Pakistan v South Africa | 2nd T20I | Lahore | February 13, 2021 | Pakistan Innings

[angrypathan]

2 off 8 )

 

[Heisenberg111]

Khushdil keeping strike is disastrous.

 

[Ahmed216]

Oye bowler taang pe de uski. This is beyond embarassing

 

[Usman Chadda]

Pakistan has a non-existent middle-order in this series. Good experimentation though, Mo Wasim might aswell finish the careers of Talat, Iftikhar and Khushdil before the WC.

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Leg side hack Khushdil is stuck because of everything on outside off.

You see why he keeps scoring in domestic? Our domestic low IQ bowlers keep feeding him on middle/leg stump

 

[Deewana Mastana]

This guy cant play anything going away from him.

At least Shamsi didn't pick him

 

[castortroy]

That should be the game.

Congrats SA

 

[sindhiboy]

Khushdil auditioning for a role in the test team team

 

[Titan24]

Khushdil playing a gem here, just 20 odd balls remaining for a draw

 

[Bewal Express]

Khushdil gets Riz out.

 

[Heisenberg111]

Pak will score 130 here.

 

[ARK Rafay]

So waiting for Shaheen to maybe connect a couple. Reach to 140 somehow

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Rizwan gone

Game over Pakistan?

 

[imshally81]

Out..
RIZWAN gone...
Khushdil is responsible...

 

[PakPremi]

Faheem is easily the third bes batsman in this team.
Should have been promoted

I have my doubts about his T20 batting. When playing Imad, Shadab are good.

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Pakistan has a non-existent middle-order in this series. Good experimentation though, Mo Wasim might aswell finish the careers of Talat, Iftikhar and Khushdil before the WC.

Pakistani fans will also realize how important Shadab and Imad are. They cover quite a bit of our batting after over 10.

 

[Rana]

Lol Watch khusdhil dot ball everything against Shamsi

Ridiculous selection

 

[Shafi]

120 Maximum!!!

 

[Shaddy86]

This is ridiculous, his lack of strike has caused a wicket. Expect khushdil to be dropped for a long time.

 

[PerfectionPersonified]

i think Khudil, Ifti chacha and talat dont belong to International cricket. Pakistan in serious problem.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Fifth day in progress for Khushdil. Big boy is auditioning for a role in the Test team.

 

[MHN1293]

What i hate most is that kushdil cant even get rizwan on strike let alone score at a good rate.

 

[castortroy]

If pak lose the series tomorrow at home against SA B team then questions need to be asked

 

[Extreme Pace]

That was Khusdil's wicket.

 

[imshally81]

Misbah & Waqar need to go ASAP..

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-partner="tweetdeck"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Uninspiring batting from Pakistan (apart from Rizwan).

[Ucdkee]

Wicket courtesy khushdil's versatile batting

 

[MRSN]

inevitable. too much on a plate to handle.

 

[shariqnoor]

The other embarrassing thing about this team is that none of them even have the ability to ateast rotate the strike and give it to Rizwan.

And ultimately this will happen in T20 when the set batsman is starved of the strike

 

[msb314]

Rizwan has been poor too..

 

[Heisenberg111]

Only Hafeez can save Pak at the T20 WC.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need big hits here.

 

[PerfectionPersonified]

pressure and rizwan goes. absolultey shocking stuff from chacha ifiti, talat and now khushdil

 

[Titan24]

I am not sure how useful would be pace of Rauf here, cutters and slower ones are doing better than pace on the ball

 

[ARK Rafay]

So as I see it currently. After the top 3. Everyone looks super insecure, uninspiring and timid.

 

[angrypathan]

Pakistan has a non-existent middle-order in this series. Good experimentation though, Mo Wasim might aswell finish the careers of Talat, Iftikhar and Khushdil before the WC.

Hafeez will inevitably slot back in. The problem is, who else? I hope the likes of Azam Khan, Rohail Nazir and Danish Aziz show good form in the PSL. The cupboard looks pretty bare at the moment.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Pretorius man of the match?!

 

[jeeteshssaxena]

I have my doubts about his T20 batting. When playing Imad, Shadab are good.

Shadab isn't a hitter. Faheem is.
Imad is good.

 

[JibranAnsari]

rizwan wasnt doing much either , 21 runs in his last 23 deliveries.

 

[Rana]

If pak lose the series tomorrow at home against SA B team then questions need to be asked

Lol They will be asked

They will be answered

Nothing will happen

Hum khush, tum khush, hum sab khush

 

[IMMY69]

150 on this slow spinning wicket would probably have been enough but our batters are just too stupid to figure that out...

Instead they forget about taking singles and just try to hit it out of the park.

Low IQ

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Babar Azam
M Rizwan
Haider Ali
M Hafeez
S Malik
Asif Ali
Shadab
Imad
Faheem


This will be our batting @ World T20. Back to the days of Mickey.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Misbah & Waqar need to go ASAP..

Never happening

 

[PakPremi]

So series would be 1-1 after the match, hopefully now they would realise Ifti and Khushdil are no good at international level. I maybe being harsh with Khushdil as he has not played enough to be judged.

 

[imshally81]

i think Khudil, Ifti chacha and talat dont belong to International cricket. Pakistan in serious problem.

But Misbah thought they are Bairstow, Williamson & Steven smith..

 

[Usman Chadda]

The other embarrassing thing about this team is that none of them even have the ability to ateast rotate the strike and give it to Rizwan.

And ultimately this will happen in T20 when the set batsman is starved of the strike

We have seen enough of Khushdil to see that he will never be international quality. This is a good ploy on the selector’s part to eliminate all these social media warriors who keep calling for Talats, Iftikhars and Khushdils.

 

[AAli98]

Smart batting by Kushdil. Has been in filthy form. So understandably going back to A list cricket and taking his time to play himself back to form!!! Oh sorry it’s not A class cricket it’s 20/20zzz

 

[Heisenberg111]

Please someone get Khushdil out.

 

[castortroy]

Where is imad?

 

[Rana]

Its amazing how you take out the Leg side and Rizwan is back to who we know he is

 

[Nasty Naz]

Pakistan deserve this for having such a poor and horrific batting approach.

Would hope Talat/Iftikhar/Khushdil all get dropped after this game.

 

[PakPremi]

It's shame Nawaz is going to come before Usman.

 

[PerfectionPersonified]

absolutley shocking batting to save their career, selfish ...........

 

[IMMY69]

Hat is wrong with these brainless idiots?

Wicket is poor, look to rotate

 

[UzmanBeast]

I hope all the posters have realized that Haider, Hussain, and the likes of Khushdil are not options for the team.

Malik, Hafeez, and Asif are better options.

Since we have Haris Rauf the scattergun, don't expect to win this match at all.

A horrid outing for our team.

 

[Asif321]

Why Danish Aziz is not playing

 

[Titan24]

Shadab isn't a hitter. Faheem is.
Imad is good.

Faheem is more of a timer than a hitter. Though Pak desperately wants him to be a hitter

 

[shariqnoor]

Haris Rauf and Shaheen alone will give 75 runs.

 

[nextover666666]

Rizwan is the only batsman that looked solid this series the rest the last said the better

 

[Nado_]

The likes of Ifthikhar, Kushdil and Talat have how showed many times they are not cut out for this level, whenever have you seen them on top of an international bowler or look even comfortable at the crease?

It is what it is, take a hit on fitness at least for T20s and just select Sharjeel and Azam Khan. Add Hafeez, Malik, Imad and Shadab back in the mix then there’s your complete squad for World Cup.

 

[Ozeirk]

Khusdil, Talat and Haider haven't really learned with their t20 run. How long do you think they be part of the team?

 

[Third Man]

150 on this slow spinning wicket would probably have been enough but our batters are just too stupid to figure that out...

Instead they forget about taking singles and just try to hit it out of the park.

Low IQ

Expecting smart batting from a tennis-ball hack like Khushdil is hoping for a bit too much.

This is completely embarrassing from Pakistan. Is this management and the selector blind? Don't they see that none of Khushdil, Iftikhar and Talat are good enough and never will be?

 

[DeadBall]

If HAris bowls upfront this match should be over in the PP.

 

[PakPremi]

Its amazing how you take out the Leg side and Rizwan is back to who we know he is

He scored plenty off side and straight what you want him to do score century every inning.

 

[Justcrazy]

103.5

Pakistan need 140 here

This will be our batting @ World T20. Back to the days of Mickey.

So basically Misbah has wasted many games trying out stuff while it was this line up from the beginning since Mickey/Sarfraz days.

 

[PerfectionPersonified]

i have said this beforem khushdil is leg side hack . you bowl him on offside and he is done. not sure why is he been prefered over proper players like rohail

 

[Usman Chadda]

Khushdil reminding me of Fawad Alam’s masterpiece against Australia in 2014. Although Fawad was facing bowling attack which had the likes of Starc and Cummins.

 

[UzmanBeast]

Rashid Latif brought up a very valid point.

If Pakistan wins 3 - 0, and tries only 1 new player, and SAF try 6 players, SAF are the ones who really won.

We should be playing our B team, without regular candidates to see who steps up and bats well.

Against another country's B team, we should play out own B team, to develop new players.

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Boom Boom Faheem on!

 

[Heisenberg111]

Only Faheem can hit sixes now.

 

[imshally81]

6666

 

[Omer2002]

The truth is pak are a v v poor team ...

 

[Hyder]

So many cries for rizwan having low sr BUT THE TRUTH IS THESE HACKS AINT CAPABLE OF THAT TOO

 

[Rana]

Faheem, one of the few OG's in this side

 

[Justcrazy]

SIXXXX

Faheem klusner sends that outside

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

This is why Pakistan needs Malik and Hafeez at the World Cup. These domestic kings are international failures. And they will sink us at the World Cup.

Both Talat and Khushdil played criminal innings and should be dropped for good after this. Iftikhar came in at a tough spot and was trying to preserve wickets which is why his innings is somewhat forgivable but not the other two

 

[Usman Chadda]

13 balls for 6 runs, coming in with five overs to go. Retire ho ke banda waapis chala jata hai sharam ke maray

 

[Heisenberg111]

OMG this Kushdil is really clueless.

 

[MRSN]

Selfish innings from Khushdil Shah and Iftikhar Ahmed in the 2nd T20I vs South Africa

Iftikhar being so called power hitter was playing like it was middle of one day game with few batsmen to come and Khushdil as well playing for his innigs rather than what the team needed. Absolutely embarrassing to see this at this level.
