Pakistan (134) fall short as Australia (147/9) win the second T20I by 13 runs taking unassailable 2-0 lead with 1 game remaining

[DeadlyVenom]

For first few overs, it looked like aus have started chasing yesterday's India score (283)

Yes bro that's true the whole world including Aussie batsmen are obsessed with India's score yesterday.

 

[Vikram1989]

9 mnts behind the schedule already

 

[Devadwal]

Taking wickets are the best possible way to stop the runs flow in T20 cricket .

Good comeback by Pakistan.

Australia 56/3

 

[PakFan2010]

Rauf and Abbas are better T20 bowlers than Naseem and Shaheen.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Cha gya Afridi

 

[jnaveen1980]

Yes bro that's true the whole world including Aussie batsmen are obsessed with India's score yesterday.

These guys are powerful strikers alright. But little limited in terms of shot selection. Can be trapped.

 

[mango_bite77]

Abbas is must pick for shorter format.

 

[kingusama92]

Great come back from Pakistan!

 

[jnaveen1980]

Brainless swipes every ball

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Abbas get in!!!

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Brainless swipes every ball

They're trying to emulate 285

 

[mango_bite77]

Just saw Naseem has already dropped a chance with 16 runs in his first over. Horrible !

 

[Devadwal]

These guys are powerful strikers alright. But little limited in terms of shot selection. Can be trapped.

They are one dimensional player's

 

[MenInG]

Good captaincy Riz also

 

[jnaveen1980]

This is such a light weight batting unit for Australia. So they should take it deep

 

[Ali T]

Nice comeback from Pakistan!

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Squared up but dropped

 

[jnaveen1980]

wow Next is Tim David? lol

 

[emranabbas]

2 drops already

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

Agha The Vive Captain.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

These guys are powerful strikers alright. But little limited in terms of shot selection. Can be trapped.

Tbh they are quite hackish but they have a high ceiling for improvement.

 

[Aviator]

Look at the face of this smiling rat... Drops a dolly!

 

[Ahmed216]

What was that effort from Salman lol?

As if he didn't want the ball to come his way.

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

Agha doesn't deserve to be in t20 team, again mixing formats

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Harris is convinced. Could look silly

 

[jnaveen1980]

Australia is repeatedly getting squared up suggesting they try to play through leg side.

 

[angrypathan]

Fitteh mooh

 

[emranabbas]

Rizwan don't seem happy with this review

 

[Ahmed216]

2 drops already man Pak can be so frustrating to watch

 

[mango_bite77]

Agha yaar what are u doing

 

[MenInG]

Good captaincy again Riz - not taking that DRS

 

[MenInG]

Agha yaar what are u doing

Very disappointing

 

[Ali T]

Haris Rauf is seriously on fire.

 

[Mohraheem]

Agha doesn't deserve to be in t20 team, again mixing formats

He deserve a spot! He is better Thn Chacha … Salman deserves 2 years of chances ..

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Haris Rauf loves bowling in Australia

 

[Ahmed216]

Agha The Vive Captain.

Looks like a appointment

 

[jnaveen1980]

Tbh they are quite hackish but they have a high ceiling for improvement.

One of the ugliest top order you could assemble lol Not one player is watchable in this line up.

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

Below par fielding, costing Pakistan

 

[jnaveen1980]

What happened to Mitch Marsh? Injured? He is a proper stroke player though compared to these guys.

 

[RidiculousMan]

Salman is owed to score as many runs as Stoinis will today

 

[Nikhil_cric]

This ultra aggressive batting will only work if you have a bit more depth. Hardie at #7 makes this lineup quite shallow.

 

[mango_bite77]

Very disappointing

He is a good test player, and to some extent ODI.

Doesn't have any skill to be in this format.

 

[jnaveen1980]

This ultra aggressive batting will only work if you have a bit more depth. Hardie at #7 makes this lineup quite shallow.

Also you need a left hander in between. Sending so many right handers one after another makes the life of bowlers easy.

 

[Farabi]

Abbas Afridi screams like he’s bowling 155

 

[MenInG]

H

He is a good test player, and to some extent ODI.

Doesn't have any skill to be in this format.

He's a good fielder so bit shocking

 

[Ahmed216]

AA mixing it up well

 

[MenInG]

Abbas Afridi screams like he’s bowling 155

Takes wickets, slow scoring rate = what else do you need?

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Also you need a left hander in between. Sending so many right handers one after another makes the life of bowlers easy.

Yep. Can't have a lineup of all right handers . Very one dimensional lineup.

This looks like an Indian lineup from 3 years ago. No left handers and no batting depth

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

Abbas and Rauf has somehow found the length hack.

Shaheen still struggling since last 3 years

 

[jnaveen1980]

SCG doesn't bounce this much usually.

 

[Ahmed216]

SCG doesn't bounce this much usually.

What is your assessment of this pitch?

 

[Mohraheem]

Yea Ifthikhar too

 

[jnaveen1980]

These guys are getting old i suppose. Maxwell. Repeatedly getting fooled by slower ones

 

[Omer2002]

Shaheen and naseem are awful full stop. I am not even calling one day victory a series win as Aussies were just taking tue micky out of us not once in the three matches Aussies batted more than 30 overs

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

These guys are getting old i suppose. Maxwell. Repeatedly getting fooled by slower ones

True but Abbas has much better slower one compared to any other bowler in Pakistan

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Just seen @mominsaigol

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Love seeing a left arm leggie in action.


Best of luck to this lad

 

[Ahmed216]

Wow so looking forward to see the chinaman bowl

 

[jnaveen1980]

What is your assessment of this pitch?

Good bounce. Looks like a very good batting wicket. LIttle dry which will help cutters.

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

Just seen @mominsaigol

What is he wearing

 

[Ahmed216]

Wow so looking forward to see the chinaman bowl

Bowling too quick atm

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Just seen @mominsaigol

Is he at the match. No wonder JFM performed.

 

[Farabi]

Takes wickets, slow scoring rate = what else do you need?

No complaints. Talking about the loud screams

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

Shaheen now, pathetic team deserves to be hammered

 

[emranabbas]

Mashallah 3rd drop

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Dropped then 4. Always happens.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Australia LOI batting unit looks awful lol That ball should have been in third tier

 

[mango_bite77]

Shaheen bhagairat

 

[volcyz]

Shaheen has dropped more catches than he actually catches

 

[Ali T]

third drop!

 

[Ahmed216]

Can't hope to win if you drop so many catches.
Dents the team morale too badly

 

[Deewana Mastana]

What is he wearing

Aussie zindabad

 

[DeadlyVenom]

What an over from the youngster. Aussies all at sea for most of it.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Good first over

 

[Ahmed216]

What is Rizwan doing lol?

4th drop

 

[kingusama92]

Game is now reminding me of classic 90s Pakistani cricket. Good bowling and shocking fielding.

 

[Omer2002]

3 drops thats normal...he is ballin too quixk..another drop i am sure rizwan dropped it 4 drops

 

[Ali T]

Sufyan looks nervous. Not able to find a suitable line and length.
Quite fast through the air and is getting some turn. Will be interested to see how he develops. Looks like he could be threatening if he gets the ball in the right areas.

Yes he does get some bite off the surface

 

[Ahmed216]

Why the hell do they laugh after dropping catches? Makes me want to break my TV
