ICC CT 2017 | India v Pakistan | 4th June, 2017 | Birmingham | Pakistan innings

[Abdul]

Will Pakistan be able to pull this off?

 

[PennOne]

Prepare for Tuk Tuks

 

[shariqnoor]

People may find this stupid but if anyone is going to chase this down, it's down to 2 players, Ahmed Shehzad and Shoaib Malik. Ahmed Shehzad is the only top order player who can accelerate and has the big shots.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

starts with a wide

 

[PennOne]

And there is it is.. Ball 1. Tuk. Ball 2. LEAVES the ball

 

[shariqnoor]

India will bowl 1 bouncer and 1 short pitch every over.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

These 2 need to see off the new ball for the first 30 overs

 

[Square Drive]

Any chance of rain?

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Good leave. Beautiful leave

 

[Hasan123]

Azhar needs to show intent

 

[Fahdi]

Do people still have hope of Pakistan winning?

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan leaked away too many runs , if they hold on to the chances would be chasing 275 here

 

[msb314]

We MUST get off to a flier - esp with the thread of rain.

 

[PennOne]

Nice test calibre batting. beautiful straight defense

 

[super hitter]

I just wanna skip through the pakistani opening but fortunately, it live

 

[world cup captain]

That's the way to go Azhar. Take off the shine of the new ball.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Dont see us scoring anything more than 220

 

[Pakistani Pace]

Loool

 

[adzzy786]

How much I'm missing Sharjeel

 

[yasir]

I wonder how many of these players were fasting in last few days??

These cramps and low energy has killed us. You cannot fast before big matches... These guys cannot be fasting and playing matches. Look at what happened today

 

[Zak_Fan]

Bhuvi bowling late 130s already. Not bad for a trundler.

 

[Justcrazy]

India is not going to give chances here . They will look to bowl in right areas.

 

[msb314]

Good leave. Beautiful leave

i see what you did there :

 

[FlickedOffHips]

How does one embed tweets in a thread? there's a funny one i want to share.

 

[Pakistani Pace]

Thinking outside the box

 

[Hasan123]

Babar and Malik are the key in this chase

 

[Greenshadow]

Stop making excuses, unless you're trolling.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need to rotate the strike well here , try to look to milk the bowling instead of looking for big shots.

 

[big_gamer007]

Need a couple of early wickets

 

[Hawkeye]

BK the only bowler in CT swinging the new ball.

 

[msb314]

Good shot!

 

[Nil Dhumrojal]

Hope bumrah and shami get 4fers

 

[TalentSpotterPk]

Poor running. Should have been 3

 

[PennOne]

haha. just one scoring shot. this is what you will get with this pathetic opening. chasing over 300.

 

[castortroy]

Bhuveneshwar already swinging more deliveries than anyone of the pak batters

 

[hadi123]

Lol. not with Azhar Ali and Shehzad being 30 off 12 overs. Praying for rain

 

[Pakistani Pace]

Now watch our batsman make it look like a tough pitch

 

[msb314]

lets get a boundary off the last ball.

 

[Greenshadow]

Unfit/fat 11.

 

[big_gamer007]

BK the only bowler in CT swinging the new ball.

He is class when it comes to swinging with new ball.. Lately he has improved death bowling as well

 

[On_the_up]

"Significantly well timed" eulogizes Rameez.

Wadaplayer

 

[JibranAnsari]

Bhuvi to get 5 fer.

 

[TalentSpotterPk]

Hope bumrah and shami get 4fers

Bengali ji Shami is not playing.

 

[msb314]

Do not leave balls Azhar

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

I wonder how many of these players were fasting in last few days??

These cramps and low energy has killed us. You cannot fast before big matches... These guys cannot be fasting and playing matches. Look at what happened today ������

They were drinking water man. Only Amla was fasting and Mashallah he scored a Ton

 

[big_gamer007]

SR of 70 for both openers in 2017 amazing

 

[On_the_up]

Now watch our batsman make it look like a tough pitch

Need to take the shine of the new balls, wkts in hand, score 200 in the last 20 overs.

 

[Shafi]

If we score 175+ will be a moral victory.

 

[desi_launda]

by Shehzad

 

[Pakistani Pace]

Bhuvi to get 5 fer.

This teams pathetic no point watching

 

[Hasan123]

Good shot Shehzad

 

[castortroy]

It's funny but india in the last 2 years have gone way ahead of us in the bowling department as well

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

These are perfect batting conditions.

 

[adzzy786]

SR of 70 for both openers in 2017 amazing

Modern day cricket

 

[Ankit007]

Good shot. Won't write Pak off. They can very well do it if we don't pick wickets

 

[Greenshadow]

Great match, in the end cricket is the winner.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Good shot

 

[desi_launda]

Pakistan should aim to be 65/1 or 55/0 after 10

 

[On_the_up]

"license to thrill" Shezy with a cracking shot

 

[big_gamer007]

Pakistani start has been better than our start..

 

[PennOne]

Good shot. Won't write Pak off. They can very well do it if we don't pick wickets

stop trolling, pakistanis ourselves have written the team off.

 

[adzzy786]

Shot

 

[Justcrazy]

shehzad

 

[shravan]

Pakistan shouldn't panic and lose early wickets

 

[Nil Dhumrojal]

Shami not playing

 

[Saeed]

These two need to survive the first 10 overs if Pakistan hopes to chase this.

 

[TalentSpotterPk]

Wow. Shehzad has good willow.

 

[msb314]

Good shot by Shehzad.

 

[Jatt_bonebreaker]

good batsman this dude shezad is... hopefully gets out sooner.

 

[Barragan]

This total can be chased down, but don't think this Pak batting line up can.

 

[SpiritOf1903]

Pitch is flat, bowl not doing anything.

Play sensible!!

A platform for lower order please. Ya Allah Khair.

 

[castortroy]

I would back a team like England, SA and Aus to get this but definitely not the feeble batting of pak

 

[Pakistani Pace]

Azhar 2 of 6

 

[JibranAnsari]

Pakistan should try to score 100 in 12 overs.

 

[Hasan123]

Pathetic analysis from Ramiz. Babar is number 3 end of story.

 

[On_the_up]

Half decent over, will Azhar blindly block the last 2 balls

 

[msb314]

good single

 

[desi_launda]

Solid start by Pak. 10/0 after 2

 

[Justcrazy]

If you want to chase a 320 runs total , you need solid partnerships , and avoid low scoring overs , make sure you get 4 - 5 runs every over , and a boundary every alternate over

 

[JibranAnsari]

Missed out on a short ball.
