Pakistan (169/1) thrash Australia (163) by 9 wickets in the second ODI to level the 3-match series 1-1

Naseem has been so unlucky in this game but he now has 1 wicket. Deserved that
 
Questionable captaincy by Rizwan, and let’s not act like those 4 catches are anything extraordinary, this is routine stuff in every game. Oh, and as I type, another one bites the dust. Make that 5 catches now by the GOAT keeper. Just another day on the field!
 
Hard to believe Pakistan have demolished Australia like this.

Just need to ensure they get the remaining tail not get some sort of extended partnership and leave them with a small enough target to chase.
 
Haris deserves a 5fer, will get one of the best bowling figures for a Pakistani in Australia.
 
I like how they learnt from the first match and not bowling starc at short length. Keeping it full. Nice. Make him play. Make him get on the front foot.
 
It makes me so happy to see ausies lose, they’re always so full of themselves and were talking about the rest of the summer instead of pakistan
 
Rauf with a beautiful yorker. Pakistan learnt their lesson very well. And well defended by Cummins, this guy is ALERT.
 
Aussies not watching ODIs in Australia? I see a few empty seats.
 
Captain Blank continues to do excellent job both captaining and behind the stumps keeping. Let's hope Cummins does not spoil the party again.
 
First time enjoy the watching Pakistan pacers performance only due to Rizwan :kp
 
I love how Pakistan, and Australia share a common manly history of cricket of charismatic strong fast bowlers. Like you sense a mutual respect between Australia and Pakistan in terms of bowling prowess. It goes from the days of Lillee and Khan to Lee and Shabby.
 
Good effort by Afridi but i always get scared whenever he dives. Landed on his behind and thankfully not on his knee.
 
Pakistanis are too alpha ngl, me being in canada, if i see an alpha brown guy, 9/10 times its a Pakistani. Although i do feel saying brown in itself is an obnoxious term because its not a singular ethnic group in terms of looks and habits.
 
Love the effort Shaheen but honestly fine with it if he just lets that go for four. I don't want him to needlessly risk injuries like that.
 
Awful over from Naseem. Need to put Shaheen on ASAP and finish the tail.
 
What an effort by Hasnain. BEASTLY. And take the DRS COMEONNNN.
 
The pitch is quite decent for batting, but Australian batsmen have played stupid shots to land themselves in a hole.

Anything below 250 is easily chaseable, but we all know what our boys will do.

Honestly I understand the rizwan hate sometimes, he does things that get on my nerves too, but if you’re a rizwan hater and you’re still trying to find ways to hate him when he’s been captaining so well, your opinion should be void because it’s obvious bias

These people just hate a person and then it's for life without any rhyme or reason. Even if Rizwan saved them from a burning house they will blame him for feeling cold outside.
 
Well deserved, well deserved. What a come back by Haris.
 
Well done Haris, bowled well this series and as usual with heart but this time staying calm too.
 
Credit to Rizwan for not only the good captaincy, constant field changes and bowling rotation but also being automatic with his keeping as usual. Keeping in Australian condition when you're not used to be it can be difficult with the extra bounce but he's been incredible as always and continues to take his catches.
 
Rauf and Shaheen have bowled like the experienced pros finally after multiple Aussie tours

Maybe I jinxed him there but even the best have some misses.
 
Rizwan is asking Zampa if he should take it HAHAHAHAHA

Rizwan the actor mannnnn
 
Rizwan's captaincy has been brilliant today. Very aggressive. To achieve this with four bowlers essentially is outstanding. The best thing was his use of Haris Rauf, only using him for 2-3 over bursts which ensured that he was effective and had that pace without getting tired. All while nearly breaking a world record for most catches by a keeper. He could still achieve it.

The difference between Babar and Rizwan's captaincy is night and day.
