Although i am not from Banglore, i have seen enough big chases here. Pitch is a belter, ground is not the biggest. Its all about maximizing your oppurtunities and putting pressure on the opposition
 
Beyond embarrassment it is, a new low achieved by Pakistan team that too in familiar conditions , a subcontinent WC but our limitations are evident to whole world, massive rebuilding required radical changes and a paradigm shift, hopefully somebody at the helm of affairs is sensing the gravity of situation
 
Simon doull is absolutely right
We only played 36 ODI in last 4 years

How were we supposed to prepare for this WC?

Blame goes to PCB for scheduling more t20s with other boards and not ODIs

And fans want Babar to be accountable for PCB shortcomings???

First part of your statement is correct.

But Babar selected a horrible squad filled with his friends and backed it with horrendous captaincy.
 
1.1 crore viewership on hotstar. Could be viewership record for non Indian match or non-final.
 
Wasim strikes.

Beacon. Bish said it. He is a good bowler. Has thus far avoided massacre amongst the carnage in all games.

Wait it will become mine field when Pakistan bat
 
388 after 49. Will just about crip to 400 if they get there at all. Poor finishing from such a dominant position
 
Kiwis go in to the match with 2 specialist spinners (maybe forced to coz of injuries) and we play 4 phaast bowlers 😅
 
The bad news for Pakistan is ENG too seem to be coming into their groove. Which means they cannot take ENG lightly.
 
This will be another embarrassing defeat, even the most stupidest person in the world knows to bat first!

Pakistan has been batted out of the game. Pakistan has already lost without a single ball being bowled. By the 10th over, the required run rate will easily be north of 15 runs.

Highly plausible Pakistan might be bundled out for sub-200 score.

This was a virtual elimination for both teams and we are witnessing an epic demolish. Pakistan has been given a spanking a generation will remember for the rest of their lives.
 
They were never good enough. It was an illusion.

Shaheen is the only good bowler but he too is not without his problems.

Rauf, Naseem and Wasim Jr. won’t sit on India’s bench.
With current bowling like up even Waqar won't sit on India's bench. Both Shami, Shiraj and bumrah looks level up than Wasim
 
if it rains and becomes a 20 over match, what should the target be
 
This WC has been a true reflection of Babar and Pakistan's ability against full strength teams.
 
We’ll bowl Wasim - only silver lining in a forgettable WC campaign.

Now, the next big task is to give him a feeling that instead of improving his bowling, he should focus on his batting to ensure that “all-rounder” spot.
 
Can’t tell anymore if this irl or someone’s high score on stick cricket.
 
Aus tour will be a final nail in the coffin of lumber 1 propaganda. Cant see Shaheen, Rauf play 5 days test matches.
 
Shaheen bowling 120kph full tosses. This is beyond embarassing.
We lost another pacer to injury
 
30 runs more than what I would have been comfortable of.

But still Pakistan has good chance.
 
I just saw Sodhi is playing. Lol. He's going to wreak havoc with these timid batsmen. 5 wickets or less should be a disgrace for Sodhi
 
Embarrassing performance by Shaheen Afridi. May God. This guy did not come to play today. He literally gave up after the 1st over. His body language and attitude totally off.

Big players show up when the chips are down. Babar and Shaheen disappears
 
Actually chasing 400 is not a big issue at Chinnaswamy. 200+ scores have usually been chased here in IPL. But the question is does Pakistan have the confidence.

But can they do it in 35?

What confidence? Babar will definitely play for his average, his body language clearly shows the team is gone.
 
Its not T20 neither UAE to put opposition in.. Inferior teams lose 75% of winning chance if they field first!

Also the talent and capability. Babar will happy run a ball fifty.
 
Don't think we'll even try for win. We will play safety first and set target 250-300.
