Pakistan [378, 86/3] defeat South Africa [220, 245] by 7 wickets in the 1st Test in Karachi

[Indiafan]

Hope this does not become a Sydney 2010 test situation

 

[Justcrazy]

It’s Pakistan team bro you are over rating them they can turn maxwell into muralitharan so anything is possible

Pakistan lower middle order can weather that storm , trust me

 

[aqeelPK]

U watching highlights of some other match bro ?

Anything over 150 will be difficult to chase here especially with the amount of reverse swing & uneven bounce on offer.

 

[Justcrazy]

If South Africa get over 130 Pakistan in deep trouble

I doubt if SA can even defend 230 on this pitch with the spinners they have

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Faheem consistently at 80mph

 

[Justcrazy]

Anything over 150 will be difficult to chase here especially with the amount of reverse swing & uneven bounce on offer.

Other than Rabada there are no wicket taking options for SA , I do not think he can get a 8 wicket haul and win for SA

 

[Mean&Green]

Wasim- Great shot straight to the batsman :rofl

 

[ethan hunt]

Taking the new ball made little sense here.
The pacers were getting good reverse.

 

[azimiqbal]

Problem is. It the spinners it’s the variable bounce the pacers will get

 

[Mean&Green]

Hope this does not become a Sydney 2010 test situation

U seriously had to eh

 

[Energy]

Wasim- Great shot straight to the batsman :rofl

Still waiting for his story on Aleem Dar. Poor guy chose the wrong time now it's drinks.

 

[Mainul]

Pakistan has a bad reputation of letting away matches to lower order of opposition batsman. Is this the another example?will the history be repeated again? Pakistan could not change 145 against South Africa in Pakistan, in 1997 I think?

 

[Deewana Mastana]

This partnership has already started to hurt Pakistan

42 runs already 76 runs lead

 

[Energy]

Pakistan did well to remove QdK. But expect SA to score a few more runs while the ball is new.

 

[Madplayer]

Man Pakistan needs to bowl them out before they cross the 100 run lead. Otherwise this could get interesting.

I dont want an interesting match. i want a boring win.

That SA attack was far superior than this one

You are underestimating Pakistan batting here , on this pitch 200 can be chased easily

 

[Mainul]

That SA attack was far superior than this one

And that Pakistan batting line up was far superior than this one too

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Linde gone

Nauman strikes

 

[Madplayer]

Bro we have strong reasons to worry. The batting line up is unreliable under pressure. I m sure you'd agree.

A Wicket falls finally as we speak.

 

[Mean&Green]

Rest In Peace ramiz raja commentary leg slip is not needed lmao

 

[Deewana Mastana]

This partnership has already started to hurt Pakistan

42 runs already 76 runs lead

Excellent that we've broken the partnership.

Please not another one now...don't let anymore develop now

 

[Justcrazy]

OUT

seven down , SA ship sinks another yard

 

[azimiqbal]

Ramiz raja commentary gold
“There is no point of that leg slip”
Next ball linde is caught at leg slip

 

[Babar_Azam_fan]

Looks like both the openers, Abid and Imran will keep getting selected just based on their brilliance in catching

 

[Mean&Green]

Still waiting for his story on Aleem Dar. Poor guy chose the wrong time now it's drinks.

It was so stupid talking about social media and how aleem was getting it for making wrong decisions but who will tell wasim aleem dar has been quite mediocre for a good three years now

 

[Justcrazy]

Excellent that we've broken the partnership.

Please not another one now...don't let anymore develop now

Even if Gary Kirsten and Kallis comes out to bat here , the result wont change

 

[Shariq7]

Rest In Peace ramiz raja commentary leg slip is not needed lmao

Poor Ramiz, not the sharpest tool in the shed.

 

[Mean&Green]

Even if Gary Kirsten and Kallis comes out to bat here , the result wont change

Please don’t disrespect the legend that kallis is like that he’s probably better than any player we’ve ever produced

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Even if Gary Kirsten and Kallis comes out to bat here , the result wont change

Which is...till both team haven't batted and the last ball not bowled it shouldn't be over.

 

[Mean&Green]

People just don’t understand how hard it is to keep on these low bouncing wickets rizwan is doing a tremendous job

 

[shady]

This is why Faheem is so useful. Even if he's not threatening to take wickets he's building pressure by not giving the bastmen an inch

 

[Shariq7]

God, what is going on with our fast bowlers? Do they think they are going to get a ticket if they go over 130 Km?

 

[Slim]

Like i said yesterday, keep calm. We got this!

 

[Mobashir]

The problem with SA is that the spinners they have are mediocre, they are not going to bother Pakistan batsmen here , so even 220 will be chased by Pakistan.

We aren't that good against left arm spinners even when they are médiocres.

Then, their pacers can good as they are tall, quick and that can be very helpful on this tracks with variable bounce.

 

[Mean&Green]

God, what is going on with our fast bowlers? Do they think they are going to get a ticket if they go over 130 Km?

Oh Bhai pace isn’t even needed here on top of that Rabada was trundling at 128 kph so why would you expect faheem to bowl 140

 

[Justcrazy]

Lunch will be one hour today because of Friday ! Long session

 

[volcyz]

It will be over soon and a breezy easy win for Pakistan

 

[MenInG]

 

[Justcrazy]

Which is...till both team haven't batted and the last ball not bowled it shouldn't be over.

Both teams have already batted once and Pakistan were far ahead

 

[MenInG]

 

[Justcrazy]

Please don’t disrespect the legend that kallis is like that he’s probably better than any player we’ve ever produced

I agree he is , but that is the point , he cannot also save SA here

 

[Slim]

Chachuuuuuu <3

 

[Madplayer]

Hasan ali drops a sitter but Nauman gets the bowled next ball.

Rubbish fielding though from Hassan.

 

[Justcrazy]

If SA had quality left arm spinner here , Pakistan would have struggled to get 220 here , point is they simply do not have

 

[Slim]

Please don’t disrespect the legend that kallis is like that he’s probably better than any player we’ve ever produced

Hyperbole extreme

 

[azimiqbal]

Brilliant bowling from nauman, bowled patiently and beautifully today

 

[Justcrazy]

View attachment 106551

Pakistan would not come in the list today

 

[lahoriyah1234]

Would you rather take a win today or loss to get rid if Misbah?

 

[Mean&Green]

So Rabada didn’t take even a single

 

[Justcrazy]

100 is maximum Pakistan will have to chase , a 7 wicket win here

 

[Amjid Javed]

Brilliant delivery by nauman. Lets hope we can take last 2 wickets quickly here.

 

[Mean&Green]

Would you rather take a win today or loss to get rid if Misbah?

Loss

 

[Hyder]

On a side note hasan should ve easily taken that.

 

[badsha001]

all credits to Faheem for creating a pressure from the other end. He bowled quite a few maidens in a row right?

 

[Justcrazy]

Would you rather take a win today or loss to get rid if Misbah?

Misbah will stay no matter how many Pakistan loose

 

[Slim]

Hahaha hassan ali!

 

[Amjid Javed]

Would you rather take a win today or loss to get rid if Misbah?

A win, misbah will get kicked out eventually

 

[Slim]

Would you rather take a win today or loss to get rid if Misbah?

LOL. Win any day. I dont care who is the coach as long as we are winning.

 

[Mean&Green]

This South African team always has to do some shady **** lmao

 

[lahoriyah1234]

Its the biggest disappointment for us, That Misbah is going to continue, but i am happy he is not selector any more. Looks like Mohd Wasim will have his say in the coming tour’s which is only positive we take.

Lets see how we play in Pindi.

 

[Slim]

Is it me or Nauman chacho adorable as hell.

 

[MenInG]

Hasan Ali!

Lol

 

[lahoriyah1234]

De Kock is the most uninspiring leader SA ever had. I feel sorry for him, Captaincy is not his cup of tea. I will give it to Rabada SA need that aggression again. Has there ever been a colour player SA Captain?

 

[Gullycricket]

Is it me or Nauman chacho adorable as hell.

Think it would be just you

 

[Slim]

BOOM, another one down by the chachoo

 

[Slim]

Think it would be just you

Cmon bro, arent older buzurg adorable to you. Dont be such a sociopath.

 

[Gullycricket]

I want to see us win. Rest don't matter. Misbah power has already been curtailed lot. With Yousuf, Younis involved too it's good

 

[Justcrazy]

This has been a clinical performance by Pakistan

 

[azimiqbal]

Nauman had a dream debut

 

[Amjid Javed]

Another one for nauman. His 4th

SA 9 down now.

 

[Bigboii]

Nomi uncle nearing a fifer

So proud of him that domestic grind is finally paying off

 

[Justcrazy]

I told right at the start SA will struggle to get 100 runs lead

 

[Gullycricket]

Bavuma is so stupid. Stupid even more than Azhar . He is giving tailenders to face 5 balls every over

 

[lahoriyah1234]

Sad Nauman has come off so late in Pakistan team, justice of our cricket system. Kab Merit pe selection hogi and we introduced talent earlier.

 

[Cryin Out Loud]

Lol at nervous fans. It's natural though.

But Pakistan has this in the bag.

 

[Justcrazy]

SA , Pakistan and Sri Lanka when play each other will always provide good games , because all are same level

 

[Bigboii]

Is it me or Nauman chacho adorable as hell.

+1 he looks like the chachoo who let's you play on his smartphone and brings ice cream for you whenever he meets you

 

[lahoriyah1234]

Babar and Azhar to win it for us.
