Pakistan v England | 4th T20I | NSK | 25 September 2022 | Pakistan innings

[Nasty Naz]

Pakistan might not even get 180 with the way they're playing. Playing as if England won't chase this down super easily when bowlers like Hasnain & Qadir are bowling at them.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Babar only sped up a little at the end, Rizzzy has slowed down since the beginning. Rizzy probably getting tired as Babar didn’t do anything for most the game

What tired , he hogged most of the strike. He needed to score more if took most of the strike in powerplay and after.

 

[ammar_merry]

Shan has the right approach. Rizwan just wont come out of his comfort zone.

So far playing with his legs. Whats the approach.

 

[Ilan Bluestone]

Pakistan has no excitement whatsoever.

They said let’s not get 120 all out. Let’s get 150

 

[Marooned]

Babar really killed us here.

 

[JibranAnsari]

That's the modern cricket. He needs to adapt. He was way better than this earlier.

One of the pitfalls when you are always trying to build a big partnership. The goal should be to score quickly instead of just be there till 15th over.

 

[Mainul]

Smart work

Outswinger much more effective against Rizwan

[imshally81]

Welcome boundary for Pakistan

 

[TeymurBlake]

Need some big overs from Pakistan.

 

[daytrader]

Should've sent a pinch hitter instead of Shan Masood. I guess they want him to spend time in the middle to get in form for the WC

 

[JibranAnsari]

Babar really killed us here.

Babar only faced 40 percent of the deliveriws in the partbwrship and similar sr to that of rizwans.

Why mentioning babar only

 

[PakPremi]

Rizwan continue to impress,Babar was poor today.

 

[Saj]

Need 180 as a minimum here.

England bowlers doing well by keeping it simple.

 

[NeVerMind]

England are getting reverse swing

 

[adzzy786]

What tired , he hogged most of the strike. He needed to score more if took most of the strike in powerplay and after.

Babar always starts of really slow. Rizwan carries him.

 

[ask_analyse_act]

I would have promoted Asif Ali

he cant play more than 6 balls , so they will hide him and KS down the order below Nawaz

 

[Rana]

Babar really killed us here.

But he proved Aqib wrong last week

 

[adzzy786]

Babar has been poor since he sent out his tweet minus the one innings. Should learn to keep his mouth shut

 

[Waleed93]

Pakistan's middle order (3-8) averages 17 runs per wicket at a strike rate of 129 since the start of 2022. That is the worst amongst Top 10 T20I teams, including Zimbabwe and Bangladesh.

Babar and Rizwan in the powerplay this series : 50-0, 59-0, both got out in the powerplay in the 3rd T20I, and 52-0 today.

They are wasting the powerplay, Sharjeel and Fakhar should open, with Azam Khan at 3.

 

[ask_analyse_act]

Need 180 as a minimum here.

England bowlers doing well by keeping it simple.

160 max they will get , if played well..

 

[TeymurBlake]

Shan Masood here isn't really making things easy for his team. He needs to hit out or get out.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Babar always starts of really slow. Rizwan carries him.

And rizwan slows down when he is well set. Who does that in t20s

 

[Rana]

Fitness not coming to the fore so far

 

[JibranAnsari]

And btw scoring @125 sr isnt carrying your partnwr

 

[James]

Pakistan going too slowly. Too defensive

 

[NeVerMind]

Pakistan's middle order (3-8) averages 17 runs per wicket at a strike rate of 129 since the start of 2022.

Babar and Rizwan in the powerplay this series : 50-0, 59-0, both got out in the powerplay in the 3rd T20I, and 52-0 today.

They are wasting the powerplay, Sharjeel and Fakhar should open, with Azam Khan at 3.

I agree... We need to get back the good old days of 30 for 3 in the power play....

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

It is obvious that Shan will not succeed in T20's at international level. This can kill his entire career in all formats of the game. Pakistan have habit of picking wrong players for any format.

 

[Rana]

Big over alert

 

[Fazzy321]

Shan struggling to time the ball

 

[ask_analyse_act]

6 overs to go need 50 runs to score 163

 

[ammar_merry]

3 of 7 from number 3

 

[TeymurBlake]

God this is irritating to watch.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Why cant you play cut shot rizwan

 

[Rana]

High class bowling

 

[ammar_merry]

It is obvious that Shan will not succeed in T20's at international level. This can kill his entire career in all formats of the game. Pakistan have habit of picking wrong players for any format.

He is soft player in all formats

 

[ask_analyse_act]

they are doing that for years, and still dwindling the bottom of rankings for being so...

 

[adzzy786]

And btw scoring @125 sr isnt carrying your partnwr

Up until 7th over - Rizzy 170 strike rate , Babar 100
Isn’t that carrying?

 

[Rana]

Why cant you play cut shot rizwan

Because he doesn’t hack it

 

[todfod 11]

Rizwan needs to slog now

 

[NeVerMind]

Hales drops a sitter again! Maybe they won't to keep Shaan in?

 

[Marooned]

He is soft player in all formats

Far from a soft player.

He has played some immense knocke well under pressure.

 

[ekpakistani]

They aiming for 160 ?

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

It was intentional, smart move by Hales !

 

[ask_analyse_act]

Why cant you play cut shot rizwan

leg side hacking

 

[adzzy786]

Hales is paying back for Pakistan for letting him
Play in the PSL

 

[PakFan2010]

Rizwan and Shan need to consolidate until the 35th over. Last 15 overs will be the time to be aggressive.

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

Pakistan's middle order (3-8) averages 17 runs per wicket at a strike rate of 129 since the start of 2022.

Babar and Rizwan in the powerplay this series : 50-0, 59-0, both got out in the powerplay in the 3rd T20I, and 52-0 today.

They are wasting the powerplay, Sharjeel and Fakhar should open, with Azam Khan at 3.

We definitely need hitters opening to make the most of the powerplay overs. If Babar and Rizwan aren't able to do it then give some genuine hitters the chance to stake a claim.

 

[todfod 11]

Asif Ali should be next in

 

[Rana]

This is boring man

England want to make it boring too!

 

[Nasty Naz]

Smart drop to let Shan Masood drop in all honesty. Pakistan can continue to accumulate singles like the clownish team they are.

 

[Marooned]

Tactical drop.

 

[ammar_merry]

Far from a soft player.

He plays well under pressure.

What is his avgs in international format. Always seems missing once gets under pressure.

 

[Rana]

Big over coming

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Had enough of this rubbish Mentality cricket team

 

[todfod 11]

Can pakistan get to 180 from here?

 

[daytrader]

120/1 in 15 overs. Last 5 coming up, need to make them count

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

170 would be tough from here

 

[Sarwar89]

England deliberately dropped shan masood catch. Strategic wisdom. They do not want Asif ali to come.

 

[TeymurBlake]

David Willey back.

They need to target him.

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

They aiming for 160 ?

Babar said before the 2nd T20 that 160-180 woould have been his target to set. That is his go to benchmark score.

 

[Marooned]

What is his avgs in international format. Always seems missing once gets under pressure.

Sorry, I thought you were talking about babar.

 

[NeVerMind]

We just can't set a score batting first, can we?

 

[boomboom6]

utterly trash batting ...

 

[JibranAnsari]

Up until 7th over - Rizzy 170 strike rate , Babar 100
Isn’t that carrying?

And how slow you have to play to bring sr from 170 to 130? His sr was 130 when he completed his 50.

From 33 to 50 rizwan took 17 deliveries. There was no reason to slow down. He is just carrying himself not babar. He should have score 50 in 29 balls going @ 170 but got in 39.

 

[Rana]

Waqar Younis is the best Pakistani commentator in this bunch

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

Can pakistan get to 180 from here?

No.

 

[Sunny_majoka]

Raise your hand who were supporting shan

 

[Waleed93]

The main difference between Babar and Rizwan is that when Babar plays 50+ balls, it rarely is a poor innings.

Rizwan, on the other hand has a bad habit of sometimes playing a lot of balls and playing a match losing innings in the process.

We saw that in the Asia Cup, and now again.

 

[ask_analyse_act]

with current run rate they will make 160 max

 

[imshally81]

Shan is playing babar's role here

 

[todfod 11]

England field placement is so smart, they blocked Rizwans scoring areas brilliantly.

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

Big over coming

Bhai bas karrr ! Khelne dhe

 

[imshally81]

444

 

[Marooned]

Shan playing a gem here.

 

[Rana]

Still can’t hit sixes after being there for 10 overs out of 15

 

[todfod 11]

Not a single six yet ) or I missed something?

 

[Waleed93]

Shan is giving me Ahmed Shehzad vibes.

 

[Kroll]

This is poor.

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

Raise your hand who were supporting shan

Me but in ODIs at No.4

 

[Rana]

Shan Masood has written a book on batting?
