Beautiful shot by Farhat.

He does deserve to be in the side as he has scored runs recently would be unfair to drop him.
 
Let's go farhat bhai! The most hated man on pp has actually done decently in odis lately
 
I don't think the seamers did a terrible job, they bowled at tough times and got a bit unlucky.

This ptv show with akhtar is terrible awkward and funny. The host read shoaib an email about how he wasted himself as a player...

He was also criticizing misbah for Malik Inclusion in the team. He was saying its a bit unfair to better players. Misbah himself had been victim of the same thing and he should have pushed for a younger deserving player instead of whole year tried failure.
 
How are we going to win matches with crappy batting? Good bowling will only take you so far....
 
What is with people and their constant whining about Tuk Tuk cricket? Did they forget we're only chasing 260 and not 360?

Reminds me of how much I miss the old days where the most important batsmen in the side were the ones who built their innings batting in the middle order in a methodical way and carried their teams on their backs. The likes of Dravid, Azharuddin, Miandad, Da Silva, Rantunga, Steve Waugh, Michael Bevan etc. Those chases were a sheer joy to watch.

Aaj kal ke laundoan ko bus maar dhaar, bam wam, boom boom type cricket chahiye. Old-school cricket ki koi value hi nahin rahin.

260 on a wicket like this is NOT a big ask. We need players like YK and Shafiq to hold the fort and build the innings. Otherwise, the likes of Afridi, Malik and Ukmal won't take us nowhere.

You need them, but not 3 of them, in the same batting order, next to each other.

And Shafiq gone.
 
Hafeez gone, the extra pace of finn seemed to trouble him in 1st over aswell.

Pak 11/1
 
what happen to professor opposition worked out. the flawed technique is exposed at great pace from Finn.
 
I told this before, Finn should have played Tests... He is a devastating fast bowler. Can deliver goods on any pitch. He troubled Indian batsmen on the flat decks in India...

Finn is the real deal.
 
I will say this again: Our ODI team selection/batting order is absolutely pathetic. Umar Akmal not batting at 3 is a joke. Farhat, Malik and Younis in this team is an even bigger joke.
