Australia beat Pakistan by 41 runs in 17th match of 2019 World Cup

[Amirforpresident]

God I hope I'm wrong but got a feeling Cummins will bully Fakhar

 

[WC-Passion]

Starc is making me sweat here and he's not even bowled yet.

 

[Mueez]

Wow Fakhar ranked number 10 in ODI rankings.

Shows that you just need to bat sensibly here, even if we are 100/3 they should not give up.

 

[Green Patriot]

Nice start

 

[satheesh]

unbelievable ..... AUS doing a SAF here... losing 8 wkts in the last 16 overs or so. Sensing some late turnaround to the pitch conditions. Otherwise it is very difficult to see Aussies doing such a self destruction. Is it the play of the mother nature or the magic of Amir?? ....Let's wait and see.

 

[Mueez]

No ball.

 

[ARK Rafay]

Imam so late on that pull off free hit
Lol

 

[Syed1]

Dot on free hit by Imam

 

[Mueez]

Imam pls hit a boundary on this one.

 

[Green Patriot]

Actually that wasnt a no ball.
But nevermind. Imam cant capitalise on the no ball anyways.

 

[Amirforpresident]

No ball wasted

 

[ARK Rafay]

Uff. This is too much for Pakistan. I can't watch

 

[JibranAnsari]

difficult wicket for pakistani batsmen.

 

[Hasan123]

Need to see this spell off.

 

[Amirforpresident]

It feels like Pakistan is playing against England in a test match under cloudy conditions

 

[JibranAnsari]

fakhar is the most important player for pakistan here.

 

[Hasan123]

Imam or Babar needs to get a big one today.

 

[Azzurri]

Come on guys. Why so negative. They need to play to win. Just play normal cricket. Respect good balls and dispatch bad balls ️

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

Beauty

 

[ARK Rafay]

Looks like clouds are coming in. It may rain

 

[Hasan123]

What a ball.

 

[Ronaldo7]

I don't think fakhar will survive for long on this pitch...

 

[JibranAnsari]

great bowling.

 

[Mueez]

Actually rain will suit Pakistan....

 

[Green Patriot]

They need to keep ahead on the DL at every cost.

 

[Ronaldo7]

I don't think it will rain. Even if it does it will be very light.

 

[Mueez]

I would have been much more relaxed if Haris would’ve been playing instead of Malik saab.

 

[Chokli]

Hasan and Shaheen are absolute filth.

 

[Hasan123]

If our top 3 set a platform, usually we do well.

 

[JibranAnsari]

lol we arent going to score 200 here.

 

[Green Patriot]

Imam vs Starc

 

[Hasan123]

Looks like clouds are coming in. It may rain

Weather will be fine. It's on our batters now.

 

[castortroy]

300 a massive score on this wicket

 

[WC-Passion]

Starc's bowling is too good, this is normal. One boundary is needed to release the pressure.

 

[JibranAnsari]

why didnt shadab play? injured?

 

[castortroy]

We will be bundled out for 230 max

 

[Chokli]

I don't think fakhar will survive for long on this pitch...

Reminding me of the 2003 World Cup match but Australia's innings in reverse.

In that match they got off to a horrid start but still got 310.

In this match they got off to a great start but only got 307.

 

[ARK Rafay]

Just pray these two see off the 1st 10 overs

 

[Mueez]

why didnt shadab play? injured?

Left out for Shaheen.

 

[Ronaldo7]

Jeez, only 2 overs have passed and pak fans have started to hyperventilate.

 

[topspin]

The first 5 overs will be tough examination for these two batsman, so I would take 20/0 at that stage.

 

[Pakistani Pace]

Starc causing trouble here.

 

[Green Patriot]

why didnt shadab play? injured?

No.
Team management thought that its a green surface and so no need for spin so all pace attack.

 

[castortroy]

Our opening bowlers bar Amir let us down

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

Beautiful bowling

 

[Hasan123]

Good over by Starc.

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

This blasted Rameez Raja so boring and negative

 

[shah_1]

Lool Starc isn't a threat

 

[ARK Rafay]

Pitch looks to assist too much to pacers

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

fakhar gone.

 

[JibranAnsari]

first one gone.

 

[castortroy]

I did say we will be 50-3

 

[foulu]

lol..

 

[Hasan123]

Fakhar gone.

 

[shah_1]

That was village batting by Fakhar

 

[ARK Rafay]

Here we go then. 1 down. Next one coming up soon as well. Could be imam

 

[imshally81]

 

[Mueez]

Fakhar

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Nervous

 

[mrtaim3]

There you go.

 

[Snowflake]

Batters making it look way more difficult than it actually is

 

[Green Patriot]

I wish it was Asif Ali standing there.

 

[ahmadharis1]

Imam's dot balls leading to Fakhar's dismissal yet again...

 

[JibranAnsari]

this innings will be over in 20 overs.

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

Well that’s probably the game

 

[geraltofrivia]

aussie aussie oi oi aussie aussie

 

[Markhor]

We aren't going to last on this surface.

 

[castortroy]

Game over lads

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

Lol. Collapse reloaded

 

[fluke]

will surely lose today

 

[fasihulhaq94]

imam bullied in one over by starc. can he mount a comeback?

 

[Ronaldo7]

I don't think fakhar will survive for long on this pitch...

...

 

[Itachi]

Oh my oh my.....

 

[dildilpak]

Hahaha

 

[jnaveen1980]

I think he is missing Asif at the other end

 

[NauV]

That's so unfortunate for Fakhar!

Lets see what Babar does today . . he always goes missing when Pak really needs him!

I hope someone has told Pak that Aus has 4 front line bowlers . . the rest is supposed to be finch and maxwell

 

[JibranAnsari]

how many catches did pakistan drop?

 

[PakWC'11Champs]

Knew it.
Pakistan will struggle to get to 250.
Can not deal with pace on this wicket. Under pressure. Without pressure batting first maybe. Second, forget it.

200 will be a challenge.

 

[Rana]

Babar needs to bat 50 overs here
