Pakistan (198/5) thrash Australia (108) by 90 runs in second T20I to seal 2-0 series win

[Kianig89]

Shadab parchi prefred over Nawaz

 

[SherWaqar]

Finally Usman connects one. Better make use of this opportunity now.

A corrupt selection. This hack has no right to be playing for Pakistan.

 

[G0rmintAunty]

Nice shot Usman. need a few more

 

[sweep_shot]

Usman is torture to watch

Usman has a T20 strike-rate of 143 but his international T20 strike-rate is 117.

He has struggled in international cricket so far.

 

[Rana]

This is what Hesson wants from his keeper

 

[RidiculousMan]

That's the over boys!

 

[G0rmintAunty]

Shaart Shady

 

[SherWaqar]

Team balance is a major issue. We have four openers in the squad.

 

[Rana]

Poor decision to give ball to Short

 

[Human786]

Short bowling the 16th .... 200+ on

 

[RidiculousMan]

I can hear the generator running in the background.

 

[Human786]

Where do you think they will end with?

over 200

 

[CricVet]

16 off the over

 

[RidiculousMan]

Zampa has only 1 over left. Pakistan doesn't necessarily have to target him. Play him normally and you can still get to 200.

 

[CricVet]

They should avg at least 12 from here (hypothetically)

 

[G0rmintAunty]

I can hear the generator running in the background.

I thought he wasnt in the squad.

 

[Rana]

So, Usman Khan is our second anchor @Raja Ishtiaq

Bro the second anchor has to be from Saya

 

[RehanG]

please get Usman out.

 

[Rana]

please get Usman out.

What about Babar?

 

[G0rmintAunty]

please get Usman out.

`He is doing well now. better to wish he goes on

 

[G0rmintAunty]

Shady really got a hold of that one.

 

[emranabbas]

It’s a bit embarrassing for a world-class player like Babar Azam when nobody like Usman Khan ends up outperforming him.

 

[Rana]

dramey karwa lo iss shokhey se!

 

[Rana]

Zampa is going to be flat all 6 balls

Use your brain boys

 

[Rana]

20 off 20

43 off 31

Excellent acceleration on a turning deck

 

[RidiculousMan]

It’s a bit embarrassing for a world-class player like Babar Azam when nobody like Usman Khan ends up outperforming him.

Ego is taking Babar down

 

[imshally81]

Four by Shaddy

 

[PakPremi]

Pakistan got some purchase from Zampa last over.

 

[RidiculousMan]

Free runs Abbott is here

 

[G0rmintAunty]

Could this be the innings that gets Usman going on the international stage

 

[CricVet]

Good job Usman!

 

[PakPremi]

Usman probably playing his best inning so far for Pakistan even with slowish start

 

[CricVet]

Stupid Shadab

 

[Rana]

Shadab ....! Usman is running to the danger end! Why you cancelling the single???

 

[Rana]

Agha and Hesson should retire Shadab just for that!

 

[Rana]

man this guy Shadab boils my blood with his antics!

 

[CricVet]

Shadab being a total fool and have no sense of running now

 

[RidiculousMan]

These two need to hit every ball. You have Nawaz and Faheem on bench man

 

[imshally81]

We have 3,4 passengers in the WC squad ...

 

[Rana]

Usman deny the single on the last ball please!

 

[Ball Blazer]

over 200

no way. It'll be under 200 I guess

 

[YousafTheBeast]

We have 3,4 passengers in the WC squad ...

Name them?

 

[G0rmintAunty]

16 needed in the last over to break the 200 barrier against Aus.

 

[imshally81]

Played another wide ball by shaddy

 

[CricVet]

Shadab thinks that since he is more experienced, he is entitled to hit out. The irony is that Usman sounds better hitting the ball

 

[imshally81]

Name them?

We all know

 

[RidiculousMan]

Gone after his fifty!

 

[YousafTheBeast]

We all know

You can’t name them because one of them is Babar?

 

[imshally81]

50 for Usman khan at right time

 

[G0rmintAunty]

Usman looks dead after playing 35 balls, needs to improve his fitness.

 

[imshally81]

You can’t name them because one of them is Babar?

See what did i say...

 

[RidiculousMan]

Nawaz! Match winner!

 

[Rana]

Shuts up quite a lot of people here

Good 50

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

We need a 50 from you today Usman. No room for excuses

Usman reaches the target that I set for him

Dekha @Rana it's good to demand from these players.

It's 2026 and there will be no room for passengers in the Pakistan team!

 

[RehanG]

Name them?

Babar, Usman (today was a fluke) Shaheen, Naseem to name a few.

 

[G0rmintAunty]

This is why Nawaz should have been purmoted up the order. He is in the form of his life.

 

[imshally81]

What a start by Nawaz...4 runs

 

[NeVerMind]

Nawas 2.0 is something else

 

[imshally81]

Babar, Usman (today was a fluke) Shaheen, Naseem to name a few.

Shadab and Faheem too

 

[G0rmintAunty]

Need a boundary off the last to get to that elusive 200.

 

[Rana]

Aussies will remember some more Pakistani names besides Babar, Rizwan and Shaheen lol

 

[CricVet]

Good work Usman and Salman. Two guys who were being questioned, and they gave answers while king is still busy sipping koolaid.

 

[imshally81]

Nawaz improve massively MA

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

So, Usman Khan is our second anchor @Raja Ishtiaq

He did well today to anchor the innings after Babar was out early but I still don't see anything from him that Rizwan cannot do.

 

[Rana]

Pakistan’s best score against Australia

 

[RidiculousMan]

Not a bad effort from middle order tonight. Time for the spinners to do their magic. It won't easy. Head and Marsh will come hard!

 

[Rana]

What’s Rizwan’s Stats outside opening

 

[RidiculousMan]

Salman played a paisa wasool innings tonight

 

[imshally81]

Shadab at number 6 is terrible .... Even Nawaz seems better

 

[sweep_shot]

I think Pakistan have runs on the board.

Unless Head plays one of his knocks, Australia should lose.

 

[Aqib_mustafa]

We are winning this match good luck australia chasing vs usman abrar nawaz saim and shadab brilliant batting by agha jee and usman how good he was today brilliant

 

[Aami]

Finally...an innings of note from Usman!

 

[RidiculousMan]

This is why Nawaz should have been purmoted up the order. He is in the form of his life.

If 15 overs have passed. He should be padded up to come next.

 

[Wasim Ghulam]

It’s a bit embarrassing for a world-class player like Babar Azam when nobody like Usman Khan ends up outperforming him.

Babar and World class ..there could nt be better Joke or Sarcasm

 

[Zeshan547]

if all those spinners can't even defend 200 vs gori team on Asian wicket , they should be ashamed of themselves.

 

[RidiculousMan]

Shadab saying his and Nawaz role with bat and ball is very important for the team.

So now we know that Shadab will be in the main XI that Pakistan will field in WT20

 

[RidiculousMan]

if all those spinners can't even defend 200 vs gori team on Asian wicket , they should be ashamed of themselves.

True. But Australia have quality batters tonight. Head is a freak. Won't be easy to defend

 

[Aqib_mustafa]

Not a bad effort from middle order tonight. Time for the spinners to do their magic. It won't easy. Head and Marsh will come hard!

Nah usman tariq abrar saim nawaz and shadab good luck australia just too much for Australia pakistan has world class spin attack

 

[Savak]

Usman and Shadab should have gotten the score to 220 atleast given the platform they had. Extremely poor talent, hitting technique against some basic routine disciplined defensive death bowling. Can't consistently win T20 games against top opponents with these backward issues in the game.
