[marlonbrowndo]

7 runs is quite a lot to play with tbh

 

[Mueez]

Get Peak Wasim and peak Waqar Younis in.

Voila job done!

 

[sweep_shot]

Pakistan got runs on the board. I wonder if Sarfraz will keep.

 

[Mainul]

Get Peak Wasim and peak Waqar Younis in.

Voila job done!

We beat Pakistan with these two Ws in 1999 WC

 

[farazaidi]

At the end of innings, reporter caught up with Imam.

Reporter : how about your dismissal, stepping onto the wicket

Imam: Yeah you have to learn with every game, I was making 40s and 50s but not converting them into 70s and 100s. But I'm really happy to finally score 100, its a special innings at Lords. I'm still new at international cricket but you have to learn everyday.

 

[pillionrider]

The BD batsmen should raise their bats after hitting two boundaries

 

[Fazzy321]

To be honest it is a tough wicket.

Green pitch and wicket coming slow.

It will be harder to bat on second innings.

 

[Mainul]

Fizz is the third quickest to reach 100 wickets. A milestone to boast of

We beat Pakistan with these two Ws in 1999 WC

Not when they were at their peak

 

[saeed5646]

Pakistan was up and down in last 10 overs
Prior to last 10 overs 350 was on
Prior to last 5 overs 290 all out was on the cards
In the end finish with 315

Not happy with total should have scored 340

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

I seriously think Pakistan has the best bowling attack and if anyone can get us all out for 6, it’s Pakistan

 

[PCTPost2019]

Always harder to bat in the second innings at lord's.
I'll be surprised if they get anywhere near the target.

 

[sweep_shot]

I think I defended 5 in EA Sports about 20 years ago.

 

[nextover666666]

I hope Pakistan can win no shame in finishing 5th with same amount of points and wins only to go out by net run rate hopefully they can learn from this and become stronger

Funny thing is pak needed to win by 316 runs to qualify

Bangladesh has target of 316 to win the match oh the irony lol

 

[ARK Rafay]

7 runs is the target for Pakistan. Can Pakistan defend this one?

 

[Mueez]

A journey which started on a Friday ends on Friday.

 

[soulhunter]

Imam getting a century hurts really . But to be fair he has been much better than fakhar this world cup. Fakhar going overly defensive and guy is a hack. Should emulate Jason roy and go full on attack always

 

[saeed5646]

You were itching to write this don't you?

When is the semis btw

 

[BDfanforever]

Fizz is the third quickest to reach 100 wickets. A milestone to boast of

If we lose today, we can also boast being 7th or 8th. Hoorayy!!
Such an unprofessional Cricket side.

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Imam speaks good English, he deserves to be Pakistan’s next Captain.

 

[nextover666666]

I got bowled out for 0 when I first played stick cricket lol

 

[Itachi]

Target is 7runs. I think bangladesh can get it.

 

[ARK Rafay]

Why are you here then. We need you take the quickest flight to Lords. Now!

 

[pillionrider]

At a time when Pak won't be watching

 

[Mainul]

Not really
Ball is coming on to bat. In most ODIs in this WC ball is relatively slower to come to bat at later part of innings than the initial and middle part. That is understandable as ball becomes softer as the game progresses on. The outfield is lightning fast .
BD should fancy to chase this total. But have to bat well with concentration. It is chasable. Any team can win here. We should have a cracker of a game

 

[Mueez]

Haha imagine Pakistan bowls out Bangladesh for 8 runs

 

[Leeon1994]

I have seen Pakistan 4 out on just 1 run countless times so its possible.

 

[WengerOut]

Imam speaks good English, he deserves to be Pakistan’s next Captain.

"They bowled very well in the middle part of the YEAR"

 

[DHONI183]

I somehow can't help the feeling that Bangladesh are in with a good chance here of chasing this down. Somehow I get this feeling.

 

[Mainul]

Not when they were at their peak

An off peak two Ws were also lethal enough especially for our side back then

 

[Mueez]

If this was Papa New-Guinea we would’ve had a chance but no way we are defending this.

 

[Mainul]

[Shafi]

Forget about 7 runs,
I am more worry of defending 315 runs. We are 40 runs short.

Well it should be a good chase.

Will Tamim score a hundred

Gun gun gun death bowler. BD needs a good opening bowler to go to the next level.

 

[WengerOut]

Bangladesh will be all out before 250

Ok lets get real. Bangladesh can chase 300 against associate nations but we are talking about a top team here. Even in pakistans worst day, bangladesh cant chase 300.

 

[BDfanforever]

Bangladesh were so lethargic on the fields from whatever overs i watched. Actually both teams seemed lethargic for this dead rubber.

 

[saeed5646]

At a time when Pak won't be watching

Guess who will be next

 

[Shafi]

Stupid Fakhar innings may cost this game!!!! Very dumb team management.

 

[B_Positive]

Pakistan is flying home... (

 

[DeadBall]

7 runs is quite a lot to play with tbh

Sky Sports is showing Wasim Akram documentary for inspiration.

 

[pillionrider]

Guess who will be next &#55357;&#56834;&#55357;&#56837;

England?

 

[BDfanforever]

Brother Imad had such a good tournament with the bat.

 

[dadabhai]

BD to be inspired by a sense of brotherhood and declare at 6. Pak to win the world cup.

 

[RamLakhan]

7 runs is the target for Pakistan. Can Pakistan defend this one?

It will be interesting to see how Basit Ali, Rashid Latif, etc defend if this happens! Because normally it is the other teams who conspire against Pakistan! So now they should make sure Pakistan has honestly achieved it, because that's the only team which wins solely on merit!

 

[saeed5646]

England?

Sl and Afghanistan are back home .
Pakistan and bd are also going today
Guess only one team is remaining to show solidarity to other asian teams

 

[Mueez]

What a delivery that was by Wasim.

 

[rhony]

England?

No. NZ. They play first

Bangladesh conspired against Pak by not letting them score 500

 

[ekpakistani]

BD to be inspired by a sense of brotherhood and declare at 6. Pak to win the world cup.

Agree

 

[MenInG]

Imam-ul-Haq:

We have to be realistic and we had to ***** the conditions as well
Bangladesh are a good side and the were bowling well with tight lines
We went in with good intent but 400 is difficult and our plan was to go according to the situation and look for 300-320

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Amir 9/2

If anyone can, only he can. Jazba Junoon

 

[Duckworth Lewis]

Not easy for Pakistan. I was surprised when Indian bowling didn't trouble BD much.

 

[sweep_shot]

BD needs to keep wickets until 40th over.

 

[Mainul]

If we lose today, we can also boast being 7th or 8th. Hoorayy!!
Such an unprofessional Cricket side.

Have faith in our boys. I back our side to chase this InshaAllah

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

Bangladesh conspired against Pak by not letting them score 500

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Did you guys notice how friendly the Bangladeshi players were towards Pakistani players, chatting and talking. I have never seen Bangladesh misfield so much, dropped so many catches in one game. Their fielding display was the worst in this match and we gave away extra 30 runs. This match looks shady to me

 

[sweep_shot]

This is not a chase of 380. If BD keeps wickets and keeps up with run rate, they can chase it down.

But, Pakistani attack is really good. BD needs to start well.

 

[Mainul]

Harsha Bhogle: While the chances of qualifying for the semi-final were always non-existent, Pakistan should believe this is a good enough score to win a match. And even though Bangladesh have the best batting line up in their history, Pakistan should be disappointed if they can't defend this

This raises my eyebrows and now I feel pressure. I always value expert opinion.

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Simon Doul : They need to bowl Bangadesh out for 7

Our PM shall take away all flats and money from them and take them to exile to Nicaragua in f it is true.

You are more of an expert than Harsha

 

[Hasan123]

Lets try to win the game.

 

[Leeon1994]

Only 49 more maiden overs to go and we are into semis

 

[Green Patriot]

Not going to be an easy task.
Bangladesh is the only team to have chased 300+ in this tournament so they do have the confidence.
Need to be disciplined.

 

[sweep_shot]

Good start from Hafeez. Maiden.

 

[Duckworth Lewis]

Maiden. Still some hope lol

 

[Nikhil_cric]

So is Hafeez the last chuck of the dice by Pakistan ?

 

[Mainul]

Sir Tamim has given a maiden to Saqlain Hafeez . Talia...

 

[Hasan123]

Sakar will look to attack I think.

 

[Green Patriot]

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Need 1 more run

 

[Sunzi]

Well we wont be bowling them out for 7.

So lets just win the match now.

 

[dadabhai]

Agree

It appears Tamim Iqbal felt that brotherhood, but Soumya Sarkar certainly does not. LOL. Well done lad.

 

[Sunzi]

Dropped!

 

[Green Patriot]

Haris

 

[Leeon1994]

Bangladesh: We have fielded the worst today.

Haris: Hold my beer.
