England (155/7) beat Pakistan (154/6) by 3 wickets & win the T20 series 2-1

[silentkiller187]

Real test for qadir here , time to prove he ain’t another parchi

 

[shariqnoor]

It's 100% clear now that Usman Qadir needs to have a MOM performance for Pakistan to win this. The rest of the bowlers are utter rubbish. We have two useless "spinners" in Shadab and Imad.

 

[Titan24]

Hasan Ali is more intelligent bowler than Shaheen.
Showing lot of variations.

More experienced and on top of that played full 4 day season post injury and never looked back. Pak younger pacers need to put in the hard yards, there is no shortcut.

 

[King_Kohli]

Rubbish ball

 

[silentkiller187]

Butler struggling so he’s decided to switch stance.

 

[IMMY69]

Qadir getting smashed...

95-5 to England

 

[silentkiller187]

What kind of fielding placement are these literally ball is rolling to the boundary every time it clears the in field, babar just as much to blame for this shambles of a tour as Misbah

 

[PakFan2010]

Qadir is turning the ball.

 

[ssuhaide]

Tough for Qadir. This game has a 10 wicket win feel about it .

Pakistan being put back in their rightful place.

 

[IMMY69]

Poor poor over that by Qadir.
Leg stump line and either too short or too full.

 

[Titan24]

Need two quick wickets here to make something of this match

 

[Rana]

Pakistan couldnt play a single reverse sweep against Rashid

This is why we are a million years behind every decent limited overs team.

We have Rizwan dancing around like Mithundas against spin as our answer

 

[Rana]

smh for Maqsood

 

[King_Kohli]

Qadir spoiled the moment.
Buttler is struggling clearly.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Of course it’s Maqsood. Garbage fielder

 

[Titan24]

Maqsood’s brilliance in the field

 

[IMMY69]

Maqsood is a pathetic outfielder

Sow slow

Needs to be dropped

 

[ishtiaq_ctg]

Maqsood can't field to save his life.

 

[silentkiller187]

What the hell was that from sohaib..

Butler poor mans rizwan on a serious note if he was Pakistani he would be getting criticised right now on this forum for this innings.

 

[Thephenom]

**** batter and **** fielder, Maqsood needs to be dumped ASAP

 

[King_Kohli]

Excellent catch by Baabar

 

[silentkiller187]

That catch better wake them up

 

[Darkrai]

Super quick Maqsood.

 

[Rana]

10-15 runs too late that wicket

it is clear that we are in a shambles as a cricket team

 

[Titan24]

Top catch from Babar.

We like it or not Shadab is one of the best spinners Pak has currently

 

[sharmaji]

Good catch by Babar. Buttler gone.

 

[MRSN]

Butler not good enough to open. England needs Sharjeel.

 

[MRSN]

Great over by Shadab.

 

[IMMY69]

Shadab bowled beautifully that over

 

[jusarrived]

Good over that from shadab

 

[Ab Fan]

Shadab is a good LOI spinner and a good fielder but a bad batsman.

 

[ishtiaq_ctg]

Pitch is definitely turning big. Pakistan should make it as difficult as possible for England. Let's see what pakistani spinners can do.

 

[sharmaji]

I feel this is going to be a tight match. A few more wickets now and Eng will be in trouble.

 

[PakPremi]

Shadab the cheeta, but Qadir over may have cost the match.

 

[IMMY69]

Qadir keeps bowling short

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

Butler not good enough to open. England needs Sharjeel.

[MENTION=2016]Rana[/MENTION] thoughts?

 

[jusarrived]

Roy is a proper hack, but love the way he bats

 

[Fazzy321]

Man why we didnt reverse sweep at all

 

[King_Kohli]

Much better from Qadir

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Should attack Malan with a more aggressive field. He’s struggled in this whole series

 

[IMMY69]

Qadir not looking good at all.
Bowling looks useless and his action looks off

 

[Ahmed216]

Man why we didnt reverse sweep at all

Because we cant.

 

[Walawalkar]

Game is still in Balance.. Pakistan can chip in with few wickets

 

[Rana]

Much better second over

 

[Titan24]

Man why we didnt reverse sweep at all

Nobody can in over lineup. Atleast i havent seen anybody ever play that

 

[Ab Fan]

I don't understand why people here say that it is hard to understand whether Shadab is a bowler first or a batsman first. He is clearly a much better bowler than a batsman atleast in LOIs.

 

[Walawalkar]

Few tight overs will build pressure on Roy

 

[PakFan2010]

Roy is playing for the team.

Rizwan played for his average.

 

[PakPremi]

Qadir looks nervous getting his first chance on series decider. He needs to slow down his bowling a bit.

 

[Walawalkar]

Roy looking unstoppable today

 

[Rana]

Nobody can in over lineup. Atleast i havent seen anybody ever play that

Rizwan can sweep fast bowlers but is clueless with this shot.

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

Well done Roy. Well done England

Series win

 

[ishtiaq_ctg]

Criminal not to have a slip. England had slip for Livingstone's bowling.

 

[Darkrai]

Pakistan is getting smashed.

 

[sharmaji]

I think Bairstow and Roy make a better opening partners than Buttler and Roy.

 

[Rana]

This has been a torturous tour!

 

[silentkiller187]

Roy wicket would have made it interesting , gonna run away with it now

 

[jusarrived]

You need more than one wicket to put pressure on England, they seems to attack more with a fall of wicket lol

 

[Rana]

Imagine a PSL franchise with this as your top 3:

Babar
Rizwan
Malan

 

[Titan24]

I think Bairstow and Roy make a better opening partners than Buttler and Roy.

Despite Buttler’s success as opener, I have always felt he is more dangerous in the middle as he is better under pressure than quite a few other English batsmen.

 

[silentkiller187]

That sums up our tour that fielding performance, ran past the ball

 

[Rana]

Yeah lets pick Hasnain for no reason in this game

 

[Titan24]

Another extraordinary piece of fielding

 

[jusarrived]

Fielder too fast

 

[silentkiller187]

Imagine a PSL franchise with this as your top 3:

Babar
Rizwan
Malan

Where did rizwan franchise finish in the recent psl , did he open?

 

[silentkiller187]

Too late

 

[Titan24]

You need more than one wicket to put pressure on England, they seems to attack more with a fall of wicket lol

Thats their escape plan and for that they have that bit of extra batting depth.

 

[Walawalkar]

Huge Wicket

 

[Rana]

Where did rizwan franchise finish in the recent psl , did he open?

What were Maqsood's stats in that same PSL?

does it mean jack all?

 

[PakFan2010]

Babar needs to bring the field in.

We need to put pressure on the new batsmen.

 

[IMMY69]

Important wicket...

Now can we put pressure on them?

 

[Titan24]

Atlast a wicket for Qadir. Need atleast two more here quickly

 

[King_Kohli]

How come this guy Roy able to middle the every ball with awkward blind slog/sweep shots?
Finally end card.

 

[Rana]

No respite in this England side. Roy departs, Bairstow walks in.

Pakistan be like, lets give you a breather with Babar+Rizwan, and possibly frighten you with Hafeez+Maqsood+Fakhar

 

[jusarrived]

Thats their escape plan and for that they have that bit of extra batting depth.

They are far more skilled as well than any other linup, else you wont get away with that approach every time

 

[Fazzy321]

So is Roy a hack or nah?

 

[silentkiller187]

Professor time

 

[marlonbrowndo]

So is Roy a hack or nah?

He’s insanely good. Superior Sehwag in limited overs

 

[Titan24]

64 off 36 on this wicket was an exceptional knock despite the luck here and there

 

[shariqnoor]

Roy is so predictable. Just bowl him on 5th stump line with the ball going away and he will sky it. Did the same in the 1st T20. He has no offside play against spinners.
