New Zealand defeat Pakistan by 61 runs (D/L method) to win 1st ODI

On batting merit, Sarfaraz really seems at loss in the ODI and T20 team.

Just don't understand how he plays ultra agressive and care free in Tests yet becomes a bheegi billi on limited overs cricket
 
Meaningless One day series. What really matter is ICC Tournaments or Test Cricket. I do not care even if Pakistan loses this series 5-0. In World cup 2019 we will beat Newzealand. Bi lateral series belong to South Africans and Kiwiz.

No 5-0 would be concerning. I just want the management to use its brain.
 
Typical Pakistani mindset. Launching spinners into the stand but can't do anything when the ball is zipping past their ears
 
After the trash players are gone, the chase can begin.

Bhai wait til Faheem comes he will play innings similar to Pandya in CT final except won't get run out.

I'm still waiting for the likes of Shadab and Fahim to get recognition with the bat. I want some star studded performances from them.
 
Hey everybody lets all take 10 balls each to get going...that's only 1/3 of the innings

No one can, it's not a phenomenon linked exclusively to Pakistanis

Like your celebration of 11-0 which is 25 years old :))) :)))

The likes of England, India, Australia, New Zealand all have batsmen who like to take on the pace. Even West Indies

Not when it is near their ears... definitely not India
 
half of this thread is discussing the CT final for some reason.
 
Well played fifty by Fakhar... PP experts wanted him dropped :)))
 
The only mistake Pak made in their batting was losing too many wickets to Southee and Boult.
 
Damn... another one...


Shady is our second best bat after Fakhar
 
Fakhar, Fahim, Shadab, Hassan....Amir

Besides these 5 players I think the rest are all deadwood

Rumman is ok but needs to bowl 140kmh

Yeah the so called experts who firstly didnt want him to debut bcz his technique wasn't good enough and he proved to be a match winner.

In all the posts I have made, have I once referred to 11-0 or IPL or BCCI etc etc or just about anything that is there to gloat, I am just commenting about the game I am following...calling it like it is...I commented on Sarfaraz,response was CT....ok I said Amir is wicketless-response was Amir did well in CT....I mean really?

That is fine,people tend to hold on to the past while taking a drubbing in the present :)))
 
fakhars innings reminds of the time michael slater make 80 odd in a test innings in quick time while australia was dismissed for 150 something

Maybe I didn't say it correctly, Pakistani batsmen really don't seem bothered to actually take on Pace bowlers

Well Fakhar must have changed his game plan when he saw what was happening on the other end.

Bro you are bit harsh on Babar, he is still 22, 23 and definitely has got the potential. Sarfaraz is a good batsman and more importantly captain but is wasted down the order. His position in ODIs should be 3 down no matter what. Or may be two down but at 4 down he is wasted

Because they have convinced themselves that they can't play it...... it's an instinctive shot.

From what I have seen sharjeel, imran Nazir, fakhar and faheem have/had the natural instinct for it.
 
Shady is playing him as if he is an Indian trundler

only sharjeel.

Exactly, the only guy that really isn't scared of the ball hitting his box.

The cheapest celeb In the history of Pakistan (Shoaib Malik) likes to take on medium pacers In UAE and feel like he's a Bollywood star on social media. Otherwise he will always try to run it down to third man if the pace is a bit up you know...useless
 
ferguson reminds me of will smith's partner from bright
 
NZ were only 17 runs ahead at this stage... we got this
 
I said we were a batsman short

But we could have 15 and probably fail

Should be only one between Hafeez/Malik

Azhar only performs in gimmie matches or bats slow in a real game

No I'm sorry but until Babar Azam actually wants to step up and take the responsibility of guiding his team instead of being guided along the way by Malik and Hafeez, till then this lad can shove his 55 average and 7 odi tons where the sun doesn't shine.
 
New Zealand may regret their decision to go with 2 spinners just like a certain team did on June 18 :ashwin

Wow...just...wow

Easy to say that from behind your screen on your keyboard.
 
Well done Fakhar Zaman. At least you proved you can score runs outside an ICC game
