Pakistan (173) suffer back to back defeats as New Zealand (194/8) win 2nd T20I by 21 runs

[Sherazkhalid]

This kid is not cut out for international cricket, let him play leagues all over the world

 

[kingusama92]

Wow he really will never improve his average of two.

 

[castortroy]

Pak cricket continues its decline.

 

[Nasty Naz]

Honestly thought that was gone...

Looking almost exactly like last game now. It's Babar or bust.

 

[Shaka81]

It's difficult to win a game when you only have 4 capable batters

 

[jattafridi]

Ifti mania gone

Azam flop also gone

Only hope king Babar

 

[Ahmed216]

Azam khan is expected to replace Rizwan. Wow just Wow

 

[Mrhandsome]

Match gone now

 

[Aviator]

Hahaha.... azam khan gone....

 

[kingusama92]

Babar or nothing now.

 

[Rana]

This commentator is too risky

He was about to say Slam bam Thankyou…

 

[Shafi]

Another useless player is out!!!!

 

[Wasim Ghulam]

once again momentum killed by Babar Azam and Fakhar got out. Rest are pedestrian

 

[Energy]

cannot represent the great nation of Pakistan on a cricket field.

 

[Rana]

Babar or nothing now.

He will happily just settle for a 50 I recon

 

[Sherazkhalid]

Same situation as last game, the minute babar goes, it's game over

 

[Ali T]

???? What happened ???

What happened is that he was looking for a bit shot and got out

 

[msb314]

Why should Babar take responsibility for these bunch of poor players
??

 

[Ahmed216]

In form in what position?

No. 5 obviously. Can't do worse than chacha

 

[Blackbradman]

No idea how Kiwis given too many chances to Trundler Tickner when they have 140+ bowler sears in the ranks.

 

[Human786]

86 from 42 - over

 

[jattafridi]

Pakistan cricket team need rest

So they can play psl

 

[Aviator]

Get rid of passengers like ifti, azam and usama mir... Then you can think of competing with better teams..

 

[IAJ]

Rubbish batting, they never learn, keeps falling to fielding traps.

 

[BouncerGuy]

This team needs few changes for next match now.

 

[castortroy]

So many technical faults so many of these Pak batters.

Rizwan for example, has become so obsessed with playing on the legside that he no offside game left anymore.

He reaches or lunges at everything on the offside

 

[hitthestump]

Babar or nothing now.

As usual.

This team can't win anything without either Babar or Rizwan firing.

 

[Mohraheem]

What happened is that he was looking for a bit shot and got out

Clueless shot!

 

[Devadwal]

First seven over 80/2
Next five over 29/3

 

[Human786]

6

 

[AAli98]

5-0 loading nz along with aus wont invite Pak for the nxt 2 decades.

Tri series with Uganda & hong kong for Azam to buffet on

 

[Rana]

cannot represent the great nation of Pakistan on a cricket field.

Nor can a mental midget

No. 5 obviously. Can't do worse than chacha

oh yeah he was on fire at number 5 in Pakistan domestics

 

[Mrhandsome]

Our tail starts with Iftikar

 

[Human786]

Babarr needs to be told you cannot draw the game

 

[Devadwal]

Much needed six by Jamal .can be smashed 3-4 six more ?

 

[Mohraheem]

What happened is that he was looking for a bit shot and got out

lol you saw the big shot hit by Jamal that’s a big shot

 

[Aviator]

On what basis iftikhar is in team?
Is he somehow connected to someone higher in PCB like shan masood?
Is there some nepotism quota in PCB of playing atleast 4 nepo in team?

 

[BouncerGuy]

babar cannot do anything if the people at the other end are falling like bunch of cards.

 

[castortroy]

Also, afridi should never have been picked as captain.

 

[Human786]

75 in 36 ...

 

[Nasty Naz]

Babar you need to hit boundaries and sixes instead of looking for singles. Last Sodhi over and goal should be to demolish him.

 

[Croma]

I missed the innings.

Is Babar batting well?

 

[BouncerGuy]

Good shot by bobby.

 

[Human786]

OUTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

 

[boomboomcheema]

Azam and Itfi Chacha killed whatever little hopes that existed.

 

[Croma]

King Babar

 

[Ahmed216]

Nor can a mental midget

oh yeah he was on fire at number 5 in Pakistan domestics

U want Asif Ali to open. U want Fakhar sharjeel Saim to open too. Now it's sahibzada.
Its anyone but Rizwan for you.
Don't worry if Rizwan does not perform in future he'll be removed and other worthy openers will get their chance

 

[castortroy]

Maybe pak need to stop touring New Zealand alsl

 

[shah9425]

Pakistan’s GOAT wicket keeper batsman

Yeah he is

 

[BouncerGuy]

Jamal gone..all hopes as well

 

[Blackbradman]

Jamal departs

 

[Human786]

Good shot by bobby.

Bobby ?

 

[Croma]

Jamaaaaal goes...

 

[Rana]

Why come out of your crease?

 

[Devadwal]

Jamal gone

 

[BouncerGuy]

Bobby ?

yep our very own babar azam.

 

[BouncerGuy]

This game is done and dusted.

 

[shah9425]

Why? Whose decision is it to have Fakhar not opening?

Is it Rizwan’s decision?

Yeah it is his decision

 

[Rana]

Yeah he is

What are his accolades? Besides tarnishing the credibility of the ICC rankings

 

[Sherazkhalid]

Babar is like Misbah, you do you are damned, you don't you are as well. Can't blame Babar for everyone falling short. Usama Mir, Azam, Ifti are all passengers. Only hope is for Naseem to come back and bring back something in bowling else we are WI in the making

 

[Human786]

2 of Southee & 1 of Milne left - Babar needs to think of Kohli & hittttt ....

 

[Mrhandsome]

Shaheen thinks he is Sohail Tanvir with the bat

 

[Croma]

King kar lega

Jamal gone..all hopes as well

 

[Asif321]

Fakhar as opener is only solution

 

[OldWarHorse]

This is over. Tame submission

 

[Rana]

Yeah it is his decision

I wouldn’t doubt a decision from a selfish player that suits him and not his country

 

[castortroy]

Pak should have lost this by a bigger margin

Babar and Fakhar both dropped early

 

[boomboomcheema]

Is Babar playing for a draw now ? Just keep the strike and start hitting, no use if he accumulated another 20-30 useless runs.

 

[Mrhandsome]

Please drop Iftikar forever please

 

[gkb101277867]

Babar should be ashamed of himself. It’s the last Sodhi over so babar should have tried to demolish him. Instead he’s happy to take singles and put pressure on everyone else which causes them to get out. Babar is killing the team. He needs to take responsibility and take the risks

 

[CerebralPatriot]

Shaheen promoting himself to 8

Wow just wow

 

[Energy]

Iftikhar and Azam are to be blamed for today without doubt. Absolutely abysmal duo to have physically and what they bring to the table in a match. Not contributing in any of the three facets.

 

[shah9425]

What are his accolades? Besides tarnishing the credibility of the ICC rankings

What's are you keeper record

 

[BouncerGuy]

What a start by babar, superb 6

 

[ask_analyse_act]

Azam and Itfi Chacha killed whatever little hopes that existed.

Ifthi chacha is in the side as a middle order batter and till now haven’t seen him win matches scoring a 50 or 100 across formats.

Fatso needs to go , give him ten more matches he will still be the same can’t make 20 runs in intl cricket to save his nepotistic face

 

[Nasty Naz]

Just super disappointing stuff from Pakistan. It's been garbage since Fakhar got out and Babar hasn't got the strike enough.

 

[Croma]

36 ball 50 from Babar

 

[Asif321]

Whole batting line up flopped , Babar and fakhar got easy catches dropped

 

[Sherazkhalid]

Pak should have lost this by a bigger margin

Babar and Fakhar both dropped early

This is part of the game, we could have won first game if we had held our catches as well.

 

[Shaka81]

He will happily just settle for a 50 I recon

I suppose you would prefer more players like Azam and Ifti to bring those attacking single figure scores. If anyone had stuck around with Babar or even better we had chosen actual batsmen in the lower middle order than Babar would easily win this game. Now he's being asked to win it on his own again.
