England v Pakistan | 2015 World Cup | Warm-up Match | 11th Feb 2015 | Sydney | Pakistan Innings

[uberkoen]

Misbah can win you matches if all the 50 overs are being bowled by off spinners, that too not a target greater than 250

You are blinded by your hate.

 

[Suleiman]

With this pathetic top order we're not going anywhere in this tournament.

You need Maqsood and Haris coming ahead of YK if he is to stay in the team if you don't want an extra wicket down in the first 10 overs.

Will let Jamshed slide, first match in Aus day after arrival, we also don't have better options for 2nd opener at hand.

 

[Ottoman]

Wow what a shot from Misbah

We're going to the Quarter Finals.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

I don't think Pakistan is playing to win. They just want to spend some time in the middle.

True. Now Don't say that this isn't the mentality when they aren't playing the Warm up's

 

[prayas]

Don't understand Hindi. Can't type in English.

What language are you good at then?

Marathi is my mother tongue,I can understand Telugu,Kannada,Gujarati,Sanskrit but in Hindi some time goes over my head as not learn it in school

 

[Pete Rose]

Dare I say it, I think Umar Akmal is going to show some steel in this World Cup.

 

[Dr_Bassim]

ok bet done he will get out before PP or after PP but not in PP overs today

I base my premise on , that before the PP, Misbah will reign him in...

In PP he will be free to have brain fade.

 

[Ottoman]

:

 

[uberkoen]

What a shot!

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Commentartors has started to praise Akmal's talent, time to get out on a farce shot

 

[H2O1]

 

[Ottoman]

gud running

 

[adnan yasin]

full toss. dispatched for

 

[uberkoen]

Umar Akmal will come into his own in this world cup.

He will emerge from this one as Inzi did from the 92 one.

 

[Barragan]

Solid partnership so far and really impressed with Misbah.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Dare I say it, I think Umar Akmal is going to show some steel in this World Cup.

Both Misbah and Akmal are Warm Up Legends

 

[yasir]

Misbah and 20 rotis, Shoiab Malik's story about Misbah's eating habits

 

[Madplayer]

captaan and talunt forming a nice partnership here.

 

[Strike Rate]

I base my premise on , that before the PP, Misbah will reign him in...

Have you seen the SIX he just hit now? nobody can stop him to change his brain lol not even captain misbah at the other end

 

[Watsupdoc]

True. Now Don't say that this isn't the mentality when they aren't playing the Warm up's

And as I said that they are upping the anti. I don't understand these tactics

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

What a shot

 

[Arsal_AK]

Dare I say it, I think Umar Akmal is going to show some steel in this World Cup.

I think it will be Maqsood and Shehzad.

 

[Friend786]

Umar Akmal will come into his own in this world cup.

He will emerge from this one as Inzi did from the 92 one.

Inzi was a complete new comer back then. Umar Akmal has been around for 6 years.

 

[adnan yasin]

If misbah bats like this ... and win us the world cup .... his past sins will be wiped off which he earned by his horrendous batting.

 

[Suleiman]

We're going to the Quarter Finals.

You play to win the tournament, not to get to the quarter finals. Even West Indies can probably get to the quarter finals.

 

[Madplayer]

why is umar attempting that late cuts again and again

 

[Pete Rose]

Morgan Ned's to bring back the pacers. It's all too easy now.

 

[Asif321]

easy win for Pakistan thats bad news winning both warm up matches mean bad performance in actual tournament

 

[adnan yasin]

only umar akmal can play that risky cut shot

 

[Pete Rose]

why is umar attempting that late cuts again and again

Easy signal but fraught with risk.

 

[uberkoen]

Inzi was a complete new comer back then. Umar Akmal has been around for 6 years.

Doesn't change the fact that the tournament made him into the batsman he was. That's what I mean when I talk about Akmal and this world cup. It will transform him.

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Umar Akmal is itching to go hard now..

Time for Power Play?

 

[Madplayer]

smash this molvi for 50 in next 5

 

[uberkoen]

There's only one winner. Whether that will be Pakistan remains to be seen but we're going to the QF's for sure and from there it's anyone's game.

 

[desi_launda]

Pakistan's game to lose,required run rate just around six

 

[yasir]

Pakistan best policy should be to lay five bowlers, target of around 250 is still getable... With four bowlers, target of 330+ is way out of reach, one batsman is not going to make much difference.

 

[Arsal_AK]

easy win for Pakistan thats bad news winning both warm up matches mean bad performance in actual tournament

Lol.

Winning warmups is a bad thing. They won't perform in the tournament now.

Losing warmups is a bad thing. They can't even win the warmups, what hope do they have in the actual tournament.

Make up your mind people.

 

[uberkoen]

smash this molvi for 50 in next 5

I agree. Send him back to the mosque where he came from!

 

[Friend786]

Hopefully ................

 

[Suleiman]

It's good that they sent UA at this point, and not when the RRR is at 7+. Got himself in, now he seriously has no one to blame if he throws it from here.

 

[Madplayer]

Easy signal but fraught with risk.

dafaq?

lay them like bricks? Or did you mean something a bit more rude?

 

[Friend786]

agree , Pakistan can never win a perfect tournament. lol

 

[LegendInzi]

easy win for Pakistan thats bad news winning both warm up matches mean bad performance in actual tournament

Hahaha thats what I'm worried about

 

[Barragan]

How many anchors does one team need?

Just one or perhaps two, but no more than that.

But unfortunately, the management see it differently.

 

[uberkoen]

broady warming up those arms

 

[GreenKnightRises]

You did see the table that was getting splashed last over?

Misbah averaging 60, outside subcontinent. Playing away, highest average ahead of kohli by 15+

Player winning a match and averaging 50,45,..so and so are entirely different. You can average high if you can hang on till the end staying not out even with 40 SR(which is sadly the Misbah's case).

Can Misbah atleast win this 'Warm up' game by staying till the end without his throwing away his wicket after reaching his individual score 50 Odd runs, ???

 

[yasir]

lay them like bricks? Or did you mean something a bit more rude?

I mean to say "play" five bowlers

 

[Madplayer]

ian bishoff says use the short ball. i wonder why haven't the english guys tried it more often today

Misbah always get's the team close to the target. We have finishers in the team in the form of Afridi and Akmal who are supposed to close the game. That's their job. Not Misbah's.

Otherwise why don't we send everyone else home and let only Misbah bat. Because in the end regardless of the efforts he puts in he's going to get the blame even if everyone else fails.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Misbah's struggle started since the offspinners have been taken out of the attack

 

[Electron]

This Haris guy proved to be such a drag. Too slow.

 

[uberkoen]

Misbah's struggle started since the offspinners have been taken out of the attack

Struggle? He's batting on 46 with a strike rate of close to 90.

What game are you watching man?

 

[Red Devil]

Awesome stuff mA!

 

[Commander]

Misbah you beauty!

 

[Madplayer]

lmao misbah showing Moin ali he isnt an indian

 

[Commander]

4 and 6 off Moeen bhai

 

[Arsal_AK]

Misbah playing a brilliant knock.

 

[H2O1]

 

[#GreenRoars]

shot missi

 

[yasir]

20 rotis

 

[desi_launda]

Ali bhai smashed

 

[shah_1]

Misbah you champion

 

[Watsupdoc]

Misbah might actually score a century. Shame that it won't count

 

[Ottoman]

Misbah means business here.

 

[Anchorman]

Brilliant hitting from Misbah.

 

[#GreenRoars]

missi on fire

 

[jib13673]

umer akmal showing his class again... He is never been a selfish player. he just want to keep scoring .

 

[Arsal_AK]

Moeen Bhai being taken to the cleaners.

 

[H2O1]

on fire

 

[Madplayer]

misbah scores at a strike rate of 111 after scoring a 50

 

[axl100mph]

I hv to admit it today. Great batting by misbah but some weird tactics by morgan for allowing him easy singles when he struggles with them

 

[uberkoen]

[MENTION=131789]GreenKnightRises[/MENTION]

Speak up boy. I can't hear you!

Haters gonna hate!

 

[Hamza_]

Top Knock by Misbah.

 

[Asif321]

Mard e haq what a beast

 

[Firebreaker]

This Pakistan team -Younis can defeat any team in this WC

 

[H2O1]

Misbah fittest player in team right now ?

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Misbsh has scored just 4 boundries, all of them coming against off spinners. An off break basher ??

 

[Mamoon]

Moeen bhai is crap. Poor man's Hafeez.
