New Zealand v Pakistan | 1st ODI | Wellington | Jan 25, 2016 | Pakistan innings

[Wristy_Shuffler]

Well Played NZ.

Every time I see Irfan come to bat, I remember when Pakistan needed 1 to win and he tried to swipe 5 delivers off Maxwell out of the ground, only to connect with thin air.

That didn't happen.

Collapsed at end )

 

[IcedCoffee]

pathetic ,dont' compare Malik with Dada ,Dada changed Indian cricket by facing everyone head on

So did Malik... it's not easy to stir drama. Takes talent.

I'd not be too keen to fling mud at others when your own savior (Azhar) lost us this game.

Lmao what am I stuck in the titanic?

 

[Shafi]

4 wickets for 1 runs!!!! What a batting by tailenders!!!!

 

[Executioner]

Na, I am always too optimistic when it comes to Pakistan side.

I thought they would come close. I think it has more to do with expecting a down-to-wire stuff than trusting NZ's ability. But 99-6 to 280-9, how?

 

[carrom_ball]

Lol irfan can't bat at all, is a terrible fielder and just an above average bowler, overall as a player he is not international standard

 

[Aman]

Good win in the end, Watling to come in for the next 2 matches and McCullum expected back for the third.

Hopefully can seal the series on Thursday and have some fun in the third.

 

[Aman]

Guptill and McCullum opening @ Eden Park in a dead rubber


Provided NZ win on Thursday that is.

Well Played NZ.



That didn't happen.

Then go watch how Maxwell defended one run off Australia when Irfan was trying to score 1 run.

Clearly you missed that match.

 

[Sadevdesai]

An entirely winnable match .... gifted away !!!

 

[SunTzu]

That didn't happen.

Sarcastic? If not then it very much did. Maxwell bowled a double wicket maiden to win the game by 1 run.

 

[Aman]

An entirely winnable match .... gifted away !!!

Even if you did end up rolling us, I get the feeling you would have still messed it up.

You were rolled for 210 with NZ a bowler short.

 

[IcedCoffee]

There has never been a time until now, when I've actually enjoyed watching/been excited for our neighbor's games more so than our own.

PS:Guess Pakistan kept that Basin chase record still intact.

 

[pasha404]

Against whom?You are taking Greg Chappell's words for things that are in front of your eyes?

off course Greg chappell words.if you do not like Greg Chappell then sorry i can't help.
you think Greg was lieing

 

[Nikhil_cric]

4 wickets for 1 runs!!!! What a batting by tailenders!!!!

Not that bad brother. 4 wickets for 5 runs.

 

[Aman]

All wickets were gifted, nothing out of ordinary.

And none of Pakistan's weren't?

 

[Saeed]

Even if you did end up rolling us, I get the feeling you would have still messed it up.

You were rolled for 210 with NZ a bowler short.

Our moral would have been higher and we would have chased it easily.

 

[carrom_ball]

Not that bad brother. 4 wickets for 5 runs.

Ah, more than a run per wicket, good performance by pakistani tail

 

[Aman]

Our moral would have been higher and we would have chased it easily.

1-0 in the moral victory stats?

 

[jog_1]

We basically lost this match the moment they scored more than 230

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Not even a moral victory for Pakistan here. Very unfortunate . Not to worry two more matches to claim a moral victory.

 

[Wristy_Shuffler]

Then go watch how Maxwell defended one run off Australia when Irfan was trying to score 1 run.

Clearly you missed that match.

No. I watched the match but I'm saying that your memory conveniently omits the ugly swipes Tanvir played in the first half of the over only to get out.

Ah, more than a run per wicket, good performance by pakistani tail
