[JibranAnsari]

after wapis Sarhay Anth Ho gaya hay !!

Haha.. Anth nahin aath. Lol

 

[JibranAnsari]

Dammit these dot balls.

 

[Slog]

Sharjeel started like this and upped it just now. Babar might too

I highly doubt Sharjeel had a SR in 70s after 10 balls even

 

[uberkoen]

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Brilliant hitting from Sharjeel

 

[Sarfarazian92]

Babar clearly playing for his average.

 

[On_the_up]

Sharjeel realy raising his stock here.

T20 franchises will be making note.

 

[SaadAliG]

Babar with the worst odi innings in history.

 

[Pollack]

Sharjeel special coming your way.Lighten up pp'ers.

 

[Sarfarazian92]

Sharjeel realy raising his stock here.

T20 franchises will be making note.

Big Bash contract next year maybe?

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Babar clearly playing for his average.

He's already showing the Akmal genes apparently

 

[uberkoen]

Another one!!

 

[mango_bite77]

Sharjeel is the only player who has improved his game throughout the series. Scoring 18,29,50,74 and 76* clearly shows he has intend to improve his game.

 

[SaadAliG]

Babar clearly playing for his average.

He did play for his 1000 runs in 3rd ODI which killed the momentum provided by Sharjeel. The Akmal blood is really showing.

 

[fazleefridi]

18
29
50
74
76*

MA Sharjeel improving day by day

 

[Naim]

Babar atleast take a single

 

[PerfectionPersonified]

Babar is poor today

 

[Yaasir]

Babar is so terrible. An extremely selfish player just like his cousins.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Babar is learning from the best

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Is it really surprising that Akmal (An absolute hack with a history of Making Trouble) joins the squad and Babar, who was the rising superstar of this team, suddenly forgot how to bat and rotate the strike.

If you really think these two aspects are not connect then clearly people need to educate themselves more on the AKMAL KHANDAN...

 

[waleed88]

Another selfish knock by Pakistan's favorite son

 

[Slog]

Lo jee!

Babar SR is 60s now

 

[PerfectionPersonified]

Babar cant play at 100 strike rate. Kills the momentum.

 

[uberkoen]

Selfish innings from Babar.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Rrr ponay no again.

 

[waleed88]

Batting for his 50.. what did Shoaib Malik do so wrong in the previous game.. he was playing with a strike rate of 68 too

 

[Sarfarazian92]

He wasn't a good rotator of strike to begin with. Even in WI series, he only had a quick start in the last match.

 

[JibranAnsari]

If Babar doesn't end up his innings at the sr of 110 plus then it would be a waste of an innings

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

He wasn't a good rotator of strike to begin with. Even in WI series, he only had a quick start in the last match.

Kick out Akmal yar, and then see the result. This same Babar will become a gun batsman all over again !! His cousin influence is really killing any sort of ability he holds at the moment.

 

[fazleefridi]

MA sharjeel..

Mates, I am really impressed with his strike rotation

 

[Sarfarazian92]

Kick out Akmal yar, and then see the result. This same Babar will become a gun batsman all over again !! His cousin influence is really killing any sort of ability he holds at the moment.

He didn't do anything vs England too lol

 

[Slog]

Sharjeel is the only player who has improved his game throughout the series. Scoring 18,29,50,74 and 76* clearly shows he has intend to improve his game.

as i said he has been improving his game ever since he came in the side a year ago. Ive actually followed his career closely and he looks a vastly improved player (batsmanship wise - forget record) to the guy who returned under waqar and afridi for asia cup.

The A tour to england really helped and i think the time he spent with the coaching staff when on bench in NZ and Aus series also worked well

if he can improve his fitness and start looking like an international athlete he can be a world class cricketer because he certainly has the right attitude towards working on his batting

 

[JibranAnsari]

He wasn't a good rotator of strike to begin with. Even in WI series, he only had a quick start in the last match.

Yet his innings have low percentage of boundaries. He struggled early in the innings in the series with rotation but was good in 75 percent of his innings.

 

[PerfectionPersonified]

Babar pls

 

[JibranAnsari]

Babar get out now buddy.

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

He didn't do anything vs England too lol

Just Kick Out Akmal !!!

 

[hadi123]

Babar Azam is playing a selfish innings

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Sharjeel you

Babar Azam trying his best to lose Pakistan the game.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Sharjeel gine

 

[JibranAnsari]

Sharjeel pressured out by poor stuff by azam.

 

[PerfectionPersonified]

Babar caused this wicket

 

[shah_1]

Really poor from Babar

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

And There Goes the game

Thanks For Coming Everyone !!

 

[Shafi]

Head is way better than Babar in shot range and brain

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Why yaar Sharjeel

how did he get out?

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Starc gets Sharjeel.

 

[Big Mac]

I highly doubt Sharjeel had a SR in 70s after 10 balls even

You're right.

His strike rate after 10 balls was 20.

 

[On_the_up]

And now the slide will start.

Can PAK get 300 at least?

Akmal really needs to come to the party today. Very disappointing series for him.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

What a waste once again by Sharjeel throws away the perfect opportunity to finish the tour with a 100.

 

[waleed88]

The only player that can play above the strike rate of 100 today is out..

We are left only left with 'two once in generation batsmen now'

The first one is about to reach his 50, and has probably booked himself for the rest of 2017..

 

[JibranAnsari]

Babar still struggling

 

[90MPH]

Babar's bottom hand is too tight, hence some of the miscues shots.

He needs to identify and rectify quickly because it's hampering his off side game.

 

[Slog]

And There Goes the game

Thanks For Coming Everyone !!

lol honestly it was gone long time ago because of 80s odi batting from the other end

but was enjoying sharjeels progress

 

[Shafi]

Scoring 250 should be a great achievement for us.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Well Pakistan have found their long term ODI opener I suppose. Just need to replace Azhar.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Now hafeez will also take a lot of time to start.

 

[fazleefridi]

Sharjeel scored 250 runs in 5 matches, at 100+ str.rate and an average of 50, against full strength Aussie attack.

And still some people would say, he's riding his luck.

We know where these people come from.

Typical Shezi fans

 

[Sarfarazian92]

If IPL allowed Pakistani players, then Sharjeel could've been one of the most expensive buys potentially.

 

[Slog]

What a waste once again by Sharjeel throws away the perfect opportunity to finish the tour with a 100.

lol 50 average with a 115 SR on an Australia tour is unchartered, dream territory for Pakistani batsmen

 

[Slog]

If IPL allowed Pakistani players, then Sharjeel could've been one of the most expensive buys potentially.

he'll play in England t20s and one days next summer and that should be good for his development esp with WC in sight

 

[waleed88]

50 of 75 balls...

Virat needs to salute this man

 

[90MPH]

Sharjeel played a decent knock but needs big hundrerds.

Can't blame him today as the RR was too high.

His off side game has improved tremendously which is heartening.

 

[Pollack]

Well Pakistan have found their long term ODI opener I suppose. Just need to replace Azhar.

Umar akhmal should open along with him as a final chance for him.

 

[Slog]

You're right.

His strike rate after 10 balls was 20.

haha really or youre just kidding?

 

[Sarfarazian92]

he'll play in England t20s and one days next summer and that should be good for his development esp with WC in sight

Yeah I think they signed him up last season as well but he couldn't play due to international commitments.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Babar has looked really limited in this innings.

 

[street cricketer]

Babar has killed the chase here.

 

[Slog]

Umar akhmal should open along with him as a final chance for him.

so umar akmal cant bat at #5,6 so he should be rewarded with a spot elsewhere?

whats the strategy? keep on trying him everywhere rather than doing the obvious act?

 

[Nikhil_cric]

haha really or youre just kidding?

Sharjeel was very slow today for a while.

 

[Sarfarazian92]

this guy isn't China ka Kohli.

He's lyari ka Kohli.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Umar akhmal should open along with him as a final chance for him.

Its akmals last game for a long time.

 

[Belawal2014]

Shahzadesque innings from Babba.

 

[Slog]

If IPL allowed Pakistani players, then Sharjeel could've been one of the most expensive buys potentially.

if ipl had allowed Pak players Umar Akmal for certain would have been part of it in the early years

he was hot property in 2009/10

even YK and Misbah found a deal lol!

 

[Shafi]

Disappointing with Babar!!!! Very limited batsman

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Umar akhmal should open along with him as a final chance for him.

That ship sailed a long time ago. Umars rightful place I'd outside this team. Pakistan need a fresh face as an opener. Not further reliance on TTF's

 

[street cricketer]

Babar's bottom hand is too tight, hence some of the miscues shots.

He needs to identify and rectify quickly because it's hampering his off side game.

Kohli is a strong bottom hand player as well.

 

[Pollack]

so umar akmal cant bat at #5,6 so he should be rewarded with a spot elsewhere?

whats the strategy? keep on trying him everywhere rather than doing the obvious act?

I am not pakistani. I said that dispassionately.I think you can give him one final chance at opening with clear indication to play modern day cricket along with sharjeel.

 

[Belawal2014]

Only thing in defense of him I'd say is that he's young and he'll learn a lot from this tour.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Professor departs

 

[Big Mac]

haha really or youre just kidding?

Really. He had 2 runs from 10 balls and he followed that up with another dot ball to make it 2 (11).
