Pakistan (355/4) defeat South Africa (352/5) by 6 wickets in a historic chase to book spot in the final of Tri-Nation ODI series against New Zealand

[RedwoodOriginal]

Bro but still a long way to go, Be wary

I know but full credit to both batsmen for an outstanding partnership thus far

 

[Justcrazy]

Required rate is still around 8 , Pakistan need to keep it there.

 

[MMHS]

You think HappyHeart is a batsman?!

He is a hitter - that's what needed in ODIs from No. 7. On this track, under such conditions and against that attack HappyHeart might create a Heart Attack to Temba.

 

[imshally81]

Back to back boundaries

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Can't believe we gave Agha one match in the WC, while Ifti chacha consistently blew it everytime he played

 

[daytrader]

Need a big over of 15+

 

[Nikhil_cric]

This a 400 to 450 pitch for India or Australia

Only at night , maybe. During the day, there was enough reverse and grip and Saffers did as well as anyone could

 

[NeVerMind]

Can't believe we gave Agha one match in the WC, while Ifti chacha consistently blew it everytime he played

Agha and Ayub the two most improved players

 

[MMHS]

Aga is the most improved cricketer in last 2 years - bowls intelligently, fields well, brilliant slip catcher and batting with tremendous responsibility. Limited, but hard working cricketer with a big heart - Imran used to like such players. Was delayed by few years, but better late than never.

 

[Greenstorm]

New target. 275-4/5 after 40 overs.

17 req of 12.

 

[imshally81]

Review time...

 

[batandballbattle]

terrible review that was going down leg clear as day

 

[imshally81]

Review lost as expected ....

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Lovely shot Rizzy

I remember few years ago when Yousuf was batting coach, he named two players Saud and Salman as ones to look out for. At the time, I thought that Salman is yaari dosti player (typical Lahoria) but he has proven me wrong.

 

[batandballbattle]

twin tons to take us home guys c'mon!

 

[pratiktc]

Today Iffy and Wasay will praise Rizzu

 

[daytrader]

Today Iffy and Wasay will praise Rizzu

Who the fudge are they

He couldn't hit water if he fell out of a boat! All he does is play dot ball after dot ball when he comes in and then gets out...just praying we don't see him come out tonight.

 

[pratiktc]

Need a big over of 15+

There are 2 overs left of Shamsi+Muthu...there Pak will break the chase

 

[Justcrazy]

180 runs partnership so far

 

[Greenstorm]

Who the fudge are they

Some degenerates who are milking jazbati and cricket illiterate Pakistanis.

 

[castortroy]

Karachi wicket the flattest in world cricket?

 

[Greenstorm]

New target. 275-4/5 after 40 overs.

Short by 4 runs but still wickets in hand. We are winning this now.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need 82 runs in 60 balls.

 

[Hellion]

10 runs short A lineup of Fakhar, Bobby, Rizwan and Agha will chase this down by the 49th over.

Looks like they will do it even quicker.

 

[pratiktc]

Ngidi is so desperate he is appealing for everything

 

[SpiritOf1903]

Idiots can't chase over 8 per over. Will lose by 20 odd.

Playing like they have Miller

 

[mominsaigol]

@RizwanT20Champ You have my permission to come out bro. Your favourite player is about to get a 4th century.

 

[Justcrazy]

Both batters in 90s now.

 

[AAli98]

Hopefully Safraz’s career has come to an end today !!

 

[Greenstorm]

Idiots can't chase over 8 per over. Will lose by 20 odd.

Playing like they have Miller

What ? Are we watching the same match ?

 

[NeVerMind]

Karachi wicket the flattest in world cricket?

Not flat enough for the likes of Babar who flops again

 

[daytrader]

Some degenerates who are milking jazbati and cricket illiterate Pakistanis.

I thought he was referring to someone on PP lol

 

[OldWarHorse]

Like clockwork

 

[Aviator]

Just hope that the the two alleged finisher, tayyab and khushdil doesn't mess up... Better if they don't have to bat...

 

[Sunny_majoka]

Is it acting or cramp?

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Rizwan cramping. Wicket sadly falls after theatrics. Hopefully not today

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Is it acting or cramp?

The point is to keep you guessing

 

[GLORY OF '92]

I refuse to believe there are not better options than Naseem, Thyab and Khusdil in Pakistan.

 

[Hellion]

Sometime acting , sometime cramping

 

[Devadwal]

@Rana how are you feeling today after Seeing Rizwan chasing the highest Ever score by Pakistan team.

 

[NeVerMind]

The point is to keep you guessing

For once it is warranted in a 200 plus partnership!

 

[FearlessRoar]

How is it possible for Rizwan to play without getting cramps?

 

[Greenstorm]

@Rana how are you feeling today after Seeing Rizwan chasing the highest Ever score by Pakistan team.

We have chased scores bigger than this.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Rizzy needs to take more electrolytes

 

[Devadwal]

How is it possible for Rizwan to play without getting cramps?

These knocks deserve some acting .no worry .

 

[OldWarHorse]

Chase could be tricky if they lose a wicket here

 

[FearlessRoar]

[daytrader]

Sometime acting , sometime cramping

Let's not forget he was keeping wickets for 50 overs and then this innings. Massive effort

 

[FearlessRoar]

These knocks deserve some acting .no worry .

sometimes acting sometimes cramps lol

 

[Devadwal]

We have chased scores bigger than this.

I think highest is 349?

 

[Major]

@RizwanT20Champ You have my permission to come out bro. Your favourite player is about to get a 4th century.

Sabr sabr. Ever since what happebed in tye world t20 2024, i have ptsd.

Tonight will be fun, but lets wait for the result

 

[Hellion]

We have chased scores bigger than this.

No you haven't . This will be your biggest chase.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Nervous 90s for Agha

 

[pratiktc]

Man Shamsi is such a downgrade from Tahir even today

 

[Major]

How is it possible for Rizwan to play without getting cramps?

Hey if he fakes a heart attack tonight i dont mind. We need him to get his rest to win this game

 

[Greenstorm]

I think highest is 349?

We chased 400+ against NZ in WC.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

100 for Rizwan with a 6

Off 106 deliveries

 

[mominsaigol]

Sabr sabr. Ever since what happebed in tye world t20 2024, i have ptsd.

Tonight will be fun, but lets wait for the result

You have my permission to smack me today even if Pakistan loses. Well played rizwan and Agha

 

[OldWarHorse]

Top knock

 

[Major]

@Rana haan jeee, 100 mein koi issue?

 

[Justcrazy]

SIXXX

Rizwan gets to 100.

 

[batandballbattle]

Captains knock well played rizzu bhai

 

[Caved12]

Nothing new from Rizwan, he’s once again bailing the team out with a well measured innings. Yet, as always, he won’t get the respect he deserves from the usual posters here. What a player!

 

[Devadwal]

We chased 400+ against NZ in WC.

That was not 400+ chase .pakistan won by DLS . Lol

Highest is 349.

 

[daytrader]

Kaptana oh kaptana century by six @Rana

 

[Major]

You have my permission to smack me today even if Pakistan loses. Well played rizwan and Agha

Na no beef with you. You fine poster.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Wow great knock at a great time. Bumrah is glad he is injured. Rizzy is on fire.

 

[shah9425]

Great innings kaptaan

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need 63 runs in 46 balls.

 

[pratiktc]

Pak's last 2 big chases of 300+ both underpinned by Rizwan centuries. He's justified his selection as captain

 

[Deewana Mastana]

201 partnership off 192 between Rizwan and Agha

 

[khyberlion]

I refuse to believe there are not better options than Naseem, Thyab and Khusdil in Pakistan.

All not as bad as Hussain.

 

[Major]

Kaptana oh kaptana century by six @Rana

@Rana is saying it should not had been a six as rizwam took extra rest time. So hypothetically rizwan is on 94. Infact rana jee has substarted y runs so Rizwan is on 88

 

[shah9425]

Nothing new from Rizwan, he’s once again bailing the team out with a well measured innings. Yet, as always, he won’t get the respect he deserves from the usual posters here. What a player!

His bat does the talking

 

[Greenstorm]

That was not 400+ chase .pakistan won by DLS . Lol

Highest is 349.

Whatever, we won that one and considering we were 200/1 after 25 overs with set Fakhar, we would have won anyways.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Well done Salman Ali Agha

First ODI 100

87 balls it's taken

 

[Caved12]

Brilliant knock by Salman!!! What a player!!!!

 

[Major]

Back to back 100s oh man what a night
