Bangladesh v Pakistan | 2015 World Cup | Warm-up Match | 9th February 2015 | Sydney

[hur rizvi]

Akmal is keeping, this means Sarfraz may get dropped for India game to accomodate Yasir shah

 

[Justcrazy]

A partnnership developing , slowly but steadily.

 

[ahanank]

Bowling now

That's my bad, then.
I have a scorecard that doesn't even have his name on it..lmao
So called media now a days.

 

[mon858]

dont think its a done deal, will likely depend on how our batting fires in these 2 games.

 

[adnan yasin]

 

[ahanank]

Akmal has every shot in his book while sarfraz heavily relies on the sweep shot which is not really a good option not to mention dangerous as well.
My vote goes to Akmal.

 

[shary16]

dont think its a done deal, will likely depend on how our batting fires in these 2 games.

much depends upon how umar akmal bats, because sarfaraz missed 2 stumps in the previous NZ match

 

[hur rizvi]

dont think its a done deal, will likely depend on how our batting fires in these 2 games.

yes depends on batting performance of Sarfraz and maqsood, Who will perform will take Hafeez's place in line-up, dont think Jamshed will play 1st game

 

[Professor]

match isn't even at halfway stage. some are jumping as like Pakistan has already won it

Have to give credit to you BD fans, despite 50 something consecutive defeats against Pakistan, you guys still think you can beat us. Thats good attitude.

 

[timeflies]

Sarfraz is now on the field but not keeping. As 15 players are allowed, I think he will be batting. I guess they'll see how he bats vs Umar

 

[hur rizvi]

Akmal has every shot in his book while sarfraz heavily relies on the sweep shot which is not really a good option not to mention dangerous as well.
My vote goes to Akmal.

All 3 (Maqsood, Sarfraz and Akmal ) should be playing ideally with Team man sitting on the bench

 

[ahanank]

Maqsood is a rare find for a country that lacks in the batting department for now.
No wonder he is also being considered as a long-term option for captaincy in the future.

 

[hur rizvi]

Sarfraz is now on the field but not keeping. As 15 players are allowed, I think he will be batting. I guess they'll see how he bats vs Umar

I think it is maqsood vs Sarfraz

Umar will play for sure and One of Sarfraz/Maqsood will take Hafeez's spot

 

[timeflies]

thanks buddy nice pics! are they getting swing i mean sohail? there are clouds all over

Yeah it is quite cloudy. Sohail's figures look good because of the huge pressure on BD at the start, they just didn't get going. I don't think he got much movement but didn't ball badly with his line and length. He's not very quick though

 

[ahanank]

And I hope by that you mean, Younis? lol
Afridi is well...you can't count him out.

 

[Justcrazy]

Both batters now have got set.

 

[Professor]

Seems like Afridi's bowling has given a bit of momentum to the BD batting.

 

[Strike Rate]

Yes he bowl around 130-135

 

[hur rizvi]

And I hope by that you mean, Younis? lol
Afridi is well...you can't count him out.

Afridi is extremely valuable ATM, only All-rounder we have

 

[ahanank]

Seems like Afridi's bowling has given a bit of momentum to the BD batting.

Warm-up matches don't count towards your international milestones..remember?
Motivation is lacking in this case?

 

[adnan yasin]

Some more pics please.... try and get the pics of the players.

 

[desi_launda]

Is the ball moving around?24 overs gone and just 80 runs

 

[ahanank]

It's not gonna happen in Adelaide

the spirit of sohail is bowling now:

Bowling Overs Maidens Runs Wickets Extras Dot Balls
Mohammad Irfan 4 1 8 1 2 w 21
Sohail Khan 6 0 18 1 1 w 23
Wahab Riaz 5 0 13 0 3 w 23
Shahid Afridi 6 0 30 0 1 w 14
Yasir Shah 3 0 10 0 9
Haris Sohail 0.5 0 2 0

 

[cricfan967]

The bright side of them not showing this game is bigger anticipation for the Pak vs Eng broadcast tomorrow

 

[Justcrazy]

79 / 2

24 overs

 

[mon858]

dude its not tomorrow its wed (tue night for us)

 

[adnan yasin]

Really wanna see akmal play as a wicket keeper batsman...nothing against sarfaraz..but at the moment sarfaraz keeping is mediocre and it will help the team to make a combination.

 

[shary16]

Will this match be televised , if England wraps WI earlier WI 92/7 ATM

Is Irfan playing?

He shouldnt play in warm-ups..

We cant risk an injury to him

 

[mon858]

no way, its being played at small ground, not a proper stadium with camera coverage.

No

 

[mon858]

not under coach waqar, after his spell he probably asked him to come off the field...


....so he could make him do 5 chakkar of the ground..

reminds me of school days punishment for coming late.

 

[mon858]

guys: stop using cricindia scorecard. this one is most accurate/timely updating:
http://www.ecb.co.uk/scorecard/38371

 

[Justcrazy]

93 / 2

27 overs

 

[shary16]

Ehsan Adil should be given few overs as well

 

[axl100mph]

Must be grunting hard though, isn't he?

 

[shary16]

acc to line up written on ECB website, and media reports of yesterday, sohaib is all set to play as an opener in the 2nd inning

 

[Ottoman]

Afridi went for runs today.

30/0 in 6 Overs.

 

[timeflies]

Ehsan Adil should be given few overs as well

He's wearing one of those fluoro orange bibs and running around giving water and other things to players when they need it [emoji14]

 

[mon858]

Ehsan Adil should be given few overs as well

nope. he did too much Ehsaan on NZ batters and didn't do any Adl with the hype.

 

[shary16]

Afridi went for runs today.

30/0 in 6 Overs.

Bang seems to be taking revenge on afridi, for those poor ladies who cried in the asia cup match

 

[ahanank]

Yasir Shah looks promising...
We needed a spinner who could choke in terms of runs and the wickets always come when you do that.
He will be the one to watch out for. Even Shane Warne admired him which is huge.

 

[timeflies]

I spoke to soon, he just came on the field now.

 

[Ottoman]

nope. he did too much Ehsaan on NZ batters and didn't do any Adl with the hype.

Brilliant bro.

 

[adnan yasin]

Sohail khan injured

 

[shary16]

nope. he did too much Ehsaan on NZ batters and didn't do any Adl with the hype.

may b he gives us a breakthrough in this match

 

[ahanank]

nope. he did too much Ehsaan on NZ batters and didn't do any Adl with the hype.

He has the weakest action of all time.

 

[Ottoman]

Bang seems to be taking revenge on afridi, for those poor ladies who cried in the asia cup match

Naa. Whole Bangla wept that day.

 

[mon858]

I spoke to soon, he just came on the field now.

is Sohail Khan off the field? can you confirm the news about his injury? did you see anything?

 

[ahanank]

Bang seems to be taking revenge on afridi, for those poor ladies who cried in the asia cup match

Nope..He just doesn't care enough, it seems.
He is basically irreplaceable and the sad thing is that the pathan is well aware of that.

 

[desi_launda]

Sohail injured,so Pak should abandon next practice match to save players.Otherwise Waqar will play against India

 

[shary16]

Sohail khan injured

minor injury probably..

 

[mon858]

while we have been watching bowling card the whole time, must say smart batting by these two, good partnership here bringing them to a decent position to attack in last 15-20 overs. 150 in last 20 gets them 260, which may be a v good total on this ground/conditions (conditions didn't seem like 300+ dont think this ground is drop in)

 

[ahanank]

Sohail injured,so Pak should abandon next practice match to save players.Otherwise Waqar will play against India

Mountain climbing is not for the weak-hearted.

 

[mon858]

Sohail injured,so Pak should abandon next practice match to save players.Otherwise Waqar will play against India

maybe thats his ultimate plan. train the players so hard that he is forced to play, fulfilling his ultimate dream of playing world cup in australia.

 

[max100]

if sohail is injured, who should replace him? ajmal?

 

[GreenKnightRises]

lol.Panyangara and Coo ran through the NZ line up, sad that the match didn't have a result

 

[shary16]

tamim--59 no
mahmudullah--49 no

 

[Suleiman]

Tamim and Mahmudullah have rebuilt nicely. Bowling will need to step up big time vs India or their batsmen will smash the ball out of shape.

 

[ahanank]

I think I just spent $100 on ESPN for nothing.
Might be looking at a 1st round exit.. 2007 all over again.

 

[ahanank]

mohd sami khushi se jhoom uthe...aur chalaange marte hue.

Aisa na kaho..nazar lag jaaye gi.
Junaid bhi chalaang maark kar bowling krwata thaa...ek zamanay main..lol

 

[adnan yasin]

minor injury probably..

No

 

[timeflies]

is Sohail Khan off the field? can you confirm the news about his injury? did you see anything?

Didn't see anything major happen. Can't see him on the field though

 

[cricfan967]

Sohail Khan injured, and seeing how random our selection has been, who says Shabbir Ahmed can't make the squad

 

[mon858]

Didn't see anything major happen. Can't see him on the field though

hmm, seems more like masala to me then... maybe some random guy at match saw s khan going off the field after his overs and that converted into dunya news special that s khan injured!

 

[shary16]

bhai sab choro, koi OUT kyun nahi ho raha

 

[FreeBird]

Looks like Bangladesh peaking too early

 

[cricfan967]

Faizan Lakhani ‏@faizanlakhani 1m1 minute ago
Team management says Sohail Khan's injury is not serious, but he's unlikely to take further part of today's match as precautionary measure.

 

[shary16]

Aisa na kaho..nazar lag jaaye gi.
Junaid bhi chalaang maark kar bowling krwata thaa...ek zamanay main..lol

ehsan Adil ko bhi unjury ho gi jald hi

 

[adnan yasin]

PAkistan bowlers are not getting any wickets against bangladesh as well.

 

[ahanank]

bhai sab choro, koi OUT kyun nahi ho raha

That is the dilemma.
We can't get wickets and that's because we can't stop runs from flowing.
It's simple as that.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Bangla Tigers all set to humiliate Pakistan

 

[shary16]

how can a bowler get injured without playing an international match . lolz @ pak cricket

 

[hur rizvi]

Good recovery from Bangladesh

 

[ahanank]

Bangla Tigers all set to humiliate Pakistan

Ssssshhh.. Ireland might be watching and drooling.

 

[shary16]

That is the dilemma.

It's simple as that.

or may be the warm up match is fixed , typical pakistani mindset
