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

[Madplayer]

Drizzling now.

After 20 overs Pak need to be 70-2 according to d/l.

 

[Speedster1]

No matter what anyone says. There is no justification how Hafeez has batted 1 off like 20 balls that is just not on!! Wth

 

[Crafty_Indian]

AB is a very unimaginative captain. He should be handing it over to Faf imho.

 

[KhalidRafi]

I want Pakistan to lose this match. WE DONT DESERVE TO WIN THE TROPHY

Neither do South Africa. Their serial chocking in pressure games is worse than any thrashing Pakistan get

 

[Zeshan547]

Babar has been equally pathetic, best bat, if he is our best, then God forbid.

 

[yasir]

There is no side ways movement on this pitch, what the hell is wrong with these guys??

 

[Watsupdoc]

Rain in the air. Finally some runs in that over.

 

[Pete Rose]

"our plan was to get to it through wides..."

 

[Pakistani Pace]

Babar's playing an ugly knock at the moment, but if seeing him in the side makes you throw up, good luck, because we don't have a better prospect at the moment.

Also, Babar has a future; Hafeez doesn't.

Im just messing around.
Babar is the best batsman in Pakistan.

 

[prayas]

more to come after imran tahir

 

[imshally81]

Good Running

 

[JaDed]

Absolute filth bowled by Morris in this over.

 

[shah_1]

What's the D/L after20 overs?

 

[DHONI183]

And now, after that lovely and encouraging cameo from Fakhar, this stupid tuk tuk is slowly taking over.... I hope they at least keep the singles coming.

 

[Pakistani Pace]

Babar has been equally pathetic, best bat, if he is our best, then God forbid.

 

[Square Drive]

Good running. Getting a move on now.

 

[Madplayer]

What's the D/L after20 overs?

70-2

 

[Pete Rose]

morris will be banished to the women's team for having hafeez score runs off him

 

[DoosraTeesra]

We didn't simply lose to India. We were humiliated.

 

[JaDed]

They have the fire power to make up for it later though so it doesn't matter and even top order can adjust their style of play accordingly

Yes,but other teams are start going to make plans for it now.

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

Yeah that's true, though I'm willing to give him a final few games as opener (only because he provides utility with his bowling), I really won't have any complaints if he's dropped right this moment.

this guy think he deserves to bat at 3 over babar azam , he will always have complaints

 

[Watsupdoc]

Tonight, WE TUK TUK IN HELL!

Let's get to 70/2 and then tuk tuk till 20 overs.

 

[zn426]

Drizzling now.

After 20 overs Pak need to be 70-2 according to d/l.

Surely even batting this slow can score 18 runs in 7 overs without losing a wicket.

 

[Colt]

We need to be 70/2 in 20 overs to win according to D/L

 

[JibranAnsari]

We will lose this by 70 runs.

 

[prayas]

70/2

 

[JaDed]

We didn't simply lose to India. We were humiliated.

Cut it down.

 

[gishy]

I want Pakistan to lose this match. WE DONT DESERVE TO WIN THE TROPHY

Yay...that's the spirit.

 

[Zeshan547]

Babar to Hafeez "what you can do I can do better" (Tuk tuk)

 

[Square Drive]

this guy think he deserves to bat at 3 over babar azam , he will always have complaints

He's the TTF I hate the most, though.

His bowling is extremely useful and he can have his days with the bat.

It's not as bad as being stuck with others.

 

[Saeed]

These two need to move on, they have played enough balls to adjust to the conditions.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

AB is a very unimaginative captain. He should be handing it over to Faf imho.

Certainly. Very bland captaincy. Absolutely clueless .

 

[gishy]

Man, these two are putting me to sleep. After wasting several overs they will slap one to cover.

 

[Madplayer]

Surely even batting this slow can score 18 runs in 7 overs without losing a wicket.

Dont challenge Pakistan's batting. They will prove you wrong.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Babar is totally clueless how to rotate the strike.

 

[Cryin Out Loud]

Tonight, WE TUK TUK IN HELL!

That was dead funny.

 

[Pakistani Pace]

Babar needs to hit the gym

 

[Arham_PakFan]

2-7 in 5 overs

 

[yasir]

In England you are suppose to play down the ground, where as in AUS you have to play on the square, Pakistan has been doing opposite, what is batting coach doing??

 

[Syed1]

So much tuk tuk since Fakhar got out.. unfortunately work is coming in the way otherwise I would have been blasting them here on PP

 

[Syed1]

Babar needs to hit the gym

Right now he needs to hit the boundaries.

 

[Zeshan547]

Now how many of you would bet your money that will be at least 70/2 at end of 20? at least I won't.

 

[Pakistani Pace]

cmon Babar

 

[Madplayer]

Right now he needs to hit the boundaries.

Even singles would do.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Now how many of you would bet your money that will be at least 70/2 at end of 20, at least I won't.

I bet we will be 68/4

 

[srh]

Drizzling now.

After 20 overs Pak need to be 70-2 according to d/l.

so Pakistan will lose this game if it start raining now? Damn Babar and Hafeez

 

[Boi]

In England you are suppose to play down the ground, where as in AUS you have to play on the square, Pakistan has been doing opposite, what is batting coach doing??

There have hardly been any drive balls. They've bowled mostly short or back of a length,

 

[Madplayer]

Tahir warming up lol we are in for some fun

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Is rain imminent?

 

[Pakistani Pace]

Chokers Vs Chokers Lool

 

[Square Drive]

so Pakistan will lose this game if it start raining now? Damn Babar and Hafeez

If it starts raining now, it's a no result.

 

[Madplayer]

Finally babar scoring singles.

 

[Mp812]

We didn't simply lose to India. We were humiliated.

150 run loss is common nowdays ... nothing humiliating

 

[Syed1]

They are going to let the RR escalate to 6 and 7

 

[prayas]

Tahir is warming up

 

[Syed1]

so Pakistan will lose this game if it start raining now? Damn Babar and Hafeez

5 overs to score 13 runs and not lose a wicket.

 

[Madplayer]

How woeful are these batsmen?

I just hope babar is out of form lol and its nothing permanent.

 

[Watsupdoc]

13 runs in 5 overs - can Pak do it or will they lose it?

 

[Saeed]

Is rain imminent?

Right now dots are raining heavily, hopefully it will change in few minutes.

 

[Madplayer]

5 overs to score 13 runs and not lose a wicket.

Sounds impossible.

 

[Pete Rose]

What's going in Pakistan's favor is that de viliers is the captain and not faf

 

[The cricket enthusiast]

150 run loss is common nowdays ... nothing humiliating

common for pakistan you mean?

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Stop moaning.

Just win.

 

[darksher]

Don't know when will Pakistan cricket get rid of the cancer that is Hafeez and Akmal brothers, they always seem to find their way back to the national side regardless of their non-existent performances.

 

[Madplayer]

Babar is bad against gogly

 

[Screopho]

what's the equation if they lose 1 more wicket.

 

[Zeshan547]

Wese guys agar ye phattu team somehow semi final k liye qualify kr b le tu Kya faida, wahan b epic phainty will be awaiting them, and hr koi SA tu hota nai k Jo aisi rubbish team se haar jaey

 

[f430gt3]

I had low expectations from Fakhar. But I am impressed. I hope it was not a fluke.

 

[Pakistani Pace]

57-2 15 overs

 

[Syed1]

Brother Tahir please have some respite for your fellow Muslim brothers

 

[gishy]

Few boos ring around the ground as Tahir comes on..

 

[badsha001]

who was saying Azhar Ali was playing bad?? He had a better strike rate than these jokers at the crease lol...

 

[darksher]

What's going in Pakistan's favor is that de viliers is the captain and not faf

Doesn't make a difference in Pakistan's case.

 

[Pakistani Pace]

Dont worry guys Inshallah we will win

 

[Nil Dhumrojal]

Tahir need to take two quick wickets if they want to win this game

 

[Syed1]

This is some epic level tuk tuk

 

[JaDed]

How is Rabada #1 bowler in ODI? Haven't been following rankings and lol didn't look anything special today and the pitch has much for bowlers.

Good in tests though.

Edit:commentator just showed the charts for me

 

[Saeed]

Brother Tahir please have some respite for your fellow Muslim brothers

By that you mean he should get these two out?

 

[sehwag fan]

How is babar any better than azhar Ali? ? Why preferential treatment for babar even after he failed against all teams apart from windies

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

When you watch Hafeez it's difficult to believe he's not trying to throw the game.
