Pakistan Cup 2016 : Balochistan beat Punjab by 12 runs [PICTURES]

anyone else noticed the bat off Salman Butt? looks like he is using an outdated bat back from 90s?
 
Maybe, we should add international stars to our domestic side. Maybe, we will have a more entertaining match.

When u unnecessary cautious, this happen
 
This 80s brand of cricket is proving very hard to get rid off.

Other teams are aiming for 60-70 off the first 10 minimum and we are happy with 30-40..

Nothing will change unless there is shift in thought process (captains and coaches) at domestic level and in these type of tournaments.
 
Shafiq has played 6 dots on the trot. I do not understand this love for dead batting every ball
 
Nothing wrong with the pitch; just downright poor batting


May be, as I said, I am not watching.

However, you can notice it in Butt's dismissal - Butt is a wristy player, tried to flick a middle-leg pitched up ball (A poor ball - on good wicket Virat 'll beat 4 men leg- cordon 9 times out of 10 on good batting wickets) & he lobbed it back to bowler & that too against new ball, which is supposed to skid. This happens when the wicket is sluggish, abrupt & top surface is soft on a loose base. You can't use the pace of the wicket, neither can hit through the line. These type of wicket 'll produce either bottom hand sloggers or low back-lift stone wallers. I am not surprised that Fawad, Farhat, Misbah, KAkmal, Awais ...... are the news makers in PAK domestic style.
 
Mashallah Shafiq 10 dots on the trot. Blistering batting
 
why so much tuk tuk??????????????????????????????????????????????????????

When your top 3 are all pathetic batsman vouching for a place in the national side you get these kinds of selfish innings
 
All jobbers.

Same stone age batting.

Throwing away starts, no strike rotation, etc etc

Even the so called tailunts are fish out of water here.

Zero improvement, don't think we're going to get any better in LOs. Fact that hacks and tailunts alike are batting the same way shows it doesn't matter who gets selected, all are duds and will get exposed in internationals.

Looks like we will be ranked 8 for a very long time.
 
and this is why we shouldn't be looking at has-been players like Butt who can't play modern cricket.
 
So after 15 dot balls Shafiq finally manages to get a single
 
3 runs of that over, has to be the best over of the innings
 
I pity on those who went on ground to see this kind of pathetic cricket.

What a shame!
 
Sorry but what kind of joke top order is Punjab playing??

3 SR 70 batsmen in the top 3.

Inzi must be shaking his head like, damn this was a mistake.

Inzi must be feeling like jaldi se jitnay paisay bunanay hain bunao aur phir niklooooo :ibutt
 
Also I don't know why Hafeez didn't open the batting with Azhar last game, why does he think he's our best batsman? Even if he is though, he should let Babar (our future) have that position. Umar Akmal got a start too, same with Yousuf but none capitalised sadly.
 
Asad gets another single in quick succession.. seems like Asad is in a hurry :))
 
How did amad butt bowled? Is he international quality or just mediocre??
 
Next PAK coach should put a clause that, if he resigns for incompetence of PCB, he should be paid for full terms of his contract. No Coach, no selector can pick a team for English tour based on this state of the art Pakistan Cup. This is beyond pathetic - in 4 overs, Gul has given the amount run he 'll concede in a single over in ODI & if Motta picks him for English tour, we'll curse him first & then 'll curse the next Coach for not finding a John Snow out of Umer Gul in English condition.

Really, really depressed with the playing condition here - literally anyone batting below 4 has very little chance to show their batting skills; therefore selectors 'll pick all the players from top 4 & then expect them to deliver a Mike Hussey, MS Dhoni or Mike Bevan from 7 against International attack & fielding.
 
honestly i will kill that poster who ever write give Butt,Shafiq,Shan a chance in ODI.completely unfit for ODI

I dunno, man. I think some of the pitches in the WT20, like the one in Kolkata for the Pak-Ind game looked more sluggish than this. Akmal showed in his short stint that there are no demons on the surface.
 
Can someone remind them that this is an ODI match, not a Test match? Thanks
 
For God's sake Rizwan play like you do in T20 and chase down this mickey mouse total.
