What's new

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

Playing their first ODI since participating in the ICC ODI World Cup 2023, Pakistan continues to struggle with the same issue: a lack of temperament to play out a complete 50-over innings
 
Aus should have rested Smith , Cummins, Zampa and Starc for this series... Atleast Pak could've saved some sort of embarrasment..

I hope you now know why I went to war with these guys.

For someone like devadwal who put me on his ignore list for bullying, he sure does this 24/7 to every pakistani poster.

Shareef Indian my foot. Does nothing but spread racism 24/7

You're the very definition of a hypocrite.

You put me on the ignore list not because of any "you're not good enough for me diacussions"

But because you're a coward and a bully. You can take on posters and bully those who don't fight back, but the ones that do you run like a chicken.

Fraud

No the arrogant cry not us.

Rizwan: We don't need to follow the world 🤡. How did this rubbish even get captaincy?

PAK should stick to a similar lineup for CT . It's still a decent lineup for lower bouncing pitches.

Just get Fakhar in there

Usman Khan needs to be given a go too. Get arafat Minhas in and please get rid of haris rauf. I would like to see jahandad Khan instead of him. Shadab may also find his way back in the team as as like of faisal akram and sufiyan are not very good.

Irfan wants Naseem to play like Shaheen now

Seriously want him to swing aimlessly like Agha and Kamran and lose his wicket...

May be this is why they are getting fed by Usman Khans and Ifthikars ... intl cricket is lot more than those aimless ugly hoicks...

This guy Irfan for his debut game in MCG playing the short ball much better than Rizwan , Agha and Kamran.. Has he come at no.4 would have scored 50 or 60 by now..

Mentally tough cricketer, definitely one for the future...

I like this boy Irfan's temperament

He had the best 100 in the Champions one day cup as well.

He actually seems like a proper batsmen. He should bat at 6 though. It's an extremely unfair situation he's been given considering he's a debutant atm
 
This is the thing with these crap players

They don’t really cause any serious damage to the opposition, and have these weird techniques that make them survive longer. They just basically occupy the crease with no real danger/threat to the opponent. They come out of it with decent averages, and those averages are then used without context to make critical decisions going forward.

He literally play can't wrist spin. I have watched him enough in white ball cricket.

Looked fairly comfortable against leach and Bashir but he couldn't pick the googly of Rehan Ahmed.

Don't think Shadab should. Neither should Rauf. But in place of Rauf , they should have tried Akif.Usman deserves a go but I don't think he's international standard . But no harm in trying him out.

Arafat should definitely play though.

Aqib Javed should not become reactionary if PAK lose here. These are different conditions and PAK don't have the players when the ball bounces that high.

Lol, there is a difference between fearless cricket and stupid cricket. But if we don't have better options then we should back him. You need aggressive cricketers who also gives you big runs at a quick rate. Will always take 67 (40) but 1(5) or 44(71) is just painful.
 
Irfaaaaaaan no no.. keep ur shape , u played much better cricket shots than those ugly heaves like Akmal, Usman khan and ifthikars

He needs to take his batting in the way like a proper lower batsmen like Bevan , Raina, , Stokes etc and for a team like Pak he can even bat at 4 with his more than decent technique..

You still haven't answered this question:

Who do you think should be ODI captain?

Cummins want their openers to attack.

Rizwan wants the opposite.

There you go

Thanks for proving my point. You haven’t seen JFM play, there is no one more stupid than him in world cricket the way he plays. Aussies don’t mind that do they?

You people are your own worst enemies. Cursed nation.

Agreed I don't think Usman is international standard but deserves a shot. I don't want shadab back either but if they are planning to take faisal akram than I will happily take shadab.

I think akif is injured again he looked one of the best fast bowlers in the domestic tournament.
 
Naseem have got immense wrist power

You can't teach that, he is gifted. He should work on his batting

Specialist Misbah

Irfan Khan is from the SNGPL crew as well right?

If that's the case then the misbah curse will catch up.

It's a shame cause I thought his 50 ball 100 in champions one day cup was good. So was Abdul samad as well but they both suck

Yes too early for a vice-captain position..
 
Now in the next game, Rizwan will win the toss and bowl first…


And Australia will pile on 400
 
A couple of mighty shots from Naseem Shah against Australia in the 1st ODI - he needs to step up as a proper all-rounder officially

You did not get my point at all.

JFM is fearless but not stupid, that is at least how the australian big hitters are.

But Saim Ayub is not smart, that is why I said it's difference between being fearless and stupid. You also need to be good in addition to be fearless, not stupid and fearless. Hope you understood it better this time, I know my english is poor.

Well on the bright side. He seems to be a younger version of chacha. So alteaat misbah has learned to bring in younger guns.

No more 50 year olds. Too bad all those young guns are mentally 50 years old as well
 
Wasim Akram is simply enjoying his time in the commentary box - he doesn't care if Pakistan wins or loses.

Saim ayub isn't fearless. He's a coward batter. He's proven himself to be a test accumulator and a very very poor one at that.

These 70's of 176 in tests aren't needed nor is his playstyle suited for odi.

He came with positive intent when he made his debut. Frequent outs + pakistani current culture got to him.

Remember team culture also matters. Cummins is telling jfm to have a crack it, What is rizzu telling saim? Or Babar? Or any captain before that?

You haven’t watched him play.

He is as stupid as they come. Anyone who wants to hit every ball for a 4 or 6 will come across as that. It’s just that he has been given the absolute license to play like that without any worry. The selectors won’t tell him to go back and learn how to build an innings if he fails a few times. They will just tell him to be himself.

As I said, Pakistan as a nation is clueless at developing youth.
 
“JFM is smart, he will look to see out Naseem and then attack Rauf to make up for it”



Ermmmmmm No he won’t! He will go for all of them!

Naseem should have kept strike, but that Rauf's ego was at stake

I think it was a good ball tbh, he seemed like he was trying play across the line for a single?

Also it is odi and not test. Scoreboard needs to be ticking.

Back then we were carrying Shadab & Nawaz as our spinners. Though they were pretty much useless.

If we have picked Arafat & Minhas in the squad, we have got to play at least one of them.

Exactly. They were useless. And the 4 fast bowler strategy was the right one after Nawaz was dropped
