New Zealand vs Pakistan | 2nd ODI | Saxton Oval | Jan 9, 2018 | New Zealand Innings

I hope so, we should be quite confident after that recovery.

Wasn't there some statistic about us consistently restricting oppositions to under 240..
 
Amir needs to give us a good start by getting big wickets.
 
We need to take early wickets. If Munro and Guptill are there for more than 5 overs the game is only heading one way.
 
NZ’s game to lose. But you can never rule out Pak’s bowling. So hoping for a good contest with Pakistan winning of course.
 
Below par score but the momentum is with Pakistan. We need two bowlers to perform as the Hasan and Shadab did with the ball. It may well be them two.

It wont be easy for NZ, this is for sure.
 
going to watch the first 20 mins, have to sleep, hopefully it will be a good sleep with at least 2 or 3 wickets down
 
246/9 is a good total, just wish we took Danny Morrison on a bit more, but good job on denting Dipak Patel's figures. Just have to get Martin Crowe out early, but that's what Wasim is for.

Your posts are incredibly lame, at some level deep down you must know that surely.

i see what you are trying to do..
 
Great comeback from Pakistan momentum is on our side, and we are going to crush through New Zealand to win this one!
 
I had given up hope and stopped watching... But pleasantly surprised that the boys put up a fight. Sadly this score isn't even par... Expect NZ to chase it down inside 45 overs. Our only hope is that Amir, Hasan and Shadab all have excellent games with the ball.

Wapis aajao :amir3
 
The catch by Faheem reminded me of Rahat in the World Cup.

Faheem with slightly better technique...
 
Rumman needs to deliver now, should hopefully be more at ease with Munro out of the way and bowling to two right-handers.
 
What happened to rumman pace he used to bowl 140 and now around 132-135

He isn't comfortable in controlling the new ball - is instructed to sacrifice pace to keep it at spot. In his 2nd spell I expect him to reach 140k.
 
Who is the guy at back-ward point; should have stopped Sarfu.
 
Streams back on boysss




Lets have some kiwi karhai tonight
 
Boring Cricket from NZ batsman, they should get out if they don’t intend to score.
 
Who is the guy at back-ward point; should have stopped Sarfu.
Meanwhile Hafeez is giving easy singles at Square Leg. Nowhere to hide him but he shouldn’t be at that crucial position.
 
So its because of elbow injury thats why rumman struggling a bit
 
Hasan survived there, in Asian grounds, he would have been limping now.
 
who was the fielder who did not back up and gave away 4 runs?
 
Ok now im badly missing junaid control and i wish we have usman khan here rumman is really struggling if he was not fit why selectors picked him we could have gone with some other pacer? Now we have only yamin as back up

Yamin is an ideal fast-bowler. :inzi
 
Yes, we are sometimes hard on Junaid, but i feel he is a key part of our pace attack. Need him back ASAP.
 
This guy Rumman should thank that he didn't play in Jayasuriya era lol He would have smashed him for six sixes.
 
Really garbage is this rumman trundler raees should be dumped as soon as possible
 
Wahab in spite of brainless bowling can be more potent than this guy. Maybe he does well in patches. But is he Pakistan's long term solution
 
Nowadays, the pace attack has to be able to consistantly operate at 140+ kph. England had only 1 baller that could ball that pace, and they got smashed. Rumman needs to get his pace back or go home.
 
Inzi what have you done? atleast should have selected one more pacer!
 
I guess the end from which Raees and Faheem are bowling is against the wind and Amir is bowling with the wind.
 
Bowling against the wind makes hell of a difference. And that os one of the things to consider in NZ.
 
This is how you play after losing a wicket early on

But what if you don't lose the wicket too early, and instead the openers do tuk-tuk :azhar2 :imam before getting out and then your #3 bats like a #11 :babar with Hafeez the next batsman? :hafeez

Now that's an impossible scenario to deal with.
