What's new

Pakistan collapse to 6-run defeat in 4th ODI against Australia despite Abid Ali, M Rizwan hundreds

We needed a big hitter to come at this stage and hit few boundaries take Pakistan home. Unfortunately, We haven't been able to find a replacement for Razzaq like player.
 
Umar Dozy Akmal just send him home. I blame The selection committee for picking this TFF. This the end for Umar and that’s great 😀
 
That Rawalpindi chase was inside 40 overs, for the loss of 1 wicket .... against Mac, Warne, Fleming probably McDermott.
 
they need some big hitting now. Singles are not going to do anymore. Need a big 10-15 runs over.
 
It also requires some skills to lose from such a situation i.e 59 off 50 with 8 wickets

Actually losing from such a position is the standard protocol for team Pakistan. The skill to win from such positions is what we dont have.
 
Maxwell shouldnt be allowed to bowl such economical overs at this stage
 
Riz might be slowing down for ton... quite bad mentality if thats the case.
 
Is Umar Akmal really 28 years old? Seems to have been around forever.

Some are lucky to debut at the age of 31, while others have the special touch to debut at 19 and mbe persisted with without much to show for.
 
We will lose this because we are new minnows of cricket
It is so difficult for us to win against top5
 
Despite closing in on his second hundred in the series , i am not sold on rizwan. He too lacks the big shots like haris and babar , too many accumulators and no enforcers.
 
Damn... getting harder. Bad move to send Saad Ali
 
Umar Akmal heard the pressure cooker's whistle and decided to get out
 
You do realise than Shan Masood and Mohammad Rizwan impressed as much, and even beyond that in that same series, but you keep berating them to no end.

Shan Masood is in the team via 'connections' rather than his List A average of 55+ :yk2

Shan has no game.

He has been club level since his debut and bashing some trundlers in sub standard games was never going to change that. It's not a spreadsheet game.
 
Gotta give credit to Australia’s fielding.

It has been top notch.
 
Poor Saad,sorry for him.this isn't his role.
Rizwan should take us home.Looks hard now though.
 
Looks like Rizwan has to forget about his century and go for big hits. Saad Alsi is not even trying to hit boundaries.
 
I feel like Riz is slowing down for his ton, I hope I'm wrong but this is really bad mentality
 
People aren't even watching the game. Rizwan is trying to accelerate. He isn't being selfish.
 
Ok Saad you got two balls... need to get 6-8 off them please.

Imam today... role reversal ;-)
 
Saad looking like another one in the long list of tuk tukiyas
 
He isn't a late order hitter. I think he should bat up the order in the next game so we can judge him.
 
Didn’t see too much of Saad but won’t judge him when he has to hit from the get go...
Would have liked to have seen hhim bat higher up the order.
 
Not ideal situation to debut in... should get the last match of the series as well
