Pakistan need 212 to beat England and qualify for the Champions Trophy final.

Can they do it?
 
If Pakistan cannot chase 212 then there should be whippings and floggings all round.

Come on lads !
 
For the love of all things good in this universe. Pakistani batsmen please chase this. PLEASE!
 
If Pakistan don't chase this target.i would say a word to them.once misbah said to umar akmal
 
Fakhar Zaman will walk through this target

Pakistan without Amir looks like a stronger unit. Rumman Raes is awesome man, roman reigns
 
Still a lot of cricket to be played - however, Pakistan should really back themselves here InshAllah.

Moeen, Adil, Pluncket & co. could be an absolute handful on this pitch, however, InshAllah hoping the boys can step up and deliver!

I'm gonna stick my neck out and say that I think today it will be Hfaeez & Malik who get us over the line :srt
 
Should be very easy for them. Just one 50 plus partnership and all over...
 
I hope Pakistan bat as good as they bowled. I hope to see Azar rotating the strike, and not negate the positive strokeplays of Fakar
 
I hope England chase this down comfortably to rub it in for the English pundits bringing up the pitch.
 
please do it . will be first time in history Pakistan in CT final
 
Whomever goes into final from Ind/Bd will dare not bat first against this rampant bowling attack. :))
 
I just woke up and I'm gonna say it Loud and proud to everyone who didn't believe me told you so!
 
Straight forward, dull but winning run chase coming up.
 
to stokes n co, IPL does prepare you for many things except for facing pakistani bowlers.
 
lets hope our batting doesnt disappoint us today. We need our traditional, attritional an gritty UAE type batting display for once to win this match.
 
These seniors have no excuse now, wicket is like UAE or Asia, they are expert of spin in last 10-15 years, nothing to chase,what else they need??
 
Looking forward to Azhar Ali playing smoothly and not putting pressure on Fakhar Zaman.
 
There was talk on CI that Sarfraz was limping around. Is that correct? Hoping he is okay, need him on this wicket.
 
Absolutely rubbish pitch. It feels like the match is getting played on a typical UAE or Mirpur wicket. Why on earth the match is getting played on a used pitch instead of a fresh one. ICC needs to be questioned for taking such an absurd decision.

Ridiculous.
 
We pretty much have to maximize the first ten. It will get treacherous as the ball gets old.
 
England players look confident as of now.. they are hoping Pak batsmen would help their cause. lets see. I feel this is pak match to lose from here. eng are 30 runs short here.

at least now Pak fans will not whinge about conspiracy.
 
[MENTION=53290]Markhor[/MENTION] appears as such a calm and collected individual, but I reckon he's actually the most agitated and energetic person here to watch cricket with haha
 
Easy chase, unless Azhar adds few with this total.
 
Good running for Azhar. He should keep taking singles and let Fakhar to hit the boundaries.
 
There's no way England is defending this score. Easy win for Pakistan.
 
Pakistan have hit a six in the very first over while England wasn't able to manage one the entire innings.

However, still a long way to go for us.
 
10 off the over. England trundlers are lucky they didn't get spanked for more.
:))
 
Fakhar needs to be wary on the shortball as england will pepper him with lots of short stuff. Good start though 10/0
 
Please dont pull and hook. Leave those 2 balls per over.
 
Fakhar knows how to balance his innings, he is not a tullay baz like Afridi and few others.
 
Please BAT well!

And let's win this with 7 wickets in hand and go with some confidence to the final
 
Hoping for India-Pak final

This would be easy boring chase for everyone except Pak :P
