Pakistan [305 all out] slide to a 62-run defeat to Australia [367/9] at the ICC World Cup 2023 in Bengaluru

[pakistanisgreat]

Need a 4 here

 

[Iamcoolwhiz]

First he would have to drop himself

As unreliable as Babar is, he makes the team on merit.

 

[Marooned]

Not really they were 130 for 0...although quite a few tuk tuks no doubt but you rather be in this situation rather than 100 for 4 after 13 overs...i am looking at tey score now i mean i know its an impossibility but 164 needed in 120 balls with 7 wickets is that right??

By experience. If you are run a ball by 20+ overs chasing a huge target, you are likely in trouble.

Slow batting costs you dearly in big chases.

 

[Technics 1210]

The ball didn’t even hit Shafique’s head

Why did Rizwan call for the physio???

Maybe Star sports is broadcasting another angle.

 

[pakistanisgreat]

What a shot for 444

 

[mominsaigol]

I'm still annoyed though, reckless shot and procession starts.

Well he is a rookie with only 7 List A match experiences amd they expect him to play a world cup lol.

Babar is more at fault, that ball was not a wicket taking ball, it was short and meant to be hit. Babar is experienced and Mr no 1, he should have done better.

 

[viking2559]

You just can't keep churning these kind of batsmen.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

Pakistan keep slowing it down when they have momentum

confidence is so important

 

[JattMaula]

 

[Fazzy321]

people wish fulfilled with 200 in 30 overs. But I dont think we are chasing this

 

[pakistanisgreat]

Its a t20 game from here. Which is very mich doable if we play sensibly

 

[vodafone_lover]

Babar out, haters in.

It has nothing to do with babar, it is your own big mouth when comparing these minnows with ATG players. Now when they are giving chance to those people, people will not leave a single chance to laugh like this

BTW unfortunately my stakes are on pakistan today don't know why !!

 

[jnaveen1980]

T20 on . Target 168 to get. Doable these days on this ground

 

[pillionrider]

Pakistan are well well over the required mark. Usually you take the score at the 30 over mark and double it to get the 50 over score.

Rizwan loves a fight. I don't like him personally, but you can't help but respect him. Similar to Mushfiqur for B'desh.

 

[7sins]

All we need is a partnership now rr is good

 

[pakistanisgreat]

Now rizwan wants to throw his wicket

 

[NeVerMind]

Exaclty 200 after 30 overs..there used to be assaying that you normally double our score after this stage but highly unlikely

 

[IAJ]

@Major Pakistan 200 after 30 overs. Proper T20 now.

 

[Kroll]

Its a t20 game from here. Which is very mich doable if we play sensibly

but with 3 wkts down

 

[Asif321]

Saud has chance to be hero

 

[Technics 1210]

It has nothing to do with babar, it is your own big mouth when comparing these minnows with ATG players. Now when they are giving chance to those people, people will not leave a single chance to laugh like this

I have never compared Babar with any batsman.

Babar is his own player, man, and King.

Please do keep up.

 

[mominsaigol]

people wish fulfilled with 200 in 30 overs. But I dont think we are chasing this

Well that was before 3 wickets fell lol

 

[Buffet]

168 in 20 overs. Not too hard with dew coming on this flat pitch, but lots of runs to get. Need a good partnership here.

 

[Iamcoolwhiz]

T20 on . Target 168 to get. Doable these days on this ground

Exactly my thoughts, pak can still pull this off.

 

[Aseem_Khan]

Pakistan team still can win because their Biggest match winner Rizwan on crease that guy is fighter , i like his fighting Spirit and don't forget guys Babar has somewhat luck in his side in icc tournament somehow Pakistan team gets in knockout so this time also they can make it

 

[Amjid Javed]

Pretty much these two need to won the game. Ifti and long tail won't do anything

 

[Devadwal]

Pakistan is ahead of this Chase .so just build a partnership

 

[Omer2002]

Tbh we have not been far off the Aussies score at the same stages of the match....but we don't have the firepower at the end...

That is true and if we look at the whole game it was 100 % to bowl first..our spinners found lots of purchase even though osama got battered..obviously drop catches.were the main reason but babz defo did pathetic captaincy

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

All we need is a partnership now rr is good

see wish for good things.

 

[pakistanisgreat]

Get 7 to 8 an hour

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need to play out of skins here

 

[GLORY OF '92]

I'd have taken this most times but our lower order is too weak and out of confidence. England or NZ would win from here

 

[Sidilicious]

Rizwan does seem to have a very calm and collected demeanour. Didnt see his innings against SL, but in terms of temprament, he seems Dhoniesque (I am not saying he is Dhoniesque in terms of batting or keeping, but in terms of temperament).

 

[7sins]

Need a partnership with these 2 left and right combination will work

 

[jnaveen1980]

Exactly my thoughts, pak can still pull this off.

None of the Australian bowlers have bankable overs in them. It is almost like you can hit any Australian bowler

 

[emranabbas]

Required run rate is creeping to 9 an over

 

[Justcrazy]

Get 7 to 8 an hour

This is not test match , they need per over

 

[pakistanisgreat]

Missed a 4 here by saud

 

[Kroll]

Well he is a rookie with only 7 List A match experiences amd they expect him to play a world cup lol.

Babar is more at fault, that ball was not a wicket taking ball, it was short and meant to be hit. Babar is experienced and Mr no 1, he should have done better.

With his recent run, I wasn't confident and had a feeling he wouldn't do anything of note.

 

[Shafi]

Rizwan, Saud, Shafiq are better batsman than Babar, Babar has been badly exposed and he will be dropped in near future.

 

[Firebat]

Consistent strike rotation and a boundary per over. Stay calm, stay calculated.

 

[7sins]

Required run rate is creeping to 9 an over

No it's still 8.55

 

[Justcrazy]

Every over Pakistan need to find a boundary some way

 

[saqib.rai]

WE ARE WINNING THIS

proud of the boys. Congrats to everyone except people on this forum and on toxic media who unnecessarily criticize our team all the time

168 in 20 overs. Not too hard with dew coming on this flat pitch, but lots of runs to get. Need a good partnership here.

The only people still thinking Pakistan have a chance in this are indians like you

 

[jnaveen1980]

Today they might pull it off. But if they are up against a two inform bowlers this strategy won't work. They need to hit sixes

 

[shah_1]

Lack of quality is the reason I don't trust them to win this game.

 

[Sir-fraz]

I have never compared Babar with any batsman.

Babar is his own player, man, and King.

Please do keep up.

Babar fan boys need to stop, just makes it worse when he fails. He does not have a clutch gene. Its evident by now throughout his career.

 

[pakistanisgreat]

Good 8 of the over. One gone 19 to go

 

[Justcrazy]

At some point of time Pakistan would need couple of big overs to keep pressure away

 

[JattMaula]

almost a six!

 

[7sins]

Lots of slower balls by Australia pacers

 

[shah_1]

Lack of quality is the reason I don't trust them to win this game.

Otherwise it is not difficult

 

[pakistanisgreat]

One over of 15 to 20 will ease the things

 

[Firebat]

These guys are finding the boundary every over, good stuff

 

[Buffet]

How can Pakistan is unable to hit six even when they paly lofted shots. This ground gets lots of six.

 

[Marooned]

WE ARE WINNING THIS

No we aren't. Dish it out if we win. The humble pies would taste sweet then.

 

[Iamcoolwhiz]

Really surprised by the regression in Australianbowling. Not even keeping tight lengths. Glad to have good bowlers with India. This is such a new feeling.

 

[Asif321]

these are last hope

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need some help from dew

 

[CerebralPatriot]

Only Saud can win us the game

Rizwan and Ifti are not threat for the big teams

 

[viking2559]

Lol this saud is supposed to be the best player of spin bowling

 

[7sins]

Spinners in have to attack now

 

[AAli98]

I’d that idiot Osama hadn’t dropped that catch Aus wouldn’t have crossed 260

 

[Justcrazy]

Too many dot balls being played , need to make use of each ball here

 

[pratiktc]

These 4 ovs of the 5th bowler have to disappear for 45

 

[Marooned]

Pakistan is ahead of this Chase .so just build a partnership

If you are poor, just get money

 

[Aviator]

For once pakistan need iftikhar to perform under pressure.

 

[vodafone_lover]

I have never compared Babar with any batsman.

Babar is his own player, man, and King.

Please do keep up.

again, it has nothing to do anything with you, many others are there. Was just explaining why haters are coming in as always

And there is only 1 king in this cricketing world, need not to speak his name...Your "King" has asked for a signed jersey from him.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Israeli government and Indian nationalists praying for Rizy to fail.

I stand with him.

 

[pakistanisgreat]

Over wasted

 

[viking2559]

Saud shakeel doesn't look international material.

 

[Justcrazy]

Despite a boundary just 5 from that over

 

[NeVerMind]

Only Saud can win us the game

Rizwan and Ifti are not threat for the big teams

Riz just got a four off the last ball of Maxwell over when Saud has been struggling

 

[Nasty Naz]

Dot after dot against Maxwell. Ridiculous stuff.

 

[Firebat]

Rizwan doing all the heavy lifting right now. Saud needs to join the party

 

[Omer2002]

Maxwell with a good over

 

[JattMaula]

Pakistan have kept the RRR in control.

 

[Kroll]

We need a Saud special
