[Sunzi]

Fakhar!

100v

I take your word for it lol

Usman khan just got out, dynamic is changed now, Rizwan must be more aggressive atm

 

[hamzie]

fakhar please seal the deal

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

With Fakhar at least we'll have a left-right combo.

And some positive intent.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Even umpires favouring Pakistan

 

[Asif321]

What a hit

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Beautiful from Fakhar

 

[mominsaigol]

@Mamoon

If Pakistan wins it'll be fakhar or bust. How does it make you feel Bobby chocked and didn't do anything

 

[aukhan]

Fakhar is the key here.

Six by Fakhar.

 

[Smbhayi]

Big hit by Fakhar.. 6..

 

[Caved12]

These are very tricky pitches to bat on. Play with the straight bat as much as possible and look to rotate the strike. Take the game deep with wickets in hand and then take risk in the last 6 overs

Ok wait Fakhar has a totally different plan here and hits a very nice 6

 

[shah_1]

Usman Khan is worse than Saim

 

[boomboomcheema]

Usman should have atleast gone for a couple of sixes like that, rather than getting dismissed weekly.

 

[emranabbas]

Fakhar zaman playing on a different pitch

 

[SpiritOf1903]

They're gonna leave 20 for the last over at this rate!

 

[gibsyhesperis]

So Rizwan just needs to stay in and others can play with freedom around him.
Only need a run a ball

 

[sweep_shot]

54 are needed from 54.

Should be easy.

 

[topspin]

Before Fakhar came in, Pakistan were below the run rate. Fakhar faces a few balls, Pakistan are now batting at the required rate.

 

[Suleiman]

It’s a blue sea, everywhere is blue.

 

[MP2011]

Congrats to all PPers in advance. Kohli, Rohit and Jadeja need to be booted out for the geriatrics they are. Only a thrashing by Pakistan can possibly jolt BCCI into action, if anything.

Lol, 152/0 couldn't do anything why do you think this game will?

 

[SpiritOf1903]

Don't splice it!!

A nervy watch Fakhar even at his best

 

[JattMaula]

Umpires tried to deny a straightforward lbw. but India still got the wicket.

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

Usman should have atleast gone for a couple of sixes like that, rather than getting dismissed weekly.

He hasn't got the game to play cautiously. All his runs in the PSL were made playing aggressively.

 

[adzzy786]

come on Fakhar!!!

 

[followed]

PCB got this Usman khan by begging. LOL.

 

[Asad T]

Why wasn't Fakhar batting first in the super over lolll,

 

[UzmanBeast]

Need to keep this partnership going.

 

[kingusama92]

Fakhar putting the game away here.

 

[JattMaula]

Umpires tried to deny a straightforward lbw. but India still got the wicket.

In apparantly very behind on stream.

 

[Smbhayi]

Thats a rubbish delivery by Arshdeep..

 

[MP2011]

Arshdeep is another nothing bowler who bowls well only against minnows.

 

[adzzy786]

It looked out even on first viewing to be honest. It turned to bring it back in to the stumps.

I was joking bro

 

[Suleiman]

Before Fakhar came in, Pakistan were below the run rate. Fakhar faces a few balls, Pakistan are now batting at the required rate.

And yet he is batting below individuals who should not even dream of being in the top order.

Only in Pakistan. If David Warner was Pakistani he would be hidden away at 6 or 7

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Very clear some posters still can't put their agenda aside when everything is on the line for Pakistan.

Shame.

Doesn't matter who scores or how. We just need to win.

 

[amvbfm]

Would be dumb to leave it until the last few overs when the pressure is on and he's bowling at the death.

Fakhar will either take care of that or ensure this match goes right down to the wire

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

It’s a blue sea, everywhere is blue.

Most of them must be feeling pretty blue at this stage.

 

[Asad T]

i bet some money on india as an emotional edge, i hope i lose it

 

[Energy]

Fakhar has eased the nerves. Perfect player for this situation.

Indians phir ro rahe ho. LOL hahahah.

 

[Justcrazy]

Totals between 120 - 150 are ideal for Rizwan , it allows him to take some time.

 

[boomboomcheema]

Rizwan should be getting singles now atleast. No dots.

 

[amvbfm]

India need to bring back Bumrah now or it will be too late for them.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Lol, 152/0 couldn't do anything why do you think this game will?

True.

 

[followed]

What the heck is this rizwan doing
29 off 40 balls.

 

[MP2011]

Except for Rahul, we are playing all other players fr that 152/0 game.

Means nothing will change.

 

[t_kaay]

Should go for it to get nrr up

 

[Asad T]

Are you sure WinWiz?

 

[gazza619]

waqar not letting his fellow commies speak. Shushhh Waqar

 

[followed]

Rizwan needs to play some aggressive shots.

 

[MP2011]

I unnecessarily got hopeful last year when we started playing the likes of Rinku and the oldies like Kohli were out of T20 team.

Chacha apna gandasa tyaar kar raha hai.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Oh Fakhar

 

[followed]

Poor from fakhar here.

 

[MP2011]

Fakhar gone

 

[RidiculousMan]

Game done here

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

Well that was a gift.

 

[adzzy786]

Fakhar for F sake

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Fakhar gone

 

[Justcrazy]

OUT

Pakistan just stuttering here in smalll total

 

[Smbhayi]

Fakhar throwed his wicket away..

 

[boomboomcheema]

Unfortunate but brave by Fakhar.

 

[Major]

Fakhar did a better job than what usman did.

 

[aukhan]

This is bad

 

[followed]

Fakhar is so frustrating. He should have killed the game but he will never learn.

 

[Sunzi]

We know how to lose from winning positions.

Loading another from the archives here.

 

[adzzy786]

no need for that at all

 

[Asif321]

Dumb from Fakhar

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Good call to send Imad.

 

[angrypathan]

Glad they sent Imad here tbh

 

[shah_1]

Get Shaheen in

If he can hit two sixes and game over

 

[Markhor]

What was the need for that ?

 

[SpiritOf1903]

Rizwan is strangling them!!!!

Thinks just so predictable

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

I guess we got some cheap wickets, would have been too much to expect we wouldn't give any.

 

[Energy]

Wow. Fakhar turned out to be quite a douche. Two games now he's thrown his wicket.

 

[UzmanBeast]

No need for unnecessary risks, need to just keep a partnership.

 

[Ahmed216]

Foolish shot from Zaman. Only needed to extend this partnership. This approach of swinging at every ball is destroying Pak cricket

 

[amvbfm]

Getting out to Pandya of all people Rizwan the key now. If he doesnt play out the full 20 Pakistan might not win this.

 

[MP2011]

At least it won't be a 10 wickets thrashing.

 

[Rana]

@Mamoon

If Pakistan wins it'll be fakhar or bust. How does it make you feel Bobby chocked and didn't do anything

Fair play to Bobby

He made some good calls in the field today. He’s captained well.
