Now Watch Williamson and Guptill chase this down in a breeze. These chaps are just too good in their backyard.
 
One of the most bs 50s I've seen. Still an amazing strike rate too. I hate how modern cricket rewards poor play at times.
 
We dont have any decent Right armer, your statement is obvious but there is nothing that can be done in that regard

No right armer from known pool, but the top 3 bowlers in last domestic is right-armer; one should have been here. Instead, chances are there that PCB 'll replace Rahat with JK.

Hasan Ali will be our next right armer IA.

Sohail khan and Ehsan adil are among the options, but one has been injured and other is just not ready for LOIs
 
It seems like NZ are chasing 200. The ease and comfort of this chase is discomforting as a Pak fan
 
Why Waqar keep selecting Rahat over Anwar?
Anwar>>>Rahat (Batting/bowling/fielding)

Instead of this two trick pony (for NZ - either throw bat that's going away or tickle down to fine leg for anything that's in to body), I would have picked Abbas, Pasha or Hasan Ali any day.
 
Loosing this match will be blessing for us, Waqar will be under pressure to kick Rahat and Irfan. Shehzad, Maqsood and probably Azhar will be kicked out
 
May be saying this early but Pakistan's attack a bit too one dimensional.

Pakistan bowled well early on but weren't able to take wickets.
 
Everyone is toothless apart from amir. A specialist spinner should have been there.
 
We couldn't even win a series in the UAE against a B side NZ team

Surprised people thought we'd win a series in NZ with our current bowling and batting
 
A question I doubt anyone has an answer to.

Why does KW keep spitting on his gloves? not just today he does it all the time, makes me want to slap his face for doing something so foolish.
 
Must give credit to Guptill and Williamson though. Struggled initially against some good quality swing bowling. Were beaten a number of times. But to their credit, they didn't throw their wickets away or got buckled down due to pressure and put the bad balls away. And now they have took the team total over 100 runs within the 17th over without losing a wicket. And with the spinners to come on, this is a solid platform for them..
 
If these 2 stayed till 6 more overs, then pak are losing. A wicket needed desperately

NZ is not too good vs spin. They may lose wickets
 
Dammit man. Tried to keep myself awake but slept in the 1st inns :))
Good to see Babar score, will have to catch highlights of that, but we need wickets now..

Only Amir bowled well, others were pathetic

This attack is the most one dimmesnsional attack ever fielded in ODIs
 
If azhar had any sense he would bring Amir back taking the dl method in view.
 
Pakistan is gonna lose this easily, surprised they managed to score 290, good effort with the bat but not good enough in the end

Nah even Irfan was causing some issues.

KW's has a weakness exposed outside off stump, if you get keep it there, you'll build pressure on him.
 
Azhar's brainless captaincy. There's nothing left in this game but if we are to try to take a wicket, bring on Amir. Azhar is so defensive. Hope he gets sacked after this series but it won't happen
 
Azhar needs to bring Amir. What the hell is he waiting for?

Irfan was the worst i have ever seen him bowl, mid 120s garbage.

I think every one of the top 4 or 5 batsmen in the world does especially Kohli, and Smith when there's a lot of assistance..
 
There's no one for death overs.

There wont be any death overs if the match keeps going as it is. You HAVE to take wickets or the game is over, and amir is the only potential threat to them.
 
I can't understand why the only bowler who's looked like getting wickets is being held back for...

another 6-8 overs, this game will be out of hand
