[batandballbattle]

good decision to drop fakhar, can't keep giving the guy chances
shafique should get a long rope in this side

Russell Arnold and Waqar Younis in the commentary.

Shafique can be a good accumulator. He can also tone once he is set

 

[SpiritOf1903]

MAUKAAAA!!!!


ZINDABAD

GAME ON

Keep it there SSA

 

[kron]

Guys pitch looks flat no?
300 plus pitch? Hyderabad usually aids spin if I recall from that graphic.

 

[TheSultan]

Pedestrian start by Shaheen. Bend your back for the first over at least

 

[SpiritOf1903]

Sort the line out!

Hasan L&L gonna be vital

Really rubbish line!!!!

 

[boomboomcheema]

SSA is so sust lately

 

[BouncerGuy]

Shaheen is a bit leg sideish. He should bowl a bit straighter as the swing is not gonna last for long.

 

[Nado_]

Ok you got some swing Shaheen but have you heard of using a surprise weapon

 

[boomboomcheema]

SSA bowling trundler pace.

 

[TheSultan]

Poor start by SSA, no pace, no direction

 

[amirm]

Shaheen pace a bit slow

 

[boomboomcheema]

Shame on SS Losing the momentum already..

 

[imshally81]

Bad line from Shaheen

 

[kron]

Poor so far. Needs to get his line right.

 

[mrtaim3]

Shaheen has been slow and wayward.

 

[TheSultan]

This is what I’ve been saying - I’m pretty sure Shaheen is finished now unless he takes some time out and gets his pace back.

 

[SpiritOf1903]

Nice Hasan? Give us some grenades


Disgusting bowling

 

[hur rizvi]

Rubbish from Shaheen

No pace and no control

 

[chinaman00]

Shaheen’s speed is awful, bowling in 130s in his first over. Is he hiding an injury?

 

[Nado_]

Shaheen has forgot how to set up a wicket

 

[Asad T]

Amazing. Shows you how underrated sri lanka is.

Can't wait to watch shaheen steaming in. Rauf too.

For sure, and that too, despite numerous injuries

 

[kron]

Highest score chased in this pitch 252. Crap. That's not good.

292 is the average score in the first innings.

 

[TheSultan]

Man we have some trundlers - Hassan as bad as Shaheen

 

[Azzurri]

Hasan bowling faster than shaheen. What's up with SSA?

 

[Devadwal]

Rizwan is really funny guys .too much overreacting

 

[kron]

For sure, and that too, despite numerous injuries

Yes if lahiru and chameera are fit they can be a top 4 side potentially.

 

[chinaman00]

Shaheen has forgot how to set up a wicket

That trashing from India has seriously mentally devastated the pakistani bowling unit. They went from a self-proclaimed “best bowling attack in the world” to literally hiding.

 

[TheSultan]

Ok lol - thanks Perera. Nice gift

 

[SpiritOf1903]

Lovely!

 

[Devadwal]

Gone

 

[kron]

Keep the line tight tight. That's better

 

[BouncerGuy]

Hassan has done it again. 1st wicket down for Sri Lanka. Perera is gone. 5/1

 

[imshally81]

Out

 

[topspin]

This is what I’ve been saying - I’m pretty sure Shaheen is finished now unless he takes some time out and gets his pace back.

He's not finished. He's just been bowled to the ground because his workload has beeen mismanaged. Remember in last year's WT20, he was nowhere near 100% fit.

I'm still not convinced that he's fully fit at present.

 

[boomboomcheema]

Yes first one down..

 

[Rajdeep]

Very poor shot from Perera

 

[mominsaigol]

Jee boys, how's the match, I'm in uni class so can't watch until an hour. How's the match so far?

 

[kron]

Dare I say, hasan has been better than shaheen over the last few games.

 

[emranabbas]

Hasan ali has been the better bowler, more than half of PP didn't wanted to give him a second chance

 

[Galla]

why is chacha still in the slips especially with the way hasan is moving the ball?

 

[mominsaigol]

Hasan got perera? Nice

 

[kron]

Jee boys, how's the match, I'm in uni class so can't watch until an hour. How's the match so far?

Goneeee. 5-1 hasan wicket. Ssa bowling 130-135 though

 

[kingusama92]

 

[mominsaigol]

Goneeee. 5-1 hasan wicket. Ssa bowling 130-135 though

Thanks, how did perera get put? Bowled? LBW?

 

[topspin]

Need to get Kusal Mendis' wicket without letting him score too many. Not only is he a dangerous batsman but he's by far the best ODI batter out of the two sides.

 

[amirm]

Hopefully Shaheen regains his confidence in this game

 

[kingusama92]

Thanks, how did perera get put? Bowled? LBW?

Caught behind. Loose shot from Perera.

 

[Galla]

Dare I say, hasan has been better than shaheen over the last few games.

yup he has been getting beautiful shape with the new ball.i still have doubts over his old ball performance especially against IND and SENA

 

[Markhor]

Early observations:

Both Shaheen and Hasan really cutting back on pace, hovering around 130kph.

Line has been erratic, either legstump or very wide outside off.

That wicket is the first ball pitched on the right line and length. Hopefully that'll give us some confidence.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Mendis looks in outstanding form

 

[mrtaim3]

Thanks, how did perera get put? Bowled? LBW?

Nick to the keeper

 

[emranabbas]

Everyone going on about pace
You can't bowl pace in India your gunna get tonked to the boundary as we seen from last few games

 

[apnapind]

Hassan is bowling beautifully.

 

[160KPH]

Don’t care if Hasan bowls slow if he bowls the right line

 

[DJhant]

An ominous sign for India, Hasan is looking in impeccable touch

 

[imshally81]

Some swing fir hasan

 

[Devadwal]

That was not a great delivery but good for Hasan now his confidence is back

 

[BouncerGuy]

Perera has not found his from. poor innings in the last match and today he played a loose shot again.

 

[batandballbattle]

good start
if mendis and DDS later on aren't allowed to make too much either we have got this

 

[shah_1]

WTH has happened to Shaheen's pace?

 

[kron]

If hasan ali was 6 foot, he could have been a real top bowler.

 

[kron]

Thanks, how did perera get put? Bowled? LBW?

Nha caught behind. Good bounce. Hasan bowled a nice angled wide ball.

 

[emranabbas]

On these pitches its about line and length
faster The ball the further it will get hit

 

[imshally81]

3 wides already

 

[Devadwal]

Shaheen is bowling wayward line

 

[shah_1]

Sad to see Shaheen like that

 

[160KPH]

Shaheen looks a bit off here, need him to get warmed up quick

 

[shah_1]

I think he is not fully fit

 

[mominsaigol]

Caught behind. Loose shot from Perera.

Thanks

 

[hamzie]

What's with his line

 

[Markhor]

Shaheen’s speed is awful, bowling in 130s in his first over. Is he hiding an injury?

Ramiz said in the buildup he's carrying an injury on his third bowling finger.

 

[topspin]

I think he is not fully fit

Looks nowhere near fit.

 

[imshally81]

Another wide

 

[Devadwal]

Poor finish from England

 

[160KPH]

I think he is not fully fit

I think you are right, he’s not getting through his action as smoothly as he usually does

 

[amirm]

WTH has happened to Shaheen's pace?

Nazar in Bharat

 

[BouncerGuy]

Too many wides from SSA. Needs to be more accurate. Not good

 

[RyanRyan10]

Brilliant start for Pakistan
