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

[sajjad786]

they should change something bring in hafeez they are batting very easily

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Poor start.

 

[Ellipsism]

Everyone who hates on junaid on this forum seriously needs to get a life tell me if you have a better option

Ehtisham Sultan, Bashir, Irfan Jr and Mudassar are all better than the dross that is Junaid.

 

[Crafty_Indian]

Let's see how many these young'uns from SL take from your attack.

 

[Mamoon]

Both Amir and Junaid define mediocrity. Even a club opener won't get out to such harmless bowling.

 

[Farhansk]

I want one more over from junaid. He can then be replaced by Hasan.

 

[ExpressPacer]

I still feel like a wicket is around the corner with Junaid bowling. Sri Lanka will be under pressure because of the last over. I feel like these two are extremely talented but impatient batsmen and that might cost them.

 

[JaDed]

Good over by Amir, remarkable how after one over judgements get passed here.

 

[roshanrocks]

Great over by AMir... Proving to be better than Junaid

 

[Indiafan]

I personally think Amir is most talented but his poor tactics deprive him if wickets.

I have not seen much of his talent except being able to swing when conditions are helpful. Being a wicketless wonder is not going to help his team win games

 

[Mainul]

If Srilanka gets a good start,they will be the favorites here to win.We all know,how team of Pakistan crumble under pressure.Put up a good score around 300,that is all required for Srilanka.

 

[Ellipsism]

These Indian's bragging like they have some world class pace attack, same attack that SL bullied to chase 320.

 

[Arsalan Pro]

1 run of the over.

 

[Macho Mann]

wanted junaid to come in place of hasan, should have opened with hasan ali

 

[roshanrocks]

I also feel Junaid can get a wicket as the batters are being over aggressive against him.

 

[czar]

Junaid strikes, take that haters.

 

[Mamoon]

Reverse-jinx by me.

 

[Spidy201]

watching junaid after long long time. there is definitely a kink in his bowling action. are umpires and match officials blind?

 

[ExpressPacer]

What did I say...

 

[Shafi]

Both Amir and Junaid define mediocrity. Even a club opener won't get out to such harmless bowling.

Are you still thinking we can make semi with so many weak spots in our team?

 

[Titan24]

Out. Juni the great

 

[Indiafan]

Good over by Amir, remarkable how after one over judgements get passed here.

He is over 90 without taking a wicket in this series. How is it based on one over? How does being a wicketless wonder help his team? Meanwhile Junaid takes a wicket. Amir supporters will say its because of Amir's pressure despite both batsmen hitting every over so far

 

[Stewie]

I have a bad feeling.. the body language of our guys is not very encouraging

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Finally

 

[ads101]

Yay, free wicket

 

[JaDed]

Already a wicket lol [MENTION=132399]lanka[/MENTION]

 

[itsme]

That's better,bowl quicker and stop the runs'flow

 

[saeed5646]

Ehtisham Sultan, Bashir, Irfan Jr and Mudassar are all better than the dross that is Junaid.

enjoy the match

outttttttttttttt

 

[Ellipsism]

Lol, fluke wicket.

 

[sajjad786]

mubarkaan

 

[ExpressPacer]

Reverse-jinx by me.

Keep at it.

 

[Arsalan Pro]

 

[Belawal2014]

Fear SL's dibbly dobblers will wreak havoc on this pitch.

 

[TahirFan]

The dangerous Gunathilaka gone

 

[Indiafan]

What did I say...

What you said was nonsense. Both the batsmen were hitting every over anyways.

 

[roshanrocks]

I also feel Junaid can get a wicket as the batters are being over aggressive against him.

:

Am i a genius or what!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Nado_]

I personally feel many teams have seen amir as the main threat bowler and have had a plan to play him out/be cautious

 

[Nasty Naz]

Junaid strikes!

 

[GOAT999]

How times have changed seriously that much of over cast and ball not even swinging a bit it's like they are playing on a road not in Wales this is really bad for the game tbh a bowler like amir would be swinging it bananas if the pitches had anything to offer for the swing bowlers in these conditions.

 

[dauntless]

So he------ got a wicket!;

 

[Ellipsism]

enjoy the match

outttttttttttttt

Nothing on Junaid's part, batsman just hit straight into the hands of the fielder.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

So Junaid takes a wicket...mendis in next

 

[Farhansk]

I want one more over from junaid. He can then be replaced by Hasan.

And he gets a wicket on the very first ball. Thanks Sarfraz for keeping confidence in the second best pacer in your team after Hassan Ali.

 

[ammar_merry]

Good over by Amir, remarkable how after one over judgements get passed here.

changing again

 

[Mamoon]

Are you still thinking we can make semi with so many weak spots in our team?

If we restrict them to 300, we will be in with a good chance.

 

[Titan24]

Junaid is more experienced in loi than Amir (due to his ban)

 

[Hayreddin]

well that was unexpected

 

[Red Devil]

Nothing on Junaid's part, batsman just hit straight into the hands of the fielder.

It was a slower ball.

 

[Arsalan Pro]

Mendis in.

 

[The cricket enthusiast]

3 dots from Amir.... now wicket will fall.....

wah. bravo

 

[world cup captain]

Reverse-jinx by me.

Keep it up. We need you today.

 

[Crafty_Indian]

These Indian's bragging like they have some world class pace attack, same attack that SL bullied to chase 320.

Bro on that pitch with the way their batsmen were playing your bowlers would have also been taken to the cleaners. Actually our pacers still did a decent job it was only Jadeja and Panama who really were blasted away.

 

[sajjad786]

a good over by amir brougt this wicket

 

[JaDed]

He is over 90 without taking a wicket in this series. How is it based on one over? How does being a wicketless wonder help his team? Meanwhile Junaid takes a wicket. Amir supporters will say its because of Amir's pressure despite both batsmen hitting every over so far

He is not as good as many fans hype him and neither as bad as haters say,defn in the middle but still among their toughest in PcT because opposition plans for him,he defn doesn't seem as keen Pak bowlers of yesteryears but still better than current lot.

 

[ExpressPacer]

What you said was nonsense. Both the batsmen were hitting every over anyways.

Your opinion. With such impatient batsmen on the crease and attacking lines, even Ashok Dinda would get a wicket. It is Amirs defensive strategy that deprives him of wickets.

 

[Arsalan Pro]

Good bowling.

 

[Ellipsism]

Bro on that pitch with the way their batsmen were playing your bowlers would have also been taken to the cleaners. Actually our pacers still did a decent job it was only Jadeja and Panama who really were blasted away.

What else can you see through your crystal ball?

 

[dauntless]

Fear SL's dibbly dobblers will wreak havoc on this pitch.

Nuwan pradeep has been very good this tournament he has bowled good lines with good pace.I think he can pick a wkt or 2 upfront

 

[Indiafan]

a good over by amir brougt this wicket

Because the batsmen were not hitting in every over? This blind Amir worshiping is sickening to be honest, its not fandom, just blind hero worship

 

[czar]

a good over by amir brougt this wicket

Yes, this wicket deserves to be included in Amir's column.

He's behind all the wickets that Pakistani bowlers take.

 

[Titan24]

Amazing line and length by Junaid

 

[ExpressPacer]

Terrific over. 1 run in 12 deliveries after that carnage.

 

[dauntless]

Good over by--------

 

[saeed5646]

Nothing on Junaid's part, batsman just hit straight into the hands of the fielder.

i guess you miss the second over the guy how got out was nervous after that and play a bad shot

 

[Titan24]

Hopefully Amir will now strike as well

 

[Arsalan Pro]

Please Amir get a wicket.

 

[Nasty Naz]

Wicket maiden. Fantastic over Junaid.

 

[czar]

Hopefully Amir will now strike as well

Nope he is only there to help other bowlers take wickets.

What a selfless bowler.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Whilst Sri Lanka still have Vaas, Murali and Herath ?

Our batting is more worrying especially if the pitch offers something for seamers.

Our batting is the issue , 320 is a chaseable target these days.

 

[TahirFan]

1 run 1 wicket in 2 overs . ggod stuff

 

[ExpressPacer]

A boundary is around the corner.

 

[New Yorker]

Yes, this wicket deserves to be included in Amir's column.

He's behind all the wickets that Pakistani bowlers take.

I couldn't agree more. Am just grateful that Wahab is gone, because while both he and Amir were bowling and not taking wickets it was really difficult to tell which one we should give credit to.

 

[Macho Mann]

pathetic amir as usual, two slips for him and cant bowl on ball in a good line

 

[Arsalan Pro]

Full delivery goes for 3.

 

[dauntless]

Faheem looks a very good sprinter

 

[JaDed]

Good over by--------

Cheering for Junaid today.

 

[New Yorker]

Our batting is the issue , 320 is a chaseable target these days.

Not with Azhar and Hafeez. Just awful that both of these jokers were selected. Sarfraz coming in at 6 surely.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Looks like gonna be another wicketless day for amir. Drop him if he doesnt get a wicket in this match.

 

[Red Devil]

A few overs from Hafeez wouldn't be a bad idea here. Maybe he can get Dickwella.

 

[Mamoon]

Sri Lanka have a strong domestic structure, and their school cricket in particular is top notch. All of their young batsmen are technical, dynamic and stylish. You can see that they have been properly coached.
