New Zealand v Pakistan | Match 33, World Cup | Edgbaston | June 26, 2019 | Pakistan innings

[BleedGreen]

Get a couple more boundaries. Dont leave it till the end

 

[pakistanisgreat]

ma sha allah great going.

 

[FanofCricket]

Pakistan deserve a chicken dinner today.

 

[King-Misbah]

He was miles better captain than Kane today in every facet of the game but your regional bias won't let you see it. Not my fault.

No regional bias here. Safraz was too defensive and didn't go for the kill when NZ were 80/5. Stop being sensitive.

 

[Madplayer]

Umpire is throwing last roll of the dice to help the Kiwis

Exactly. Ridiculous umpiring.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

being very cautious ........ I think

 

[Afhan Ali]

Getting nervous again

 

[FanofCricket]

two misses for haris sohail

 

[Pakistani Pace]

A lot of people never used to rate Haris highly

 

[Hasan123]

Come on Haris. Don't get lazy.

 

[BleedGreen]

31 from 34 needed

 

[barah_admi]

Not easy
But very unlike Pakistan.They have gritted it out MashaAllah.

Who was that Aussie tennis player who said "sometimes you have to win ugly"?

Pakistan did not make it ugly but they were gritty and hard.

 

[Ahmed216]

[MENTION=79064]MMHS[/MENTION] has babar the boy become a man after this inning? or just another false dawn. I think this inning has been as good as anyone while chasing given the circumstances.

As a young batsman you want to finish important games for ur side and i am sure this innings will give bobby a lot of confidence and self belief going forward

 

[Madplayer]

Yaar haris no pressure boy. Easy easy. Leg side pe maar ek.

 

[Jeetlodil]

Not easy
But very unlike Pakistan.They have gritted it out MashaAllah.

wait. It is still not over

 

[WebGuru]

Wow they are discussing Jahangir Khan!

 

[BleedGreen]

:50 for haris

 

[FanofCricket]

for haris.

 

[Hasan123]

50 for Haris.

 

[saeed5646]

Nz have saved atleast 20 runs .Brilliant fielding side

 

[Zeshan547]

India you better don't screw us by letting Poms win, If India win it will be win win situation for both India and Pak, Pak can get to semis and India will not have to worry about the pre tournament favorites. and mean easier team tu best in Semi and final.

 

[cricketfan11]

Once Haris gets his 50 he will surely accelerate. Hoping to have a quick finish to this.

 

[Justcrazy]

Babaar 9 away from a hundred

 

[BleedGreen]

101-run partnership

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

did he just make his fifty?

 

[Green Patriot]

Well deserved 50.
Well played.
Onto Babar's century now.

 

[Invincible Gujjar]

Haris is very very special player.

 

[Mehndi155]

Haris is so smiley kind likeable guy

 

[Green Patriot]

100 run partnership.

 

[Madplayer]

Haris has played 2 crucial batting innings for Pakistan in knock out games now in world cup.

Most by any Pakistan batsman??

 

[DawoodChaudhry]

Your passion is admirable.
Tall order though as Pakistan progressing to the top 4 depends on them firstly winning vs Bang and Afg plus England losing their next matches and Bang, WI and SL losing too.
So they will need a lot of luck to progress.

Also, it is one thing to reach the semis (difficult as it is) but can you imagine Pak taking on Australia or India in such a big match........it will have to be a very different Pakistani team.

sir thank u for the v gd reply i apprecite ur kind words but i think if pk qualify the boys can win vs india or australia we have the confidence and inshallah like 92 wc history will be again the same inshallah ameen

 

[zn426]

50 is done, century partnership is done, just Babar's century left and the win left. Bring it home, gentlemen.

 

[Syed1]

Ok just smash us home now please.... leken dekh bhaal ke

 

[saeed5646]

One big over will do it nicely

 

[Mehndi155]

Shot

 

[BleedGreen]

A majestic from haris!

23 needed from 30

 

[Hasan123]

This is why we wanted to see Haris and Babar play together.

 

[FanofCricket]

from haris

 

[shah_1]

Haris is so much class

 

[Syed1]

Haris has played 2 crucial batting innings for Pakistan in knock out games now in world cup.

Most by any Pakistan batsman??

Fakhar played 3-4 on the trot in CT

 

[mrtaim3]

Shottttttttt!!!

 

[ARK Rafay]

Man it's a day to remember. Two great players. Haris and Babar showing their class

 

[Invincible Gujjar]

Shabba haris veere.another amazing shot

 

[castortroy]

HS timing is up there with Hafeez

 

[saeed5646]

Haris is awesome against pace .

 

[FanofCricket]

Now india must beat england

 

[Slog]

Babar Better get that century

 

[Sunny_majoka]

Brilliant

 

[Green Patriot]

Haris

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

Good that is what good partnerships do .......... win matches. I think Babar is class act but Haris has played very well.

 

[MMHS]

Haris's innings actually is better than Babar's one between this partnership. Obviously, Babar's over all out put should earn him MoM, but Haris actually kept PAK's nose ahead all through.

 

[saeed5646]

Today pak win will put more pressure on eng

 

[saabir]

238 is like 260s against New Zealand. Their fielding is excellent. This pair of Babar and Haris should bat together quite often. Very pleasing to eyes and looks effortless while batting . Hafeez should bat at 5

 

[zn426]

Now india must beat england

If the pitch spins like it did today, then India will destroy England.

 

[Madplayer]

Fakhar played 3-4 on the trot in CT

You are right but i am talking about world cups. I dont recall anyone playing more than 1 match winning innings for Pakistan in world cups. At least not in recent times.

 

[BleedGreen]

Babar on 94

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

Century for Babar Insha Allah and then it can be a complete win.

 

[Slog]

If we win this Pakistan would have beaten 3 best sides of the tournament so far and also run Australia very close (in all fairness if we hadn’t dropped a gazillion chances we would have won that comfortably)

Sorry two*

 

[fawad_wellwisher]

Not upping the run rate

 

[Jeetlodil]

The 92 comparison although spooky will give confidence to players in tricky situations.

 

[cricketfan11]

Haris's innings actually is better than Babar's one between this partnership. Obviously, Babar's over all out put should earn him MoM, but Haris actually kept PAK's nose ahead all through.

Agreed. Babar actually looked like he was choking at one point. Haris is the one who really turned things around.

 

[Syed1]

Come on yaar just finish it already

 

[FanofCricket]

babar really deserves a hunderd

 

[JaDed]

The good thing about inform PCT now is they still have 2 more matches before semis to lose form, [MENTION=138254]Syed1[/MENTION] KW always takes risks with his captaincy, it didn’t pay off today as i he assumed last 6 overs would be crucial also PCT batsmen attacked in last 10 overs..

 

[Slog]

If the pitch spins like it did today, then India will destroy England.

It will be on different pitch tho

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Watching this Pakistan side, I think this Pakistan side can beat India

 

[Madplayer]

Wide ball finally. And great leave by Haris. This is what a seasoned batsman is like. Not like Fakhar.

 

[Syed1]

Watching this Pakistan side, I think this Pakistan side can beat India

Skill wise we are good but we have a mental block against India

 

[Hasan123]

Comfortable stuff.

 

[FanofCricket]

what a pull shot from haris

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

Finish them

 

[light]

Not upping the run rate

Bro take the point. Forget about the RR for now. It all depends on england at the end of the day either way.

 

[FanofCricket]

from babar

 

[castortroy]

Watching this Pakistan side, I think this Pakistan side can beat India

They can but its all in their head when they play India.

Mental midgets when it comes to Indis

 

[Madplayer]

Bobby on 99 wowwww

 

[BleedGreen]

Babar moves to 99!

14 required from 24

 

[Sunny_majoka]

Babar... Meri jaan

 

[JaDed]

Hopefully Indian think tank is watch Harris..

 

[saeed5646]

This crowd deserves Pakistan win.Amazing scenes

 

[Hasan123]

Babar on 99.
