[Sports_Psychologist]

why is it 160? shouldn't it be revised?

 

[alone1213]

Doesn't look good Shaheen. Maybe he is holding himself a little bit

 

[alone1213]

Run up is not that smooth. Definitely not 100 percent

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Pakistan's middle overs phase(overs 7-16)

67 runs at 6.70 RPO and 5 wickets lost. And that's after a blistering start.

 

[IAJ]

Good first over from Shaheen

 

[Rana]

Good dots these

160 is a winning score these days

 

[IAJ]

Phil Salt back to mediocrity

 

[Hextro]

Feels good seeing Shaheen bowl after a long time.

 

[Rana]

What’s with these big silver chains

Boys need to be humble

 

[Rana]

England are going the wrong way with Stokes at 3


It should be Malan any day of the week. He is the key

 

[Sports_Psychologist]

are there any speed guns available?

 

[Rana]

Good bowling so far

 

[PakPremi]

England are going the wrong way with Stokes at 3


It should be Malan any day of the week. He is the key

Malan bats slowly for England standards.

 

[MenInG]

Nice one from Naseem

[Rana]

Now England picking it up

 

[MHN1293]

First 6 of the day?

 

[Omer2002]

2 conseq sixes

 

[wrongun]

Hasnain being slaughtered.

Is he WC certainty?

 

[Sunny_majoka]

The runup of shaheen wasn't looking smooth, has anyone noticed?

 

[IMMY69]

Hasnain being slaughtered.

Is he WC certainty?

If Shaheen is remains fit then I doubt he'll get a single game.

 

[Rana]

Just like that 20 from the over

 

[Sherlock]

You know what's funny? I predicted Husnain would go for 20 runs from the over and I'm not even joking

 

[wrongun]

If Shaheen is remains fit then I doubt he'll get a single game.

Probably wise. Maybe play him vs a minnow to rest Shaheen if needed.

Stokes played with Viv like disdain.

 

[Sports_Psychologist]

Oh Cummon Hasnain, that was some serious level rubbish bowling, please look at the number of guys you are competing with.

 

[Azzurri]

Hasnain bowled six short pitched deliveries there. Poor over

 

[Fazzy321]

Now Naseem getting tonked lol

 

[adzzy786]

I don’t know have the commentators mentioned stokes batting at 3?

 

[IAJ]

England are going the wrong way with Stokes at 3


It should be Malan any day of the week. He is the key

Acha ji, aur kuch?

 

[NeVerMind]

Shows how comfortable England are playing the short ball...

 

[Rana]

Acha ji, aur kuch?

Dekh lain ghe…it’s a long World Cup

And not every team is buffet for England bowlers

 

[TheSultan]

What I don’t understand - if Riz was being rested, why is he still keeping. Surely keeping takes it out of you more than batting. I am 100% convinced these guys just play for their batting stats

 

[TheSultan]

Wasim is very good when he sticks to what he knows - Yorkers

 

[Rana]

Man Hasnain is such an Inzimam era fielder!

 

[Rana]

Lol the star keeper has to go

Asif Ali keeping now

 

[hasanali]

What I don’t understand - if Riz was being rested, why is he still keeping. Surely keeping takes it out of you more than batting. I am 100% convinced these guys just play for their batting stats

I mean it's pretty obvious. Team management wants others to get some time in the middle.

 

[ask_analyse_act]

Wasim is very good when he sticks to what he knows - Yorkers

he is a good bowler with the new ball, swings both ways,,


Pakistan should go in with 4 pacers and 2 spinners, instead of having Asif Ali and Chacha ifthi

 

[Rana]

51-3

Can turn into 70-4

And that’s pretty much danger zone

 

[PakPremi]

What I don’t understand - if Riz was being rested, why is he still keeping. Surely keeping takes it out of you more than batting. I am 100% convinced these guys just play for their batting stats

How is he playing for batting stats by not batting but keeping lol. In any case only kept for 6 overs I suppose to get a bit of practise.

 

[Rana]

So Asif Ali will be the keeper if Rizwan is injured

 

[Ashmal]

What I don’t understand - if Riz was being rested, why is he still keeping. Surely keeping takes it out of you more than batting. I am 100% convinced these guys just play for their batting stats

Spoke too soon

 

[Hextro]

What I don’t understand - if Riz was being rested, why is he still keeping. Surely keeping takes it out of you more than batting. I am 100% convinced these guys just play for their batting stats

Can we call this 'selfish keeping'?

 

[PakPremi]

Lol the star keeper has to go

Asif Ali keeping now

3 wk keepers were marked for the match. Khushdil also.

 

[ask_analyse_act]

garbage hasnain is back again

 

[PakPremi]

Can we call this 'selfish keeping'?

Well yes when someone told him midmatch that your catches and stumpings do not count toward your career stats he decided to pull an injury. What a dramabaz .

 

[Rana]

Now Shadab isn’t letting Nawaz bowl

What’s wrong with this guy???

 

[Fazzy321]

Has main line and length all over the place. He needs to get going knowing that he has a competition.

 

[Azzurri]

Hasnain is bowling too short here. he needs to pitch it up

 

[Rana]

Asif looking fairly comfortable so far

 

[Rana]

On the roof of the Gabba

 

[Fazzy321]

Easy for England

 

[alone1213]

Pakistan always fail in Australia this won't be any different.

 

[alone1213]

Pakistani batsmen are crap as always and bowling never does well here. First round exit for sure.

 

[Fazzy321]

This is comedy

 

[Usman Chadda]

Hasnain should definitely not play in Australia, his lengths are not good enough.

 

[SamNJ]

Harry Brook Pakistan kay pichay hi pad gaya h

 

[Kianig89]

Eng running away Pakistan out of LalaLand after tonking NZ

 

[Kianig89]

Naseem Shah also ordinary today

 

[Sherlock]

Pakistan is hands-down one of the worst fielding sides around. They simply can't catch, nor is their throwing arm any good.

 

[Fazzy321]

Livingstone laughing his way to win

 

[Kianig89]

Skipper Shadab also smacked black & blue

 

[asadee]

Not liking Shadabs attitude throughout this match. Taking it too easy out there

 

[Sherlock]

Hasnain can't field, can't bat and is an awful bowler even with that pace. Average at best, massively overrated at worst.

 

[Kianig89]

Eng are leagues ahead than Pakistan

 

[PakEngFan]

Husnain should not be picked for his fielding alone. Asif Ali continues to what he does best which is providing comic relief.

 

[greatest]

Pakistan always fail in Australia this won't be any different.

But our Awaam will always say....it's same like 1992, no one gave us a chance, we started badly then we played like cornered tigers and ended up winning the Cup. In 1992 we had Akram now we have Shaheen etc etc.

 

[PakPremi]

Hasnain always has catches missed of his bowling or fall8ng in no mans land. He created 3 such chances. He needs to gethis length right or he will get mascarred in the tournament, if Shaheen is fit he will not be selected.

 

[Kroll]

Hahahaha, this is a mauling.

 

[Mamoon]

Always a joy to see show-off Shadab getting clobbered. )

A nothing cricketer.

 

[PakPremi]

Safe Shadab takes one for Pakistan.

 

[Kianig89]

Pakistan can take solace that Rauf has not bowled

 

[Kianig89]

Strange Nawaz has not bowled

 

[Kianig89]

WasimJr has been a shining star so far

 

[PakPremi]

Strange Nawaz has not bowled

Nor has Haris. I think that was the ploy from start.

 

[Mean&Green]

If you guys are seriously judging these teams performances based off of warm up matches y’all seriously don’t know jack about international cricket.

 

[Kianig89]

Wasim and Shaheen first names on team sheet with Rauf

 

[Kianig89]

Riz
Babar
Shan
Haider
Nawaz
Iftikhar
Shadab
WasimJr
Asif
Rauf
Shaheen

 

[Xoib]

Lol at so much jazba junoon here for a warm up game

 

[Kianig89]

Nawaz beaten black & blue

 

[PakPremi]

Naseem bowled ok too. With this fielding and middle order Pakistan looking for early exit.
