Pakistan (275/8) defeat West Indies (155) by 120 runs in the 2nd ODI & take an unassailable 2-0 lead

[Nasty Naz]

Pretty stupid a delivery like that is given as a wide with the batter shuffling across.

 

[Marooned]

I think they see wasim as someone who can be a solid number 9

But it's blocking the path of a guy who imo will be a lock in white ball teams if he is given a chance. We don't think about batting when talking about Premier bowlers. He is that imo. Just needs a fair chance.

I think eventually his role will be more like Faheem. As a 4th seamer option in right conditions but not playing in asian/spin conditions.

But he is still so young that who knows. It does seem like Pakistan believe in his upside and are going to back him.

 

[Rana]

Spinners pulling us back into this big time

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Give Khushdil a bowl!

Pakistan are more at a disadvantage with Pakistani umpires than they are with neutral umpires. Pakistani umpires for the past 5-6 years have always been more ready to give decisions against Pakistan than they are against other teams. Almost all of the 50-50 decisions goes against Pakistan team when its a Pakistani umpire. Led by Aleem Dar.

 

[imshally81]

We need 6th bowler here..

 

[shariqnoor]

Spinners need to get wickets. They will not be able to restrict WI with this total. Especially with Pooran being a left hander where all the spin is coming into him.

 

[imshally81]

Dropped

 

[ha5is12]

Big drop

 

[Rana]

Why does Imam have a plaster on every finger?

 

[Rana]

That was the game IMO

 

[Ahmed216]

Customary drop from Imam jonty. I always wonder why posters rate him as a fielder. Take a look at that effort

 

[Saj]

Lazy fielding once again from Imam.

One of the worst fielders around at the moment.

 

[imshally81]

Out

 

[Ahmed216]

In comes a big shot after a couple of dots

 

[nextover666666]

Wicekt Nawaz Strikes

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Windies wont even make 220

 

[Marooned]

Customary drop from Imam jonty. I always wonder why posters rate him as a fielder. Take a look at that effort

Better than what pakistan had in past but isn't a great fielder otherwise. Dives well but hardly ever takes anything cleanly.

 

[ha5is12]

Plenty to rush and say we never had enough runs when it was clearly a much more difficult pitch

 

[Nasty Naz]

2 slips in. Love the aggression.

 

[Ahmed216]

Hardly ever takes anything cleanly and he's standing at point

 

[Amjid Javed]

Must take after his uncle.

 

[nextover666666]

I know it might not be a popular opinion but i wanna see Babar bowl some overs in ODI cricket just to spice things up

 

[shariqnoor]

Powell struggles big times against a spinning ball. Will Babar be smart enough to know that? Get Shadab on.

 

[shariqnoor]

Must take after his uncle.

Inzi was never a bad fielder. He was one of Pakistan's best catchers and had one of the deadliest arms in world cricket from the boundary rope. The only problem was Inzi wasn't fast enough largely due to his weight.

 

[Ahmed216]

Must take after his uncle.

Did not see much of inzy but i think he was a pretty safe slip fielder and threw well from the deep

 

[Nasty Naz]

Finally some smarter and tighter line bowling by Rauf. I really don't think he should open with the new ball with his lack of control.

 

[NeVerMind]

Nawaz gets Powell though he reviews...looked out to me

 

[imshally81]

Powell gone

 

[Firebat]

0 runs scored in the 8 balls since the wicket. This is great pressure from Pakistan.

 

[nextover666666]

Review time

 

[NeVerMind]

Inside edge saves Powell

 

[imshally81]

Not out

 

[nextover666666]

Not out

 

[Nasty Naz]

Nawaz you beauty. Brilliant bowling by him today.

 

[imshally81]

First run after 12 balls

 

[Ahmed216]

Accuracy is the always the key on slow sticky surfaces. Nawaz has delivered but rest have been over trying

 

[Nasty Naz]

WI getting some lucky edges.

 

[nextover666666]

Nawaz looking good today, but i wonder how Nawaz would do against a team who plays spin well

 

[imshally81]

Last 5 overs : 14/1

 

[imshally81]

Shadab is leaking runs here

 

[Omer2002]

Shadab getting smacked on a surface offering spin

 

[Omer2002]

I think its time to try khusdil once nawaz is bowled out

 

[NeVerMind]

Nawaz finally gets Powell

 

[imshally81]

Powell gone this time

 

[ha5is12]

This is a MOTM bowling performance by Nawaz

 

[Ahmed216]

Nawaz looking good today, but i wonder how Nawaz would do against a team who plays spin well

Living in present is key to happiness

 

[Nasty Naz]

Nawaz well on his way to a MOTM award.

 

[imshally81]

Bowled

 

[NeVerMind]

Nawaz gets Pooran too...all over for the West Indies

 

[Nasty Naz]

Oh my goodness, Nawaz. Just ripping the heart right out of WI. Tremendous bowling.

 

[Omer2002]

Nawaqz u leg...surely if he wasnt injured hr wud have been in our test squad too mashallah improved bowling and even though played a lazy shot today he has improved his batting

 

[nextover666666]

Living in present is key to happiness

Yes but also preparing for the future is future happiness as well.
Its not a bad question its a genuine question

 

[Syed1]

Wow wow wow Najjayy


Not all Nawazs are destructive for Pakistan


To think we used to play over weight Imad in Nawaz's place

 

[Rana]

Nawaz can get 6-7 here

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

Where are people watching the game?

Sky sports no longer showing it

 

[NeVerMind]

Sahdab gets another but reviewed

[nextover666666]

this umpire seems to always raise his finger lol

 

[nextover666666]

Wicket for Shadab

 

[NeVerMind]

I'm watching it right now on Sky Sports Mix

Channel 416 and it's free...don't need any Sky Sports package for this

 

[Ahmed216]

Yes but also preparing for the future is future happiness as well.

Kidding bro.

 

[Nasty Naz]

Shadab gets in on the fun. The spinners have won the game for us.

 

[topspin]

Multan is so hot. Why not play in somewhere like Jalalabad? It's much cooler there and not far from Pakistan.

 

[NeVerMind]

Unplayable deliveries being bowled now

 

[Nasty Naz]

Whoa, that turn.

 

[nextover666666]

Kidding bro.

Same Bro

 

[Saj]

Lovely bowling from Nawaz but West Indies batting as if they've never faced spin bowling before.

 

[Ahmed216]

Nawaz has bowled the perfect pace for this pitch. It took Shadab few overs to figure that out

 

[Fenrir]

Multan is so hot. Why not play in somewhere like Jalalabad? It's much cooler there and not far from Pakistan.

Nice joke.No team is going to play in Afghanistan.Abbotabad in Pakistan is ideal but I am not sure if the cricket stadium can host international matches.The hotels may not be of international standards.PCB should think about building a stadium in the north where weather is much cooler

 

[Marooned]

Multan is so hot. Why not play in somewhere like Jalalabad? It's much cooler there and not far from Pakistan.

Are you suggesting Afghanistan as a venue?
They themselves don't play there.

 

[shariqnoor]

Babar: "Jaan kar single karayi..bara h***** hay"

saying this to Nawaz.

 

[HappyWarsFan]

Multan is so hot. Why not play in somewhere like Jalalabad? It's much cooler there and not far from Pakistan.

Lmao I know who you're directing this at ) nice one

 

[DRsohail]

Shadab is seriously overrated in ODIs. He still has no 5fer.

 

[Ahmed216]

Time to introduce khushdil

 

[shariqnoor]

Shadab is seriously overrated in ODIs. He still has no 5fer.

Shane Warne only had 1 5fer in ODIs. Its not easy. Although I agree that Shadab is overrated.

 

[DRsohail]

Shane Warne only had 1 5fer in ODIs. Its not easy. Although I agree that Shadab is overrated.

Just telling, his average is above 32. I don't know but I see him as container most of the time rather than wicket taker.

 

[shariqnoor]

They are unnecessarily relaxed out there. No urgency to take these last 3 wickets.
