Pakistan v Australia | 1st T20I | Abu Dhabi | October 24, 2018 | Pakistan innings

[Rana]

He simply does not deserve to be in the team. Bashing a couple of sixes against Zampa full tosses doesn't change that.

The top order is simply not good enough, I'd much rather put someone like Asif Ali at 3, even.

Lol, Zampa against Asif Ali

 

[KingKhanWC]

Hasan Ali is still to come.

 

[Vitaly]

aaya ram gaya ram lol

 

[Kohli The King of Chase]

What's going ONN??

 

[Nikhil_cric]

First ball duck for imam )

 

[Markhor]

Shadab and Fahim are the golden boys of the team management but they have struggled since the Asia Cup.

Need a kick up the backside.

 

[fluke]

believe me guys imad wasims bowling will be the key here

 

[CricketDon]

Honestly believe the players accounts especially Asifs need to be investigated. They are purposely getting out. What a joke. No pride

 

[ARK Rafay]

Like I said 'Dark Times' ahead for Pakistan Cricket.

 

[DeadBall]

My inner Gormint aunty is about to surface.

 

[mak36]

[MENTION=133760]Abdullah719[/MENTION] how many times has "all rounder" Imad got out for a (first ball) duck or similar?

 

[Ummii]

5 wickets in last 14 balls

 

[Madplayer]

Imad must have heard the beep of oven.

 

[Asif321]

This team will win world cup

 

[The Viper]

Bunch of mediocre players

 

[MMHS]

Man our batting really is PATHETIC to say the least. Its like after top 3, koi proper batsman hai hi nahi! Literally the tail starts right from 4. Sardraz, asif, faheem, shadab, imad, hassan....absolute batting mediocrity one after another. Smh

One reason is that, you don't play proper top 1-2-3-4. At least they made one correction to put Babar at 2, which should be the case for ODI as well; while instead of slow-mo guy, he should bat at 3 in Test. I wrote it somewhere that, Babar has to succeed in Test at 3, or he should be dropped.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Babar will take a single

 

[Madplayer]

Can Pakistan crawl to 150 somehow.

Bet nobody thought of it 2 overs ago.

 

[Ummii]

believe me guys imad wasims bowling will be the key here

nice

 

[MMHS]

Has anyone ever carried bat in T20?

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Shadab and Fahim are the golden boys of the team management but they have struggled since the Asia Cup.

Need a kick up the backside.

Agree. We look short of confidence.

 

[Plumb]

Need some "inspirational Words" in the dressing room

 

[Madplayer]

Hasan ali also tried to get out. They are competing against each other how to get out quickly.

 

[Plumb]

My inner Gormint aunty is about to surface.

that's what keep the boys in line

 

[Rana]

Terrible batting by Fakar, Asif, Talat, Sarfaraz, Shadab and Imad also

 

[Usman Chadda]

Terrible batting by Fakar, Asif, Talat, Sarfaraz, Shadab and Imad also

You could have said the entire team

 

[JibranAnsari]

Has anyone ever carried bat in T20?

Gayle?

 

[Abdullah719]

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Australia will still lose this match though. Lol. That's how much they gave regressed as a batting side.

 

[Madplayer]

Get to 150 to push the Aussies. They will still chase it in 17 overs.

 

[KingKhanWC]

150 will give Pak a chance.

 

[Rayyman]

Imad and Shadab at least make the team on bowling alone. Same can't be said for Faheem.

I blame the collapse on Talat. His batting started it.

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Hasan ali also tried to get out. They are competing against each other how to get out quickly.

Dressing room probably said to aggressively and these guys took it to another level trying to hit from ball one.

 

[Ummii]

Team management should invest more on Hassan's batting rather than wasting time with Asif and co

[IMMY69]

Some of the comments here are ridiculous.

Yes it’s been a bad collapse... yes it’s been a bit brainless...
But this is the team that pretty much got us to number 1...

Be critical of the performance but for gods sale keep some perspective and stop abusing the players.

 

[MMHS]

[MENTION=143344]babajee[/MENTION] - watch Hasan here, this could have been 16th over with 6 wickets at hand.

 

[Plumb]

Watch Sarfi to go on field with the stick and lots of yelling

 

[Madplayer]

Dressing room probably said to aggressively and these guys took it to another level trying to him from ball one.

Fimally its working for someone.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Babar to take a single.

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Hasan time.

 

[troodon]

Singles will not do it for Pak. No boundary since almost 5 overs.

Babar needs to flex his muscles and hit some big ones.

 

[Rana]

Would rather have Hassan on strike!

 

[Josh]

Hasan Ali is the all-rounder ..not Fahim

 

[The Viper]

Hasan Ali is better than our bats.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Haha

 

[Plumb]

Hasan making sure to make the runs he is about to give away

 

[Madplayer]

Babar to take a single.

)

Its written in the stars.

 

[Rana]

Well done babar, hooray you were not out

 

[Justcrazy]

Hassan using long handle here

 

[Ummii]

They will finish up in 17th over

 

[Justcrazy]

156 is the target

 

[ARK Rafay]

Hasan better striker than Faheem?

 

[Plumb]

.

 

[MMHS]

Gayle?

Not saying about 20 overs batting, rather staying NO when 10 wickets have gone down from other end. Many has played out 20 overs

 

[ARK Rafay]

)

its written in the stars.

lmao

 

[Josh]

Looking very gol matol

 

[Gotham Cronie]

Asif Ali, Hussain Talat, Faheem Ashraf, Sarfraz Ahmed, Shadab Khan & Imad Wasim = 12 off 15

Hasan Ali = 17 off 8

 

[Plumb]

almost there

we 'll endup crawling to 157

 

[KingKhanWC]

Pakistan will defend this by taking pace off the ball.

 

[MMHS]

Decent total, not match winning, but bowlers & fielders has lot to defend here.

 

[Josh]

is looking very gol matol

 

[CricketDon]

Another 50 and a bit out for babar. Protected his average and soft stats. I guess he’s won on a personal level. Like he cares about anything else.

 

[JibranAnsari]

No boundary hit by babar on his last 11 balls he faced.

 

[ARK Rafay]

View attachment 84807

New rapper in the house?

 

[Rana]

Something to bowl at now

 

[DeadBall]

New rapper in the house?

Practicing his new choco pan dance.

 

[Darkrai]

Another 50 and a bit out for babar. Protected his average and soft stats. I guess he’s won on a personal level. Like he cares about anything else.

You serious man? He was the only one who scored. He couldn't do much when everyone started getting out for ducks.

 

[troodon]

HAsan Ali may have just won the match for Pak.

Great hitting from the powerful man. Now he has to his thing with the ball.

 

[castortroy]

So shoaib Malik misses one game and the middle order crumbles like this

 

[Madplayer]

New rapper in the house?

Well he is about to spit out a sick beat in the dressing room, thats for sure.

 

[MRSN]

Good total

 

[castortroy]

Aussies will get this in 17 overs

 

[JibranAnsari]

Not saying about 20 overs batting, rather staying NO when 10 wickets have gone down from other end. Many has played out 20 overs

Gayle stayed not out , all his team got out.

 

[Rana]

You could have said the entire team

Babar and Hafeez did well, Hassan kind of saved the day so far

 

[Madplayer]

Good total

If you are an aussie.

 

[MMHS]

Gayle stayed not out , all his team got out.

I see, must have been a great knock.

 

[MRSN]

So many bits and pieces players exposed again. How can we pin our hopes on these club level shinning stars to win the wc?

 

[JibranAnsari]

I see, must have been a great knock.
