ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2021 | Pakistan v Afghanistan | Dubai | 29 October, 2021 | Afghan innings

[pakistanisgreat]

It will be tough to chase now against Rashid and mujeeb

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

Why can't we just drop him ?

 

[sindhiboy]

Hasan alis form is concerning

 

[sweep_shot]

21 from the over.

125/6 after 18 overs.

 

[hass]

Hasan's place under threat. We knew he's expensive but usually he'd take the important few wickets to back that up and hasn't really done that today. Who knows he may still have a say with the bat later on.

 

[Alter_Ego]

Wicket is a belter though Hasan hasn't helped himself

 

[pakistanisgreat]

It's beyond to understand why hafeez didn't bowl today.

 

[Da_Future_Knick]

Wasim is a must in the next match. If Pakistan win, I would be tempted to play both Hassan and Wasim.

The better bowler of the two will play the SF.

 

[Noman]

Hasan being treated as a club bowler by Afghanistan today

hasan Ali Should not be in playing 11

 

[Inswing]

Babar! Please drop hassan ali.

 

[PakEngFan]

Hasan has been awful this tournament.

 

[silentkiller187]

Hasan's place under threat. We knew he's expensive but usually he'd take the important few wickets to back that up and hasn't really done that today. Who knows he may still have a say with the bat later on.

for his sake i hope so otherwise hes a goner

 

[Noman]

Wasim is a must in the next match. If Pakistan win, I would be tempted to play both Hassan and Wasim.

The better bowler of the two will play the SF.

Good idea @ saj send this idea to saqlain

 

[imshally81]

Hafeez should bowled 1 or 2 overs here

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Not sure as I'm sure we will need Hasan batting in the Semis or final

 

[cricketkashmir]

The way he signaled to Babar to go back to his fielding position and Babar smiled. It's not a good sign for Hasan

 

[sweep_shot]

So, Haris is bowling this over. Shaheen should bowl next over.

Pakistan should restrict Afghans to below 140.

 

[hass]

Afghanistan have managed to make a serious game of this with this partnership. 140-150 is a very difficult chase against their spin attack.

 

[Inswing]

Edge to four. Luck on afghan side, is it there day today?

 

[pakistanisgreat]

Unlucky 4444

 

[Amjid Javed]

Hasan Ali needs to be dropped for next 2 games at least.

 

[castortroy]

Wow Afghanistan are going to get 150

 

[IcedCoffee]

Well 130 up. They might cross 140 now.

 

[mastimasti]

Good come back here, I am starting to enjoy the game now!

 

[pakistanisgreat]

44444 now

 

[Inswing]

Afghanistan literally back in this game all thanks to hassan ali.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

This is actually a 170-180 pitch. Same one use for Australia-SL. Afghans are well below par.

 

[PakistanMeriJaan]

150+ definitely on the cards

 

[sweep_shot]

Four!

131/6.

9 more balls to go.

 

[silentkiller187]

150 minimum from here

 

[Alter_Ego]

It may all boiled down to how batters react. Panic seems to be setting in the Pakistani camp.

 

[pakistanisgreat]

150 on the card.
Trash bowling

 

[castortroy]

This is the problem with Rauf and hasan

So expensive

 

[Justcrazy]

135

8 balls remaining

 

[IMMY69]

This looks like a 180-190 pitch

 

[Ozeirk]

This is a good pitch guys.

 

[sweep_shot]

135/6.

Another four.

 

[hass]

Actually can't believe we've let them turn this around. Their plan has worked.

 

[IcedCoffee]

This is actually a 170-180 pitch. Same one use for Australia-SL. Afghans are well below par.

A 150 score is effectively 170-180 against the Afg spinners.

 

[silentkiller187]

score is still below par however the way pak bolwers are pancking i hope the batsmen dont do the same when they see a bit of turn

 

[Inswing]

Rauf expensive too.

 

[pakistanisgreat]

Hahhaah
Poor bowling 15 of the last over

 

[Amjid Javed]

really poor stuff with ball now.

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

Now Rauf bowling pies. It's contagious.

 

[Rana]

Terrible bowling by Rauf also

Afghanistan look like they will win now

 

[ARK Rafay]

Pakistan have given around 10 boundaries down the leg side line. Just poor bowling

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

Afg is winning it

 

[castortroy]

All emotional bowlers, afridi, Rauf and hasan

 

[silentkiller187]

credit to afg the way they turned this around tho, i thought 120 max after the powerplay

 

[sweep_shot]

Afghans are not running well. That should've been a double.

 

[Bull]

Pitch has nothing in it for bowlers.

 

[Inswing]

score is still below par however the way pak bolwers are pancking i hope the batsmen dont do the same when they see a bit of turn

Will depend on our openers. Just dont want to lose this.

 

[shah_1]

Great batting by these two and some really poor bowlng.

 

[TeamPak95]

Ohh boy, this is gonna be an interesting chase.

 

[DRsohail]

We have lost it.Garbage bowling.

 

[Savak]

Rauf bowls too many slower balls at the death. Why bowl 2 consecutive slower balls? Does he think the batsman is dumb? Why not the full blooded 150 km/hr yorker?

 

[Shafi]

Babar will fail today for sure. He cannot play spin. Afghan should win by 20-30 runs. 150 is way too much for our batting.

 

[pakistanisgreat]

Game is in favor of Afghan
60 to 40

 

[Ummii]

What's the situation of dew out there? Already that score is enough for them if the condition is dry.

 

[sindhiboy]

Rauf getting smacked again

 

[Justcrazy]

140 runs already

Can they get 150

 

[Rana]

Now I’m feeling a bit nervous

Someone will have to play a 50* knock for us

 

[sweep_shot]

140/6 after 19 overs.

150 is now possible.

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

It's not like Afghans have hit wonder shots, it's just been bad bowling.

 

[Inswing]

Afghanistan game to lose now.

 

[Nasty Naz]

Some horrific death bowling. 36 runs off 2 overs.

 

[Zeshan547]

Rauf b dhoka de gaya aaj... Anyways its still 60-40 in Pak favor considering the pitch.

 

[silentkiller187]

goes to show a team with destructive batsmen like england could easily throw this pak bowling unit off their plans

 

[Ozeirk]

Pakistan didn't come in with the right mindset into the game. Shaheen was trying too hard the first over.

 

[imshally81]

Shaheen should bowled 19 over and rauf bowled 20

 

[Alter_Ego]

score is still below par however the way pak bolwers are pancking i hope the batsmen dont do the same when they see a bit of turn

I'm afraid that's what going to happen. Should play shots, even if it means you lose wickets early.

 

[Omer2002]

On a spinning track...we bowl two spinners can anybody explain that

 

[pakistanisgreat]

We bowled very poorly today

 

[Da_Future_Knick]

Fakhar will play a big role in the chase.

Hassan has cost Pakistan big time this match, his batting hasn’t been used at all so far by Pakistan so it’s pointless for Pakistan to drag him along right now. However, I still feel he needs to play the next match. If he’s able to take 2/3 wickets over the next two games, his confidence will be back.

 

[mrtaim3]

Very poor stuff today from Pakistan. Hassan Ali should be dropped. He is the weakest link in the team. Can't risk the world cup. He is attitude is also very poor. No will to improve.

 

[ARK Rafay]

Rauf bowls too many slower balls at the death. Why bowl 2 consecutive slower balls? Does he think the batsman is dumb? Why not the full blooded 150 km/hr yorker?

I'm actually surprised. He hasn't bowled expected yorkers in this tournament

 

[bones]

Some horrific death bowling. 36 runs off 2 overs.

Took the words out of everyone's mouth.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

A 150 score is effectively 170-180 against the Afg spinners.

Doesnt work like that. Theekshana and Hasaranga are extremely good spinners and they couldnt do much yesterday. Ball wont grip much.

 

[Extreme Pace]

Pakistan has really bowled terribly at the end here, given Afghanistan a competitive total by bowling horribly to their lower order.

 

[Thanos]

Why Pak fans are worrying. ~145 chase is what Babar - Rizwan like always.
40 ball 50 and Pak wins easily.
