ICC World Cup 2023: Australia v Pakistan | Match 18 | Bengaluru | 20 October | Australia Innings

[jnaveen1980]

wow Hit the roof.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Between Rauf and Ifti, PAK have conceded 68 runs in 5 overs. If PAK lose, that's to blame. And the dropped catch. Others were alright.

 

[Unbiased-Fan]

Usama doing good

Lol

 

[hitthestump]

Possible if Rauf keeps on bowling like this.

Rauf won’t be seen now until past the 30th over.

 

[Devadwal]

Another huge six by Marsh.

 

[Mamoon]

Guys how much more of this can you watch before turning tv off

Well I’m loving it.

 

[oatmeal]

That dropped catch was inexcusable. I thought it was a difficult chance but pure dolly.

 

[adi_62941]

Babar is hiding match winner

 

[Sherazkhalid]

450

Correction 475.

 

[gani999]

This is crazy batting. I don't know if Pakistan have been poor or Australia are warning everyone here.

Bit of both.
Everyone should be worried that Warner has finally found form.

 

[Rana]

I’m listening to Star Indian commentary

They are having a field day

 

[owenhcricket]

Is anyone speaking to mir?? He is bowling SO full on a pitch where he just showed that slightly back of a length will turn. Where are the ideas? Wheres the plan? ... as i type this ANOTHER massive six from a full delivery! Good God is no one giving him advice???

 

[asfandyar]

These blokes make it extremely difficult for jingoists like me.

 

[jnaveen1980]

13 overs 7 sixes. par for the course

 

[ex-q-zit]

Wondering what Maxi will do if and when he comes to bat. Remember he plays for RCB and knows this pitch like the back of his hand. At this rate SAs record of 438 couple of weeks will be threatened.

 

[Cover Drive Six]

This is a typical Bangalore pitch, a nightmare for bowlers. This is one reason why RCB has never won an IPL title.

 

[AAli98]

Had Pak batted 1st they would have been 50/2 by now poking & prodding trying to work out the surface.

 

[Devadwal]

AUS 128/0 ( 15 over)
What a phainti for Pakistani bowlers

 

[chinaman00]

This is going to be an absolute massacre. 128-0 from 15 overs.

 

[IamIndian]

Indian Trundlers >>>> 150 kmph bowlers!

 

[Cric_lover4487]

Where is Nawaz?

 

[kron]

I felt chacha was chucking at 9.5.his flatter delivery towards offstump looked like a throw.am I correct or assuming?

He is chucking aa much as bunrah is.

 

[160KPH]

Well I’m loving it.

Loving when your team loses is also loser mentality

 

[Unbiased-Fan]

This drink brake can bring fortunes for Pakistan.. Much needed break for them

 

[adi_62941]

So some of these people will get 45lacs per month salary only. Incredible.

 

[Mamoon]

We deserve this humiliation.

 

[hitthestump]

Shaheen should never have been taken out of the attack. He is at his best with the new ball and was bowling well.

One wicket from him would have shaven 20-30 runs off the score but alas Usama couldn’t swallow an absolute dolly.

 

[Sidilicious]

So far there have only been 3 overs in this innings, without a boundary.

2 from Afridi, 1 from Hassan Ali.

Thats shocking bowling.

 

[shah_1]

Australia team will be dangerous in the knock out. If travis head is fully fit and remove Stonis, this team can challenge India.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Love him or hate him. Yuzi Chahal was a master crafter on this pitch. He had great pace variations.

 

[kron]

AUS 128/0 ( 15 over)
What a phainti for Pakistani bowlers

Dint bumrah get tonked in this type of pitch vs Aussies in 3rd odi prior to WC?

 

[jattafridi]

Omg 460 possible

Pakistan 260 ao

Famous victory is coming for Australia

 

[Shafi]

Zimbabwe or WI would have better than us in this World Cup

 

[imshally81]

We deserve this humiliation.

Why?

 

[kron]

Love him or hate him. Yuzi Chahal was a master crafter on this pitch. He had great pace variations.

He is mediocre

 

[Ash123]

Dint bumrah get tonked in this type of pitch vs Aussies in 3rd odi prior to WC?

India is not playing today.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Only advantage for PAK is that 30 degrees in Blore is 30 degrees. Very little humidity. So boys won't be too exhausted for the 2nd innings. Will get cooler now too.

 

[Sunzi]

We are wack.

 

[Aseem_Khan]

Pakistan finally awakened beast Australia now these Aussie will be nightmare for other sides.

 

[jnaveen1980]

He is mediocre

He has tamed so many beasts in IPL on this ground.

 

[YousafTheBeast]

Shadab Khan is probably eating a cake in the corner

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Just tuned in, Namaskara to all PP's - in kannada
Aus going on turbo max....that shot from DW that hit the roof was diamond crazy and now MM has 'spotted' the roof as well.

Must say i like Rauf, saw his story - the whole gate thing and everything, he has raw pace but is just a right handed Wahib Riaz. somehow if this guy develops a slower one, gets late or reverse, he could be lethal - this is where pak legends like Wasim, waqar shoiab etc shold step in.
also knowing Bangalore ground, it ai'nt over till its over, i'm willing to wager more games were won by sides chasing then defending, if i was pak - i try bowling to one side of the wicket field like absolute platinum maniacs- restrict the damage and then chase down whaterver is in front.

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

Can we get one wicket today? I doubt it

 

[mominsaigol]

Will Australia get 500 today

 

[rpant_gabba]

ICC should investigate this game

 

[castortroy]

Lol bowling chacha again

 

[Devadwal]

Dint bumrah get tonked in this type of pitch vs Aussies in 3rd odi prior to WC?

Dont compare bumrah with your garbage bowlers

 

[Shafi]

We deserve this humiliation.

Same dialogue over and over!!! Support better teams like Ind/Aus/Eng

 

[adi_62941]

We deserve this humiliation.

Only you

 

[Unbiased-Fan]

Dint bumrah get tonked in this type of pitch vs Aussies in 3rd odi prior to WC?

he made a strong comebcak in last 5 overs thouh.

 

[AAli98]

Should have put this team out of there misery after there batting effort v Dutch knew they weren’t up to the challenge.

 

[160KPH]

Dint bumrah get tonked in this type of pitch vs Aussies in 3rd odi prior to WC?

Yeah Bumrah bowled at economy of 8 why they had to switch to a slow pitch for their match in the WC

 

[saqib.rai]

Its unfair to us that we are playing Australia on this pitch and will play Afghanistan on the Chennai pitch

Was valid objection which Management raised to ICC but got no support even from own fans and media

Now what's the point of crying?

 

[Shafi]

again Ifti!!!

 

[Sherazkhalid]

wow, all three projected scores over 400, wow just wow

 

[IAJ]

Rubbish display by Pakistan. We need a Mega collapse here to have any chance.

But seems like we keep playing on wrong grounds. Should have played against AFG here and Aus in Chennai.

 

[IamIndian]

A few cricketing careers will come to an end today

 

[Smbhayi]

Lol all predicted score is above 400..

 

[Ahmed216]

400 is ON

 

[adi_62941]

Its unfair to us that we are playing Australia on this pitch and will play Afghanistan on the Chennai pitch

Was valid objection which Management raised to ICC but got no support even from own fans and media

Now what's the point of crying?

You cannot keep all cards in your pocket

 

[castortroy]

Think we are going to get a world record score here

 

[Sherazkhalid]

again Ifti!!!

some need to cover Rauf overs.

 

[batandballbattle]

at this rate hasan and shaheen will have to come back early

 

[Hitman]

We deserve this humiliation.

But why?

 

[Sherazkhalid]

they are playing like it's a video game.

 

[Devadwal]

Wow what a timing .just a push and go for four

 

[Unbiased-Fan]

Rizwan
Even Marsh was surprised by his Ayyyeeeee

 

[hur rizvi]

Why is iftikhar bowling now, Why not nawaz??

No sense whatsoever

 

[jnaveen1980]

Marsh is defending means . He wants to play long.

 

[Shafi]

Just get at least 1 wicket!!!!

 

[topspin]

For the first time in a while I’m watching Pakistan play and I’m feeling genuinely frustrated.

What a stupid drop from Usama.

What brainless bowling from Rauf.

I might have to switch off…

I told you last year when your head was in the clouds that this would all backfire spectacularly. I still haven't forgotten you telling everyone who disagreed with your view "it's like teaching calculus to a 5 year old".

If only you had realised that Pakistan didn't warrant a place in the WT20 final last year this wouldn't hurt so much. We played horrible cricket for half of the tournament because Pakistan are an awful white ball cricket team.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Why is iftikhar bowling now, Why not nawaz??

No sense whatsoever

Left hander match up i think

 

[Devadwal]

Pakistan is not thinking about wickets

 

[Hitman]

Are the excuses out yet already?

 

[batandballbattle]

Why is iftikhar bowling now, Why not nawaz??

No sense whatsoever

nawaz will be launched just the same
we are completely broken out there

 

[Mamoon]

So how long before we start calculating how we can fluke our way into the semis?

If A loses to B and C loses to D and X vs Y is washed out but India deliberately lost to F to eliminate us because they don’t want to face us in the knockouts.

 

[YousafTheBeast]

Pakistan will be 80-2 at this stage.

 

[160KPH]

Dont compare bumrah with your garbage bowlers

Even Hasan Ali has more ICC trophies than Bumrah lol

 

[Rana]

Pakistan opted to bowl first knowing full well that the score can easily breach 350+

 

[7sins]

Just woke up to this disaster
