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

[ekpakistani]

Taptaan in no mood to score or play... walking wicket

 

[JaDed]

Sarfraz dropped

and the match with it such poor cricket by both teams!

 

[castortroy]

Afghan spinners are better than pak and bangla and Sri Lanka

 

[Mainul]

It is still Pakistan's games to loose. Haris should have been gone by now though, caught behind, that was a massive moment

 

[Leeon1994]

Imam may be a poor scorer. But I respect his decision to walk. He knew he was out and behaved like a gentleman. Babar vocally sounded his surprise at that honest gesture. And now Harris knowing too well that he was out decides to continue.
It is a game, a professional game, but these cricketers have no shame.

This happens in every match when a batsman takes review thinking he is not out.

 

[Kianig89]

How rubbish a batsman is Sarfraz 2/10 or .5/10 or -2/10

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Both Harris n sarfu get lives, need to make the most of it now. Just play 10 overs normally guys...

 

[AdamM97]

Kaptaan should play a captain’s innings here. Time for him to prove his capabilities.

 

[JaDed]

That was a straight catch kn a full toss

 

[Jeetlodil]

Sarfaraz needs to be taught how to defend

 

[FanofCricket]

Pomy is such a good commentator

 

[Arsal_AK]

Dropped. Sarfraz cannot even play a fulltoss.

[Dios]

Afghans are sensing that the pitch is getting more and more difficult to bat on.

 

[pakistanisgreat]

100 left

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Pakistan has serious issues chasing totals .. hope they bat first against desh

 

[Sin Nombre]

Pakistan should be 125/6 but Afghans and their poor reviews and catching means they will be losing this.

 

[ekpakistani]

99 needed now

 

[Hasan123]

Sarfraz strike rotation will be important here.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Afghanistan made a mess. would have been 6 down

 

[JaDed]

Shinwari should shut his face after dropping that catch

 

[CricFan2012]

Our Afghan bros need to do us a favour for helping their cricket by dropping more catches, they're already knocked out of the World Cup

 

[Kianig89]

Sarfraz got a lifeline now he must get us home

 

[castortroy]

These part timers are more accurate than pak bowlers

Hard times being a Pakistani

 

[Hawkeye]

Expected from Sarfraz. He can't bat under pressure, or bat at all.

Has always failed us in chasing.

A new life given by AFG, which he didn't deserve.

 

[babajee]

This is such an easy chase if Haris and Sarfaraz can bat out the overs.

 

[Green Patriot]

99 of 19.

 

[Titan24]

Just need one good partnership and Pak will be home

 

[BleedGreen]

Hafeez adds unneccessary pressure by losing his wicket at the wrong time. Bring in asif ali and promote haris

 

[Adnan_Ilyas]

Hard times being a Pakistani

Feeling nervous lol

 

[shah_1]

It is still Pakistan's games to loose. Haris should have been gone by now though, caught behind, that was a massive moment

Afghan or any team deserves it for such an awful review. Don’t blindly go for a review

 

[Shafi]

What will Afg CEO boast? Our batsmen just don't have any pride.

 

[pakistanisgreat]

Need 50 odd partnership

 

[JibranAnsari]

40 overs of spin will be too much for pakistan.

 

[Jeetlodil]

Sarfraz strike rotation will be important here.

If he can survive 30 balls

 

[FanofCricket]

Pakistan cricket at its best one minute down next minute up

 

[ekpakistani]

98 more

 

[AdamM97]

Sarfraz has to play for himself here, literally. Losing this would make his life a hell hole.

 

[BleedGreen]

Nabi on. He has 17 balls left. Just play him out

 

[pakistanisgreat]

Need to see off nabi

 

[CricFan2012]

Shades of CT Pakistan vs Lanka where Sarfu was dropped from a Malinga Slinga ball and won us the match.

Will forgive Sarfu for his trash captaincy if he repeats that today

 

[pillionrider]

If Pakistan can't chase this after all these messups from AFG, they should be hopelessly ashamed.

But usually, when things like this go Pak's way, they win.

 

[castortroy]

One more wicket here and we are done

Imad and Shadab will struggle against mujeeb and Nabi and wahab will be unable to bat

 

[Jeetlodil]

99 of 19.

That 19 seems like balls and not overs

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Shades of CT Pakistan vs Lanka where Sarfu was dropped from a Malinga Slinga ball and won us the match.

Will forgive Sarfu for his trash captaincy if he repeats that today

Exactly. Inshallah

 

[shaz619]

Cameraman must have zoomed in on every chick in the stadium by noe lol

Can't blame him, all the good looking ones come out when the weather is nice

 

[Ahmed216]

When will Hafeez leave cricket

 

[ARK Rafay]

Wow we've batted at run rate of 3.75 b/w over 11 - 30

 

[ekpakistani]

97 needed now

 

[FanofCricket]

Just need one good partnership and Pak will be home

Inshallah it will come

 

[AdamM97]

This match is going to define Sarfraz reputation for the coming years.

 

[jusarrived]

Pak needs to be smart here . Just play out mujeeb and nabis 5 and attack Rashid . All depends on how Rashid bowls now

 

[shaz619]

Pakistan!!!!!

 

[Jeetlodil]

Pakistan cricket at its best one minute down next minute up

When is it up?

 

[jattafridi]

Looks difficult for Pak

Try your best guys

 

[AdamM97]

When will Hafeez leave cricket

Hopefully in mid July.

 

[FanofCricket]

Sarfaraz struggling

 

[ekpakistani]

96 now

 

[imshally81]

Good running

 

[CricFan2012]

When will Hafeez leave cricket

When ICC stops giving the chucker more chances once he gets banned again, he's in the team for his bowling anyways

 

[BleedGreen]

Come on pak

 

[mrtaim3]

Just when things get stable, someone throws a wicket

 

[pakistanisgreat]

2 overs of nabi left

 

[Hasan123]

As long as we keep rotating strike we are good.

 

[Jeetlodil]

Just need one good partnership and Pak will be home

You mean home as in Pakistan

 

[Shafi]

Not only our players are lack of skill they are dis-passionate as well. Win or loose is not a big deal for them. Always stay cool.

 

[FanofCricket]

Stiil 6 left from rashid 2 from nabi 3 from mujeeb its too much

 

[Kianig89]

Spare a thought for those.fans sitting in Headingley would be an absolute shame if they go down against AFG #pantsed

 

[AdamM97]

You mean home as in Pakistan

Good one.

 

[Bangladesh_Fan]

Game on , this will be close . But dropped catches and wasted reviews not helping Afghanistan

 

[ekpakistani]

95 now

 

[surg]

Harris Sohail showing, how it's done

 

[big_gamer007]

God is with Pakistan. Haris was out but poor decision by Umpire and then sitter dropped of sarfaraz. These moments tell you Pakistan will win the world cup.

 

[castortroy]

This part timer has has been excellent

 

[pakistanisgreat]

Why down the track kaptan

 

[Ahmed216]

Hopefully in mid July.

Inshallah

 

[ARK Rafay]

This was always going to be a scary game.
You have nothing to win (besides 2 points). But everything to lose

 

[Kianig89]

AFG has 8 spinners

 

[FanofCricket]

2 overs of nabi left

9 left from rashid and mujeeb
