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

[asyed]

Sharjeel has to be a permanent member of both ODIs and T20Is

Better to have 20-1 in overs 2, rather than 5-1 runs in 2 overs.

 

[asyed]

Why not, if you dont play AA And which is not possible, because he is a Kaptaaaaan.

, yes, this coming ENG ODI series means a lot for AA not only as captain but also as player.

 

[asyed]

Seems like there are no demons on this pitch.

 

[enderwillrise]

Excellent strike rotation.

We have 20 more overs or they can be extended?? - Sharjeel is must for ODIs and AUS tour...

 

[Khan12]

sharjeel gone.

 

[asyed]

Shajju is gone .

 

[asyed]

Onus on Babar now.

 

[srh]

khail khutum

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Time for Babar to prove he is the best batsman in Pakistan. Good to see him open and try to lead from the front. In ODIs I see him as our future opener once he is established.

Don't think overs can be extended once you've passed the time for the close of the match, which is in 15 mins... but they can take extra time to get the overs in.

only in your mind he is the the best batsman in Pakistan. time to wake up and face the reality

 

[Seller1984]

All they need is 6 runs an over if they keep up with the same strike rotation they will win, just need to hit the odd bad ball to the boundary

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Best young*

 

[yasir]

Not that I know of.

8 off the first over.

That's really bad, wanted to see us winning here... Cricinfo was saying min 20 overs left today....

 

[Sarfarazian92]

4 dot balls in 4 overs. WOW

 

[Syed1]

Amazingly commendable move by Babar to promote himself to open.


A real Pakistani tiger this lad..


A far cry from the quivering scardy cats like Misbah, Azhar etc etc..

 

[Khan12]

Nazwaz has had a decent tour thus far.

 

[asyed]

That's really bad, wanted to see us winning here... Cricinfo was saying min 20 overs left today....

Pakistan A is playing purposely, 111 runs in 18 overs with 9 wickets remaining is very much doable.

 

[Syed1]

damn nawaz gone

 

[Sarfarazian92]

Nazwaz has had a decent tour thus far.

And he's out!

 

[Abdullah719]

That's really bad, wanted to see us winning here... Cricinfo was saying min 20 overs left today....

You're not following me.

20 overs is the minimum, but they can't exceed that once they pass the allocated time.

But yesterday they played till almost 8 PM local time (now is around 6 PM) so getting these 20 overs in shouldn't be an issue.

We basically need 110 in 18 overs now.

And Nawaz out.

 

[Hasan123]

2 youngster beauties at the crease now. Hope they deliver.

Wouldn't mind see Hasan Ali promoted as a pinch hitter here.

 

[asyed]

Amazingly commendable move by Babar to promote himself to open.


A real Pakistani tiger this lad..


A far cry from the quivering scardy cats like Misbah, Azhar etc etc..

Also add the clown who only claim to 'lead from front',

 

[Syed1]

Nazar laga dein ap bus

 

[Khan12]

Nazar laga dein ap bus

i take the blame for his dismissal.

 

[hur rizvi]

LOL even 2-0 is on

 

[asyed]

Shoot, Nawaz is gone. Need somebody to support Babar. High hopes from Saud.

Ok, thanks.... It's 20/20 style but with test fielding, which is tricky but doable...

 

[Abdullah719]

4 dot balls in 4 overs. WOW

Perhaps Angelo Mathews came out to lead the team as he did in that chase in Sharjah.

 

[asyed]

2 consecutive 4's by skipper. Still game is on.

 

[Hasan123]

Babar should play aggressor here, he is set. Saud should just rotate for now

 

[Hasan123]

Can't believe sky don't televise these games when there are many Asians in UK who follow cricket

 

[hur rizvi]

Target under 100, should play sensibly for 5-6 overs and go after bowlers in last 10

 

[Syed1]

96 in 16 overs.. translates to a required run rate of 6 RPO..

Tough but doable

 

[Syed1]

Also add the clown who only claim to 'lead from front',

Exactly..

 

[asyed]

This Saud seems very good at strike rotation. A rare commodity (but pleasant) in our cricket.

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Are we seriously chasing this ?? 94 odd runs in 15 overs is extremely difficult

 

[Syed1]

Wonderful to see all batsmen playing at SR of over a 100

 

[asyed]

Our two young and best upcoming prospects at the crease with an ideal game situation.

In a perfect world, these two should win the game and get their 50's. Hope I'm not asking too much!!!

 

[asyed]

Wonderful to see all batsmen playing at SR of over a 100

Plus notice the strike rotation. :ahmed must be biting his nails.

 

[Syed1]

If another wicket falls then Hasan Ali should be sent in to go hell to leather. If he fails then send Shadab.

Save Jahid and Abdur Rehman as insurance policy, in case we have to block out the overs.

 

[Sarfarazian92]

Perhaps Angelo Mathews came out to lead the team as he did in that chase in Sharjah.

Babar to replicate Azhar's innings.

 

[Abdullah719]

Looking at the number of singles being scored, I think SL A have fallen into the same trap that Mathews fell for in Sharjah. We need 6 an over and they've put everyone at the boundary.

 

[asyed]

Are we seriously chasing this ?? 94 odd runs in 15 overs is extremely difficult

Bro, they're in full T20 mode. Haven't you seen their strike rates? The intend is there and everyone is lovin it.

 

[idrizzy]

Are we seriously chasing this ?? 94 odd runs in 15 overs is extremely difficult

Yeah, for Pakistan it's difficult. This is Pakistan A where we're fearless. I think we've definitely got this game, despite the 2 out.

 

[Syed1]

Too many dots in that over

 

[#GreenRoars]

Should have sent Hasan Ali.

 

[Hasan123]

One of Saud or babar should bat till the end. Hasan Ali and Shadab should be the next 2 batsmen

 

[Abdullah719]

Too many dots in that over

5 runs aagaye still. We need 6 an over. Chill.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Are we seriously chasing this ?? 94 odd runs in 15 overs is extremely difficult

Yo bro, and a from Kaptaan.

 

[Hasan123]

What is the field placing like? Does anyone know?

 

[Khan12]

Both Suad and Babar are serious batting talents

 

[Syed1]

Man this is so exciting.. can't remember the last time I was this excited when Pakistan was batting

 

[asyed]

Too many dots in that over

I think we only need 6 per over, so we're in good shape.

 

[Hasan123]

Babar hits a 4 and dot ball the next ball!!! Come on get rotating the strike

 

[asyed]

Man this is so exciting.. can't remember the last time I was this excited when Pakistan was batting

True, better than senior LOI team.

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Kaptan Playing too many dots Babar get a move on !!!

 

[Syed1]

Babar hits a 4 and dot ball the next ball!!! Come on get rotating the strike

He hit 6 now.. khush?

 

[asyed]

Babar hits a 4 and dot ball the next ball!!! Come on get rotating the strike

And then he hits 6

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Kaptaan on :AAG

 

[street cricketer]

Pakistan going smooth in a chase

 

[Hasan123]

He hit 6 now.. khush?

Yes especially if we win

 

[Syed1]

True, better than senior LOI team.

Look at the depth man.. We have three batsmen (M.Hasan, H.Ali and S.Khan) who we can send in to go crazy and will still have 3-4 proper batsmen left to block or rotate the strike.

Add Amir to this team and it will beat the senior ODI side in atleast 7 games out of 10..

 

[#GreenRoars]

Kaptaan on fire

 

[Hasan123]

And then he hits 6

Good timing . Hopefully one of these 2 stays till the end.

 

[asyed]

Pakistan going smooth in a chase

This is the beauty of time. It never remains the same!!!

 

[#GreenRoars]

Man this is so exciting.. can't remember the last time I was this excited when Pakistan was batting

Haha and funny thing is we aren't even watching

 

[Hasan123]

Pakistan going smooth in a chase

Bro don't you know that our 2 future prospects are batting?

 

[Syed1]

Pakistan going smooth in a chase

Some times I feel like you are a bigger fan of Pakistan than India

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Babar is just leagues above any other young batsman in the country. Both Babar and Saud will bat in top 4 in ODIs in the future IA

 

[asyed]

Good timing . Hopefully one of these 2 stays till the end.

I really hope so too. very excited about this game.

 

[Hasan123]

Haha and funny thing is we aren't even watching

) very true bro. It's a shame this isn't telivised

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Some times I feel like you are a bigger fan of Pakistan than India

Would be the ultimate troll if this turns out to be true

 

[Hasan123]

I really hope so too. very excited about this game.

I have never been this excited about an A game. Usually I keep upto date with the score and some players peformance.

 

[asyed]

So here is the equation. They're accomplished 71/2 in 9.0 overs. Now we need another 76 runs in 13.5 overs with 8 wickets remaining. Very much doable.

 

[Khan12]

I hope Saud and Hasan Ali make the ODI squad.

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

unbelievable strike rotation man is this really our boys batting ???

Mashallah !!

 

[Syed1]

So here is the equation. They're accomplished 71/2 in 9.0 overs. Now we need another 76 runs in 13.5 overs with 8 wickets remaining. Very much doable.

This is what happens when you play positively and at a RR of 7-8 from the start of the innings, rather than conserving wickets and trying to go crazy in the last 10..
