Ireland v Pakistan | 1st ODI | Dublin (Malahide) | Aug 18, 2016 | Pakistan Innings

Thanks.

Anybody can have Khan as a Surname? In India, as far as I know only Pathans keep Khan in their name.

Yes many Punjabi/Kashmiris casts use Khan as surname specially the Sardars. For example almost 6/7 out of last 10 Azad Kashmir Primite Ministers and President were Sardars and used Khan surname.

Sardar Muhammad Yaqoob Khan
Sardar Muhammad Anwar Khan
Raja Muhammad Zulqarnain Khan
Sardar Muhammad Ibrahim Khan
Sardar Mohammad Abdul Qayyum Khan
Sardar Sikandar Hayat Khan
Sardar Attique Ahmed Khan

Niazis like Imran and Misbah also use Khan surname. Although Niazis are settled in Punjab from centuries now and don't speak pashto but they started from a Pashtun tribe and are ethnically Pathans.
 
Forget about Sharjeel Khan, in my years of watching and playing cricket I have not seen such a talented Pakistani batsman than Babar Azam. I'm 24 right now and live in the UK, I remember going to an u19 camp back in 2009 in Pakistan while I was on a gap year before starting university... And I remember watching Babar Azam then as a 14/15 year old and he was heads and shoulders above other players and batsmen.... It's at that point I knew cricket wasn't for me and I wouldn't make it as a player and decided to pursue a career in banking and finance!
 
Is Pakistan's first ODI double ton on?

Imagine the trolling over whether double tons on phattu pitches against a full member team is more impressive than a double ton in British conditions but against an associate team.

It's going to be a nightmare.
 
That's good running. Babar has only hit 2 boundaries in this run-a-ball innings showing how well he's ran between the wickets and found the gaps.

Thanks. That clears up.

I always thought Sharjeel does not look anywhere close to Imran or Afridi.

Khan is like Singh in India. Anyone can have it. Its a title that rulers adopted.
 
Azhar is not deserving of an ODI spot let alone being the captain. He should stop playing ODI cricket and limit himself to Test cricket only. Hafeez is past his shelf life and no point wasting time on him better to invest in future. Sitting Sami Aslam for Hafeez is such a shame.

Thats true I would prefer Sami Aslam

I just think labelling him as most limited batsman in the team is just wrong

Double hundred is a massive achievement, no matter where and against who :)

Afridi is a pure Pathan while Imran's mother was Pathan and father was Niazi.
 
Don't like this lineup against England. Hafeez and Azhar are useless. If Sharjeel gets out early (very possible) we only have Babar. Malik and Sarfraz can't score big/finish an innings off.
 
Poor dismissal. Static feet and swinging outside off. Babar should've pushed on for a fifty as he was well set and playing nicely.
 
Poor shot. No feet movement. Azam gone.

Wasted an easy opportunity to score a Hundred.
 
Sigh, and he was doing so well too. I thought he was set for a big score.
 
Went through the stroke too quickly, flashed at it rather than caressing the ball. It was there for driving, just didn't execute it correctly.

Would have connected had he moved his feet
 
If Sharjeel gets out now, we will only manage 290-300
 
[MENTION=136108]Donal Cozzie[/MENTION] why isn't Boyd Ranking playing? Or did my team the bears steal him from you permanently :afridi
 
Sharjeel Khan hammering everything towards Legside and Irish bowlers keep bowling him there Lmao..
 
Did any of you guys spot the sharjeel hype train doing laps around the ground? :)))
 
Delivery on leg stump right in Sharjeel's zone. Ireland when will you learn ?
 
Why are they not bowling OFFSIDE the stump to him lmao?


didn't they receive enough hammering towards Legside to realize that??
 
Take nothing away from Sharjeel. This has been a brilliant display of clean hitting, but Willey, Woakes and Plunkett aren't going to be offering as many freebies as this.
 
Sarfu saying wait wait wait but running halfway down the pitch :ibutt
 
LOL at the supporters.

That's nothing, at the end of Pakistans final game against Zimbabwe in the 2007 WC a fan in the stands running up and down with Pakistan flag ran into a pole and dropped :))) [MENTION=53290]Markhor[/MENTION] might remember
