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

[Asif321]

Wahab pumped up

 

[Ronaldo7]

Game over for England !!

Too early mate.

 

[hussain.r97]

Wahab needs to get rid of the 1-2 bad balls per over.

 

[Invincible Gujjar]

Shaaba gujjar keep it up.Come on haters buraaaaaaaaaaaaahhhb

 

[Plumb]

England should have been three down and dead by now.

Only if we field well... Comon Amir get one more

 

[Mueez]

Wahab is love yaarrrr

[jnaveen1980]

500 runs anybody? lol

 

[Madplayer]

You do realize I was not comparing Hafeez to anyone? Anywhere in my statement dis I say Hafeez is just as god as these players? You are the one who is bashing Hafeez today for playing a match winning innings, and you say that his innings today was not clutch because he was dropped. By your logic hundreds of innings that are match winning or clutch become useless. So just think before you speak next time, and maybe read posts fully next time too.

Gosh, relax. I didnt call his innings today as "not clutch". I just meant that he is not a clutch player in general like a dhoni or a bevan. These innings, although clutch individually, are very few to call hafeez a clutch player. He has not played such innings consistently.

 

[Khan12]

Well done Wahab.

 

[Titan24]

Lol! some posters Wahab bowled 2 overs for 15 where team is chasing 349 and now has taken a wicket as well

 

[Asif321]

Cornered tigers have stand up today

 

[hussain.r97]

Amir deserves a wicket, has bowled so well.

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

Wow Wahab and Sarfaraz pumped up

 

[QalandarFan]

Man just I have to leave I check cricinfo and Wahab gets a wicket. Hopefully when I check up at lunch we have this one put away! Let’s go Pakistan!

 

[Dios]

Still no hundreds in this World Cup. Amazing.

 

[pakistanisgreat]

Common

 

[Hasan123]

Amir to Morgan. Get 2 slips in now.

 

[zn426]

Hahahahaha Wahab you legend. If only Babar hadn't dropped Root.

 

[Ilan Bluestone]

It would be hilarious to be whitewashed in a 5 match ODI series, only to beat them in the WC opener lol

 

[Mueez]

Early days but Pakistan is ready for the WC.

Lets get it home.

 

[Sirris]

Love the reaction of Pakistan fans here. Once minute they are sledging Wahab and now joyous after he removes JB

Can't love what's to be hated and can't hate what's to be loved

 

[Sherazkhalid]

Pressure getting to Root. Worst swing than Fakhar swings.

 

[K4Kohli]

Supporting Pakistan Today vs England. Go Pakistan

 

[style_guru]

England's never ending batting will be seriously tested today

 

[hur rizvi]

88 mph

Amir fired up

 

[Usman Chadda]

Sarfraz is so pumped today. Love it

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

Haha. He was bowling poor.

I always give credit where it is due.

His problem has always been consistency and focus. He can't bowl one good ball and then 5 terrible ones.

He wasn't really, a couple of bad balls but also some beauties in there.

 

[Asif321]

Babar has been disastrous on field

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

See this is what Pakistan is capable of. Now we will see completely different threads compared to the threads after first game.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Too early mate.

Don't you see a nervous enregy when they are not able to throw their bat around gay abandon? THey are forced to play with circumspection. Don't know how to play. They are in two minds each ball. Great line and length bowling from Amir is making it even harder.

 

[Hasan123]

2 slips are needed here.

 

[Ronaldo7]

142. Amir is pumped.
Crowd involvement is really important.

 

[Rightarmfast]

Aaj Khush to bahot hoge aaplog!

 

[QalandarFan]

Thanks guys.
Really disappointed. 2 down would have been great.
Hope its not costly.

Your wish is Wahab’s command!

 

[SensiblePakFan]

Fired up

 

[Plumb]

Amir to Morgan. Get 2 slips in now.

Yup need 2 slips

 

[Mueez]

This is the Sarfraz we love.

We need him back.

Sarfii dhoka nahi deta

 

[Nado_]

When Wahab hits that length he’s a wicket taker.

 

[style_guru]

This pitch is two paced now. Pakistan's match to lose this

 

[Ronaldo7]

Eng are just under pressure. That's why i rate aus a lot more. They just don't take pressure.

 

[Ilan Bluestone]

Amir putting a lot of pressure on them.

 

[Asif321]

Hafeez should bowl 7 atleast

 

[Usman Chadda]

Amir deserves a wicket. This guy deserves all the luck he can get. Has bowled his heart out here.

 

[hadi123]

We really need to get Root. Don't want the drop costing us. "What if's" are the worst feeling

 

[volcyz]

England under the severe pump

 

[Markhor]

Riveting stuff.

World Cup coming alive.

 

[MRSN]

Sarfraz is so pumped today. Love it

Your tv only shows Sarfraz?

 

[Hasan123]

Amir and Wahab are thriving under the pressure.

 

[Titan24]

You know cricket has decent future when minnows like Pakistan are giving decent competition to Eng

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

So many inside edges survived.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Your tv only shows Sarfraz?

You missed out the Wahab smiley in the end deliberately, didn't you?

 

[Ilan Bluestone]

Spell from Amir has been key to the start.

 

[Asif321]

If Pakistan beat England
Then Pakistan are favourites ?

 

[hur rizvi]

Time to string dot balls

 

[volcyz]

How are these edges missing the stumps????!!!

 

[JibranAnsari]

Hasan alis spell will be the key , he should bowl full.

 

[Sirris]

England's kit is making me feel like we are playing against India

 

[ARK Rafay]

It would be hilarious to be whitewashed in a 5 match ODI series, only to beat them in the WC opener lol

I reckon every fan will take that

 

[Hasan123]

Amir deserves a wicket. This guy deserves all the luck he can get. Has bowled his heart out here.

Agreed. Had that catch been taken he would have run through Poms.

 

[hur rizvi]

Excellent from Amir

 

[jnaveen1980]

Even Morgan looks fidgety. This si not going to end well for England. Butler is also not a great guy under pressure.

 

[Red Devil]

Amir looks in the groove mA. Great to see.

 

[Ronaldo7]

If Pakistan beat England
Then Pakistan are favourites ?

Don't think that's how it works.

 

[Mueez]

Waqar motivated Amir today.


Thanks to our legend!

 

[hussain.r97]

Hasan alis spell will be the key , he should bowl full.

Should attack the stumps. Top of off, with the odd fuller one.

 

[Asif321]

Wahab will do something special I have feeling

 

[RamLakhan]

Now Wahab will be a great bowler: Pakistani fans

It is the main Cricket Forum for Pakistan and considerably there should be some mass fans (who go to extremes of Praise & Criticism!) We can find such things in India also if you visit the Indian forums! I have not seen some of these fans/members in our serious cricket discussions here!

 

[x_KINGKHAN_x]

Amir looks pumped

 

[Hasan123]

Liked the thinking from Sarfraz there.

 

[QalandarFan]

Waqar motivated Amir today.


Thanks to our legend!

What he do?

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

I reckon every fan will take that

Hated that rona dhona by Pakistani fans here over a bilateral series.

 

[Mueez]

What he do?

He talked with him and told him he is a wicket taker etc.

 

[Asif321]

Only if root was caught would have been amazing

 

[hur rizvi]

Bouncer barrage for morgan

 

[Hasan123]

Even Morgan looks fidgety. This si not going to end well for England. Butler is also not a great guy under pressure.

We have choked under pressure as well. Just let things play out before talking about choking.

 

[Green Patriot]

Your wish is Wahab’s command!

Lol.10 down is my wish then

 

[Hasan123]

Wahab could cause issues to Moen and lower order.

 

[Kroll]

Need that slow Shoaib Akhtar style clap from the Pak fans when Waby runs in.

 

[JibranAnsari]

I want to read a yorker on cricinfo commentary
