What's new

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

once we get 250 by 40th over, then it will be show time

Waiting desperately for Asif Ali to come
 
He has to score a big hundred here for Pakistan to have a chance: given what we know about Hafeez’s career do you see that happening today?

He has already contributed quite a bit till now.

Getting to a 100 would be ideal, but you're putting all the burden on his shoulders.

Nevertheless if he can get to a 100, that would obviously means an excellent total.
 
looks like sarfaraz ate all the criticism doled out to the team after the last game. Carries it well :akhtar
 
Oficially eng worse fielding performance since 2016 and theyve only bowled 35 overs!!! Pak have to take adv and get score upwards of 340. (Though its a 370+ pitch)...

You are damn right I am putting it on his (or Malik’s) shoulders. Why should Pakistan play two 40 year olds with mediocre records if after playing two decades of cricket they can’t win it for their team 9 out of 10 times
 
Need a 100 from Hafeez now.

Pakistan cannot miss the target of 350 in 40 overs. Sarfraz should look to keep a 100+ SR.
 
Only spinner has taken wickets so far. Need Shadab, Hafeez and Malik to stand up and deliver.
 
Hafeez showing class. He gets hate for no reason. He is a changed man in the last 2 years. Never slows the scoring rate.
 
Srafraz will build dots on and then put pressure on hafeez. He himself cant hit long ball as seen against england. Very poor
 
Getting to 330+ will be down to Hafeez or Malik, in my opinion, they are the two who can clear the boundary. Not counting Asif as I just don't see him doing it.
 
going for shots when his role now is to just give Hafeez strike, but that too much common sense

Hafeez has delivered today though.

And, that kind of expectation isn't there for any senior batsman in any other team. I mean, single-handedly winning 9/10 times.
 
We will miss Hafeez when he will retire.

Hafeez 2.0 is a great version.
 
Think we’re putting too much pressure on Asif Ali.

Dare I say it, having Umar Akmal > Malik might’ve been a good idea. Needed another power player. Oh well this is the squad for the WC
 
Sarfraz :facepalm:

You are not a slogger so don't pretend to be one. Just work those singles against the quicks.

Malik is going to score quick six and then give his wicket away as usual.
