NZ Board President's XI v Pakistanis | Tour Match | January 27, 2015 | Lincoln

[adnan yasin]

PRESIDENT'S XI require 75 runs from 10.0 overs at 7.50 per over

Sohail khan leaking runs

 

[mmkextreme_1]

Sohail Khan was an horrible selection for the WC squad, no where near international quality.

 

[Sadevdesai]

last over ..... 17 runs !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[adnan yasin]

PRESIDENT'S XI require 64 runs from 9.0 overs at 7.11 per over

11 runs from yasir shah overs.

 

[m.shah]

Sohail khan is a horrible bowler

 

[Strike Rate]

Bilawal Bhutto trolling everyone lol 3rd wicket buhahaha

 

[adnan yasin]

Bilawal bhatti got his 3rd wicket .......... Astle out

 

[NZcricketfan]

I think the president 11 wicket keeper is injured. Still has not batted yet

 

[adnan yasin]

So is bilawal bhatti justifying his selection after scoring 23 runs and 3 wickets with good economy rate

??

 

[Mir jibran]

bhatti should play wc

 

[adnan yasin]

I think the president 11 wicket keeper is injured. Still has not batted yet

some serious injury?

 

[adnan yasin]

couple of dot balls by bhatti

 

[adnan yasin]

61 needed in 8 overs

 

[hur rizvi]

Bhatti with decent figures

sohail khan spanked again, disastrous selection

 

[Strike Rate]

Pakistan innings Pictures from this match:

 

[NZcricketfan]

Yeah I think Pakistan will win this. From the last picture it is the back up keeper keeping so one of the batsmen must be injured

 

[adnan yasin]

Hafeez bowled a wide at this stage

 

[iafzal]

If Junaid get fit by world cup time, they may be sending Sohail Khan back instead of Bhatti.

 

[iafzal]

Yeah I think Pakistan will win this. From the last picture it is the back up keeper keeping so one of the batsmen must be injured

Yes .

TL Seifert: Wicketkeeper changed to TL Seifert at the first drinks break (Over 12.4)

 

[adnan yasin]

56 needed in 7 overs

Thanks for the pictures.... looks like a club ground

 

[iafzal]

They will probably still get 11 players to bat. Keep in mind Adil bowled 10 overs for them but he is not in the batting line up.

 

[hur rizvi]

Yeah I think Pakistan will win this. From the last picture it is the back up keeper keeping so one of the batsmen must be injured

Morally it is a victory for NZXI even if PAkistan win this

and still they have a chance

 

[adnan yasin]

If Junaid get fit by world cup time, they may be sending Sohail Khan back instead of Bhatti.

I think they can't do that as per law

bhatti has to go because sohail khan was in the original squad

 

[NZcricketfan]

56 needed in 7 overs

Thanks for the pictures.... looks like a club ground

My local team doesn't even play domestic matches there.

 

[iRfaN_LA]

Bhatti has that extra pace which can be useful pitches. Sohail Khan is just a trundler. I can't believe this guy made it to the squad.

 

[Strike Rate]

TBH the kit looks fine while wearing it all of us thought they will look like clown in this kit.

 

[hur rizvi]

how the hell they selected Sohail khan

 

[Strike Rate]

My local team doesn't even play domestic matches there.

You stay near this Lincoln University or studies there? Google says this is a University ground

 

[iafzal]

TBH the kit looks fine while wearing it all of us thought they will look like clown in this kit.

They are performing like clowns though.

 

[hur rizvi]

TBH the kit looks fine while wearing it all of us thought they will look like clown in this kit.

looks good on he players

 

[adnan yasin]

expensive final over by bhatti

gave away 9 runs

 

[NZcricketfan]

how the hell they selected Sohail khan

He did well in the domestic cricket. Not sure what that says about Pakistan domestic cricket though

 

[iafzal]

Sohail Khan is the Mansoor Akhtar of bowling. Exceptional domestic record and then you give him a chance against a foreign team he fails to deliver and looks out of sorts.

 

[hur rizvi]

ESpensive over from bhatti

 

[adnan yasin]

My local team doesn't even play domestic matches there.

Really, but why??

 

[Strike Rate]

They are performing like clowns though.

haha have to agree but i dont mind this performance and even if they repeat it in odi series too but i want them to learn the mistakes they did during these experiments and make a perfect 11 for the WC

 

[NZcricketfan]

Really, but why??

They play at mainpower oval in a town with 14,000 people half an hour outside of christchurch

 

[hur rizvi]

He did well in the domestic cricket. Not sure what that says about Pakistan domestic cricket though

Domestic performances dont count when you have seen a bowler play for Pakistan, he is terrible

His domestic record is good but not exceptional, Even bhatti has better FC figures

 

[adnan yasin]

now hafeez is leaking runs... just been hit for a six

 

[iRfaN_LA]

If Junaid Khan gets fit, and Bhatti performs well in the NZ ODIs, we will still have to send him back. Bhatti is an all-rounder option, much more useful than Sohail Khan.

 

[NZcricketfan]

Domestic performances dont count when you have seen a bowler play for Pakistan, he is terrible

His domestic record is good but not exceptional, Even bhatti has better FC figures

When Sohail first got selected he was averaging 15.

 

[hur rizvi]

NZ Board XI should win this 7.55 RPO is nothing in death overs

and then we can boast of being clean swept by club XI

 

[iafzal]

haha have to agree but i dont mind this performance and even if they repeat it in odi series too but i want them to learn the mistakes they did during these experiments and make a perfect 11 for the WC

I hope so, history says otherwise they make the same mistakes again and again. We cannot afford any repeat mistakes anymore.

 

[adnan yasin]

good recovery by hafeez... after 3 scoring deliveries including a six.. he bowled 3 dot balls

 

[vandokkum]

Didn't this legend Sohail Khan call Kohli a nobody ?

 

[usmaneeyat]

Sohail Khan is as mediocre as they come. I called it the day he was selected lol. He is pathetic

 

[NZcricketfan]

Didn't this legend Sohail Khan call Kohli a nobody ?

Didn't you say they would win by other 100 runs

 

[Sakss]

Sohail fast gets smacked for a 6

 

[iafzal]

Sohail Khan time. Either he will shut us up or get booted out of the WC with this bowling against a club side.

 

[hur rizvi]

When Sohail first got selected he was averaging 15.

That was in 2008, and he hardly played 10-11 FC matches after that he has been up and down even in domestic..

25 AVG with ball is nothing special in PAkistan domestic dozen of bowlers have better domestic record

 

[iRfaN_LA]

Sohail Khan getting hammered again. 6 and 2.

 

[adnan yasin]

another six given by sohail khan

 

[adnan yasin]

is this ground too small for sohail khan pace

 

[Strike Rate]

Sohail Khan is the Mansoor Akhtar of bowling. Exceptional domestic record and then you give him a chance against a foreign team he fails to deliver and looks out of sorts.

He is the Fazl-e-Akbar the biggest domestic bully bowler of Pak. Mansoor Akhtar and Shafiq Papa were domestic bullies too. I will never understand why Fazl-e-Akbar failed at international level he was one of the finest bowler in our domestic and many other bowlers who performed for Pakistan learned from him for example Umar Gul

I mean 600 FC wickets at an average of 21 is remarkable

 

[adnan yasin]

is this pollard has any relationship with the west indian pollard ???

 

[iafzal]

is this ground too small for sohail khan pace

That is what he is going to tell us. Did he not say he was the fastest bowler in Pak?

 

[hur rizvi]

Sohail cheetah another

 

[adnan yasin]

He is the Fazl-e-Akbar the biggest domestic bully bowler of Pak. Mansoor Akhtar and Shafiq Papa were domestic bullies too. I will never understand why Fazl-e-Akbar failed at international level he was one of the finest bowler in our domestic and many other bowlers who performed for Pakistan learned from him for example Umar Gul

I mean 600 FC wickets at an average of 21 is remarkable

I dont think Fazl e akbar got enough chance to establish himself in the side

at that time as well .. we gave 1 or 2 matches

 

[NZcricketfan]

150 for pollard.

2 overs left for irfan so still in pakistans favour

 

[Sakss]

14 off the over...Wel Done Sohailegend

 

[iHammad]

Last match it was Seifert, this match it's Pollard

153 off 130 balls

 

[badsha001]

kholi hoga apne ghar ka... anyone still remember

 

[adnan yasin]

I think sohail khan world cup dreams are over

Waqar younis will hit sohail khan with a bat and make him injured and send him back

 

[iafzal]

It can be a mental block which these domestic superstar cannot get over. Same with Mansoor Akhtar who was supposed to have technically the best batsman in the country and failed miserably internationally.

 

[hur rizvi]

Sohail dot ball what a champion

 

[iafzal]

I think sohail khan world cup dreams are over

Waqar younis will hit sohail khan with a bat and make him injured and send him back

or someone will open the door and hit his thigh, we all know how that goes.

 

[hur rizvi]

So a clean sweep against NZ club side

We are the new minnows ??

 

[adnan yasin]

That is what he is going to tell us. Did he not say he was the fastest bowler in Pak?

hahaha....if he is the fasted then rest in peace pakistan bowling

 

[NZcricketfan]

or someone will open the door and hit his thigh, we all know how that goes.

Maybe he will be attacked by that ghost

 

[iafzal]

Time for Irfan to deliver. If he cannot do it against club bully than it will be hard to go against internationally bullies.

 

[NZcricketfan]

So a clean sweep against NZ club side

We are the new minnows ??

If pollard gets out it is game over so keep in there

 

[Hamza_]

Highest List A score for Pollard. Our bowling is awful, Sohail Khan is just pathetic

 

[adnan yasin]

or someone will open the door and hit his thigh, we all know how that goes.

I remember the scene from a movie ...it fits in here

where Paresh Rawal used to say to Akshay kumar * KHOPRI TOR SAALAY KA*

Same feelings will be of waqar younis

 

[hur rizvi]

I consider this a loss even now, doesnt matter what scoreboard says

 

[Strike Rate]

I dont think Fazl e akbar got enough chance to establish himself in the side

at that time as well .. we gave 1 or 2 matches

he was given 5 Tests but have to agree with you not consecutive matches i remember that NZ Test series where he payed 2 matches back 2 back and in that series our highest wicket taker was a spinner lol saqi bhai

 

[iRfaN_LA]

Irfan gets Pollard.

 

[iafzal]

Here you go Irfan comes and take out the domestic bully. Must give him some confidence going into the ODI series

 

[NZcricketfan]

Pollard out. Series drawn 1-1

 

[vandokkum]

Didn't you say they would win by other 100 runs

I think I need to install a sarcasm detector for our Kiwi brothers.

 

[adnan yasin]

so our man irfan got the wicket of pollard
