Pakistan v Australia | 2nd ODI | October 10, 2014 | Dubai | Pakistan Innings

[Justcrazy]

Poor thinking , to send Asad

 

[Amjid Javed]

as expected shehzhad threw his wicket away, just looked like he would do that any minute, god knows why shafiq has been sent in

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

we never give one wicket at a time ......... so whos next?

 

[Adil_94]

Shafiq will kill all our momentum

 

[Mr Consistent]

130-1
26 overs

 

[Sam18696]

I don't understand. I thought it will be difficult to bat on this pitch?

 

[Convict]

Shehzad sacrificed himself to try and keep Doherty in the team

 

[ViciousMachine]

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

100% agreed. If Pak had wanted aggression, Umar Akmal is a better choice. But I am ok with Asad Shafiq in the end. He is decent and we have a good platform, do not really need to experiment too much. Plus, our batting is brittle as glass

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Sirfaraz is all set for his maiden ton

 

[Bullet Drive]

Shafiq can make or break our innings now.

 

[Sam18696]

Mrs. Misbah

 

[Bullet Drive]

Shafiq must go at a run a ball here. Been given a great platform.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

run rate is 5. i dont car e if there is no boundary just keep it at this run rate.

 

[Aman]

Shehzad sacrificed himself to try and keep Doherty in the team

Shafiq there to offer some relief, if Dohetry gets him, then he should get the boot.

 

[Justcrazy]

130/1

26 overs

 

[Classyshot]

Two Karachi/mihajir players batting together. What a great sight!

 

[imshally81]

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

ok the striker is back

 

[aukhan]

If Shafiq dont score today then he should be dropped for ever from ODI's for good.

 

[Aman]

Sarfraz gone now.

Momentum almost all gone now.

 

[Sam18696]

Sarfraz gone

No century

 

[ammar93]

we never give one wicket at a time ......... so whos next?

Thanks a lot .

 

[ViciousMachine]

And the collapse begins.... Thank god we sent in Asad Shafiq in hindsight.... Please just make 200

 

[HamzaSaeen]

Send Fawad

 

[Justcrazy]

Two down

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

knew it ...

 

[Mr Consistent]

2 down

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

How the hell does Pakistan do it?

Seriously how.

 

[DanishJamil]

Catching practice! sarfraz

 

[Aman]

Misbah and Shafiq need to carry on from here.

Can't waste this good start.

 

[saiyan0312]

gone is sarfraz. great knock and he hits it to point.

 

[Mr Consistent]

wicket for jhonson

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Look who is coming in next .


All hard work done by sarfaraz and Shehzy will go down to pits

 

[aukhan]

Sarfraz

plz send umar

Misbah there goes the RR

 

[Sam18696]

300 impossible now. Need to make 250

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

Thanks a lot .

sorry ..... but it is kinda our habit.

 

[Red Devil]

Please don't collapse now

 

[Sam18696]

Oh man Misbah..

 

[ViciousMachine]

If Shafiq dont score today then he should be dropped for ever from ODI's for good.

Ah yes... the old "Lets put so much pressure on the batsman, that he has almost no chance to succeed" tactic.... I am no fan of Shafiq, but if you selected him, you need to put faith in him. Tell him to go out and play his game.

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

The King and the Crown Prince..

 

[Mr Consistent]

now misbah & shafiq

 

[Adil_94]

Sarfraz played well

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

why do we chase wide deliveries ? i dont get it.

 

[Sam18696]

Two tuks together

 

[saiyan0312]

Misbah in. oh boy. We need to keep the momentum and these two can really take the momentum away from us.

 

[menace2society]

Tailenders in.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Perfect time to send in Fawad.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

lets see .... I hope they take us to over no. 40 Insha Allah.

Umar Akmal selfie from Cricinfo ) ) ) )

 

[Amjid Javed]

2 wickets fall in an over, now comes the tuk tuk for 15 overs while we lose all momentum in the inns

 

[Sam18696]

Misbah

 

[Mr Consistent]

bouncer

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

I wish Misbah best of luck to score a big one today.

 

[saiyan0312]

Cmon guys dont make this into a 140/4

 

[Mr Consistent]

 

[ammar93]

sorry ..... but it is kinda our habit.

I was hoping it would be Shafiq instead of Sarfaraz .

 

[Ikball]

2 down, Misbah bhai aik adad century please.

 

[Adil_94]

Misbah will struggle against Mitch

 

[saiyan0312]

Mass confusion there.

 

[Sam18696]

Lol confusion. No duck for Misbah!

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

doesnt matter ..... if they take it to 40th over with 180-200 on board ..... that would be excellent.

 

[MRSN]

) )

 

[imshally81]

What a confusion

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan should nt get bogged down

 

[Mr Consistent]

misbah off the mark

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

Beautiful solid defence

Only need 50 more

 

[aukhan]

Misbah hahaha

 

[Fastandfurious]

I just hate Shafiq, this guy is a tuk tuk machine. Thinks every game is a test match.

 

[Sam18696]

Akmal looks high

 

[Sam18696]

by chota tuk

 

[Bullet Drive]

These two will lose us advantage.

 

[Justcrazy]

Short ball pulled away for fourrrrr

 

[saiyan0312]

[Mr Consistent]

good shot

 

[aukhan]

[GreenKnightRises]

[pakistanigoneaussie]

Beautiful shot by the crown prince. Please make this count

Take that you PP forum Asad Shafiq haters

 

[Adil_94]

Misbah gets overhyped. A format where you have to take risks and chances and Misbah has such a high average. Yeah look at his S/R Ramiz.
