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

[ARK Rafay]

Rizwan should have scored more in the death overs, but he still scored his hundred at a SR of 100+. If we lose, it will be down to Haris. A deplorably lethargic innings.

It is quite ridiculous to lose a game when you are chasing 278 and two of your batsmen have scored hundreds at 90 and 100 SRs.

Only Pakistan is capable of pulling a stunt like this.

Too many players that play below 100SR.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Pakistan were 229 after 43 overs.

49 were required on 42 deliveries , rizwan lazily got to his 100. He is not out and we are losing.

 

[Afhan Ali]

Rizwan the finisher

 

[Green Patriot]

Yasir )

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Yasir to hit 3 sixes

 

[Mueez]

Yasir used to be a handy low-order bat.

Let’s see if he still has it in him.

 

[Savak]

As usual selfish players playing for themselves has cost Pakistan yet another game

 

[xricket]

Can someone please explain that last shot from Rizwan?

In his mind, he hit it for 6

 

[Plumb]

Rizwan is an exact copy of Sarfraz's batting.

Extremely one dimensional and will never win us matches from situations like these.

Don't celebrate.

seriously???

 

[Cric_lover4487]

Has it happened before, 2 centuries in chase and still team lost the match?

 

[ManFan]

This will be a glorious choke, lesson, and "blessing in disguise".

 

[j_kazmi]

How we’re even in this position is beyond me.

 

[Hasan123]

Wide.

 

[Syed1]

Bhai koi nahi Rizwan ki century tou hogayi na.... oskay liyay hi tou hum khelnay aye thay

 

[Sirris]

It is quite ridiculous to lose a game when you are chasing 278 and two of your batsmen have scored hundreds at 90 and 100 SRs.

Haris is the real "Match ka mujrim".

We need to let go if him. Despite his misfortunes.

 

[MMHS]

The target tonight is 278 and not 330. That's why I said 1 century even if it takes 125 balls will be enough to get to that total. Abid Ali has to play selfishly now and get to 100. Don't worry about the run rate. Akmal, imad and Rizwan have to worry about that.

2 Centuries and 17 of 6 balls needed .... and the target is below 280 - now you probably got what I wrote that time.

 

[ARK Rafay]

This will be a glorious choke, lesson, and "blessing in disguise".

No lesson if it is not learned.

 

[JibranAnsari]

We needed only 7 rpo in the last 7 overs with onr batsman approaching his 100 , was easy but rizwan messed it up.

 

[Hawkeye]

Rizwan, Imad Wasim, Sarfraz, Malik.

These are all duds. Will never ever win you matches, even if the required equation is 60 required off 60.

Extremely limited one dimensional batsmen, cannot take on the bowling and never will.

 

[WCWinnerPakistan2019]

Oh my

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

Like I've repeated so many times, Imad is an imposter all-rounder.

He can't bat and certainly can't hit, can't bat in the late overs to win you matches.

Same problem with him, has no game to go after the bowlers.

His bowling is even more poor.

Really dont get the hype.

 

[Afhan Ali]

Against Aussies we always loss

 

[Mamoon]

Champions Trophy Final highlights are still available on YouTube.

 

[Hasan123]

Should have been put away. Stonis is a garbage bowler.

 

[Watsupdoc]

Can’t hit boundaries to save his life

 

[ARK Rafay]

Waiting for India and England in WC19 to set new records against this batting

 

[ManFan]

No lesson if it is not learned.

A lesson for Mickey to lower his expectations once more.

 

[Syed1]

Rizwan, Imad Wasim, Sarfraz, Malik.

These are all duds. Will never ever win you matches, even if the required equation is 60 required off 60.

Extremely limited one dimensional batsmen, cannot take on the bowling and never will.

Funny you are not putting Akmal in the list who is as big of a match ka mujrim as Haris today.... garbage player paindu

 

[Madplayer]

Rizwan gone.

People dont understand how useless he is. Last time he scored a 100 i said that a very bad thing has happened because it will fool a lot of people. He is selfish and lacks ability. He might have some degree of game awareness but that isnt enough.

 

[fluke]

no single player in this team even rested players apart from hafeez who can hit big at the end shame really

 

[Plumb]

time to bump the thread " Rizwan the finisher and most clutch player" talk about hyping a player... only at PP

 

[Afhan Ali]

Champions Trophy Final highlights are still available on YouTube.

Yes but no one was hoping for the victory bcoz we all know these minnows

 

[Hasan123]

We really messed this up.

 

[WCWinnerPakistan2019]

Two centurions!

Should have been finished in 45th over

 

[Nov15]

Is it too late now to schedule a 7 match ODI series against Zimbabwe before the world cup?

 

[ManFan]

This is what I LOVE about Australia, they never know when to quit.

 

[shah_1]

What a choke

 

[Syed1]

Wah bhai wah apni century karkay out shabash.... match har wa diya no problem

 

[AFM]

We are awful

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Who lost the match? Haris Sohail's knock at 58 SR, Masood's 5 ball 0 or Umar Akmal?

 

[TeymurBlake]

Rizwan still played well but should have finished the game.

 

[xricket]

Thats how you lose it. Pakistan inventing new ways to lose from winning position. Selfishness & Perchies won't make us win tournaments. I thought it was easy to understand.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Mashallah.!! Our bench strength

 

[ARK Rafay]

At least we didn't lose by 1 run like we did against Maxwell in that last over. Anybody remember? :uk

 

[Hasan123]

6 by Shinwari) ) )

 

[Mamoon]

Haris is the real "Match ka mujrim".

We need to let go if him. Despite his misfortunes.

I have to agree. He is good but we have too many players who can do the same job without the baggage that he carries. He has been unfortunate, but his attitude hasn't helped his cause either.

 

[Ilan Bluestone]

You have to try to lose in this situation lol

 

[Green Patriot]

Anyways can't blame Rizwan.The guy still scored above a 100+ SR.
Harris wasted so many balls.

Still should have won it,I don't how we lost this,seriously.

 

[iPakistani]

Take the positives out of this game and focus on the real test, England series. No one will remember these matches by the time the world cup comes.

 

[Plumb]

Rizwan, Imad Wasim, Sarfraz, Malik.

These are all duds. Will never ever win you matches, even if the required equation is 60 required off 60.

Extremely limited one dimensional batsmen, cannot take on the bowling and never will.

You do realize Sarfi not playing today?? UA the most dud in the history of pak cricket made 10 comebacks nicely excluded ?? nice

 

[fluke]

this team doesn't deserve 5 - 0 this team deserves 6 - 0 I would request ICC to award another match as bonus to aussies really

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Can't believe ppl are blaming the guy who scored a ton at better than a run a ball . As if the others were batting like AB/Jos!

 

[Titan24]

Haris's innings and taking it till the end costed us

 

[Plumb]

6 by Shinwari) ) )

Shinwari the finisher thread is about to open

 

[Mp812]

Stoinis to Usman Shinwari, SIX, the game is not over yet!

 

[Green Patriot]

Lobia ka kamaal.

 

[shah_1]

Rizwan gone.

People dont understand how useless he is. Last time he scored a 100 i said that a very bad thing has happened because it will fool a lot of people. He is selfish and lacks ability. He might have some degree of game awareness but that isnt enough.

As we have Adam Gilchrist and Dhoni waiting after Sarfraz.

 

[iRfaN_LA]

Everyone preferring individual performance and milestone instead of winning the game.

 

[AFM]

Credit to Australia.

Never gave up.

 

[Plumb]

Haris's innings and taking it till the end costed us

Umar the destroyer Akaml says hi

 

[ManFan]

We deserve to lose this game.

 

[ARK Rafay]

This series is the most boring I've watched in the last 3-4 years

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

Rizwan is an exact copy of Sarfraz's batting.

Rizzu is a better batsman but unlike Sarfraz he seems to be tad selfish.

Sarfraz is one of the selfless player going around. You wont ever see him playing for himself.

 

[Watsupdoc]

Welcome to the new chokers

 

[Cric_lover4487]

Rizwan is a selfish player. For sake of Pak cricket please get rid of him. I also saw Abid Ali giving high 5's in dressing room after his dismissal. As if my job is done. I scored a century on debut, what else you want from me. Minnow mentality.

 

[AFM]

Oh wait a minute.

Usman Razzaq still in

 

[Mamoon]

This choke is as bad as the one against South Africa in Abu Dhabi in 2013. Umar Akmal triggered the collapse on both occasions.

 

[Mp812]

49.5
Stoinis to Usman Shinwari, out Caught by Handscomb!! Usman Shinwari c Handscomb b Stoinis 6(2) [6s-1]
Stoinis to Usman Shinwari, THAT'S OUT!! Caught!!

GAME OVER

 

[Markhor]

This is what I LOVE about Australia, they never know when to quit.

And this is what I HATE about Pakistan, finding new ways to lose from winning positions.

 

[Plumb]

This gotta be a shameful defeat.... embarrassing

 

[Afhan Ali]

Who is sad on this loss?
It least not me

 

[JibranAnsari]

Two hundreds in innings and still managed to lose the match , Hail Rizwan.

 

[Titan24]

Umar the destroyer Akaml says hi

Yes Umar was equally bad

 

[Mamoon]

Pakistan cricket is done and dusted.

 

[Afhan Ali]

Where is Mr Hitler

 

[ARK Rafay]

Rizwan = Sarfraz

Can we sign Sam Billings?

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Is this first time in the history?

 

[Mueez]

I hope this ends the chapter of Umar Akmal.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Even as the most staunch supporter of Umar Akmal, I can't advocate for his place in the squad anymore.

That was horrendous!

This choke is as bad as the one against South Africa in Abu Dhabi in 2013. Umar Akmal triggered the collapse on both occasions.

Nah the worst choke was against Maxwell in 2014 )

 

[iPakistani]

Pakistan cricket is done and dusted.

You’re having the time of your life right now, where were you when a full strength Indian team got beat 3-2 in their own home to this Australia side?
