England vs Pakistan | 3rd ODI | Bristol | May 14th, 2019 | Pakistan Innings

[Plumb]

Asif should be in the 15. period

If he plays like that why not in 11

 

[Inswing]

Asif welcome to worldcup squad

 

[imshally81]

50 for Asif..
Well played...

 

[QalandarFan]

Asif red hot another

 

[Asif321]

Asif has grabbed his chance with both hands
while Amir been unlucky

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Second consecutive 50 for Asif now

 

[szundercover]

Asif has confirmed his place in the world cup.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Asif needs to be in the World Cup squad

 

[babajee]

Uffff get Asif into the World Cup squad.

 

[Rana]

Halwa Willy on!

 

[Mueez]

Asif bhai welcome to the WC squad

 

[Plumb]

Waqar saying " game changer" asif Ali he must be readint he afridi book

 

[topspin]

80% of PP were against Asif Ali but kudos to those who kept faith in his abilities.

 

[saeed5646]

Though today woakes have bowl well but after every boundary hit to him feels so great .This guy always have performed against us.

 

[Slim]

What a shot that was. Asif Ali has been fantastic this match as well. More of this!

Well done Imam and Asif. Take a bow. Going to take a massive serving of humble pie today.

 

[silentkiller187]

asif ali not even in the world cup squad?

 

[Titan24]

Best six hitter against pacers in recent times after Sharjeel is Asif Ali

 

[Gullycricket]

Gamechanger Asif Ali

 

[Ilan Bluestone]

England's bowling is not going to be confident going into the WC.

 

[AdamM97]

I’ve changed my mind on asif ali. Initially i was against his inclusion but now he has to be in the 15.

 

[Darkrai]

If these two are batting this well, i wonder how England will bat.

 

[coy0607]

I agree with Waqar. If one or two wickets fall before the 45th over. Pakistan will get out before rhe 48th over.

wickets can fall even if you're playing defensive cricket, that approach is heavily outdated and the reason Pakistan have been a poor ODI team

 

[Plumb]

Uffff get Asif into the World Cup squad.

and discard Faheem

 

[Markhor]

Remove Malik from the 15 and replace with Asif Ali.

 

[ARK Rafay]

You have to feel for bowlers on these kinds of condition

 

[Chokli]

80% of PP were against Asif Ali but kudos to those who kept faith in his abilities.

Kudos to you sir.

I was against it.

 

[Markhor]

80% of PP were against Asif Ali but kudos to those who kept faith in his abilities.

Yep on these flat English tracks his power hitting was going to be an asset.

 

[silentkiller187]

was this the same guy who dean jones got emotional over? kudos to him, just the type of spirit we need.

 

[Mueez]

One thing is sure.

Asif has invested lots of time in how to construct an innings and how not to play an aerial shot on every delivery.

 

[QalandarFan]

v

Yeah even in terms of clean hitting Razzaq still comes to mind first, and also Afridi.

 

[imshally81]

Good running

 

[Gullycricket]

Wiley losing it

 

[JibranAnsari]

dreaded reverse swing is here

 

[babajee]

and discard Faheem

Definitely.

 

[Rana]

Imam boy get a 170+ score and announce yourself!

 

[imshally81]

Imam ul Haq now holds the record of quickest to 6 ODI hundreds in just 27 innings. He also holds the record of quickest to 3 (took him 8 innings), 4 (9) and 5 (19, joint with De Cock).

 

[Amirforpresident]

Guys, what should Asif do against the wide almost yorkers from Willey

 

[JibranAnsari]

gone

 

[ARK Rafay]

Oh man. Not out

 

[topspin]

Kudos to you sir.

I was against it.

Kudos to you for backing Imam because I was against it.

 

[QalandarFan]

80% of PP were against Asif Ali but kudos to those who kept faith in his abilities.

[MENTION=142670]mak36[/MENTION] certainly kept faith in his abilities.

 

[Gullycricket]

No need for this Imam

 

[szundercover]

Got to admire the mental strength of asif ,still he is playing despite his condition of daughter.

 

[Titan24]

80% of PP were against Asif Ali but kudos to those who kept faith in his abilities.

I always believe players who on their day can win you match should be in the team. If you can get 11 of those you will be a top team. Asif hasnt won us anything yet but he has the ability to.

 

[imshally81]

Not out

 

[Rana]

Love this 3rd umpire! very quick decisions

 

[JibranAnsari]

buchh gya

 

[Chokli]

If these two are batting this well, i wonder how England will bat.

Butler not playing

 

[saeed5646]

Definitely.

Bhai fahim na to naak katwa de .

 

[Mueez]

Luck favoring Asif Ali.

When all things fall in place in the right way.

 

[Gullycricket]

Bairstow was celebrating as if its out

 

[AdamM97]

Pakistan fans are the worst. Play one good match and they’ll claim that you’re the best batsman and play one bad match and you’re the worst.

was this the same guy who dean jones got emotional over? kudos to him, just the type of spirit we need.

Yaaar these unnecessary run outs are not good!

 

[Chokli]

I wonder how Umar Akmal would have done on these pitches.

 

[JibranAnsari]

need to bat outside the crease against wiley. Disturb his plans.

 

[Kroll]

Can the so called "perchee" get 150? I believe that would be a record against Eng, probably not carry his bat due to having to take risks at the death.

 

[ARK Rafay]

Willey the container is back

 

[Rana]

Bairstow was celebrating as if its out

Hes fast becoming a unlikeable guy!

 

[DRsohail]

Well palyed Asif and Imam.

 

[JibranAnsari]

I wonder how Umar Akmal would have done on these pitches.

pitches dont matter to akmal , he is idiot on every pitch on earth.

 

[IMMY69]

Ball reversing is a good sign for our bowlers

 

[Mueez]

I wonder how Umar Akmal would have done on these pitches.

Just like Asif Ali, infact better than Asif...

 

[QalandarFan]

Ahh let's not stutter at the death again please!

 

[IAJ]

They know he will be bowling wide yorkers, use the crease man.

 

[AdamM97]

was this the same guy who dean jones got emotional over? kudos to him, just the type of spirit we need.

Willeys good at the end.

 

[Titan24]

I wonder how Umar Akmal would have done on these pitches.

Would have been handy, UAE has ruined a lot of our players. Cant wait to see cricket back in Pakistan.

 

[Pete Rose]

England is going to be docked a few overs, I hope

 

[Rana]

Imam 140*

 

[imshally81]

 

[mak36]

[MENTION=142670]mak36[/MENTION] certainly kept faith in his abilities.

I certainly did.

Certain posters seem to have disappeared/changed their tune. Guess they are opening their fast with humble pie.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Why wasn’t that a no ball?

 

[Pete Rose]

Just like Asif Ali, infact better than Asif...

Not sure if serious

 

[Tubs]

Woah, a lot of humble pie being dished out, save some for me! I expected a 30(50) from Imam and 6(2) from Asif. Very happy to be (so very) wrong!

 

[QalandarFan]

Full toss dispatched

 

[szundercover]

Can imam get 200

 

[Rana]

Imam solid whilst standing in his crease looking to hit the ball

 

[topspin]

I always believe players who on their day can win you match should be in the team. If you can get 11 of those you will be a top team. Asif hasnt won us anything yet but he has the ability to.

With this mediocre bowling line up, we cannot afford a batting line-up infested with accumulators, even though he can be hit and miss, we need players who can play that match winning brand of cricket.

 

[imshally81]

Imam 140 vs Fakhar 140
Which one is more entertaining?

 

[Kroll]

Pak got a plan against Eng death bowling this time?

 

[mak36]

Just like Asif Ali, infact better than Asif...

No. Asif has something Umar doesn't: a brain.

 

[Plumb]

Imam is so set must be seeing the ball as big as football
