sarfraz has only one shot in his arsenal : sweep and that's all his game. but he does play it well.

 

[RehanG]

if Umar Akmal fails kick him out for Maqsood..

 

[Sandeep]

Need to stop picking Faulkner in the team based on his batting.
His bowling isn't up to it

Mate, he is being swept. Coming from Perth, can you think of any bigger insult to a fast bowler? )

 

[razabbas]

Now a brilliant flick

Sarfraz

 

[Mr Consistent]

another boundary

 

[saiyan0312]

jumped out and smashed them. Great shot. impressive stuff.

 

[asyed]

Seems like Sarfraz is gaining some confidence here but still I"m not certain if he is answer to our opening issues.

Playing wisely though. No need to so anything stupid here. Just rotate strike and we will win.

 

[DrSchultz]

Sarfraz on fire!!

 

[aukhan]

lol he is a fighter not a coward so refreshing to see this.

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

This guy is turning it on

This guy is a riot lol. This is quality entertainment!

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

that how he handled herath ....

 

[Madplayer]

sarfarz is doing the job that was needed of all the openers that have been tried so far. score those ugly but brisk runs off the new ball. just one innings and an incomplete one so far but boy is he showing the FIGHT he showed in that sl series.

One should play in his limitation shehzad tries to copy Ab de villers which usually cost his wicket

 

[mithun_minhas]

Sarfaraz targeting poor Faulkner. Probably the weak link in Aus bowling.

 

[Justcrazy]

208 from 41 overs required

 

[Indiafan]

Always liked Sarfaraz, is a fighter

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

i do not think he will play as a regular opener

 

[Convict]

Mate, he is being swept. Coming from Perth, can you think of any bigger insult to a fast bowler? )

I'd personally probably consider a beamer at this point

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Faulkner is simply not good enough for international cricket. Need to get a proper batsman instead of him.

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Who should play anchor here ?? Sarfaraz is clearly there to attack

Its been a while since I've seen aggression from a Pakistani opener

 

[saiyan0312]

Aagin sweep. aussie pacers must be really angry here.

 

[saadsahabjee]

Wow man this guy is quality ........ much better than brainless akmal brigade

 

[Asif321]

he has done well already

 

[Mr Consistent]

50 up for pak

 

[Fahdi]

I am enjoying watching Sarfaraz.

 

[Justcrazy]

Fifty up

 

[Barragan]

I hope Fawad isn't batting at no. 6 because it would show how insecure misbah is about Fawad taking his spot.

 

[mithun_minhas]

Sarfaraz playing dangerous sweeps. One miss and the ball will hit the grill.

 

[asyed]

50 up for pak

Inside 10 over with only 1 down, this is so refreshing to see.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

asad is just rotating strike .... like that

 

[ammar93]

i do not think he will play as a regular opener

Perhaps not, but I'd like to see him as a regular in the team even if it's down the order if he can continue performing well.

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Sensible batting this 50 up under 10 - Good Stuff

[Asif321]

introduce spin now

 

[razabbas]

Shafiq dont know what to do cant even rotate the strike

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

I hope he does well today .... but he should play confidently.

 

[Mr Consistent]

51-1
10 overs

 

[Bullet Drive]

Shafiq really losing momentum for Pakistan.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Bailey needs to bring Lyon or smith or Maxwell on. Enough of Faulkner's trundling.

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Does anyone know how hot it is there atm. Everyone is sweating like crazy on the field

[tauseef_mahmood]

[saiyan0312]

easy win for pakistan now

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

and asda shafiq will get it on now ...

 

[Bilal7]

Shafiq enjoying the Sarfaraz show. It would be real nice if both the batsmen could be scoring runs instead of piling the pressure on one guy.

 

[razabbas]

that turn sharpily

 

[ritzy_123]

Shafiq is pathetic why is he in the team if he didn't open the innings

Sent from my GT-I9105

 

[aukhan]

OMG look at that turn he got.

 

[mithun_minhas]

Sarfaraz can play more sweepshots now

 

[IAJ]

lols rubbish aussie appeal

Yes exactly what's the point of putting all the pressure on Sarfaraz

Important game for Lyon

 

[Asif321]

Sarfaraz playing dangerous sweeps. One miss and the ball will hit the grill.

this guy has lost one teeth cause of sweeping in domestic to pacer

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Spin and bounce!

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

trained by murali

 

[IAJ]

Some of the posters here needs to calm down. Sarfraz is playing shots and Shafiq is doing the right thing here.

 

[desi_launda]

lyon bowling like

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Lyon puts almost as much revs as Swann fid .

 

[downwarddog1]

lyon is an improved bowler wow he is spinning miles

 

[ritzy_123]

What a shot by Shafiq It's better to call Saad Nasim in place of Shafiq who will definitely improve with time IN SHAA ALLAH
