England v Pakistan | 3rd ODI | Nottingham | August 30th, 2016 | England innings

[ExplicitAI]

Azhar you're a much better bowler than that

 

[shah_1]

400 possible hai

 

[JaDed]

Not many people are gonna like what I'm gonna say but the only way to improve is to select good players from List A and arrange matches against minnows like Zim, Bang, Afg and also against the lower tier teams we're usually good against like WI and SL to build their confidence up. Make our players bag up wickets and some centuries then play them against the big guns.

Bangladesh is not a minnow as such in LOI anymore.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Hahaha 20 from the over.

 

[PennOne]

Miss my bowling now ? :Amir:

 

[Naim]

first 400 coming up against pakistan

 

[shah_1]

Azhar is a clown

 

[ExplicitAI]

not impressed at all

 

[wicketpace]

Baskarde Azhar Baskarde Galliyan aa rahee hen moooooo mein

 

[JaDed]

20 runs from "23rd over"

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Azhar Ali needs to fire with the bat today and score a 70 ball 120

 

[ExplicitAI]

Another

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Well done Kaptaan. Thank you very much.Pakistan cricket is proud of you

 

[wicketpace]

The captain has set up a very poor field...really not accordingly

 

[ask_analyse_act]

what a dejected look that from azhar....

 

[Shafi]

450 on board!!!!! What a rubbish captain is he with so high ego!!!

 

[nish_mate]

Even Dhoni bowls better than that.....

 

[Rayyman]

Apparently Azhar thinks he is better than Malik.

 

[ExplicitAI]

Bangladesh is not a minnow as such in LOI anymore.

One whitewash hasn't changed things, we thumped them in the T20 WC.

 

[Commander]

Kick these lousy cricketers out of the team.

This over sums it up, Azhar out, Hafeez out, Wahab out, Yasir out, Malik out....

 

[Shafi]

SK should be blame to keep Azhar as a captain along with Misbah and Waqar

 

[JaDed]

Very less posts in the thread looks like people are really losing interest from Pak LOI matches,team NEEDS to perform.

 

[Sadevdesai]

we are in for a ride today !!!!!!

 

[Ankit007]

Azhar bowling was a good move but went wrong. He could have picked a wicket with batsman going after him

 

[ExplicitAI]

Hasan Ali's speed has gone slower

 

[Gosha]

Just goes to show how much of a difference a captain can make. Azhar is pathetic and shouldn't be anywhere near the ODI side, his captaincy has affected the whole teams morale.

 

[aukhan]

Azhar Ali - Azor Ahai of ODI cricket )

 

[JaDed]

One whitewash hasn't changed things, we thumped them in the T20 WC.

TBH they did well in Asia cup as well,they have improved and if Fizz is playing on flat pitches i would give them higher chance to win.

 

[Sandeep]

Can Pakistan chase 380?

 

[shah_1]

Wahab-Mir Hamza
Yasir -Muhammad Asghar
Hafeez-Saud Shakeel
Malik-Rizwan
Azhar Ali-Fakhar Zamaan

 

[Dios]

79.3
81.5
81.9
70.8
82.4
82.1

Hasan Ali's pace in the last over.

 

[ask_analyse_act]

azhar one more over please..

 

[ask_analyse_act]

Can Pakistan chase 380?

not even 280 bro... asking a 100 more is too much

 

[ExplicitAI]

A brilliant innings from Hales on a belter

 

[Slog]

Hasan Ali's speed has gone slower

He starts at 85-86 but goes down to 80-82 in his second spell

Looks malnourished really

 

[omorst7]

One whitewash hasn't changed things, we thumped them in the T20 WC.

Pak supporters should realise Test, ODI, T20 is different format!!!
In ODI's before telling others minnow!!! They should at least say MINNOW LIKE US!!!

 

[Zeshan547]

And then they have confidence to say "we don't deserve to be number nine team" with straight face, how shameless you can be. Disgusting!

 

[Sandeep]

By the welcome to the modern day cricket.. the one we all hate..

Pakistan needs an upgrade badly...

 

[Rayyman]

Hasan Ali's speed has gone slower

Trying not to bowl a no ball.

 

[ask_analyse_act]

Azhar bowling was a good move but went wrong. He could have picked a wicket with batsman going after him

but u wont set that field for a part timer

 

[ExplicitAI]

TBH they did well in Asia cup as well,they have improved and if Fizz is playing on flat pitches i would give them higher chance to win.

I'm not taking anything away from them. We're not that wack as a team, I'm saying we can literally thump Ireland, Afg, Kenya etc, but we can compete well with BD, WI and SL. Facing anyone above them is a myth.

 

[ExplicitAI]

He starts at 85-86 but goes down to 80-82 in his second spell

Looks malnourished really

I don't hate him tbh, looks a good prospect. Needs more time.

 

[Strike Rate]

Look at the body language of our players it looks like they have already given up if there was any hope left.

 

[Dios]

One whitewash hasn't changed things, we thumped them in the T20 WC.

Five losses in the last six matches don't mean anything but one win for Pakistan means they are better

 

[PennOne]

The only bowler giving effort in every spell is amir . Every bowler going over 7 he is going at under 5 and his speed never falls in his second spell

 

[cricketfanfromaz]

Very less posts in the thread looks like people are really losing interest from Pak LOI matches,team NEEDS to perform.

Nobody cares about odi.

 

[ExplicitAI]

Five losses in the last six matches don't mean anything but one win for Pakistan means they are better

It's just a phase man, their last victory against us before the whitewash was in 1999. It was bound to happen anyway.

 

[badsha001]

pathetic fielding really. You know the batsman is gonna play towards you and yet no1 seems to give a sh it about it...

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Well played Alex Hales!Take a bow lad.

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Well played Hales, that was a terrific knock

 

[Executioner]

Make our players bag up wickets and some centuries then play them against the big guns.

In ODIs we are much better overall and not just in Bangladesh. I would back ourselves in UAE as well. On neutral venues as well, we have the upper hand given that our pace attack is currently better.

Fizz, Taskin(he will test his action again and should get unbanned), Al Amin, Rubel and Mash isn't half bad.

 

[ExplicitAI]

Brilliant hundred Alex Hales, well done

 

[JaDed]

Fair enough.

 

[JaDed]

Nobody cares about odi.

Have been long enough on this forum to know how untrue that is.

 

[nish_mate]

Well played Alex Hales!Take a bow lad.

More like do a push up lad.... be funy if he did that

 

[Executioner]

One whitewash hasn't changed things, we thumped them in the T20 WC.

And Afghanistan beat West Indies as well, so Afghanistan better than West Indies perhaps?

 

[wicketpace]

not even 280 bro... asking a 100 more is too much

but if 380 is the target then we actually end up with 280.

 

[ExplicitAI]

Form wise you're better but I don't think you lot are good enough to challenge top teams abroad, whereas BD are pretty decent at home now in ODI's.

 

[Rayyman]

Look at the body language of our players it looks like they have already given up if there was any hope left.

There is no hope.

 

[Shafi]

With time England is keep getting better and we are getting worse!!!Whitewash is imminent.

 

[ExplicitAI]

And Afghanistan beat West Indies as well, so Afghanistan better than West Indies perhaps?

Does that make Ireland better than us when they beat us in 2007? )

 

[Sherlock]

Body language of the players is truly shocking

Captain coming on and bowling then getting hit for 20 runs sums up his whole pathetic tenure thus far.

 

[Rayyman]

Can we please stop talking about Bangladesh? And ban fans keep ur cool.

 

[ExplicitAI]

Hales at this stage should just do the hail mary and literally smack anything that comes his way.

 

[JattMaula]

Hales 100 in 25 overs. Can he do a Sharma?

 

[Rayyman]

Hales might make a double.

 

[ExplicitAI]

I really want to hear what Shoaib Akhtar says in his analysis about our ODI team, I'm in for a big laugh

 

[JaDed]

Hales averages only 38? He is punching above his stats today.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

These guys are fielding like a club side!

 

[Ankit007]

Still fielding poorly. Bring Rizwan in as substitute fielder...

 

[JaDed]

Hales to get out and Joe root to score higher than him!

 

[Executioner]

Form wise you're better but I don't think you lot are good enough to challenge top teams abroad, whereas BD are pretty decent at home now in ODI's.

You are right about struggling to win in SA, Aus, NZ, Eng

However, it is not really our fault that we haven't played too often in these countries. Last time we were hosted by one of the above teams was way way back in 2010 vs England and New Zealand. All that considering that we have been on an upward spiral since then

 

[fazleefridi]

First team 400 and individual's 200 against Pakistan coming up

 

[ExplicitAI]

My blood will boil if I see our batsmen play out many dot balls, blocking and treating this flat pitch as if it was a green mamba.

 

[JaDed]

Amir into the attack

 

[Ind_Yeah]

200 on the cards for Hales? He's looking dangerous...

 

[Ankit007]

Amir is the last hope for wickets now......

To be honest it's all about consistency, if you lot can keep winning and move up the rankings then BD will be a top team.

 

[Executioner]

Does that make Ireland better than us when they beat us in 2007? )

ofcourse not, that is my point that one match shouldn't mean anything. I know we lost that encounter in WT20 and by a good margin but that doesn't necessarily indicate that Pakistan are much better than us in T20s.

 

[JaDed]

England is not that capable to score 400 runs they have already slowed down.
