[street cricketer]

This should be a good match.

I remember seeing Asalanka in the U19 world cup. Rajitha is a good bowler as well, sort of Morkel like action.

 

[Suleiman]

If Sharjeel gets going, will end these Sri Lankan bowlers' careers before they have even started.

 

[Rafay Shafiq]

Why playing with SL, not Eng

 

[#GreenRoars]

Didn't see it coming. Good one.

 

[LowKiiSavage]

Sad to see a player like Sharjeel playing for a test side. Total joke.

 

[Chief Destroyer]

SL A and U-19 teams have been pretty impressive lately.

 

[Da_Future_Knick]

SL A 14/1 after 3
Azizullah with the early wicket

 

[Mir jibran]

Pakistan A has one change with Azizullah replacing Asghar

 

[mz123]

no saud shakeel again

 

[Shafi]

Pakistan Squad:::

Sharjeel Khan, Jaahid Ali, Fakhar Zaman, Babar Azam*, Umar Siddiq, Mohammad Nawaz (3), Mohammad Hasan†, Bilawal Bhatti, Hasan Ali, Azizullah, Mir Hamza

*** I would like to see Mohammad Nawaz (3) & Bilawal Bhatti replaced by Ashgar/Sadab and Saud Shakil

 

[Langau]

thankfully Azizullah is playing today, he and hassan ali will be dangerous here.

 

[Hasan123]

Should never have the A team and senior team playing on the same day

 

[Da_Future_Knick]

Here goes Bhatti starting his no balls

 

[Square Drive]

Azizullah in for Asghar, so we're going in with 4 seamers and the lone spin option in Nawaz (obviously considering Fakhar and Babar aren't full-time options).

Aziz makes an impact straight away, though I really think Hasan should've gotten the new ball.

 

[JilaWatan]

Should never have the A team and senior team playing on the same day

why not. they're both only practice games

 

[Langau]

Bhatti Bhatti

 

[Hasan123]

why not. they're both only practice games

A team could do with some attention.

 

[JilaWatan]

A team could do with some attention.

In a practice game?? Neither game is being broadcasted. I'm sure they are on a schedule.

 

[Langau]

Hassan Ali with a beauty, got wicket in his 1st over

 

[Hasan123]

In a practice game?? Neither game is being broadcasted. I'm sure they are on a schedule.

Hardly any warm up games are broadcasted anyway.

 

[JilaWatan]

Hardly any warm up games are broadcasted anyway.

Don't think any attention is being diverted away from the game.

 

[Hasan123]

Don't think any attention is being diverted away from the game.

Not on here but the coverage for the whole tour has been poor by English media.

 

[#GreenRoars]

SL 56/2.

Bowlers bowling good so far.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Sri Lanka A 103/2 (24.0 ov)

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

I still can't believe Bilawal Bhatti of all people made it into the Final XI for our A team

 

[Junaids]

Not on here but the coverage for the whole tour has been poor by English media.

As I have been saying for months, nobody knows or cares about the Pakistan tour yet - it's all about the Euros. The presence of Wales makes it as if England was still there.

And Amir won't get too hard a time - the younger generation doesn't really follow cricket, as it's only on Pay TV.

Also Wimbledon is on also.

The media is only talking about Amir. They are hardly talking about any of our other players

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

Bilawal Bhatti's bowling figures so far

 

[Shafi]

Is Bilawal Bhatti, Basit Ali's relative?

[Hasan123]

Hopefully this is the last time Bhatti is on an A tour.

 

[Ahson8]

Hasan Ali impressive.

 

[hussain.r97]

Hasan Ali doing well despite not being given the new ball. Needs to be given opportunities before our domestic system ruins him.

 

[Azzurri]

Mil have no idea why this Roshene Solve guy hasn't debuted for srilanka yet

[aloo paratha]

Can someone post the link to the radio commentary? If they still have it, they did last game.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Selection of bilawal was questionable and he is proving himself useless once again.

 

[Brilliance]

Pathetic figures for Bhatti. It is bad to see Saud missing out once again. Nawaz is not a batsman.

 

[shah_1]

Bilawal Bhatt again proves what a ZERO he is. It's time to give up on him.

 

[shah_1]

I don't understand is that how bit and pieces cricketer like Nawaz is picked in this format.

 

[aloo paratha]

Sri Lanka scoring freely..

 

[Slog]

Lol is every Pakistani cricketer in England right now?

Senior team. A team. Women's team

 

[Speedster1]

Hassan ali impressing every time hope he is not ruined

 

[saeed5646]

48 Extras
(b 28, lb 9, w 6, nb 5)

No commentary for this game. The previous match had radio coverage because a county team was involved.

 

[aloo paratha]

48 Extras
(b 28, lb 9, w 6, nb 5)

28 Byes???

 

[aloo paratha]

Good from Pakistan. Sri Lanka were going well but Pakistan came back. Sri Lanka 299 all out.

 

[saeed5646]

28 Byes???

yup M.hasan is i think struggling behind the stump.

 

[Yatoo]

Extras : (b 28, lb 13, w 6, nb 5)52
Total :52

 

[saeed5646]

out of 299 there is 52 extras on day 1 in just 79 over which is not good from pakistan specially wicket keeper is very pathetic behind the stump give away 28 runs of bye
target should have been 250 if pakistan have control extras

 

[#GreenRoars]

MashAllah, 4 wickets for Hasan Ali.

 

[saeed5646]

sharjeel loves srilanka team would love to see if he hit big hundred tomorrow but first he needs to survive todays ten overs

 

[mudussir khawer]

Pakistan A vs Srilanka A
Brilliant bowling performance by Pakistan
Now the batsman should score big runs
They should convert their scores of 50 into big hundreds
