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

[GreenKnightRises]

Misbah is gone. Now who will gear up and score Big in that Power play as planned earlier by some

 

[Ahson8]

Feel for Misbah; he's already out of form and now he gets run out when he was looking considerably better.

 

[Fahdi]

Quick single.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Misbah please retire!

 

[msdfan]

Expectng 260+

 

[razabbas]

ahhh i almost forgot that fawad alam is also there

 

[Bullet Drive]

Shafiq has played well.

 

[saiyan0312]

Well these two have to bat really well. Fawad at this point wont do good since he cant smash the ball.

 

[Adil_94]

Umar please bat sensibly

 

[steelo green]

They know more than an average guy watching from a different country. Plus, remember the team? The one who scored UNDER 100 !!! If one more wicket goes down, we could collapse for 180!!!

I rather play safe, get even 250. Our bowlers are amazing, we have 3 spinners, Aus cannot play spin, give your team STRENGTH a chance. Why are we gambling on our WEAKNESS??

Nevermind, the trolls dream has come true.

This was the logic in the Asia Cup final and we simply didn't make enough runs to win. If we can score easily that means that Australia will also enjoy this pitch.

 

[mosh101]

Everyone wants akmal to bat higher except kaptaan

 

[Ahson8]

Love seeing that Misbah average go down

 

[razabbas]

Feel for Misbah; he's already out of form and now he gets run out when he was looking considerably better.

you serious he scored 15 from 29 balls when we already had a good start

 

[saajidrox]

A wrong tactic by Pakistan sending the batsman as per the line up on the paper. They need to play according to the situation; Aussies were down and out until Misbah and Shafiq bogged down and made them come back on top. A team like Australia you don't give them a chance to come up again you keep them down as you can. This is where they missed the trick; they should send in Umar, Fawad or even Afridi earlier before Shafiq . They lack taking risk and improvising to the situation. Unfortunately Ramiz raja was right about this

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Look at the bright (or brighter?) side guys.. misbah might drop Shafiq for the next game

Still There is a deep Tunnel Of Darkness in the form Of Misbah

 

[Fahdi]

I am guessing umar goes cheaply.

 

[saiyan0312]

i didnt got out on my fault it was just a run out and it can happen to anyone

Not when you are ball watching against the most dynamic fielders in cricket world today.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Umar should bat 3

 

[Adil_94]

Misbah needs to go out Maqsood in.

 

[IAJ]

Misbah shoult bat at 8 and only play his other half of innings; big hitting!

 

[zabalestmsm]

Shafiq shud gear up now.

 

[imshally81]

Taking too much risk for these singles

 

[mosh101]

PP time !

 

[Mr Consistent]

4 from the over

 

[Bullet Drive]

come on Umar. Need a 50* from u

 

[saiyan0312]

Powerplay will be on now. So interms of hitters we have afridi coming in next.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Umar is a real batsman. Straight into it.

 

[razabbas]

Power play and umar akmal

 

[Mr Consistent]

Batting pp time

 

[imshally81]

PP Time
Make or Break

 

[mosh101]

Akmal is they key to a good total here !

 

[Sam18696]

Indeed
Some fans are really pathetic. Already Misbah is under so much pressure and here they are wishing for him to fail. Disgusting.

 

[Fahdi]

Here comes the PP. I'll take 25 for no loss in the PP. Another wicket is the last thing we need.

 

[Mr Consistent]

Richardson comes back

 

[Asif321]

how to get 260

 

[CricketBuff]

After the great start that we got Misbah came in and scored 15 runs off 29 balls. Pathetic.

 

[Sam18696]

Sandstorm in Dubai

 

[Bullet Drive]

ODI squad announced after this game. If Umar does well, he will play.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

play with calm

 

[Sam18696]

Yikes look at that sandstorm

 

[Bullet Drive]

Sandstorm approaching. We will have an interuption

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

run out is unlucky

 

[razabbas]

ODI squad announced after this game. If Umar does well, he will play.

Test ?

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

come on guys ..........

 

[zabalestmsm]

Disgusting defensive batting and wasting of balls. They both look scared. Man up guys. We need 200 at least before 40 overs.

 

[saiyan0312]

3 from the first over of the powerplay.

 

[mosh101]

Akmal is a busy man at the crease

 

[Mr Consistent]

168-3
36 overs

 

[Sam18696]

Another wicket here and 200 will be impossible.

 

[Bullet Drive]

We shoulda scored 300 after the start. Misbah cost us that.

 

[Ikball]

Dean jones comparing UA with Inzamam.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

make the power play count.

 

[saiyan0312]

jhonson in for a shot.

 

[Red Devil]

Akmal

 

[ammar93]

Did Shafiq really run Misbah out? The commentator keeps on saying it. I think Misbah was at fault too.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Mitch vs Umar

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

chill out guys afridi yet to come

 

[Haseeb 22]

Umar Akmal is crap

 

[razabbas]

Umar gone

That was not needed atm all the momentum have been killed

 

[mosh101]

Akmal departs !

Pakistan in deep trouble now !

Can we get 200 now?

 

[saiyan0312]

Oh come on ... umar akmal gone. fuller ball and just chipped to mid off. that is a pathetic dismissal.

 

[ammar93]

Aww man. There goes akmal too.

 

[Mr Consistent]

umar gone

 

[IAJ]

What a rubbish shot!

 

[saajidrox]

Mitch into the attack
Umar Amal needed to be calm and settle in gets excited cause of the power play and
AUSSIES now pulling things back well

 

[JibranAnsari]

And the ******** legend again gets out in power plays.

 

[Sam18696]

[MENTION=56866]Bullet Drive[/MENTION] jee aap kuch bol rahe the?

 

[Shafi]

U Akmal out!!!! We are in trouble

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

dammit .... when will this guy learn?

 

[HamzaSaeen]

So 40 runs have been scored since the opening partnership was broken

 

[mosh101]

Sand storm is to blame

 

[IAJ]

Ab tuk tuk karo power play mein

 

[OmaIR1]

245 on the cards as predicted earlier

 

[Fahdi]

Last thing we needed! I knew this would happen, never trust an Akmal.

 

[razabbas]

230 should be our target atm

 

[Bullet Drive]

Well done Umar.

 

[Mr Consistent]

2nd wicket for jhonson

 

[MRSN]

OZ are back in the game.

 

[steelo green]

Unbelievable. How stupid can you be.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]
