What's new

Pakistan A beat Sri Lanka A by 8 wickets in the 2nd unofficial Test

Really Really good batting... They're getting 5+ runs an over just in singles and doubles...
Is this the new generation??:yk2

The game has turned into a mini ODI so that's why he clicked now, I will give him credit though, but he needs to improve his temperament when batting in first innings especially, a 'gem' must average above 50 in FC.

Our bigger concern in ODI, where he hasn't done too bad. So credit should be given to him.

However, it doesn't mean he should work on his game at Test level.
 
Babar playing good but he needs to learn how to not bog down and throw away his wickets when the things are not going in his favor and of course strike rotation.
 
Amazingly well calculated innings by these two. Are we sure they're Pakistanis :facepalm:

Still I am not impressed with Babar , may be he can maintain an avg in mid 30s in ODis but nothing more than that.

He is a 40+ average player. No way he is a Mid 30 avg Player. If he does average that then its the failure of the system and PCB.
 
Saud wasn't a player who I knew loads about other than what pp posters have said about him. Today he has shown me that he has some talent and ability. Keep working hard boy!

Well then Umar Akmal is 45+ avg player going by his amazing talunt , I am seeing lots of similarities between Umar and Babar except that Babar is not as fluent as Umar in stroke play and also the intimidating factor is also missing but may be his concentration level is just tad bit better than Umar hence I am predicting similar avg to Umar Akmal in ODis for him.
 
And now a four.. he was waiting for his mate to get to his fifty before going for the jugular
 
Credit to Inzi for selecting babar and Saud. But even more credit to both for good innings in a pressure situation.
 
I was due to go down to Worcester on Sunday but my lad was playing so I couldn't. I may have missed some decent talent coming through.
 
This is an awesome victory!!! - Will boost the confidence of right guys Babar, Saud, Hassan :14: :))
 
Saud hits the winning runs Masahallah.


Congratulations to all of your for this great win - Considerations to all Lankan fans.
 
Opened and took the responsibility of winning the game. Finishes the game now with a strike rate of 140
 
Absolutely brilliant chase by two young lads. Very pleasing to see.
 
Great result and positive performances from Babar, Saud, M. Hasan, Hasan Ali and others.

There'll be a one-dayer vs Glamorgan on Friday before the one-day tri-series with England A and Sri Lanka A commences on Monday.

Great win. We wouldve lost if Shehzad had opened in place of Babar

indeed a great win. But their real test will be against england lions in england in odis. (sadly we did not play them in 4 days)

This will get a better indication of these players
 
beautiful batting from the 2 future prospects of Pakistan. Really hope Saud makes it into the ODI squad very soon, even the Test side too
 
This may get lost in the fine print, but it is very very impressive that Babar promoted himself to open and played like a true brave leader.


Future captain right there folks
 
at what time is the pak game tmrw ? BTW, great win for pak A, Saud should be included in Odi squad against west indies.
 
Hopefully they can put up a display like this against the English lions bowlers who will be better then a lot of international teams bowlers.
 
Good to see Saud scoring. I've only a few highlights of him, he looked a quality batsman.

Hope Inzi spots Ahsan Ali soon.

He will remain ordinary.

Hasan has bowled like a champ with the new and old ball throughout the tour getting crucial breakthroughs.

Shadab may well be ordinary, never seen him bowl... but wickets are wickets. This was his FC debut and he took a trio of key wickets.
 
Looks like a great planned chase. This Pak A team has some steel.

Would love to see a match between Ind A vs Pak A.

Trouble is I don't know the full squad of our reserve team.
 
Should bring in Zia ul Haq and Ammad Butt for Azizullah and Mir Hamza for the LOI's.
 
Not surprised that Babar Azam, Saud Shakil and Hassan Ali have impressed. Very calm chase from two extremely talented batsmen. Shadab Khan's performance was a bit of surprise. Alot to be positive for...

Sharjeel in whites..can't make sense out of it..
 
LONDON – : Chairman PCB Shaharyar Khan has congratulated Pakistan ‘A’ team on its comprehensive eight-wicket victory in its second unofficial test against Sri Lanka ‘A’ at New Road ground in Worcestershire on Wednesday.

Chairman PCB spoke to Pakistan ‘A’ manager Col. (Retd) Naushad Ali and coach Basit Ali on a superb all-round performance of the team that resulted in a thrilling win.

“Kindly convey my congratulations to the boys and urge them to keep up the good work”, said Chairman PCB, while talking to manager Naushad Ali.

Pakistan ‘A’ now play a 50-overs match against Glamorgan before featuring in a tri-nation series, with England Lions and Sri Lanka ‘A’ being the other two teams.
 
Great performance from Pakistan A team but its doom and gloom for Pakistan cricket, eh? [MENTION=79064]MMHS[/MENTION]

He is a good poster without any qualm. However, i have read far too many posts of his 'predicting' Pakistani side to crash to the standards of Nepal and what not. :)

May be you need to spend few more years in PP before you think you have read "too many". On a side note - must have got too excited with the win, therefore forgetting the format.
