ICC World Cup 2023: Pakistan (345/4) complete the highest run-chase in World Cup history to defeat Sri Lanka (344/9) by 6 wickets

[10sion]

What amazing fielding .....man oh man Sri Lanka self combusting

 

[angrypathan]

Dropped twice in the same over

 

[sweep_shot]

Four.

51 are needed from 42 balls.

 

[Iamcoolwhiz]

Saud is desperately trying to get out

 

[amirm]

Three dropped catches in a over??

 

[mominsaigol]

babar is

babar is a garbage captain, we all agreee with taht

Yh, But naw genuinely speaking I was 100% wrong about rizzu. That's my bad. I won't critise the guy again.

But I still despise imam and babar( Not as a bat, never as a bat, but as a captain yes)

Rizzu genuinely surpassed sarfraz's SA and Ireland knock today.

Rizzu is > Prime sarfi as a bat atleast. Captain can't compare cause rizzu ain't a captain yet.

 

[Sherazkhalid]

not sure why they are giving catch practice to SL, guess they need it as they cannot hold onto those.

 

[Asif321]

Lankans been poor

 

[hitthestump]

This is a cakewalk now.

Not even Netherlands would screw this up.

 

[jattafridi]

Wow amazing fielding

Please more drop catches

 

[10sion]

I wish he could hear us.

He heard....

 

[sachin-10dulkar]

Dropped.. make SL pay for it. Finish the game in less than 4-5 overs

 

[msb314]

Cmon guys finish it now

 

[ArabKnight]

Lol - SL really helping us out here

They’re actually helping themselves. Saud is too slow even for Tests.

 

[shortbread]

Sensible batting please, just need a boundary an over with plenty of batters to come. No unnecessary risk!

 

[IAJ]

What on earth, could have been 3 cstches here

 

[Markhor]

SL fielding can be sloppy under pressure like PAK's.

Cannot forget Thisara Perera's costly drop in 2017 CT.

 

[Mankaded]

Don't know who wants to lose this more.

 

[Amjid Javed]

One more heavy scoring over needed to bring RRR down

 

[Galla]

@mominsaigol you talk about your predictions but i have mentioned quite a few times that rizwan is the best pakistani batter on current form in the team and he is proving it again.

 

[imshally81]

Finally a boundary

Lucky over for Pakistan

 

[10sion]

This is a cakewalk now.

Not even Netherlands would screw this up.

Bangladesh can. trust me, I know.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

They are just trying to score 7 an over. One good over before 45 and it will ease some pressure.

 

[rhony]

Panic everywhere. Poor shots and shoddy catching. Is Pak already thinking of NRR

 

[mominsaigol]

And about SL’s bowling attack

Fair. Although they did bowl well against India, ig that was once in a blue moon . Saud and Abdullah were correct cause it was free from bias lol.

Well back to the basics for me.

 

[sweep_shot]

SL used to have the best fielding unit in Asia (during the days of Sanga and Mahela).

These new guys seem less capable.

 

[Sherazkhalid]

Three dropped catches in a over??

I mean first was half a chance, second should have been taken and last one should be made to practice catching 100 catches.

 

[boomboomcheema]

Rizwan struggling adding no value with the bat now.

 

[Mp812]

SL dropping catches at will

 

[pakistanisgreat]

need 50 of 40

 

[shariqnoor]

Rizwan has been very poor since his injury.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

We should have much less than 40 runs to chase in last five.

 

[hitthestump]

Yh, But naw genuinely speaking I was 100% wrong about rizzu. That's my bad. I won't critise the guy again.

But I still despise imam and babar( Not as a bat, never as a bat, but as a captain yes)

Rizzu genuinely surpassed sarfraz's SA and Ireland knock today.

Rizzu is > Prime sarfi as a bat atleast. Captain can't compare cause rizzu ain't a captain yet.

That’s what makes you a good poster.

You have the ability to adapt and adjust based on new information.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

We got some luck in a 50 over WC finally

 

[ArabKnight]

Rizwan wants to stay not out. A 120* would do wonders to the batting average.

 

[mominsaigol]

@mominsaigol you talk about your predictions but i have mentioned quite a few times that rizwan is the best pakistani batter on current form in the team and he is proving it again.

I was correct about saud though.

But I was wrong here. I won't critise rizzu again XD. You were right I was wrong boss . Lesson learned.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Yes Rizzu!!!

 

[amvbfm]

This chase is so heartening. Yes, SLs bowling is weak but Pakistan has played extremely good and intelligent cricket. Absorbed the pressure after the first two wickets and played proper calculated cricket.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

6 thats my boy.

 

[Major]

RIZWAN HITS A SIX

 

[TheSultan]

Shot

 

[pakistanisgreat]

66666

 

[sweep_shot]

Six from Rizwan.

Pakistan are closing in.

 

[mominsaigol]

That’s what makes you a good poster.

Other posters are awful because they just get stuck in their ways despite constant evidence proving them wrong.

I mean I've been wrong and changed opinions before XD.

No shame in admitting you're wrong and improving XD.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Six for rizwan

 

[Major]

The thing is you cant predict Pakistan

 

[YousafTheBeast]

Bet you Shadab comes in ahead of Ifthikar.

 

[imshally81]

Rizwan struggling adding no value with the bat now.

What is the rule.. If he retire... Does he bat again?

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

Partnership nearing hundred, I hope they make it soon.

 

[jattafridi]

Wow 6 Rizwon my boy

 

[Galla]

I wish he could hear us.

lol he hit one

 

[Major]

they are searching for @Rana at the boundary there.

 

[sweep_shot]

300 is up.

5th 300+ scores in this WC already.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Rizwan wants to stay not out. A 120* would do wonders to the batting average.

Yes hes so selfish. Scoring a ton while we were down and out and wants to see us home. How wrong of him.

 

[Nasty Naz]

Considering the start and how it looked like Pakistan wouldn't be able to do this at all to making it look fairly comfortable is quite a pleasant surprise.

Epic innings from Abdullah and Rizwan.

 

[imshally81]

Six

3oo UP

 

[hitthestump]

RIZWAN HITS A SIX @Rana kitho ho rana jee

He is tweeting Mickey Arthur to say Khushdil should open in ODI’s as he “knows this game and knows these players”

 

[10sion]

Just need one big over >15 runs

The last over went for 11 runs. And 8 runs in 4 balls already in this over.

 

[cricenjoyer]

I mean I've been wrong and changed opinions before XD. But I ain't arrogant like other posters lol .

No shame in admitting you're wrong and improving XD.

Respect man respect

 

[pakistanisgreat]

300 up

 

[amirm]

43 from 38 balls

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

sensible cricket with scoring lot of runs and one boundary an over.

 

[pakistanisgreat]

almost run a ball now. Should be a straight forward chase.

 

[sweep_shot]

41 are needed from 37 balls.

Pakistan should try to win with 2-3 overs to spare.

 

[kingusama92]

The end of Sri Lanka's innings hurt them badly. They needed 370+.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Rizwan fan now he played a legendary innings

 

[Major]

Rizwan wants to stay not out. A 120* would do wonders to the batting average.

pathetic comment.

 

[Galla]

I also agree with this and a lot more people should learn this both on this forum and as well the normal people in pakistan.

 

[Sherazkhalid]

What is the rule.. If he retire... Does he bat again?

Yes he can.

 

[msb314]

Cmon boys finish it in 3-4 overs

 

[10sion]

39 needed from 36 with 7 wickets in hand. It will be an absolute thrilling match if Sri lanka can win from here.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

saud is like ...... rizwan you do it.

 

[Swashbuckler]

Going to be a great victory for Pakistan, a sort of victory which can inject momentum into the campaign. Good chance of Pak making the semi final because of today.

 

[Adi_62945]

Where is @Mamoon ? Always spreading negativity against abullah and rizwan

 

[Amjid Javed]

39 off 36 needed

 

[sweep_shot]

SL will probably finish at 7 or 8 (if they lose this). Can't see them beating India, NZ, Australia, and England.

 

[Sherazkhalid]

If we win this, our batting carried us, bowlers need to get their act straighten up as well.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Oh no. A twist in the tale

 

[mominsaigol]

This has to be one of the greatest world cup innings I've ever seen lol.

Cheeta innings fr.

 

[Syed1]

Almost brought it down to a run a ball
