New Zealand v Pakistan | 1st ODI | January 31, 2015 | Wellington | Pakistan Innings

[Mamoon]

Are you not on house job?

Not yet. In final year now.

 

[Syed1]

NZ will chase it with 2-3 down and 5 overs to spare

 

[todfod 11]

It started to rain slowly now.

 

[Mamoon]

Pakistan cricket is just so mediocre now. Absolutely shambolic.

Quality players are nowhere to be found.

 

[Bilal7]

More like 60 to 70.

250 is the par score on this ground, no? That is what I saw at the start of the innings.

 

[Aman]

Not a single wicket was taken by black caps... all were given away for free...especially afridi and misbah after playibg so well.

Not our fault your batsmen are crap.

 

[Smbhayi]

Its frustrating for the opposition because he looks like a complete tailender batsmen who's swinging for the fences and connecting.

Like Ronchi every time. .

 

[NZcricketfan]

Like Ronchi every time. .

You obviously have not watched ronchi bat then

 

[Aman]

250 is the par score on this ground, no? That is what I saw at the start of the innings.

Yeah, 250 after Pakistan played out a wicket maiden.

where are Hafeezites and Saint YK followers #embarrasment

 

[Aman]

Misbah excluded*

 

[Dr_Bassim]

It's your fault in the end.

You can't drop him at 14. It wasn't a difficult catch.

Pakistan would be bowled out for 170 had you held the catch.

After that, you should expect Afridi to cash in. He has good hand-eye coordination and won't give you chance after chance, even if he is a tailender.

 

[Aman]

Haris as well.

 

[Smbhayi]

Newzealand's bowling attack is not that great if you take out milne out. Its medipcre to be very honest.

you means the likes of Mills, N Mac and Boult no good.. so basically says Pak top order worst than minnows..

 

[Laal]

where are Hafeezites and Saint YK followers #embarrasment

They have followers? I can't believe that. Hafeez is useless without his bowling.

 

[FreeBird]

It's your fault in the end.

You can't drop him at 14. It wasn't a difficult catch.

Pakistan would be bowled out for 170 had you held the catch.

.

wrong!
Umer Akmal would have played a totally different innings ... by being AWAY from Misbah.

 

[Ottoman]

Not a single wicket was taken by black caps... all were given away for free...especially afridi and misbah after playibg so well.

Pak batsmen doesn't have a middle game.

its block block block boom, no middle game. Somebody should teach them how to play ODI cricket.

 

[iafzal]

Decent score after being down 32 for 3.
Had Misbah not had rush of judgement we could have ended up close to 240-250 that would have been a respectable score.

Out top order is crap at this point kind of like the 92 team. We knew YK and Hafeez may struggle but even Shahzad is playing poorly.

 

[Suleiman]

Was gonna switch off the TV after Sarfraz's wicket, but thought that today might be the day Afridi goes big.

Was not disappointed. Should look to sign off from ODIs with good form in batting and bowling.

 

[Kianig89]

They have followers? I can't believe that. Hafeez is useless without his bowling.

[waleed88]

wrong!

Actually Umar performed worst under Afridi as captain.

 

[Kianig89]

YK with a customary 9 (26) )

 

[Dr_Bassim]

wrong!
Umer Akmal would have played a totally different innings ... by being AWAY from Misbah.

Umer Akmal's best performances have come playing with Misbah sadly.

Isn't that strange for a guy who follows statistics that he missed this little stat ?

Anyways, Umar Akmal could play with Sohail Tanvir and still have a brain freeze early on in the match.

He is mentally feeble.

 

[Ikball]

Pakistan lineup is exactly what it will be in most of worldcup matches, batting fail and looking how bowlers will perform. Does not look a good worldcup for us.

 

[Laal]

Actually Umar performed worst under Afridi as captain.

If Umar Akmal needs someone as a captain to play better than I'm afraid he's not in the right profession.

 

[Mamoon]

Only when he's bowling.

As a batsman, he is mediocre and will come good once in 10 innings, like Shehzad.

When these two are your openers, there's little hope.

Umer should work hard to build patience, he cant play longer than 10-15 overs. Thats why he start doing stupid things after scoring some runs. IMO

 

[Ikball]

btw this NZ team is performing very well, one of hard favourite to win this worldcup.
