Pakistan v New Zealand | 5th ODI | December 19, 2014 | Abu Dhabi | Pakistan Innings

[Square Drive]

Stop. Defending. The effin' ball!

 

[Bullet Drive]

Shafiq...... dot balls again

 

[DOOSRA95]

Younis is not future in ODI's his past is not glorious with bat , but young players are miles behind the top 5 sides ....really bad selections from PCB.

 

[Dr_Bassim]

I repeat.

I thought under AFridi team played naturally aggressively ?

Looks like people here just want to change captain for sake of it.

 

[Mr Consistent]

asad off the mark

 

[Bullet Drive]

No one seems be too bothered about our bowling giving away so many freebees? Should we have been chasing so many runs in the first place?

MIG bhai, 270 is a average total nowadays.

Its a chaseable total.

 

[mithun_minhas]

Shafiq will make sure that YK is not missed.

 

[ekpakistani]

You have to give it to our team to make wanna be's popular

 

[Dr_Bassim]

No one seems be too bothered about our bowling giving away so many freebees? Should we have been chasing so many runs in the first place?

We shouldn't.

But then again, we focus mostly on things like why Younis and shafiq is playing.

 

[Bullet Drive]

I repeat.

I thought under AFridi team played naturally aggressively ?

Looks like people here just want to change captain for sake of it.

Are you blind dumb or ignorant?

YK plays this way under any captain.

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

No one seems be too bothered about our bowling giving away so many freebees? Should we have been chasing so many runs in the first place?

That's because the bowling is poor quality. The fielding was rubbish as well though compared to NZ and there's no excuse for that.

 

[Square Drive]

The fact that we have Jamshed, Younus, Shafiq, and Anwar in the same XI itself is disgusting.

 

[habibi hayya]

In comes a younger younis khan

 

[chacha kashmiri]

No one seems be too bothered about our bowling giving away so many freebees? Should we have been chasing so many runs in the first place?

Pakistan don't have a fifth bowling option, it was bound to happen

 

[Justcrazy]

This is a joke of a top order.

 

[Mr Consistent]

25-2
10 overs

 

[dirk diggler]

I wander what waqar "head buried in sand" yoinis will blame This time

 

[Juansar_07]

Clueless YK gone - Henry.PCB yet again wasted someone else's deserving spot for this guy.

 

[Square Drive]

Didn't they say the same thing after the last WC and look where that got us!

True.

 

[Mr Consistent]

No of boundaries by pak team in first 10 overs= ZERO

 

[mithun_minhas]

10 overs and no boundary scored.

 

[ekpakistani]

Devcich is next one to be made warne

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

No one seems be too bothered about our bowling giving away so many freebees? Should we have been chasing so many runs in the first place?

Should YK and Asad be playing an ODI in the first place ???

 

[ekpakistani]

Finally a boundary on a rank full toss

 

[Mr Consistent]

First boundary

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

that looks close

 

[castortroy]

That looked plumb

 

[mithun_minhas]

Finally

 

[ekpakistani]

I m now watching the match without pressure as we wont win this one

 

[Justcrazy]

Shehzad will never learn rotation of strike

even after over 50 games cannot rotate.

 

[Pure Evil]

I am watching the Pakistani batting after a long time and am seriously disappointed. No boundaries in the first 10 overs!!! Ahmed Shehzad is hyped on this forum but he does not seem to be the world-beater that he is expected to be :-/

 

[ekpakistani]

Pity the crowd

 

[amomin]

This lineup is totally messed up. Team is in pressure and you have Younis and Shafiq back to back. Need Umar/Haris/Sarfraz to be in and take initiative top of order and not waste them when match is already lost by these two failures.

 

[mithun_minhas]

Shezad lucky to be still there I think.

 

[Justcrazy]

31 . 2

11 overs

 

[ekpakistani]

Asad shafiq wants to be the next captain... that is why he is becoming a tuk tuk master

 

[chacha kashmiri]

shehzad given a lifeline , he needs to make use of it now

Wake up shehzad and smell the paratha

 

[Amjid Javed]

Kiwis trying to get thru as many overs from 5th bowler while pakistan are playing at snails pace, we need to go after these bowlers.

 

[m.shah]

Shezad was out

 

[FreeBird]

No one seems be too bothered about our bowling giving away so many freebees? Should we have been chasing so many runs in the first place?

300 odd is generally a norm of the day.
Bowlers getting battered is what modern day cricket is all about. Expect this sorta total in almost every game.

It's our batting that has to step up and make 300 odd total as a normal day in the office

 

[Mr Consistent]

34-2
12 overs

 

[Square Drive]

Oh my God, what the heck am I watching.

 

[pak4life]

We will be an embarrassment in the world cup where 300 will probably be a par score.

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Are you blind dumb or ignorant?

YK plays this way under any captain.

I think you are blind.

In first match AFridi captain we made 364.

Everyone was playing fast.

And you managed to say that it was because Afridi became Pakistan.

 

[Mr Consistent]

2 runs by asad

 

[Dr_Bassim]

*captain of Pakistan.

 

[Mr Consistent]

shazzy was out

 

[Justcrazy]

Really sad to see This state of top order.

 

[Mr Consistent]

3rd down

 

[Asif321]

YK is useless

 

[Barragan]

We will be an embarrassment in the world cup where 300 will probably be a par score.

It will be and the recent between SA-Aus is clear evidence.

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

lol typical shafiq reviewing

 

[ekpakistani]

Seems review wasted?

 

[Mr Consistent]

reviewed by asad

 

[fasihulhaq94]

so asad shafiq was a great player of spin

 

[mithun_minhas]

Umpire owed one for Pak. Shez reprieved.

Now is that out?

 

[amomin]

Chasing 275 should be a more organized chase.

 

[leatherface58]

Lol Shafiq wasted the review. Well done! )

 

[chacha kashmiri]

the umpire really is on pakistan's side

 

[Mr Consistent]

review wasted wicket for molana sahab

 

[m.shah]

Musebat team

 

[Bullet Drive]

Classy knock. Better then Fawad.

 

[Juansar_07]

Shehzad Survives.

 

[ekpakistani]

Why is shafiq unhappy? With that technique. . He expects to be given not out?

 

[mosh101]

Good review ! Well done shafiq !

 

[jib13673]

thats the end of shafiq..the best technician in the world according to team management

 

[Asif321]

YK is useless yaar

 

[castortroy]

Another series decider loss

 

[Barragan]

Review wasted on such a rubbish batsman.

Oh well, at least we have a chance of winning the game.

 

[ekpakistani]

In the past we can win with such batting effort as we had match winners in shape of bowlers..

 

[Justcrazy]

Next great Hope Asad also gone

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Finally a real batsman comes to the crease.

 

[razazaidi]

Thank God - Both YK and AS are gone. Time to play normal cricket!

 

[Justcrazy]

No point in Playing these kind of 90 s batters

 

[mithun_minhas]

Pak needs more attacking players at the top.

Too many Tuk Masters loaded in the top order.

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Funnily enough, if Pakistan loses, all blame will go to YK.

Rest of batsmen will be OK no matter how they played )

 

[Bosch]

Asad younis please yaar come on please man

 

[Zeshan547]

Yar Pak team ka tu wo he haal hota hai har baar k "na khuda mila na wisaal e sanam" mtlb play very in start of inning to save wickets to attack in the end but irony is the still lose wickets and in the end they often neither have runs nor wickets. And Pak has only themselves to blame for always trying this proven failed method. As they say "common sense is not so common"

 

[ekpakistani]

Only misbah can pull off tuk tuk as he often can catch up on scoring. .shafiq n younus shudnt be in world cup

 

[90MPH]

Sorry to say glad these TTFs Younis and Asad got out early.

Pakistan have a better chance now to chase it down, though it's still very remote.
