England beat Pakistan by 169 runs in the 3rd ODI

[QalandarFan]

Dropped! My heart was in my mouth and I was about to burst into tears if he took that! Phew!

 

[BleedGreen]

luckyy

 

[Hasan123]

Sharjeel bhai please learn some shots through the offside. A big knock here from sharjeel will earn him another series or 2.

 

[MMHS]

OK, got away with that this time - next time he should be slapped every time for hitting 3 consecutive boundaries.

 

[ExplicitAI]

dropped

 

[Syed1]

hehehe

 

[Pakistani Pace]

Yessss another 4

 

[imshally81]

What a Shot

 

[QalandarFan]

I can't express my joy right now another four!

 

[uberkoen]

Sharjeel bhai please learn some shots through the offside. A big knock here from sharjeel will earn him another series or 2.

Like that one?

 

[Hasan123]

Btw that was a pathetic drop. If that was a Pakistan player commentators would have ripped us apart

 

[Gosha]

Sharjeel has so much potential, please don't give it away now.

 

[Boi]

There's your shot thru offside

 

[badsha001]

2

 

[Jabo]

Excellent

Hopefully he can go on

 

[Slog]

That celebration sorta sums up the mentality of the team as a whole

Happy with 50s

Morgan, Buttlet didn't care

 

[QalandarFan]

Poor PPers who are missing out on this Sharjeel onslaught 50 with

 

[imshally81]

Easy Sharjeel easy

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Sehwag ki yaad dila di

 

[Hasan123]

Like that one?

Yes yes that is perfect if he learns about playing through the offside we have a brilliant opener here trust me.

 

[jattafridi]

Sharjeel 50*

amazing batting

 

[coy0607]

he's literally toying with them

 

[MMHS]

Get a single, get off strike - that made Virender Sehwag; lots of players can bang couple.

 

[BabarAkmal_Fan]

What an onside shot

 

[ExplicitAI]

50 up for Sharjeel

 

[uberkoen]

Slower one.

 

[Syed1]

If Sharjeel plays 20 more overs we will win this with overs to spare.


A HUGE if though

 

[QalandarFan]

Mickey finally smiling!

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Shehzad fans must be crying

 

[imshally81]

 

[uberkoen]

oh that one was right in the spot

 

[Dios]

Sharjeel needs to get a big one here but he needs some support too. Great to watch.

 

[Pakistani Pace]

Sixerrrrr

 

[Big Mac]

"This batsman keeps pulling everything. Where should I bowl?"

"Just short of a length on middle, middle and leg should do the trick"

"Perfect!"

 

[Slog]

I've always noticed that for his size and bulk Sharjeels shots don't have a lot of
Power and barely clear the boundary

Even in the NZ innings they were barely clearing the ropes

I'm not complaining

 

[imshally81]

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

Gone

But I'm not even that disappointed

Atleast he went for it

shows how poor he is that even when he goes for it he cant go above a run a ball

 

[uberkoen]

If Sharjeel plays 20 more overs we will win this with overs to spare.


A HUGE if though

lol. You're a funny guy.

 

[QalandarFan]

I have tears of joy in my eyes
Sharjeel you rock I told you guys daddy hundred coming up!

 

[m.shah]

Throwed it away

 

[ExplicitAI]

 

[QalandarFan]

Oh my god Sharjeel Gone!!!

 

[hk031992]

six

 

[Slog]

I've always noticed that for his size and bulk Sharjeels shots don't have a lot of
Power and barely clear the boundary

Even in the NZ innings they were barely clearing the ropes

I'm not complaining

WOW!!

JUst as I posted that

with his size and style he should be departing sixes into the stands when he hits the sweet spot

 

[BleedGreen]

fgone

 

[Jabo]

Damn

he gone

And woakes fired up

Sarfraz in next
Then Malik (lol)

Then the bowlers

don't think we'll make 250+ now

as 2 batsman did nothing

 

[badsha001]

no brain really.

 

[MMHS]

Yes that is true but it's an unfair comparison. South Africa number 3 in odis is Faf, you wouldn't compare him with Root even though the margin between the 2 is big.

One of the reason of SAF's decline is not playing AB at 3. Still, FaF vs Azhar ....

 

[Pakistani Pace]

Game Over.

 

[BabarAkmal_Fan]

Nooooooo

 

[ExplicitAI]

for goodness sake

 

[Hasan123]

Ahhh game over good effort sharjeel develop your offside game slightly and you will be a brilliant player.

 

[QalandarFan]

Now match is gone!!! Should've batted till 30th over!!

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Sharjeel gone game gone

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

And the legside hack goes. That's the problem with players who play on one side of the wicket only. England's plan worked.

But good innings Sharjeel. Credit to him for a good start. Hopefully he only gets better.

 

[Syed1]

Ok game done. Logging off again now.

Glad I didn't miss the Sharjeel blitz

 

[ScotRaz]

Idiot!!!!

If only we had 3-4 more idiots like this we might even get close to Englands total.

 

[BabarAkmal_Fan]

Sharjeel shoulda taken some singles

 

[m.shah]

Still sharjeel provided some fun

 

[QalandarFan]

It was great fun to watch that innings from Sharjeel!! 58 in no time!!

 

[Dios]

Like I said in the first innings. England are not Ireland. They would figure out a way to get Sharjeel out before he could do some real damage. It was good to watch though.

 

[coy0607]

he fell for the trap

 

[MMHS]

So, this is the difference with Virender Sehwag - ENG put 9 men on inner line, it's elementary that, hit couple & get off strike for next over.

PAK batting in ODI is a century behind in terms of strategy.

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

I've always noticed that for his size and bulk Sharjeels shots don't have a lot of
Power and barely clear the boundary

Even in the NZ innings they were barely clearing the ropes

I'm not complaining

mainly because he hardly middles it, its all brute force, and even when he does middle it the way he bats it goes flat , thats why he got out

 

[QalandarFan]

This is better than 45/1 in 10 overs when setting a target!

 

[supersix]

lol only two more batsmen to come.

 

[hk031992]

ah well, he gave it a go. Hope Babar and Sarfraz can salvage something from here. Get us close to 250 (even that is looking tough at the moment)

 

[badsha001]

RR is 9/over and you've already got 14 in the over, why go for another shot?

 

[street cricketer]

Sharjeel is the best batsman in Pak team.

 

[CricketAnalyst]

OK, got away with that this time - next time he should be slapped every time for hitting 3 consecutive boundaries.

This is the mentality why Asian sides are lagging in ODIs and T20s.

 

[Sherlock]

Predicted the batsmen giving their wickets away. Oh how Pakistan are so predictable.

 

[Hasan123]

One of the reason of SAF's decline is not playing AB at 3. Still, FaF vs Azhar ....

Yes England have the brains to play there best player at 3 a shame south Africa don't.


Yes faf is better in LO whilst azhar is better than faf in tests

 

[Pakistani Pace]

What did Woakes say to sharjeel?

 

[QalandarFan]

If we had 1 more power hitter in our side it would be game on!

 

[m.shah]

Commie wants shafiq

 

[Boi]

Wasim is an infuriating commentator. Bringing up the same old names.

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

Wasim is having one of his moments,


Asad shafiq at 5 or 6 is like playing with 10 players

 

[Sherlock]

All 3 batsmen have given their wickets away. Awful awful mindset.

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

So, this is the difference with Virender Sehwag - ENG put 9 men on inner line, it's elementary that, hit couple & get off strike for next over.

PAK batting in ODI is a century behind in terms of strategy.

This.

ENG knew Sharjeel only plays one shot or mostly on the legside so it was easy for them to dismiss him and they did that in 10 overs on a very dead track.

 

[Jabo]

You are clueless Wasim for suggesting Shafiq in the ODI format
and then suggesting him to be at 5
