Pakistan (111/7) end their T20 World Cup campaign with a narrow 3-wicket victory over Ireland (106/9)

[ethan hunt]

One guy id like to see play for pak in the future is Ihsanullah.

 

[Rana]

Umar guls nephew parchi

Rizwan Multan Sultan Parchi? Why you always protecting Rizwan?

 

[NeVerMind]

Why is the likes of Sahdab getting a bowl before Imad?

And Imad gets a wicket in his first over

 

[Aang_The_last_airbender]

What’s doing an Amir?

Random wides for no reason

 

[jnaveen1980]

There is a lot of purchase for finger spinners here.

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Lol no he is a trundler with zero skills.
He has economy of 9 in t20is.
He should not even play for Pakistan.

That's an incredibly stupid thing to say about someone who is 23 and has just started his cricketing career

 

[Rana]

We are world champions

If it wasn’t for super over and slow NY pitch allowing India to reach our level…this World Cup was in the bag

 

[JaDed]

Ireland lost to Canada.

 

[ethan hunt]

Imad has bowled well in this tournament was unlucky against lucky Pant.Terrible batting tho.

 

[emranabbas]

There has to be an eye test as well. Bowlers like Abbas afridi and Shadab should never be selected for pak.

They will be back

One is umar guls nephew other is saqlain mushtaqs son in law

 

[ethan hunt]

Imad being Pak’s best spinner is a damning indictment of how bad shadab and Nawaz are. Saim’s bowling is underrated.

I m sick of this Rizwan guy's acting.
It boils my blood
Just go do acting in a movie
Get out of here.

 

[Croma]

OOohhhhh 76-7. I expected them to fold and wither away.

WHats he doing? (I am obviously not watching, just following on espncricinfo)

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

Pakistan cricket is back and is back with a bang!

 

[followed]

Lol stupidity is people like you defending these mediocre cricketers with mediocre performance.

 

[IAJ]

Just tuned in, lol they are celebrating as if they just have won the WC, khair this is their level now.

 

[Human786]

78/7 in 13

 

[Croma]

Wow. Haris Rauf is unplayable today?

 

[Croma]

Just tuned in, lol they are celebrating as if they just have won the WC, khair this is their level now.

They expect to be retained in the team for today's performance. Hence the celebrations

 

[Human786]

100 will make the match interesting. Will not be enough I feel, but Ireland can at least be able to land a few blows before going down.

ab kya lagta hai Champa biradar ?

 

[jnaveen1980]

What is Harsha yapping about. How did Pakistan win "more points" against USA. USA was controlling the match for 35 overs before panicking

 

[SpiritOf1903]

 

[Human786]

Chacha Tera tharak ni dur hona lol

Chacha kisko bolta hai nalayak 79/8

 

[jnaveen1980]

What happened there

 

[Croma]

Saim AYub ... today... should bat like Riz-Bar and remain not out.. thats all he has to do... his career is at stake.

 

[Local.Dada]

Pandya was backed as a batsman when he was not bowling fit. Maybe Pakistan team see the same thing in Shadab. He does have some batting talent thought and is best fielder in Pak side. I get it but can’t beleive his bowling has become so tripe. Had a lot of potential.

 

[SpiritOf1903]

What happened there

Pakistan.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Usman Khan could not catch a giant unit like Shaheen with his peripheral vision? lol

 

[RidiculousMan]

Usman Khan should never play for Pakistan. A disgrace. Like a deer in front of headlights.

 

[Misbahs_tuktuk]

does the embarrassment ever stop? why didn't one of them call for it, its quiet stadium , honestly, Usman Khan had to have seen afraid here, how do these guys reach this level and not understand that need for communication and calling.

 

[Croma]

Collission but catch not dropped. hmmm... good

 

[Rana]

So annoyed with Pakistan not batting first here

 

[RidiculousMan]

Usman Khan could not catch a giant unit like Shaheen with his peripheral vision? lol

Maybe he's yet to evolve

 

[JattMaula]

Immy Dada

2 wicket 1 run!

Legend.

 

[NeVerMind]

Pakistan is such a joke of a team even when they take a catch!

 

[Croma]

Imad Wasim .... two wickets... Mamoon wont be happy about this.

Chacha kisko bolta hai nalayak 79/8

Lol chachey thand rakh.
Chacha toh gussa karega. LOL

 

[Local.Dada]

USA would have beaten this Ireland team to be fair.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Pakistan cricket is a comedy circus

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Lol stupidity is people like you defending these mediocre cricketers with mediocre performance.

No stupidity is making judgements on players based on their ESPNCricinfo page instead of actually watching them play.

 

[Thephenom]

Harsha asking the question why doesn’t Rauf learn, it’s because he knows however bad he bowls he will keep his place regardless, whereas you stay focused when you know you have competition

 

[Human786]

Fogg is another ad which gets on my nerves - nahatey kyun nahi hain yeh log !!! Any reason Shadab is always in 11 - his bowling has not been there since 2 years ? 80/9

 

[Croma]

OMG Imad gets 3....

 

[jnaveen1980]

Ireland is in a hurry to catch the flight.

 

[RidiculousMan]

Usman Khan was never in the right position to take the catch as well. Lol

 

[Misbahs_tuktuk]

OMG Imad gets 3....

my worst fear, he will end up captaining the side based on this performance

 

[Croma]

Fogg is another ad which gets on my nerves - nahatey kyun nahi hain yeh log !!! Any reason Shadab is always in 11 - his bowling has not been there since 2 years ? 80/9

Havent you heard about the "Dosti - Yaari" Gang... ?

Lol I have seen enough of this trundler.

Even in this match he's already gone for 23 in 2 overs on this minefield of pitch.

 

[jnaveen1980]

They don't even want to bat 20 overs. Humiliating campaign for them.

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

Usman Khan should never play for Pakistan. A disgrace. Like a deer in front of headlights.

Just embarrassing. Afridi was in place for the catch. This idiot tried to get inside for no reason

 

[Croma]

my worst fear, he will end up captaining the side based on this performance

OMG! That could happen!

 

[Local.Dada]

Amir and Imad will retire with their head held high. Well done

 

[Croma]

Rauf trying to add to his tally and save his spot in the team.

 

[followed]

Just bowl one at his head and then at his shoes.

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Lol I have seen enough of this trundler.

You somehow manage to sound dumber with each response. So maybe just stop replying together.

 

[Asif321]

Imad should have been 3-4 years younger

 

[Croma]

Amir and Imad will retire with their head held high. Well done

There could be a plot twist!

Amir captain and Imad... vice captain .. and Mohammad SHahzad returns!!!!

Just kidding...

 

[RidiculousMan]

Haris should clean this up

 

[Thephenom]

Please mr Kirsten don’t be fooled by this bowling performance

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Waqar is talking absolute rubbish in the comms. box.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Complete dosti yaari.

Babar letting his buddies Imad and Amir stat pad with meaningless wickets.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Waqar is talking absolute rubbish

Waqar and Harsha managed to make this match even more cringeworthy. Quiet a feat

Lol not dumber than you. Who support players like Abbas trundler Afridi with economy of 9.
You deserve this zimbabar's team.

 

[Human786]

Bhogle talks too much - this ain't radio ..... 86/9

 

[Croma]

Waqar is talking absolute rubbish in the comms. box.

whats he saying (Help people like us who arent able to watch live)

 

[RidiculousMan]

Waqar is talking absolute rubbish in the comms. box.

He always talks rubbish

 

[Local.Dada]

Complete dosti yaari.

Babar letting his buddies Imad and Amir stat pad with meaningless wickets.

Yaari-dosti? Weren’t they absolutely killing him on media.

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Imad should have been 3-4 years younger

Could have been if we didn't waste the last 4 years of his career because Mohammad Wasim thought that Nawaz was a better cricketer.

 

[Croma]

Bhogle talks too much - this ain't radio ..... 86/9

He's paid for it. He has to complete his 1000 word per hour quota.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Lol Shadab

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

He always talks rubbish

Still better than Ramiz lol

 

[Croma]

Imad back to try and get his 4th

 

[Thephenom]

I think it’s entertaining

 

[Local.Dada]

Bhogle talks too much - this ain't radio ..... 86/9

He is good in an individual setting when he is analyzing the game. Commentary he is forced to be “entertaining” and he is not.

 

[Human786]

Why would you pick Shadab & bowl him be4 Imad ?

 

[Misbahs_tuktuk]

Lol not dumber than you. Who support players like Abbas trundler Afridi with economy of 9.
You deserve this zimbabar's team.

you give youngsters a chance, the young up an coming players need games at this level to help them improve. not write them off. Its the TTFs, Shadab, Imad, Ifti that need to be dropped

 

[jnaveen1980]

With sensible approach Ireland could have easily scored 135.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

One guy id like to see play for pak in the future is Ihsanullah.

They've ruined him already.

Possibly won't be the same whenever he makes a comeback.

 

[Human786]

89/9 in 16 khatam karo
