New Zealand vs Pakistan | ICC WT20 2016 | March 22nd, 2016 | Mohali | Pakistan Innings

[#GreenRoars]

Any chance of victory guys??

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Sami was great and yet people bash him. Dont know why Irfan is in this team tbh hes a garbage bowler

 

[joly]

Taylor misses a juicy full toss,Taylor survives another day, handed a lifeline in his T20 career by Pakistani bowling, Kiwis must be disappointed,missed out on a lot of loose balls

 

[SpiritOf1903]

Game over!

 

[Ankit007]

Any chance of victory guys??

Yes.. Its a flat pitch

 

[pakistanisgreat]

no chance of victory

 

[Syed2015]

Amir.

Bumrah > 5 Amirs.

 

[Aman]

Bad day for Amir, think he conceded 40 off his last 3 overs.

 

[uberkoen]

Who can replicate Guptil for us?

Is this the day Sharjeel finally scores?

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Time for Shehzad to once in his life, score runs under pressure

 

[joly]

Pakistan will not score above 155, this pitch is not a 180 wicket,pathetic bowling gave 40 runs extra

 

[Red Devil]

Hope Sharjeel fires, badly need a quick start today.

 

[Aman]

Pakistan have a good chance here, the pitch is great for batting.

Even we ended up making 180 despite only one batsmen looking good out there.

 

[Sandeep]

Amir.

Bumrah > 5 Amirs.

Unnecessary dig at Bumrah. Leave that guy alone!

 

[IslamabadUnited]

Maybe

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Yar believe me this can be chased...This is a flat pitch. We just need everyone to hack like there is no tomorrow. Even if two people click we'll chase this down Inshallah.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Very little hope , lets do it. :frodo

 

[pakistanisgreat]

game is over for us! bye bye world cup!

 

[LastManstanding]

There is no way Pakistan are winning this.

 

[yasir]

Terrible last over, really bad choice to bowl regular angle, second time in last two overs... These little things matter a lot[emoji84][emoji84][emoji84][emoji84]

He was bowling fine with round the wicket angle, why he did that again in Grimaldi over??

Pakistan batsmen have an opportunity to show their worth. I think the openers will put on a good display today, the pitch looks good to bat on

 

[Sandeep]

Pakistan need Umar Akmal and Shoaib Malik today more than ever. Two guys whom you can trust to chase these sort of scores!

 

[dhump]

30 Runs too much Amir having a bad day cost Pakistan too much.

[jog_1]

We can chase this

 

[#GreenRoars]

Nothing in this wicket, pure batting paradise and target isn't an impossible one.

 

[joly]

Bad day for Amir, think he conceded 40 off his last 3 overs.

First time he had to bowl under pressure and he was found out yet again on a decent wicket, could have gone easily for 55+ ,very lucky with few mishits by kiwis of hittable balls

 

[pakistanisgreat]

Yar believe me this can be chased...This is a flat pitch. We just need everyone to hack like there is no tomorrow. Even if two people click we'll chase this down Inshallah.

We know it can be chased but who is going to do for us. Not our team can chase

 

[Deewana]

Only chance for us is we are 50-0 or 1 after 5 ovrs
But I am afraid we will 23-3 after 5

I feel like the pre-ban 17-18 year old Amir bowled better when it came to yorkers and fuller balls. His body looked more flexible then as well, but we've yet to see the older Amir bowl in tests especially in UK.

Poor game today for him today. Somewhat unlucky, but also many freebies.

 

[JibranAnsari]

elliot will get a lot of wickets here.

Need sarfraz against santner and sodhi.

 

[dhump]

Batsman should try and win a game for a change.

[BleedGreen]

We need to go all guns blazing. Sharjeel needs to fire

 

[Zak_Fan]

Sarfaraz should get a promotion imo.

 

[uberkoen]

Sharjeel needs to stand up and be counted. Show what's made of.

Not expecting much from Latif. Hopefully Afridi can come in with a small cameo and Malik and Akmal can finish it off for us.

 

[theariezman]

Although pitch looks good and sharjeel is good on green pitches with pace bowlers however he may give up to mcclum or santher.

[pillionrider]

Nothing much in the pitch. Pakistan can do it though I have my doubts whether they can handle the pressure. Malik will need to bat till the end.

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

This is our match to lose.

 

[aslaisnomasla]

Sharjeel will get murdered by a spinner... cant play spinners for shii.... fatasssssssss

 

[Sandeep]

I remember a match between Punjab and Chennai where the latter chased 240 on Mohali track. There's still hope.

 

[joly]

Pitch is not flat,the bowling made it look flat, wait for 6-7 overs of Kiwi Pacers

 

[Bhaijaan]

NZ have fallen 20 run short

A decent batting side should chase this down.

Kindly check out how India chased down 200 on a similar pitch on this ground against Sri Lanka.

Pakistan should back themselves. I see no demon on this surface. Just play your shots.

Yeh cheez, need some positivity haha. We got this iA.

 

[JibranAnsari]

We need dew ,a lot of dew. Mountain dew.

 

[ar2020]

Pitch is good. Easy total to chase. Only 9 runs an over. Anything under 200 is easily chasable with sensible batting.

 

[hamzie]

worst feeling knowing youll lose
but you cant help but hope because this is your team

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Sharjeel, Akmal and Malik are key

I'd have been compatible chasing 170 but 180 is not beyond our reach, it's a good wicket and we'll win providing we get off to a good start. They've packed their squad with spinners but we have a few spin specialists ourselves like Malik and Sarfraz, I expect us to cross the line in the end after struggling a little bit

 

[Rafay Shafiq]

Good batting pitch. Can be chased

 

[Aman]

Yeah, we definitely left some runs out there.

Pakistan are very much capable of chasing this down.

 

[ar2020]

This is Shahzad's responsibility to play majority of the spin overs if they bring spinner early. Take doubles and hit boundaries as it's powerplay.

 

[BleedGreen]

First 6 overs, we need to score 50-70 runs. That will set the platform for the chase

 

[uberkoen]

Irfan needs to sit out the remaining games. He's worse than Wahab.

 

[ar2020]

Why lose lol? Bang scores over 160 yesterday and Australia easily made it. Why cry half way? This is an easy target.

 

[Strike!]

No confidence in us chasing down this score.

 

[Cryin Out Loud]

Interesting. I'd say NZ are some 30 runs ahead. We'll see.

 

[jog_1]

We need to come out like we did against Bangladesh

 

[Red Devil]

Malik & Sarfraz can chill and save it for the Aus clash InshAllah

We might actually need them today since both of them are good players of spin.

 

[Bhaijaan]

The best indicator of how good this pitch is that whichever new batsman came in to bat didn't have any major issues in putting the ball away.



The only issue I see is Pakistan isn't a world class or even a decent chasing side, but if they get it right this is possible.

 

[Pete Rose]

Should have bowled Malik when irfan and Aamir were getting tonked. Poor poor captaincy

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Shehzad should either score quick or get out early. Akmal must come at 3. Idc if we lose a wicket on the first ball

 

[TalhaSyed]

"180 will test Pakistan - but they are the knd of side that can come out and get them in 15 overs!" - Shane Warne

"It's a good score here - but I think Pakistan may have a chance here!" - Jimmy Anderson

[MENTION=47617]Red Devil[/MENTION] & [MENTION=140754]simon619[/MENTION] - Jimmy & Warney are also part of the Pakistani New Day! #Positivity

 

[H2O1]

Impossible for us to chase this , we will have like 29-2 after 6.

Need a quick start if we want to get anywhere close to 180. Need to play with some purpose.

second that

 

[Bhaijaan]

Pakistan are very much capable of chasing this down.

Switch Pakistan with any top batting side in this world and they'd be cursing themselves for not crossing 200 here.

Right now NZ's put all its hopes on Pakistan being a dumb batting side but we don't know which Pak side might turn up tonight.

 

[Pete Rose]

Will we get any singles up front. Or are we going for 25 in 5 overs

 

[ar2020]

Interesting. I'd say NZ are some 30 runs ahead. We'll see.

Really? You think this is a 150 run pitch lol?

 

[JibranAnsari]

Shehzad cant afford to play dot balls here. He needs to score at a quick pace tonight. Redeem himself.

My money is on shehzad to score a 70 odd here.

 

[Cryin Out Loud]

Santner to open?

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Will we get any singles up front. Or are we going for 25 in 5 overs

Pakistani openers and singles?

 

[BleedGreen]

Let's do this.

 

[Pete Rose]

I anticipate a run out

 

[ar2020]

If you are scared of chasing 180 in T20 you shouldn't be playing this format.

 

[MMHS]

What chance that PAK had is in chasing, I don't think Afrid & WY could have defended 230 here .....

 

[uberkoen]

Pakistani openers and singles?

Who needs singles? Go for boundaries!!

 

[Ilan Bluestone]

Will we get any singles up front. Or are we going for 25 in 5 overs

30-1 after ten overs. Shehzad will talk about how he values his wicket.

 

[Amjid Javed]

I cant see us getting anywhere close to 180 here. The usual 20/4 after 6 overs will kill the whole game for us.
