Pakistan v Bangladesh | Match 43, World Cup | 5th July, 2019 | Lords's | Pakistan innings

Surprised there were no changes, if you want to score 400+ wouldn't you want to pack side with 7-8 batsmen who can bowl a bit too? Even miracles need some intent

Because they aren't going for that. If they are then they are stupid
 
as a neutral surprised pak did'nt pick Asif...send him at the top telling him to swing from ball one for the tal timber

the second surprise is not playing hasnain....if you wanted your young guy who has PACE , this was the chance to give him the experience on the world stage....
 
If Pakistan score less than 340 they're out before Bangladesh bat right?
 
Iman and Fakhar are making sure Pakistan don't qualify, big 3 conspiracy, blatant lack of intent, should get fined like the guy at Wimbledon....

Guys..am I getting this right?
 
"We will score 500" and then you don't play at least one extra batsms and open with Imam and Fakher. Captain is only good for giving big statements.
 
Green pitch will help Amir and co. restrict Bangladesh under 100. All stars are aligned.
 
What is this rubbish?

PAK 1/0 (1.3) CRR: 0.67

It doesn't matter if you lose, go for it..
 
Fakhar only knows how to slog. Why he is trying to be batsman?
 
It is over. Pakistan is out. Not playing two extra batsmen made it clear that Pakistan has no intention to even try.
 
Nice careful start to the Test Match by our openers seeing off the lethal new bl attack on a green wicket.
 
Only ball fakhar can hit is wide and short, anything into his body or 4-5 stump he blocks.

Too limited as an opener to be consistent againt top 4 teams
 
There were some people on PP who actually thought Pakistani batsmen would play brave and attacking cricket.
 
Apart from Babar, Hasnain, Shaheen, Amir and Haris all the players need to be disposed.
 
That greenish tinge all its doing is giving nice bounce. Pak really have no excuse for not getting at least 350, forget the rest of the totals
 
Pakistan should of checked out if renting Jason Roy and Bairstow for a day was possible.
 
Fakhar hacking it.

Going across the line - playing extra cover ball towards leg. What a fool, what a hack.

Well schooled by Nicholas.
 
Three overs in and the wrist-slitting has begun :23: As if any team turns up and scores 500 whenever they want to... Pakistan haven't even done that in Tests since 2016 IIRC :))
 
Folks here need to stop showing their anger on these 2 batters.

They're just following the orders and strategy what Sarfraz + Mickey gave them.

Remember - people play according to a plan.
 
Fakhar needs to hit out vs spin.. he is horibble vs them..

Its the first 10 overs he shouldve had atleast a few sixes in those 2 overs. Fakhar has zero othodox shots

It's a good day for the rest of the world to troll us.

Especially after the "we'll score 500" foolish statement by the genius Sarfraz.
 
Why does everyone play like it is a World Cup final against Pakistan? Except when it is a must win game for host nation England they get handed out toffees.
