bowlers with 145+ kph.

 

[Villager6964]

Hasnain should bounce zazai out.

 

[Marooned]

150, 151, and 153 by Rauf in his first over against Afghanistan.

Fastest in the world rn.

 

[Madplayer]

Hasnain is bowling with poor control today. He needs to get his act together quickly.

 

[JibranAnsari]

really , how could you keep bowling on legs

 

[Villager6964]

Hasnain needs to get his line right.

 

[Ashmal]

Hasnain struggling today

 

[Rana]

Come round the wicket finally!!

 

[Snowflake]

So so poor.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Hasnain struggling with the left-right combination

 

[MenInG]

150, 151, and 153 by Rauf in his first over against Afghanistan.

[imranraf]

Hasnain is all over the place

 

[Omer2002]

Hasnain was great in Dubai and a disaster here.. i think it is left and right hand combination which is affecting him.

 

[Nasty Naz]

God, get out of here Hasnain. Dude has zero control.

 

[shah_1]

Hasnain has been garbage

 

[Marooned]

Naseem missed a trick by not coming round the wicket to zazai. He would've been back in pavilion by now.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Zazai gone

 

[shah_1]

Well done Hasnain

 

[shamaan]

Much better!

 

[Omer2002]

Hasnainnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

 

[Marooned]

Hasnain gets the hack.

As I said round the wicket.

 

[Villager6964]

That was actually good use of brain.
Very good by hasnain.

 

[shamaan]

Great comeback

 

[Omer2002]

was it me or did that skid or spin I hope no spin in this wicket .....

 

[NeVerMind]

Great comeback from Hasnain...both openers back in the hut!

 

[Rana]

Can breath a bit easy now

 

[Nasty Naz]

Terrible bowling by Hasnain. Managed to get a wicket by actually bowling at the stumps finally.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Hasnain still not comfortable with his line, regardless of this very good slower delivery.

Clearly struggling with the right-left combination, can breathe easy now.

 

[shamaan]

Wicket taking ability.

 

[Rana]

was it me or did that skid or spin I hope no spin in this wicket .....

The commentators were saying Afghanistan’s team suggests they don’t feel the wicket will spin

 

[sweep_shot]

Pakistan have clawed back.

 

[ammar_merry]

Does Rauf have a tape ball name like Kernal Zahid does?

HARIS Islamabadi

 

[Rana]

Pakistan’s Shakib Al Hassan Nawaz!

 

[sweep_shot]

Sharjah's par score tends to be lower than Dubai's.

I think 160 is par here.

 

[daytrader]

Very good slow ball by Hasnain. Bowled at 119kmh

 

[Rana]

Naseem is a below par fielder

Pakistan have improved a lot as a fielding side and Naseem cannot be a liability if he wants to be in it

 

[JibranAnsari]

uae is afghans home , they are pretty good against spin.

 

[MenInG]

Great comeback from Hasnain...both openers back in the hut!

Slower and smarter

[sweep_shot]

Afghanistan - 53/2 (7 overs).

Slowed down.

 

[Rana]

Some order is restored

 

[Rana]

Nawaz quality

 

[NeVerMind]

Afghanis happy to take the singles now that the openers are gone. Not trying to smash out. Must be the Trott effect.

 

[Omer2002]

is this Janat guy the same whom the great Asif Ali disposed for 4 sixes

 

[Rana]

Poor last ball, 4 runs

 

[Shaddy86]

If Afghans lose 1/2 more wickets then we'll see a collapse.

 

[Rana]

Shadab too floaty

Getting away with it

 

[Shafi]

Why Haider is selected today? Fakhar is bound to fail against spin.
