Pakistan inflict 111 run defeat on the West Indies in the 1st ODI

This isnt a t20. Bowl with Hasan and Amir. Imad should come to bowl in the middle overs and the final power play
 
How can a spinner bowl inswingers at 100 mph?

He is like Praveen Kumar disguised as a spinner.

Praveen Kumar was a spinner too with a longer run up :))

He used to be a pacer actually. But coaches suggested him to switch to spin.

Should've stuck to becoming a pacer. Could've been a world class pacer allrounder instead which we need more of. Plus, speaks good english :amin
 
7 times Amir has beaten the bat in his 3 overs (my count) . .
 
May be for dew, they are trying to bowl as many overs as possible with spinners early. But, Imad is not a bowler who can get wickets unless batsmen go after him.
 
This is what is soooo frustrating about Azhar Ali's captaincy . . after the first 2 overs, he should have known that Imad is not the answer here right now . . but he goes according to a script . . Imad would be better in the middle overs . .
 
Amir has really deserved this . . he has bowled splendidly!
 
Nice. I think Amir should pitch around the wicket a bit more often. He is at his best when he going for those stumps.
 
Excellent spell from Amir. Get Hasan on to bowl with him. Imad shouldnt open the bowling in ODIs
 
Is azhar even out there? Camera hardly shown him. Feels like Sarfraz is running things

Switched to SAF vs Australia, much more entertaining atm.

QdK the boy wonder. :bow::bow:

Seriously, whenever this guy bats just have to tune in and never disappointed.

Honestly thought SAF would be battered here, but Aussie playing a dummy attack.

Even in bowling SAF selected some quota bowler, and he did surprisingly well.

I remember GR having less posts than me this time last year.

Checked earlier this month and GR now had almost double my posts.
 
6.6 an over for 38 overs on this pitch . . is very very tough
 
Hasan's pace has decreased.With this pace,he will not be effective against decent batsmen.Unlike in PSL,he is no longer nippy.

Actually, there are 4 live matches today, including the night Test, so I took a day off - now watching Ryder cup mostly. This PAK - WI match is as dead as it can be. Once a side has decisive advantage, LO cricket can be most boring.
 
Why has the sweeper gone back? Has there been even one shot that has pierced the field? Why not save the singles instead . . just because the fielding restrictions have ended and its in the script . . the fielder has gone back!

Agree. for UAE ODI games I just watch Pak's batting innings mainly to see if there's improvements, somewhat enjoyable today, and then I completely tune out unless it's some big ODI unit like England or Aus playing.

I quite enjoy SAF games mainly for their batting line-up.
 
Look at these singles from darren bravo through cover point . . whyyyyyy Azhar Ali why?!?!??
