ICC CT 2017, Group B | Pakistan v Sri Lanka | 12th June, 2017 | Cardiff | Pakistan innings

[Markhor]

Beautiful drive.

 

[Madplayer]

50 for the skipper

 

[Mamoon]

Both teams showed why they are ranked so low.

 

[Syed1]

Amir better than Babar

 

[Inswing]

Shabash sarfraz shabash

 

[imshally81]

50 for Sarfaraz

 

[Walid88]

If Sarfraz get the man of the match. That will be a shame. Even Amir batted a lot better than him

 

[ToeCrusher2]

Congrats Pakistan
I said it first

No, I said it first

 

[Mast Kalandar]

Pak can't lose this from here.

Pakistan will find a way to lose

 

[Madplayer]

Amir should be the man of the match....

Lets win first please

 

[Saurav]

Congrats Pakistan

now beat England

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Shot!!!

 

[zn426]

Oh, here comes the big over to break the run rate! 20 runs to go!

 

[Mamoon]

Ganguly: "it is not over yet", every time Pakistan looks like winning the game.

 

[Chief Destroyer]

20!

 

[battler]

To be brutally honest, this is one of the lowest quality matches you will ever see.

When people say low-scoring matches are good cricket; nonsense.

This is awful cricket which is great to watch because tension and we care abt the result.

True this. And when kohli chases down 350 scores we see threads like flat pitches, poor quality bowlers etc

 

[ExplicitAI]

for the champ!!

 

[Syed1]

Best innings of his life

 

[JaDed]

for the man!

 

[Markhor]

Deep down most of us know that even if we win from, it won't really mean much as we know the team won't progress further

Very true, our deficiencies are clear for all to see. However it would still be a good achievement to reach the SFs given how nearly everyone predicted a group stage exit for us.

20 more needed.

 

[Square Drive]

SAIFIIIIIII ;

 

[Zerotohero]

England will be happy with whomever they face as there is not much difference in both teams

 

[saqibjamil]

Agreed!

 

[Ankit007]

Well even if Pak wins this. I am not sure if they would be too happy. But they need to correct themselves soon, else England will surely make them pay

 

[Nasty Naz]

Wow, only 20 needed now. Please don't blow it Sarfraz!

 

[KingKhanWC]

Shot



50 up for Skipper, well played sir

 

[Syed1]

Well even if Pak wins this. I am not sure if they would be too happy. But they need to correct themselves soon, else England will surely make them pay

It's ok.. as a 8th ranked side we will whole heartedly take semifinal exit.

 

[WC-Passion]

Ganguly: "it is not over yet", every time Pakistan looks like winning the game.

I'm starting to think he doesn't like Pakistan but I'm not sure what makes me think that....

 

[MMHS]

Mubarrak ho .............

(Don't even think of chasing against Poms) - chances are high that PAK will defend 170 against that Pom batting line-up, rather than chase 170 against same Pom attack)

 

[member250]

Ganguly: "it is not over yet", every time Pakistan looks like winning the game.

1 required of 30 balls with 3 wickets in hand,

Ganguli: its not over yet

 

[Madplayer]

Darting it in

 

[amvbfm]

Amir deserves to be the MOTM if we win this.

 

[Executioner]

Good 50 but I am not sure how to rate it given 2 drops, several run-out chances.

 

[The intelligent Supporter]

Ganguly: "it is not over yet", every time Pakistan looks like winning the game.

I notced that


BUT HE IS NOT WRONG

 

[Madplayer]

What an innings by amir..seriously great innings. Gold.

 

[Aman]

Best innings of his life

You can't be serious? He's had half a dozen lives

Amir is the one who has impressed.

 

[akamaka]

Well even if Pak wins this. I am not sure if they would be too happy. But they need to correct themselves soon, else England will surely make them pay

yeah so conflicted. Obviously want the team to progress, but same time don't want azhar, hafeez, imad issue to go under radar

 

[Square Drive]

Singleeeeeee

 

[KingKhanWC]

De Silva ...whoever he is comes into the attack at this stage.

 

[Syed1]

Amir better than Azhar, Hafeez and Babar.

 

[WC-Passion]

Sensible batting from Amir, better than some of our "specialist" batsmen.

 

[saqibjamil]

Just 19 more - please no more wickets.

 

[imshally81]

Ganguly: "it is not over yet", every time Pakistan looks like winning the game.

I appreciate your positivity today..

 

[super hitter]

Told you, now say thanks

 

[Seen Sheen]

We may go on to win but every aspect from the team apart from bowling has been abysmal. No spine whatsoever shown by batting. Some are handicapped by having horrendous mental strength who wilt sensing even tiny bit of pressure while others are just poorly equipped to handle any sort of above average medium paced bowling.

 

[Messiah]

England will crush any of the minnow that goes through from this game

 

[Syed1]

18 needed

 

[Nostalgic]

Are they saving Malinga for the 50th over?

 

[saqibjamil]

The two men on the Pakpassion background are doing it!!

 

[pillionrider]

Please don't give Sarfaraz 'Composure of a Hamster' the Man of the Match.

Amir for me. Bowled well and out batted his captain

 

[JaDed]

Lankans have given up,body language disappointing now.

 

[member250]

17 needed

 

[MMHS]

I'm starting to think he doesn't like Pakistan but I'm not sure what makes me think that....

I can give you a clue - he is Bangali & he is a Hindu (no offense) must have/had lots of relatives in east side of border - there is absolutely no reason, absolutely no reason for him to like PAK........

Hope it doesn't hurt, but it's bitter true.

 

[Sunzi]

Still think theres a twist in the tale here.

 

[Syed1]

17 needed.

 

[Pakpak]

You can't be serious? He's had half a dozen lives

Amir is the one who has impressed.

1 dolly and a one 50-50 isn't half a dozen.

Knowing how fragile mentally our midgets are he's been good. And has batted with tail-enders.

 

[Madplayer]

Rameez unlucky is back

 

[Aman]

SFs going to suck.

India v England rematch of 2013 seems like a lock.

Actually going for India... screw England.

 

[KingKhanWC]

3 hits will do it boys

 

[Cricketfan2016]

I appreciate your positivity today..

Would add extra joy beating pak in finals if they reach there

 

[JibranAnsari]

(I am refraining from posting)

 

[Syed1]

Are they saving Malinga for the 50th over?

They were like all the chances he is making we are dropping anyway might as well save him the trouble.

 

[imshally81]

Amir deserves to be the MOTM if we win this.

No itz Sarfaraz..

 

[Madplayer]

Sarafaraz dont risk for a run

 

[Boi]

Rameez manhoos back for a final spell to try and get the last few wickets

 

[member250]

16 needed

 

[saqibjamil]

Amir bowled well as well. Combined effort - the guy deserves it.

 

[JaDed]

So much hate for Amir in the start of the match,looks like he turned everything around.

Blunt but true.

 

[Markhor]

Supporting Pakistan has to come with a health warning.

 

[ToeCrusher2]

3 hits will do it boys

Yeah 3 hits will do, 3 wickets

 

[Aman]

1 dolly and a one 50-50 isn't half a dozen.

Knowing how fragile mentally our midgets are he's been good. And has batted with tail-enders.

He nearly ran himself out another 2-3 times...

 

[Square Drive]

SFs going to suck.

India v England rematch of 2013 seems like a lock.

Actually going for India... screw England.

It will be Pakistan vs Bangladesh.

 

[Madplayer]

by amir

 

[Adil_94]

thank god dadi off commentary.

 

[Inswing]

Shabash Amir

 

[Syed1]

Supporting Pakistan has to come with a health warning.

My BP must be in the 200 range at the moment

 

[Aviator]

Shoooooottttt yaaar

 

[super hitter]
