ICC CT 2017 | Pakistan v South Africa | 7th June, 2017 | Birmingham | Pakistan innings

Rabada is bowling rubbish today. Should be interesting to see him up against India.
 
[MENTION=139075]Hadi Rizvi[/MENTION] Like I said, Rabada most definitely IS being smashed all around the park. Earlier it was Zaman and now Malik. Had a bad game vs Lanka too.
 
Ill take Tahir over Shadab any day pal

Good for you taking a 37 years old guy over an 18 years old one

Plus he is gonna be in the top rankings when Tahir will be retired which is not far by the way looking at his age

Malko should be our number four.. Hafeez can be our number fourteen.
 
Azam is out of form but still good enough to stick around and avoid collapses.
 
Imran Tahir looked really threatening, wonder why he was taken off?
 
Something is wrong with Babar. Lack of form, fitness or whatever it is, this is the worst I have seen him play.
 
Malik showing how its done.

He is playing to take DWL above 4 wicket level, which is 3 runs short now - that's AB is also trying, otherwise none finishes best overs by 30th over in a tight defense. If Tahir returns, my hunch is he'll go after him. Mian has lots of shortfall, but he is the only functional head there.
 
Azhar shouldn't be anywhere near the team. Tracks around the world are all flat regardless of where you play

england dropped alistar cook. Pak need to do the same
 
We just need to play out morkel with few strikes here and there. Rest are manageable.
 
Malik shouldn't be batting below Hafeez. Hopefully he'll cash in today after a making a good start vs India before getting run out.

The reason why India has become a far more professional side than Pakistan is because they no longer look to accomodate players. They would drop Dhoni the instance he stops performing, however, Pakistan sticks with a burden of a player rather than letting the ideal No.4, the captain himself bat at that position

Spot on..
 
Now that Babar has got a positive partner, he has become positive as well. Hafeez had trapped Babar.
 
Can we be around 135 by the 30th over. That is 22 runs in 4 overs.

I agree to it. India has taken so many steps for merit right from there Independence when they took out feudal from politics ( I am sorry for making non cricketing statement. Please take it as an example)
 
Rabada is very dull as a bowler,if he screws up against India he will end up following up with his team and not performing in ICC tournaments inspite of him being #1 and the pitch suiting bowlers.
