England vs Pakistan | 2nd T20I | Manchester | Aug 30, 2020 | Pakistan innings

[Maliq_Mudasir]

Shame on Babar and Misbah for showing confidence in Hafeez and Malik.

 

[Slim]

Malik out there playing a test match - no intent.

 

[zacattakk]

Ifthakar 29 years of age WTH

29 +/- 10 years

 

[coy0607]

WOW - what a shot by Hafeez to end the over. Faked out everyone

legend

 

[Markhor]

Ifthakar 29 years of age WTH

Young at heart though

 

[watson367]

I fancy my chances against these 2 as well.

 

[QalandarFan]

Do these guys not understand that this is a T20, and not an ODI???

 

[Local.Dada]

Hafeez and Malik debuted before MSD and we were baying for Dhoni’s retirement and people are also demanding guys like Rohit and Dhawan to retire lol

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

Hafeez is better than Malik - In a battle of bottom feeders

 

[Mesozoic]

Hafeez deserves a place in this side.

 

[Gullycricket]

I can't believe how can Pak management be so dumb.

 

[shah_1]

Still struggling despite four

 

[Slim]

Like i said, i would pick Hafeez anyday over Malik.

 

[Titan24]

Great anchoring going on

 

[Belawal2014]

Shoaib 'dab to 3rd man' Malik.

 

[coy0607]

Malik and Hafeez just need to milk the spinners and medium pacers for singles here. No pressure in the middle overs, 4-5 RPO is good

 

[QalandarFan]

Look at how happy Hafeez Sobers looked after hitting that 4.

 

[Mueez]

Hafeez > Malik.

 

[shah_1]

Malik is finished

 

[Mir jibran]

Shoaib malik rotating the strike as if 30 overs are left
Misbah is the worst tactician

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

Hafeez > Malik.

...in the battle of bottom feeders

 

[Gullycricket]

Hafeez and Malik debuted before MSD and we were baying for Dhoni’s retirement and people are also demanding guys like Rohit and Dhawan to retire lol

Raina also retired but we are stuck with Dinosaurs

 

[Mueez]

Am I watching a T20 or an ODI

 

[QalandarFan]

Like i said, i would pick Hafeez anyday over Malik.

Yep, Malik is only good for playing spin. Can’t do anything against the pacers.

 

[shah_1]

Pathetic bowler

 

[Titan24]

Khushdil Shah and Haider, probably the best hitters in the squad alongside Fakhar and Iftikhar are sitting out watching this anchoring

 

[Matty]

Hafeez > Malik.

Disagree with that

 

[TeymurBlake]

Saqib Mahmood is getting a massive lesson here. DON'T. MESS. WITH. HAFEEZ.

 

[Gullycricket]

Malik is so bad.

 

[Local.Dada]

29 +/- 10 years

Minus??? )

 

[Greenstorm]

They need a spinner to come on. Malik and Hafeez will enjoy that

They are trash against spin as well since last 5 years.

 

[oatmeal]

Jimmy Anderson is not a good commentator. Needs to practise more

 

[Ahmed216]

Needed to have Deigo Costa of Cricket - Ifthikar Ahmed instead of Malik.

Hahaha well spotted

 

[Madplayer]

Iftikhar is 29 years old. Thats the most interesting part of this match.

 

[Slim]

Yep, Malik is only good for playing spin. Can’t do anything against the pacers.

I didnt want to say it but Hafeez gets a lot of undue criticism as well. The guy was instrumental in our CT win. His batting in the final was just insane. He also has played various match winning innings. Guy has his deficiences tho.

 

[Zeshan547]

Sharamful batting from xperienced guys

That's an understatement.

 

[Mueez]

Disagree with that

“ Hafeez’s batting average in T20Is in last two years is 81.75 and bowling economy is b under 6.00. Most of those games vs Aus and NZ.

Malik’s average in two years is 25.00 (due to a fifty vs BD). How come that is better than Hafeez?”

Copied from Mazher Arshad!

 

[watson367]

Hafeez will surprise you

 

[coy0607]

Hafeez and Malik debuted before MSD and we were baying for Dhoni’s retirement and people are also demanding guys like Rohit and Dhawan to retire lol

Need them around till Kohli's retirement

 

[TeymurBlake]

Khushdil Shah and Haider, probably the best hitters in the squad alongside Fakhar and Iftikhar are sitting out watching this anchoring

Agreed. Two players who could prove to be pivotal for Pakistan cricket going forward yet quarantining and carrying drinks in England.

 

[Titan24]

Need one over where one of these gets berserk and scores around 20.

 

[shariqnoor]

Pakistan doesn't have the ability to take 20 runs off an over. Its a serious issue in T20 cricket.

 

[watson367]

Need one over where one of these gets berserk And scores around 20.

Leave it to ifti

 

[Slim]

Malik to leave space for his nephew (?) in the next match. Haider Ali to take the mantle with Malik retiring. Please.

 

[coy0607]

Jimmy Anderson is not a good commentator. Needs to practise more

should travel to Pakistan and spend some time with Ramiz

 

[oatmeal]

Need 70 more in the last 5. More than 180 is enough against this inexperienced England side

 

[m.shah]

Misbah is such a shameless person by playing these two uncles.

 

[Greenstorm]

Yaar out hojao

 

[QalandarFan]

I didnt want to say it but Hafeez gets a lot of undue criticism as well. The guy was instrumental in our CT win. His batting in the final was just insane. He also has played various match winning innings. Guy has his deficiences tho.

That’s what I’ve been saying he’s the best power hitter we’ve got, I wrote a post about all his match winning innings in the last 2-3 years and he’s been clutch, but he should be coming in at #5/6 not #3.

 

[Titan24]

Hafeez and Malik debuted before MSD and we were baying for Dhoni’s retirement and people are also demanding guys like Rohit and Dhawan to retire lol

They will be here for Prithvi Shaw and Gill’s retirement as well. Age is just a number

 

[Slim]

Great effort.

 

[shamaan]

Thata hafeez in thier for next year

 

[Slim]

THEY TOOK A 3? Whatttt?

 

[Mueez]

Shot oyee!

 

[Forward Defensive Push]

England trolling us by gifting runs to Hafeez

 

[Mueez]

Hafeez showing his class.

 

[watson367]

Hafeez legend

 

[Green Patriot]

Finally a 6.
And no ball.

 

[Local.Dada]

One thing though Hafeez and Malik are still super fit. In fact Pak fans won’t like this but they seem fitter and more energetic than a youngsters like Naseem Shah and Shaheen.

 

[shariqnoor]

Hafeez cementing his place for the next ODI world cup.

 

[Slim]

Pure class.

 

[m.shah]

Hafeez is miles better than Malik

 

[Sunny_majoka]

Poor bowling,

 

[Zeshan547]

Hafeez legend

He has always been the lesser evil.

 

[IMMY69]

Malik has to hit out or get out

 

[QalandarFan]

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again best power hitter in Pakistan!

 

[Local.Dada]

England has rescued the careers of Azhar Ali, Hafeez,Misbah and probably Malik eventually. Not sure if this is good or bad

 

[unemployedgm]

Hafeez is batting well

 

[shah_1]

Club bowlers these lot

 

[oatmeal]

This is the big over that was needed

 

[m.shah]

Malik rotating at this stage

 

[Mueez]

)

Malik can only play a dab to third man.

 

[Forward Defensive Push]

Hafeez is miles better than Malik

Both are rubbish. Just that England’s bowling is rubbisher

 

[QalandarFan]

England trolling us by gifting runs to Hafeez

Yeah just like they trolled us in the 2019 World Cup when they let him scored 88 off 60 balls

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Hafeez is nasty

 

[Slim]

England being their door handles self [MENTION=131701]Mamoon[/MENTION] [MENTION=147314]topspin[/MENTION]

 

[IMMY69]

Hafeez on fire

 

[Greenstorm]

Azhar Mahmood has transferred this slow ball bemari to the English. Hafeez is loving it.

 

[shah_1]

Galli Mohalla level bowling

 

[QalandarFan]

Man Malik just get out Maaf karo yaar!
