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

[Gullycricket]

Nooo Abdullah

 

[msb314]

rubbish...

 

[waleed88]

I just dont understand why our batsmen have to hit the next ball after they have already hit one. They never take singles in power play. Its either hit or get out. Rizwan plays 2 fours in the last over and no single. Our running is shambles and these batsmen never put pressure on the fielders.

 

[Darkness]

Abdullah shafique is just not instilling confidence by these top edges

 

[watson367]

Reminds me of the Misbah days. He would be so proud.

 

[uberkoen]

This is exactly why we shouldn't play an inexperienced Shafique. What has he done to secure a place in the playing 11? We hand out debuts like it's free cake.

 

[Afhan Ali]

Haider Ali! Another mediocre and overrated vastly talented player.

 

[shah_1]

Abdullah is another talunt like Haider Ali.

Shame on Misbah ul haq for picking Abdullah without any experience. Misbah is a club level coach

 

[imshally81]

[msb314]

Y on earth batt first here..i am afraid thats end of shafiqs career

its a dead flat wicket - our batsmen are rubbish and incompetent..

 

[Mobashir]

A bit surprised- why should Pakistan bat first here?

Don't see us chasing with this batting line up. But if we can somehow put 160 on the board we might have a chance.
Don't know how we can manage 160 tough.

 

[Ayubhbaloch]

Haider Ali need to be given time and license to play like sehwag

 

[waleed88]

Misbah bhai's team selection paying dividends. We are collapsing again

 

[watson367]

Rizwan dont get out, you need to anchor.

 

[naseem]

Haider doing same mistake again ri8 from national t20... Going too much aggressive at times.....Poor Abdullah ....

 

[Tubs]

I think we laughed at 36/10 a bit too much...

 

[shah_1]

We are minnow team and should accept it

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Haider Ali need to be given time and license to play like sehwag

Yup exactly. Just read some of the comments by our clueless fans who have no vision or insight. He’ll come good

 

[Zeshan547]

There are only two ways our batters know, 1st gear or 4th gear, no middle ground, such a mediocre lot, and this shafiq guy haven't made any favors for himself, all hype for nothing.

 

[uberkoen]

Have we made any changes from the previous game? Please tell me we at least dropped Wahab

 

[Baigel]

Haider Ali! Another mediocre and overrated vastly talented player.

You’re a joke

 

[watson367]

struggling against short ball, whats new?

 

[naseem]

Just needs to get eye in and keep wickets in hand

 

[waleed88]

Rizwan has played around 6-7 dot balls himself. Thats one over where you didnt do anything.. He thinks after playing a boundary he is given a license to chill for the next 3 deliveries

 

[liam26]

Pakistan gonna Pakistan.

 

[Nadeemp]

We are minnow team and should accept it

Rizwan on fire.

 

[uberkoen]

There are only two ways our batters know, 1st gear or 4th gear, no middle ground, such a mediocre lot, and this shafiq guy haven't made any favors for himself, all hype for nothing.

I think you referring to our top 4 players in this starting 11 as 'batsman' is way too generous.

 

[Rana]

Rizwan looking alright today

 

[CleverSir]

Well I'd rather our new and younger players try and fail over the constantly tried and failed players.

 

[angrypathan]

Have we made any changes from the previous game? Please tell me we at least dropped Wahab

Unchanged

 

[watson367]

Hafeez the destroyer on the crease, no worries.

 

[Nadeemp]

Abdullah looks out of his depths.

 

[Abdullah Rabbani]

Why this misbah iblees told to kids to hit on every ball and rizwan to accumulate

 

[Ahmed216]

We are minnow team and should accept it

I have

 

[uberkoen]

You’re a joke

He's right though. Haidar Ali. Shafique. Wahab. Hafeez. Khushdil. Faheem. We are playing a pathetic team. They would struggle to get into Zimbabwe or even Ireland teams yet we are playing them

 

[Mamoon]

Hmmm, looks like we will have to stop our bhangra over India’s capitulation for a day. However, don’t worry, we can resume tomorrow and continue our bhangra until we get thrashed in the first Test.

 

[Nadeemp]

Come on Pakistan. Can I get a takbeer.

 

[Darkness]

Btw just opinion shouldnt young batsman be debuted on home pitch?

 

[msb314]

We cant afford a slow start from Hafeez..

 

[Jeetlodil]

Haider Ali need to be given time and license to play like sehwag

Not even 1% of Sehwag is Ali. Sehwag had a tight hand on his bat. Ali's bat shaked like a thread in a wind.

 

[imshally81]

Should be a wide... Bad umpiring. ..

 

[Nadeemp]

Wahab, Abdullah dont belong in the team.

 

[watson367]

I can hit a few boundaries, Misbah mujhe debut karwa do.

 

[Slog]

Haider looked like a Tullay baaz

 

[Nadeemp]

Can i get a takbeer.

 

[Jeetlodil]

Hmmm, looks like we will have to stop our bhangra over India’s capitulation for a day. However, don’t worry, we can resume tomorrow and continue our bhangra until we get thrashed in the first Test.

India's capitulation is once in a decade, maybe even this century. Bhangra for the ages. World will remember , generations will remember

 

[naseem]

No idea why we can't pick Sharjeel atleast 4 t20s....Rizwan is not for t20

 

[Zeshan547]

Last time it was 20/4 in four this time 20/ 2 in three great progress.

 

[Rana]

Rizwan back to his useless self

 

[Nadeemp]

Where is moota sharjeel

 

[Ayubhbaloch]

Yup exactly. Just read some of the comments by our clueless fans who have no vision or insight. He’ll come good

Pitch is different not like aisan ground. even indians failed yesterday it doesn't mean now selectors will drop whole india team.

haider ali and abdullah shafiq deserve long run there will be failures but we need to be careful and patient.

 

[imshally81]

Test cricket is a real cricket... T20 is just a fun... Nothing serious...
#36

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

Our coaching and overall game awareness while batting is pathetic. 4/6 or dot what kind of cricket is that

 

[uberkoen]

Good shot from Rizwan

 

[msb314]

Rizwan mediocre as always..

 

[watson367]

much needed 4.

 

[imshally81]

We missed fakhar here too

 

[Energy]

Disappointed with both Haider and Shafique. Rizwan has played a couple of good strokes so far. I'm against his inclusion in LOs but the hacks are doing jack.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Like I said in the other thread they wouldn't make any changes and they didn't

Know these lot too well

 

[imshally81]

Hafeez seems clueless in foreign conditions...

 

[Ayubhbaloch]

We missed fakhar here too

we are missing babar azam no one else.

 

[Rana]

Hafeez too casual

 

[Baigel]

Like I said in the other thread they wouldn't make any changes and they didn't

Know these lot too well

And the changes you’d make?

 

[msb314]

Haider looked like a Tullay baaz

Need to play Imam as an opener in T20's..

 

[Darkness]

Would fakhar have made a difference here?

 

[Nadeemp]

Rizwaan for ministry of railways

 

[imshally81]

Too many dots in Rizwan innings...

 

[Zeshan547]

Pitch is different not like aisan ground. even indians failed yesterday it doesn't mean now selectors will drop whole india team.

haider ali and abdullah shafiq deserve long run there will be failures but we need to be careful and patient.

Haider i can understand, but shafiq is more suited for longer formats from what we have seen in his career in domestics. Haider is special talent and need very long rope.

 

[Afhan Ali]

Hmmm, looks like we will have to stop our bhangra over India’s capitulation for a day. However, don’t worry, we can resume tomorrow and continue our bhangra until we get thrashed in the first Test.

What is your opinion on rubbish talented player Abdullah and haider?

 

[Rana]

The bare minimum will do Rizwan.

 

[watson367]

Hafeez dehan nal.

 

[Ayubhbaloch]

Need to play Imam as an opener in T20's..

Hahahah seriouslly man

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Apologising for not taking that catch this is what it's like wow lol

 

[Mobashir]

Hmmm, looks like we will have to stop our bhangra over India’s capitulation for a day. However, don’t worry, we can resume tomorrow and continue our bhangra until we get thrashed in the first Test.

Why do you have bring India in a Pakistan vs NZ match? No indian in the world (and they are 1.5 billion) has defended them as much as you have after that 36.

Get over it!

 

[IAJ]

How tall is this guy? What a giant!

 

[imshally81]

Dropped?

 

[Nadeemp]

What In swing bowling Jamison.

 

[Rana]

Bang average bowler being hyped to the moon Jamieson

 

[marlonbrowndo]

That was a relatively easy catch by guptills standards

 

[Madplayer]

Whats with this blind slogging by Haider
