New Zealand vs Pakistan | 4th ODI | Hamilton | Jan 16, 2018 | Pakistan Innings

[Rana]

Stay still!!!!

 

[Abdul]

Smooth operator.

 

[Rayyman]

Someone give this guy a NyQuil.

 

[Suleiman]

Most significant six in Sarfraz's career

 

[DHONI_FAN]

Sarfi cant run two

 

[Rana]

Sarfarz can do much better if he stays still!

 

[TeymurBlake]

Kaptan with the CHAKA

 

[MMHS]

Hope best 2 hitters of PAK team gets some time in middle

 

[Shafi]

So basically we may have 1 slot open for next series assuming they will rest Azhar

 

[Rayyman]

Hope best 2 hitters of PAK team gets some time in middle

Faheem opened...

 

[Lefthanded]

Is there an easier opposition available?

Haha, I think inter-squad matches for this squad and a few at the fringes will be kante-daar. The less rubbish XI will scrape a win. White knuckles and all.

 

[Shafi]

What is the par score in this pitch? Don't think even 250 is enough

 

[Rana]

Well played Sarfaraz

 

[DHONI_FAN]

What is the par score in this pitch? Don't think even 250 is enough

275 as per experts

 

[Syed1]

I miss the time of Razzler... when 15-20 off the last 3-4 overs was expected

 

[TeymurBlake]

Could Pakistan reach 250?????

Yeah they can.... they could reach alot more had the professor not been playing.

 

[Rayyman]

I miss the time of Razzler... when 15-20 off the last 3-4 overs was expected

Maybe if he wasn't opening today

 

[BD-fan]

We get 230 max. Ferguson and Boult to bowl the next five.

47.1 225/5. YOU think they can manage 5 runs in 17 remaining balls?

 

[Syed1]

But but but he is specialist captain



Please listen to me I have soo many POTWs

 

[MMHS]

Well played, well played indeed.

 

[waleed88]

Sarfraz haters!!!!!!!

 

[Syed1]

47.1 225/5. YOU think they can manage 5 runs in 17 remaining balls?

He is one of those "PP experts"

 

[BD-fan]

Could Pakistan reach 250?????

Yeah they can.... they could reach alot more had the professor not been playing.

Without Hafeez they would be 210 allout.

 

[badsha001]

you guys do realize that this is one of the smallest ground in the world. even 350 wouldn't be safe here for these kiwi hitters...

 

[Rana]

Good knock by Sarfaraz

 

[waleed88]

One of the shots of the summer from the captain!!! Just saw on cricinfo commentary

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Well played Skipper.

 

[Syed1]

Send Hasan

 

[BD-fan]

He is one of those "PP experts"

Salaam, How you doing? How cold it is up there?

 

[Syed1]

Salaam, How you doing? How cold it is up there?

A very mild -18 today



But I'm looking forward to Saturday its going to be sunny and 6C.... Can't wait

 

[Rana]

A couple of Razzaq overs here would get pakistan to 260 back in the days

 

[TeymurBlake]

Captain played a decent knock.

 

[TeymurBlake]

Without Hafeez they would be 210 allout.

Pakistan could have had a lot more on the other hand as well.

 

[JattMaula]

Gali Gali mein shor hein.....

 

[Lefthanded]

For a guy that I don't particularly rate as international class batsman, this was a good kaptaan's innings even if this was a bad time to get out.

Not nearly enough runs for this pitch.

 

[Syed1]

How do we go about improving this tuk tuk batting lineup...

I see no near-field solution

 

[Syed1]

Gali Gali mein shor hein.....

Poora tubbar chor hai

 

[Rana]

Goodnight guys. im pretty sure we have lost today

 

[Rayyman]

Goodnight guys. im pretty sure we have lost today

Bye.

 

[DHONI_FAN]

Southee is so underrated..

 

[Syed1]

Southee is so underrated..

Average of 33 lmao

 

[Syed1]

We will get 245 odd

 

[DHONI_FAN]

We will get 245 odd

250+

 

[badsha001]

Shadab showing how its done lmao

 

[dauntless]

Shabba professor saab

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Hafeez shuts all his haters. )

 

[dauntless]

So professor saab booked his ticket to england

 

[RagingJ]

Hafeez booked his place for 2023.

 

[badsha001]

*** he is booked for a while now

 

[Abdullah719]

Hafeez shuts all his haters. )

Cometh the man

 

[DHONI_FAN]

WC2023 confirmed for professor

 

[Rayyman]

Great hitting by Hafeez

But Boult destroyed him at the end there.

 

[dauntless]

New Zealand will chase this in 42 overs

 

[world cup captain]

Hafeez from now on cannot bat higher than #5. He clearly is a great hitter and that should be utilized.

 

[waleed88]

Hafeez is invinicible in NZ, this is his yard!!!

Told yaaaa [MENTION=107807]Pete Rose[/MENTION]

 

[MMHS]

Faheem opened...

Hasan is the cleanest hitter in this side.

 

[Pete Rose]

Hafeez from now on cannot bat higher than #5. He clearly is a great hitter and that should be utilized.

this is how he fools you, and has for the last 15 years.

 

[Pete Rose]

all that hitting to get to score a strike rate barely above 100.

 

[waleed88]

NZ is to Hafeez, what Srilanka is to Malik

 

[QalandarFan]

This is why if Hafeez is in the team (which he shouldn’t be) he should be playing the finisher role not the anchor

 

[Red Devil]

Hafeez from now on cannot bat higher than #5. He clearly is a great hitter and that should be utilized.

I think he'll be forced to bat there now with Haris looking good at #4.

 

[waleed88]

all that hitting to get to score a strike rate barely above 100.

Thats true I used the same yard stick to bash Babar....

Babar doesn't have the power game that Hafeez has though

 

[Rayyman]

Hasan is the cleanest hitter in this side.

And Faheem is second. You said two best.

 

[MMHS]

262 looks decent, but that finish tells me lot more was possible - Kiwis'll start to chase knowing that.

 

[world cup captain]

this is how he fools you, and has for the last 15 years.

He was never getting dropped. May as well make the most of him. I was all for him to be dopped back in 2015 but he is still glued to the team and probably will be till next year.

 

[Chief Destroyer]

C'mon guys don't be misled again. It's 60m boundaries and half the hits were mishits that would've been out on normal sized grounds.

 

[MMHS]

And Faheem is second. You said two best.

Shadab is better hitter than Fahim, who takes little time to go on (check his SR - around 80, because of slow start). Shadab is one who can hit it sweetly even from ball 1.

 

[MMHS]

Good night - I'll try to catch that Test match, more than any thing else.

 

[world cup captain]

I think he'll be forced to bat there now with Haris looking good at #4.

I hope it’s true because we can’t afford to have a #4 who cannot bat in testing conditions especially when Babar is out of touch.

 

[Sadevdesai]

Great hitting at the end by Hafeez .... but it won't make up for the slow start !!!!! 263 to get for NZ. Anything below 275 is a LOW score nowadays !!!!

 

[QalandarFan]

C'mon guys don't be misled again. It's 60m boundaries and half the hits were mishits that would've been out on normal sized grounds.

The guy will not get dropped until he decides to retire unfortunately, so if he is going to play it should be at 6/7 not 4.

 

[QalandarFan]

Good night - I'll try to catch that Test match, more than any thing else.

Ooo looking forward to watch AB continue batting!

 

[world cup captain]

Difficult decision ahead. Stay awake to watch the match risking sleep in school or go to sleep and act like a logical person?

We know what it is.

 

[Rayyman]

Good night - I'll try to catch that Test match, more than any thing else.

I think Hafeez's innings has ruined your day man.

 

[yasir]

I am still not getting over the fact that we let KW bowl 10 overs, gave him two wickets and scored only 30, this is terrible

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Shadab is better hitter than Fahim, who takes little time to go on (check his SR - around 80, because of slow start). Shadab is one who can hit it sweetly even from ball 1.

Nahin yaar. It's the other way around. Fahim's SR is misleading. He can hit it from ball one on almost any pitch while Shadab is a true pitch player more suited to playing ground shots.

 

[BD-fan]

80% comment is negative in this thread. Why are you guys so bitter? Find something positive. This is your team. You have no say on who would be in the 11. It is the coach, captain and mgmt who decides. You wanna blame someone then blame the selectors, coach and captain.

Whoever plays in the 11, they wear the Pak jersey. They didn't PAY themselves in to the team.

 

[RagingJ]

Worst thing about Hafeez's performance is, despite actually performing, Pak will still lose and Hafeez will keep his place for at least another year.

With minnows and Asia Cup coming up, he'll be there for the World Cup.

 

[Rayyman]

Difficult decision ahead. Stay awake to watch the match risking sleep in school or go to sleep and act like a logical person?

We know what it is.

I'm facing the same dilemma.

I'm gonna try to sleep.

But I won't be able to.

 

[Saeed]

I'm facing the same dilemma.

I'm gonna try to sleep.

But I won't be able to.

Go to sleep otherwise Pakistan will lose.
