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

[Square Drive]

Fahim

 

[ExpressPacer]

Just need to get Mathews and keep Guranartne quiet.

 

[Magyar]

It's all up to Mathews now

 

[GOAT999]

Lol at PP'ers critizing a lad who was just two overs into his career. Thank God these fans are no where near team management

I know right to many haters

 

[ExpressPacer]

140 KPH by Fahim again. Looking good and confident.

 

[pillionrider]

need more prediction plz another one gone

Keep calm and have faith in the Pakistani batting

 

[Syed1]

Pak bowling line already picked up more wickets than what Indian bowlers managed

 

[BleedGreen]

ordinary bowler fahim. everything full pitched and wide. lucky to get that wicket

 

[itsme]

140 kph

 

[roshanrocks]

Game over for Sri Lanka...

WOW

 

[imshally81]

140 KPH by Fahim again. Looking good and confident.

:shoaib

 

[Magyar]

Mathews is to score his 2nd 100 today

 

[Titan24]

Check bumrah's economy rate

No doubt Bumrah is good at the death but he struggles early the the innings when batsman is not going after you.

 

[GOAT999]

And to all the people who keep mentioning Hasan Ali's height he just proved to you all it's not about height it's about skill which that 6 "2 wahab riaz doesn't have and this 5"9 Hasan does.

 

[Hamza_]

Check bumrah's economy rate

So what. Bumrah lacked wickets in this tournament. He was averaging in early 20s, Now it went up to 25 something.

 

[Markhor]

Its all on Angelo Mathews shoulders again.

 

[ToeCrusher2]

Pak bowling line already picked up more wickets than what Indian bowlers managed

India is the only team to bowl out opposition below 200 twice in this tournament #BestBowlingAttackintheWorld

 

[Stewie]

Looks like faheem has a knuckle ball that's pitched full and wide

 

[imshally81]

ordinary bowler fahim. everything full pitched and wide. lucky to get that wicket

Oh really

 

[dauntless]

Angelo Mathews's stats against Pakistan are very good.

 

[ToeCrusher2]

So what. Bumrah lacked wickets in this tournament. He was averaging in early 20s, Now it went up to 25 something.

Bumrah was man of the match in the last game

 

[todfod 11]

faheem should bowl wicket to wicket

 

[Macho Mann]

pretty ordinary line

 

[shaz619]

Fahim cranked it up to 87mph on the back off that wicket was fired up

 

[BlueAngel]

Pak bowling line already picked up more wickets than what Indian bowlers managed

Hopefully they will do the same with number of runs too

 

[Magyar]

Game over for Sri Lanka...

WOW

Not quite yet. Captain at the crease now

 

[roshanrocks]

My crystal ball tells me that 4th wicket will fall in 18th over

 

[Macho Mann]

should really target wickets

 

[Stewie]

Pitch it up 4th stump line... come on!!!!!

 

[JaDed]

That's it for Lanka.

 

[roshanrocks]

Not quite yet. Captain at the crease now

Sorry, got carried away seeing stumps flying...

 

[Executioner]

That delivery from Hasan Ali was awesome. I am a fan.

 

[Macho Mann]

Not quite yet. Captain at the crease now

are you hungarian or sri lankan

 

[Stewie]

He should bring back Junaid for an2 over burst.

 

[battler]

[SUB][SUB][/SUB][/SUB]

Pak bowling line already picked up more wickets than what Indian bowlers managed

Your ATG bowling line up restricted chokers to 219 while our army of trundlers restricted the chokers to 191

 

[Hamza_]

Bumrah was man of the match in the last game

2wickets. What about other games

 

[roshanrocks]

are you hungarian or sri lankan

Hungry Sri Lankan

 

[Madplayer]

Not impressed by fahim's control so far. Early days though. Lets hope for the best. Impressed by his pace. High 130s is good for an allrounder.

 

[ExpressPacer]

Hasan was consistently over 140 in WI. Maybe playing so much cricket is having an impact on his body. Should he play Tests?

 

[saeed5646]

Keep calm and have faith in the Pakistani batting

yeah we will see

 

[Stewie]

Yorker. Yorker.... Yorker....

 

[Magyar]

are you hungarian or sri lankan

Wow...did u look it up?

 

[Pollack]

Asela Gunaratne is another talent hard to ignore. Watch out for him.

 

[Titan24]

Hasan was consistently over 140 in WI. Maybe playing so much cricket is having an impact on his body. Should he play Tests?

I guess playing tests has helped him with his accuracy

 

[Stewie]

Good lines and length by Hassan. He is hitting the seam well

 

[Pollack]

2wickets. What about other games

How many has hasan picked till now? Just asking.

 

[ToeCrusher2]

2wickets. What about other games

Didn't need to take any wickets against pakistan as they were bowled out for 160, had a bad game against lanka (still had the best economy) and then came out with a match winning performance in a pressure game, what more do you want?

 

[dhump]

Hold your horses guys SriLanka have enough batsman to setup good total and we have poor batting line.

 

[Executioner]

Can't say that was a great delivery that got him a wicket.

Lanka need to regroup. Get to 200 after 40 overs without losing too more than a wicket more

 

[ExpressPacer]

I guess playing tests has helped him with his accuracy

Perhaps. But then again, he's hardly played one Test.

 

[ads101]

Hasan bowling well. Looks dangerous which is refreshing our pacers have tended not to look like taking wickets even if they bowl well and keep the runs down (i.e. often Amir).

 

[dauntless]

Sialkoti is doing really well.Really good to see!

 

[Executioner]

Finish off Imad now. No point bowling Ashraf now.

 

[Stewie]

Honestly speaking junaid bowled better than Amir. Amir is bowling like a machine on a good length. No creativity. No surprise he isn't getting wickets. Junaid was keeping them guessing and trying different things.

I am honestly disappointed in amir

 

[Titan24]

Perhaps. But then again, he's hardly played one Test.

Yes but when he came into the scene he was good with variety and stuff however he is really accurate now as well and is hitting the seam on regular basis

 

[Macho Mann]

what a poor pathetic fielding

 

[dauntless]

Yeaaah faheem that's it! Haters gonna hate!

 

[Nasty Naz]

It amazes me how much is everyone obsessed with pace...

It's probably why a scrub like Wahab keeps making the squad all the time.

 

[Hamza_]

Didn't need to take any wickets against pakistan as they were bowled out for 160, had a bad game against lanka (still had the best economy) and then came out with a match winning performance in a pressure game, what more do you want?

Lacks bite in bowling. Would like to see him in long run.

 

[GOAT999]

Sialkoti is doing really well.Really good to see!

Hes from kasur

 

[Markhor]

Nicely bowled. Pakistani bowlers hitting the right lines.

 

[BleedGreen]

hmm

 

[Madplayer]

Like i said, ordinary control so far.

 

[Titan24]

Hes from kasur

I guess he is talking about hassan ali

 

[dauntless]

Faheem needs to relax !!

 

[Sam18696]

What is this new guy bowling

 

[saeed5646]

Like i said, ordinary control so far.

debut and knockout game i think he is nervous

 

[dauntless]

Hes from kasur

Who?? Hasan Ali?? I don't think so

 

[Titan24]

What is this new guy bowling

Chill, its his first match for Pakistan

 

[ExpressPacer]

Fahim has done his job. Bring on Hafeez.

 

[saeed5646]

Who?? Hasan Ali?? I don't think so

fahim

CI

He was born in Kasur, a city close to the Indian border, and about a 45-minute drive from Lahore. You might know the city for the shrine of Bulleh Shah, the celebrated Sufi poet-saint, and also as the birthplace of Noor Jehan, one of Pakistan's most famous singers. If he plays for Pakistan, Ashraf could become another reason the city is known for - he would be the first from Kasur to play for Pakistan.

 

[castortroy]

Pak over rate is very slow

 

[Titan24]

Who?? Hasan Ali?? I don't think so

No Faheem is from Kasur and Hassan is from Sialkot or somewhere around

 

[ammar_merry]

fahim from kasur hassan from gujranwala

 

[Lynx]

You lot are honestly pathetic. Criticizing a guy who has just bowled the first few overs of his career, citing him as a 'trundler' when he's easily hitting 138kph-140kph and then calling his wicket 'lucky.' Meanwhile, you lot will defend the wicketless wonder Amir to death just because he USED to be good some good 6-7 years back. Kudos to you all.

 

[castortroy]

18 overs bowled in an hour and half

 

[Titan24]

Pak over rate is very slow

Drawbacks of playing four fast bowlers

 

[Madplayer]

debut and knockout game i think he is nervous

I know. Not saying he is bad or something. Jist saying his pace is impressive so far in this match but not the control.

 

[GOAT999]

I guess he is talking about hassan ali

Hassan Ali is from mandi bahaudinn which is my city but some people say he got selected from mandi bahaudinn but he originally from Gujranwala I would really like to know where he's from if someone has nay information on him

 

[dauntless]

I don't understand so much hate for faheem.He has bowled decently so far
