Australia v Pakistan | 5th ODI | Adelaide | Jan 26, 2017 | Australia Innings

[Shafi]

Australia still can manage 400 runs. 80 in 6 overs

 

[Watsupdoc]

Sharjeel )

 

[Greenstorm]

just need to get maxwell out now and aus can be restricted to 350.

 

[Pollack]

Head takes awesome doubles .Do not Australia have better batsman available.

 

[yasir]

I don't get it, if you are going to bowl Yorker on off side, how can mid/off up on circle?? - that's stupid,

 

[Archer]

Maxwell gone

 

[Greenstorm]

yeah got him.

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Shambolic stuff from Pak bowlers overall.

 

[Pollack]

That's it no 400 now. Well bowled Pakistan or rather poor played Australia.Don't know what to make out of it.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

I don't get it, if you are going to bowl Yorker on off side, how can mid/off up on circle?? - that's stupid, ������

No captain can be this awful. A schoolboy can set a better field

 

[Shafi]

Poor from Australia. Should be score at least 400 runs

 

[Joseph Gomes]

That's it no 400 now. Well bowled Pakistan or rather poor played Australia.Don't know what to make out of it.

More like poor played Travis Head. Very selfish knock

 

[shariqnoor]

How can you ask you bowler to bowl fuller deliveries and then have mid-off up in the circle?? What kind of captaincy is this?

 

[Archer]

Very selfish from Travis Head, trying to stay not out but good death bowling from Pakistan. Pakistan should look to restrict them to 350

 

[marlonbrowndo]

No long off. Azhar is atrocious

 

[Pollack]

More like poor played Travis Head. Very selfish knock

Always wondered if Australia don't have better batsman than Travis,Chris etc like handscomb not coming through bbl.

 

[yasir]

No captain can be this awful. A schoolboy can set a better field

It's not just Captian, bowler should setup his fielding, at the end his neck is also on the line.

Pakistanis forget the only skill they had, bowling

 

[mango_bite77]

The moment any other Pakistani bowlers start bowling good Wahab's performance declines. Does anyone noticed it ?

 

[Pollack]

Last over from amir was good though.

 

[Abdullah719]

The moment any other Pakistani bowlers start bowling good Wahab's performance declines. Does anyone noticed it ?

What's more noticeable is that Wahab got a bit of a rest and returned and was bowling 150ks today.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Asking the bowler to bowl full and wide with mid off inside. Embarrassing

 

[Archer]

I think Warner made Pakistani bowlers look worse than they actually are. We can ignore that as he is in unbelieveable form. Travis Head's innings should be a benchmark for the performance of the bowlers. How in the world could you let a lhack score a century

 

[Gilly]

Always wondered if Australia don't have better batsman than Travis,Chris etc like handscomb not coming through bbl.

The question should be don't Pakistan have better bowlers than Amir, Wahab and Hasan.

 

[ekpakistani]

Asking the bowler to bowl full and wide with mid off inside. Embarrassing

on cricinfo:

Rizwan: "Why is Azhar persisting with short of length bowling with Mid-on and Mid-off up in the circle with just 57 m boundary. Bowl yorkers, get your mid-on/mid-off back where the boundary is 80m. "

 

[Zeshan547]

"Why is Azhar persisting with short of length bowling with Mid-on and Mid-off up in the circle with just 57 m boundary. Bowl yorkers, get your mid-on/mid-off back where the boundary is 80m. " from CI

 

[Archer]

Does Azhar always want to save Hasan Ali for the final overs even when the damage has been done

 

[arehaan]

What is Azhar Ali upto with the bowling attack.

 

[todfod 11]

How? Junaid has easily out bowled him. So has Riaz

u gotta look the whole pocture bro.. now he takes a wicket

 

[ekpakistani]

Aussies crumbling under pressure . 4 down already .. ha ha (please sense the sarcasm)

 

[imshally81]

 

[Archer]

Wades gone

 

[Gilly]

By selecting club quality bowlers.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

The question should be don't Pakistan have better bowlers than Amir, Wahab and Hasan.

He's not even Pakistani And your commentators are the ones who've been praising Amir all summer. Hasan got a fifer last game

 

[lahoriyah1234]

The question should be don't Pakistan have better bowlers than Amir, Wahab and Hasan.

No We Dont... This is the best we have.

 

[Drreddymd]

Great comeback from pak

 

[ekpakistani]

Head trying to carry the bat

 

[imshally81]

Any Catches drop today ????

 

[Joseph Gomes]

Travis Head innings was the worst ODI century I have watched in the last 5 years. Australia could have easily scored 400+ if he didn't try to stay not out. If you can't score fast in LOI the get yourself out and let others try. Don't consume deliveries to boost average. Awful

 

[ekpakistani]

Any Catches drop today ????

i think you know the answer bro

 

[Archer]

Another one bites the dust, Head gone

 

[imshally81]

t

 

[jnaveen1980]

Australia can declare now and win. But pathetic batting in the slog overs.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

That's not a bloody wide! Awful umpiring this. Waqar is baffled too. The ICC talks about balance between bat and ball and today we've had 3 wides called wrongly. Awful

 

[ekpakistani]

That's not a bloody wide! Awful umpiring this. Waqar is baffled too. The ICC talks about balance between bat and ball and today we've had 3 wides called wrongly. Awful

umpiring has been pathetic to say the least

 

[Pollack]

The question should be don't Pakistan have better bowlers than Amir, Wahab and Hasan.

You need to find one or two more players like handscomb.
You have a gun odi team. Calm down mate.
Pakistan well still live in delusion that they have world class bowling attack.Nothing can be done then.

 

[Greenstorm]

I think Warner made Pakistani bowlers look worse than they actually are. We can ignore that as he is in unbelieveable form. Travis Head's innings should be a benchmark for the performance of the bowlers. How in the world could you let a lhack score a century

exactly, it was just a brilliant innings from warner . Our bowling is not as bad as it is made out to be. 350 is becoming a norm in modern dya ODIs. Good batting teams will back themselves to chase this one . It is energy in the field that is missing. Just need a wicket taking bowler in the middle overs and we can be the best bowling side in LOIs.

 

[Archer]

Its been a mega collapse by Australia, Pakistan style . From 280-0 in 41 to 351-6 in 48

 

[ekpakistani]

Out

 

[Naim]

but its to late for pakistan

 

[imshally81]

i think you know the answer bro

No i just joined.....bro

 

[Pollack]

Pakistan has bowled well death overs. Credit where its due.

 

[Nil Dhumrojal]

At last wahabibi got one

 

[badsha001]

wickets are wickets after all. Does it matter at what point in game we take em?

 

[ekpakistani]

No i just joined.....bro

Amir dropped an easier catch and there was a difficult chance on first ball in slips (Azhar) .. there was probably one more that I can't recall

 

[shariqnoor]

Again we have the mid-off up and Hasan is bowling full outside off. All the boundary fielders are on the leg side and the bowler bowls outside off. Both the captain and the bowler are clueless.

 

[ekpakistani]

3 balls for Hassan to get 5 to score a hundred

 

[Mir jibran]

hassan to score a 100 ?

 

[todfod 11]

hassan ali approaching his first 100

 

[Sarfarazian92]

Cake cutting time for Hassan Ali

 

[Yatoo]

Century for Hassan Ali of 54 balls.
:AAG

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Did they just hit it straight to third man and run 2?

 

[badsha001]

that fielding from junaid tho

 

[Zeshan547]

Terrible over rate, we are already 20 minutes late from schedule time, and still 2 overs left, a suspension on cards for azhar, but hay it's hopefully it's last ODI anyway. So who cares.

 

[Mir jibran]

100 for hassan
i feel very bad for this guy

 

[fazleefridi]

Hasan completes 100of just 54balls.. 190 str rate...

Seam AR Pakistan needed

 

[street cricketer]

Brilliant from Hasan ali..

Gets his hundred off the last ball.

 

[ekpakistani]

100 for Hassan .. well played lad

 

[Naim]

Pathatic fielding. Ball is going to 3rd man and they are running 2 runs wow

 

[Nil Dhumrojal]

100 for*Hasan. Congratulations!!!!

 

[Archer]

Hasan Ali has 9 overs 2-100

 

[Joseph Gomes]

Congrats to Hasan Ali for brilliant century!

 

[todfod 11]

100 for hassan
i feel very bad for this guy

i dont.. he is a terrible bowler who would get thrashed every match..

 

[Archer]

Looks like Pakistan will have to chase 370. Hoping for a Warner-esque innings from Sharjeel and a Head-like innings from Azhar for Pakistan to win the game

 

[Archer]

Run Out! Starc gone

 

[Mir jibran]

i dont.. he is a terrible bowler who would get thrashed every match..

he has bowled pretty well in this series excluding today's game

 

[Sarfarazian92]

100 from the last 10

 

[Shafi]

Australia will win this by 150 runs

 

[mango_bite77]

Hassan Ali's figure's are highly misleading . He surely is a better than that.

 

[Archer]

Picked up 7 wickets and ruined Australia's momentum when they were looking towards 400 and beyond. Have to give credit to Pakistanis where its due. Bowlers bowled smartly and fielders backed them which makes me wonder where they were in the first 40 overs and what inspired them in the last 10

 

[todfod 11]

he has bowled pretty well in this series excluding today's game

he will be exposed soon and will go in wilderness trust me. unless and until he improves his stamina his action and work on a tighter line and length.
