Pakistan (181/4) defeat Ireland (178/7) by 6 wickets in the T20I decider to win the series 2-1

[PakPremi]

Babar's robotic captaincy will not allow him to try a spinner like Siam, Imad or Imad especially when he can see Hasan is causing Pakistan to lose the grip on the match.

 

[Human786]

Hasan ali is like one of those besharam bowlers
After getting hit he feels no shame

he flares his nostrils & spits profusely ....

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Hasan at his best can bowl a decent length. But to think that 8 years ago, some folks here were comparing him to Malcolm Marshall.

 

[Shafi]

Parch Hasan gets hammered. Shame on Ghante ka King Zimbabar

Problem is these pacers start too old so their shelf life is very short. 4 years and they're finished.

Hasan is down as a 29 year old, really?

He is 34, lost his zip and is finished. No idea why he's still playing international cricket.

We need to find them young.

 

[Sycamore]

I'd take BD's Shoriful over most of our seamers.

Embarrassing stuff from Hasan Ali. Why's he got another over ?

If bobsy didn't give him another then his figures would be 16 from one over. If he picks up a wicket he will lock in his place for next few games.

 

[AAli98]

Fatty missed a regular stumping. Are they taking this liability to the World Cup ?

 

[mominsaigol]

Hasan Ali - 29 from2 overs

Remember he enjoys this, even if he gets hot for 100 of 4.

He's loving every bit of this pain

 

[Human786]

69/1 in 8

Pointless finding them young the seniors will hog their place

Zindabad buddy.

 

[Shafi]

I think Babar wants Hasan to play in the World Cup. This Hasan has no self pride as he is happy to give even 100 runs in 4 overs.

 

[AAli98]

Zindabad buddy.

Seriously if they take this lump of lard to a World Cup hope Uganda Oman & co pump Pak

 

[shortbread]

Fat piece of **** missed a regular stumping. Are they taking this liability to the World Cup ?

Saim Ayub should've bowled it slower giving Azam time to collect and stump the batsman. Azam has amazing reflexes, as long as the long as the bowler can expertly deliver the ball into his gloves. He's also the son of a legendary keeper, stop questioning his capability.

 

[Ijaz Ahmed07]

I feel sorry for Saim , nothing is going his way in international cricket , that missed stumping would have been his first international wicket

 

[Rana]

Ireland pumping Pakistan here

 

[Human786]

Abbas ki pitai shuru 11 in 3

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

Seriously if they take this lump of lard to a World Cup hope Uganda Oman & co pump Pak

Does Moin Khan have dirt on Saya Corp? Only reason I can think of big boy being in the team.

 

[emranabbas]

Seriously if they take this lump of lard to a World Cup hope Uganda Oman & co pump Pak

Pakistan won't pass group stages so they won't have a chance to play Uganda and Oman

 

[Rana]

Looks like Shaheen, Amir and Abbas will bowl 4 each

Babar looking to find 8 overs from Hassan, Saim and Imad

 

[followed]

Hasan Ali has been finished a long time ago.
He was at his best during that 2017 season.
He had good pace with very good slower ball.

Now he is just a trundler without skills.Babar struck again and selected him. Babar is ruining Pakistan cricket.

 

[Asad T]

Azam has always had trouble behind the stumps and should be dropped on his keeping alone

 

[mominsaigol]

I'm loving every bit of this. Go Ireland go.

Mir Hamza would have been a better pick than Hasan.

Don't worry, they'll take hasan Ali as well

 

[emranabbas]

Missed catch and missed stump

We have returned the favour from the last game

Now the real game begins

 

[shortbread]

Azam has always had trouble behind the stumps and should be dropped on his keeping alone

He's currently the world's widest keeper, that's a positive!

 

[followed]

I would have definitely picked Wasim jnr ahead of these trundlers Abbas and hasan.
Q

 

[Rana]

Someone’s having a meltdown over Amir’s selection on espncricinfo commentary @Rana

After this game I will dig up posts where someone was claiming Hassan is a better option than Amir

 

[shariqnoor]

A 50 run defeat will be a proper sendoff.

 

[Markhor]

Is Imad not playing today...

 

[Rana]

Beautiful batting by Tucker

Boy I was wrong about him

 

[emranabbas]

Ireland are a proper cricketing team some of these shots pakistanis can only dream to play

 

[shortbread]

Is Imad not playing today...

Im sure he's fielding.

 

[Rana]

Is Imad not playing today...

Don’t think so. Babar has his friends to do the job

 

[Human786]

95/1 in 10 - how easy would be a 200 run chase ?

 

[Rana]

Ireland need 240 here I recon

 

[PakPremi]

Well played Tucker with some poor bowling by Hasan, Saim and some balls by Abbas.
Abbas unlucky as well.

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

I think I'm going to have a meltdown if I see another trundler wearing green.

They should make a new rule, no bowler who is slower than 140k should be allowed to represent Pakistan.

 

[emranabbas]

Both batsmen striking 150+

Those who are in favour of Babar and rizwan opening can they both play such innings?

And there is no accumulator

 

[Markhor]

Pakistan were in control until Babar brought his friend into the attack. Still no Imad who can contain the flow of runs. Frustrating to watch these bowling changes.

 

[mominsaigol]

Seriously who said saim was a goat at bowling? I told you, if guptil can handle the kid anyone in international can.

 

[shortbread]

Ireland need 240 here I recon

Atleast, last match their bowlers were hammered at nearly 12 an over.

 

[AAli98]

Does Moin Khan think this is his forefathers team he can put that thing behind the stumps!!

 

[shortbread]

Seriously who said saim was a goat at bowling? I told you, if guptil can handle the kid anyone in international can.

He should've got a wicket his first ball.

 

[Kianig89]

Ireland are well prepared for WC, sadly this cannot be said for Pakistan

 

[Energy]

Abbas deserves to be on the plane to the World T20. A proper T20I bowler and bowls excellent lengths and has variations.

 

[emranabbas]

Pakistan were in control until Babar brought his friend into the attack. Still no Imad who can contain the flow of runs. Frustrating to watch these bowling changes.

Imad won't be having the ball just incase he takes a wicket and become a permanent member of the team

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

Does Moin Khan think this is his forefathers team he can put that thing behind the stumps!!

He probably has dirt on saya corp

 

[Human786]

lady commie says 220 a decent score ! OUT

 

[Ahmed216]

Really like Abbas Afridi. He's got variations in pace lengths lines.
Gone for couple of boundaries off edge

 

[Energy]

Rizwan has taken a good catch. Shabaash boy.

 

[Ali Active]

Rizwan is better feilder than keeper tbh

 

[Rana]

Solid catch

 

[Human786]

terrific catch - Rizzu ne liya @Rana

 

[Ahmed216]

Superman Riz

 

[Rana]

Atleast, last match their bowlers were hammered at nearly 12 an over.

They won’t get there. But they need to swing hard and give themselves the best chance

 

[emranabbas]

Pakistan team celebrating like they won the worldcup

Definitely some cakes cut after the match

 

[fieldMarshal]

Azam khan is crap behind stumps specially against spinners.

 

[shortbread]

Rizwan is better feilder than keeper tbh

He's a much better keeper than Azam, would've easily completed that stumping.

Although I'm not sure what's worse, Azam the keeper or Azam the fielder?!

 

[Human786]

106/2 in 11 - 2 dangerous T's on crease

 

[Rana]

Abbas just can’t bowl an over less than 9 runs per over

 

[castortroy]

Pak weakest area is bowling now.

This bowling attack has been getting slightered for the last 2 years

They can't defend totals anymore and its arguably the most expensive attack in world cricket

 

[mominsaigol]

I hope babar gets banned from cricket after this game and take Misbah's bhoota and baby chacha with you

 

[fieldMarshal]

This team lacks balance.....u cant have 5 openers , 2 wicket keepers playing in a team

 

[Rana]

Babar doesn’t think Imad can bowl to Balbirnie but Saim can?

 

[emranabbas]

Abbas just can’t bowl an over less than 9 runs per over

Still not bad when you have hassan ali bowling at 14 an over

 

[followed]

It's really embarrassing to see hasan and this trundler Abbas bowling.

 

[emranabbas]

Maddy finally here

 

[Rana]

What was Shaheen doing?

 

[Caved12]

Game is for humans not for people like Rizwan who can literally fly. Is there anything this guy can’t do?

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Classic fielding

 

[Energy]

What a clown, Azam.

 

[Human786]

115/2 in 12 . Any team which has Ifti & Azam are a joke imo .

 

[Ahmed216]

Embarassing stuff from Azam

 

[Rana]

I don’t understand why Babar applies so much brain and his science on Imad’s bowling? He has blind trust on everyone else but him as a bowler

 

[mominsaigol]

Probs the most hilarious fielding and keeping I've ever seen.

 

[Asad T]

Why is Hasan Ali bowling a 2nd spell

 

[Rana]

Rizwan chawwal 3rd man
