Pakistan (107/3) secure a convincing 7-wicket victory against Canada (106/7) in a must win game of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024

[Sherlock]

There's a 96% chance of rain for US' next game. If that's the case then doesn't matter what Pakistan do from here on in.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

There's 38 runs left to get with 9 wickets in hand. Against Canada.

Too funny. Just shows how screwed we are.

 

[mominsaigol]

This keeps proving why babar is naturally better at no 3.

Best batter in NZ Jan series at no 3, only time he's done well in this tournament was at no 3.

He's just crap as an opener

 

[adzzy786]

Babar at 3 makes sense.

Now make Fakhar open, anyone but Rizwan.

Babar should be at 4.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Babar taking risks.... Am I dreaming?

Gary has drawn the line "Shape up or ship out"

 

[JilaWatan]

Offside rizwan is sooo ugly to the eyes

 

[mominsaigol]

Babar should be at 4.

Naw all his best performances have always been at no 3. People don't understand that babar is just a nervous starter and a crap opener.

He’s batting crap now

Now we have to win by a HUGE margin and hope USA loose by HUGE margins fgs

 

[jnaveen1980]

Pakistan is racing along

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

Offside rizwan is sooo ugly to the eyes

He should be a butcher instead. Disgusting technique.

 

[emranabbas]

Babar at 3 makes sense.

Now make Fakhar open, anyone but Rizwan.

Been saying all along send 2 aggressive for powerplay if they fail rizbar is there to tuk tuk to rebuild

 

[JilaWatan]

When rizwan runs why does he waddle... Lol

 

[adzzy786]

Naw all his best performances have always been at no 3. People don't understand that babar is just a nervous starter and a crap opener.

you do realise we are facing Canada? This performance means nothing.

Also it’s not for him, it’s for his team! Babar decided not to take ANY middle order batsmen with him. So he needs to be in the middle order!

 

[jnaveen1980]

With 9 wickets in hand they can safely throw kitchen sink.

 

[mominsaigol]

So now we have another 2019, 2023 situation? Where we must score 200 and get the team out for 30? All that while playing in a flood?

 

[adzzy786]

Attention seeker. Proper Bollywood princess.

In Jan nz he was the best batter at no 3 for 5 games

 

[adzzy786]

Yes. I been saying this. But other posters on this forum think that NRR from This game Wont matter.

 

[JilaWatan]

Need zaman here to finish it off. These guys haven't hit the gym in a while

 

[jnaveen1980]

India won't be able to destroy USA here given that this is a low scoring ground as it is

 

[adzzy786]

In Jan nz he was the best batter at no 3 for 5 games

Read the second paragraph.

 

[RidiculousMan]

Another soft dismissal.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Babar needs to drop this shot. He gets out almost every match trying this nonsense

 

[JilaWatan]

Attention seeker. Proper Bollywood princess.

Like he just put on pads for the first time.

 

[RidiculousMan]

India won't be able to destroy USA here given that this is a low scoring ground as it is

Oh they will

 

[jnaveen1980]

Great innings has come to an end.

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

Time for iftimania

 

[emranabbas]

Yes. I been saying this. But other posters on this forum think that NRR from This game Wont matter.

Only chance is NRR we have 9 wickets left don't know why they want to play full 20 overs

 

[adzzy786]

Like he just put on pads for the first time.

I used to really like him but he does this over acting in every single game

 

[JilaWatan]

Zaman please finish this

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

Babar is more disgusted with his average dropping than the result. Even the shots he gets out to he's trying to angle the bat down to avoid any chance of a catch. If he'd just hit the shot with some venom it would have been a four.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Time for iftimania

He isn't in the side.

 

[adzzy786]

THANK GOD
I never thought I’d be so happy that he is out

 

[mominsaigol]

Read the second paragraph.

Currently babar and rizwan batting at no 4 and 5 with walking wickets at the top will be suicide, Fakhar is fine but saim and usman are tails.

Pakistan needs solid openers + proper Middle order bats such as tayyab tahir and openers such as shabzada farhan.

You can place anyone anywhere and resukt won't make a huge difference.

 

[JilaWatan]

I used to really like him but he does this over acting in every single game

Hes been exposed as a leg side bully.

 

[shokz1408]

Run a ball 33, poor innings in the context. These guys will never learn in terms of managing the NRR in world tournaments urgh. Can’t even do it against minnows.

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

He isn't in the side.

I know

 

[JilaWatan]

Babar getting out to the same shot is just... No words

 

[adzzy786]

Absoloute pathetic innings

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

Babar needs to drop this shot. He gets out almost every match trying this nonsense

Ironically he plays that shot to lower his chances of getting out.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

When will he stop that shot

You do realise we have all openers in the squad?

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

Now they will take the game deep

 

[mominsaigol]

Decent innings from Bobby, but he's always medicore in tournaments, an overall bottler and crap player in pressure situations.

He vanishes when needed the most

 

[batandballbattle]

got out to that shot quite a few times now, even minnows have him figured out

 

[adzzy786]

Babar needs to go. He is a virus in this side

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Come on Fakhar bang a couple of sixes and finish this

 

[mominsaigol]

You do realise we have all openers in the squad?

My point is we need a new squad, this squad is toast regardless. A squad that doesn't feature rizwan at all and frankly doesn't feature Bobby either

 

[JaDed]

Junaid bhai killed the game for Kaneda

 

[adzzy786]

Decent? tell me the bar is low

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Babar needs to go. He is a virus in this side

He is going for nihaari and paaye tonight

 

[emranabbas]

Kirsten happy with that shot

 

[jnaveen1980]

48 runs have come against two spinners. Canada missed the trick of not having extra seamer

 

[emranabbas]

Rizwan inner actor woke up again

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

Babar still sat there fuming in the dugout. Easy stats missed!

 

[Devadwal]

Rizwan drama queen

 

[JaDed]

No wonder US smacked Canada

 

[emranabbas]

Rizwan freaking drama

 

[Suleiman]

Babar and Rizwan still getting their nice run a ball or less than 30+ when we should’ve tried to destroy the target asap to get that NRR boost.

 

[emranabbas]

All that drama for a nothing shot

 

[mominsaigol]

Rizwan's acting is so tedious icc needs to now implement rules against it. Injuries are for injuries not acting as prop for Pakistani public

 

[Deewana Mastana]

No hurry boys

No rush

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

They are not concerned about NRR at all. Would serve them right if it ends up costing them.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Head and Warner would've probably smashed this inside the PP

 

[JaDed]

Rizwan and his fans will be so thrilled with his fifty

 

[adzzy786]

All that fuss for one single

 

[mominsaigol]

With all said, this is poor from Pakistan. They need to hurry incase usa vs Ireland isn't a washout

 

[Devadwal]

Pakistan should have finished the game inside 16 overs

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

Head and Warner would've probably smashed this inside the PP

They'd do it just to send a message to everyone else.

 

[mominsaigol]

Head and Warner would've probably smashed this inside the PP

Naw they wouldn't not in NY. However they would have finished this game by 10th to 12th

 

[adzzy786]

Head and Warner would've probably smashed this inside the PP

people are here praising this chase

 

[Deewana Mastana]

They'd do it just to send a message to everyone else.

Absolutely just to put the fear of the lord

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

Just slog it ffs

 

[emranabbas]

Rizzy busy trying for his 50 without caring about net run rate

8 wickets just do it

 

[adzzy786]

Rizwan lacks total game awareness. It is ridiculous. Pakistan think tank is thick

 

[Deewana Mastana]

The game in Florida could be a wash out lol

 

[t_kaay]

No game awareness whatsoever

 

[mominsaigol]

Rizzy busy trying fir his 50 without caring about run rate

8 wickets just do it

Yeah I'm aware. He also does this, doesn't care about rr, about himself smh. Slowing down for milestones

 

[adzzy786]

How can I support this team? I really think this is the worse team we ever had

 

[Sherazkhalid]

Rizwan and his fans will be so thrilled with his fifty

It's a bits and pieces team, everyone will do something once in 20 games and their fans will go goo goo ga ga
