ICC T20 World Cup 2022 | Pakistan v South Africa | Group 2 | SCG | 03 November | Pakistan innings

[RexRex]

Shadab on a roll ...

 

[Smbhayi]

Beamer and six by Shadab..

 

[Amjid Javed]

Good comeback with bat here after woeful and shambolic start.

 

[Major]

Saffers dropping catches other loving this and the indian crying

 

[Rana]

Shadab 50 off 20!!

 

[Smbhayi]

Free hit also gone for six.. what a fifty by him

 

[emranabbas]

Weldone shadab

 

[gani999]

Can't believe India struggled against SA lol

They played in Perth not Sydney.

 

[saabir]

Iftikhar is probably one of the biggest hitter going around. He hit huge sixes. Enjoyed his batting against India and today also. Shadab is probably the best all-rounder these days along with Hardik Pandya. Shakib is decling

 

[Msd_7]

This is out of SA zone with the absence of Miller, excellent batting from Shadab

 

[Kianig89]

Back to Afridi era

 

[JibranAnsari]

looks like the match wont finish.

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

That's incredible stuff from both. Amazing hitting

 

[Smbhayi]

Lol dropped by markram.

 

[RexRex]

SA are obliging with a lot of full tosses ! It makes six hitting easy.

 

[JibranAnsari]

what a knock by shadab.

 

[Rana]

What an innings by Shadab

This is the Pakistan I want to support!!!

 

[emranabbas]

Play stopped I think

 

[Devadwal]

Great innings come to end

 

[Major]

Lovely batting by shadab khan. Well played innings.

Where are his haters

 

[Energy]

Unbelievable performance by the batters now. I had stopped watching at 40/4 but am shocked at this fightback. Good stuff lads.

In hindsight, if Pakistan beat South Africa and still get knocked out, it will be a similar performance to 2019 ODI WC where they were on equal points with NZ but had a poor NRR.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Well batted Shadab and ifti here.

 

[hamzie]

how did india struggle against SA lmao
flukers lucky to make semis if they do

 

[Smbhayi]

[MENTION=135038]Major[/MENTION] the game playing through the rain(slight drizzle).. why game is not stopped?

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

Shadab did well, Should promote Rauf, Wasim is poor and can cost 15 runs deficit.

 

[JibranAnsari]

this is great hitting but font forget its the very wet ball and the bowlers have hard time gripping it.

 

[Mamoon]

Let’s not forget that South Africa is not full-strength today. They rested Miller, and it remains to be seen if the most overrated and mentally weak bowling unit can take advantage of that on what is the best batting surface in the tournament.

 

[Major]

They played in Perth not Sydney.

Ok so that is the excuse. Sa was also playing on same pitch....

 

[emranabbas]

Give out middle order a good start and they will fire

 

[Blackbradman]

Where are so many Indians coming from and crying about pitch )

and yesterday you are crying non-stop like a 5 year old...lol at you..

 

[Devadwal]

how did india struggle against SA lmao
flukers lucky to make semis if they do

Do Pakistan fans even know about cricketing condition? I don't think so

 

[RexRex]

Okay .. old pakistan is back.

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

[MENTION=135038]Major[/MENTION] the game playing through the rain..

It's not raining yet and game has not been stopped. Lets see if the game is stopped and how much time they will take to get ground ready to play.

 

[JibranAnsari]

last over. Good thing iftikhar is facing. Should not take a single.

 

[emranabbas]

Wth was that muhammed waseem

 

[Asif321]

Terrific from ifti and shaddy

Pakistan not losing this surely

 

[Major]

Let’s not forget that South Africa is not full-strength today. They rested Miller, and it remains to be seen if the most overrated and mentally weak bowling unit can take advantage of that on what is the best batting surface in the tournament.

Bro, sa is playing its main bowlers.

So you have already come up with an excuse in case Pakistan wins.

Why not burn the flag if you hate the country that much

 

[Mamoon]

Pakistan played South Africa (the most hostile pace unit in the tournament) on the most docile pitch in the tournament. Must be an ICC conspiracy to hurt Pakistan.

They made India play them on the quickest pitch which was also an ICC conspiracy.

 

[RexRex]

What a catch, wah.

 

[90MPH]

Why are so many people talking about the pitch ?

Pak were 45/4. It wasn’t a patta then ?

 

[Smbhayi]

Those two full tosses were due to rain.. game should have been stopped before that [MENTION=135038]Major[/MENTION]

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

Let’s not forget that South Africa is not full-strength today. They rested Miller, and it remains to be seen if the most overrated and mentally weak bowling unit can take advantage of that on what is the best batting surface in the tournament.

You are right, Miller would have at least taken fifer here.

 

[JibranAnsari]

how long is the straight boundary.

 

[Smbhayi]

Super catch that is, ifthikar gone..

 

[Major]

how long is the straight boundary.

I think its 70 plus not sure

 

[ex-q-zit]

Note : This thread is to discuss about the match. Please can you refrain from making it BCCI or PCB. There are other threads for that

 

[JibranAnsari]

come on 10 more.

 

[JibranAnsari]

i think there will be only 5 overs of Sa innings.

 

[Msd_7]

Pakistan is already 7 runs ahead of winning score

 

[RexRex]

Pakistan zindabad.

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

Maybe Pakistan would have been better off persuading umpires in taking rain break at 18.4. More resources left, less wickets down. Par score would have been higher.

 

[hamzie]

hope india are watching how its done

 

[SamNJ]

If it was raining like this and it was India game, forum would be in meltdown.

 

[JibranAnsari]

haha most number of dropped catches in 12 balls

 

[Smbhayi]

Haha another drop, SA already starts to choke..

 

[Rana]

Comedy fielding by SA

 

[Rana]

Pakistan will win this by 40 runs

 

[Smbhayi]

Hahaha lolololoo. What a comedy offielding..

 

[emranabbas]

Always comedy in pakistan matches

 

[Major]

Thats how its done.

Keep crying about the pitch

 

[Smbhayi]

Bevuma is a gun fielder though..

 

[Local.Dada]

Terrible playing conditions. I can see rain through tv which means it’s pretty heavy. Dangerous conditions for fielding

 

[F16]

PAK is winning this match

 

[Asif321]

Thankfully rizwan and babar left early

 

[JibranAnsari]

SA will get it in 15 overs if the ball is this wet.

 

[ravisurya]

Saffers dropping catches other loving this and the indian crying

Lol why will Indian be crying. Ironic coming from the whiner.

 

[Hextro]

Terrible playing conditions. I can see rain through tv which means it’s pretty heavy. Dangerous conditions for fielding

Worried about the conditions now? Should've kept that same energy yesterday.

 

[IAJ]

Let’s not forget that South Africa is not full-strength today. They rested Miller, and it remains to be seen if the most overrated and mentally weak bowling unit can take advantage of that on what is the best batting surface in the tournament.

Lol, match khatan nahi hua and excuses ready hain. Cricket is a team-game, there will always be some players missing.

 

[Local.Dada]

Ned will upset SA. I think will be Ind-Pak final again. Otherwise no reason for teams to play through heavy rain.

Now watch SA struggle to time the wet ball

 

[Local.Dada]

Worried about the conditions now? Should've kept that same energy yesterday.

Do you understand sarcasm or is it an alien concept?

 

[Front Foot Pull]

and some geniuses gave verdict yesterday that a wet ball favours fielding side)

 

[Savak]

If someone told me Pakistan would score 185 batting first against SA in a T20 in Sydney, I would have taken it in a heartbeat.

The Pakistani batting line up has over achieved considering the Australian conditions and South African blowing attack. Its up to the bowlers now.

 

[Major]

Lol, match khatan nahi hua and excuses ready hain. Cricket is a team-game, there will always be some players missing.

Pakistan was without fakhar. But nahi jeep, haters of Pakistan want to make excuses

 

[castortroy]

Performing in a meaningless game

 

[dildilpak]

Bizarre pay from SA in the last 10 overs. So many full tosses and catch drops. I know it was drizzling and the ball became wet so hard to grip. But they only need to look at Indian bowlers and fielders yesterday to see how they handled it. But takes nothing away from Shadab, Ifti and Nawaz. Just good, clean hitting. Shows what an uncluttered mind can do.

 

[Smbhayi]

Worried about the conditions now? Should've kept that same energy yesterday.

Just returning the favour..

 

[Local.Dada]

Pakistan was without fakhar. But nahi jeep, haters of Pakistan want to make excuses

Sa resting their main team, rain conditions, flat pitch also sa taking foot of the gas. High quality knock by Shadab but the opposition played poor quality cricket like a practice game. I think the rain conditions threw them off too

[Mainul]

Just wao..

What a comeback!
Where were this Pakistan?

 

[Rana]

Finally some sixes for Pakistan fans to enjoy for once
