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

[Ronaldo7]

Noooooo

We needed him to stay

 

[BleedGreen]

Imad whispers “f off”

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

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 was never out more than 2.5 meter it was there to see.

 

[Asif321]

Maddy gets

 

[Titan24]

A poor innings from Ikram comes to an end

 

[kingusama92]

One of the worst innings of all time comes to an end.

 

[pakistanisgreat]

Big blow to Pakistan since ikram gone.

 

[Mueez]

Surely 125/5 isn’t bad.

Why are we whining, can we stop this rona dhona?

 

[Mean&Green]

Why the hell would you get him out

 

[QalandarFan]

Innings of the tourney by this dude.

 

[Madplayer]

He wasnt out of the crease more than 2.5 m.

Yes i was mistaken. He has tiny legs.

 

[shariqnoor]

And imad takes a wicket. Now please get Amir and Shaheen back on and finish them right now.

 

[ScotRaz]

Baba Hafeez our Gun fielder takes the catch

 

[AdamM97]

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

Fair enough, maybe Shadab deserved some criticism there. But i’ve seen this happen too often where PP folks expect Pakistan to pick up a wicket every 2-3 overs.

And on that note: a wicket

 

[GLORY OF '92]

This is the key partnership now

 

[Ronaldo7]

Surely 125/5 isn’t bad.

Why are we whining, can we stop this rona dhona?

According to Google, we have a 89% of chance of winning but still people here are whining.

 

[Madplayer]

He was never out more than 2.5 meter it was there to see.

I misjudged bhai. Can a guy not make a mistake?

 

[member250]

Doubt afghanis will get over 200 now.

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

Ach bhai tek hai ��

Haha good boy Kuch he to reasonable log rh gaye hain yahan wrna baqi sab impatient lot hai.

 

[imshally81]

Finally imad took the wicket

 

[QalandarFan]

Surely 125/5 isn’t bad.

Why are we whining, can we stop this rona dhona?

These are the same people were acting like Nz scored 400 when they only got to 230 last match.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Pathetic knock by ikram caused both wickets lol.

 

[AdamM97]

Imad’s Afghan ex won’t be too happy with him here.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

One of the worst innings of all time comes to an end.

This one or Mendis Yday?

 

[Markhor]

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.

This is a dry, turning wicket and Shadab is going at 5 rpo, bowling full tosses and giving easy singles. You'd expect your "lead" spinner to have more control than that.

 

[pakistani pride]

Bring the pacers on and go for the KILL. Dont worry about the runs leaking het them AO.

 

[Mueez]

According to Google, we have a 89% of chance of winning but still people here are whining.

Even Google knows.

 

[786pk]

Hearing that a Pakistani fan was beaten by a group of Afghani outside the stadium

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

I misjudged bhai. Can a guy not make a mistake?

Haha bhai maine kia kaha apko
You said they were idiots not mee.

 

[pakistanisgreat]

One run out is on card

 

[MRSN]

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

This pitch will turn massively later on and anything over 200 becomes good total. I think you have been sleeping through this wc. Totals have been low and have been defended very well by good spin sides.

 

[Mueez]

Imad’s Afghan ex won’t be too happy with him here.

Kafi logon ke shadab sa bi jalte hai pat nhe q

 

[AdamM97]

Hearing that a Pakistani fan was beaten by a group of Afghani outside the stadium

I fail to understand why some Pakistanis love Afghans when rhey clearly hate us.

 

[cricketfan11]

I don't think there has been anything great about Imad in this match.
The batsmen have just played nothing shots on his bowling.
If it was Indian or England batsmen against him he would have probably bowled 2 overs max on this type of pitch

 

[member250]

*** Fakhar

 

[Mueez]

These are the same people were acting like Nz scored 400 when they only got to 230 last match.

Pessimism all over the place.

 

[mrtaim3]

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

Afghanis are usually very aggressive

 

[shah_1]

According to Saj on twitter

Fight is going on between Afghanis and Pakistani fans

 

[Madplayer]

Haha bhai maine kia kaha apko
You said they were idiots not mee.

My mistake.

 

[UP]

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.

Opinions change here after every over or perhaps after every delivery.

 

[saeed5646]

Get them before 180

 

[uberkoen]

Oh come on, good spinners should be running through sides, on these wickets. He could not bowl 5 overs on rank turner the other day, the most useless spinner in entire WC

Do you really need to choke opposition, when they are two down inside 6 overs? IICRC, Imad hasn’t taken a wicket in this WC, when wickets are quite helpful to spinners. PAK is simply allowing to drift the game away - NRR could be an issue at the end and I am sure better idea was to play Hasnain & target Afghan helmet - has PCT tank noticed AFG batting against short ball?

Well well well...

 

[pakistanisgreat]

We missed few run out chances today

 

[pakpassfan]

Pak got this..every one is worried for nothing..minnow number 1 is going down today..number 2 is coming next match

 

[Mueez]

According to Saj on twitter

Fight is going on between Afghanis and Pakistani fans

Bunch of sore losers.

We have an intense rivalry with India.

Never seen them behaving like this.

Don’t know why Afghanis hate Pakistan so much?

 

[JellyBro]

Fakhar Is so bad In the field

 

[Mean&Green]

Wth is up with fakhar he did some sick run outs in uae now he can’t field for his life

 

[Madplayer]

According to Saj on twitter

Fight is going on between Afghanis and Pakistani fans

I wonder who started it. Surely Afghans cannot overpower Pakistanis in a stadium filled with 80% Pakistan fans.

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

My mistake.

love <3 ho bhai ap.

never mind

 

[Mamoon]

Fakhar has been a disgrace in this World Cup. Thankfully the stupid idea of making him captain will not gain steam now.

 

[pakistanisgreat]

Looks like it was edge

 

[WC-Passion]

I totally forgot we still had the review because of Umpire's Call.

 

[Madplayer]

This Nigel long should take a long walk back to his home. He never gives decisions in favour of Pakistan.

 

[amirm]

Fakhar 200 on the cards today inshallah

 

[Ronaldo7]

Bunch of sore losers.

We have an intense rivalry with India.

Never seen them behaving like this.

Don’t know why Afghanis hate Pakistan so much?

Indians are not aggressive. They can verbally abuse you but they never try to physically attack you.

 

[Madplayer]

love <3 ho bhai ap.

never mind

inko out karo yaar jaldi se

 

[Hasan123]

This is the chance to finish the innings off quickly.

 

[mrtaim3]

He was never out more than 2.5 meter it was there to see.

It hit the back leg so there was no case of 2.5 meters.

 

[BleedGreen]

Afridi chants for Shaheen

 

[AdamM97]

I wonder who started it. Surely Afghans cannot overpower Pakistanis in a stadium filled with 80% Pakistan fans.

from what i’ve heard, one Pakistani was beaten up by a few Afghans.

 

[pakistanisgreat]

Poor bowling by giving wides

 

[Ronaldo7]

from what i’ve heard, one Pakistani was beaten up by a few Afghans.

Outside the ground though.

 

[AdamM97]

The only people that deserve to be angry at Pakistan is Bangladeshis and even they seem to treat us well. These Afghans are ah ungrateful bunch.

 

[Markhor]

According to Saj on twitter

Fight is going on between Afghanis and Pakistani fans

Afghanis are usually very aggressive

Hearing that a Pakistani fan was beaten by a group of Afghani outside the stadium

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

Yeah there's some videos on Twitter showing scuffling.

 

[MRSN]

Fair enough, maybe Shadab deserved some criticism there. But i’ve seen this happen too often where PP folks expect Pakistan to pick up a wicket every 2-3 overs.

And on that note: a wicket

Wicket is not an issue but lack of common sense bowling. Look at Chahal and look at his bowling. There is hardly any flight or turn in Shadab bowling. He keeps bowling faster and fuller. There arr fundamental problems with our spin if they don't even turn thr ball here. Thank god Afghan are mediocre batsmen otherwise 110+ after 22 overs on this pitch with just 3 wickets lost could have been disastrous.

 

[castortroy]

Very average bowling by Afridi

 

[Mueez]

Indians are not aggressive. They can verbally abuse you but they never try to physically attack you.

I find Indians much better than Afghanis.

 

[m.shah]

Why Afghanistanis hate pak so much? I always thought they have a good relation.

 

[saeed5646]

Yeah there's some videos on Twitter showing scuffling.

Omg this is pathetic

 

[ScotRaz]

Yeah there's some videos on Twitter showing scuffling.

Videos of the scuffles on another thread. Embarrassing no matter who started it.

 

[BleedGreen]

2 more wickets to keep them under 200

 

[Mueez]

The only people that deserve to be angry at Pakistan is Bangladeshis and even they seem to treat us well. These Afghans are ah ungrateful bunch.

Exactly.

“Namak haraam qoam.”

 

[Ronaldo7]

The only people that deserve to be angry at Pakistan is Bangladeshis and even they seem to treat us well. These Afghans are ah ungrateful bunch.

Exactly. I was so surprised to see Bangladeshi fans supporting us vs India in the Asia cup 2014. I was actually surprised.

 

[PakPremi]

So much crying in this thread when Pak are well on top and bowlers are bowling good . Two good reviews also taken by captain. Remember this Afghan team restricted India to 224.

 

[Titan24]

Fakhar has been a disgrace in this World Cup. Thankfully the stupid idea of making him captain will not gain steam now.

In my opinion Babar has proved enough to be the future captain, i guess his century against NZ was the final approval of that just at the right time.

 

[Hasan123]

Amir on. Like this.

 

[WC-Passion]

Amir needs to take a wicket here.

 

[topspin]

Pakistan serving Afghan boti in Leeds, no need to go Akbars, My Lahore, Taste of Pakistan et al.

 

[CricFan2012]

Rashid, Nabi, Mujeeb on a spinning pitch, Hamid is an above average bowler as well, Ive got a bad feeling about this.

If Afghan gets 200 or over it will be difficult.

Our openers suck this World Cup, as much as I love Babar, he is a 40 averaging player spin, not as good compared to playing spinners, Harris will have to play well today.
