[tauseef_mahmood]

who is bowling?

 

[imshally81]

 

[Sam18696]

 

[MRSN]

Sweet timing by Sarfraz.

 

[saiyan0312]

sarfraz smashing maxwell.

 

[Justcrazy]

Slog on

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

six dude .... wait for it.

 

[Amjid Javed]

should be Aiming for 160 here after 30 overs.

 

[Mr Consistent]

runs

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Sehwag esque from Sirfaraz

 

[imshally81]

Good Running again..

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

he is good against spinners .... i must say

 

[aukhan]

Ramesh Raja with his over the top lame jokes.

 

[Sam18696]

What is the highest opening stand by Pakistan?

 

[Asif321]

what a welcome to.maxwell lol

 

[MRSN]

That's it? If he goes, then who else is there?

Compare this to Aus, who have a number of players who can shift gears.

You are right. We don't have good finisher. Afridi is not reliable at all. We are missing Hafeez here badly.

 

[Fastandfurious]

Does anyone else mute it when Ramiz comes on?

 

[Mr Consistent]

119-0
24 overs

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Wow that four against maxi

 

[Asif321]

these 3rd class sppiners wont work against Sir faraz

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

good run rate closing in on 5.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Good. Sarfraz needs to attack and attack. Shehzad needs to just stay there and be at the wicket for the full 50.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Pakistan should get 300 with such a start.

They should not be happy with 250-270.

Having 300 aim would be a good practice for WC.

Just need to tap the ball around and go bonkers in the end and 300 is there for the taking.

 

[Sam18696]

So who will reach 100 first? I say Shehzad

 

[ammar93]

What is the highest opening stand by Pakistan?

228*. Hafeez and Farhat vs Zim.

 

[saiyan0312]

This is great batting. masterful batting and sarfraz has massive control against spin. Placement of a master.

 

[Sam18696]

Is this pitch flat?

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Sarfraz looks effortless against spin.

 

[Justcrazy]

Afridi needs to come in next.

 

[Convict]

Pakistan should get 300 with such a start.

They should not be happy with 250-270.

Having 300 aim would be a good practice for WC.

Just need to tap the ball around and go bonkers in the end and 300 is there for the taking.

This. This is a 300 start

 

[imshally81]

Afridi needs to come in next.

this..

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Is this pitch flat?

That's what I have been asking too.

300 is a safer total for Pak's bowling.

350 for India.

 

[Adil_94]

Pakistan should get 300 with such a start.

They should not be happy with 250-270.

Having 300 aim would be a good practice for WC.

Just need to tap the ball around and go bonkers in the end and 300 is there for the taking.

We dont have a top class finisher. After these two we have tuk tuks only player who can finish is Umar but he is unreliable.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Shehzhad needs to learn from sarfaraz on how to pick the gaps and rotate the strike.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

playing so sensibly ........ impressed man.

 

[coy0607]

they keep showing Misbah- and he doesn't look happy.. these guys are playing too many shots for his liking

 

[Pak_Jazba]

I'd be gutted if we don't get 300 after this.

 

[Mr Consistent]

7 runs from the over

 

[aukhan]

collision lol

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

up for 150 ......... get there before 30.

 

[Ikball]

250+ will be tough to chase.

 

[Asif321]

sarfraz should develop shots through long on too will become very dangerous then

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Sirfaraz is the best player of spin in Pak team at the moment

 

[DW44]

What is the highest opening stand by Pakistan?

228* by Farhat and Hafeez against Zimbabwe.

 

[ammar93]

Check out that economy for Wasim. Wow.

 

[SuperMAG77]

mmm who is the hottie???

 

[ViciousMachine]

Gone....

 

[DW44]

Second time now where a shot of Wasim Akram is followed immediately by one of Waqar Younis. What a sight these two were bowling together.

 

[Sam18696]

Shehzad gone

 

[Justcrazy]

First down

 

[ammar93]

Aww man. Poor shot on a poor delivery.

 

[saiyan0312]

shezad is gone. that was a bad ball and he got caught at it. good knock but he needs to make them count.

 

[aukhan]

waqar chatting with umar batting promotion maybe.

 

[Mr Consistent]

 

[Justcrazy]

126/1

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

aahhhh

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Shehzad missed an easy 100.

 

[MRSN]

threw away.


Good luck to Asad good looking Shafiq now..

 

[Mr Consistent]

bad shot but well played shazzy

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Tuck menistan has begun

 

[aukhan]

who's next ?

 

[ViciousMachine]

I am lots of opinions about who should come in next. I would either send in Akmal (for aggression) or Fawad (if Pak want to consolidate, cause him-Sarfraz are decent combo for rotation of strike)

 

[MRSN]

waqar chatting with umar batting promotion maybe.

putting too much in his head..Not good.

 

[Fastandfurious]

Chota tuk tuk is in. Great technique but can't score runs.

 

[Sam18696]

Please don't send Shafiq. Please don't send Shafiq. Please don't send Shafiq.

 

[HamzaSaeen]

Shafiq in and lets kill the momentum

 

[Mr Consistent]

Doherty got the wicket

 

[Asif321]

shahzad good innings oh god now shafiq

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

asad will take some time to settle ....

 

[Sam18696]

OH MAN Shafiq in

 

[Mr Consistent]

now shafiq

 

[Ahson8]

Should have sent Afridi

 

[Yatoo]

Nice played Shehzad. Century next match Insha Allah

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

That ball should have been deposited in the stands.

Shehzad got out to it.

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

The hell is shafiq doing here

Hope he only takes 15 odd balls to get himself in

 

[Sam18696]

Shafiq off the mark

 

[DW44]

Afridi needs to come in next.

Absolutely not. No need to trigger a collapse after such a good start by losing another wicket in 8 balls.

 

[Mr Consistent]

Wasim Akram in the crowd today enjoying a cuppa. Now Waqar on the screen, talking to Umar Akmal.. btw - did you all see Umar Akmal's picture on twitter yesterday?

)

 

[saiyan0312]

Shafiq in. come on man dont let the momentum go. we need a score here.

 

[saiyan0312]

Edged but no slip.
