Eng 93/1 after 20 overs, we need to get malik on and try and slow scoring down and take a few wickets, seamers have been impotent so far this inns.
 
Should try something different because these 2 look impotent.

Shouldn't have dropped Zafar after last game, in my opinion.
 
I feel more reassured with Malik bowling than Yasir, he's definitely good enough to consistently provide 10 overs unlike many believe.
 
Yasir gave it some air on the last ball and surprise surprise it spun a bit...
The previous 2 deliveries were both bowled at 89 km/h and had nothing
 
Waqar should be sacked , his training methods , team tactics are obsolete


What we have historically been the best fielding unit in his time.
We have probably stopped 20 runs im fielding uptil now and we are not even half way.
 
Run rate is within control but its the danger of an explosive last 20 overs
 
Pakistan know how to shut down opposition in last ten overs. The problem is that England will have scored about 260 by then, which is about 61 more than this Pakistani batting's pedigree.
 
Unless yasir does something today he should stay away from odis for good. Hes lost us too many games. An attacking legspinner who cant get odi wickets. Hope he proves me wrong
 
Heck, Malik is bowling better then Yasir at the moment. Shouldn't have dropped Zafar...:69:
 
Yasir needs to get a little closer to the stumps on release.
 
Why not for a change bring in Wahab or Irfan for 2 over of spell...
 
Why would you take a fast bowler over a spin bowler's slot? Does that makes sense to you?

No i wasnt saying literally lol! I meant yasir is a waste in this format and even rahat can get wickets. Zafar or any other soinner is obviously the first choice.
 
Fan favorite Malik gets hit for a six.
So Yasir shah is not the only one bowling badly today???
 
Yasir needs to do something. We cant carry him in every odi like we did with younis
 
New formula of modern cricket (a boundary and some 1's and 2's) looks very simple when other teams play and but its our turn things looks totally dejected.

Lol at least yasirs primary job is to get wickets. Id take malik the bowler over yasir in odis. How is zafar worse than yasir mate?

Malik is literally a tailender in this side. What has he done with the bat honestly? In this whole series besides his 245???
 
Giving away 125 in first 25 overs is not bad on this pitch......the problem is Pakistan losing the match in the first 10 overs when they come out to bat under lights
 
I'm slowly losing my patience with Rizwan. He is not as good as some people think he is in this team.
 
Nobody's fault. Flicked keepers glove in the process.

We will have a very long tail then

Zafar, Bilal/Yasir, Wahab, Irfan

Zafar, Bilal and to some extent Yasir can bat!

Well 4 specialist bowlers are must at least! If the batsmen score well, the tail will automatically get confident and will score some even if they have less skills!
 
Lol now youre hating on rizwans fielding. What knee jerk is this


He has misfielded twice today and now a dropped catch. I think he is a bit too oversmart sometimes does not realize what he is doing.
Like his run out last game. Trying to be too cute coming down the pitch to a run not even there. Getting himself run out in the process.
All his dismissals have been tame this odi series. And he is oversmart with his fielding too.
 
Game going same way as 2nd odi, dropping chances and england building a solid platform, defensive captain and bowlers who dont look like taking wickets being picked and played!
 
In classic waqar fashion, the better player is sitting on the bench. This time it is zafar. :)

Before it was shehzad. Waqar has to fill his quota.
 
People are hating on Rizwan's fielding after that deflection. Our fanbase genuinely doesn't deserve good fielders.
