Comfortable four wicket victory for England in 2nd ODI against Pakistan

[shah_1]

Yasir is a poor ODI bowler

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Azhar is such a rubbish captain

 

[Pete Rose]

need to bring on Imad for a while again in place of Yasir

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Yasir is painful to watch in ODIs. Trash

 

[shah_1]

Wahab has to be the most overrated ODI bowler

I would have picked him if there was no two new balls rule

 

[Mainul]

I swear i won't watch Pakistan playing an ODI again.

A proper and deserving no 9 in ODI ranking.

 

[hadi123]

Amir coming back. Won't make a difference. 2-0 down

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Hope people who wanted Yasir to play are having fun

 

[Watsupdoc]

Yasir is too easy to play for them for some reason with the White ball

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Lol Yasir has six wickets in one game against Zim. A minnow side won't take him in ODIs. I'd rather have Graeme Cremer

 

[Muhammad10]

What kind of a weird philosophy is this. So what if xyz player does this defensive batting everyday. His job is to go out there and score runs. If he cant take a single off ten balls, it is a symptom of a wider disease. I will wait till bowler makes a mistake, because my shots are so limited, or my courage is so low that I cant maneuver it to anywhere for a single. Oh and nobody will say anything to me because I am just a baby in a team of underperformers.

Everyday? Did you miss his 45 (50) on ODI debut (the only other ODI he's ever played)? Any idea what his List A SR is? That might give you an idea of how he bats 'everyday'. First get rid of seniors who set such examples over a large sample set, then you can start condemning a youngster for doing it once.

 

[shah_1]

Pakistan deserving 9th ranked

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Possible reverse swing is our only hope now

 

[shah_1]

You can't create any pressure with this target

 

[shah_1]

4 fast bowlers formation did well in the WC so don't know why they haven't repeated this?

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Better over

 

[Justcrazy]

England require another 132 runs with 8 wickets and 25.0 overs remaining

 

[Adijazz1706]

Nawaz could be brought back to replace Yasir.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

4 fast bowlers formation did well in the WC so don't know why they haven't repeated this?

That made our batting too weak and we don't have a fast bowling all rounder in the squad

 

[Justcrazy]

4 fast bowlers formation did well in the WC so don't know why they haven't repeated this?

The batting would become too weak.

 

[shah_1]

Yasir is being treated like a part timer

I miss Afridi(2003-2011 wala) ... he knew how to break partnership,

 

[shah_1]

That made our batting too weak and we don't have a fast bowling all rounder in the squad

Imad can play as a spinner

 

[Justcrazy]

Yasir again showing that different team needs to be played in different formats

 

[Justcrazy]

Imad can play as a spinner

Still batting is weak , you cannot have tail starting from 7

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Amir has bowled so well today

 

[Pete Rose]

Everyday? Did you miss his 45 (50) on ODI debut (the only other ODI he's ever played)? Any idea what his List A SR is? That might give you an idea of how he bats 'everyday'.

These are all excuses. See my last innings, see my average, look at the other guys, but dont look at me.

 

[adarsh_bang]

Yasir came close to getting Morgan in the previous over. deserved a wicket there. Don't want to talk about what's happened to Shami and co in the other game

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Can these clowns hit the stumps

 

[shah_1]

The batting would become too weak.

Imad Wasim at 7

Amad Butt is 138 to 140 kph bowler and he and Hasan Ali can bat

 

[Adijazz1706]

Inner circle fielders too deep, allowing easy singles.

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

England killing us softly.

 

[Justcrazy]

250 was never going to challenge Poms , they are far too superior.

 

[Rayyman]

England killing us softly.

I thought they would be bottled out for under 100 on this green mamba?

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

I thought they would be bottled out for under 100 on this green mamba?

Should have been, but we haven't bowled well enough.

 

[Adijazz1706]

I'm dreading facing WI in the T20s in UAE already, this series is gone it seems.

 

[Justcrazy]

Imad Wasim at 7

Amad Butt is 138 to 140 kph bowler and he and Hasan Ali can bat

Brother , you can say that they can bat , but at International cricket its not easy . Imad is not a consistent batter. Pakistan top order is too weak to go with such players. Gul also scored some runs , that does not make him all rounder.

 

[Justcrazy]

I'm dreading facing WI in the T20s in UAE already, this series is gone it seems.

Pakistan cannot beat WI in 20 20 . In 50 overs it will be close.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Another over of milking

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Amir's side reversing. Should check the other ball now.

 

[shah_1]

Nawaz and Yamin have similar capablity, I don't see better options but Hafeez can prolong his career by passing the bowling test.

 

[Adijazz1706]

Why are we bowling out Amir when Imad has bowled only 4 overs?

 

[Justcrazy]

Yasir has been a big disappointment .

 

[Adijazz1706]

Good over that, maiden.

 

[Sherlock]

Can anyone tell me why Azhar spread the field so quickly after Morgan's initial deliveries?

Root and Morgan have milked the bowling easily again.

 

[Strike!]

The first real over of any swing and England batsman struggle.

 

[Pete Rose]

Very well bowled. Maybe time for a return for Junaid khan is he is fit. Wahab it seems to know nothing about taking wickets in odi's

 

[Justcrazy]

Nawaz and Yamin have similar capablity, I don't see better options but Hafeez can prolong his career by passing the bowling test.

That is the point you said.

They have to be played , not because they deserve , but lack of options.

 

[Pete Rose]

Can anyone tell me why Azhar spread the field so quickly after Morgan's initial deliveries?

Root and Morgan have milked the bowling easily again.

because morgan kept swatting wahab and yasir four boundaries....?

 

[Justcrazy]

Imad back on .

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Amir is so good. It's reversing so try Wahab

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Genius, you might wanna bring a pacer on to see if the other ball is reversing.

 

[Pete Rose]

Why are we bowling out Amir when Imad has bowled only 4 overs?

because they need a wicket? and not just tight bowling?

 

[gunner]

Try Hassan Ali from other end

 

[Pete Rose]

Nasser mentioned that Root struggles vs left arm spin

 

[Rayyman]

Try Hassan Ali from other end

Riaz is at fine leg.

 

[Sherlock]

because morgan kept swatting wahab and yasir four boundaries....?

That was after the initial attacking field. He bought Wahab on and all he did was bowl short and into Morgan. Yasir came on later and likewise when the field was already spread.

 

[Taaya]

Root has gotten so many inside edges today. Babar got one and it went off the pads to the stumps. We need to catch a break here.

 

[ViciousMachine]

This team is a joke... been absolutely totally dominated so far (in both ODIs). We'll be lucky to win an ODI against a legit team the remainder of the year.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Yaar get Wahab on with the other ball

 

[hadi123]

We will lose by 8 wickets. Shameful

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Shot

 

[Justcrazy]

Too many boundaries here.

 

[Pete Rose]

That was after the initial attacking field. He bought Wahab on and all he did was bowl short and into Morgan. Yasir came on later and likewise when the field was already spread.

not not really. he a slip and all that jazz that make pp'ers think aggressive captaincy, but yasir was going for too many reasons.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Can't watch this any more. Watching India WI

 

[New Yorker]

number of wickets for Wahab Riaz his last 10 ODIs

0-20...(today)
0-20
0-30
1-51
0-67
0-70
0-23
3-43
0-29
0-24

The legend marches on

 

[Pete Rose]

wahab here to accelerate things.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan would be lucky to avoid white wash in this series.

 

[Rayyman]

wahab here to accelerate things.

I'd rather lose quickly.

 

[Pete Rose]

Pakistan needed this series to understand the issues that plague it and more importantly to get over the delusion that a few changes will solve the problem.

 

[imshally81]

Bad Squad Selection haunted us... Need Rahat n Sohail khan in Odi team

 

[dirk diggler]

We should reserve 5 match series only for zim lanka or WI .

 

[castortroy]

Starc definitely a league ahead of all the left arm bowlers going around

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

We aren't good enough, England is too good.

 

[Syed1]

This is a very depressing state of affairs. The naive kid that I was growing up in the 90s, I thought we would always be in the top 3 teams of the world.

 

[Lords]

Wahab lost a lot of weight.
Pura cehra bhi pichak gaya

 

[Pete Rose]

very quiet, the pakistani fielders.

 

[castortroy]

England batting is too strong for Pak and Pak batting line is probably the weakest in ODI cricket

Definitely whitewash

 

[Pete Rose]

Bad Squad Selection haunted us... Need Rahat n Sohail khan in Odi team

issue is batting not bowling...and its not a selection issue, but the approach.
