New Zealand vs Pakistan | 3rd ODI | Dunedin | Jan 13, 2018 | New Zealand innings

[KingKhanWC]

Bring back Amir for another burst

 

[Aman]

100 up after 23 overs.

Felt far slower than that.

100 off 143 actually doesn't seem bad with how much we've struggled.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Taylor is getting runs easy here. Get him out.

 

[MoJoJoJo]

sun is out while someone here said it started drizzling

 

[Adnan_Ilyas]

Good start by Ross Taylor feel the pressure lifting a bit

 

[Arsalan Pro]

Malik into the attack for the first time in this series

 

[Usman Chadda]

100 up after 23 overs.

Felt far slower than that.

100 off 143 actually doesn't seem bad with how much we've struggled.

If Pakistan get Taylor early here, NZ will be in deep trouble with a struggling KW at one end.

 

[QalandarFan]

Shoaib Malik to bowl, interesting.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Malik having a bowl

 

[Syed1]

Shaba Malko

 

[Aman]

If Pakistan get Taylor early here, NZ will be in deep trouble with a struggling KW at one end.

Nah, we bat deep.

Usually even with the top order fails at home, we have the lower order which steps up.

It's weird, when we have a good start they usually fail. But when we're in trouble they tend to step up, make good contribution and get us to a good score.

 

[Arsalan Pro]

Good start

 

[Rayyman]

100 up after 23 overs.

Felt far slower than that.

100 off 143 actually doesn't seem bad with how much we've struggled.

Don't think NZ are getting lucky today. Especially with the awful middle-order they have.

 

[BaankeJi]

Only one newZealander poster out there [MENTION=132954]Aman[/MENTION] and all pakistani posters making the life difficult for him

Good comment. Let's go a little bit easy.

 

[imshally81]

Great bowling by malik

 

[Usman Chadda]

Nah, we bat deep.

Usually even with the top order fails at home, we have the lower order to get us to a decent score.

It's weird, when we have a good start they usually fail. But when we're in trouble they tend to step up and make good contributions.

The likes of Nicholls and Santner will find it difficult to get going, on this pitch. Taylor is the one quality batter I'm afraid of.

 

[Arsalan Pro]

 

[QalandarFan]

Don't think NZ are getting lucky today. Especially with the awful middle-order they have.

Rain can't save them today either.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Poor captaincy here, Taylor is the best player of spin for NZ.

 

[MoJoJoJo]

projected score is 210... but if we dont take wickets, 250,60 still on the cards

 

[Arsalan Pro]

Four on the last ball spoils a tight over

 

[Arham_PakFan]

 

[Aman]

The likes of Nicholls and Santner will find it difficult to get going, on this pitch. Taylor is the one quality batter I'm afraid of.

It doesn't matter if they score heavily.

If two of them score 50s at a decent pace and the others hit quickfire 20s, we'll get a good score.

It's a simple game really, people tend to overthink it and underrate the value of all round contributions in a batting innings. You don't need the top order to all score to get a good total.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Nah, we bat deep.

Usually even with the top order fails at home, we have the lower order which steps up.

It's weird, when we have a good start they usually fail. But when we're in trouble they tend to step up, make good contribution and get us to a good score.

Your lower order is vastly overrated. Nicholls is good but the rest are nothing special.

 

[Adnan_Ilyas]

We really nees wickets

 

[Rayyman]

Rain can't save them today either.

Rain didn't save them in the first couple games. They would've obliterated us either way.

 

[Arsalan Pro]

Another four

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Good over ruined. Dammit

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Good shot

 

[The cricket enthusiast]

Pakistan need to keep KW on strike as much as possible

pak will have atleast 3 williamson like innings

 

[Arsalan Pro]

NZ starting to get some runs

 

[MoJoJoJo]

pakistan is loosing the grip slowly..

 

[Arsalan Pro]

Need a wicket here

 

[castortroy]

Seriously Williamson loves pak bowling

 

[Usman Chadda]

Poor line from Hasan.

 

[Rayyman]

Good comment. Let's go a little bit easy.

Sorry who are you?

 

[Arsalan Pro]

7 of the Hasan over

 

[Sirris]

Wicket coming soon!

 

[Rana]

Hassan really not finding that form that has been great for him

 

[Aman]

Pitched outside on first look.

 

[imshally81]

 

[Arsalan Pro]

 

[Adnan_Ilyas]

Whats happening to Hasan? Our star bowler

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Given

Williamson reviews

 

[The cricket enthusiast]

Hassan really not finding that form that has been great for him

he doesnt seems like looking for wickets at all like he used to.

 

[MoJoJoJo]

good bowling from pak but not a good long term sign for us.. u wont get these kind of two paced wickets everyday.. but when the pitches are flat, we become completely out of sorts..

 

[KingKhanWC]

Pitched outside?

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Not out

 

[Aman]

Really was a terrible call.

Never looked out live.

 

[Adnan_Ilyas]

Is he out??

 

[imshally81]

Should be umpire call....

 

[Usman Chadda]

This umpire is ridiculously bad. Gave Babar an absolute howler in the first game.

 

[castortroy]

He will score another ton

 

[KingKhanWC]

There is no bat, alien hotspot!

 

[Aman]

Should be umpire call....

Dude that never looked out.

You need half the ball to pitch in line to cover for the margin of error I believe.

 

[MoJoJoJo]

good tight bowling from malick.. on these sorta wickets, even fakhar will bowl well..

 

[Arsalan Pro]

Not Out!!!

 

[KingKhanWC]

Clearly not out sat here in England, silly umpire

 

[Sadevdesai]

So far, in this Match, NZ has not runaway .... yet !!! Hope we can keep it that way. ,!!

 

[imshally81]

Is malik chucking?

 

[marlonbrowndo]

So close

 

[MoJoJoJo]

the umpire who gave babar out was a srilankan.. but this one was given by richard illingworth

 

[babajee]

Isn’t this a bit like a UAE track?

 

[Adnan_Ilyas]

Williamson will hit a 100 the way it looks like it

 

[Arsalan Pro]

Amir returns

 

[Aman]

Excellent fielding.

 

[Syed1]

the umpire who gave babar out was a srilankan.. but this one was given by richard illingworth

No this one was the same Lankan ump he is really fazul

 

[MoJoJoJo]

this is the two paced wicket..same as of melbourne in pak vs aus second odi..

 

[Rayyman]

Isn’t this a bit like a UAE track?

Calm down it's slow, but not Sharjeel slow.

 

[Arsalan Pro]

Good fielding

 

[Aman]

Isn’t this a bit like a UAE track?

Yes.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Wonderful effort by Azhar.

Amir needs to stop bowling this short-of-good length rubbish. He does not bowl the heavy ball to make much of a difference with that length.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Azhar has to use both hands to get himself off the floor and it's still a four

 

[MRSN]

Isn’t this a bit like a UAE track?

yes the pitch is a bit slow.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Wind is really strong

 

[srh]

Azhar is a cheetah

 

[MoJoJoJo]

strange weather... clouds then sudden sunshine with wind and now drizzling..

 

[imshally81]

Drizzling

 

[Rayyman]

There goes Imam's chance for the next match.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Yes.

does the wind ever stop in NZ?
