Hafeez securing his spot for WC

 

[Saffer_XIII]

Hafeez looks solid.

 

[mussu-100]

So younis could only manage 6 in two lives.

If he was a cat, he would still only make 27.

Brilliant shot Hafeez!

 

[Cricket_Engineer]

Please review it

[Sam18696]

looooooolllolol

 

[Cricket_Engineer]

LOL SHAFIQ OUT

 

[Barragan]

So you're saying that he should be in the team on the basis of one ton months ago against a minnow? Okay.

No, but he is a better batsman than younis and shafiq.

Maybe, if there were other more capable candidates, then I wouldn't have a cse.

Btw, he scored a 46 against Aus and a 74 against SL.

Also, shafiq just got out. )

 

[Shafi]

Wow!!!! Another TTF gone!!!

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

Shaky Shafiq !!!!!

 

[Azrim91]

and Hafeez is so far (fingers crossed) showing how to play in situations like this. Good feet movement, leaving the wide one's and quick late feet movement. On the other hand, the remaining 3 so far have been so lazy in their feet movement. Nevertheless, keep this team for the rest of the series.. especially Shafiq and Younis. Technically these 2 are fighting for one spot, and both playing absolutely horrendous!

 

[mussu-100]

There goes the youngster Shafiq.

But...but...but...it's a flat track against a pop-gun attack!

 

[Cricket_Engineer]

What was I saying in all my posts above, if the midget faces Henry he will either have a maiden or get out.

 

[volcyz]

AWESOME BOWL by HENRY!!!
Cleaneddddd outtt Shafiq!

What a BALL!

 

[Barragan]

I'm enjoying this so much.

Thank you Mitchell McClenaghan.

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

[MENTION=132954]Aman[/MENTION] This Henry kid will go on to become the best NZ bowler of the next decade....Mark my words.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

oh you are kidding me ..........

 

[Shafi]

Now the real match starts for Pakistan!!

 

[Sam18696]

Misbah time.

 

[cr7great]

poor pakis batsman cant play fast bowling at sarjhah even....

 

[steelo green]

Another day, another Shafiq failure. What's the excuse today? Batting at 4 not 3? What does it matter when you are in the fourth over anyways.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

And who's next now?

 

[menace2society]

Younis and Shafiq are unable to play with urgency.

 

[Sam18696]

Sorry I mean Haris time.

 

[steelo green]

When you have awful players on the team is it a surprise? YK, Shafiq and Misbah are passengers along with Afridi.

 

[Shafi]

Hope Haris performs otherwise Yk will point out his inclusion.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

Misbah will play at 6 today?

 

[Friend786]

For god sake , kick younis and shafiq out. Asad Shafiq averages like 25 for 1000 runs.

 

[emranabbas]

shame shame misbah

 

[Sam18696]

Really good bowling by this guy btw.

 

[akamaka]

Just came on now , what has happened lol )

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

Exciting from Pakistan ..........

 

[Cricket_Engineer]

Haris showing a proper defensive shot

 

[Pro Era]

[MENTION=107807]Pete Rose[/MENTION] so great predictions right? Put your money where you're mouth is? Asad Shafiq having a good series with the bat? I think Wahab Riaz has a better chance at that

It's a shame that Pakistan actually doesn't have Umar Akmal and Fawad and play these players that don't even deserve to play ODIs for Bangladesh let alone Pakistan.

 

[Asif321]

mahn its actually good useless odi players are getting exposed befor WC , get back fawad and umar

 

[Sam18696]

Looks like the management is messing around with the batting order.

 

[Friend786]

Bring back Shoaib Maqsood and Fawad Alam.

 

[Cricket_Engineer]

I am saying now if we have a line-up with Maqsood, Haris, Fawad and Umar Akmal we have a very strong dynamic team

 

[Amjid Javed]

I wonder how long clowns like YK and shafiq will be persisted with now, seems the selectors and captain never learn!

Id rather we lose with players like umar akmal, fawad alam and shoaib maqsood then TTFs like shafiq and YK!

 

[Blistering Barnacle]

Misbah hiding at 6 behind Haris.

What a leader.

 

[Sam18696]

by Hafeez

 

[Arsal_AK]

Shafiq and YK.)

So the golden boy fails again.

 

[mussu-100]

Thats how you play a short ball!

 

[rollingstoned]

I must say, the Kiwis have really good fast bowling stocks. Henry impressed me even against India.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

Dont assume misbah is a coward ........ he is done it loads of time before. even in england, where pitches are more favourable for bowlers.

 

[volcyz]

Hafeez looking amazing!!!
Fantastic player

 

[Sam18696]

Misbah hiding at 6 behind Haris.

What a leader.

Was at 6 last match too.

 

[pakistanisgreat]

even asad is my fav player but he is real disappointment in ODI

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

I am saying now if we have a line-up with Maqsood, Haris, Fawad and Umar Akmal we have a very strong dynamic team

and they were just there before they included asad and yk. it has been very unsettling.

 

[pakistanisgreat]

Harris is not looking comfortable out there so far

 

[Dr_Bassim]

I have never seen a forum excited at Pakistan failing.

Sums it up.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

Was at 6 last match too.

I believe they are just testing this young fella, if he can take pressure.

 

[Friend786]

Umar Akmal must be laughing on the bench , watching younis and asad.

 

[Asif321]

cant play pace at sharjah , pakistan will really have very very difficult time in WC

 

[pakistanisgreat]

henry got good pace

 

[Blistering Barnacle]

Was at 6 last match too.

Yes. He was hiding then too.

[Barragan]

Fawad, Akmal and Maqsood are most likely rolling on the floor laughing because they get replaced by shafiq and younis with every little failure.

 

[Pro Era]

Sums it up.

Sums up how idiotic our management is to put these atrocious batsmen onto our team. We're excited that these guys continue to prove that they're garbage and don't deserve opportunities so we can have a chance at the WC. Don't be butthurt because you're lover boys can't play ODI cricket at all but you can never accept it.

predict pak avr score

better to get exposed here rather than in World Cup.

 

[volcyz]

Hafeez looking like he's on a different pitch... what a player

 

[Saffer_XIII]

This Henry guy has good pace.

 

[NZcricketfan]

Every other batsmen struggling yet hafeez looks effortless. You don't deserve him in your team

 

[pakistanisgreat]

some how run rate is good

 

[Sam18696]

Yes. He was hiding then too.

Read this BB sahab

I believe they are just testing this young fella, if he can take pressure.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

Hafeez is at least a positive batsman ....... one thing about him is, he will take on opposition.
If only he could get over the moving ball.

 

[pakistanisgreat]

36 in 7

 

[steelo green]

I have never seen a forum excited at Pakistan failing.

You keep throwing a false narrative. No one wants to see players who in the long run are not going to perform for Pakistan. If losing the match the make the necessary changes in the long run. So be it. I hope we win but so hope Haris whom I think is a real player is a key component to it again.

It's about long term success.

 

[tauseef_mahmood]

5.26 runs per over ....... not bad.

 

[Sam18696]

Hafeez fans having fun I see

 

[pakistanisgreat]

change in bowling

 

[akamaka]

Man, this unfair on haris. debuts at 8, last game at 7, now on a bouncy pitch with movement shuffled up the order to 5, basically to open. this is how you ruin young promising players

 

[Cricket_Engineer]

Haris to get a century

 

[Sam18696]

good shot by Haris

 

[Barragan]

Quality shot from Haris.

 

[volcyz]

Sublime shot by Haris....

 

[pakistanisgreat]

what do you mean not bad? this is awesome after losing 3 wickets. you know how we are
