What's new

England vs Pakistan | 5th ODI | Leeds | May 19th, 2019 | England innings

Bairstow is a tremendous player but he is not well-liked even in the England camp. He is one whiny character.

He’s so annoying every time a bowler bowls a good delivery he looks at them like they must have done some cheating or something
 
Hasnain is bowling machine for English batsmen and y’all were making fun of wood for saying we will score 500 now look at the run rate they are all set for even more
 
That happens when you just panic and pick players out of nowhere. There is no doubt Hasnain is a promising bowler but he is not ready yet, bowls two good balls and then 3-4 poor ones.
 
Sarfraz’s fat belly cannot just run twos, but is struggling to dive (missed rashid catch) in the last game

He wants to be the first-choice WK batsman in all formats but England are not giving into his whining, at least not yet. They even took gloves from him in Tests.
 
Inzi should be slapped for selecting Hasnain. Even in PSL, he wasn’t impressive. This guy will be smashed by everyone in the WC.
 
Experiment of Hasan Ali with new ball prematurely ends in obvious disappointment :( In first place - why there was a burning desire to watch a guy with 5'7/8" height and poor new ball skill bowling with new ball? I mean, new ball isn't the strength of PAK attack and that white new ball feels like wet soap for each of them apart from the con man Amir - Hasan was at least good with semi old ball - why fix something that's not broken?
 
These 7 overs have been embarrassing

I get the flat pitches but this bowling has been truly horrendous
 
Another mistake by specialist captain. Remember he doesn't need to bat well to stay in the team. :uakmal
 
Sarfraz can't even keep now, can't captain, can't bat, what can he do, help me guys, i can't figure out.
 
Afridi deserved that wicket. If it wasn't for some garbage fielding and field settings by Sarfraz and pathetic support from the other end, he could've had even more wickets.
 
Shaheen you beauty.
He has bowled the best today and people were already talking about dropping him for the worldcup.

He was excellent with it last match.
 
Sarfraz needs to motivate his players now! Showing up with a depressed face won’t win you matches.
 
This series has shown how poor the planing has been from Pakistan leading up to the world cup. Regardless of results, the selectors and the team management must go for their continuous blunders.
 
Shaheen needs to hit a hard length and bowl as fast as he can. None of this slower ball, defensive length crap that I have a sneaking suspicion either Azhar or Sarfraz is whispering in his ear. The only way to succeed on these pitches is to fight fire with fire. He has the fundamentals as a bowler to attack batsmen and should use them to his advantage.

People here see a kid perform in 1-2 matches and start demanding they be fast-tracked into the national team. Fans are equally to blame as selectors - this is not the 80s and 90s where you can just chuck kids into international cricket from nowhere.

These kids should first learn their craft and pay their dues in domestic cricket. Shadab Khan barely played any 4 Day cricket yet he was given Test debut on back of a few limited overs performances. Recently we've seen him struggle against top teams. We're seeing Hasnain struggle but it's unsurprising having played hardly any List A cricket.

Lol we r usernames are reversed I didn’t know there was someone with the same username

The Australia series already showed everyone the incompetence in Pakistan’s management.
 
Vince is so frustrating man. Looks a million bucks but always manages to throw it away.

Absolutely . Bowl to intimidate

Apparently Sarfraz insisted on the selection of his Quetta teammate.

What can you expect when you have someone with no analytical skills and thinks we're still in the 90s where we can blow everyone away with pace.
 
There has been about 10 runs in the opening few overs here that could've been stopped had the fielders been inside the circle. If Sarfraz and the team management are afraid of getting hit for boundaries then they are welcome to take the first flight back home.
 
Embarrassing watching these bowlers and fielders

Watch Woakes take out the first 2 or 3 and England catch everything
