Pakistan down England in thrilling World Cup encounter to end 11-match losing streak

[Hasan123]

No yorker attempts . Pathetic.

 

[imshally81]

Where's reverse swing?

 

[Titan24]

Atleast try to change a field or something to stop singles

 

[Sycamore]

This is like practice for cutting the ball for root today.

 

[shariqnoor]

Sorry bowling as usual from Pakistan. Can't believe they are going to lose from having England at 118/4 chasing 349.

 

[PennOne]

Wahab gives 10 runs off his over. yikes

 

[Strike!]

Bring back Hafeez or Malik!! Do something!

 

[ExpressPacer]

We need one, single wicket here. I say bring on Hafeez! He's having a good day and could trouble Buttler.

 

[Anwar_194]

he doesnt have his stomach sticking out like sarafaraz

 

[Pakistani Pace]

Pathetic bowling

 

[PennOne]

we REALLY need a bowling coach

 

[troodon]

Wahab needs to recreate his dual with Watson on Butler.

 

[Mean&Green]

Not a single Yorker bowled not even the coach going to sidelines to tell them to bowl one pathetic

 

[usmankhanmlg]

Still no slip

10/10 Greatest kaptaan. Way better than overrated Imran Khan.

Had a great time. Would love to see our team giving away matches again.

 

[JellyBro]

Moon sighted in Saudi. Eid mubarak to everyone. Now, if Pak bois would give us an Eid gift that will be great

 

[Khanusman1]

england will win it easily how we are bowling. Where are the damn yorkers? Even bengalis bowled them

But can the Bangla pacers even reach 140?? Our bowlers are fast and furious

 

[Sherazkhalid]

So back to 2 losses in 2 games and back to Imam/Baber strike rates and Baber dropped catch.

 

[PennOne]

Kaptaan is so bewakoof he will give Wahab another over after he got carted for 10

 

[Pakistani Pace]

Root definitely one of the best batsman in the world.

 

[Madplayer]

we REALLY need a bowling coach

How much will the coach change? These bowlers are professionals. Professionally inept.

 

[saeedhk]

Brainless bowlers who can’t think for themselves. They need someone to guide the each delivery.

 

[imshally81]

Oh unlucky again..

 

[Plumb]

103 needed... Pakistan still in game its matter of taking wickets. Comon Guysssssssssssssss

 

[troodon]

Still Moen Ali and Waokes to come in after this two.

 

[AdamM97]

Unlucky Shadab.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Finally a wicket.

 

[mrtaim3]

Outtttttttttttt

 

[ExpressPacer]

THAT OPENS THE FLOOD GATES! Ye cheez!

 

[Madplayer]

Root need butler now and game on

 

[Blistering Barnacle]

Finally.

 

[Plumb]

Goneeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

 

[imshally81]

 

[ExplicitAI]

o balle balle!!!

 

[Green Patriot]

Finally.

Too late?

 

[hussain.r97]

Gone!

 

[Afhan Ali]

A blessing in disguise for England

 

[neonoir]

Don't understand why neither Amir or Wahab have come around the wicket, a change of angle is required.
If nothing is going your way you have to conjure something out of nothing.

 

[troodon]

103 needed... Pakistan still in game its matter of taking wickets. Comon Guysssssssssssssss

Your words came true.

 

[Shafi]

Even if Buttler gets out ENG will this match with no problem. Only way we can win this match by a getting quick 2 wickets.

 

[PennOne]

How much will the coach change? These bowlers are professionals. Professionally inept.

Bowling coaches help a lot. they help with bowlers struggling. Every single pakistan fast bowler has REGRESSED in last 24 months. that does NOT happen unless the coaching is bad

 

[Markhor]

Ooh good bowling

 

[ExpressPacer]

We need to FEAST on the new batsman. Attack him with all that you've got Pakistan!

 

[ManFan]

Root, as expected like Babar, falls immediately after a century.

 

[Mean&Green]

Just like babar and people blame babar

 

[Sunny_majoka]

Selfish inning from root??

 

[babajee]

Yessss. Shady strikes.

 

[JellyBro]

awesome field placement!!!

 

[hussain.r97]

Good over from Shadab. Need some more now!!

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Come on

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Huge. Possibly bring back Malik or hafeez for Moeen?

 

[troodon]

This is the game changing moment.

No Plunkett or Tom Curran today.

 

[Mp812]

If England manage to win it( i sense a collapse)...but if they do manage it...thier confidence for pressure games will soar.

 

[ExplicitAI]

This wicket doesn’t increase our chances of winning that much, buttler is just as dangerous as Glenn maxwell, both these players love playing against Pakistan

 

[Markhor]

Shadab varied his pace well there.

 

[Titan24]

How much will the coach change? These bowlers are professionals. Professionally inept.

Yes Azhar Mehmood should be given life time contract as nobody can make a difference

 

[Chokli]

Still can't believe we never selected proper spinners.

We would have won so many matches that we lost.

 

[Madplayer]

THAT OPENS THE FLOOD GATES! Ye cheez!

Wish so. Need Moin bhai and Rashid bhai too. Hopefully they will remember their ROOTs and go back to them.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Need 2 more quick

 

[Green Patriot]

Root cant finish either

 

[Ronaldo7]

Nice.
But buttler's still there

 

[imshally81]

awesome field placement!!!

Finally... Good captaincy

 

[Plumb]

Told earlier... Need dots dot balls bring wicketssssss

 

[nitrous]

dude is bowling short and wide... getting lucky so far

And gone!!!!

 

[jnaveen1980]

Pakistan is staging a come back.

 

[Hasan123]

Put the pressure on Moen to force Buttler into a mistake.

 

[Anwar_194]

Out

 

[Nado_]

Moeen out of form?

 

[Pakistani Pace]

Outttt! Shadabb

 

[Markhor]

Would bring Wahab on against Moeen and pepper him with short deliveries.

He struggled massively in Australia and West Indies against short pitched bowling.

 

[hussain.r97]

Good comeback from Shadab, shows that he can handle the pressure.

 

[adil79]

Ok, we are in the game. Thanks to shadab. But we need to bowl wide yorkers, precise yorkers if we want to have chance here

 

[Madplayer]

Yes Azhar Mehmood should be given life time contract as nobody can make a difference

Ofcourse not. I am saying replace the coach and the bowlers.

 

[Sirris]

Stand up guys, give it your best

never give up

 

[zn426]

Yay for the wicket that came like 90 runs too late.

Even so I screamed a bit. Still England on top here. Need a quick run of wickets to keep it alive.

 

[dhump]

Butler is the danger man here, but a good wicket game is still in favor of England.

 

[Plumb]

Wahab to unleash himself on Moin with BOUNCERSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

 

[AdamM97]

If this was Babar. Pakistani fans would cry that Babar was only playing for his century and how selfish he is.

 

[neonoir]

Moeen Ali to go next

 

[Mueez]

Root bye.

 

[dhump]

Moeen out of form?

He just needs to support Butler.
