England vs Pakistan | 2nd ODI | Southampton | May 11, 2019 | England Innings

[Titan24]

I agree, he should have been given more chances. Unlike the other left arm orthodox bowlers, he actually spins the ball.

Wasnt even given one match in this PSL just like Usama Mir. Everybody worries about batting but our spin department has been poor for sometime now as well

 

[castortroy]

Is hafeez allowed to bowl?

 

[Mueez]

Reverse for Hasan?

 

[big_gamer007]

Our team has looked demotivated and dejected since the Asia Cup humiliation. Much like our fans, our players’ heads were in the clouds and they thought they were invincible superstars after the Champions and Trophy and the minnow bashing that followed.

The likes of Sarfraz came up with stupid statements of how India is afraid of us and the likes of Hasan were talking about taking 10 wickets against India etc., but the reality check in Asia Cup brought them back to earth and showed them their place.

Since then, the morale has been low and it appears that Mickey has given up as well.

Good post, you are absolutely right.

 

[Titan24]

Any news about Hafeez, Shadab?

Shadab is recovering well

[asadee]

What is the update on Shadab

 

[AdamM97]

Is there no chance of Shadab playing the last 1-2 ODI’s against England?

 

[Ronaldo7]

People really need to stop exaggerating. Don't know why all of you are surprised. England are unbeatable at home.

 

[Titan24]

Is hafeez allowed to bowl?

Yes

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Shadab is recovering well

Good stuff. Seems like he will be there for the WC warm ups.

 

[Mueez]

Whining was already started after the first ball bowled.

 

[mesmerizer85]

Are the PAK players fasting?

 

[topspin]

Pakistan's spin stocks have fallen so much since ICC's clampdown of chuckers. We don't produce wicket taking right arm offies any more because all the ones coming through the system have suspect actions. This is where the problem lies.

Who would have thought the land of Qadir, Mushtaq Ahmed, Saqlain et al would go on to have one of the worst spin attacks in the world today.

 

[Mueez]

Haris better pick a wicket.

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

Yasir Shah in ODIs

 

[imshally81]

RR is around 6.00

 

[Stewie]

Pakistan think tank need to seriously consider what they expect out of this series.. treat this as prep.. try aggressive strategies to see how players respond. Don’t be formulaic and safe because you do that in the World Cup games.. right now you can see how players respond if you just let them at the jugular of the opposition. Our guys transform into a different beast when given the freedom to play with the natural flair.

This is pathetic! We are getting stream rolled!

 

[Ronaldo7]

Are the PAK players fasting?

This isn't a t20 game.

 

[Titan24]

Haris is more accurate than Yasir and batsman at least needs to create a shot

 

[imshally81]

Yorker...

 

[AdamM97]

This isn't a t20 game.

Part time bowler Haris Sohail much better than Yasir Shah. Would’ve been better to play with 4 bowlers and one extra batsman.

 

[Markhor]

Pakistan's bowling figures against the top 5 sides in ODIs since the Champions Trophy final. Dire stuff.

 

[imshally81]

Raining...

Also we havent developed the likes of Zafar Gohar, Asghar, Usama, Raza Hassan who all had better List A records then Yasir. Atleast one of them should have been developed alongside Shadab

 

[ARK Rafay]

England is the worst place to play Cricket. I hope the WC gets ruined by rain

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

if it turns into a 35 over game, Pakistan will be chasing 8 an over minimum.

 

[shariqnoor]

People still think that since the world cup is in England, guys like Afridi, Hasan, Amir will run through sides because of seam and swing. This world cup will be played on pancakes. Spin would win the world cup and we have two spinners in our team who don't spin the ball 5 degrees even.

 

[Markhor]

Clutching at straws but hopefully the rain break will break up the batsmen's rhythm.

 

[786warrior]

What are we going to hear?? Please can we have a poll??

- It's a young team

- We are testing bench

- There are many positives as well as negatives

- If we had scored more runs and taken more wickets we would have won

- We are resting our formidable world XI players (Hafeez, Malik etc)

- We are still acclimatising??

- The weather and the food is not hot enough??

- The nightclubs are cheap and they do 2 for 1

They have been collectively poor. That's all there is to it tbh.

All of these names are better than Yasir Shah, despite their lack of chances. Pakistan's think tank has no foresight when it comes to succession planning, but that won't happen anytime soon until they abolish the seniority culture.

 

[HGhazanfar]

We are developing our team for 2023, and when that time comes a new excuse, these people are hopeless. Id rather they loose but entertain us.

Fakhar
Kamran /Sharjeel when he returns
Babar Azam
Hafeez C
Umar Akmal
Asif Ali
Khusdil / Ifrikhar Ahmed
Shadab
Hassan Ali
Wahab
Haris Rauf

Atleast we can see genuine pace and a few sixes

”We are testing bench” and ”the pitch was not in our favour”.

 

[786warrior]

Bro they are simply not good enough - this is professional athletes vs have a goers and it's been evident for a long time

 

[786warrior]

”We are testing bench” and ”the pitch was not in our favour”.

thanks bro

WE NEED A POLL PLEASE

 

[cricketkajankaar]

YeS , YOu HEARD RIghT. and some idiotS WANT HIm to become our coach again

 

[AdamM97]

The commentators seem shocked at the fact that Yasir got to play. This management is a joke. Why aren’t good players in the team speaking up?

 

[Titan24]

Would love to hear how Mickey and Inzi defend yasir, they had a lot of concerns about Haris Rauf on the other hand

 

[Stewie]

The rain won’t do us any good.. of overs reduced the adjusted total for us will be much higher because England is in a commanding position.

 

[lahoriyah1234]

Bro they are simply not good enough - this is professional athletes vs have a goers and it's been evident for a long time

Pakistani fans and their knee jerk reactions are not surprising at all. If same team wins tonight u guys will start saying positively. Relax and dont judge *. Let the game finish then u can criticise.

 

[ask_analyse_act]

mohamad asghar is the best offie, he is also young. no idea why he has never been selected

Mickey wants him to bat when he is a bowler. MA is obsessed with bits and pieces and that is why he plays so many bits and pieces in one team.

 

[Afhan Ali]

Zafar Gohar or M Irfan junior are far better than Yasir in limited overs

 

[786warrior]

The commentators seem shocked at the fact that Yasir got to play. This management is a joke. Why aren’t good players in the team speaking up?

Because of the culture they have created and the set up - those who speak up will be "silenced"

 

[Titan24]

The commentators seem shocked at the fact that Yasir got to play. This management is a joke. Why aren’t good players in the team speaking up?

I will blame Sarfaraz the most considering he is the captain for 2, 3 years now and he knows the players and have played against and with them.

Surely him, malik and hafeez would know that Yasir is a poor white ball bowler. Them not speaking up or recommending a better option is just shocking. None of them seem to be involved

 

[786warrior]

Pakistani fans and their knee jerk reactions are not surprising at all. If same team wins tonight u guys will start saying positively. Relax and dont judge ��*. Let the game finish then u can criticise.

Bro I totally respect what you say - we're having a bit of a fun and at the same time feeling hurt by what we have been subjected to for far too long

We want Pak to win but forgive us for reacting this way as we've seen it all too often before

Peace bro

 

[Ronaldo7]

are those two words "F It"?

 

[Titan24]

Winning and loosing is part of game but not doing the basics right and not controlling the controllable factors is not on. Selection of Yasir and strategy of our pacers will remain questionable irrespective of the result.

It's unlikely to be due to the nightclubs.... Umar Akmal isn't playing

I'm going with it's awfully cold out there and we're still acclimatising to the shock of having to play cricket against attacking batsmen!

 

[Ronaldo7]

This scorecard currently is so similar to the one after 29 overs when eng made 444.

 

[Mueez]

https://twitter.com/usmanshinwari6/status/1126966020265185280?s=21

The guy who deserved to play here is training at home.

Thanks bro - How dare those nasty batsmen attack you!!! - they should go running to their mummies and let the real men play

 

[786warrior]

This scorecard currently is so similar to the one after 29 overs when eng made 444.

Sweeeeet

 

[MenInG]

Play starting.

 

[786warrior]

Play starting.

OK boys, settle down and focus

 

[ARK Rafay]

This scorecard currently is so similar to the one after 29 overs when eng made 444.

I wonder if England will be able to break 444 mark against Pakistan

 

[hisham_ashraf]

This scorecard currently is so similar to the one after 29 overs when eng made 444.

The key now is to not take Joe Root's wicket

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Pakistani players look so uninterested in this game.

 

[HGhazanfar]

Say what u want Shinwari is a wicket taker, hes won us 4-5 games single handedly

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

If Plunkett is batting at XI....thats some batting XI that eng have....
Why does sarf get Ashraf to open the bowling when u have ali who is surely better with the new ball...

 

[Deewana Mastana]

They're fielding is

 

[786warrior]

Pakistani players look so uninterested in this game.

Don't worry - they are saving all their interest for the World Cup matches!!!

 

[Mueez]

Badly missing Shadab at point.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Nasser spot on with Pakistans problem.

Not taking wickets with the new ball and then its catch up for the rest of the match.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Don't worry - they are saving all their interest for the World Cup matches!!!

No they say its because they're fasting they'd lose happily.

 

[Plumb]

Is this a practice game guyzzzz

 

[ARK Rafay]

Time for Imad to complete his overs

 

[Titan24]

Nasser spot on with Pakistans problem.

Not taking wickets with the new ball and then its catch up for the rest of the match.

Had same problem in most of the CT 17 as well but Hasan was able to hide it with amazing form.

 

[ARK Rafay]

Roy getting out below 90 SR. Is a big bonus for Pakistan

 

[Titan24]

Good Hasan, kept changing his length

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Roy gone and he's absolutely fuming about it throws away an 8th century right there.

 

[Plumb]

Lucky breakthrough

 

[786warrior]

Is this a practice game guyzzzz

Yes for England before they play serious completion

 

[Mueez]

 

[Mamoon]

Deserved a hundred. A very good innings after hardly playing recently.

 

[Markhor]

Roy has given away a hundred.

 

[ARK Rafay]

C'mos Hasan couple more wickets

 

[Mueez]

Once again Hasan strikes - the one who doesn’t get the new ball.

 

[Titan24]

Sarfraz should target to get few quick wickets now to get back in the game

 

[topspin]

Sarfraz should target to get few quick wickets now to get back in the game

Yep, bring the field up with at least a slip in now.

 

[ARK Rafay]

Morgan will edge one. Shabba Hassan
