New Zealand v Pakistan | 2nd T20I | Hamilton | 20 December | Pakistan innings

[shariqnoor]

Just don't get why Pakistan bats first. Again 40 runs short here. Minnow teams have better chances of winning batting 2nd than 1st.

 

[Firebat]

We’re gonna finish with a worse score than last match

 

[waleed88]

Misbah sent a message from the dressing room to start going for it )

 

[imshally81]

Great bowling

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

Muddled thinking today. Emphasis on preservation rather than assault.

 

[watson367]

lol why did we bat first again?

 

[imshally81]

Sixx

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

Hafeez slowed down at the end. Not good.

 

[imshally81]

Another edge and 4444

 

[Mir jibran]

Shabaash one more sixer plz

 

[Shafi]

Played much better but score will be almost same.

 

[Rana]

Hafeez can’t get a hundred

 

[uberkoen]

89..

2 Balls left.

 

[watson367]

2 more sixes plz.

 

[shariqnoor]

Hafeez wow

 

[imshally81]

666

 

[Rana]

99*

Respect!

 

[Mir jibran]

Take a bow professor

 

[watson367]

shezzy's record is safe

 

[ask_analyse_act]

Now again in the last t20 expectedly will have another set of new openers for Pakistan.

Likely Rizwan and hussain talat and haider ali pushed to no. 3. Abdullah Shafique dropped

This is what Misbah Waqar are famous for. Shuffle batting order every match. 3 t20 3 new opening pairs.

 

[waleed88]

Shehzad biting his nails

 

[imshally81]

99*
What a innings

 

[Green Patriot]

99 not out. Damn.
Hafeez really deserved that 100. What a wonderful contribution.

 

[Firebat]

Prof finishes on 99

Wow what an innings, deserved a hundred. Let down so bad by the batsmen at the other end

 

[marlonbrowndo]

He really deserved a ton

 

[uberkoen]

1 run short of that century!

 

[shamaan]

Take a bow hafeez total class

 

[sindhiboy]

Poor hafeez. He has been a mammoth in t20

 

[watson367]

universe boss missed out on a well deserved 100.

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

Hafeez slowed down at the end. Not good.

Spoke too soon

Well done Professor

 

[Rana]

Runs on the board

Imad should bowl 4 overs in a row

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Oh man 99

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

What an innings. Huge respect Professor.

 

[ARK Rafay]

Hard luck. Excellent innings Professor sahab.

 

[Aman]

Glad Hafeez didn't get a ton, he had some good shots but a lot of fortune.

 

[Omer2002]

Well done saved us from.embarassment honestly. No way can you defend this on this ground mis hit and goes for six..

 

[cric_4life]

Hafeez u r a superstar

 

[taqi]

Shadab, Khushdil and Faheem wasted 10 balls this score could have been 180 easily

 

[ask_analyse_act]

Take a bow professor

 

[msb314]

Brilliant by Hafeez!

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

From Cricinfo
This is the second highest individual score in Pakistan T20I cricket history

What's the first?

 

[watson367]

Glad Hafeez didn't get a ton, he had some good shots but a lot of fortune.

t20 cricket is all about fortune, he played a gem stop hating.

 

[uberkoen]

I don't think we have a decent enough total on the board specially with the likes of Wahab and Shadab in our bowling line up.

 

[shamaan]

Proberly about 10 runs short need to take all the catches

 

[MMHS]

Well played Hafeez. But the wicket looks like a belter, and the boundary is tiny. Still 163 is much better from that start.

rockstar ahmed shehzad

 

[Usman Chadda]

Hafeez deserved a ton here. Looked a different class compared to the rest.

We are 40 runs below par here though. NZ will bash this total out of existence.

 

[Aman]

t20 cricket is all about fortune, he played a gem stop hating.

He was dropped 3-4 times..

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

I hope Wahab doesn't spoil the match for Pakistan like he did last match

 

[Slim]

Hafeez is pure class! I have to say i am supremely disappointed with the "youngstas". Cant blame Misbah/Waqar here when your players are playing utter tosh. Thankyou Hafeez, you show once again you are a man amongst boys!

 

[JibranAnsari]

not enough runa on the board again.

The young ones didnt take time to apply themselves

[cric_4life]

Great inning by the professor. deserved that hundred. Stats are ruthless

 

[Shoaibbtt]

Always a pain when you finish on 99*

 

[Aman]

Should chase this but Pakistan will make this close with their bowling line up.

 

[Shafi]

Idiot Khusdil wasted Hafeez's 100

 

[Adnan_Ilyas]

Man Hafeez is a beast,what a innings. Only if Babar was there.

 

[naseem]

40 year old Hafeez continues to prove he is more talented than PP hyped youngsters.

40 yr old proving he can score more than 36 runs single handedly #36allout

 

[BakuGM]

I hope Wahab doesn't spoil the match for Pakistan like he did last match

Why is Wahab playing? Why couldn't the team management try Hasnain on these hard pitches? I just think we have the most brainless/useless Head coach in international cricket.

 

[msb314]

160 is impossible here

Never say never

 

[naseem]

Hafeez deserve 2 hundreds...imo one in eng and one here

 

[naseem]

180 would have been good...hopefully youngsters will learn and Rizwan sahab will take rest

 

[Nadeemp]

I will eat my words. That was a class innings

 

[Snowflake]

He was dropped 3-4 times..

The only drop was the one at square leg. The ones that the keeper couldn't hold on to would go the batsman's way 9/10 times and Boult had no chance to grab the one off his own bowling. So, yeah, stop hating.

 

[Snowflake]

Idiot Khusdil wasted Hafeez's 100

Now imagine if Khaush or Rizwan had played 10 balls less.

 

[Rayyman]

Professor batted beautifully!

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

So many free loaders in the team, only sure place I see are Hafeez, Babar, Imad Wasim, Afridi and maybe Rauf
