Pakistan [342/8] beat Bangladesh [341/7] by two wickets in the ICC Champions Trophy warm-up

[adil_909]

about 150 required in 15 overs with two set batsmen at the crease. shouldn't be impossible to chase down with modern day batting.

 

[super hitter]

I wish we loose this match but with a very small margin, 5-15 runs max

 

[captain crook]

Wish we had a telecast of the match. Lot of posters are making their own assumptions based on the scorecard they see

 

[MMHS]

Looks like Mian is learning tricks to prolong career till 2023 ..............

 

[New Yorker]

Mossaddek who is tying Pakistan up so effectively averages 41 so far in his career.

 

[Pollack]

SA chasing similar target and just look at the difference in their approach

Pakistan were going by similar approach to South Africa now. SA is scoring at run rate of 5.8 . The only difference being De Kock and devilliers have higher gears to switch to while Pakistani batsmans were batting at their top gear. Cut long story short- Approach is not the only problem but ability(lack of) is also.

 

[captain crook]

Lol he has played 30 balls when exactly is he planning to be settled?

Maybe I exaggerated. Imad has a good cricketing brain and some sharp wits about his batting and bowling. He will do well if given proper chances up the order. My two cents.

 

[New Yorker]

We also didn't bowl our best bowler.

Not evident that Amir is better than Hasan

 

[captain crook]

AB gone

Imagine if RSA screws this up and Malik somehow conjures victory

 

[wasimjunior]

We should send Fakhar in next now. A win like this would be great for morale

 

[Executioner]

Bangladesh will want wickets right now

Imad.and Malik both dangerous batsmen.

 

[Nil Dhumrojal]

I take back what I said about Bangladesh.

What you said bro?

 

[Syed1]

I'm sorry you wanted Imran Khan Jr. to be in the test squad so I'd take your word with a bucket of salt.

5 fielders out in the last 10 these days. Shouldn't keep more than 90 for the last 10

Don't forget we still have our best batsman Haris also waiting in there

Well South Africa choking is always a distinct possibility.

WHHHAAATTT! Did he say that?

 

[Syed1]

BD captain being proactive bringing back Taskin to look for wickets.

 

[imteaz]

Bangladesh bowling with all part timer? Sarkar, Musaddek, Sunzamul, saiful none of them bowl in real match.
Still Pakistan can't make runs, hmm

 

[marlonbrowndo]

5 wides

5 wides lmao..

Are you sure Imad batting I dont think so?

BD has just finished a series in UK and have match practice. This is our first match and actually we are well on our way to chasing this.

 

[adil_909]

That's true, they shouldn't have left this many runs to chase this late. But with sensible modern day batting, 150 should be chaseable with two set batsmen over the span of 15 overs. Problem is one of them will probably get out trying to accelerate, and we'll probably be all out around 270-280 which is our average 2nd innings score in ODIs

 

[Hamza_]

Malik gone

 

[Syed1]

Are you sure Imad batting I dont think so?

Why do you think so?

 

[imteaz]

And there goes one more wicket.

CI hasn't updated yet. Where are you guys following the scores?

 

[Zaib_Mirza]

Why do you think so?

Both right hander batting and I think imad is lefty [MENTION=9]Saj[/MENTION] can confirm

 

[maanleo]

Who else? Are you watching some stream?

 

[Nil Dhumrojal]

Taskin should be out of bd team

Malik thinking about his century?

 

[Nil Dhumrojal]

Shoaib malik gone

 

[captain crook]

CI main page

The headline says "Maik falls but required rate climbs". Shouldn't it be "Malik falls and required rate climbs"

 

[super hitter]

shadab on, like why?

 

[Shaan]

Malik gone!!

 

[adil_909]

Just like I predicted lol. Get ready for 270 all out

Gillespie has a double century against us.

 

[super hitter]

I really wish Pakistan crosses 300

 

[Zaib_Mirza]

Who else? Are you watching some stream?

Maybe its Fahim or Fakhar some fb stream now stopped

 

[Rayyman]

shadab on, like why?

Good, let him get batting practice. Who cares about the win.

 

[Usman Chadda]

MashaAllah Shadab Khan showing off his Test match credentials.

Run rate climbing to 11

It's not about caring for the win. It looks like they decided to not play Haris and Fakhar and giving practice to tailenders. Why not have them at and then decide who should be in the starting XI? Anyway, we were never looking to just win here, it's all about practice.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Good decision. It looks like this will be the 11 against India and it's important for the lower order batsman to get practice too. Shadab has a lot of potential with the bat

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Taskin needs to be called for chucking for good, hope his career comes to an end

 

[captain crook]

Imad thrashes Taskin Ambrose for a boundary on the last ball of the over.

 

[omorst7]

We also didn't bowl our best bowler.

Mustafiz, Rubel & Miraz not used yet!!

 

[Usman Chadda]

I don't understand Pakistan's approach here. Is there a Shahid Afridi waiting for his turn that can get us these runs? The lack of intent is horrific to say the least. Dot balls galore.

Pakistan are doing quite well, they can chase this down

Be positive bro, Pakistan is an unpredictable side. Anything can happen

Only if we sleep before sehar without eating and dream about it.

Yeah just 2 overs so far, lol and he got Malik in this 1st over,

This is a practice match according to some posters hence going for a win isn't important. Maybe the batters are practicing their Test match skills in the middle.

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Mashrafee's man love for Taskin needs to come to an end, even Akram Khan can bowl faster than Taskin

 

[ammar_merry]

Meanwhile Kamran Akmal becomes most expensive player of Afghan T20 league

 

[Hamza_]

Pakistan don't even try to get 300+

If Bangladesh wins I can have Biryani and ice cream for seheri

Best of luck vs India.

Making excuses for these inept clowns will get us nowhere. There is absolutely no intent whatsoever. For all the talk Mickey Arthur has done, his team has done completely the opposite on the pitch.

Taskin is just pathetic why Mortaza allowing him bowl ??

Run out lol

oh runout there !!

You want him to be replaced by Shafiul?

 

[Zak_Fan]

Not a bad chase by Pakistani standards. Would have been a straightforward win against WI B.

Biryani sounds good.

no wonder runout is ineveitable here right now! at this moment everyone must be running like running for tatti

 

[omorst7]

Miraz is bowling now and LOL at Rubel

May be Miraz came in 37th over!! In last few matches Rubel was in playing 11!! not saiful or Taskin!!

Pakistan have always done well in tournaments where we lost the practice matches before the main ones. Example - 1992 wc, 2009 t20 wc. Last CT, we won 2 matches and didn't win a single match in the main round.

Summary - These practice matches are strictly for practice -- to settle in and acclimatize to conditions, but not for winning

 

[idrizzy]

Fahim has an average of 15 in List A and considered an AR? Oh purlease

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Both Shafiul and Taskin are not International Standards. We need mystery bowlers like Mustafiz, I guess Taskin is our best, but the kid's action kinda ruined him. He's useless now

Take out the sly digs brother. We'll see you on 5th June. Please show up.

If Pakistan beat India, deductive reasoning could imply that Bangladesh>Pakistan>India.

I was out of home busy with shopping
and tarabih salat .Bangladesh just hammered Pakistani bowlers.Some well known Pakistani posters were talking highly of their attack.I said that this attack is not much different from the attack which got hammered for 444 .Bangladeshi batsmen has shown where this attack belongs to.India will score 400 plus against them.
