Australia v Pakistan | 3rd T20I | Perth Stadium, Perth | 8th November, 2019 | Pakistan Innings

[lifecric7]

ifti chachu going great guns.. second coming of misbah ul haq

 

[Mueez]

Iftikhar only positive in this series with Babar.

Maybe Musa and Khushdil join the list today...

 

[Pete Rose]

The human scarecrow is bowling

 

[Mamoon]

I wonder who will sit out to accommodate Iftikhar in the Test lineup.

 

[AAli98]

There’s been some **** pak teams over the years.. iv played in better sunday league pub teams than this one!

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Big Billy in.

 

[ARK Rafay]

Iftikhar replying Aussie by counter attacking

 

[Usman Chadda]

It's becoming really hard to watch this uninspiring team now. We lost before, but we did not get humiliated like this.

This is 2013-2015 all over again, and I personally am getting sick of this.

 

[Danyaalr01]

I wonder who will sit out to accommodate Iftikhar in the Test lineup.

I reckon he should play the spinners role. Yasir is useless in Australia. His FC stats are decent. Averages 27 with the ball.

 

[BalluBalleBaaz]

Iftikhar showing what 'high on confidence' is!

 

[hussain.r97]

I wonder who will sit out to accommodate Iftikhar in the Test lineup.

Do you think Iftikhar is the real deal? Or another false dawn?

 

[Danyaalr01]

Bounce!!!!

 

[Pete Rose]

I wonder who will sit out to accommodate Iftikhar in the Test lineup.

Should be shafiq

 

[King_Kohli]

I wonder who will sit out to accommodate Iftikhar in the Test lineup.

He is not test material

 

[ARK Rafay]

Is Khushdil a good back foot player?

 

[Danyaalr01]

Iftikhar has excellent domestic stats. He's proving himself in international.

 

[shortbread]

Lahore Qalandars must have seen a Stanlake hiding inside the 7 foot 4 inch Mohammad Mudassar!

Will be a great asset if that height can be put into good use.

 

[Mamoon]

Do you think Iftikhar is the real deal? Or another false dawn?

My problem with him is that he is too old. This might be the last purple patch of his career. To be fair, nothing excites me about Pakistan cricket anymore. Everything looks like a false dawn to me, maybe except Babar.

 

[castortroy]

These Australian tours have been a nightmare for years.

Honestly we need to stop touring Oz

 

[hussain.r97]

Is Khushdil a good back foot player?

From what I've seen of him, don't think so. Hope I'm wrong though.

 

[Danyaalr01]

Is Khushdil a good back foot player?

No clue. Can't tell in domestic due to slow bowlers and slow pitches. I doubt they bowl much short stuff in domestic .

 

[Asif321]

iftikhar only looks a batsmen

 

[IAJ]

Ae apna pai Haris ari test cricket khaidan aye nay?

 

[Amirforpresident]

There is Some bounce so that should suite Musa with his hit the deck hard kind of bowling.

 

[hussain.r97]

My problem with him is that he is too old. This might be the last purple patch of his career. To be fair, nothing excites me about Pakistan cricket anymore. Everything looks like a false dawn to me, maybe except Babar.

Definitely isn't a long term solution, he's got max 3-4 years in him. Wish he was 5 years younger.

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

I wonder who will sit out to accommodate Iftikhar in the Test lineup.

Azhar Ali will probably open.

 

[Mamoon]

Think we have to accept we are a small team now. The expectations need to be lowered.

It is a total mess. We have below average players and entitled fans. It is terrible combination.

 

[Danyaalr01]

iftikhar only looks a batsmen

He hasn't bowled in this series, they should try him against a leftie.

 

[Pete Rose]

This a very short charity tour. The coach has to be ruthless and play guys who have the confidence of form behind them. Can’t play guys who are coming from Pakistan who will lose at a least one game before finding their stride

 

[Amirforpresident]

They need to target Agar there is No other bowler these batsmen can hit against

 

[ARK Rafay]

Billy bowled 148kph :wow

 

[MenInG]

At his height, can get hit the deck hard at the right length though? That is crucial at Perth.

Irfan's ruthless

Keep crying

 

[szundercover]

Runs against Australia in Australia is no joke.

 

[shortbread]

No offence, but it's annoying if you repeat the same point every 5 minutes!

 

[ARK Rafay]

Need 160 here at least

 

[Pete Rose]

Irfan's ruthless

I think you meant toothless

 

[shah_1]

You need players that have arrays of shot around the ground but we have Imam, Haris and Rizwan in the T20 team.

Haris will duck every bouncer

 

[ARK Rafay]

Haris needs to take on Agar.

 

[Amirforpresident]

Wth is Haris doing?????

 

[Pete Rose]

Need 160 here at least

It’s possible, but Panicstan

 

[ARK Rafay]

No point getting to a 130 score.

 

[Pete Rose]

If Frankenstein ever decided to bowl

 

[JibranAnsari]

Haris isnt a t20 player. The selector and the coach , both need to understand this.

 

[King_Kohli]

Wth is Haris doing?????

playing anchor role

 

[Bilal Ahmad15]

Wth is Haris doing?????

He is preparing for the test series

 

[shah_1]

Wth is Haris doing?????

He is being a chicken

 

[Pete Rose]

Pakistan are playing better than the previous two t20’s

 

[hussain.r97]

We desperately need Sharjeel Khan back.

 

[Danyaalr01]

I think you meant toothless

 

[shortbread]

Ae apna pai Haris ari test cricket khaidan aye nay?

Let him play supporting role to Ifthikar till the 16th over. Then let Imad, Shadab, Amir loose with the bat! No point trying to score and losing more wickets now.

 

[ARK Rafay]

Agar the heir to Lyon. Lol

 

[Bilal Ahmad15]

Haris is out 8 (15). What a waste if an innings

 

[Danyaalr01]

Ifti is looking solid.

 

[shah_1]

Waseem you are a disaster for hiring Misbah

 

[Amirforpresident]

Well atleast Khushdil will get the chance to play against a spinner

 

[JibranAnsari]

This should be it for haris in t20s.

 

[m.shah]

Haris gone

 

[Danyaalr01]

Wth is Haris doing?????

Haris can't play t20s. If you bowl short he will duck all day.

 

[shortbread]

Let him play supporting role to Ifthikar till the 16th over. Then let Imad, Shadab, Amir loose with the bat! No point trying to score and losing more wickets now.

Well he thought otherwise!

 

[Bilal Ahmad15]

Time for Khushdil Shah to bat

 

[Usman Chadda]

Haris shouldn't play Tests. He has been completely exposed against the pace and bounce of these wickets.

 

[Energy]

Haris has flopped big time. Couldn't even get a half volley away. Difficult times for Pakistan. Torrid selections and flop heroes. Will be losing many fans soon.

 

[JibranAnsari]

A lot of pressure on khushdil , one chance and he has to perform
.

 

[Pete Rose]

I assume after playing this t20 series Haris Sohail has lost his confidence for the test games, because mentally weak is the only skill we bring to Australia

 

[Amirforpresident]

On a diff note: Agar looks literally 10-15 years onder without hair

 

[Mamoon]

Waseem you are a disaster for hiring Misbah

ECB hit the jackpot by getting rid of him.

 

[shah_1]

I assume after playing this t20 series Haris Sohail has lost his confidence for the test games, because mentally weak is the only skill we bring to Australia

Iftikhar should play

 

[JibranAnsari]

Iftikhar seems like a very good odi batsman.

 

[Pete Rose]

I think Pakistan played agar well in his first over. Got over eager in this game

 

[hussain.r97]

Don't understand why half our team plays all the formats. Aside from Babar, and maybe Ifti and Khushdil , none of these players belong in T20s. Pick some stroke makers, Haris will duck to bouncers all day in Tests but can't score off them to save his life.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Azhar should open in tests and leave room for both haris and iftikhar
.

 

[Kroll]

Man, our batting is so impotent.

 

[Mamoon]

I think Pakistan played agar well in his first over. Got over eager in this game

over-agar.

Bismillah khan would have been a better choice as an wicketkeeper for T20is,What do you reckon?

 

[hussain.r97]

Don't mind giving him a go, got nothing to lose.

No players. PSL has badly exposed the talent in Pakistan cricket.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Misbah is extremely shrewd , got rid of akmal and shehzad and now succesfully on his way back to two more 35 plus back in the side.
