I was thinking Babar was a leftie all this time before I saw him for the first time now in my stream.

Looks a good player.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan lack batting depth to win this game.

 

[MMHS]

From what i observed, these wickets in NZ are difficult to bat on first 15 overs of the day and the for the remaining overs it becomes flat. Last time we played NZ in NZ, we were 9-2 in 7 overs from which we scored 285 which NZ chased down narrowly. Maybe if we batted 2nd we could have won..

I think Pakistan should win this because the pitch is flat, but should win is one thing, can they? With the FTB out of the way it will be difficult.

That's true, if you have couple of set batsman - if your Top 3, goes after 35, 23 & 56 balls, 230 becomes difficult. We put 285, because No. 3 (or 4) got a hundred & there was a big partnership.

 

[Madplayer]

There werent 2 there!!!! You fools

 

[JibranAnsari]

Babar plays so many dotz

 

[razabbas]

Not out dekh kar bhag bhai

 

[IcedCoffee]

So lucky there...

 

[ZAK]

He is safe.

That was close.

 

[Madplayer]

Amazing dive saved babar. Desperation saved him. But this crazy running and not required at all.

 

[ZAK]

Don't do that again Babar.

Rotating the strike very well now.

 

[cricfan14]

I don't even care about the match, we'll lose, just keep doing well Babar please

 

[ZAK]

Cut for four by Maqsood.

[hur rizvi]

Inzi would struggle to play this shot

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan lack plan when chasing , they get under pressure and slog .

 

[Madplayer]

by maqsood. Please show us there is more to u than just ugly hacks.

 

[Abdullah719]

Masha'Allah, Maqsood. See, you can play shots without premeditation.

 

[Executioner]

I still don't see why Pak cannot win this

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Can we chase this ????? A breath of fresh air is Babar to our batting lineup

 

[JibranAnsari]

One four excites pak supporters..poor us.

 

[MMHS]

Babar's 1st quality is, he tries to play on grass. He is a perfect prospect for No. 3, but MoHa won't allow him there.

 

[Executioner]

NZ playing 2nd string side, with key bowler injured. Pakistan should win this really

 

[cricfan14]

Can we chase this ????? A breath of fresh air is Babar to our batting lineup

No. Just enjoy Babar as long as you can. After him there's nothing there in chasing talent

 

[IcedCoffee]

Oh great the jinxer Rameez is on again.

 

[razabbas]

I still don't see why Pak can win this

Fix

 

[MuqaddarKaSikandar]

Maqsood's last chance

 

[JibranAnsari]

Rrr 7.2. Wag beyond Pakistan

 

[ZAK]

Wide.

boult following wahab footsteps

 

[hur rizvi]

He better mean business because he's going to be dropped faster than he can charge down the pitch if he doesn't score here.

No bro when going gets tough Inzi clone gets going

Asli Inzi made mark first time in NZ, Clone to do the same here today

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Impressed by Babar Azam . This is still very much chaseable.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Oh great the jinxer Rameez is on again.

Yah its all his fault

 

[ZAK]

2 more to Babar.

[MMHS]

Imad, Sarf, Anwar & these 2 with Aamir & Wahab - it's indeed possible. Normally, they say you double the score after 30 overs - that's almost 270 & Kiwis are missing a bowler & these days they use 2 balls. PAK is just 1 wicket behind I think.

 

[hur rizvi]

boult following wahab footsteps

That would be tough even if he bowls with eyes closed

 

[Madplayer]

Babar is good. The word good gets thrown around but understand the value of it by seeing babar bat. He is good.

 

[Abdullah719]

Insha'Allah, but your signature doesn't really help.

 

[ZAK]

Another wide.

[daytrader]

We have good prospects, the board needs to crack down on senior players lobbying. Hafeez, Shehzad etc are not good enough for the modern game and are hampering progress. They rightly should be shown the door

 

[IcedCoffee]

Yah its all his fault

Don't be silly. How can it be his fault? It's mostly our batting and poor captaincy that is to be blamed.

 

[razabbas]

tbh maqsood looking good

he is not uncomfortable unlike our top 3

 

[ZAK]

138/3.

Treat it like 20-20 match now. Ground is not too big. 150 in 120 balls is perfectly chaseable.

 

[Justcrazy]

143 from 20 overs left

 

[Red Devil]

Oh man, Elliot's back again.

 

[razabbas]

Elloit again

Boult aur henery sa itna dar nahi ha jitna is sa

Tail can bat today barring Irfan

Amir used to be decent lower order bat, dont know how well he is doing as a batter sice his return

 

[#GreenRoars]

Elliot to bowl his 9th over.

 

[ZAK]

Elliot the destroyer is back.

Unplayable Eliot

 

[cricfan14]

Survive Elliot please

And our top 3 which costs us T20 matches isn't there. I'm feeling better about this now. Insha'Allah.

 

[hur rizvi]

Boult smiling at Inzi. Blasphemy

 

[Madplayer]

Pakistan would have won the match by now was it not for azhar's defensive tactics.

 

[Saeed]

Babar to score 150 from 130 balls.

 

[MMHS]

The equation is as simple as Babar getting a hundred, but not selfish one - match won.

 

[#GreenRoars]

A ton from Babar can win this game for us.

 

[Abdullah719]

Slower ball by Elliott? Kaise? 2

 

[Madplayer]

50 for babar

 

[razabbas]

50 for babar well player by

Just score 50 more runs and it will be an icing on the cake if you win it for us

 

[m.shah]

Well played babar

 

[hur rizvi]

50 for Babar. Please Kid dont go your cousin's way

 

[LegbreakGoogly]

One of these two should be looking to play till the 50th over and then we could think of chasing it down. . . They should remember the pitch is flat , boundries are short and they are 1 bowler short

 

[ZAK]

50 up for Barab. Keep going bro.

BS. Pakistan was hardly setting the world on fire before Azhar.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Fifty for Babar Azam, well done lad. But you need to hit ton please.

 

[MMHS]

WASP 'll probably show 45% - PAK is just 5 balls behind.

 

[ZAK]

Anderson is back.

I meant in the field. NZ were 99/6.

 

[cricfan14]

Babar you can't relax, you have to keep going!!

 

[hur rizvi]

These young Kids from Pakistan consider throwing away their wickets after 50 an obligation. Let's see how Babar's innings pans out.

 

[JaDed]

Well done Babar.

23% it shows atm

 

[Saeed]

Many teams have comeback against us with a similar score. Our team just isn't up to world standards.

 

[LegendAli]

Looks a good player.

You're confusing him with Sharjeel I bet, I was guilty of the same but I don't blame you they both look identical.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Self destruction anytime

 

[zabalestmsm]

Babar Azam brings positivity to the table unlike the other bunch of losers... Very refreshing to see...
