haha where you was at that day care to share if nothing personal :p

Haha it was in my uncle's farm house i used like Afridi's hair style a lot in those days and Saqlain was my favourite bowler but Sachin was like my hero so when he got out at 95 i went and kicked a tree(stupid thing to do).
 
yes, thats why he is made in china kohli, can't expect him to bat like ABCD. but still think a bit OTT to call that knock useless.

It was useless in context, and so far Hafeez is playing a useless knock as well.
 
I miss Pakistan playing exciting cricket amazing 90's i think Ijaz ahmed Inzi Anwar could had chased the score on this ground for sure plus Wasim Saqlain would had never let it come here.

you cannot chase 370 in 25 overs... if you keep RRR around 10 for last 10 overs, then you are giving akmal,afridi,sarfraz a very decent chance of getting the target with nz bowling under pressure on this small ground.
 
this is the intent Pakistan should bat with all the time not just when they are chasing more than 350.

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?
 
The Pak are able to bat like this because of the ground. One of the side is only 59 meters.
Also pitch is a very nice to bat. Not much for the bowlers.
 
Meanwhile now it's a 20-20 game. 10 an over, 8 wickets in hand, small grounds, useless bowling, flat pitch. Who will step up?
 
Hafeez consumed 14 overs and scoring at below run a ball.... when u need above 7.5 RPO

he needs to lift up the rate now ...if he was playing blocking game in the beginning then now take the risk
 
Have to say, sort of need Misbah there to make sure Hafeez doesn't run himself out in retarded fashion.

He knows when to run and not to.

Hafeez exhausted after 84 deliveries, sums up the fitness of our players.

Remember wasim waqar aqib saqi getting wickets all of a sudden even when defending low totals when it looks like a victory on plate for other teams!
 
Vettori showing how much we are missing Hafeez's bowling.

10 economical overs are worth their weight in gold in ODIs today.

Without him, we are conceding 30-40 runs more per innings on average.
 
maaan. hafeez knock starting to look even more useless than shehzad... didn't even run 3, fitness level, can't compete with misbah. just go off the field.
 
this hafeez knock is starting to look more and more like that younis hundered.
 
Just the right target to get the batsmen in the positive frame of mind. Need to replace Younis with Maqsood and err replace the whole bowling lineup lol
 
Imoressed with the strike rotation ins this partnership
 
10 rr required and they are making 5 singles per over wow just wow
 
Hafeez clearing his bowling and Someone half decent replacing Junaid are essential Pakistan want to save their faces in WC from shame
 
Pakistan taking the Power Play.

Maybe they should have waited for Afridi??? :13:
 
with hafeez injury running was a problem anyway and tells hafeez that forget hundered you gotta slog
 
Hafeez played the most selfish innings in the context of the match, and got out at the worst possible time.

Now defend him !
 
To me it was an average knock by hafeez... didnt play according to situation... he himself created panic for himself by not rotating the strike even after field restrictions were over.
