Pakistan v Afghanistan | Match 36, World Cup | Leeds | 29th June, 2019 | Afghanistan innings

[Green Patriot]

Thank God its not Ikram

 

[Titan24]

Asghar Afghan lost the battle against Shadab

 

[Stewie]

Well bowled Shadab!!!

 

[Asif321]

Should make them collapse and high our NRR

 

[saeed5646]

But he is "street smart" cricketer.

Pakistan is caught off guard .Seems they only prepare well when given good 3 to 4 day rest

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

270-280 at least

170 - 180 is their limit against Pakistani bowlers

 

[Rifaqat]

Afghan has ruined his hard work

 

[shah_1]

Nabi is the key

 

[Mujtaba2900]

Why is sarfraz always looking to Bowl 50 overs instead of bowling Team out.
Nice Example would Be Kohli Captaincy against West Indies and Finch Who always bring baxk Cummins or Starc At any stage of The game.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Nabi and Najibullah left

 

[pakistanisgreat]

Finally sign of relief

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

How many balls will this Smug Nabi last ? 1 or 2 balls

 

[MMHS]

Time to regroup and focus - Afghans won’t last 50 overs.... and hope now Sarfraz doesn’t bring Haris & Fakhar to preserve better overs for end game.

 

[saeed5646]

Asghar Afghan lost the battle against Shadab

There was no battle have sarfraz kept first slip on very first ball for shadab

 

[BleedGreen]

Turning now. Shaba shadab

 

[UP]

Badly needed that wicket.

 

[Fahdi]

Shadab continues to take the crucial wicket: Williamson, Root, Roy, QDK, Van der Dussen and now Afghan.

 

[JibranAnsari]

rashid will be very hard to tackle on this pitch.

 

[Markhor]

Keep attacking now Sarfraz.

 

[BleedGreen]

2-3 wickets keep them under 200

 

[Green Patriot]

Wicket turning.
Bad news.

 

[pakistanisgreat]

Need to put pressure here

 

[AdamM97]

Can Pakistan restrict the Afghans to less than 200?

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

There was no battle have sarfraz keep first slip on very first ball for shadab

It was never a first slip catch. Uff hai yar.

You are better than this, doing what the suspects do all the time.

 

[Ronaldo7]

No.
Not him

 

[Mueez]

Let me remind you all:

Ian Bishop said the pitch will spin in the first innings and not in the second innings.

 

[BleedGreen]

Reviewed

 

[castortroy]

Poor review

 

[Madplayer]

How can you review this you idiots

 

[Invincible Gujjar]

This pathetic captain is really awful.He doesn't know when to change bowlers doesn't set good field.Rubbish captain

 

[pakistanisgreat]

Review time

 

[Asif321]

Review

 

[saeed5646]

Shadab continues to take the crucial wicket: Williamson, Root, Roy, QDK, Van der Dussen and now Afghan.

Hopefully it doesn't get unnoticed

 

[Ronaldo7]

Bad review

 

[mrtaim3]

This is what afghans lack, patience. They are immature. Cannot use their brain. I've played against afghanis a lot during my school and college days in Karachi. They were way too good. The bowlers used to be pretty fast and batsman were big hitters. They always lost because of their immature mentality and lack of patience. Our match mostly end up in a fight due to them being crying everytime

 

[Adnan_Ilyas]

thank god its not ikram:d

so true

 

[castortroy]

Might not be a bad review

 

[AdamM97]

Funny how PP folks were all over Shadab’s throat during that partnership and now Shadab picked a wicket. Seems like we’re a bunch of impatient bunch that panic everytime a partnership builds up.

 

[BleedGreen]

Damn! Umpires call. Review retained though

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Umpire’s call what a joke

 

[Asif321]

Gosh so close

 

[Madplayer]

Was closer than what we thought

 

[MRSN]

Turning now. Shaba shadab

Yeah. He does turn them once in a while even on rank turners. Don't rate this show off after seeing how he was schooled by Santner of all spinners and Williamson.

 

[shah_1]

Not out

Good review

 

[pakistanisgreat]

Shouldn't have reviewed it was ikram anyway....did we loss the review?

 

[member250]

wow, should have been given out

 

[Rifaqat]

Not a good review. Thanks Shadab!

 

[Ronaldo7]

Shouldn't have reviewed it was ikram anyway....did we loss the review?

No.

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Don’t get him out, he needs to stay for Pakistan

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

How can you review this you idiots

Whats wrong in the review?

 

[Mueez]

It was actually out.

What the ef is this umpire calls.

 

[Markhor]

This is what afghans lack, patience. They are immature. Cannot use their brain. I've played against afghanis a lot during my school and college days in Karachi. They were way too good. The bowlers used to be pretty fast and batsman were big hitters. They always lost because of their immature mentality and lack of patience.

Speaking of fighting - according to Saj there is some aggro in the stands with a few fans being thrown out.

 

[BleedGreen]

Ikram 24 off 63

 

[AdamM97]

Not a good review. Thanks Shadab!

Wicket retained.

 

[cricketfan11]

Pakistan have given too many needless runs.
Poor captaincy and nothing great about bowling.
On this track there is zero margin of error.
If Afg score 200 pressure will again be on Pakistan and are we going to see a close finish again!
This is the type of wicket where either batsmen need to play a silly shot (Afghan) or you have to produce an exceptional ball.

 

[mrtaim3]

That should have been hitting and not umpire's call. Dont understand how it was umpire's call

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

Funny how PP folks were all over Shadab’s throat during that partnership and now Shadab picked a wicket. Seems like we’re a bunch of impatient bunch that panic everytime a partnership builds up.

Like bunch of kiddos here. No patience and then they expect the team to be patient.

 

[pakistanisgreat]

Need to check the single

 

[786pk]

Let me remind you all:

Ian Bishop said the pitch will spin in the first innings and not in the second innings.

How does that work, surely the pitch will dry out further as the day goes on

 

[Madplayer]

Whats wrong in the review?

I thought he came too far down the track for that to be given out. Remember that "more than 2.5 metre distance" rule?

 

[Titan24]

Shadab needs to use his googly a bit as well, early in his career he was over doing it but I think now he is completely taking it out of plans more often than not by the looks of it.

 

[MRSN]

Funny how PP folks were all over Shadab’s throat during that partnership and now Shadab picked a wicket. Seems like we’re a bunch of impatient bunch that panic everytime a partnership builds up.

That wicket has more to do with impatience of Afghan batter. There was nothing in the ball. Criticism on Shadab is valid for not turning thr ball where even part timers become unplayable. He is average spinner at best and that's a fact

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Speaking of fighting - according to Saj there is some aggro in the stands with a few fans being thrown out.

Wow brother, never expected this. Like an actual fist fight

 

[JibranAnsari]

afghans cant be taed by spin , they play a lot of good spin bowling.

Sarfrazs is missing the trick here.

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

Reading this thread it seems like Afghanis are 223-4 in 26 overs. So much negativity and impatience. Jeez.

 

[member250]

How does that work, surely the pitch will dry out further as the day goes on

It will get better to bat on as day go by because of sun.

 

[Titan24]

I thought he came too far down the track for that to be given out. Remember that "more than 2.5 metre distance" rule?

He wasnt out of the crease more than 2.5 m.

 

[pakistanisgreat]

Captain didn't see the ball

 

[Madplayer]

Sarfaraz is sleeping what the hell

 

[BleedGreen]

Ikram goes

 

[Mueez]

Kasam se.

Ach bhai tek hai

 

[shah_1]

OUT

good innings for Pakistan

 

[MRSN]

Lol @ Sarfraz's fitness. That catch dropped dropped right under his nose and he was sleeping

 

[shariqnoor]

Some strange captaincy by Sarfraz. Nabi comes and he's operating with Imad. Sarfraz is always thinking of bowling 50 overs rather than attacking new batsmen with your best bowlers. Get Amir or Shaheen back.

 

[JibranAnsari]

great knock comes to an end.

 

[member250]

damn Ikram out

 

[pakistanisgreat]

Outtt

 

[Madplayer]

[JellyBro]

Ikram looks like Hasan ali with the helmet
