England vs Pakistan | 6th Match, World Cup | Nottingham | June 3, 2019 | Pakistan innings

I would bring Sarfraz in next. Shoaib Malik I suspect will choke.
 
*smh* Babar gone, was playing well. Shoulda kept going, hope those that wanted him to strike at 150 are happy
 
Wicket lost just when building momentum :facepalm:

Hafeez needs to bat through here.
 
A quick fire 50 from the captain is what this team needs to turn this campaign around
 
Stupid drinks break always brings wicket babar does have power you guys are too harsh that’s the longest boundary he just mistimed it
 
sarfraz should bat till the 40th over and then get out. Don’t want him to bat in the death.
 
tbh not Sarfi coming in now as we know he's useless if he comes after the 43rd over
 
This one will be close game. From this position, PAK should reach 350+, Asif can make it 375+ ....and ENG has a task at hand.

Finally WC has arrived.

I thought WC arrived yesterday.

And who would've thought Pakistan's chances of the WC would be resting on Asif Ali, Wahab and Amir's shoulders
 
It has set a platform for the middle order to get us to 300+

The problem is we need a bit more than 300 with England's batting depth and if we do go on to lose, Imam's innings will be highlighted as the match losing knock. That's my issue with his SR today, but lets hope In Sha Allah, the likes of Asif Ali and co can flourish towards the back end of this innings.
 
he tried to go leg side miscued it to long on he had to try something you cant see of moeen..how are you suppose to hit Wood Archer or even stokes for that matter...
 
Sanga provides such good input. Babar got to the ball and he should have just bludgeoned it instead of trying to place it
 
I hope Pak realise they cant defend 300.

We needed a big score which doesnt look possible.
 
Since Babar couldn't complete his "selfish" 100, lets see if the team can now fulfill its potential and score 400+
 
Having malik at end is good actually
Top and middle can play freely knowing someone can hold innings at end
 
Nah u just dont wanna say ur wrong. Not surprised very common trait among all pakistanis..

Imam is a good investment if he pays off, we will see in a couple years. As of now hes a liability

Hes not a liability.

Pakistan has sufferred in finding a good opener and this guy is good

As long as he is batting with Fakhar, him and Imam are good. THey are infact one of the best opening pairs

Imam avgs well in the 50s and his strike rate of 80 is good.

In the past Paksitan has suffered with getting scores of 300, but now becuase of these both and Babar we are getting that score.

People have unreal expecations that Imam should bat at 100 plus strike rate this and that.

Imam takes his time, and he gets going after taking his time.

Also, who would you guys replace him with? I have seen Pakistan suffer with openers in the past, finally we got good openers, no need to take stupid risk and make changes.

I think we will fall short of a winning total, need at least 330 on this wicket with England's batting power, but I don't see us finishing this innings any better than we usually do.
 
Hafeez be like bowl me short all day that was a one off I knew Hafeez would hurt them after getting dropped
 
Hafeez as usual looking like a different player when he bats with intent.
 
the match maybe decided how sarf play here, I would have sent Malik instead of him, Atleast he could be handy vs spin.
 
Please no more stupid shots...next 10 ovs 70/1 max with singles and occasional boundary and then all out explosion for last 6 ovs
