ICC T20 World Cup 2022 | Pakistan v England | Final | MCG | 13 Nov | Pakistan innings

[Arsal_AK]

Brilliant Babar. Play through and everyone can go around him. We need something to defend first. Not an easy pitch to bat on.

 

[volcyz]

England will struggle to chase anything over 140

 

[Fazzy321]

A lot of 2s will be vital here in middle overs

 

[Suleiman]

Who is going to play an inning like Pandya for Pakistan?

Shadab, Nawaz or Ifti.

To every Pak fan giving up already lol, This ain’t over

 

[Sherazkhalid]

Can’t see us scoring more than 160.

We need 180+.

160 be good too, I don't see us reaching that either, 145/150 with current RR

 

[Colorblind Genius]

momentum was shifted into England's favor when Rizwan took that totally unnecessary break to give English bowlers 5 minutes to regroup - that was it!

 

[topspin]

Don’t blame Harris here

He was doing his best to recover the no time set by the openers

Agreed. He should’ve been opening instead of selfish Babar.

 

[m.shah]

eng on top

 

[Major]

Should have sent nawaz or Shadab to up the ante. Run a ball in 8th not looking good. Both Shan n Babar are grafters so no boundaries for next few overs likely.

nope.

Strike rotation is key, SHan will do his job here

 

[Kianig89]

Only set batsman can hit remember this

 

[Sunzi]

I don’t want to be negative like the guys in the Pavilion

But I feel RizBab fans will go after everyone besides those two if Pakistan end up with a below par score

Nah, they've caused this with the docile start

 

[MHN1293]

Well here's hoping we get 160. Down the drain goes hopes of 180

 

[emranabbas]

recover what? we didnt do anything bad.

He just had to rotate strike, he went in and was trying to strike and was getting dots. Waste deliveries and got out

Rizwan is still a saint after doing absolutely nothing in the power play but yet harris is fault

 

[castortroy]

Game was over at the Toss

 

[JibranAnsari]

Pakistan batting is not equipped for this kind of pitch. England should win easily.

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

Target from this over: 9 runs

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

4444 by babar

 

[Ahmed216]

Need 9-10 an over from here

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

4 by Babar

 

[Major]

Babr batting well

 

[imshally81]

What a shot... 4 runs

 

[Kianig89]

King Babar

 

[ishtiaq_ctg]

Will 160 be a defendable score? Pakistan have the bowling and the pitch looks a bit two-paced.

 

[msb314]

444

 

[salman24]

Agreed. He should’ve been opening instead of selfish Babar.

He could hardly touch the ball on the beginning

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

Over 9: Get to 62

 

[boomboomcheema]

Babar so responsible..keep going well.

 

[Major]

Rizwan is still a saint after doing absolutely nothing in the power play but yet harris is fault

Openers batted well in PP. Babar got dot by playing drives, Harris got dots by missing shots

 

[Energy]

Babar is the man today. Rest need to keep hitting around him.

 

[Kianig89]

Ravi cheerleader

 

[zaidihusain]

What a stupid cricketer Harris is

Bhai only Harris's 8(12) is stupid, or Rizwan's 15(14) is also stupid?

 

[Champ_Pal]

Bad scoring rate. Someone needs to up the ante.

 

[DandyFellow]

Babar needs to stay till the end. All others need to play aggressively from now on. Pitch suits Babar.

 

[imshally81]

Good running again

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Jordan leaking runs

 

[Rana]

Very stylish 2 there Shanny

 

[JibranAnsari]

50 in next 6 and 50 in last 5.

 

[Major]

See this is strike rotation that SHan Masood offers. Harris this is how you play at MCG

 

[Spitfire]

Not many lessons being learnt by Pakistan's batting unit after witnessing the England Vs India SF.

 

[msb314]

Get. 4 Shab

 

[Energy]

Excellent running!

 

[Kianig89]

Take it deep

 

[boomboomcheema]

Pakistan is going well. Don't bash Babar.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Bhai only Harris's 8(12) is stupid, or Rizwan's 15(14) is also stupid?

Haris huffed and puffed though.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Babar is looking good for 60(48)

 

[msb314]

Get a boundary Shan

 

[Kianig89]

Sound of Vuvuzela at the G

 

[srh]

Babar and Shan are doing good

 

[happydavy]

Think Pakistan with their bowling line up need 155+ to make a match of this and in all likelihood they should get there.

 

[ex-q-zit]

Openers batted well in PP. Babar got dot by playing drives, Harris got dots by missing shots

Do we get runs for playing dots for drives? A dot id a dot and puts pressure on incoming batsmen.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

100 more

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

Over 10 - Need to go for 11 - Get to 70 for 2 and reassess.

 

[Kianig89]

59/2 after 9

 

[pillionrider]

dont worry, i dont expect India to reach finals

You sound tense. Enjoy the match and have some confidence in your bowlers. It’s not often in your lifetime that you get to see Pakistan in a WC Final

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

Not many lessons being learnt by Pakistan's batting unit after witnessing the England Vs India SF.

Not an easy pitch to hit boundaries tbh

 

[Champ_Pal]

50 in next 6 and 50 in last 5.

150 will not be enough.

 

[Suleiman]

Gotta shoot for 160 still.

140-150 min

 

[Kianig89]

Tailor made for classic Pakistan 1-0

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Lots of doubles

 

[Major]

Good rotation of strike by Shaan again, tahts how you bat here

 

[PakFan2010]

Pakistan playing nicely. A few more overs like this and then it will be time to explode.

 

[Shafi]

1992 vibes not looking good.

Looks like you are eagerly waiting Pakistan to fail.

 

[10sion]

England will struggle to chase anything over 140

You cant be serious...

 

[Energy]

Iftikhar needs to come in after 4 5 over to spank sixes at the death. Pakistan doing well here not an easy wicket to bat.

 

[Sherazkhalid]

Not a bad over. Need to go along like this for few overs.

 

[Kianig89]

Shanbcan nullify Dily

 

[mrtaim3]

1-2 big overs will set the run rate but the score is good

 

[pillionrider]

You sound tense. Enjoy the match and have some confidence in your bowlers. It’s not often in your lifetime that you get to see Pakistan in a WC Final

It will also be a longer while before you see Afghanistan in a final either, for mega happiness

 

[Kianig89]

Babar Azam is the key

 

[Major]

You sound tense. Enjoy the match and have some confidence in your bowlers. It’s not often in your lifetime that you get to see Pakistan in a WC Final

Dont worry, we are not only in finals but also winning it inshallah

 

[ex-q-zit]

[DandyFellow]

Not many lessons being learnt by Pakistan's batting unit after witnessing the England Vs India SF.

Dimensions of that ground totally opposite to the final. Big square and short straighter boundaries in mcg. This ground does not suit England's batting as Adeliade did with short square boundaries.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Which bowler to target?

 

[boomboomcheema]

Reach 100 in 15 overs..and target 50-60 runs in last five. Losing wickets between 10-15 overs would kill the game in favor of England. Take it easy .

 

[Kianig89]

Babar needs to play deep anchor

 

[Fazzy321]

Lol how Is Rashid bowling well against us all of a sudden

 

[Major]

Good over for Pakistan.

Zabardast strike rotation

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

68-2 after 10.

 

[ex-q-zit]

[MENTION=135038]Major[/MENTION] [MENTION=139758]pillionrider[/MENTION] : Please can you stick to this match

 

[Kianig89]

68/2 after 10 not bad
