Happy to see the Men in Green back in action today. Been way too long.
 
Just another meaningless ODI

At least this one will be spiced up by commentators talking about Amir i hope
 
This is not meaningless because we are getting good competition against a quality opposition and getting used to conditions Down Under.
 
Hoping to see Pakistan playing some aggressive cricket, which has been missing from sometimes now.
 
It will rain pretty hard... it will be a washout game... I m in two minds now should I go or not to watch the game
 
NZ XI: B McCullum (c), Anderson, Boult, Elliott, Guptill, Latham, N McCullum, Mills, Milne, Ronchi (wk), Taylor.
 
Thats good, we will be bowling in the evening, when it will be more cloudy.
 
Hopefully another 350+ score for Pakistan today :)

Why are you in two minds if you are certain it shall be a washout? :s

Man. NZ won the toss. NZ has mindset to bowl fast and full to get as much swing. I feel Hafeez will be out in a hurry and so will Younis. These guys can't play seaming conditions.
 
The lineup is good. But Sohaib Maqsood misses due to YK. Which I feel will hurt us in the long term.
 
Pakistan XI: M Hafeez, A Shehzad, Younis Khan, Misbah-ul-Haq (capt), 5 U Akmal, H Sohail, Sarfraz Ahmed (wk), S Afridi, B Bhatti, M Irfan, Ehsan Adil.
 
M Hafeez, A Shehzad, Younis Khan, Misbah-ul-Haq (capt), 5 U Akmal, H Sohail, Sarfraz Ahmed (wk), S Afridi, B Bhatti, M Irfan, Ehsan Adil.
 
If we can not lose a wicket for the first 15 overs, we have a good chance of posting a big total.
 
Sohail should be batting at #3. Maqsood seems a better played to have down the order but whatever, hoping the boys put in a good performance here.
 
I feel the bowling is quiet weak. We have to face it, if we don't have Hafeez bowling, it affects us big time.
 
I have a gut feeling, Bonus Khan gonna score a struggling 50 today.
 
No surprise there Younis Khan to play and Maqsood misses out.
 
Bowling is extremely weak with Hafeez not bowling. God forbid Afridi has an off day with the ball.
 
Bhatti getting so much game time makes me feel as if Junaid will not recover from injury... Bhatti is after all only the back-up for Junaid. If so, bad news for us
 
No maqsood

What a joke

At least I can see us collapse before I fall asleep or shezad and.misbah can put me to sleep
 
Wanted to see us chase instead.

But I guess we get to see practice on a full strength of the NZ attack early on with a fresh pitch rather than later with potential dew.
 
God Hafeez needs to understand that you need 300+ with this bowling attack.
