Australia (204/8) beat Pakistan (203) by 2 wickets in a low-scoring thriller in the first ODI

[mominsaigol]

16.4 overs, 61 runs, oh my God.

 

[mango_bite77]

Here we go, Wasim, When I started

 

[MANU ROY]

Babar standing tall others struggling

 

[Kianig89]

Because he was clueless and he couldnt buy a run either.

Captaincy was affecting his batting.

ok thanks then enjoy Rizwan's captaincy

 

[batandballbattle]

short and mc gurk will make what these guys do in 20 in the first 10

 

[ask_analyse_act]

Usman Khan was the best performer in champions one day cup, he's fine

Good that he wasnt selected in ODIs , he is a tullaybaaz with such weak technique.. Aus would have ended his ODI career just like they did for Fawad Alam and now how they expose rizwan..

 

[mominsaigol]

That was a full toss? Why did you block it rizzu? Allah

 

[Mohraheem]

Tuktuk on a full toss! Misbah probably smiling. Training his Pirchi son

 

[emranabbas]

9 off 30 odd

It won’t get any easier with Zampa coming on. Hardy and Abbott are the easiest overs

He's just holding the wicket at one end while babar is hitting 4's and 6

AlSo today He's not playing as batsmen He's playing as wicket keeper

 

[Kianig89]

Zampa will get wickets

 

[mominsaigol]

Good that he wasnt selected in ODIs , he is a tullaybaaz with such weak technique.. Aus would have ended his ODI career just like they did for Fawad Alam and now how they expose rizwan..

Lol, Rizzu is a legside hack, UK is an overall better batter then him

 

[Deewana Mastana]

16.4 overs, 61 runs, oh my God.

Had it been Usman Khan and Fakhar Zaman would've had 100 by now.

 

[Mohraheem]

That was a full toss? Why did you block it rizzu? Allah

Misbah

 

[mango_bite77]

Zampa will get wickets

Yes, he is too good for Pak lineup

 

[Kianig89]

Very tough for newbies kG & Irfan, undue pressure created here

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Bobs has batted really well. Not easy on this pitch against this attack

Target 260 first. Pitch is slower than other OZ pitches but it has bounce almost as much as Gabba, Perth - kryptonite for PAk batsmen

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Zampa will get wickets

That's why he avgs 28

 

[MANU ROY]

Looks like captaincy affecting Mr dream queen

 

[Mohraheem]

Misbah tuktuk Test match!

 

[Kianig89]

Had it been Usman Khan and Fakhar Zaman would've had 200 by now.

Add AzamKhan Sharjeel & Asif Ali also

 

[Rana]

Karlo attack spinner ko Ab!

 

[Justcrazy]

zampa gets babar

 

[Mohraheem]

Going backward with Misbah tuktuk Tactics! Pakistan never recovered from this!

 

[mominsaigol]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Babar vs Spin is always makes for a very entertaining sitcom

 

[mango_bite77]

Playing backfoot to fuller length. Its over for Pak.

 

[MANU ROY]

Lol Bobby gone I hype him for nothing

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Typical Babar.

Useless as they come against spin.

 

[Rana]

Add AzamKhan Sharjeel & Asif Ali also

Have respect for Sharjeel

No Pakistani has batted like he has in Australia in the past 10 years

 

[Nasty Naz]

Spin on and Babar is out immediately. These guys are textbook.

 

[kingusama92]

Pathetic technique from Babar.

Zampa is a beast of a bowler these days.

 

[batandballbattle]

meray ka king meray ka king meray world class meray world class

 

[G0rmintAunty]

Babar in the nervous 40s, needs to kaancentrate here.

bola tha maine, fittay munh

 

[emranabbas]

Bobsy nai kar paya

 

[Rana]

What is this new era?

It’s the return of the Misbah era

 

[G0rmintAunty]

ON the bright side, KG will have to face spin now at least.

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Babar is finished.

@Mamoon you can keep watching everyday how it disintegrates for him.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

4 bang down the track Kamran

 

[MANU ROY]

What is this new era?

It’s the return of the Misbah era

Tuk tuk era

 

[heddie19]

bola tha maine, fittay munh

He didn't even reach 40s

 

[Mohraheem]

Tuktuk will not win you matches… oh but this will give Misbah fans to talk about oh but Tuktuk helped get over 200 mark lol but will we win with Tuktuk? Never

 

[Kianig89]

all on Rizwan now, 5fer for zampa expected we wony play 50 overs

 

[kingusama92]

Nice intent from Kamran.

 

[emranabbas]

Kamran showing Bobby the king how its done

 

[mominsaigol]

What is this new era?

It’s the return of the Misbah era

Lol, Rizzu is literally his chosen Successor so ofcourse.

Rizzu even playing the crises man innings. 13 of 32 lol. And yes crises man was sarcasm

 

[mango_bite77]

Pathetic technique from Babar.

Zampa is a beast of a bowler these days.

It was not that good delivery, he played wrong shot

 

[Sycamore]

It's okay, just play your game. Who cares about the world , who cares about the match, as long as you are not out and get those 50s 100s...

 

[Devadwal]

Most overrated, overhyped player of the decade gone.

 

[FearlessRoar]

Pathetic technique from Babar.

Zampa is a beast of a bowler these days.

Continued woes against spin

 

[Rana]

I’ll take 30 balls to get going thanks

 

[FearlessRoar]

Kamran needs to calm down

 

[mominsaigol]

I’ll take 30 balls to get going thanks

I'll take the whole innings to get going

 

[kingusama92]

It was not that good delivery, he played wrong shot

Literally my first sentence in that post.

 

[mango_bite77]

Most overrated, overhyped player of the decade gone.

Kohli is not playing for Pak.

Bdw something to cheer for you after 20 days of humiliation.

 

[Sycamore]

It was not that good delivery, he played wrong shot

He saw that first few deliveries Babar was camping on back foot, (he has been getting lbw when going forward to spin) , zampa smartly fired in a fast one.

It was great awareness from zampa.

 

[G0rmintAunty]

He didn't even reach 40s

Yeah, had posted earlier its the 30s to 40s range usually. I think once he gets a 100 he will get back in form, he seems to have this mental block in the 30 to 60 area for a while now

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Add AzamKhan Sharjeel & Asif Ali also

That's pushing it

 

[mominsaigol]

Mashallah

 

[mango_bite77]

Oaky KG gone too, under 150 ?

 

[Mohraheem]

Tuktuk era has started! Misbah is the blame to this

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Another Pakistani batter gets out to bounce.

 

[Nasty Naz]

Kamran Ghulam looks so obvious as a player who simply cannot play pace. Looks like a complete hack vs pace.

 

[G0rmintAunty]

KG, Saud Shakeel aren't players fit for Australia, was a bad choice to take him to begin with.

 

[kingusama92]

Yikes that was a tough one for Kamran.

Always tough for Pakistani batsmen to handle the bounce.

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Cummins realized in 2 balls that KG was dead meat.

 

[mango_bite77]

KG, Saud Shakeel aren't players fit for Australia, was a bad choice to take him to begin with.

Then where will he play? In uganda and barmuda ?

 

[Sycamore]

The awareness of the Aussie bowlers is so high class.

Setup , accuracy... Just pure *chefs kiss*

 

[hafizexpress]

What an amateur inning by an amateur. Kamran needed more composure. You talented boi but this isn't Nepal for you to go dashing out from ball 1. His first time playing at the MCG and against Aus and international cricket in general.. he showed no temperament. Wanted to make an impression. Hopefully he impresses in the next 2

 

[Rana]

I'll take the whole innings to get going

Now that I’m captain, I’ll get going after the series

 

[mominsaigol]

Cummins is so good in the middle overs, idkw he opened lol

 

[batandballbattle]

looks to me like he takes his bottom hand off before he is struck on the glove...

 

[G0rmintAunty]

Then where will he play? In uganda and barmuda ?

Asian conditions. Even in the Pakistan Champions trophy recently, KG missed a couple of straight ones up front at the start and was bowled.

 

[FearlessRoar]

Oaky KG gone too, under 150 ?

Unnecessary intent caused him to lose his wicket.

 

[Justcrazy]

71 . 4


20 overs

 

[Rana]

What’s the game plan?

I’ll block one end at 4 and everyone else attack?

 

[mango_bite77]

Asian conditions. Even in the Pakistan Champions trophy recently, KG missed a couple of straight ones up front at the start and was bowled.

It is evident that he is poor against Pace. Especially when there is bit bounce and movement. Not gonna survive for a long time.

 

[khyberlion]

As suspected Kamran Ghulam can't play pace. Abdullah needs to go and Rizwan has no business playing at 4.

 

[batandballbattle]

A reminder that they've sat out Hazlewood for this one. We coule be 72-7

 

[PakFan2010]

Poor team selection.

Shan Masood, Fakhar Zaman and Usman Khan should all be playing.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Warner on commentary?

 

[mominsaigol]

Now that I’m captain, I’ll get going after the series

People were telling me that my 11 would get bowled out for 150. Abhi dekho kya ho raha hai.

God is always kind to us.

It's been a long long time since I've seen the Misbah era return
