Bangladesh vs Pakistan | Asia Cup: Super Four | Abu Dhabi | Sep 26, 2018 | Pakistan Innings

[Cpt. Rishwat]

Malik is too good for the Bengalis.

No more wickets to fall.

Says a lot about the quality of Pakistan's top order if he's the most consistent batsman.

 

[rollingstoned]

No matter what you do if you don't get Malik's wicket soon You are gone Bangladesh. He is not an idiot like the other batsmen. He plays percentage cricket.

Product of a different and more dominant and self confident era of pakistan cricket and it shows. Despite how limited he is. His wicket really is the game here.

 

[Hasan123]

Malik is our last hope.

 

[Acricfan]

I thought these players were the beginning of a golden age

 

[DeadBall]

Us Pakistani fans coping mechanism ... One gets out due to idiocy or brain fade ... chalo kuch nahi aglai ka din hai aaj, next one will hit a century.

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

Maiden.

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

All is not well in Pakistan camp, its been like this throughout the tournament.

 

[Asif321]

Sarfraz again threw his wicket should have been little calm
But as always he want to show I’m being positive and tends to be brainless

 

[Saurav]

Fakhar has made his name in the history books regardless of what he does now.

Maybe he needs some time off to get into the right mindset.

Maybe getting found out now?

Technically he's not very good

 

[Fineline]

I wish we had Misbah and Afridi.Even a 44 year old Misbah and 40 year old long gone Afridi would have played better than these bunch of morons!

 

[srh]

Imam should not play at this level

 

[pillionrider]

This is going well. I think I'll go have a nap.

Maybe you are having a nap and this is a nightmare

 

[Pete Rose]

Pretty much looks like a wicket coming every delivery

 

[jnaveen1980]

Product of a different and more dominant and self confident era of pakistan cricket and it shows. Despite how limited he is. His wicket really is the game here.

Yes He is from Inzi era.

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

bar Malik no one left in the team capable of playing long inning.

 

[babajee]

Shady should come in at 6 today.

 

[Thomaskutty]

30 overs of Malik tuk tuk can get Pakistan close here.

 

[happydavy]

CT 2017 looks more and more like a fluke. Just got red hot for a couple of matches and bam, they were champs.

Pak needs to be in finals to have full excitement. BD is fine, but Pak will be better to watch in finals.

If CT2017 was fluke of the year then WC92 was fluke of the decade. A combination of massive luck and a couple of good matches and bamn world cup. Don't think there has been any WC where the team lost to like half teams on the tournament.

 

[Fahdi]

Mashrafe is smart. He knows you can bog down Imam and build pressure.

 

[Ned Flanders]

Pakistan to win this, calm down people.

 

[MRSN]

Sarfraz leading from the front again . His fans had the nerve to do banghra over restricting a team from 12-3 to 239.

Awful awful awful player.

But but but he should bat at 4. Lol this clown will survive new ball?

 

[Ned Flanders]

But but but he should bat at 4. Lol this clown will survive new ball?

Fair enough.

 

[Fineline]

Fakhar has given his wicket away in every single match!His failures has more to do with his brainless approach than technique!

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

If B'desh can somehow get Malik in the next 5 overs, it will be an uphill task thereafter with only all rounders/ hitters left.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Was like Akram only 50mph slower. good ball.

 

[saeedhk]

We all talk about poor team selection. But who do we select?? There are no quality players in Pakistan. Biwling used be our strength but that’s regressing also. Better not talk about batting. Other than Sharjeel, no one else in Pakistan can play modern cricket. Too many 1 dimensional cricketers in Pakistan

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Malik has nerves of steel. Only he can take Pakistan out of this situation.

 

[RainMan_]

Fizz is bringing the ball back to right handers? Haven't seen him to bowl in-swing before.

 

[Hasan123]

But but but he should bat at 4. Lol this clown will survive new ball?

Also he doesn't have the stamina to bat at 4. Rubbish player.

 

[Fineline]

Pakistan to win this, calm down people.

We don't deserve to!

 

[happydavy]

Mashrafe is smart. He knows you can bog down Imam and build pressure.

Spare that hate mate. Iman hadn't even played 5 balls before 2 wkts fell. Only in Pakistan one player gets the blame of everyone's wkts.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Maybe getting found out now?

Technically he's not very good

Maybe. Time will tell.

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

Malik has nerves of steel. Only he can take Pakistan out of this situation.

And rest of them have brain of steel.

 

[Baigel]

We don't deserve to!

Who are you to decide that? Unlike you people actually care about who wins and losses

 

[Nikhil_cric]

idiot missed a run out . I almost broke my TV

If BD lose now it will be because of him . Very poor awareness

 

[Hasan123]

Come on Malik.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Nice defensive play by both batsmen.

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

All is not well in Pakistan camp, its been like this throughout the tournament.

Agreed, all is not well in the camp. The batsmen are not very good if you want to be more specific.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Fizz is bringing the ball back to right handers? Haven't seen him to bowl in-swing before.

Bowled inswing in that test against South Africa 2015

 

[Big Mac]

Maybe you are having a nap and this is a nightmare

Well I'll go have a nap inside my nightmare and it will still be more interesting than Inception.

 

[Asif321]

Need huge huge inning from these 2 . After this we have Asif lol

 

[castortroy]

Saves pak from another humiliation at the hand of India I guess.

Such a pathetic team with one of the worst batting line ups in world cricket. The likes of Bangladesh and Afghan have better batting line ups then us.

Sarfraz has to be sacked or dropped from captaining

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Malik will take Pakistan home here. Shobbyyyy is all class!

 

[pillionrider]

I mean the runrate required isn't much. It's actually a perfect game for Imam and Malik to play their usual games. Pak should get there.

But still enjoying the panic and hopelessness here

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

Pakistan in similar situation as BD

Bangla got better depth batting, imho

 

[Ned Flanders]

I mean the runrate required isn't much. It's actually a perfect game for Imam and Malik to play their usual games. Pak should get there.

But still enjoying the panic and hopelessness here

Funny indeed.

 

[Shutdown Corner]

To be fair, it is more like Bangladesh's second team. Not many major players except Shakib are missing,

Tamim is out too. There used to be a time when Tamim-Shakib *was* the BD team, especially on the various forums (PP, ICF). Thats no longer true, but they are still big components of the core side.

 

[Ilan Bluestone]

We are told that Imam selection is due to nepotism. But what I'm earth do you call Sarfraz selection? Doesn't make the team on keeping or batting merit.

Specialized captain.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Indian fans are praying for a Bangladesh victory, very strange considering they are dominating Pak

 

[Ned Flanders]

Bangla got better depth batting, imho

Pakistan will win due to Bangladesh having a minnow mentality.

 

[Amion171]

Meanwhile Shrilankan board has lodged official complaint to ICC with asia cup schedule

They are the only team which missed out on the FUN of playing against this Pakistan team

Should we get Shri Lankans back for one game against Pak ?

 

[Hasan123]

Specialized captain.

Struggles in that role too.

 

[Asif321]

Malik should be given noble prize if he bails us out here

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

Bangladesh were 13-3 after 6.3
We are 11 runs ahead. We are still better than bangladesh so far.

 

[Fineline]

Who are you to decide that? Unlike you people actually care about who wins and losses

Stop being so emotional!I am as much of a fan as others are but this team clearly doesn't have the guts to face bigger teams.If we donot criticize them for their pathetic performances,we are of no use!

 

[worldwidecricket]

If Malik is out, game is for BD. Only Malik can win this for PK from this position.
But nice game though, a MINNOW is hitting another MINNOW!.

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

we need Afridi, Bangladesh really scared of him!!

 

[Shafi]

Our batsmen can't even play Mashrafee. We will all out under 20 if Bumra and Bhubi ball here

 

[happydavy]

Meanwhile Shrilankan board has lodged official complaint to ICC with asia cup schedule

They are the only team which missed out on the FUN of playing against this Pakistan team

Should we get Shri Lankans back for one game against Pak ?

Hehe who will lead Lanka - Chandimal or Mathews?

 

[PerfectionPersonified]

imam reaction on 125kph ….lol mate thunderbolts

 

[Baigel]

Sarfaraz is the Asghar Afghan of Pakistan

 

[pillionrider]

Indian fans are praying for a Bangladesh victory, very strange considering they are dominating Pak

Keep your chin up

 

[Zerotohero]

Indian fans are praying for a Bangladesh victory, very strange considering they are dominating Pak

Where ???? Coping mechanism ???

 

[Ilan Bluestone]

Struggles in that role too.

Didn't say he was good

 

[mak36]

Who just compared Mortaza to Vaas?

 

[happydavy]

Indian fans are praying for a Bangladesh victory, very strange considering they are dominating Pak

It's sadness out here. No one wants to play final against Bangladesh, no fun in winning Asia cup without Pakistan thrashing

 

[babajee]

Haris would have destroyed Bangladesh here.

 

[Hasan123]

Imam showing more guts than best captain since IK.

 

[kuskash]

Some fans have disappeared already.

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

Chowka

 

[Shafi]

So Fakhar score 210 against Zimbabwe but scored 3 duck. What a hack of players we have

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

games gone

 

[DuckMaster]

Get champion Malik out, BD. Quick.

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

Aik aur chowka

 

[Fineline]

If anybody can win this for us,its Mian!

 

[MMHS]

Sarfaraz is the Asghar Afghan of Pakistan

Asghar Afghan is million times better Captain than this cheerleader, don't insult people.

He makes the AFG team on merit and he leads his side quite tactfully - similar total & Indian openers put 100+ yesterday, from there on he choked them for 10 wickets. He was excellent against every team as Captain.

 

[Imran Hasan]

Mash is doing wrong here with Fizz continue to bowl. Perhaps he is going for kill but I think this is the time for part time bowlers as Pak would bat slowly next few overs.

 

[AFM]

We were favourites to win this Asia Cup )

 

[Hasan123]

These 2 should just aim to get set for now . Then take it from there.

 

[Invincible Gujjar]

mustafiz is very likeable player.
