ICC World Cup 2023: Pakistan vs Netherlands | Match 2 | Hyderabad | 06 October | Pakistan innings

[Smbhayi]

Netherlands bowling well tbh.. Pakistan little bit under pressure here..

 

[Shafi]

Babar will be failed miserably since no team playing their C/D teams

 

[Rana]

Beautiful bowling man

 

[SpiritOf1903]

They are so wary and hesitant. As if murali is bowling on day 5 Galle pitch. Lol this is hilarious Muttiah dutt

Mental midgets

 

[ChTab]

Fakhar such a useless player. Hopefully he will get boot after this WC

 

[boomboomcheema]

Babar in nervous 10s

 

[Ali Active]

why is pakistan already under pressure so weak mentally

 

[Rana]

5 overs 18

What a fast start

 

[TheSultan]

Imam getting beaten by a minnow trundler

 

[Ali Active]

5 overs 18

What a fast start

fearless approach.

 

[Rana]

This is proper bowling!

 

[Ahmed216]

Cowards

 

[topspin]

Horrendous start. Are we the minnows here?

 

[mominsaigol]

Imam getting beaten by a minnow trundler

Tbf, nedtherlands are bowling well.

 

[AAli98]

Pitch ain’t doing anything these guys come with a filthy mindset, Ind Eng etc would have been 40 by now

 

[mrtaim3]

Pakistan going into their shell against Netherlands.

Giving away soft wickets. Why not try to be aggressive? You're gonna get out anyway with this pathetic approach.

 

[TheSultan]

Hold the back pages! Imam hit a boundary

 

[mominsaigol]

Horrendous start. Are we the minnows here?

Short answer: Yes

Long answer: Was their ever any doubt based of how we played Asia cups and warmups lol?

 

[Adi_62945]

Failing to understand whats so difficult in the bowling

 

[Rana]

Pitch ain’t doing anything these guys come with a filthy mindset, Ind Eng etc would have been 40 by now

It’s definitely spinning

 

[castortroy]

Once again another tournament ruined by the toss.

The pitches seem two paced first up and then skid on in the 2nd innings

 

[Shafi]

Babar looks a little rusty.

Because he is playing against main team not C/D players

 

[castortroy]

Whoever wins the toss will bowl first in this tournament

 

[Rana]

Imam’s weakness is the outswinging ball on the back of a length

 

[TheSultan]

Once again another tournament ruined by the toss.

The pitches seem two paced first up and then skid on in the 2nd innings

Come on - even with the Toss, you should be beating Minnows. I think Netherlands will be ok

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

This Fakhar has been out of touch for 3 years now. Should have just chanced it with Ayub or Huraira.

 

[Rana]

Bracewell showed where to bowl off spin to Babar

 

[ex-q-zit]

How long will it take for Saim to get his Indian visa? If Pakistan want to bring him in on an emergency basis?

Saim was not even considered worthy to be sent to Asian games and you are speaking about WC. Asif Ali, Haider Ali Kushdil are setting the Asian Games on fire with their fireworks.

 

[TheSultan]

babar is really struggling

 

[Shafi]

How on earth Fakhar with his timid mindset works for army. This will run away first if there is any attack from enemy.

 

[NeVerMind]

Ball is turning too much now...and we are not playing Usama in this match

 

[Ali Active]

That bowler looks like chucking

 

[AAli98]

It’s definitely spinning

Cut a long story short Pak are trying to drag other teams to there level.

 

[topspin]

That was a freebie. How are you not going to cash in on that?

 

[Ahmed216]

Imam’s weakness is the outswinging ball on the back of a length

Aussie tour next

 

[Rana]

Definitely turn and bounce

 

[ExpressPacer]

Babar all at sea right now…

 

[NeVerMind]

It's not David Warner and Steve Smith bowling their halwa spin anymore, Babar!

 

[BouncerGuy]

Such a nervy start is not a new thing for Pakistan. That is the approach they have been following so I am not shocked at all.

 

[Sherazkhalid]

RR of 4, man others play at RR of 8 and here we are, smh.

 

[Shafi]

We may loose all the games here. Pathetic captain and his buddies will cost us humiliation. PCB is such a spineless board to stand up against this so-called over-hyped batsman and pretending captain

 

[Rana]

28-1 after 7

15 runs scored in last 5 overs and 1 wicket

 

[castortroy]

Come on - even with the Toss, you should be beating Minnows. I think Netherlands will be ok

Not referring to this game. Pak should still beat Netherlands.

The toss will play a major part in all the other games where minnows are not involved

 

[NeVerMind]

Going at 4 runs an over just like in 92....can we chop that down as another comparison to 1992?

 

[AAli98]

Dodgy pitch or not can you see Bairstow Warner gill letting Sanjay Dutt bowl dots after dots.

 

[boomboomcheema]

Let them settle there is no hurry to go for runs right now. If Babar gets dismissed Pakistan will be in a hole.

 

[King_Babar]

Some very good bowling by NED and defensive start by Pak. Things should ease down as the game progresses.

 

[Nado_]

Guys relax , sometimes even the minnows will have good bowling spells. Still a long way to go in the innings

 

[GLORY OF '92]

300 is a good score here

 

[BouncerGuy]

No doubt in the bowling here. Netherlands is bowling some tight lines. Good stuff

 

[pratiktc]

We have seen on this ground that once a set batter starts rolling they can peel off 170-180 in last 20 overs.

It's ok to hold the fort for first half of inns

 

[Rana]

Babar not getting the lengths he is comfortable on

 

[Nado_]

Who else will we be playing on this pitch

 

[Rana]

Very happy to see the back of Dutt I recon

 

[NeVerMind]

Babar gone! Oh my God!

 

[Rana]

Babar gone!

 

[Hitman]

Babar gone.

 

[castortroy]

Wow this team is awful

 

[SpiritOf1903]

Imam getting beaten by a minnow trundler

Not minnows TBF.

 

[TheSultan]

Oh dear oh dear

 

[BouncerGuy]

There we go. Babar is gone. poor poor stuff.

 

[ExpressPacer]

What in the world was that shot…

 

[Ali Active]

dot dot dot and go for glory shot and get out pathetic from babar and pakistan

 

[SpiritOf1903]

Goodness me. This could be the worst World Cup ever. Lions barely kittens

 

[shah_1]

What a flop Babar is

No confidence at all.

 

[JattMaula]

Lucky wicket but oranges will take it.

 

[CerebralPatriot]

For the fans who have been forced to endure the torture of this team since 2019 don't worry our retribution is coming soon

 

[Sherazkhalid]

Dark day indeed, losing to Afg and Ned in the same day.

 

[Rana]

Oh my God

 

[NeVerMind]

Babar was living under the false pretence that only the likes of Steve Smith and David Warner type of bowlers were going to B wl at him...

 

[Savak]

Babar struggles very badly on spinning pitches

 

[pratiktc]

Ned dont even have proper spinners and Babar gifts his wicket to a part timer. SMH

 

[Afhan Ali]

Softie is gone. Lumber 1 odi cricketer

 

[apnapind]

What can babar do here when the pitch is spinning like cobra

 

[TheSultan]

What a flop Babar is

No confidence at all.

No1 ranked!

 

[kingusama92]

2007 vibes

 

[shah_1]

Babar should not be the captain of this team after this WC, has been awful as a batsman in major tournament with the captaincy

 

[Hitman]

Pakistan will be in big trouble if Rizwan fails today.

 

[sam_ahm]

Babar-e-Azam goes... Some of you were thinking Netherlands have played Gilli Danda and qualified for the World Cup.

 

[Shafi]

Babar is out. This guy is just a over-hyped and can't score against any decent bowler. This World Cup will be nightmare for him as all teams have decent bowlers. Face the reality to play against proper players
