ICC CT 2017, 1st Semi-final | England v Pakistan | 14th June, 2017 | Cardiff | England Innings

[Adil_94]

lets keep it under 240 lads.

 

[classic]

Imad is all talk and drama

As long as hes bowling a tight channel without being expensive I will take it at this stage ...It will only build pressure .

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Rashid can't put bat on ball

 

[Madplayer]

Wow roman reign seriously good

 

[Vitaly]

What a build up it's going to be India-Pakistan Final

 

[F0ulu]

Lovely from romman reigns

 

[Inswing]

Areeey ruman bus out kar do ab shabash

 

[Titan24]

What great bowling from raees

 

[dauntless]

Rumman seem like a decent death over bowling prospect

 

[amax]

need Stokes out otherwise he can make last onslaught

 

[MMHS]

Hasan Ali has most wickets by a Pakistani in an edition of the CT. 9.

No

 

[Hasan123]

Rashid doesn't look as comfertable vs pace.

 

[Square Drive]

There is one record today so far, if I am not mistaken - one can look at the scorecard & tell me what.

All wickets were caught?

 

[ExpressPacer]

Raees is making Rashid look like a No. 11.

Blessing in disguise Amir is out.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Rumman is excellent

 

[Syed1]

need Stokes out otherwise he can make last onslaught

Is he going to take score to 400 like Indians and Deshis predicted?????

 

[Madplayer]

Rumman is the most cunning bowler in all of Pakistan .

 

[Asif321]

these situations are made for ruman

 

[imshally81]

Beauty

 

[IndYeah1]

Seems like none of the Pakistan fans have any problems with Sarfraz calling Shadab beta constantly.

 

[the Great Khan]

Impressed here with Roman. thought he would be smashed to pieces but looks like the pitch is helping..well done boy

 

[ExpressPacer]

no

ok

 

[Hasan123]

Raees should bowl till the end.

 

[Stallion__]

Toying with Rashid :

 

[TalhaSyed]

[MENTION=100918]Square Drive[/MENTION] - Rumman running rampant on Rashid

 

[Syed1]

There is a reason why Rumman has the best economy in both seasons of PSL.

 

[PerfectionPersonified]

Stokes vs Pakistan today

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Wide wth

 

[Adil_94]

come on Rumman #BELEE DAT #THISISOURYARDNOW. [MENTION=46929]shaz619[/MENTION] [MENTION=47617]Red Devil[/MENTION]

 

[Sohail11]

We have really done our homework here amd put on a great balling display. Good areas, kept the pressure up... Who do we contribute this to? The team? Thr coaching staff?

 

[mayankp.sverige]

and Australia

Ya true.

Pakistan is the only team that can stop England.

 

[ExpressPacer]

Like this young blood we have in the team. Not afraid to get the heat up.

 

[Square Drive]

Ah, then we are to chase a 300+ today, Beware.

Acha beta

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Eng should max get to 220 from here.
Come on Pakistan.

 

[Saeed]

We are doing great guys. England was expected to score much more.

Pakistan have a serious problem if England bat first. England's average first-innings score since the 2015 World Cup is 306.

http://www.espncricinfo.com/icc-champions-trophy-2017/content/story/1103318.html

I know it's not over but we should be able to restrict them to 230.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Still need more wickets here, we know stokes can be destructive and plunkett can also swing the bat will probably be next man in.

 

[Inswing]

Brilliant by roman

 

[Asif321]

lovely by rommiiii

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Seems like none of the Pakistan fans have any problems with Sarfraz calling Shadab beta constantly.

Its a term used endearingly,not used to make fun of him.

 

[Hasan123]

Was never a wide.

 

[MMHS]

OK, I need to leave now -

Has anyone ever seen PAK's card in 43rd over with ONE EXTRA in it?

That's Arthur for you - difference between a Pro & a novice.

Thanks//

 

[Speedster1]

Great length by Rumman

 

[Madplayer]

Mantra to win on this surface, DONT HOOK OR PULL in the air. Just play out the 2 bouncers per over

 

[dauntless]

Very good over by rumman

 

[Lynx]

Rumman showing why he's the best death bowler in the country. Brilliant over.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Last 7 overs will make or break this game i think!

 

[mayankp.sverige]

Hoping for epic India vs Pak final . i hope Pakistan wins today.

 

[Syed1]

I can't help but laugh at the analysts who weren't even giving Pakistan a chance. 43 overs and still score <200

 

[ExpressPacer]

Seems like none of the Pakistan fans have any problems with Sarfraz calling Shadab beta constantly.

May not be the case in India but in Pakistan it is common for elders to refer to young ones as beta out of love.

 

[Square Drive]

Tell me about it brother!!

Our bowling line up has shown phenomenal resilience in this competition mashallah!!

Luck didn't go our way to start off with - Amir injured, Bairstow not given in the 1st over, Hales decision overturned - however, MashAllah our boys sticking to their plans and doing brilliantly here.

Hope they can close the innings out well here inshAllah & then we really need our batsmen to hit their strides today

IA bro I'm getting great vibes.

This trophy is ours IA IA

 

[BleedGreen]

Lets hope our batting clicks today!

 

[RobinJay]

I kind of have a bad feeling about our batting today.... we don't have Fahim or Amir both of whom can bat a bit. Shadab and Raees have yet to prove themselves in that department.

 

[Sarfarazian92]

Amir getting injured might be a blessing in disguise.

 

[Inswing]

Shehzda agya

 

[JibranAnsari]

7 overs to go , should not let them score more than 240.


The pitch isnt flat.

 

[Hasan123]

Ruman and Junaid have hopefully ended wahabs LO career

 

[Syed1]

Like this young blood we have in the team. Not afraid to get the heat up.

And what about Azhar and Hafeez.. lmao

 

[the Great Khan]

need another wicket as stokes can swing and it only takes a good couple of overs..

 

[dauntless]

Nope you can't mess with babbar sher

 

[classic]

need Stokes out otherwise he can make last onslaught

Excellent bowling rotation by Sarfraz has kept him in check . He is not being allowed to free up .. I reckon it maybe just too little too late if or when he decides to.

 

[Square Drive]

[MENTION=100918]Square Drive[/MENTION] - Rumman running rampant on Rashid

Ahahaha Amir who?

Glad to be proved right. #SpiritSquad never goes wrong

 

[Aman]

England need 250 to be competitive.

 

[Red Devil]

Roman Reigns not doing too bad [MENTION=132954]Aman[/MENTION] #BigDawg

 

[Syed1]

Best bowling attack in the world

 

[CricVet]

Rumman is the most cunning bowler in all of Pakistan .

nah. 2nd after hassan

 

[imshally81]

Great fielding...

 

[ExpressPacer]

Is this even Pakistan? SO MUCH ENERGY.

 

[Azzurri]

David LLoyed Constantly blaming the pitch. Crying maybe??

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Is that out?Looks like he made it

 

[Titan24]

Atherton asking you would have liked to have hassan in your team!
Ponting saying all the captains would like to have him

 

[Madplayer]

Wowwwwwwwwwwww runout

 

[Red Devil]

:

 

[dauntless]

Go get them babbar sher!

 

[Lynx]

Out. Brilliant.

 

[Ankit007]

pakistan lets off these tailenders making runs. Did that against SA and SL both. They need to keep taking wickets. Pakistan should stop them before 230

 

[imshally81]

 

[the Great Khan]

hahahaha

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Oh it's brilliant fielding

 

[shabir kham]

stokes please hit a boundry

 

[MABA]

Great fielding
