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

[RyanRyan10]

Rauf has a strike rate of 16 in this match

 

[Kianig89]

Messed up all today now stats paddling unloading Zampa will get a 5 fer just wait and watch, Australian WC campaign on right track now

 

[jnaveen1980]

Labu in death overs lol This is going to be comical

 

[Nikhil_cric]

I picked him & Mitch for my fantasy team specifically for today - trust me. Both openers and basically hoping a hundred runs opening stand in quick time - that much confidence I had in PAK pacers with new ball. Paid it with bonus dividends, have to say …

Yeah. Even I thought they'd do well. Marsh with his static feet will be troubled by good channel bowling . Not fast bowlers who can't hold a line and length and just offer pace to be whacked . Good selections

 

[JattMaula]

Excellent review!

 

[Devadwal]

Pakistan is truly back with regular wickets

 

[7sins]

Take stoinis wicket now

 

[Sunzi]

They played the song! Mickey will be happy.

 

[Unbiased-Fan]

Great comeback by Pakistan.. Their fans won't believe but anything less than 400 can be chased in the tiny ground.
They have to trust themselves.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Pakistan is truly back with regular wickets

Game was over when they crossed 270

 

[Technics 1210]

Pakistan will win this match. You heard it here first.

 

[lazy cricketer]

they gonna say ground was small wicket was a road and still rauf took 2 3 wickets... they wont drop him

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Difficult to keep going hard with new batters. Not easy to do that. You need time on the pitch.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Great comeback by Pakistan.. Their fans don't believe but anything less than 400 can be chased in the tiny ground.
They have to believe themselves.

You can't believe when you know you aren't capable

 

[Firebat]

10 slices of red velvet for Cummins if he sends Labuschagne in next

Poor from Cummins sending Labu so late, no red velvet for him.

 

[7sins]

Top over by Rauf bring in Shaheen babar what are you doing

 

[oatmeal]

Good over by Rauf.

 

[Sunzi]

Top bantz from Ramiz.

 

[Technics 1210]

Where are the "know it all" Pakistan haters who said Australia will score 450, and even 500, with England's 498 record under threat today?

Oh how they have fallen silent.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Australia shouldn't worry about wickets. They have to keep going.

 

[oatmeal]

Australia need to target 380 minimum

 

[sweep_shot]

Pakistan are pulling things back a bit.

340/5 (45.1 overs).

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Australia struggling . Someone like Chapman will do well here. Stoinis wil try to muscle everything .

 

[jnaveen1980]

Stoinis 15 (18)

 

[cricket.mad]

Some UK Pakistanis present in my stand ...

 

[oatmeal]

Batting on this wicket doesnt seem to be easy when you arent settled

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Where are the "know it all" Pakistan haters who said Australia will score 450, and even 500, with England's 498 record under threat today?

Oh how they have fallen silent.

Yes this team has really silenced people

 

[shah_1]

Why didn't the captain bring in Starc? He can spank a few. Poor captaincy from Australia

 

[Sunzi]

Where are the "know it all" Pakistan haters who said Australia will score 450, and even 500, with England's 498 record under threat today?

Oh how they have fallen silsilent

Bro 340 with 5 to go is pretty significant, and likely too much already anyway.

 

[Asif321]

Good come back

 

[Devadwal]

Stoinis 15(18)* labuschange 1(3)*

Australia is rubbish team but Pakistan make them like they are great team .

Their batting is not great when they have Smith and labuchange at 3 and 4 .

 

[jnaveen1980]

Labu in death is such a misfit . Both Smith and Labu cannot play together. That is a strict no no. You cannot slot them

 

[MMHS]

Poor from Cummins sending Labu so late, no red velvet for him.

Not Labus fault - muscleman Stoinis isn’t plucking trees either. The reason is - it’s not a wicket that good for 200/0 at 7+ and, PAK pacers are good with old ball

 

[Nasty Naz]

Where are the "know it all" Pakistan haters who said Australia will score 450, and even 500, with England's 498 record under threat today?

Oh how they have fallen silent.

Oooh Pakistan might limit them to under 400. What an achievement.

Maybe the boys can cut another cake for such a remarkable feat.

 

[Technics 1210]

Yes this team has really silenced people

You didn't answer the question.

And yes, this team will silence the haters after beating Australia.

 

[Sunzi]

Some UK Pakistanis present in my stand ...

Wonder how they got visas. Genuinely.

 

[RamLakhan]

Match is already out of Pakistan's reach! Thing to worry is about how much NRR you can get (Australia is the one who is worried about that), Pakistan is hoping for more upsets to England & South Africa and they have already forgotten about this match...

 

[jnaveen1980]

Stoinis 15(18)* labuschange 1(3)*

Australia is rubbish team but Pakistan make them like they are great team .

Their batting is not great whem they have Smith and labuchange at 3 and 4 .

Smith, Labu these guys are not versatile like Kohli who can be dangerous even in death overs

 

[DandyFellow]

Anything above 350 will be costly.

 

[Syed1]

Haris Rauf another one that got hyped to the moon. I'd give you this, this team has amazing PR. Nothing cricketers are getting hyped as if they are the next best thing

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Not Labus fault - muscleman Stoinis isn’t plucking trees either. The reason is - it’s not a wicket that good for 200/0 at 7+ and, PAK pacers are good with old ball

This muscle man is a big fraud - picked for his bowling. Doesn't have the skill to bat on these wickets against half decent bowling.

 

[Technics 1210]

Oooh Pakistan might limit them to under 400. What an achievement.

Maybe the boys can cut another cake for such a remarkrable feat.

Oh please, you are the ones who come out with Indian wickets are flat, expect 350 to 400 scores, and when 400 is on the cards, you blame Pakistan, and not the wickets.

When your hate is consistent, then so too will your logic.

 

[cricket.mad]

Wonder how they got visas. Genuinely.

No idea
They told they are from Manchester

 

[nish_mate]

No dive by Shadab??

 

[RiyazAsim]

Pakistan will win this match. You heard it here first.

Yes, They have world's best wicket keeper batsman Rizwan who chased 350 , And goat batsman King Babar Azam they surely gonna win it , Babar gonna make today 150 ,You heart it here first.

Going to be this worldcup's best inning

 

[cricket.mad]

And they were praising climate of my city, which is finest among all major cities of India

 

[RyanRyan10]

Good comeback from Pakistan in the death overs. Just like they did against Sri Lanka.

 

[Technics 1210]

Bro 340 with 5 to go is pretty significant, and likely too much already anyway.

Was not the point. Where are the so called fans saying 450 to 500 was on the cards? Said fans cannot give credit to Pakistan for halting the carnage, and that too after so many dropped catches!

 

[oatmeal]

Wonder how they got visas. Genuinely.

They must have applied a long time ago. e-visas arent allowed for people who have Pakistani ancestry

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Stoinis can easily get them to 400.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Marnus should bat till the end.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Salivating over his bowling. Even Labu thrashed him on the up

 

[globetrotter]

Whenrameez said 80% chance of Pakistan win, there is explosion of laugh in commentary box

 

[imshally81]

Rauf Continues with his humble pies

 

[oatmeal]

Pakistan win confirmed

 

[Mockingbird]

Ramiz - “Forget about everything, 150 pace at this stage is really refreshing”

 

[DandyFellow]

Whilst it seems like a good comeback but game is already out of reach. 10-20 runs extra are enough for extra pressure in chase and 350 is the max number they could have chased.

 

[RyanRyan10]

Stoinis can easily get them to 400.

He has scored run a ball 20

 

[Sunzi]

No idea
They told they are from Manchester

That's pretty cool.

My sister is married to a British Indian and she has not been able to get a visa to visit her in-laws in Kerala.

 

[King_Babar]

Pakistan is out of this WC, should focus on next one.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Pakistan's biggest scalp in this match is Maxwell. That will be the differenec between 380 and 425

 

[Nasty Naz]

Oh please, you are the ones who come out with Indian wickets are flat, expect 350 to 400 scores, and when 400 is on the cards, you blame Pakistan, and not the wickets.

When your hate is consistent, then so too will your logic.

Feel free to look through my posts, I have never said that.

It's not the wicket, this is simply one of the worst bowling attacks in this WC. Can't take wickets in the PP, spinners don't take any wickets, only chance they ever have is during death.

 

[oatmeal]

Whenrameez said 80% chance of Pakistan win, there is explosion of laugh in commentary box

it was a joke reply to that state about 80% win percentage when Rauf takes 3 wickets

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Muskle man Stoinis misses again.

 

[Devadwal]

Anything from 370 is bonus for Australia

 

[Firebolt007]

151kph

 

[hass]

Where are the "know it all" Pakistan haters who said Australia will score 450, and even 500, with England's 498 record under threat today?

Oh how they have fallen silent.

Come on man this ain't the time. They are getting BATTERED out there. Not a time to compete on who was more right about how badly we're getting slaughtered.

Pakistan will have to bowl the death overs beautifully and bat out of their skins for any critics to take a hit.

 

[Ahmed216]

T20 mode ON and Rauf looks like a bowler. Proper Tapia

 

[Asif321]

Unless you aren’t settle you can’t strike that easily .

 

[Technics 1210]

Feel free to look through my posts, I have never said that.

It's not the wicket, this is simply one of the worst bowling attacks in this WC. Can't take wickets in the PP, spinners don't take any wickets, only chance they ever have is during death.

Yes because the dropped catches did not make a difference in the PP at all.

 

[Devadwal]

This is why Kohli is best in the world . He can Play at any stage

 

[kron]

Good comeback but too late

 

[Sunzi]

Rauf is back everybody.

 

[jnaveen1980]

You need a bit of time before getting used to on this pitch

 

[emranabbas]

Good news is afridi is back in rythem

 

[Rana]

Below 380 and Pakistan have a half chance

 

[RyanRyan10]

Pathetic innings from a pathetic player Stoinis

 

[imshally81]

Out

 

[Devadwal]

Haha stoinis misery comes to end

 

[jnaveen1980]

Almost all new batsmen struggled here.

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

How OZ are batting now is how Pak will bat
