Australia v Pakistan | 2015 World Cup | Quarter-Finals | 20th March, 2015 | Adelaide | Pak innings

[Kianig89]

Beaten in the 38th over

 

[Kianig89]

Malcolm Faulkner

 

[Watsupdoc]

Wahab batting like a proper tail ender )

Man this so a 280 runs wicket.

 

[MMHS]

They would not have continued with Maxwell after being hit for 2 sixes & also knowing batsmen where struggling to score against pacers .

It's about hatching all the eggs at one go - PAK tries this every-time & misses most cases. AUS was 1 bowler short, that's without including 10 from Faulkner. At some point, they had to make that. Yesterday, IND was 104/2 after 26 & showed exactly how you keep wickets in middle overs - what PAK needed was to go in to PP with 8 wickets, may be even at 145/2 after 35.

All is not lost. If we can get to 235. I back the boys. This partnership key.

honestly it has to be min 250.
a) aus do not choke they are big game players
b) they bat very very deep and have lot of good batsmen with each one capable of finishing on their own
c) pitch/conditions are actually not bad for batting at all, this was a 275-300 pitch if you bat sensibly.
d) we dont have irfan like we did against SAF
e) our fielding will give away extra 10 runs and could drop 1 tough or easy chance.

so i'm sorry, but unless its super miracle it aint happening. Mamoon was right all along.

 

[Strike!]

Wahab looks clueless.

 

[Kianig89]

Another dot .

 

[saeedhk]

Wahab out of sorts.

 

[Bullet Drive]

70 more to get....

 

[Asif321]

no irfan means we cant defend 250 this time Aussie play bowlers like sohail adil wahab whole year

 

[saeedhk]

Min has to be 250.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Row..Row.. Row your boat

 

[nads_rocks]

We have absolutely nothing on the board to defend. Thanx to the usual culprits:

Shahzad
Umar
Afridi

 

[Indiafan]

Whats your point ?? You prefer Zero runs in 50 overs over some runs and some wickets?

Did you see the stats shown on the TV? Pak wins 79% of games when they have at least 2, 50+ partnerships. No strike rate, no individual 100s, but just 2 50+ partnership. You had one between Misbah and Sohail. One more might have taken you to 250.

Match is already lost.

 

[Mainul]

At 5 down Jadeja comes out to bat for India, Sabbir for Bangladesh, Mathews or Chandimal for Srilanka. All those names you can depend on in crisis and they usually deliver. For Pakistan? Mr Afridi it is at that no.it is crazy

 

[Strike Rate]

Beta match hi hai koi baat nahi autho or nashta ker lo

Your posts have been reported.

 

[Watsupdoc]

Bullet Drive keeps in saying this partnership is key, but none if them materialises )

 

[mon858]

One more wicket then panic.

These two if we can make 230, we can defend.

Afridi to run through em.

look i know its painful but its time to accept the brutal fact.
a) is pitch a dry turner = NO
b) is afridi in form with bowling = NO
c) does australia need to take many chances against him if chasing only 230 = NO

 

[Laal]

Mr. Maqsood has to play an inning of his life.

 

[imshally81]

Anyone Still Hopeful ??

On this batting belter it should be at least score of 280 290, what a horrid batting performance,

 

[jusarrived]

250 just gives you and outisde chance , I will be surprised if you guys defend lower totals against Aus .

This is not a clueless South African batting linup . Messed up a very good opportunity imo

 

[Nuekboi]

Anyone Still Hopeful ??

If we get to 200 we're still in with a chance

 

[Bullet Drive]

Come on !

 

[MMHS]

Wahab batting like a proper tail ender )

Man this so a 280 runs wicket.

If PAK reaches say 245/9, I 'll put my money for them. PAK tried to reach there & chances are that 'll miss by 60 runs at least. 280 in a QF at Adelaide D/N is PAK way of thinking, any other team 'll think of playing out 50 overs & go into last 10 overs with 7 wickets at hand.

 

[Phuzz]

I knew we should have played Younis Khan for this match.

 

[wasimjunior]

He is clueless so far

Batted far better than anyone else. You are confusing him with wahab. This is why afridi deserves so much abuse for not sticking around and supporting him

 

[lallupanju]

Starc owning riaz )

[Watsupdoc]

Starc sledging. Can you see the ball

 

[Sunny786]

Afridi, knowing that this might be his last game, should have played sensibly. Am I expecting too much?

 

[The_KING]

Of course i don't.. But... Theek hae. Rolling up our sleeves to stop this Australian juggernaut

Tbh Aussies are a bit overrated. We gave our wickets away by playing stupid shots. I'm sure Indian batsman are not stupid.

 

[Phuzz]

Mr. Maqsood has to play an inning of his life.

He hasn't got the talent to do that. Useless player

 

[Strike!]

omg wahab. )

 

[The_KING]

Yes

 

[Bullet Drive]

Nice seeing Starc grow a bit of balls.

 

[Watsupdoc]

I so hope Australia loses! These arrogant bunch of cricketers...

 

[CalculatedRisk]

Enjoying Aussies insulting pathetic Pakistani batsmen. This is what they deserve.

 

[Indiafan]

How is Afrid's inning selfish?

it's a typical innings from Afridi. Stop expecting miracles.

If you cannot adapt to the situation and play for the team it is indeed selfish. Typical innings excuse has been used for long but Afridi clearly can rotate strike easily, in fact he is the best rotater of strike in Pakistan

 

[Bullet Drive]

I hope Wahab hits Starc on the head.

 

[jusarrived]

He hasn't got the talent to do that. Useless player

These pitches dont suite him , but atleast hes hanging in there

 

[Phuzz]

If we can get 220 at least we'll have something to defend.

 

[adarsh_bang]

The commentators are trying to frame different sentences to show how Australian cricket is the best. Etc etc etc...

 

[super hitter]

great

 

[Phuzz]

These pitches dont suite him , but atleast hes hanging in there

Apparently he's the new Inzamam

 

[WNC]

Starc riled up Wahab. He's lost it now.

 

[Scorpion]

Faulkner bowling 140+

 

[nads_rocks]

I remember a game where Pakistan left Australia at 9-4. If only that is possible to happen today.

 

[imshally81]

hahahah overthrow

 

[Watsupdoc]

Yes! Come on Wahab!!!

 

[Vayuu]

I told you guys pakistan has to be very watchful of lalloos, and they did exactly the opposite, maxwell of all people.

 

[CalculatedRisk]

mental disintegration of Pakistan

 

[Adil_94]

Apparently he's the new Inzamam

He is living up to that. Hes struggling in Australia

 

[Bengal tiger]

second batting is not easy. ball will swing....

 

[leatherface58]

Lol what a brainfade.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Allah please allow us to win this game!

I want to shut these arrogant Aussies up.

 

[adarsh_bang]

Someone needs to teach these guys a lesson. #Virat is your man for these situations. Fighter

 

[nads_rocks]

Even Aussis are helping us now to get some runs

 

[Big Mac]

If we make it to 50 overs we will have something to defend.

Come on lads.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Legendary running between the wicket

 

[adarsh_bang]

These two need to take it easy for another 5-6 overs and then give it a whack.

 

[jabarjabar]

As an India fan rooting big time for Pakistan. Aussies attitude on field obnoxious.

 

[Phuzz]

He is living up to that. Hes struggling in Australia

He's not eating enough aloo. That's his problem.

 

[CalculatedRisk]

Misbah looks relaxed. He knows his team is not good enough to get more than 230 in any case.

 

[Pantani]

These two are showing how to put Australia's fielding under pressure: aggressive running.

 

[Watsupdoc]

Man starc has really fired up the Pakistani in me!

 

[bbzzz]

Bat the full 50 overs..

 

[zains_rulez]

Common pakistan

 

[ali2220]

Aus are good but not great, as its pak that is rubbish .We will know how great they are when they play India next.

[liv_2_die22]

over throw by Australia ... 5 runs ... yeyyyy ... moral victory for us

 

[adarsh_bang]

I hope Wahab comes back and gets 6-21 and wins it for Pakistan. Shut up Starc!

 

[ScotRaz]

I hope Wahab hits Starc on the head.

I hope you don't really mean that, I'd rather have him hit Starc for

 

[Adil_94]

He's not eating enough aloo. That's his problem.

If he eat more aloo there would be more run outs

 

[H2O1]

11 off the over
