I remember when Pakistani batsmen used to take singles. :jm
 
So we have been begging for Umar Akmal to be sent 1 down but they never do. Umer Amin has done nothing of relevance so far but he is already promoted up the order ?

Exactly my thoughts when I saw him striding to the crease.
 
Hafeez batting like a tailender. Going back to a full one.
 
Has the nerve to ask for new gloves. Shows how cocky and arrogant this person is. Considers himself a top order batsman, after getting dropped from the test squad he has the cheek to say he is "prepared" to bat lower as if he is the next best thing after sliced bread.
 
Damn , that wasn't out :( Big Loss, That was our main wicket. Dale Steyn must be feeling relieved.
 
After a good start, two new batsmen quickly at the crease.
 
Elaborate...

Has a wicket high of 3, average of 34, all he does is have a low economy. I would rather have Babar, Raza Hasan or Rehman whom are all better bowlers. If Hafeez is here as an allrounder, today is a good example of how he is a tailender at best.
 
Looked good enough to me. Was at absolutely garbage ball too, any other opener in the world would have smashed it for 4. Hafeez instead picks out the fielder.

Last 2 overs - 2 runs, 2 wickets.

Welcome back Pakistani batting. For a minute, Misbah would have thought "Woah, I dont have to save the team from embarrassing themselves!!"

Our only batsman is here :misbah
 
Damn the last time Hafeez was in good form Mominul was probably in his diapers

100% agreed except the "Today" part. he has been a Tailender in Tests and ODIs for well over a year now. Only in 20/20 with the absolutely most dead track can he be useful with the bat.
 
CLH should have put both of those away, beaten off the pitch.
