Pakistan v South Africa | 3rd T20I | Lahore | February 14, 2021 | South Africa Innings

[Gullycricket]

Is Zahid chewing paan or a whole pack of gum?

You are on fire today

 

[Rana]

This Zahid Mahmood guy looks sick! IPL standard leggie

 

[NeVerMind]

Saffers imploding

 

[OldWarHorse]

A googly from Qadir, that was well... too easy

 

[imshally81]

Rashid Riaz gets 2 wrong decisions lol.

Slightly difficult to read leg spinner ball

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

This game is basically over before it's started. Not even going to see how our guys get on with the bat unless there's a partnership of some sort.

 

[Markhor]

Wow what a shambles !

48-6.

 

[lahoriyah1234]

Well I said last night Pakistan will win the series. But Batting and Power hitters are required to Win the The WC.

Hafeez is the only power hitter we have.

 

[shamaan]

Poor shot in context of the game

 

[Rana]

Whos bagged Zahid in PSL???

 

[SensiblePakFan]

Is Zahid chewing paan or a whole pack of gum?

Inspired from the batting coach

 

[imshally81]

Usman strikes

 

[Green Patriot]

South Africa crumbling. Wonderful bowling by the leggies. Dont let them rebuild.

 

[Energy]

Well I for one am desperate to see him to do well because I want someone to step up and end Shadab’s international career.

Shadab will masquerade behind his leadership cum clown antics and play out a long career. It's enough to buy time in Pakistan cricket.

 

[Gullycricket]

This is the spin bowling combo for WC T20 along with maddy

 

[lahoriyah1234]

Zahid action is pretty much like rashid khan. Did Rashid khan copied him.

 

[SensiblePakFan]

Whos bagged Zahid in PSL???

Quetta

 

[imshally81]

We have lot leg spinners... We need one good offie...

 

[Titan24]

This looks like a recap of 2018 ODI series of SA when Chahal and Kuldeep ripped through them

 

[shamaan]

This is the spin bowling combo for WC T20 along with maddy

Zahid should have played the last game to

 

[NeVerMind]

South Africa crumbling. Wonderful bowling by the leggies. Dont let them rebuild.

Don't forget Nawaz...he started the slide....

 

[Bewal Express]

Lets see Qadir bowl googlies to left handers from around the wicket. This combined with his big spin will make it a totally different proposition

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Zahid Mahmood doing well could be the end of Yasir Shah in tests. He has a good googly!

He has toiled hard at domestic. Always been a performer.

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

South Africa crumbling. Wonderful bowling by the leggies. Dont let them rebuild.

No man, I want to see some batting.

 

[Rana]

Quetta

Balle Balle

 

[cricfan967]

This is what happens when you dont have Haris Rauf bowling garbage at the other end releasing all the pressure

 

[Energy]

Hopefully Miller can smoke a few clean, long, sixes. He's not had a good series.

 

[Mamoon]

Pakistan should play 3 spinners in South Africa in the ODI and T20s as well, even if it is against a full-strength South Africa.

 

[Titan24]

Poor shot in context of the game

SA is in panic mode as they know they have to bowl second under dew so need a par total to have reasonable chance. However, against Pak they should just try to get something on the board and hope Pak makes a mess

 

[TeymurBlake]

South Africa just need to build a partnership until the 15 over where they can smack the pacers.

 

[90MPH]

SA look lost and confused now, totally collapsing. Poor gameplan against spin, just hitting across the line aimlessly.

They need 120 at a minimum which they will still most likely lose but at least it gives them something.

 

[Mamoon]

Zahid Mahmood doing well could be the end of Yasir Shah in tests. He has a good googly!

He has toiled hard at domestic. Always been a performer.

His FC record is very poor. Might be a late bloomer.

 

[imshally81]

Balle Balle

Hopefully.. Our agreement with sky sports is out of danger. .

 

[IMMY69]

I want to see Zahid really turn his leggie...
So far just googlies

 

[Adnan_Ilyas]

Could apply to BCCI for a job as an umpire. You would fit right in.

Hahahhaha

 

[TeymurBlake]

South Africa do struggle against spinners.

But I wouldn't be surprised to see Pakistan batsman struggle against Shamsi.

 

[Titan24]

Pakistan should play 3 spinners in South Africa in the ODI and T20s as well, even if it is against a full-strength South Africa.

Yes, two leggies atleast wont be a bad option considering what happened when India toured SA in 2018 and played 6 ODis.

 

[shamaan]

SA is in panic mode as they know they have to bowl second under dew so need a par total to have reasonable chance. However, against Pak they should just try to get something on the board and hope Pak makes a mess

Defonitely they need 130 to make a game out of it

 

[Rana]

Very similar style to that Fawad guy from Australia

 

[NeVerMind]

Hope the Saffers get a decent score so we can see a proper chase

 

[Saj]

Some of the worst batting you will ever see.

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

Pakistan should play 3 spinners in South Africa in the ODI and T20s as well, even if it is against a full-strength South Africa.

Definitely, they don't look comfortable at all against spin.

 

[Rana]

Hopefully.. Our agreement with sky sports is out of danger. .

Early days

 

[IMMY69]

That last one spun

 

[NeVerMind]

Rameez jumping on the bandwagon and asking why Pak didn't play the extra leg spinner yesterday

 

[Titan24]

Miller is the key here

 

[Rana]

Zahid and Rashid Khan are probably the same age

 

[imshally81]

Some of the worst batting you will ever see.

Some good bowling too....

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

I want to see Zahid really turn his leggie...
So far just googlies

Just ripped one really well there...

 

[TeymurBlake]

There you go South Africa that's how you do it. Negate the spin and whack it.

 

[Firebat]

It's T20, sixes happen. Terrific over once again still

 

[Rana]

uff pretorious!

Where is Rameez putting sharp emphasis on such names?

PRe Toww Rius

 

[Mamoon]

Zahid might be genuinely 32. He could have been listed as a 27-28 year old and it would have been believable.

There is no way he is only 2 years younger than Nauman and 2 years older than Iftikhar.

 

[imshally81]

666

 

[shamaan]

Beauty from zahid

 

[Titan24]

Good hit this. Nothing much wrong with the ball

 

[Firebat]

Hoping for a little fightback from these 2. Want to see some batting, don't want to chase 90

 

[NeVerMind]

Qadir getting some serious turn

 

[Titan24]

Miller coming into play

 

[Omer2002]

Saffers have 6 out yet they still have 2 very good batters on crease how is that

 

[m.shah]

Zahid and Rashid Khan are probably the same age

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

His FC record is very poor. Might be a late bloomer.

Could be yes. Yasir also debuted late.

Ever since this new set up Zahid has done well and been in the reckoning.

I would rather have an experienced mature guy like Zahid than a rookie like Usman who is inconsistent.

 

[Firebat]

What are the rules for no-ball with regard to how wide of the crease you can bowl? Qadir surely pushing the limits

 

[Bewal Express]

UA bowl the googly

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

Can't see SA reaching 100 sadly. Not going to be much of a game.

 

[Markhor]

Zahid averaged 101 in the QEA Trophy in 2019, though did much better this season.

Wouldn't rush him into Test cricket yet.

 

[Omer2002]

Btw if no due comes.we have no chance against shamzi

 

[Rana]

Usman Qadir too many leonardo di capreo dramey!

 

[AAli98]

Zahid Mahmood. Future of Pak spin bowling. Good to see youngsters coming through...

 

[Mamoon]

Qadir, Zahid and Nawaz have created a headache for Misbah, Babar and PowerPoint.

It will be interesting to see how they go forward from here. Do they immediately drop all of them to accommodate Shadab or Imad or not.

The duopoly of those two has been challenged for the first time in 4 years.

 

[PakPremi]

Yeah, let’s praise Usman for not deliberately dropping the catch because Zahid is a leg-spinner.

Jesus

I did not say deliberately I meant after catching making sure it does not fall out of his hand as he landed on the ground, you can see the extra effort.

 

[nextover666666]

Look at difference when u have two proper spinners playing...nothing agaisnt imad and shadab i like them to but cant have both playing together in the future

Really good bowling.by qadir and zahid so far

 

[NeVerMind]

Btw if no due comes.we have no chance against shamzi

We can play him out as won't be chasing too a high a score

PowerPoint lmao Mamoon )

 

[Bewal Express]

Can't see SA reaching 100 sadly. Not going to be much of a game.

But if that happens, what happens to the thread on MW. Where will all the hater go.

 

[shariqnoor]

Still need to get Miller and Pretorius. These guys get stuck in and we can see 140.

 

[Baigel]

Ramiz Raja genuinely has no cricketing IQ

'Miller is standing on the off stump to locate the ball and negate the length'

what?

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

Btw if no due comes.we have no chance against shamzi

We'll be chasing 100 if not less, I wouldn't be panicking just yet.

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Good addition by the way by M Wasim.

Misbah would have ignored him as usual giving Qadir all the confidence.

Better bowlers but not with the bat...depends if you want to sacrifice the already fragile batting we have for improved bowling
