What time does it start?

What time does it start?

3:00 am PKT

 

[KingKhanWC]

I hope we can avoid a whitewash, the team has failed miserably but can't really fault the effort of the players esp the bowling and fielding.

Win the toss and bat again.

 

[Saeed]

If we bat first openers will have to give us a good start. Tuk tuking initially and hoping for runs in the death runs is not enough these days.

 

[Ahson8]

Lol what kind of bowling attack is this ?

 

[Da_Future_Knick]

Yamin Nawaz and Amin in

 

[Saeed]

NZ batting first, we will have to restrict them to 250 and hopefully chase that down.

 

[Abdullah719]

 

[Abdullah719]

Hope to keep them under 400

 

[Adnan_Ilyas]

Finally bench players have a opportunity, hope they do good. Interested in Aamer Yamin.

 

[Ahson8]

Hope to keep them under 400

Lol hopefully.

 

[Syed1]

No Hasan and no Amir?



Ya Allah karam kar

 

[Usman Chadda]

Oh bhai ye Kya bowling attack khila di.

 

[ManFan]

Playing two spinners who turn the ball in the same direction in NZ while being 4-0 down. Mickey! What are you doing? Mickey! You just hit me with the lead pipe in the back of my knees! Hopefully, this is a repeat of the 5th ODI in England.

 

[Usman Chadda]

This can be a massacre.

 

[Saeed]

Oh bhai ye Kya bowling attack khila di.

It’s the last match, we want to chase down a big score today.

 

[babajee]

350 chase is on

 

[DRsohail]

hafeez to occupy his old spot.4th position??

 

[Usman Chadda]

Aamer Yamin has a chance to impress today.

 

[letme alone]

No Hasan and no Amir?



Ya Allah karam kar

uj tai usa unkha bund ker kay match dekha gay...

 

[DRsohail]

bhai weesay harna ha so inzi will be happy today that all bench strength is utilized.

 

[world cup captain]

Pakistan looking to give another team a chance to make a new highest score today. We truly do have big hearts.

 

[KingKhanWC]

NZ batting first against this bowling attack.

300+ is very much on the cards tonight.

 

[ManFan]

This management did not play 2 spinners in the playing XI in the UAE in October but are playing 2 spinners in NZ in mid-January.

 

[Abdullah]

Part of me wants to chase 320. All good practice for the WC

 

[Hasan123]

I don't have much confidence in that bowling attack.

 

[shokz1408]

Good team selection by pakistan, finally get to see something different.

However as NZ are batting first, this match has already been lost. But I'm hoping Amin, Yamin and Nawaz perform today.

 

[Rayyman]

This management did not play 2 spinners in the playing XI in the UAE in October but are playing 2 spinners in NZ in mid-January.

It's actually Mid-Summer in the Southern Hemisphere right now. If you didn't know that already...

 

[babajee]

Not Nawaz he is the definition of bits and pieces. But yeah Amin and Yamin

 

[Arsalan Pro]

Malik, Amir and Hasan out

I hope Pakistan play well without them.

 

[Markhor]

5-0.

The pace attack is deplorable. Why's the psuedo all-rounder Nawaz playing - does Sarfraz just like having his Quetta Gladiators buddy around ?

 

[Usman Chadda]

We have just pulled a fast one on New Zealand here. I'm sure they were expecting us to play for pride.

 

[Markhor]

Part of me wants to chase 320. All good practice for the WC

We'll be chasing 420 with this attack.

 

[Syed1]

5-0.

The pace attack is deplorable. Why's the psuedo all-rounder Nawaz playing - does Sarfraz just like having his Quetta Gladiators buddy around ?

So Mickey Arthur is only good for drinking chai and letting Sarfaraz do as he pleases?

 

[Sadevdesai]

This bowling attack will give plenty of opportunities to our batsmen to chase !!!!!!

 

[letme alone]

we win"duny umeed tay qaim hai"

 

[Saeed]

This bowling attack will give plenty of opportunities to our batsmen to chase !!!!!!

Maybe talented Babar Azam will get his first 200 today.

 

[Arsalan Pro]

5-0.

The pace attack is deplorable. Why's the psuedo all-rounder Nawaz playing - does Sarfraz just like having his Quetta Gladiators buddy around ?

They are trying all the players from the bench who didn't play a single game, if he doesn't perform they will at least have a reason to drop him for the next series.

 

[Syed1]

Maybe talented Babar Azam will get his first 200 today.

There are only 50 overs in an innings.

 

[Markhor]

Mohammad Nawaz is the new Zulfiqar Babar.

Basically there for the free trips around the world. Infact, Zulfi was a much more deserving selection.

 

[jog_1]

This might turn ugly real quick.

Yamin and Ruman opening the bowling? Lets hope we’re proven wrong and do well in this game.

 

[Hasan123]

So Mickey Arthur is only good for drinking chai and letting Sarfaraz do as he pleases?

Nawaz is a Sarfraz selection. It's so obvious.

 

[Saeed]

There are only 50 overs in an innings.

It’s possible if others bat less. If they keep the strike away from Babar then we can’t really blame him.

 

[Rayyman]

Ayy my boy Nawaz playing!

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Yamin finally.

Please take this chance

 

[Rana]

This is the Yamin we were all waiting for?

Much better second delivery

 

[ManFan]

It's actually Mid-Summer in the Southern Hemisphere right now. If you didn't know that already...

That's fine. Yet despite it raining all series, the management decides to play 2 spinners.

 

[Rana]

another 130k bowler

 

[Arsalan Pro]

If I am correct, last time both Amir and Hasan were not part of our bowling attack was back in 2015.

 

[Rana]

lovely outswing. This guy can be a handful on seeming tracks

 

[Saeed]

Yamin finally.

Please take this chance

He started with two wides.

 

[mmkextreme_1]

So refreshing to see our opening bowler getting swing, albeit at 130ks. A lesson for Amir.

 

[Rana]

Rumman lol

 

[Da_Future_Knick]

Should’ve gave Faheem this over

 

[Arsalan Pro]

Back to back fours

 

[babajee]

Even Rumman swinging it ..

 

[Da_Future_Knick]

Rumman is a joke of a bowler

 

[Sirris]

Amir is a non performer so his exclusion is acceptable. But Hasan Ali?

 

[Railu Katta]

Even Rumman swinging it ..

Why do you hate Yamin? every one of your posts about him is negative...

 

[Rana]

What a poor start by Rumman

 

[Markhor]

Hopefully we can say alvida to Rumman Raees's ODI career after this series.

On true pitches he's a powder puff bowler. Should only play T20s where his variations are better served in a 4 over spell.

 

[Markhor]

Amir is a non performer so his exclusion is acceptable. But Hasan Ali?

Hasan Ali has a groin strain.

 

[babajee]

Why do you hate Yamin? every one of your posts about him is negative...

He’s alright. Idk he seems bang average to me.

I feel like Faheem has a much higher ceiling and is what we are looking for

 

[MMHS]

Great, great day in PAK cricket history - from Fazal- Khan Md. to Sarfraz-Imran to WW to Sohaib-Sami to Asif-Amir; now we are watching Yamin & Raees taking the load of new ball for PAK.

I still have lot, lot to see in this game.

 

[Abdullah]

We'll be chasing 420 with this attack.

I think it will take spin so maybe not. Let's see

 

[Rana]

Munro looking dangerous

 

[Arsalan Pro]

Another 4!!!

 

[syed abbas]

Lol at our trundlers,who are bowling in 130s despite playing so much cricket while the Indian teenagers are bowling at above 145km/h.

 

[Rana]

Why did he go around the wicket?

 

[babajee]

Double century for Munro coming up

 

[DRsohail]

Jo Hamane Daastaa Apani Sunaai, Aap Kyun Roye .....................

 

[Markhor]

Yamin is another powder puff bowler. His strength is batting not bowling.

We're conceding 380 here.

 

[Rana]

What a shot

 

[shokz1408]

300+

 

[Rana]

Pakistan Losing the toss and bowling first on a flat pancake against an attacking side. It was bound to happen,

 

[DRsohail]

slip??

 

[castortroy]

Wow kiwis could get 400 here

That guptil shot was unreal

 

[Kohli The King of Chase]

Lol Mickey wants Pakistan to chase 430 I think .

That's why intentionally he selected Club level bowling attack.
