Pakistan (144/3) stroll to a 7-wicket triumph in 3rd ODI to seal series 2-1 against South Africa (143)

[Human786]

turn ... 270 should be decent barring heavy dew .
24/0

 

[jnaveen1980]

Saffers will look to keep wickets and start smashing from the 30th to the 50th to get to 330.

Will be hard. Pakistan has a lot of part timers. With field spread they will collapse. They can't allow Saim to get away for 3 overs. That is criminal

 

[Deewana Mastana]

At this point weather is pretty cool so no problem at all . People's definitely enjoy without roofs but problem is there are no chair so people's are sitting on bricks. That's the issue.

Roofs are important in SC regardless the time of year they play in.

Proper infrastructure is needed here in Faisalabad especially when you're returning to play here after 20 years.

Hopefully PCB looks into this if it wants to start brining international cricket back here.

 

[TheSultan]

This is just ridiculous - Saim Ayub taking the new ball. These guys are just clutching hoping something will work.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

It’s going to spin

Should've dropped Talat or Faheem for another spinner

 

[Omer2002]

I think faheem cud have been dropped for a batter on a spinning wicket but we hardly have any batters

 

[jnaveen1980]

For a 19 year old compactness is impeccable. Incredible growth.

 

[Devadwal]

No slip? What is this captaincy @Rana ?

 

[Omer2002]

For a 19 year old compactness is impeccable. Incredible growth.

Yes and look at our lads lack of nourishments

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Will be hard. Pakistan has a lot of part timers. With field spread they will collapse. They can't allow Saim to get away for 3 overs. That is criminal

Don't worry Rauf is back so Saffers will cash in regardless. Ball will come nicely off the bat with no movement or variations.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Any time i tune in they this vernon goes "In your days Ramiz.... " lol He is a pretty bad commentator.

 

[Human786]

Rauf bhi pitt raha hai 32/0

 

[Deewana Mastana]

As I said that back to back boundaries from Pretorius off Rauf already

 

[jnaveen1980]

Don't worry Rauf is back so Saffers will cash in regardless. Ball will come nicely off the bat with no movement or variations.

Can't argue with that.

 

[Omer2002]

Maybe agha shud have been on

 

[Rana]

Beautiful drive

 

[jnaveen1980]

Pace vs talent - Ramiz Raja is like a bad cad wreck you can't look away.

 

[Devadwal]

Three boundary in Rauf 1st over

 

[hamzie]

haris doing haris stuff
why is he even in the squad

 

[Rana]

Slaps pace

Proper left handed opener

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Rauf as usual back after a break still bowling brainless. 12 off his first over.

 

[Human786]

36/0 in 7

 

[jnaveen1980]

Graeme smith would be proud of that shot. Great shot.

 

[BouncerGuy]

Run machine back with his usual pathetic bowling...

 

[Rana]

Rauf made sure to preserve “modrun kirkit”

 

[m.shah]

How the hell is Haris playing ahead of Wasim. Purely on Lahore Qalandar quota

 

[Rana]

Graeme smith would be proud of that shot. Great shot.

They are different styles of openers

I don’t think Smith played with wrists as much

 

[Deewana Mastana]

They're starting to tee off now as they've seen off the first 6.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Amir Sohali always starts talking like he has a plan world doesn't know about. By the time he finishes his thought it is just mhe lol

 

[Devadwal]

Good bowling by saim. Tike to bring Salman Agha from other end

 

[Human786]

Lady is commenting about Rauf's radar & the shampoo ...

 

[jnaveen1980]

They are different styles of openers

I don’t think Smith played with wrists as much

SMith a backfoot player. This guy's backshoot shots are similar to most of the typical SOuth African left handers. Rickleton, Smith. QDK is different though.

 

[Rana]

Amir Sohali always starts talking like he has a plan world doesn't know about. By the time he finishes his thought it is just mhe lol

“Averages matter more in T20 cricket. Not strike rates”.

 

[Aqib_mustafa]

That's why i will always prefer spinners over useless pace which unfortunately pakistan has obsession with pace look at rauf tapiya bowl fast ball goes to the boundry even faster pace is useless spinners always wins for me.

 

[Human786]

Amir Sohali always starts talking like he has a plan world doesn't know about. By the time he finishes his thought it is just mhe lol

If you need to inflict gruesome torture on some1 , surround him on 3 sides with Sohail , Daqar & Ramiz commenting nonstop ... 41/0

 

[BouncerGuy]

No slip? What is this captaincy @Rana ?

Rizwan ki ghalti ha bhai.... RIzwan and Babar's fault

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Shaheen showing how he shouldn't be captaining right now.

Aamer Sohail saying something that makes sense is to have a slip

 

[jnaveen1980]

I like this dude already Pretorius . The execution is pure. Crisp noise. You watch QDK, ABDV recently Brevis, this kid the bat sound is just divine

 

[imshally81]

Why Harris in the team?

 

[Deewana Mastana]

I like this dude already Pretorius . The execution is pure. Crisp noise. You watch QDK, ABDV recently Brevis, this kid the bat sound is just divine

It's a lovely crunching sound off the bat.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Why Harris in the team?

To play for the opposition

 

[Omer2002]

To play for the opposition

Lolll

 

[Ball Blazer]

Why Harris in the team?

Which team does Shaheen lead in PSL? Which team does Haris play for in PSL? Hope you can build the connection

 

[imshally81]

Need 30 overs of spinners here

 

[Rana]

Which team does Shaheen lead in PSL? Which team does Haris play for in PSL? Hope you can build the connection

But but sarr, there was no Multan/KPK connection when Rizwan was captain??

 

[imshally81]

Which team does Shaheen lead in PSL? Which team does Haris play for in PSL? Hope you can build the connection

Unfortunately too many passengers in the team

Harris Rauf
Faheem Ashraf
Hussain Talat

 

[imshally81]

But but sarr, there was no Multan/KPK connection when Rizwan was captain??

Rizwan is out of the world

 

[Rana]

“There haven’t been any plays and misses, there haven’t been any outside edges….”

Looks like Urooj is on another planet

The same planet where’s football and cricket are the same sport @Kianig89

 

[Sachin fan]

But unfair they are making Haris Rauf bowl on a different pitch.

 

[AZulfi]

Third game in a row in which Pak failed to take a wicket during PP!

Sedate start by South Africa. 49/0 in the 11th over

However, with wickets in hand, they could explode anytime soon

 

[Human786]

Unfortunately too many passengers in the team

Harris Rauf
Faheem Ashraf
Hussain Talat

Faheem will shock everyone today .
Urooj is the best amongst this lot . 49/0
ps- Sohail is rude

 

[BouncerGuy]

Unfortunately too many passengers in the team

Harris Rauf
Faheem Ashraf
Hussain Talat

Faheem has been doing a great job... No sure what are you watching?

 

[Rana]

“I know you are a dentist, but you have to see an optometrist”

I would clap Sohail under the ear if he talks to my daughter like that.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

“I know you are a dentist, but you have to see an optometrist”

I would clap Sohail under the ear if he talks to my daughter like that.

That was a pathetic comment. There should be consequences for making such comments on air.

 

[Rana]

What kind of clown who argues averages are more vital in T20 cricket than strike rates tells others to see an optometrist??

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Saffers better pray there's no dew.

One thing smacking bowlers under lights with heavy dew. Quite another to do that on a dry, turgid wicket.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Are Rauf and Shaheen thick buddies off the field?

 

[Rana]

That was a pathetic comment. There should be consequences for making such comments on air.

It will be brushed under the carpet. Pakistanis are generally too dumb to realise how insensitive saying things like this is.

 

[imshally81]

Faheem has been doing a great job... No sure what are you watching?

Exactly ...he was MOM in last games

 

[Sachin fan]

This pitch will become easier in the second half, SA made a mistake chosing to bat first.

 

[jnaveen1980]

That was a pathetic comment. There should be consequences for making such comments on air.

He is doing commentary for 20 years. lol Think about it. In 2007 commentary when Ireland was slaying down pakistan, Amir was asking "Would the groundsmen prepare a pitch like this for West Indies" something like this to Ian Bishop. Stone cold silence from Bishop for a while lol Very awkward moment.

 

[BouncerGuy]

Saim can play a role of Hafeez type player... Very good so far... He just need to not forget his roots in batting

 

[Nikhil_cric]

It will be brushed under the carpet. Pakistanis are generally too dumb to realise how insensitive saying things like this is.

Not just Pakistanis. Apparently, Philander called Urooj a housewife or something in the last match .

 

[TheSultan]

What is this obsession with part time bowling - pathetic

 

[Rana]

Salman just can’t bowl to left handers even on flat tracks

 

[Omer2002]

Agha shudnt have bowled he is a pie bowler shud have been abrar

 

[Ball Blazer]

But but sarr, there was no Multan/KPK connection when Rizwan was captain??

Why do you have to bring Rizwan and Babar everywhere? Get over this obsession. Haris has been doing nothing except leaking runs for last many matches. I hope you agree?

 

[Rana]

“They got a Mayyur of his bowling”

 

[DeadlyVenom]

14 overs, half bowled by a part timer spinner.

This guy Aqib Javed has destroyed us completely

 

[Rana]

Why do you have to bring Rizwan and Babar everywhere? Get over this obsession. Haris has been doing nothing except leaking runs for last many matches. I hope you agree?

Yes, I have an unhealthy obsession with calling out inconsistencies and double standards I’m afraid.

I need to see a psychiatrist to deal with my issue.

 

[PakPremi]

You have Abrar and Nawaz in the team why resort to giving Agha an over?
Also over bowling Saim against the same batsmen

 

[Human786]

terrific start ... 71/0 in 14

 

[BouncerGuy]

O bhai... Nawaz ya abrar ko laga

 

[Rana]

The coach is on the sidelines

Big business!’

 

[BouncerGuy]

Abrar should be bowling here... instead of Salman

 

[Human786]

out

 

[Human786]

Abrar should be bowling here... instead of Salman

dekha

 

[imshally81]

Gone

 

[jnaveen1980]

Ramiz Raja is mixing up pretorious and proteas awfully.

 

[PakPremi]

Yes, I have an unhealthy obsession with calling out inconsistencies and double standards I’m afraid.

I need to see a psychiatrist to deal with my issue.

Then criticise Shaheen favouring his pals like Haris over Wasim J.
