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

[Mueez]

I am proud.

Gosh I wish I could watch the match today.

 

[szundercover]

300 is no way near enough guys...400 wont be i think unfortunately..you are forgetting english line up...need some spin maybe later on even then we are relying on hafeez to bowl 10 overs...

world cup pressure will be differentThey will feel the pressure and its showing today.

 

[Pakhs]

They just need to bar first 5 overs after the power play

 

[Markhor]

Wow it seemed Hasnain was given license to knock the batsmen's heads off in the nets

 

[topspin]

I am backing him to take wickets today.Ever since he made his come back till world cup boundaries usually have come from edges and batsman mispulling the pull hence his figures are expensive.The figures dont do justice and hence he looks expensive,sarfraz should bowl with 3 slips and be ultra attacking.

We need wickets but come on 3 slips is a bit in excess don't you think on such a batting friendly wicket? Sarfraz probably doesn't even know his 3 best slip fielders anyway

 

[Gullycricket]

Wow Grant Flower actually doing something

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Superb start ....

Looks like the other side of Pak has turned in today

330 and Pak is winning this game. Let's see what can these English super stars can do in real WC matches when RRR is > 6. People have to follow what Aus did in warm ups, keep taking wickets and they can't score even run a ball in last 5.

 

[Sherazkhalid]

Again too many dot balls, we need to convert those to singles.

 

[Ronaldo7]

Did wasim just say 40+ is a norm??

 

[szundercover]

yeah you are right 3 slips is too much ,lol but he needs to be aggresive at least early in 5 overs.

 

[Hasan123]

I hope we don't leave every bouncer lol.

 

[Cric1234]

When Imam has a decent strike rate you know the pitch is a pancake.

 

[Arsalan Pro]

Good over from Mark Wood.

 

[Sirris]

So far so gooood boys, keep it up.

 

[Mean&Green]

Not a bad start hit England up with a 69

 

[JibranAnsari]

How is malik going to play these quicks?

 

[Zeshan547]

Don't know what's the hype about wood, he has below average stats, what else he have other than pace, he may trouble our rock stars but good teams will target him as weak link.

 

[Hasan123]

The people doing banghra need to relax. We need to actually get a score and then defend it before doing banghra. There's a long way to go.

 

[randomcricketfan]

Damnit England i wanted the first 500 plus score. Why did you bowl first Morgan?

 

[Sherazkhalid]

7 runs from last two overs, need to at least get run a ball.

 

[Amirforpresident]

Fakhar is either going to smash Ali or get out to him

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

When Imam has a decent strike rate you know the pitch is a pancake.

Unfair

 

[Pete Rose]

Here for the thread whining about how Pakistan shouldn’t be complacent because pitch is full of runs and this reversal more to do with conditions.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Why pakistanis dont play sweep shots anymore , the best way to disturb spinners.

 

[Hawkeye]

Imam needs to start playing some shots.

 

[topspin]

How is malik going to play these quicks?

Trademark dab to 3rd man until he's gone.

 

[Hawkeye]

Anything below 380 would be chased easily.

 

[Ahmed216]

This isnt the 400+ sort of wicket that we usually see at trent bridge

 

[JibranAnsari]

Need to keep up the run rate , can not allow moeen to bowl a good spell here.

 

[Pete Rose]

The bigger success here is Pakistan seeing off Woakes unscathed

 

[Hasan123]

Spin will play a part today.

 

[Zhasan]

Eng will over haul whatever total Pakistan put up in less than 40 overs

 

[Zeshan547]

Fakhar spin game has really regressed, he murdered Ashwin and jadeja, now struggling vs moeen bhai halwa bowling, smash those lollipops out a ground man.

 

[topspin]

The people doing banghra need to relax. We need to actually get a score and then defend it before doing banghra. There's a long way to go.

It seems Eid has come early for some

 

[Pakistani Pace]

Should be making most out of Moeen

 

[JibranAnsari]

11 runs in last three overs , keep up the pressure guys.

 

[Usman Chadda]

The bigger success here is Pakistan seeing off Woakes unscathed

He is a rubbish bowler. Not sure how we have given away so many wickets to him lately

 

[Ronaldo7]

Eng will over haul whatever total Pakistan put up in less than 40 overs

It's a WC match not a bilateral series.

 

[Hawkeye]

This isnt the 400+ sort of wicket that we usually see at trent bridge

It's an excellent pitch. Outfield lightning quick as well.

Bowlers will really struggle. Pacers.

 

[Hawkeye]

What are these two doing?

Playing Moin as if he's Murali. Slowed down the scoring. His bowling is so YUM, pies!

Any SC batsman should be ashamed if they can't hit Moin out of the park consistently.

 

[Hasan123]

It seems Eid has come early for some

Just sums up the mentality. Hitting a few boundaries and all is forgotten.

 

[SulmanPK]

Is it me or Imam is rotating strike better than Fakhar.

 

[imshally81]

Should be wide

 

[Usman Chadda]

How was that not a wide?

 

[Cric1234]

Moeen should be targeted over midwicket.

 

[Mercurial]

They have slowed down. Not good.

 

[AdamM97]

Is it me or Imam is rotating strike better than Fakhar.

That is his job. Fakhar is an aggressive batsman while Imam’s job is to play deep and rotate the strike.

 

[Hasan123]

Need to keep the pressure on England.

 

[saeed5646]

Here for the thread whining about how Pakistan shouldn’t be complacent because pitch is full of runs and this reversal more to do with conditions.

Already spotted few .

 

[Hawkeye]

Is it me or Imam is rotating strike better than Fakhar.

Not the time to do that.

Play at least one freaking cover drive for a boundary. How difficult is that? Even my 10 year old niece can do that.

 

[Mainul]

Hafeez and Malik are the key here. They should give it back to their team. Their last WC.

 

[Red Devil]

Russel Arnold )

 

[Markhor]

Wasim with another gem.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

He is a rubbish bowler. Not sure how we have given away so many wickets to him lately

Rubbish ? Since 2015 CWC, he has probably been the best bowler in the PP1 taking wickets and getting more seam movement than anyone else. He's just down on pace due to a knee problem.

 

[Azzurri]

That is his job. Fakhar is an aggressive batsman while Imam’s job is to play deep and rotate the strike.

Both of them must play agressively. We can afford to have 7 guys in out lineup doing the same tuk tuk job

 

[WC-Passion]

69-0 after 10 overs is the best score so far in the tournament at that point. However even 390 could be difficult to defend on this pitch.

 

[Zeshan547]

Field spread and now they are struggling to find boundary

 

[Gullycricket]

Russell Arnold lol

 

[JibranAnsari]

Not good , pakistan releasing the pressure on england.

 

[Sherazkhalid]

14 runs off last 4 overs, things have slowed down, time for a big over.

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

Wicket slowed down?

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

Wood is making the difference.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Rubbish ? Since 2015 CWC, he has probably been the best bowler in the PP1 taking wickets and getting more seam movement than anyone else. He's just down on pace due to a knee problem.

Half of those will probably be against Pakistan, which is why his stats look great.

I'm not certain on the stats, but I don't see anything special in him.

 

[BreadPakoda]

Pressure building up

 

[Hawkeye]

69-0 after 10 overs is the best score so far in the tournament at that point. However even 390 could be difficult to defend on this pitch.

Yeah, 350-380 and Eng would fancy their chances.

 

[sindhiboy]

Eng should have opened with Mark wood

 

[Ahmed216]

It's an excellent pitch. Outfield lightning quick as well.

Bowlers will really struggle. Pacers.

Not as good as the ones prepared by ECB. I think Ball is sticking a bit in the pitch when moeen is bowling

 

[Omer2002]

we need to carry the momentum as so much batting we playing with today..cant let moeen off with just singled...also its very unfair they are getting away with short pitch deliveries ..no other option but to upper cut or hook and prob get out....

 

[Pete Rose]

Wasim vs Rameez: commentary for audio impaired

 

[Sir-fraz]

Guys remember this is a WC match. If we can get to 370+ the game is ours.

 

[the Great Khan]

Eng pulling it back a bit but these two need to just continue and we need to hold onto our wickets

 

[Zeshan547]

Man it's criminal how they are paying vs moeen,

 

[Pete Rose]

Who won the toss btw

 

[Nikhil_cric]

And some people thought a fit Mark wood bowling with good rhythm is not an automatic lock in CWC squad.

 

[CricFan2012]

We need 400 here. Anything over 420 is a guaranteed win.

Of course if any bowler steps up it should go our way too.

 

[Akki malhotra]

330 plus and Pakistan would win. I am dead sure.

 

[Pete Rose]

Eng pulling it back a bit but these two need to just continue and we need to hold onto our wickets

They’re holding back a bit till the 15th

 

[Sir-fraz]

We need 400 here. Anything over 420 is a guaranteed win.

Of course if any bowler steps up it should go our way too.

Lets be realistic. We r not gonna get 400 plus..

If we can get 370 plus we should be fine.

 

[Mean&Green]

It’s turning turning

 

[JibranAnsari]

17 runs in last 5 overs.
