245 max , Pakistan would be comfortably chase it down but anything above will test us . Our biggest weakness is our tuk tuk mode . England should be looking to target that , early wickets will give really them the edge because the middle order easily goes into a shell and scores slowly . The lower order is a bit unreliable . We need the guys to really go for it , play their natural game knowing that we have a long batting line up .
 
What's the matter with Malik's action?

Looks very uncomfortable when he delivers the ball.
 
Have a slip u idiot Misbah. Eng batsman r not picking Ajmal and u r letting them off easily :facepalm:
 
India has droped sachin to play youngster... and Pakistan drop one youngster to play old pathetic good for nothing crickter... i.e. Shoaib Malik... :facepalm:
 
Pakistan need to take another two quick wickets here. England still have batting PP to come as well.

250+ Maybe?
 
not his fault.. hes a batsmen . but made keeper just coz captain wants to fit an all rounder :malik

its not a good idea i think profesional keeper is better than make shift, he already costed us bopara wicket.
 
Our bowlers doesn't look threatening, England are playing Ajmal too easy. Misbah should look to place more attacking fields
 
Well it was a tough stumping chance since ball went through batsmans legs and might have hit his pads.
 
Lols, Cook of all, playing with the spinners.
 
:yk

england picking up runs way to easily here! Add to that the odd boundary and england could easily get 300 now!
 
I don't understant the strategy of completing the qouta of Hafeez. Two or three overs should have been saved for later.
 
Ok calm down. A collapse is on it's way! Pakistan will be chasing under 250 hopefully
 
Next game
Rehman in for Malik ... (proper bowler - would do better than malik in bowling certainly and could bat a bit)
Hammad Azam in for Riaz ...(decent batsman and medium pacer - can't do much worse than riaz in bowling and proper batsman at no 8)

So then....Team for 2nd ODI
Hafeez
Farhat (Azhar ali preferred but won't happen)
Shafiq
Younis
Misbah
Afridi
Akmal
Azam
Rehman
Ajmal
Gul

What do you think ?
 
Boundaries don't hurt you that much as much as singles and twos hurt.
