Babar Azam hits 122 as Pakistan [205/1] demolish South Africa [203/5] by 9 wickets in 3rd T20I

This victory will do wonders to Pakistan's confidence when chasing high scores against stronger teams like ENG, Aus and IND. They can now believe to chase down mountains against these teams.
 
Where are the wrist slitters and moaners now ?

As a great man once said, if you cannot support us in the bad times then don't support us in the good times.
 
WOW!!! What a shot..What an expression and what a way to silence critics in a clutch game chasing 200. Phenomenal!!
 
Never seen pak pummel a team like this

Yes the bowling has been awful but brilliant innings by babar
 
Thankyou PCB for this experience

Thankyou Babar Azam for this experience

Thankyou PakPassion for this experience


Is there anyone left to thank??
 
LOL people here compared him to c grade players like Pandey and iyer and other rubbish.
 
Monday - 50 off 50 balls

Today - 100 off 49 balls

Well played Babar! Great response.

10/10 innings. His best knock in white ball cricket so far in his career. Take a bow.
 
Incredible innings from Babar. Hats off to him. 3rd Pakistani to score a 100 in all 3 formats.
 
What the hell Pakistan and Babar Azam?!

You don’t even let some of us give up on you. A player who played possibly the worst T20 knock in recent times now proceeds to hammer the same bowling attack into the ground.
 
Should chase this down under 17 overs. What an absolute belter this pitch!

Congrats to Babar on his first T20I century.:yahoo
 
Great innings from Babar. I just hope that this helps free him from the issues he's had before in terms of chasing and striking the ball. Hope we can see him take his game to the next level
 
Dont want to tag any one but, I agree Babar cant hit and doesnt have gears. :smith

Some cricket fans need to watch more than whats on the surface. Hopefully the predictable excuse of SA’s bowling attack’s quality etc doesnt come in as Babar wasnt given any leverage in the last match when he had a bad day and couldnt time it.
 
What has Babar eaten today?

Yes, the bowling attack is toothless, but still, this is a great performance.

Looks like he's angry after the roasting he received yesterday, specially by Shoaib. :))) :)))
 
Terrific innings from Babar. I just hope that this helps free him from the issues he's had before in terms of chasing and striking the ball. Hope we can see him take his game to the next level
 
These two must not let this match go to the last over. Need to keep playing their shots.
 
Rizwan has also complimented Babar very well from the other end and kept the scoreboard ticking.
 
Badshah Babar or King Babar, i prefer first, what would you? King babar seem like copy of king kohli.
 
It all depends on the pitch and stadium.clearly this is a road and short boundaries
 
Pakistan fans need to stop crying about the bowling. It's mediocre but at the same time, 200 scores are becoming commonplace now in T20 cricket.

It's time for our batsmen to get their big boy pants on and accept it, and chase this down against a depleted SAF attack.

Will re-post this for all those whingeing during the SAF innings thread.

It wasn't a great bowling performance but we need to stop expecting to reduce teams to 140-150 in T20s. It's not 2011.

The format especially on roads like this has evolved into a bat-a-thon, so we need to adjust our expectations accordingly.
 
The worst South African attack I could ever dream of.

This bowling attack reminds me of Zimbabwe's current bowling attack. Even Henry Olanga will school these pacers. Shamsi is a poor man's Ashwin in T20s and he proved it.
 
Hoping for an emphatic 10 wicket win, don't throw it away now.
 
Here we go the SA attack will get scapegoated for what has been an incredible chase regardless.
 
Today’s first innings match thread and 2nd innings match thread just shows that some of our fans need to be bit more level headed.

First thread was all doom and gloom and now Pak cricket is once again shining. Hyping as well as gloom can both be toned down a bit. :smith
