England lions are 134-5
Pakistan A in commanding position
 
PAK TEAM TODAY 6 PROPER BATSMEN with 7th is wicketkeeper and 3 allrounder bilal asif ,fahim ashraf ,M.Nawaz
Only one proper bowler M.Abbas WAOOH Pakistan is playing save to avoid batting collapse
interestingly Eng is struggling with bat 176/9 batting first
 
It's crazy to see our A team having the same thought process as current top order. Ok, it MAY be difficult to bat on, but 0 from 16 (at one stage) really?!

Our team is stuck in the 90's mentality, try and save wickets at the start of an innings...mind boggling.
 
This will be the real test for Nawaz . If he wins Pak A from here , he should be selected. If he too sccumbs under pressure then we have lots of them.
 
Most of these batsmen average in high 40s domestically. Either they are good or the bowling is really bad.

But when we see Pakistani bowlers averaging low 20s with ball in domestic cricket, we say we have poor batsmen, hence the good bowling averages:137:
 
These two (Asif and Zohaib) need to finish the game. Only 46 are needed in 10.3 overs with no pressure!
 
Why is Junaid Not playing ? apparently from being compared to starc he isn't good enough to make "A" Team of Pakistan... He is decline has been worse than Fernando Torres

Didn't take any wicket in both matches he played, so rightly discarded.
 
40 runs 58 balls and 6 wickets. Need to accelerate now Asif and Zobby.

No need bro, you know how we throw wickets when we try to take charge, right?

Need 37 runs on 52 ball with 6 wickets in hand. Also, RRR is 4.40 and CRR is 3.49. So they're not doing bat.
 
Asif Zakir going from 1 in 18 balls to 49 off 77. Somebody do the math and let me know if its good or bad.
 
A boundary and 5 singles in an over. Now I've seen everything.
 
So if we win this, it will be 2-2, if I'm not mistaken. If so it will be a decider and will go the T20 way.
 
a hard fought win like this really pleases you.
 
It's funny Junaid Khan was the captain for the first 2 games and Pakistan A lost both the games. The next 2 games Junaid is dropped and Fawad Alam is made captain and Pakistan A wins both the games

Not good but the total they were chasing was measly.

Though we don't need players in odi team who start their innings slowly. We have a lot of them already.
 
Good stuff from the boys to level series after being 2-0 down.
 
well done Zohaib khan.openers pathetic as usual.can't rotate strike to save their lives
 
Asif Zakir needs to be in the next ODI squad

Good win and something that us fans needed within the 50 over format of the game. But seriously there's no need to play so cautiously when chasing a small target, the openers should be taking risks and plundering boundaries which will make it easier for the next batsmen coming to knock down the total.
 
M. Nawaz and Fakhar Zaman should be selected as soon as possible. They are much much better than Shahzad , Hafeez and Maqsoos, and they are such electric fielders.
