New Zealand (92/1) crush Pakistan (91) by 9 wickets in the first T20I game and lead the 5-match series 1-0

[RidiculousMan]

Now watch New Zealand prepare a flat deck in the next game and see Pakistan take cautious approach because of fear.

 

[CerebralPatriot]

We have Usman Khan and Omair Bin Yusuf but our genius selectors decided to go with frauds like Haris and Abdul Sammad

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Can't play swing or bounce

 

[Devadwal]

Bring back RizBabar.

 

[jamie smith fan]

2-3 scenes from fifa wc final.

 

[kingusama92]

These guys can't play proper swing and are getting squared up too easily.

You can't be a top-order batsman in any format without that ability.

 

[Greenstorm]

Wahab was so right about Haris

He wasn't. This is a non conventional T20 wicket.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Beautiful bowling by Jamieson

Good lines and lengths

 

[RidiculousMan]

Conditions totally alien to these new players. This is what happens when you play on underprepared or flat pitches

They should know better. Trying to hack away everything on leg side

 

[Justcrazy]

Babar and Rizwan will be back

 

[heddie19]

riz-bar would not have done better on this wicket

Yeah right, check their record in T20is in NZ before speaking

 

[JilaWatan]

Does Pakistan have the courage to stick with this new ideal or they get scared and revert back to the old players. I hope they give these guys a chances. this is just one game. Please don't write them off after one series.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

These guys can't play proper swing and are getting squared up too easily.

These guys are all proper players of just tape ball cricket where they've grown up playing can't be asked to do more than that.

 

[Muhammad Saad]

NZ pacers are bowling 125-130k and yet they can’t even touch the ball just because of extra bounce and movement.

 

[Sarmad]

Match not being shown on Willow? Any options for US?

Plz download Live Cricket TV HD app. This shows all the matches and is a good one

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan has talent is a fraud , talent is not good enough for International cricket

 

[Zeshan547]

hell yeah, score equals wickets for first time , small steps baby.

 

[Devadwal]

Shadab at 5 , intresting

 

[m.shah]

This looks like test pitch

 

[RidiculousMan]

NZ pacers are bowling 125-130k and yet they can’t even touch the ball just because of extra bounce and movement.

Swing and bounce is always harder than pace

 

[Darkrai]

IU boys to the rescue!

 

[Muhammad Saad]

Does Pakistan have the courage to stick with this new ideal or they get scared and revert back to the old players. I hope they give these guys l chances. this is just one game. Please don't write them off after one series.

We have to keep rotating these new players from the pool of 30 younger players , some will eventually come good

 

[Greenstorm]

They should knock it around for 2 overs and then start attacking.

 

[RidiculousMan]

This looks like test pitch

They've done well to neutralize Pakistan openers.

 

[Asad T]

Yeah right, check their record in T20is in NZ before speaking

on flatter nz wickets maybe, they would not have stood a chance on this wicket

 

[alik]

Another Pathan keeper, another failure

Hire a clown and you’ll always get a circus

Could you be any more racist?

 

[Devadwal]

Pakistan 3/3 in 3 over.

Beautiful good looking Scoreboard

 

[Marooned]

Pitch has plenty of bounce

Yup

 

[Ali Active]

this looks like a test match pitch

 

[jamie smith fan]

3-3 mbappe scores a banger.

 

[m.shah]

Babar and Rizwan will be back

They didn't do anything better on these pitches

 

[JilaWatan]

Babar and Rizwan will be back

I really hope now. Wayyy to early to give up on this. Especially in tough conditions away from home. We're not exactly setting them up for success. They need to stick with these guys for the time being. Stop the constant changing

 

[Justcrazy]

NZ pacers are bowling 125-130k and yet they can’t even touch the ball just because of extra bounce and movement.

This is the reality of Pakistan bench .

 

[RidiculousMan]

on flatter nz wickets maybe, they would not have stood a chance on this wicket

Bs kr. Babar has one of the best techniques among current lot. He would've survived the swing.

 

[JilaWatan]

We have to keep rotating these new players from the pool of 30 younger players , some will eventually come good

I really hope so. Its going to be ugly for a while but we will find 11 guys that can stand up against international teams.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Great start to the aggression era.

The plan was to stay positive, not stupid

 

[Justcrazy]

They didn't do anything better on these pitches

No , I mean they will be back because that was the reason they were dropped , to be back soon

 

[RidiculousMan]

Two shots Salman plays to off side and he gets result.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Done well to get on top of that Agha guided for 4 past 2nd slip

 

[Sarmad]

NZ pacers are bowling 125-130k and yet they can’t even touch the ball just because of extra bounce and movement.

There is a difference b/w aggressive cricket and careless cricket. How can haris come down the track and just slog. Didn't he notice it was swinging too much.
What is wrong in spending 2 overs at the crease and read the situation first

 

[JilaWatan]

Bs kr. Babar has one of the best techniques among current lot. He would've survived the swing.

And how does that help new guys prepare to get used to these tough conditions.

 

[jamie smith fan]

Oby should have played over Hassan.
He has good technique.

 

[RidiculousMan]

How many pacers Kiwis are playing?

 

[heddie19]

on flatter nz wickets maybe, they would not have stood a chance on this wicket

At least one of them would have scored 50+ on this track. Just good bowling, there are no demons on the pitch. Since when are you watching cricket?

 

[Marooned]

We have to keep rotating these new players from the pool of 30 younger players , some will eventually come good

Indeed. This infact is happening because we have put zero effort to build bench strength last 5 years. Obviously it's going to take time.

 

[Justcrazy]

Great start to the aggression era.

The plan was to stay positive, not stupid

Aggression , you need technique as well.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

They should knock it around for 2 overs and then start attacking.

They shouldn't be attacking after losing 3 in 6 balls.

Play till the 10th-12 over and then hit out. Till then knock it around for 1's and 2's get 4-5 an over.

 

[m.shah]

No , I mean they will be back because that was the reason they were dropped , to be back soon

I think Saim and Fakhar will be back

 

[alik]

Samad averages less than 19 runs in t20s, it’s so crazy to see a debut given to someone that probably shouldn’t even get into a psl team

 

[mango_bite77]

What's the lowest pp score in international cricket?

 

[G0rmintAunty]

Are RizBab in NZ aalready?

 

[jamie smith fan]

I think Saim and Fakhar will be back

Saim,maaz/OBY and fakhar should be our top 3 in t20s.

 

[shariqnoor]

In the golden words of Mohammad Haris, "T20 opening is the easiest thing. Even I can score 50's every match."

Just got his backside handed out to him. It's one thing having to hit dross like Shaheen and Rauf. Completely different to hitting international bowlers.

This guy belongs to the category of Awais Zia and Riffatullah Mohmand.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

What a catch to get rid of Shadab

 

[Devadwal]

Babar and Rizwan must be laughing after seeing the batting of fearless player's .

 

[jamie smith fan]

Samad averages less than 19 runs in t20s, it’s so crazy to see a debut given to someone that probably shouldn’t even get into a psl team

He hasn't even scored a 45 in T20s.

 

[RidiculousMan]

Regardless of Result. Even if Pakistan gets all out under 20. They should still play all these youngsters these 5 games.

 

[Marooned]

<50 loading ig...

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Robinson what a catch

3 for Jamieson

 

[ask_analyse_act]

omg they cant put bat on ball.. domestic cricket vs intl cricket is a like a pacific ocean wide gap for these boys..

They should stick to playing each other in their own backyard or tour some minnow countries to play cricket.

 

[Greenstorm]

Pakistanis batters can't play cut shot. They try to ride the bounce instead of throwing hands at it.

 

[G0rmintAunty]

What's the lowest pp score in international cricket?

We do, 13 against the WI.

 

[Greenstorm]

omg they cant put bat on ball.. domestic cricket vs intl cricket is a like a pacific ocean wide gap for these boys..

Calm down. These are test match conditions.

 

[Devadwal]

Vice Captain gone

Pakistan 11/4

 

[RidiculousMan]

Khushdil must look to survive in this powerplay.

 

[Zeshan547]

wasted sleep for this crap,.don't we deserve better. Jana kis gunah ke saza hai ye team, might as well Pakistan should just give up on cricket.

 

[jamie smith fan]

Another one bites the dust.
We will be lucky to get to even 100.

 

[kingusama92]

Nightmare start for Pakistan.

 

[Marooned]

Swing isn't stopping. That's crazy.

 

[ask_analyse_act]

the vice captain who was brought back without no performance to back goes for 3...

Knowing them well and good Saqlain backed away for this tour.. Smart coach...

 

[m.shah]

Best fielding side comfortably

 

[Energy]

Back to the 15/4 days of the past.

Aggressive blessings.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Shadab today will have time to do a TV show where he can talk about his own batting

 

[Muhammad Saad]

This is brain less batting, they should have improvise and play flick or uppercut to counter the movement

 

[Asif321]

Without Saim and Fakhar Pakistan is zero . Be it ODI or t20 . Both need to come in and one of Babar and Rizwan will definitely need to join in

 

[alik]

He hasn't even scored a 45 in T20s.

how is this even possible lmao

 

[RidiculousMan]

This is brain less batting, they should have improvise and play flick or uppercut to counter the movement

Maybe they don't have that skill.

 

[jamie smith fan]

Lol new era

 

[Asad T]

At least one of them would have scored 50+ on this track. Just good bowling, there are no demons on the pitch. Since when are you watching cricket?

no demons in this pitch
ok if you say so...

 

[RidiculousMan]

how is this even possible lmao

Great minds of Pakistan Cricket Management
