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

[dauntless]

Babar azam! What!!? Got out like his cousin! Soft dismissal

 

[Madplayer]

Pathetic from Babar

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Soft dismissal. Timed it well but right into the hands

 

[Syed1]

Garbage from Babar.

 

[Barragan]

Such a poor and lazy shot

Disappointing

 

[Nasty Naz]

Oh god, we now have to watch Azhar and Hafeez bat together.

 

[Boi]

Poor from Babar. Hasn't had a very good tournament.

 

[darksher]

God damn you Slater, is that how you announce a wicket.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Pathetic from Golden Boy

 

[Sohail11]

Bhai someone please tell Babar not to imitate his cousins the akmal brothers. would be a massive shame...

 

[shaz619]

Shobba Stopper #SaveUs

 

[Macho Mann]

i have always rated babar azam less, he is a very overhyped player of pakpassion

 

[super hitter]

Malik aka perpetual debt is just having a purple patch wait how wood etal will clean him

Others aren't even having that...lol

 

[JaDed]

i have always rated babar azam less, he is a very overhyped player of pakpassion

Why do rate him less?

 

[Magyar]

Wheels coming off ?

 

[JibranAnsari]

Babar is a pakistani batsman after all.

The worst partners ever now.

 

[JaDed]

Positive intent form Moha

 

[Rayyman]

Hafeez in at #4

 

[Colt]

Req RR will be over 6 in the next 10, if these 2 play their customary tuk tuk knocks.

 

[Macho Mann]

Why do rate him less?

he flops against half decent teams, is only a minnow basher plus slow strike rate

 

[JaDed]

Very good innings by young Fakhar )

 

[Syed1]

Cannot afford to lose another wicket before 150.

 

[ToeCrusher2]

These two need to bat for another 10 overs without losing a wicket

 

[Arham_PakFan]

I hope Hafeez gets out and Malik or Sarf take us home.

 

[m.shah]

Babar is another minnow basher..

 

[ask_analyse_act]

Poor from Babar. Hasn't had a very good tournament.

he has been poor in england so far... yet to get a fifty...

 

[dauntless]

"The professor" against his most favorite opposition. Professor special comin up

 

[Sadevdesai]

We might still blow this match !!!!!

 

[JaDed]

he flops against half decent teams, is only a minnow basher

Fair enough.

 

[Kianig89]

Blessed in all facets SL favs now unless these two have a 50 prtrnshp

 

[Syed1]

Imagine a guy who is playing his second knock is already the most dependable guy in the side

 

[LastManstanding]

What is cousin's average in odis?

 

[aniket1911]

Just checked the score, amazing innings by sharjeel 2.0.
Imagine an opening pair of Sharjeel and fakhar. Other team bowlers will be shaking inside if such scenario materialise.

 

[JaDed]

These two need to bat for another 10 overs without losing a wicket

Only then will it become interesting,Moha although looks like he is not in mood to be mocked

 

[ask_analyse_act]

I hope Hafeez gets out and Malik or Sarf take us home.

hafeez likes lanka bowling attack not expecting him to tuk tuk... will play like ponting today...

 

[Syed1]

These two need to bat for another 10 overs without losing a wicket

I see you were no where to be found just 5 overs ago

 

[The intelligent Supporter]

Batting is All about placement

Same shot by Kohli a few inches away from mid wocket would have raced to blundary and looked so good

 

[Kianig89]

Should have sent one of Hassan or Fahim to up the ante

 

[Joginder_Sharma]

Pakistan think tank is not pro-active. They should have sent Shoaib Malik in here. He can take this game away from SL in 10 overs. Anyways time for classical Hafeez knock. And just as I type this .. he's out.

 

[Boi]

Expect a run out when these two are batting

 

[ToeCrusher2]

Only then will it become interesting,Moha although looks like he is not in mood to be mocked

Exactly

 

[Rayyman]

Yessss!!!!!!!

Professor gone

 

[aniket1911]

Trust Pakistan to make a match out of nothing.

 

[shah_1]

Hafeez you are pathetic

 

[super hitter]

Imagine a guy who is playing his second knock is already the most dependable guy in the side

Hahaha, so true, and here goes another

 

[uzairmanzoor13]

Panic mode on. This will go down to wire.

 

[Crafty_Indian]

I don't know, has Babar always been this poor. He just hasn't got going against any attack and that too on these flat roads. I don't know if he is really of a good caplibre or just another hyped up Pakistani batsman with poor temperament.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

hafeez likes lanka bowling attack not expecting him to tuk tuk... will play like ponting today...

You were saying?

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Hahahahaha

 

[dauntless]

No professor special disappointed

 

[Barragan]

LOL

What was he doing at no. 4 anyway?

 

[shah_1]

Pakistan think tank is not pro-active. They should have sent Shoaib Malik in here. He can take this game away from SL in 10 overs. Anyways time for classical Hafeez knock.

Classical knock indeed from Hafeez=zero

 

[Kianig89]

Sarfraz should come out

 

[Syed1]

Collapse is on

 

[Inswing]

Damnn all eyes on malik now

 

[Sunzi]

Shuro ho gaya.

Bukwaas

 

[Adil_94]

Babar n Hafeez gone. Pak wobbling

 

[super hitter]

Noooo,

for the 1st time after a long time he was trying to play for the team...Oh wait because it was Srilanka

 

[JaDed]

Nothing shot but tbf he didn't waste balls,so don't think people should blame him today.

 

[Nasty Naz]

The terrible Hafeez is out too. It's an easy chase and Fakhar put the team so far ahead and they are still going to struggle with this. Typical.

 

[castortroy]

This batting line up is so bad it's not even funny anymore

We make any total look like 350

 

[zn426]

Hafeez getting out. Hopefully Sarfraz can get a move on. Match is still in our favor but now SL has the momentum.

 

[Haroon786]

Hope he gets kicked out for good.

 

[ask_analyse_act]

You were saying?

may be its time his area of dominance is also gone downhill..

 

[Macho Mann]

tha should conclude hafeez's career, should not be given any other game

 

[ToeCrusher2]

I see you were no where to be found just 5 overs ago

Au contraire, I had gone for some work and pak started scoring freely in my absence, as soon as I opened the scorecard again they started choking

 

[Joginder_Sharma]

Lol, he got out as soon as I typed it.

 

[castortroy]

Get Malik out and srilanka are favorite

 

[Inswing]

Please yaaar just dont lose from here please

 

[Magyar]

Yeahh...baby

Malcolm Perera

 

[uzairmanzoor13]

Need to keep an eye on the par score too. It's getting overcast.

 

[desi_launda]

3 gone....not sure which team to support......

 

[super hitter]

Noooo,

for the 1st time after a long time he was trying to play for the team...Oh wait because it was Srilanka


So basically, Hafeez was trying to duck that one too and got a surprising shot bowl

 

[darksher]

Lol Hafeez bottled it again, if the management doesn't drop him for next game, I'll lose all hope in this team.

 

[big_gamer007]

Malik looks impressive in this tournament

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Seriously if we choke this....

 

[troodon]

Mian yeh kya choking chal raha hain!!!

Pak making this more interesting than it should really be.

 

[ask_analyse_act]

You were saying?

may be its time his area of dominance is also gone downhill..

 

[JibranAnsari]

Srilanka 70 30.

 

[Sane.Cricket.Fan]

Azhar Ali deserves more respect. he might not be the most flashy but he does appear solid and not hot headed
