England v Pakistan | 1st T20I | Nottingham | 16th July, 2021 | Pakistan innings

[Zeshan547]

at this stage they should rather retire out. Hafeez and Maqsood or fakhar can do much better job.

 

[Titan24]

Need one 20 run over to get that RR over 10

 

[Local.Dada]

Azam khan seems to have shed some of those extra pounds..would like to see him out there promoted

Wow he looks like that after losing weight? Surprising that Misbah,Waqar or even Younis were all famous for supreme fitness would allow this.

 

[SangasCoverDrive]

Need Azam in next.

 

[Kaddy]

Try to hit every ball now for God sake.

10 wickets are in hands and they are taking singles.

 

[Zeshan547]

It's not that they can't hit, issue is they don't even try enough.

 

[jattafridi]

Last 6 overs we need 72

 

[Titan24]

Good six. This is turning out to be the over Pak needed at this stage

 

[Rana]

Babar class

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

Finally Babar baring his fangs.

 

[OldWarHorse]

Parkinson getting tonked

 

[TeamPak95]

Babar SR 165, Rizwan 151

 

[SangasCoverDrive]

Why the hell are they rotating the strike? Hit out

 

[Rana]

Too scared to bowl Moeen

 

[Titan24]

Exceptional from Babar. RR very close to 10 now

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

It's not that they can't hit, issue is they don't even try enough.

Yes. They are trying to make a defendable score instead of an unbeatable one.

 

[Rafa]

Run rate almost 10 now. Expect 70 runs minimum in last 6 overs and total 220-215.

 

[Zeshan547]

Parkinson bhai thanks for coming, and vs top 4 team you would have given 60 plus score so thanks your stars.

 

[jeeteshssaxena]

Looks like every other ball is going to the boundary, great batting

 

[Titan24]

Need Azam in next.

Spinners are done, Azam Khan can hit pacers but I think Maqsood is probably better at that

 

[Local.Dada]

Gregory will serve some pies now as well

 

[sharmaji]

Run rate almost 10. Good hitting by Babar. This Parkinson is terrible.

 

[wajid]

So spinners are getting slayed. Wait for Shadab and Imad.

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

That's what you do to a trundler like Gregory.

 

[Line and Length]

Great from Babar. But I’m pretty sure anything under 220 and England’s not even breaking a sweat on this ground.

 

[Titan24]

Looks like every other ball is going to the boundary, great batting

Eng is also going to bat here.

 

[Amjid Javed]

pak might get 200 here now which wont be safe

 

[Zeshan547]

Yes. They are trying to make a defendable score instead of an unbeatable one.

They don't challenge themselves enough and alwys settle for just enough. Which on most days prove to be not enough.

 

[ishtiaq_ctg]

So spinners are getting slayed. Wait for Shadab and Imad.

Very difficult to bowl spin in such a short ground.

 

[Slim]

Babar is a gem, cant believe some losers here want him to give up captaincy. Pathetic.

 

[Shazzam]

The pitch looks very flat.

 

[SangasCoverDrive]

Magala level bowling from Gregory. Babar making full use.

 

[Titan24]

150 runs partnership in a T20 match. Good effort

 

[Ahmed216]

pak might get 200 here now which wont be safe

Nothings safe if you dont pick wickets against England

 

[OldWarHorse]

225 is a must

 

[Slim]

[MENTION=2016]Rana[/MENTION] what you think about Rizwan?

 

[jeeteshssaxena]

Eng is also going to bat here.

I know and they are probably gonna win, tailor made conditions for them but still these two have done a good job

 

[Rohan]

Trying to save wickets and hit out in last 10 overs.

Wait a minute……

 

[Zeshan547]

what an ugly shot to get out, but not the worst outcome, get professor beast mode on or mad maxi.

 

[Sunny_majoka]

Now i will see what people's maqsood does here

 

[badsha001]

[MENTION=2016]Rana[/MENTION] what you think about Rizwan?

the clowns only come out for the circus show and go back in hiding when things don't go according to their opinion.

 

[Titan24]

Another opportunity for Maqsood to create an impact

 

[guna]

Gregory reminds me of Mark Ealham. Dibbly dobbly pie chuckers.

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

Maqsood's T20 average and strike rate are abysmal. Ave of 13 and S/R of 110?

 

[Extra_Cover]

Rizwan gone now. Haters and doubters once again are shut off by his hardwork. Well played Rizwan.

 

[Rafa]

Lol very lucky Sohaib

 

[Rana]

[MENTION=2016]Rana[/MENTION] what you think about Rizwan?

Decent. Par batting on this deck

 

[Titan24]

I know and they are probably gonna win, tailor made conditions for them but still these two have done a good job

Yes, these two have done really well.

Any team would need a good bowling effort to defending anything against Eng.

 

[jattafridi]

Maqsood do something today

 

[Amjid Javed]

Hacksood needs to do some damage here

 

[Zeshan547]

Maqsood bhai aaj you have full license to go Full malang mode. No questions asked.

 

[sharmaji]

Good innings by Rizwan. He started slow but caught up with the SR later.

Eng has such poor bowling attack.

 

[Rana]

Get Babar back on strike

 

[SangasCoverDrive]

Hacksood dropped on first ball.

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

Need around 230 to have a good chance of winning. A couple of monster overs needed.

 

[Rana]

Great shot!

 

[Zeshan547]

Start the count, or maybe he has used his quota.

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

Get in Maqsood.That's what he's in the side for!

 

[Local.Dada]

Good luck England trying to win WT20 with this bowling lol

 

[Rana]

Another 6

is it going to happen??

 

[OldWarHorse]

Ill never get how Tom Curran plays international cricket. Illogical slower balls

 

[guna]

Pak should score 210-220 here. Should be a competitive total.

 

[Local.Dada]

Greta hitting here

 

[Slim]

Maqsood

 

[Rana]

Good luck England trying to win WT20 with this bowling lol

It will be Archer, Wood and Saqib

 

[ex-q-zit]

Wonderful innings by Babar. Pak looks set for a huge score but its difficult to predict a defendable score in the absence of Hassan Ali who has been their best bowler off late. A lot rests on how well Imad/Shadab/faheem bowl their quota.

 

[guna]

Ill never get how Tom Curran plays international cricket. Illogical slower balls

He got smashed in IPL too. Sam Curran is 10 times the player that Tom can ever be.

 

[Adnan_Ilyas]

Come on boys!! This is more like it!!

 

[jeeteshssaxena]

Good Lord, now I need to watch England bat here.

 

[Titan24]

Top hitting from Maqsood. Atlast some impact in the match from him after comeback. 19* off 5 so far

 

[ishtiaq_ctg]

Good luck England trying to win WT20 with this bowling lol

Archer
Wood
Sam Curran
Rashid
wont be a bad attack.

 

[Rana]

Got away with that Curran did

 

[Rana]

Could have hit that anywhere for 6!

 

[Zeshan547]

now Imagine if we were 100/0 in first 10 instead of 80/0, I think of we lose it that's where difference will be. That's the issue with our approach.

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

Unlucky, but that's what happens when you come in and have to smash everything. Done a job anyway.

 

[Rana]

Fantastic cricket though. Very good stuff by Pakistan

 

[Rafa]

Should have hit it higher . Would cost Pakistan a few runs.

 

[Titan24]

Could have hit that anywhere for 6!

Pretty much. No elevation or gap finding

 

[Firebat]

Maqsood did his job perfectly, all that's needed are smashing cameos now.

 

[Local.Dada]

That should have been a 6, this Tom Curran needs to smashed for his illiterate bowling
