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

[Plumb]

those who are calling players parchi and blah blah must know its the pak fans who are so mediocre and below avg who appreciates a "no look shot" "a cover drive" and hype the player to make him look like the next greatest thing ever. In pakistan batting lineup there isnt anyone who can compete against a quality bowling lineup. They are hacks and technically flawed players who came from our rotten cricketing systems.

It will continue to do so, we will be playing qualifying rounds for worldcup pretty soon. Mark this.

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

Saim should play. He can bat and bowl. His bowling can be handy in UAE.

Haris should definitely be dropped.

 

[Devadwal]

Don't take chance against Haider Ali. He is bowling beautifully.

He has only one over left.

 

[sweep_shot]

Haider Ali is bowling excellent --> 3-0-7-2.

 

[Champ_Pal]

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.

Would be nice of UAE team carves their own identity with Arabic as language rather than players speaking a language that even I can understand. Someone living in UAE should learn their language eventually. Especially the ones that are born in UAE.

For a minnow, UAE is sweating Pakistan and ran close to Afghanistan. On these pitches, they can easily beat teams like Bangladesh and even SENA countries on their day.

 

[RyanRyan10]

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

Lost twice to Uganda recently

 

[khyberlion]

Haider Ali is far better than our garbage spinners. Even our so called wrist spinners won't get as much turn. Someone like saim turns the ball more than our specialist spinners such is the state.

 

[Asif321]

Saim should play. He can bat and bowl. His bowling can be handy in UAE.

Haris should definitely be dropped.

According to Agha Haris is a future legend so doubt he will be dropped

They have already beaten Bangladesh in a series. Update yourself.

 

[ask_analyse_act]

Chances should be given to talat, khushdil, Wasim jr and Mirza. We already have one foot in the final.

how , if UAE wins 2 games then everybody equal points and RR comes into play...

how about drop from the tournament, that will save a lot of embarrassment

 

[Champ_Pal]

He is bowling like a better version of Axar Patel. Quick trajectory and very accurate. Axar can learn a thing or two from Hyder Ali.

 

[Asad T]

wild that haider ali only conceded 3 runs bowling into the arc of 2 lefies
well done lad

 

[Asif321]

Rape case survivor Haider Ali can come back into this batting set up .

 

[Champ_Pal]

They have already beaten Bangladesh in a series. Update yourself.

They have the talent to beat weaker batting lineups.

 

[Plumb]

wow they can't play Ethan AKA the Murali

It's like watching zimbo and Rizwan batting again.
This is depressing to watch. Pakistan should stop playing cricket. Cricket is not their cup of tea. They should try their hand at gulli danda or something like that

 

[Ummii]

I'm still confused, why they are avoiding playing both spinners (Abrar and Sufiyan). Is it because Shadab's spot already locked in when he returns?

 

[Sachin fan]

Haris will play match winning innings in the final and in Asia cup against India.

 

[sweep_shot]

PAK - 95/5 (14.5 overs).

Pakistan need some big overs. UAE are ahead currently.

 

[Sachin fan]

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

The same Fakhar who is crawling worse than Rizbar? And didn't Saim play a match winning innings just the other day?

 

[Plumb]

Yes Shadab will return and do his acting like he was about to take a wicket on every ball.. instead he ll get smacked all around the park.

 

[Devadwal]

Fakhar is so lucky. Wow

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Pakistan fans need to understand something that I understood after the USA loss.

No low is too low for this team. Just when you think they have hit rock bottom, they somehow find a way to surprise you.

There was a time when I was very emotionally involved in cricket. But I've found that it's just not worth it. Best to follow from a distance and disconnect yourself emotionally because this team is not good enough to warrant that kind of time and energy.

 

[sweep_shot]

Six from Nawaz.

100 is up.

Haider Ali has played first class cricket Pakistan if i remember it was mentioned in the commentary box.
He is pretty good better than Pakistani spinners by far.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

UAE Haider Ali done to our team what PK Haider Ali was accused of doing in UK

 

[Asif321]

2 experienced campaigners

Catch drop.

Fakhar survives.

UAE fielding. This game would have been wrapped up if not for it.

UAE fielding is pathetic otherwise Pakistan is Deep trouble.

Catch dropped

Haha dropped again

 

[Devadwal]

Back to back catch dropped . Hahha

 

[Mainul]

Bring back Rizwan

 

[sweep_shot]

Another drop. What's going on? LOL. Both were easy catches.

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Pakistan should count themselves lucky that the fielders from the other team also happen to be Pakistani lol

 

[sweep_shot]

Haha dropped again

2nd one was a dolly. Lazy fielding.

 

[Champ_Pal]

UAE fielding is school level. They look scared to catch the ball. Perhaps worried it might hurt their fingers

Understood that 10-15 yrs ago. This mediocre team ll win a big game here and there nothing more to look into. How they played the last worldcup and how unprofessional these players behaved in last worldcup was just the confirmation

Haider Ali should have gotten 4 wickets. Pathetic fielding from UAE fielders(Pakistani)

Fielding standards are bound to be rubbish when you essentially have expat PAK players

Its time to ban our cricket team. They just don't have it. More than 20 years team is like this. Soon we will not even qualify for WC.

I understood this 10 years ago. Players are not honest with themselves let alone us fans, that's excluding how poor they are in first place. There is a reason why instead of improving they all decline.

 

[LordJames]

The mighty UAE against PAK...

 

[Ummii]

What a no brainer, despite our pacers struggling against UAE in the initial overs last time, we're still going in with three fast bowlers.

We just have to accept the fact that our pacers doesn't have that firepower anymore.
On these kinds of conditions, we should be attacking with four spinners (Saim, Abrar, Sufiyan, and Nawaz)

 

[Mainul]

If UAE lose this it is due to their fielding.

Yes, Pakistan have been very lucky. If they can score 130 it will be enough

I thought zimbo and Babar made this team pathetic but these losers are cut from the same cloth as well.
Get rid of all these losers and bring u-19 guys and prepare them for the better tomorrow.

We have turned a corner @RidiculousMan

 

[Mainul]

Intesting stat. Before this game Fakhar had exactly 2000 runs in exactly 100 T20Is

 

[sweep_shot]

UAE fielding is club level. Reminds me of my local league fielders.

 

[Usman Chadda]

This will keep happening, there is not much quality in this batting lineup.

What I fail to understand is why they slow down in the middle.

 

[sweep_shot]

PAK - 118/5 (17 overs).

How much more can they get? I think they should aim for 160.

Pakistanis should find something else to love than these clowns.
The funds given to these losers should be given to someone like arshad nadeem who broke olympics record.

Bring back Rizwan

maaf kardo bhai!
At least playing with current team, we can excuse that we are trying out our "new" or "B team".

 

[Devadwal]

Misfield and four.

It was simple. When Babar and Rizwan clicked Pak won. But unrealistic expectations and unnecessary pressure affected them and here we are..
Now without them we are UAE level or may be even worse

[ads101]

What annoys me is people will look at that innings and say Fakhar performed at 3. He's been lucky to stay in because of UAE fielding. Did very little upfront playing against his natural game. And then scored a nice six once set. Just doesn't use the no.3 position to his advantage nor is comfortable. This is a common theme by fakhar even when he scores a decent amount of runs at 3.

He looked far better down the order than 3. Even as opener he's had better innings. No.3 is just his worst position. Much prefer him at 4 or 5.

 

[Nasty Naz]

A batting unit full of bums. UAE horrific fielding literally trying to gift Pakistan the match but this is one garbage batting unit and there needs to be a real self reflection for this entire lot.

 

[sweep_shot]

Bad fielding again. Gave away a boundary.

UAE fielding is cracking me up.

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

UAE is such unlikeable team. Mediocre fielders.

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

And bring in who?

Saqlain Mushtaq?

 

[Nikhil_cric]

The level of fielding is such that if this were a Test side I would have suspected these guys of match fixing. Unbelievably bad in the field.
