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

Azhar Ali needs to keep in mind he is playing an ODI and not a test match - strike rotation is key.
 
One boundary followed by three tuks. That's Azhar Ali for you.
 
Sounds like Nasser is trying to help the sorrow of defeat by saying pakistan will make it difficult on themselves.
 
No way in hell are they bringing in Haris for the final. Unfortunately we are stuck with him till the end of the tourney

They should, no way we are going to chase a big target with Hafeez and Azhar in team.
 
Despite all these liabilities Pakistan is finding a way to win. LMAO


:salute

They're chasing 210 on a tricky pitch in a semi final and already have a RR above the RRR lol, what do you want them to do?

All they have to do is survive, if it means a RR of 4 then do it, because that wins the game and thats all that matters.
 
Khuda ko maan Azhar. One boundary doesn't mean you can block ten balls on the trot :facepalm:
 
I bet Azhar even play same way in domestic ODI matches

In the PC last year, his team was chasing 350 odd and Azhar scored a selfish century of 130 odd balls and he celebrated as if he had won the world cup. His own team wasn't cheering for him enthusiastically. Tells you about the mentality of the man.

yes because you know him personally of course..
 
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.
Pakistan scoring runs with ease.

England on the way out after looking certain to win the tournament :)))

Why aren't they using a different pitch to one played on just a few days ago, doesn't make sense," grumbles Daniel. "I may be a stroppy England fan here but it's just ruined this match as far as I'm concerned."
 
This guy Fakhar should thank his stars that he didn't debuted 3/4 years back - wouldn't have made even PSL draft ....... solidity, stability ..........

Not every match can be a 300 run hackfest Daniel, enjoy the change of pace!
 
The way we are playing reminds me of the 1999 World Cup semi final against New Zealand
 
With that strong bottom hand grip, Fakhar needs to be careful about slower balls.

They're just mad that Pakistan are bosses on slow pitches.
 
PCT is denying the neutrals a mini collapse today.Why is Ball continuing ,bowling absolute crap.
 
Good start

But I wont be comfortable till we are 140-3 or (or better)
 
Lucky escape. Don't want Fakhar to get out. Think he could take apart Moen and Rashid.
