i dont like misbah going away from stumps and cutting, can easilyedgeit tobrendon or wickets
 
Too much critisism of misbah here. He and hafeez have saved us from another collapse. 8-2 to 128-3. He can accelerate whenever he wants and he's already started now.

YK and Hafeez stopped the collapse. YK then had a brain fart.

Misbah has been frustrating after that. Please don't credit him for what he has not done.

I take it you forgot Younis Khan in btwn, who played a silly shot but atleast Younis finds the gaps, takes the singles, hits the boundaries, when Younis was there we were going well, when Misbah came in he stopped, slowed the run rate down put more pressure on Hafeez and we went from 88-3 in 20th over to 136-3 in 32nd over, with 18 overs remaining even with our big hitters we will not manage 300+ and this is how it will remain all the time even in the World Cup bcoz of silly stupid players like Misbah!
 
Cricinfo is going mad. The score on cricinfo is different to the match. Cricinfo are in front some how lol
 
From Cricinfo--

Shehryar: "Zaffar: Spoke too early i guess. His style is like this.He always begins color blind but then at the end of the innings his aggression is so bright it pierces everything"!

:))
 
Just 17 overs left with Afridi, Razzaq, and Umar Akmal to come

One of these two has to get a move on, preferably Hafeez

I'd like to get 260+
 
Misbah needs to SMASH IT!! Every ball needs to go. Soooo much batting left.
 
You all see how the commentary thread for this match has turned into a Misbah 'Tuk Tuk' thread, expect many more in the World Cup.

He may hit the occasional boundaries and a 6 every so often but only does it either to get to his 50 in 100 balls which is very selfish coz das all he cares about OR when there is only 1 over left not much runs on the board he hits a 6 to get Pakistan to 190 200, if you ask me, that is pathetic mentality for a cricketer who is our TEST captain, so much for his good knowledge on cricket.

Sadly we still need misbah in our line up because of brittleness of our line up ...

You speak like it's a 300+ pitch/conditions. The fact is it's not but I guess Misbah haters won't appreciate his innings due to his unique innings building technique.
 
Misbah takes a LOT of time to settle before scoring anywhere near quick. There's no time whatsoever for the big hitters to get their eye in and start hitting. Simply have to start hitting from the word go!
 
Cricinfo Calvin: "Can't understand why Pakistani fans themselves are pulling Misbah down. He has proved to be a capable and responsible leader who leads from the front. A man like him fully deserves to be in the Pakistani squad if Pakistan is to have a realistic chance of winning the world cup."
