Pakistan (199/3) cruise past Namibia (97) by 102 runs to secure Super 8s spot in T20 World Cup 2026

[Major]

Extremely selfish by Farhan to prioritize his hundred over the teams need. This approach has cost us 10 runs atleast.

Who cares. The guy qas getting dropped this morning.

These milestones are important, because they keep you in the team.

Look at abrar. Bowled well, no milestone, so was dropped.

 

[Rana]

@BouncerGuy was happy to rest Farhan today

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Good batting performance all things considered

 

[Wasim Ghulam]

Babar should have been dropped instead of Abrar

 

[Major]

@BouncerGuy was happy to rest Farhan today

Really?

 

[mango_bite77]

Babar should retire now.

 

[zahid01]

India are lucky that this version of Pakistan didn't turn up.

Take it easy we ate playing a minnow associate team

 

[Chuggy]

Babar should have been dropped instead of Abrar

Need him as a fielder

 

[BouncerGuy]

@BouncerGuy was happy to rest Farhan today

Where was I happy... you posted the news... Not me Bro... I just mentioned why they want to drop him.

 

[Wasim Ghulam]

Need him as a fielder

Abrar could have been real handy against namibia. gurnateed nam batsmen would nt pick him up.

 

[globetrotter]

Within 2 days Pakistan team completely changed..... what a miracle?

 

[Cryin Out Loud]

India are lucky that this version of Pakistan didn't turn up.

Indeed. I think Pakistan are probably unlucky that the Indian version of India keeps turning up.

 

[NeVerMind]

Babar should retire now.

He's playing as a specialist fielder

 

[BunnyRabbit]

Without Farhan, our batting is not much different than 2024 wt20

 

[Sachin fan]

@RizwanT20Champ Farhan scored a 100 while your Babar was demoted and didn't even get to bat. Kya aise khelega world t20 2028?

 

[Josh]

So 200 is target

Not happening! Namibia will need 5 Shadabs with 4 overs to each to chase this.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Nothing new happened here, Farhan is still our best batsman and the rest are just making up the numbers.

Babar playing or not playing has no net effect on our batting line-up.

 

[pakistani pride]

This just shows Babar is not required. He should be dropped now going forward in the super 8s.

 

[Sachin fan]

India are lucky that this version of Pakistan didn't turn up.

Its Namibia dude, they even got thrashed by Netherlands. USA scored the same runs against them (199). Itna mat ucchal.

 

[mesmerizer85]

Congratulations to Sahebzada bhai.

Namibia mere saamne khadi ho,
Aur mae Century na maaru?
Esssa kessseeee ho sakti hae?

Indian batsmen had a chance too against same team

 

[GudduBadmash]

Rizwan has 2 70s, which no other player has got.

Credit due where deserved

Match winning 79 against India too

 

[GoUgandaCranes]

This just shows Babar is not required. He should be dropped now going forward in the super 8s.

It was a good decision to demote him but it also gives him license to bat slowly as he's the designated anchor. So next time, when we are 14/2, he will bat slowly because "that is his role".

 

[Wasim Ghulam]

Its Namibia dude, they even got thrashed by Netherlands. USA scored the same runs against them (199). Itna mat ucchal.

you did nt get the sarcasm?

 

[GudduBadmash]

Extremely selfish by Farhan to prioritize his hundred over the teams need. This approach has cost us 10 runs atleast.

Namibia are not even getting close to this total because Shaheen isnt playing today

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

I actually want to file a complaint with the broadcasters. How do I even do this?

I am sick of seeing the crowd in every key moment.

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

Congrats to Farhan on an excellent hundred.

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

200 to Win for Namibia
PK should win this easily by 125 odd runs

 

[IAJ]

Extremely selfish by Farhan to prioritize his hundred over the teams need. This approach has cost us 10 runs atleast.

What? Yaar tumhara focus hamesha ghalt jaggah pay houta hai. They guyjust scored a 100 with SR of almost 175 and you call this selfish. If Saim Ayub or the captain had stayed at the crease we might have got to 220.

And the captain was irritated because Nafay got out early, that is also stupid. Nafay was sent in to play his shots, didn't pay off this time, hope they don't drop him next match now.

 

[Asif321]

Well thankfully Pakistan manage to make it to super 8s .

 

[Bhaijaan]

Indian batsmen had a chance too against same team

SBZ is special player dear

 

[RizwanT20Champ]

@RizwanT20Champ Farhan scored a 100 while your Babar was demoted and didn't even get to bat. Kya aise khelega world t20 2028?

A ton against Namibia let's do bhangra. Farhan's minnow bashing abilities were never in doubt.

 

[RidiculousMan]

Nice to see Faheem get the ball. Hope he performs today with the ball.

 

[Asif321]

Faheem bowling now hahah .

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

This Pakistan team are specialist minnow bashers. This is their level unfortunately.

 

[BouncerGuy]

Lord Faheem attacker

 

[shah9425]

Faheem for first time

 

[Asif321]

A ton against Namibia let's do bhangra. Farhan's minnow bashing abilities were never in doubt.

Sadly Rizwan t20 champ couldn’t do it against minnows too

 

[BouncerGuy]

and 6

 

[Asif321]

Faheem should be on bench why is he opening .

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

Why is this midget trundler opening the bowling?

 

[RizwanT20Champ]

Where my bro @RizwanT20Champ ?

Are you that shameless that you are celebrating a 100 against Namibia? Brooooo this tulla's minnow bashing ability was never in doubt. We know what he does against SENAI.

 

[Duckworth Lewis]

Fakhar, Nafay and Abrar should play. Babar should be kicked out. What kind of blockheads are sitting in the management? How come they keep making mistakes everytime? When you are on of the least talented cricketing countries among the top teams, atleast make use of the best resources available idiots.

 

[RidiculousMan]

Nawaz drops a dolly!

 

[Asif321]

Hahah andha Nawaz . What a loser

 

[Omer2002]

two drop catches wow in one over...

 

[Usman Chadda]

Nawaz isn't feeling it, doesn't seem to be switched on for this World Cup

 

[RizwanT20Champ]

Sadly Rizwan t20 champ couldn’t do it against minnows too

Rizwan has 2 match winning knocks vs India and a WC semi winning knock vs NZ. This tullar Farhan hack got a 0 against India and 100 vs Namibia. Let's start calling him Sahibia

 

[shah9425]

Nawaz the clown

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

Babar, Faheem, Shadab, Usman Khan drop.

Saim lower order.

Find more players.

 

[NeVerMind]

He was cramping up as well...cut him some slack..it wasn't like Babar going for a run a ball 50....

 

[m.shah]

Nawaz just can't handle big occasions

 

[Sachin fan]

A ton against Namibia let's do bhangra. Farhan's minnow bashing abilities were never in doubt.

But demotion against minnows? What a downfall for Babar. Bigger insult than what Steve Smith did.

 

[Asif321]

Mirza is good need to play all games

 

[Duckworth Lewis]

Abrar out but Shadab in due to his batting ability against associates. Pakistan deserves all the humiliation it gets for not thrashing the idiots in selection and management in public.

 

[Asif321]

Rizwan has 2 match winning knocks vs India and a WC semi winning knock vs NZ. This tullar Farhan hack got a 0 against India and 100 vs Namibia. Let's start calling him Sahibia

Can’t see his 100 anywhere .

 

[RizwanT20Champ]

But demotion against minnows? What a downfall for Babar. Bigger insult than what Steve Smith did.

Dropping Babar is fine if he doesn't improve. Team comes first. You worry about your joker Sharma who has 2 ducks in WCs.

 

[AAli98]

This keepers atrocious cannot collect cleanly.. his got that 1 mistake like Kamran Akmal in him that will cost pak the icc tournament.

 

[NeVerMind]

Mirza has already outperformed Shaheen with his first over...

 

[RizwanT20Champ]

Can’t see his 100 anywhere .

Celebrate Sahibia, that is your level.

 

[Rajdeep]

Salman Mirza reminds me of Rumman Raees...same bowling action and pace.

 

[GudduBadmash]

Sadly Rizwan t20 champ couldn’t do it against minnows too

Rizwan world cup record is actually pretty decent if you compare it to the other Trash

67 vs Aus (SF)
79 vs India
53 vs Canada
79 vs Namibia
57 vs New Zealand (SF)

The only other Pakistani player to ever get a MOTM in a Semi Final or Final in a T20 World Cup was Shahid Afridi

 

[RizwanT20Champ]

Mirza has already outperformed Shaheen with his first over...

Yes incredible performance removing Rohit, Rahul, Kholi....oh wait sorry.

 

[Asif321]

Celebrate Sahibia, that is your level.

Ya toh win ha ya toh learn hai . You got a good learn today

 

[Duckworth Lewis]

Dropping Babar is fine if he doesn't improve. Team comes first. You worry about your joker Sharma who has 2 ducks in WCs.

Man, do still you want Rizwan and Babar?

 

[TheSultan]

Are you that shameless that you are celebrating a 100 against Namibia? Brooooo this tulla's minnow bashing ability was never in doubt. We know what he does against SENAI.

I’m just asking where you are! how are you today bro?

 

[Usman Chadda]

It's not an easy wicket to get yourself in immediately

 

[RizwanT20Champ]

Ya toh win ha ya toh learn hai . You got a good learn today

Don't worry, big teams are coming up, Farhan and you will get more learns and big learns. You might be able to do some bhangra with some learn if he hits chakkas

 

[Duckworth Lewis]

Yes incredible performance removing Rohit, Rahul, Kholi....oh wait sorry.

Dude just woke up from his sleep since 2021

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

Salman Mirza reminds me of Rumman Raees...same bowling action and pace.

Yes a cunning short trundler type

 

[hamzie]

Wasim: outside edge nice controlled shot

So which is it

 

[RehanG]

farhan can be rested.. Not dropped TBH,. CHill

And he made a 100

 

[Asif321]

Rizwan world cup record is actually pretty decent if you compare it to the other Trash

Not talking about records . Just telling they couldn’t score ton in 3 WCs while he did it in his first . And compare the records after Farhan plays 3 WCs . Rightnow it’s baseless

Forgot about Umar Gul but they are the only 3 players ever from Pakistan in a T20 world cup

 

[Rajdeep]

Yes a cunning short trundler type

In T20 cricket, line and length trundlers are good. 'Pace is pace yaar' bowlers often goes for runs

 

[Major]

two drop catches wow in one over...

One. The other was a bye

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

Most toothless pace bowling I have ever seen.

 

[BouncerGuy]

And he made a 100

Yepp... Ask rana where did he got this news from that he was going to get dropped?

 

[NeVerMind]

Yes incredible performance removing Rohit, Rahul, Kholi....oh wait sorry.

Do you have a time machine and have gone back 5 years? Would love to borrow it...

 

[hamzie]

Why is Tariq yawning

Farhan is a one man batting machine, no hate at all, guy deserves to be here. Unlike all the other fools, this guy performed in absolutely every single format in domestic cricket for many years with very little recognition. This is one of the most deserving callups in the history of this National Team
