Bhatti is useless with the bowl and useless with the bat.
 
'92 World Cup got us again.

Preserve wickets at the beginning, then slog later to reach 240-260. In bowling, trust your 3 World Class bowlers to get the opposition out.

Trouble is...this is not '92 anymore.

Par score is not 240 any longer as teams have moved way way ahead, there are no World Class bowlers in your line up any more and your sloggers come off once every 5 games.

Other than that, the strategy is perfect.
 
Whole batting line up is to blame for today, bowling even more.

But can anyone tell me what exactly Misbah is trying to do here? Seen this for ages.
Doing what he has done in his entire career ie mohaliing
 
Shehzad could take Malcom Marshall to the cleaners, but it was still a pathetic innings and did nothing for the win. The sooner we realize this overhyping of Shehzad, the better for us.
 
haha hope your leg is fine now

Its better :P but those were desperate times for Sachin fans we demanded an 100 every innings.

haha thats a cool memory i miss those days probably the golden days of cricket! 90s was different than other eras i am not saying it because pak team was much better than but there were u know those charismatic players in every team the talent was there every team had great players even Zimbabwe of that era can compete with the top nations of this era. It's really hard to get out of those memories for those who have seen the crikcet in 90s i mean how can you forget wasim,sachin,saqlain,akhtar,afridi,donald,klusener,lara,anwar,de silva etc all playing in same era at their peaks?

Absolutely Edo Brandes from Zim was soo amazing or Neil Johnson opening the batting and bowling surprisingly amazing i do miss it.The 90's cricket was between bat and ball.
 
Sarfraz is Rahim/Ramdin level wicket-keeper batsman, and people here were comparing him to Dhoni. :)))
 
Younis khan will play again and again ... so he has the opportunity to score runs now otherwise after this world cup....his fans will start hating him
 
Everyone is making fun of Elliot, Just wait for the World Cup to start this Guy will be a monster!!.Trust me. Pakistan has turned many lallu players to world beaters :tahir :broad
 
only 2 overs of milne after this, rest are elliot saudi mccullum boult.
 
bhatti take single, give misbah maximum strike against elliot and co and misbah just go for sixes. no other option.
 
Bhatti is arguably the most useless cricketer on the planet.
 
man, what a waste, should've slept. just found i have a 7:30 AM meeting also!!!
 
Beautiful victory, we lose by 119 runs. Well played Younis Khan, man of the match.
 
FYI I wasn't even around for the 3/4 of the first innings i.e. when NZ were dominating and looking good for 360+
 
Atleast pakistan scored 250 today, so atleast moral victory achieved :misbah
Still India is way ahead when it comes to moral victories :dhoni

Comprehensive win in the end, the game against SA will probably show were we really stand.
 
forget India v Pak,the match i am really looking forward to is NZ vs Aus
Everyone I've talked to has been looking forward to that one. The atmosphere at Eden Park is going to be fantastic, I hope fans give it to Warner and co.
 
Shameful bowling, pathetic fielding and lame batting! typical tripe from pakistan.
 
NZ are no match to australia , pakistan is a pathetic team in any condition and especially in these conditions.
 
Wasn't Pakistan going to drop down to number 8 if they lost both these ODIs?
 
ohh come on!!! Sami in Limited overs when he started was ATG material and would swing it at 150 clicks constantly. Miline ATM is bowling 139-145 as I guess he is tired from bowling the 10 over quota.

Indeed. My initial comparison actually catered to the fact that Sami bowled 150 clicks regularly, but by then the Milne = Sami wave had caught on. :D
