ICC World Cup 2023: India v Pakistan | Match 12 | Ahmedabad | 14 October | Pakistan innings

[hitthestump]

Every Wicket so far was against run of play. Just when Pak is gaining momentum, there's a fall of wicket. Crucial wicket this.

This is what really hurts. When Pakistan were in a position to start punching we are forced to consolidate.

Another 20-30 runs shaved off the final score with that wicket.

 

[Azzurri]

Our main batsman is still there. Stay calm

 

[angrypathan]

Tbf I think Babar played the best he could have

Played close to what his numbers suggest his average output is, 50 something runs at a strike rate in the mid to high 80s

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Poor shot but ball kept low again

 

[Major]

poor running by saud, that could had been a run out. He was miles out

 

[Technics 1210]

Now we need a century from Rizwan, and a sajda at the Modi stadium!

 

[kron]

Hopefully this humbled you, he’s out.

This is only the beginning. Remember he is 26. Long career ahead. Kohli will be finished very soon.

 

[King_Babar]

Yes Yes yes !!!! What a ball

That was not a great ball by any means. Poor shot selection and nothing else.

 

[Nado_]

Every Wicket so far was against run of play. Just when Pak is gaining momentum, there's a fall of wicket. Crucial wicket this.

I know , it’s the timing of these wickets which will put a dent on the run rate . This is not a 300 pitch, Pakistan have got to this score playing risk free, when you’ve got India’s stroke players and our bowling it’s not looking good

 

[Rana]

Rizwan about to sell Saud down the river

Just like does with Pakistan’s fate more often than not

 

[angrypathan]

What was that???

 

[Omer2002]

I mean wth was he trying to do...we will never be world beaters with this mentality

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

he didnt even move ........ why

 

[boomboomcheema]

Pakistan panicking

 

[JattMaula]

Direct hit would have been so good!

 

[kron]

Bhaii. Shakeel kya itna short hai lol?

I dint think he is so small.

 

[Ahmed216]

I must say Saud is very poor at running between wickets

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Very tame from Babar.

 

[cricenjoyer]

Zimbabar is gone after his personal milestone 50

@mods why does this guy get away with spamming nonsense consistently without any real analysis?

 

[vprasanna83]

What the hell did Saud do there

 

[hamzie]

What are we doing

 

[shah_1]

It was a nothing shot

 

[batandballbattle]

Complete nothing shot from babar, was looking good as well. No room to run it down on the top of off

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

Tha was stupid....... though it swung but really. lack of concentration.

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Finally a bit of luck going our way....that was a nothing from BA....


geez.....Siraj misses a sitting duck run out..why cant luck make up its mind and give some more to india!!!????

 

[ChTab]

Babar missed a straight one

 

[Ahmed216]

Bhaii. Shakeel kya itna short hai lol?

I dint think he is so small.

He's very short

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Good over by Miya bhai

 

[hitthestump]

So much pressure on Rizwan to score yet another 100.

If he does it again he is quite possibly superman.

 

[vprasanna83]

That was not a great ball by any means. Poor shot selection and nothing else.

Darted back in . So far there has been no movement

 

[Hitman]

This is only the beginning. Remember he is 26. Long career ahead. Kohli will be finished very soon.

He is 28, not 26.

 

[Major]

Saud Shakeel looks nervous

 

[VForVendetta]

Babar as usual getting his furniture knocked out by a seamer. Just getting beaten by pace & length, which is kind of shambolic considering the nature of the wicket. Sadly the man just doesn't have it in him to be ruthless & go hard & big at the top teams. He is incapable of completely shutting the opposition.

 

[globetrotter]

Babar bowled by siraj whose struggling with line and. Length today

 

[castortroy]

Pak will be all out 250 here

 

[hitthestump]

Saud looking extremely nervous. Take your time son. There’s plenty of balls left.

 

[Rana]

I must say Saud is very poor at running between wickets

Rizwan called him through

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

I hope saud plays well till 40 over at least.

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

Let's see what this Saud can do.

Still not fully convinced with him

 

[mominsaigol]

Rizwan about to sell Saud down the river

Just like does with Pakistan’s fate more often than not

Saud ran that bro, I'm watching the same game as you, Saud called it.

Although I don't get why he called it, Its the runners the job to call

 

[Rana]

Saud looking extremely nervous. Take your time son. There’s plenty of balls left.

Yeah only 20 overs left on a road

 

[boomboomcheema]

Now Pakistan will play cautious Cricket for another ten overs.

 

[Major]

Kuldeep bowling really well. While we three w our wickets to nothing deliveires, Yadav is someone that actually bowled well today.

 

[DandyFellow]

If our spinners were good as well then game was on. This is a good pitch for spinners.

 

[Saj]

Too many dots.

No urgency at all from Rizwan.

 

[kron]

He is 28, not 26.

Still young.

 

[Abhilash93]

Rizwan waiting for the pacers to come on.

 

[TheSultan]

That was soft by babar - very soft

 

[Ahmed216]

Really not enough firepower in our side

 

[kron]

Too many dots.

No urgency at all from Rizwan.

It's also good bowling though. Can't just blindly attack.

 

[Unbiased-Fan]

Superb pressure buildup over by Kuldeep

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

I hope saud attacks.

 

[rhony]

Kuldeep gave away atleast two boundaries while fielding but it's been a phenomenal spell so far. Great variation in pace

 

[AAli98]

If you ain’t got the ability to hit a spinner for 6 they will walk all over you.

 

[castortroy]

If our spinners were good as well then game was on. This is a good pitch for spinners.

Pak spinner are dreadful.

Big difference between the 2 bowling line ups.

Even if pak bat well here to the end they are not getting more than 280 which Indians will absolutely breeze

 

[mrtaim3]

Two soft wickets. Poor from Pakistan. This is a flat deck

 

[castortroy]

Still not a single 6 hit.

Seems like I'm watching an innings for 90s

 

[Omer2002]

India will chase anything so.obviously no pressure. Clearly favourites to win this

 

[shah_1]

India are pretty comfortable

Too good for Pakistan

 

[aukhan]

Babar impactless player.

 

[DJhant]

One more wicket in next couple of overs, India will be in a 50-50 position

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

An inngs with 0 sixes coming up?

 

[mominsaigol]

I'm worried about bowling.

If India wins, it'll be because kuldeep made all the difference. Sheddy miracle is needed

 

[Major]

get to 210 by 40th over, and than attack the last 10 overs with ifti

 

[Rana]

Babar mentally went into a shell as soon as Kuldeep was brought back into the attack

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

Pakistan looking to get a measly 250-270 score

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

The worst crowd I have EVER seen across ALL spor

Now we need a century from Rizwan, and a sajda at the Modi stadium!

am commenting on the second part of your comment....who cares, he can do his sajda anywhere -
just that the name of the stadium and the sajda happening there kinda flicks ur switch and floats ur boat...Wow...

 

[castortroy]

India are pretty comfortable

Too good for Pakistan

That's the thing.

They are too good for Pak and practically unbeatable on these Indian tracks

 

[GLORY OF '92]

150 more minimum reqd

 

[Marooned]

Pak spinner are dreadful.

Big difference between the 2 bowling line ups.

Even if pak bat well here to the end they are not getting more than 280 which Indians will absolutely breeze

Nothing special in their spin bowling tbh. We just batted like kittens.

 

[Mamoon]

Babar vs India:

“He cannot play them”

Shaheen vs India now:

“They cannot wait to play him”

Nasser Hussain

 

[Abhilash93]

Time to get a couple of overs from Bumrah.

 

[mikeypbadana86]

290 is tought to chase is what sunil gavaskar saying in a worrying tone. The ball is keeping low and its two paced. You guys have a great chance if shaheen comes/hasan ali comes to the party/

 

[Rana]

Siraj is 100% reversing it

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

An inngs with 0 sixes coming up?

wait for last ten ...... relax

 

[Rana]

Got a wierd feeling Saud will Nick off

 

[Marooned]

Wickets will come thick and fast now

Pakistan are under pressure with slow batting on a road.

 

[Rana]

Bowl out your spinners before Chacha comes to bat Rohit!

 

[rhony]

290 is tought to chase is what sunil gavaskar saying in a worrying tone. The ball is keeping low and its two paced. You guys have a great chance if shaheen comes/hasan ali comes to the party/

Gavaskar is a dinosaur. NZ batters smoked England on the same pitch batting second. As long as India doesn't lose wickets in the first few overs, it won't be tough to chase. Ball will nicely skid.

 

[Major]

Saud looks a bit edgy here. Needs to get a 4 get the crowd shut
