Pakistan defeat South Africa in 3rd T20I by 27 runs to finish tour with consolation victory

[a_tahir]

High hopes for Shaheen to win the next emerging cricketer award.

He can't.
He will not be eligible.
He'll be past the requirements

 

[Syed1]

Imad to bowl out... good move. Get the RR as high as possible.

 

[Rana]

Malik is learning captaincy during this series. Well done for keeping Imad on for his 4 over spell

 

[Slim]

Stump mic is turnt.

 

[Syed1]

Good changes of pace from Shaheen.

Imagine if there was no PSL, poor Shaheen would be breaking his back in domestics because Inzi wouldn't even know of his existence.

 

[MMHS]

Imad is turning to be a champion T20 cricketer - probably would have been one of the highest paid IPL PAK player. First restored the momentum with bat and now has almost won the game within Power Play. May be a shout for future Captaincy in T20, but Sarfraz probably is going to stand till 2020 WC at least - they should immediately appoint Imad as deputy and rest Sarfraz in between to promote a back-up WK (Umar, may be, or a new kid - Rizwan won't work in T20s).

 

[Madplayer]

Gotta give it to imad. What a bowler in power plays.

 

[Slim]

He can't.
He will not be eligible.
He'll be past the requirements

What are the requirements?

 

[Rana]

Imad scary bowler to feild against

 

[Ozymandiasza]

Imad shouting constantly...

 

[Slim]

Imagine if there was no PSL, poor Shaheen would be breaking his back in domestics because Inzi wouldn't even know of his existence.

We are honestly blessed to have Shaheen popping out of nowhere. Our bowling looks dire without him.

 

[imshally81]

Great spell by Imad...

 

[Syed1]

4-0-19-1 in the power plays is GOAT level bowling

 

[Plumb]

Imad should open in ODIs comon now...

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Just need to keep it tight in the middle overs too.

Amir, Shadab and Faheem especially.

 

[Justcrazy]

Imad finishes with 1 for 19 from 4 overs , very good bowling

 

[Mueez]

Amir and Shadab need to bowl now.

 

[imshally81]

 

[a_tahir]

What are the requirements?

No more than 5 tests or 10 odis before the award giving ceremony

 

[Syed1]

We are honestly blessed to have Shaheen popping out of nowhere. Our bowling looks dire without him.

Bhai talent is there... its just that chief selector is pathetic.

 

[Slim]

Well done Amir. The choke works, props to imad too.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Amir gets Shaheens wicket first ball

Shaheen deserved this as he had Klaasen in all that pressure

 

[imshally81]

Amir took the wicket on his first ball..

 

[Madplayer]

30-3 Klaasen gone. Need Van dussen here. And miller too.

 

[Mueez]

Amir strikesss!

 

[Green Patriot]

Pressure getting to them.

 

[Ozymandiasza]

At least make 120.

 

[Slim]

No more than 5 tests or 10 odis before the award giving ceremony

Thats stupid, should be based on age..

 

[Justcrazy]

three down

 

[Rana]

Klaasen....is he playing IPL this year?

 

[Madplayer]

It was a slower ball

 

[Pete Rose]

the wicketkeepers in this game have similar batting pedigree.

 

[Syed1]

Well well well what do we have here... the prodigal son returns



Now imagine Shi!wari bowling here... SAF would be 75/1.

 

[Plumb]

picking wrong players for wrong format is a big issue. if you play t20 players in test that's what you get 0-3

 

[MMHS]

Since they gave Imam MoS in ODI despite PAK losing, I do feel Imad should receive here - he had 4-1-9-1 in last game bowling in PP out of a score of 188-3 (& losing by 7 runs), and today this; batted well also. A misfit in this team, and instead of Asif Buttler, had PAK sent Imad at 4 in 2nd game, this series would have been active still.

 

[a_tahir]

We are honestly blessed to have Shaheen popping out of nowhere. Our bowling looks dire without him.

Wouldn't say out of nowhere because he had been performing in the u19 CWC and the domestic. I knew about him before his selection for the psl.
But yeah the psl gave him a big boost

 

[Green Patriot]

Don't let Miller settle.

 

[a_tahir]

Thats stupid, should be based on age..

Age needs to be under 26

 

[Ozymandiasza]

Prediction: Captain's innings from Miller.

 

[Plumb]

Don't let Miller settle.

Lets see how Amir uses his experience here...

 

[Rana]

Imad deserves full credit for that wicket

 

[Syed1]

Prediction: Captain's innings from Miller.

Well Misbah was a captain too.... I hope he plays Misbah-like captain's innings

 

[Madplayer]

Don't let Miller settle.

Next over should be given to Shadab. Ball is getting wet as well. It will be difficult for him later

 

[Mueez]

I hope to see Shinwari never again in the team.

Guy is even worser than Wahab.

 

[Green Patriot]

Lets see how Amir uses his experience here...

Oops.
Come on Amir.

 

[Slim]

Pakistan playing like the number 1 T20I now that they have their actual bowlers playing in the playing 11.

 

[Ahmed216]

No problem with the ball there. Just a special shot by miller

 

[Rana]

Game on, Miller looking in the mood

 

[Ozymandiasza]

Well Misbah was a captain too.... I hope he plays Misbah-like captain's innings

)

Ja ja, Miller is a killer though

 

[Madplayer]

Well Misbah was a captain too.... I hope he plays Misbah-like captain's innings

Shame he missed the opportunity to play an Afridi like captain's innings 0(1) or 6(2).

 

[Green Patriot]

Next over should be given to Shadab. Ball is getting wet as well. It will be difficult for him later

I think it will be him.
Spinner and pacer in tandem.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Prediction: Captain's innings from Miller.

Not watching is it good for batting? Looks like they are way behind the asking rate

 

[Justcrazy]

Miller needs to fire here , if SA has to have a chance

 

[rhony]

Choke job is ON. Pak's game to lose from here

 

[Ozymandiasza]

Not watching is it good for batting? Looks like they are way behind the asking rate

The commies predicted a high scoring game. Our batting has been **** poor.

 

[Madplayer]

30 in 7 overs. And then Amir comes in an gives away 10 runs.

 

[rhony]

Miller needs to fire here , if SA has to have a chance

He's got to score close to a hundred here if SA has to win. Pak's game Im sure

 

[Rana]

Crunched by Killer Miller

 

[Syed1]

30 in 7 overs. And then Amir comes in an gives away 10 runs.

8 off them from Miller who came in BECAUSE AMIR PICKED A WICKET

 

[rhony]

Not watching is it good for batting? Looks like they are way behind the asking rate

Batting wicket still. Great bowling so far

 

[Madplayer]

8 off them from Miller who came in BECAUSE AMIR PICKED A WICKET

Fluke wicket : mamoon

 

[Slim]

Dussen has been lucky.

 

[Rana]

Shady come on boy

 

[Mueez]

Need to get Miller.

Amir needs to bowl a yorker and he will be a goner.

 

[GoUgandaCranes]

[MENTION=133726]GoUgandaCranes[/MENTION]

I'm glad you see "it" in Andile as well. He's one of my favourites in the current SA squad.

He's the kinda spunky cricketers that I've always rooted for no matter what team they play for.

 

[Green Patriot]

They want to unsettle Shady.
Try and bat him out of the attack.

 

[Mueez]

Fluke wicket moon

“Champions Throphy aik tuka tha..”

 

[Madplayer]

Shadab seriously needs to work on his length.

 

[Justcrazy]

Good hit , just what the doctor ordered for SA

 

[Rana]

Tough tour for Shaddy

 

[rhony]

Need one of these gone soon. Phlukewayo is next up

 

[Ozymandiasza]

Clutch and Killer doing well.

 

[imshally81]

21/1 in last 2 overs

 

[Rana]

Nice and flat. Good get out of jail ball

 

[Syed1]

Fluke wicket : mamoon

The results in this T20 series prove, CT was a fluke - Mamoon

 

[rhony]

Clutch and Killer doing well.

Man what a find Van Dussen is for SA. Hes clutch. He's almost Australian like

 

[Green Patriot]

Afridi's fielding is comical

 

[Rana]

123 kmh by Amir lol

 

[Ozymandiasza]

Man what a find Van Dussen is for SA. Hes clutch. He's almost Australian like

Already has the high score of this match

Yeah, what a find.

 

[Madplayer]

Afridi's fielding is comical

Think there is a lot of dew out there.
