Yes but i have seen Ireland batsmen struggling against poor spinners on nothing pitches
Dang you're right.....I just remembered watching them struggle in last game.

Oh well. Too late at this point and we have afridi at least.
 
Okay good test for Pakistan. Pakistan's chances of winning the match have gone down drastically. The whole batting lineup must be shaking in its boots right now.
 
Hmm so we replace Irfan with a trundler. Well let's see how this pans out.

On the other side WI look like absolutely smashing the Irish.
 
guys i am worried...but lets be realistic. if we can not chase against Ireland then we do not deserve to play QF!!!
 
Mohsin Khan looks angry on Younus exclusion lol and on Rameez for asking the captains who is gonna win on toss haha
Good. Arm chair experts couldn't get anything accomplished when they played but are talking a big game now.
 
People want Yasir in when this is the same place he went for plenty.

Ehsan isn't half as bad as people make him out to be. In fact, most people were backing him before that 1 bad match. Some hailed him as the next McGrath, all that changed in a handful of games?

That was India. This is Ire
 
Best squad based on available players except Irfan got injured unfortunately.

Off spinner bro.
there is a difference. Leggies are always easy for lefties.
 
But Pakistan cant chase anything so it might not be that bad.

Pakistan shouldn't find it hard to bash these dibbly dobbly trundlers. Trust me, I have seen Irish bowling in the last match, and it is more hopeless than people can imagine.
 
Hope Ireland gives us a decent target which the openers go out attacking..small targets seem to mess with he Pakistani think tank..don't want that bs keep wickets in hand approach..not today
 
Must restrict to < 220

Who is Irfan's replacement? Is it Adil?

Please be Adil...
 
this is freaking ireland!!! we are already praying the funeral prayers for pakistan :facepalm:
 
Should have played shah
Shocked that younis was left out... Team man must be shocked too

250 or under and we'll chase without a problem


310 under it will be a bit difficult

I think we bowl them out for 186

And chase 187/6
 
Chasing. Oh no.

Need to restrict them to sub 220 if we can.

:(

50-50 game now. Maybe 60-40.
 
And we are chasing, don't have any confidence in this batting line-up, but if we can't win against Ireland, we don't deserve to go through.
 
Agarkar and Bevan saying they're not sure if dropping YK was a good idea, Agarkar said he was surprised YK was dropped lol..
 
Ideally the bowling should be opened with Adil and Rahat but ofc Sher Khan is gonna open the bowling with Adil probably...
 
Not good when Sohail is not looking like a liability.

I hope they can hide Adil because he is going to be targeted. He has bowled like Sami but without the pace.
 
hopefully its a blow out by pak, I've had a rough day already, my heart can't take a thriller.

then again does pak win any other way :)
 
Ireland;s bowling is at it's best when the ball is moving a bit. The ball will move a bit under lights in Australia. I believe this will be an even contest and if Pakistan win the game chasing 250+, it will give do their confidence a world of good
 
Coming back just to post for this match. Also you guys are the worst, for goodness sake have some faith in your team, if pakistan can not chase, THEY DO NOT DESERVE TO WIN THE WORLD CUP.
 
Good thing no Yasir. Would have been thrashed. [MENTION=136548]Aloo Chaat[/MENTION]
 
Correct Ireland has no bowling line up , anything should be chased against them. It just will be a thrill ride along the way

you guys will easily win. i can't see how IRE batsman will be able to negotiate pak bowlers.
 
IRE are vulnerable against spinners.
This is Adelaide we are talking about. Ireland also have a bunch of lefties so taking 2 leggies would be a gamble. In the last couple games, the majority of wickets have been taken by the seamers so good job for not adding Yasir.

Exactly i don't understand why people cannot comprehend this. If you want to lose slowly sure throw in yasir, good lad but not the right decision
 
If Pakistan can't chase they don't deserve to be in the world cup simple as that.
 
Invisible modding going on...

Especially going to watch for trolls.

Thank you and enjoy the match :)
 
Pakistan batting second means the match is already lost 95%.
Not necessarily. The batting track is flat and this is Ireland bowling we are talking about. Besides, we need the practice of chasing. Good teams can play all sorts of cricket in different situations, we need to be put under pressure and succeed.
