New Zealand v Pakistan | 1st T20I | Auckland | 18 December | Pakistan innings

[imshally81]

Another one 6

 

[angrypathan]

Sobers you beauty

 

[ARK Rafay]

Again. Man the little glimpses of timing in his batting is hard to ignore.

 

[Omer Baloch]

OMG Lord faheem, the timing.

 

[D/DAhmed]

Faheem showcasing some incredible hitting here

 

[Nadeemp]

Sobers on fire

 

[Rana]

NZ are there for the taking. This is an ok total

If we get Guptil and Neesham early

 

[Snowflake]

He’s doing a Tewatia here!!!!

What is a Tewatia?

 

[Cric_lover4487]

I don’t root for the other team but the mediocrity of Pakistan disgusts me.

It looks like Pak didn’t played any practice game. Terrible flop batting display vs bounce by top order. Soft dismissals especially Hafeez’s ruined my mood.

 

[imshally81]

Dropped

 

[Nadeemp]

Can i get a takbeer

 

[watson367]

Faheem Stokes

 

[Rana]

How many short balls are you allowed per over??

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

NZ in all sorts. Momentum shifting

 

[PakPremi]

Thanks to sensible inni g by Shadab Pak have something to build on in the slog overs.

 

[naseem]

Yes thats how u treat a newbie.....just school him out of the game.....

 

[imshally81]

Outt

 

[Rana]

Sobers play last 9 balls

 

[Greenstorm]

Harris should come in now but dumb management will send Shaheen.

 

[Mir jibran]

Can i get a takbeer

Allah-u-Akbar

 

[Snowflake]

Come on, Wahab! What are you doing?!!

 

[Justcrazy]

136 . 7

11 balls to go

 

[Rana]

He bowled 3 short balls in a row...what’s the rule?

 

[watson367]

Need atleast 150.

 

[Mir jibran]

150 karlo kisi tarah

 

[Forward Defensive Push]

Without Babar our top order is useless

 

[Cric_lover4487]

No yorkers, short pitch bowling lol... this is a pathetic attack

It feels like they want Pak to score some runs so that they could slog sixes and have fun in their innings.

 

[imshally81]

444

 

[Mir jibran]

Shabaaaaa rana saaab

 

[Rana]

Try pushing for 155-160 boys come on!

 

[Hyperion66]

This is a great comeback from a terribly hopeless position. Credit where it is due. Shadab played a captain's knock. Pak could actually swap their tail with the top order and expect better results.

 

[Snowflake]

Without Babar our top order is useless

A little late to the party?

 

[Greenstorm]

If only Faheem can work his game against short pitch bowling.

 

[Rana]

4 short balls in a row

 

[waleed88]

This trundling by NZ )

 

[Mamoon]

Santner needs to improve his captaincy. Poor bowling changes allowed Pakistan to score 20-25 more than they should have.

 

[naseem]

Can Faheem hit a few more....anything around 160 would b fighting

 

[NauV]

Though he wasted an entire over of Santner, this is Faheems best innings for Pak in LOI

 

[watson367]

rana saab

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Good comeback. From 79/6 to 140 with 8 balls to spare is impressive. Pakistan favorites now on this wicket.

 

[Justcrazy]

Four

Pakistan would be pleased with the effort, from where they were after 12 overs

 

[Rana]

stupid single! Faheem needed to play the whole last over! How do you teach these idiots some match awareness?

 

[watson367]

couldve easily been 180+ had the top order played sensibly.

 

[Snowflake]

Lol! They really took a single on the last ball
oh boys )

 

[watson367]

stupid single! Faheem needed to play the whole last over! How do you teach these idiots some match awareness?

any run is good, what if he gets out?

 

[Rayyman]

Look at NZ bowlers. Really meetha attack. Imad and Faheem will destroy them at the death.

What did I say lol

 

[imshally81]

66

 

[Mir jibran]

Shaheeeeeeeeeen

 

[waleed88]

Good comeback. From 79/6 to 140 with 8 balls to spare is impressive. Pakistan favorites now on this wicket.

Bro )

 

[Rana]

Wow. 2 more sixes and 160 is there

 

[Greenstorm]

Harris should come in now but dumb management will send Shaheen.

I'll take that back.

 

[JibranAnsari]

faheem should have had the strike.

 

[watson367]

Ssa!

 

[Snowflake]

Lol! They really took a single on the last ball
oh boys )

I take that back. Sorry, SA

 

[Rana]

Excellent single Sobers!!

 

[watson367]

Proper lapaita!

 

[imshally81]

Out

 

[Rana]

Very well batted Faheem. Massive respect

 

[Snowflake]

Oh man! Needed that to be a six!

 

[imshally81]

150 up

 

[Rana]

Come on Shaheen get us to 160

 

[watson367]

Another six come on Afridi.

 

[sharmaji]

Excellent comeback by Pakistan. Good job by Faheem.

 

[Mir jibran]

Rana saab i hope this is the turn around we all were waiting for

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

Just came back from friday prayers and saw 150 on board. Incredible comeback but may not be enough.

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

This is not a bad score guys, with the bowlers Pakistan have and the scar Pakistan caused on kiwis during world cup, I have a feeling Pakistan has got this

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Bro )

These conditions should help the bowlers.

 

[Rana]

I don’t understand

How can you bowl 3-4 bouncer length balls an over?

 

[Justcrazy]

149 . 9

3 balls left

 

[naseem]

Santner needs to improve his captaincy. Poor bowling changes allowed Pakistan to score 20-25 more than they should have.

I thought he was best....oh my bad.....he couldn't control the glorified tai lenders.......

 

[JibranAnsari]

Should be a cruise for NZ.

Pakistan will need to something special to win this one.

 

[watson367]

Rauf come on baita

 

[waleed88]

I don’t understand

How can you bowl 3-4 bouncer length balls an over?

I don't understand how they can't bowl yorkers. A good team would've made them pay

 

[Rana]

Could have got 170 here easily.

NZ should chase this easily

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

I hope Pakistani don’t go overboard bowling short balls to NZ. It will play into their hands.

 

[watson367]

154 is the target

 

[imshally81]

Still very easy for NZ... We are 50 runs short...

 

[Snowflake]

Looks like NZ are granted 6 bouncers per over

 

[Justcrazy]

After long time Faheem did something with the bat.

 

[naseem]

Well played Faheem Shadab ...
