Pakistan (171/5) comfortably defeat UAE (140/7) by 31 runs in Match 5 of the Tri-Series

[Shafi]

One parchi replace by another. But Babar and Rizwan are in the same league and out of form.

 

[Nasty Naz]

3 wickets down... again in the PP. An absolutely shambolic batting group.

It's not even like they're putting up PP scores out of the ordinary while losing wickets constantly. They literally can't bat a single PP without being not just one wicket, but multiple wickets down. A terrible group of batters who simply lack the ability to stand at the crease consistently.

 

[Asif321]

After Sarfraz era Pakistan team always have looked bunch of crap .

 

[sweep_shot]

PAK - 50/3 (6 overs).

Good start but lost 1 wicket too many.

 

[castortroy]

India will basically steamroll every team in the Asia cup

 

[zahid01]

Captain marvellous on his way rizbab will be delighted by his performance.

 

[Devadwal]

Can't tell if Pakistan suck
or if UAE are much improved

UAE is already defeated Bangladesh in a T20 series earlier this year

 

[castortroy]

This Brevis of SA is the real deal

 

[Asad T]

I've noticed Pakistan always suffers from a mental effect.

They lose one game and then tend to go on a losing streak even vs Minnows

and that losing streak has lasted since 2022

 

[Asif321]

Harris has a chance to prove his worth today .

 

[zahid01]

PAK - 50/3 (6 overs).

Sorry mate good start lost three wickets to part timers not good enough

 

[sweep_shot]

They do not have Rohit and Kohli anymore.

Youngsters they have are untested in big tournaments.

I have a feeling India may not go to final.

 

[sweep_shot]

In T20, part-timers often get wickets. No surprise here.

I remember Root got Gayle out in 1st over of 2016 WC final. It can happen.

 

[Adnan_Ilyas]

Pakistan suck

 

[Shafi]

PCB actually runs by SAYA Corporation betting agency.

 

[indianpanacea]

I wonder Pakistan is playing against UAE or Australia

 

[castortroy]

They do not have Rohit and Kohli anymore.

Youngsters they have are untested in big tournaments.

I have a feeling India may not go to final.

Lol have you seen their young batters

They will absolutely demolish all the team in the cup

 

[ads101]

We'll win this. But this match will tell us nothing. I dont know why fakhar is at 3. I have a feeling he will perform here, but against uae this will tell us nothing of his ability at 3. Haris being sent at 5 today which he never will be done in the future given Hasan will usually come in there. We should have a predictable batting order for now as we haven't worked out where our batsmen should actually bat middle order yet. I feel bad for Haris, guy is being thrown anywhere in the order. Even if he performs here, hes not going to be no.5 in the future.

Haris is our young batsman for the future, and also generally one of our most performing batsmen in psl at no.3. I dont know what the harm was giving him 3. And the same with Fakhar we know he's bad at 3, why not give him the chance mid or lower order again.

 

[Asif321]

Harris needs a 80 or ton to compensate for all the crap he has done so far

 

[zahid01]

In T20, part-timers often get wickets. No surprise here.

I remember Root got Gayle out in 1st over of 2016 WC final. It can happen.

But we are repeating these performance game after game i can understand now and then you lose wickets in pursuit of quick runs.

 

[Devadwal]

This is even make more stronger team india in T20 cricket

 

[sweep_shot]

Yes. I have seen them. They are IPL superstars and home track bullies.

They are yet to face strong opponents in big events. This Asia Cup is their first proper assignment.

 

[castortroy]

Youngsters they have are untested in big tournaments.

Also, their players play in the ipl in front of thousands of fans.

Playing against minnows like pak, Afghanistan, Srilanka doesn't make it a big tournament

 

[sweep_shot]

PAK - 70/3 (8.1 overs).

Very good run-rate. They should go past 200.

 

[indianpanacea]

I guess problem is with batting order and playing too many allrounders.
Among M.nawaz and Fahim only one should play while both muqim and Abrar should play
My XI would be
Saim
Fakhar
M.Haris
Hassan Nawaz
Salman
Talat
Faheem
Abrar
Muqim
Shaheen
Mirza

No. International cricket is more challenging.

Also, I think IPL has a lot of fixing going on. There was an Al-Jazeera documentary regarding this. I question the credibility of IPL.

BD toured India for a T20 series last year and Abhishek Sharma was a walking wicket (scored 16, 15, and 4).

 

[Devadwal]

Haider Ali comes to attack and time for Haris to find as well

 

[sweep_shot]

PAK - 74/3 (9.3 overs).

 

[Devadwal]

Haider Ali comes to attack and time for Haris to find as well

Gone* .as I predicted .lol

 

[ads101]

Haider Ali is actually a good bowler. I see he's from Pakistan maybe we could use him lol.

 

[Asif321]

This should be Harris last game . Enough torture

 

[Shafi]

How long Haris will play!!! Just another over-hyped parchi

 

[sweep_shot]

Haris is out.

Pakistan are in a bit of a hole now.

74/4 (10 overs).

 

[Asif321]

First ,4 years had to see babar Rizwan torture now have to see this crap . Missing 2017-2019 team

 

[castortroy]

You guys always do this before big matches against India. Convince yourself that they will struggle and pak will have a chance.

It will be one of the most one sided matches you will ever seen

 

[Adnan_Ilyas]

Haris needs to be dropped

 

[Energy]

This is where the coaching fails- why can't they work with Haris to train him to find a method in playing spin. You can't be this vulnerable each time.

 

[Champ_Pal]

All of the UAE players seem to be from Pakistan except a couple of them. Would have been nice to hear if they were conversing in Arabic instead of Hindi/Urdu.
At the moment UAE team looks more like a Pak-B team.

 

[Justcrazy]

74 . 4

10 overs.

 

[sweep_shot]

Haider Ali is actually a good bowler. I see he's from Pakistan maybe we could use him lol.

UAE's Mohammad Waseem is a great batter. Great hitter.

He is a Pakistani. Pakistan should've tried to get him instead of Usman Khan. LOL.

 

[Ahmed216]

Mashallah swashbuckling 14 off 17 balls from the legendary 'modern day' wk/bat.

Its heartbreaking to see UAE players giving wild send offs to our players.

If this continues for long I might have to stop watching to relieve some stress.

 

[Devadwal]

What’s the point? You won’t be facing spinners of Rashid and Noor quality

Might as well let the batters have a free run today and get their confidence up

They are scoring nice free runs . Pakistan 74/4
Saim -11
Farhan -16
Agha- 7
Haris- 14(17)*

 

[Nasty Naz]

God what a disgusting batting group. Pakistan are at an all time low across formats.

 

[cricfan432]

I've noticed Pakistan always suffers from a mental effect.

More like technical errors, haris got out as usual to spin. Saim on offside like he did in West indies. Salman got jaffa.

 

[LordJames]

Not many speak Arabic in UAE, its either English Urdu, Hindi, Punjabi, Dari or Pushto..hardly hear Arabic

O Balochi too from Pakistani and Irani people.

 

[sweep_shot]

This is where the coaching fails- why can't they work with Haris to train him to find a method in playing spin. You can't be this vulnerable each time.

Haris has a very poor batting technique. I think Shaheen, Haris Rauf, and Naseem have better batting techniques than Haris.

Here are his stats. He doesn't average 30 in any format.

 

[cricfan432]

Ball is turning square, you cant have pitches like this in t20. Even hasan nawaz is struggling. Test match level pitch

 

[ads101]

UAE's Mohammad Waseem is a great batter. Great hitter.

He is a Pakistani. Pakistan should've tried to get him instead of Usman Khan. LOL.

Havent seen him much yet. Though why not take both .

But you can see here, Haider Ali, the batsmen are actually afraid batting against him. I had no idea UAE had a bowler like that. Look he got another one. Insane.

 

[Asif321]

Hahaha another fraud gone

 

[Nasty Naz]

Hahaha what a terrible batting group. 2nd time they're playing this guy and still have no clue how to navigate him.

 

[Shafi]

Another parchi gone!!!

 

[Devadwal]

Wow Haider Ali is bowling like magician. Really unplayable.

Hasan Nawaz gone for 4

Pakistan 80/5

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Has the downfall of Hesson and co started already?

 

[Asif321]

Ball is turning square, you cant have pitches like this in t20. Even hasan nawaz is struggling. Test match level pitch

You are saying “even” as if some kohli is stuggling

 

[Shafi]

Hopefully we'll not make it to final to be humilited by Afg bros.

Check Muhammad Waseem's stats. He averages 38 with a strike-rate of 156+. His techniques are good also.

Pakistan missed a gem by letting him play for UAE.

The biggest red flag is an average of 25 in First Class Cricket (and that includes one not-out). It suggests he doesn't have much experience of building an innings.

 

[Adnan_Ilyas]

Can Pakistan get any worse?

But we took Usman Khan instead loll. Honestly, even if we had someone like Usman Khawaja. He would have never preformed for Pakistan because our setup is just so toxic

 

[Asif321]

Yeh toh pakka hai jab tak mein captain hu hum khelnege aisey hi

 

[Omer2002]

guys we were expected to win this ..they beat kiwis and bangladesh

Lol who is he? A tulla player

Pakistan current team is dull and you can't make them world beater.

Yeah that's really good, I'd take him.

 

[sweep_shot]

LOL. Yup.

Should've taken Waseem.

Usman Khan isn't that great.

 

[RyanRyan10]

Another parchi gone!!!

How is he a Parchi?

 

[SherWaqar]

This team is beghairat

 

[khyberlion]

What a pathetic bunch.

 

[Devadwal]

Fakhar is still there Pakistan should look to score 170+ from here.

Fakhar Plus two allrounder can do the job for Pakistan.

 

[RyanRyan10]

guys we were expected to win this ..they beat kiwis and bangladesh

NZ 2nd string side

UAE's Haider Ali: 2-0-4-2.

Great bowling.

 

[ads101]

UAE fielding is pretty bad they're letting down their bowlers. But their bowlers are actually bowling pretty well.

 

[Asif321]

Only Fakhar is one player who has proved himself at this level . Rest all have nothing to claim neither in domestic nor international

 

[TexasRattlesnake]

guys we were expected to win this ..they beat kiwis and bangladesh

when did they win against kiwis?

that series was 1-4 and that too against a bad team.

 

[sweep_shot]

Pakistan is playing 3 pacers in Sharjah. Why? It is a spin-friendly ground.

Sufiyan should've played.

 

[Ahmed216]

If a loss to UAE helps get rid of jaahil Aqib Javed and fraud Hesson I am ready to take it

 

[sweep_shot]

when did they win against kiwis?

that series was 1-4 and that too against a bad team.

NZ lost a T20 game to UAE last time NZ toured UAE.

He was talking about UAE. They beat NZ in one T20 and Bangladesh in a T20 series

 

[Asif321]

For Asia cup need to drop Saim and Harris for Talat and Khushdil . Fakhar opens .
