Zee Cinema

 

[Red Devil]

Although Awais Zia shouldn't be anywhere near the national team, but I would be lying if I said I'm not looking forward to his innings

 

[zabalestmsm]

Looking forward to Raza Hasan...

 

[Asif321]

is pre show on air ?

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

This XI would be very refreshing. Although we are not playing full strength but still would give a good benchmark on where we stand atm.

About half an hour to go now.

 

[saiyan0312]

Cmon Pakistan. lets win this.

 

[Lords]

Toss ki news kya hai?

 

[Suleiman]

Excited to see this new look t20 side in action

 

[saiyan0312]

Pakistan wins the toss and bat first.

 

[Sam18696]

Afridi wins the toss. Pakistan batting

 

[Lords]

Lala gained some weight.

Fitness fine?

 

[aukhan]

pak batting.

 

[saiyan0312]

Well since we really mess up chasing so a good call.

 

[ExplicitAI]

Pak will bat

 

[Sam18696]

Not chasing which is good. But still our bowling looks bad.

 

[saiyan0312]

Aussies have four debutants playing. WOW

 

[Bullet Drive]

PAK win toss.

 

[Arsal_AK]

Team anyone??

 

[zains_rulez]

Pakistans attack is not that much good...so not a good decision !!

[Arsal_AK]

The wicket looks a belter. Need to put up a great score. Without Ajmal and Hafeez, our bowling looks really weak.

 

[ExplicitAI]

Nasim to debut!

 

[mussu-100]

How the hell is Anwar Ali playing over Tanvir?

 

[Ikball]

Mohammad Irfan The Destroyer

Only real pakistani fast bowler who bowling is good on eyes.

 

[Barragan]

Hope Irfan doesn't play because he will be ineffective against the Aussies on these pitches.

They are accustomed to pacy and bouncy pitches, hence Irfan won't be effective.

 

[Arsal_AK]

Saad making his debut.

 

[Ikball]

What is Pakistani XI for this game?

 

[srh]

If Awais Zia perform in this match then Pak may include him in ODI squad as well.

 

[Ikball]

Heard Saad and Awais are making debuts.

 

[steelo green]

If Awais Zia perform in this match then Pak may include him in ODI squad as well.

No. He won't perform and he should never be selected in any format ever again.

 

[Indiafan]

Pak batting

 

[Ikball]

If Awais Zia perform in this match then Pak may include him in ODI squad as well.

Dont think so. ODI team is already over capacity.

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Hope we win this rooting for the youngsters to perform on this big stage

What are d playing 11 ?

 

[Ikball]

Pakistan Team
Ahmed Shehzad, Awais Zia, Sohaib Maqsood, Umar Akmal†, Umar Amin, Shahid Afridi*, Saad Nasim, Anwar Ali, Wahab Riaz, Raza Hasan, Mohammad Irfan

 

[Arsal_AK]

No Tanvir and Amin playing at six. There goes the theory about him being picked as an opener.

 

[Gigii]

Dont think so. ODI team is already over capacity.

Still space for one opener to make his mark. There's doubts if Hafeez doesn't bowl anymore, Sharjeel (whom I think should be persisted with) has been dropped. There's options domestically, it's up for grabs.

 

[srh]

How can Sohail Tanvir not make this team

 

[Barragan]

Irfan and Anwar.

Bhatti and Tanvir would have been far better options.

 

[Ikball]

Two Leggis , interesting.

 

[saeedhk]

Why the hell is that mediocre Amin is playing?

 

[Ikball]

No Tanvir and Amin playing at six. There goes the theory about him being picked as an opener.

Amin is in the team.

 

[aukhan]

If Awais Zia perform in this match then Pak may include him in ODI squad as well.

who says?

 

[Ikball]

Sami Aslam ( U-19 opener) has been called as Hafeez's replacement.

Hafeez is out for 2 weeks, will miss ODIS.

 

[aukhan]

Good tanvir is not playing.

 

[pakistanisgreat]

hello all

 

[razabbas]

No sohail tanvir YES YES YES

 

[Gabbar Singh]

Is this pitch really going to be bad for bowling? The way the 'experts' are talking we'll be lucky to see 140 scored.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Hate UAE batting tracks. So slow and low. Means low scoring.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Yeah probs that.

 

[Bullet Drive]

140 will be a winning total for Pakistan.

 

[Asif321]

Tanu not playing shocking, Anu got nod i guess because of fielding and batting

 

[Ikball]

Good tanvir is not playing.

Tanvir is a good T20 bowler, atleast better than Wahab/Anwar.

 

[srh]

Non-selection of Sohail Tanvir may cost Pakistan this match.

 

[pakistanisgreat]

10 mins to go

 

[mussu-100]

After Tanvir's last performance against WI it's a crime to not pick him, especially over Anwar!

 

[Asif321]

this is some young inexperienced team

 

[Ikball]

Great to see young Pakistani team. I pray they perform well.

 

[Donal Cozzie]

I've backed to top score for Pak, Finch to top score for Aus and Lyon to take most wickets.

Lets do this

 

[pakistanisgreat]

anwer ali in t20, did not get it

 

[srh]

Which team would not pick its best bowler in that format?

 

[Munna]

Gradual build up in the stands. Amazing atmosphere so far here

 

[Ikball]

I heard Saad is also a leg spinner. Is he a full time bowler?

 

[Pakistani_Legend]

Willow is showing the match.

 

[aukhan]

Tanvir is a good T20 bowler, atleast better than Wahab/Anwar.

Yes good in leagues only.
