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

230+ and pressure is on aussies..guys this is one of the best toss to win for pak...now its 50:50..dont believe in analysts
 
target 250, but if got 5 wickets in hand in last 7-8 overs, go crazy and try 12/over and get as many as you can,maybe even 290.
but dont aim for more than 250 to begin

Yeah, aim for 260-270 at first. Go that route for 40 overs.

And if you have wickets in hand, let Maqsood, Afridi and Wahab go beserk.

But dont overdo it at the start.
 
Afridi and shehzad should open i have been requesting this all tournament. They will make 100 in PP

Misbah's knock will be very important in this pitch. His dogged resistance will be key here. Anything more than 230, and pakistan should feel they can win.
 
I too think yk should have played this match..but cant say in whose place.may be team management too would have gone through same dailemq
 
Made up stories about grass on pitch and Australian interference. Conspiracisits are in full effect and match hasn't even started yet. Bunch of losers.
 
When pakistan aims for 280 then they might reachn250.

Why is everyone saying to aim for 250??

This is crunch match we should make 300 for psychological pressure. 280+ will apply pressure on Aus

We will only get to 270+ if afridi and akmal hold their wickets and score big. Seems like the last ten overs were always stuck with one of the two
 
I am hoping for 280 or so but I am afraid we will make around 200 or so.
Pitch seems to have some demons
 
yeah hoping for 250 minimun and i think game on boys


hahaha im on my laptop at uni and this random comes to me and is like who won the toss
im like how did you know i was checking
hes like i can tell from your face

Nope. Need Afridi in the last 5 overs when the ball is not moving around
 
Time for one of our youngsters to be counted as future stars....... Akmal, Shehzad, Maqsood, Haris, Sarfaraz, Rahat... which one?
 
Pakistan needs to aim at something over 200 and hope one of their bowlers has a game of his life. Winning the toss gives Pakistan an outside chance otherwise this game was as good as done.
 
I don't understand. Why are we batting first on a grassy pitch? We should have bowled first and looked to get them out under 200.

It's not a particularly grassy pitch.

See out the new ball and 270+ is on
 
Cummins is not even playing. I guess he was the designated guy to deliver pre match banter.
 
Wahab Riaz saying that he gets his pace up when he sees the need. Smart bowler.

LOL at some of the Indians saying that Yadav and Aaron are faster.
 
match has not started, i'm wearing a hoodie, but shivering. nerves nerves. wouldn't want to be sarfraz and shehzad today.

it must take huge guts to open in a world cup knockout.

Who is Yadav? Rajpal Yadav?

[MENTION=134240]Electron[/MENTION] Wahab today answered you query in pre match he was saying i increase my pace according to situation.
 
Australia have genuine batsmen down until #8. Then they have MJ and Starc.

Talk about depth.
 
Please please please please rotate the strike from ball 1 !!!!

Good morning everyone. Happy to see we're batting first. What is the par first innings total here?
 
Is batting first on a green pitch really a good idea?

If we aim for 300, we will be 150 all out.

We have a good chance of defending 260, even 240 could be tricky for the Aussies if we bowl well.
 
In sha Allah we win. Going to log off for a bit. Maybe will come back if we are off to a good start. Lets hope we are. Good luck Pakistan.
 
Ricky Ponting to CNN-IBN: Pak needs to be courageous with the bat, must put pressure on the Australian bowlers
 
Pak fans better hope Sarfraz survives the intial burst. He is truly your only hope at a semi competitive score. If Sarfraz departs early expect to get bowled out for around 150.
 
[MENTION=134240]Electron[/MENTION] Wahab today answered you query in pre match he was saying i increase my pace according to situation.

I hope he does that a lot earlier today. Match will be gone if he leaves it too late. (Like he did against India)

This. Man, I would go weak in the knees opening the batting in such a situation. Idiotic to claim that opening is easy it is the most difficult batting position in cricket.
 
Lol this ploy by Clarke negates pakistan spin and reverse swing, Pakistan basically have to bat damn well, lightning quick out field we need 280 plus, organ would have been deadly here
 
Sarfraz is due to fail today, but he's done well against Australia in past, hope he can turn it on today.
 
Aussies have 5 pace bowlers in their side. Hope we can score 250

TBH Wahab has been bowling badly with the new ball while bowling first. He needs to up his ante and get quick wickets initially

Sorry but he alone cannot do anything, Wahab was never likely to win the match against India by himself.
