Pakistan v South Africa | 5th ODI | Sharjah | 11/11/2013 | Pakistan Innings

[iRfaN_LA]

game over. Series lost 4-1, this was a crushing defeat.

 

[JibranAnsari]

All over! Maqsood goes as well.

 

[battler]

maxy out!

 

[MJcricket]

Did Pak fans expect this type of phainty in UAE?

 

[shahidafridi123]

Duminy's brilliant loopy off-spinners turning out to be too hot to handle for the Pakistani batsmen.

 

[iRfaN_LA]

He should have slogged in PP.

 

[Red Devil]

Maxi virtually did the exact same thing as Afridi.

 

[Kianig89]

Well played Maqsood he knew its a lost cause now

 

[Haroon786]

Do we deserve this every match ?

 

[Justcrazy]

130 / 7

 

[iRfaN_LA]

Duminy's brilliant loopy off-spinners turning out to be too hot to handle for the Pakistani batsmen.

another bowler we made to look unplayable.

 

[SM1989]

Support India. Pakistan are losers!!!

 

[dhump]

Oh come on maqsood what was the point of trying winning this just could have scored as many runs as possible. Now our selectors and Misbah may drop him after 2-3 failiures in favor of Malik,Amin or Hafeez

 

[Kianig89]

Ajmal to come hope the misery ends soon

 

[Robbie]

Every time Pakistan plays its natural that they are 150/5 atleast. When was the last time they were 200/3 like other team normally score. I am not talking about this series only.

 

[saiyan0312]

Ajmal and tanvir... time to get batting practice.

 

[Kianig89]

another day another game another defeat

 

[Justcrazy]

Duminy again getting wickets

 

[shahidafridi123]

another bowler we made to look unplayable.

Marcus North is another one of them...........We made Shane Watson look like Imran Khan

 

[10sion]

Asia cup against India? 200/0 I think...when hafeez and Jamshed scored centuries.

 

[Kianig89]

Bazid lamenting hafeez and rightly so

 

[Dawud]

Poor from Afridi. If you can't play the short ball then avoid it. No point taking him to South Africa as his bowling will not be effective there.

 

[Justcrazy]

please bat out 50 overs

 

[saiyan0312]

I really hope he wont be dropped soon.

 

[Kianig89]

Apart from Misbah Ajmal Irfan Shehzad Maqsood the rest of the 6 players were below par the whole series

 

[saiyan0312]

ajmal goes

 

[Naheem]

please bat out 50 overs

they cant

 

[Sledger]

Ajmal about a day late on that.

 

[Kianig89]

With Afridi at 7 its a recipe for disaster needs to rethink

 

[Naheem]

ajju gone

 

[dirk diggler]

well done ajmal survived 600% more than last innings, a vast improvement

 

[Kianig89]

Thanks Ajmal gone lets finish it quickly

 

[Robbie]

Asia cup against India? 200/0 I think...when hafeez and Jamshed scored centuries.

Really 10sion??

 

[Red Devil]

Only positive from this series is that we discovered a real gem in Maxy

 

[mithun_minhas]

Parnell getting some cheap tailender wickets.

First Afridi and now Ajmal.

 

[Naheem]

pak trashed by sa

 

[Justcrazy]

 

[m.shah]

another day another game another defeat....
Another batting collapse

 

[Naheem]

so 7-1 is coming

 

[Kianig89]

138/8 wow we are crap by long distance take Sohaib's 53 out and its 85-7

 

[10sion]

Pakistan ODI team came to UAE 4 - 1 win?

 

[Naheem]

bach gya

 

[Vitaly]

Every time Pakistan plays its natural that they are 150/5 atleast. When was the last time they were 200/3 like other team normally score. I am not talking about this series only.

224/1 in Asia Cup vs India

[Kianig89]

last 15 balls 6 runs 3 wickets its a laughing stock

 

[GreenTigers]

All the blame for the failure of pak team goes to Misbah and Hafeez. Their friendship is causing pakistan cricket big time and it is such a shame no one is stopping them. Hafeez is a total failure at this level. Pak team for next SA and SL series should be like this.

1. Ahmed
2. Sharjeel/Jamshed
3. Maqsood
4. Fawad
5. Misbah
6. Razzaq
7. U.Akmal
8. Afridi
9. Junaid
10. Irfan
11. Saeed

No room for the professor.

 

[Justcrazy]

Very Very dissappointing , making same mistakes again and again.

 

[Kianig89]

Bazid criticizing domestic cricket and rightly so what are PTV and State Bank doing in FC cricket

 

[dirk diggler]

if Pak ever score 250+ again that day should be marked annually as a national holiday

 

[Nuekboi]

Is Misbah trying to shame Junaid by sending Irfan ahead of him?

 

[PakGirl!]

How terribly will we loose..:/

11. Saeed

No room for professor.

But there's room for Jamshed with an average of 0.5 this series?
Give me a break.

 

[Hamza_]

When you have a tail ender coming at 7 how can you win matches? Shehzad Cant Average 35+ in List A so why expect him to do wonders in International which is considered tougher? Hafeez is clueless and should not bat higher then 8 or 7. Im gutted that Nasir was dropped for hafeez. Umar Amin is going nowhere get Haris in with better stats, Sohail Tanvir with 13 Average coming at 8 and contributing nothing with bowl i'm sorry to say batting is very weak.

Tail starts from No.7!

http://www.espncricinfo.com/asia-cup-2012/engine/current/match/535798.html

Duh!! it was not a query.
I was just saying about the expectation fans have from pak batting

 

[10sion]

Really 10sion??

224/0

And then lose the match too!

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan require another 138 runs with 2 wickets and 18.0 overs remaining

 

[Mamoon]

How terribly will we loose..:/

Hoping for 150 now

 

[Dawud]

I would bring Younis in so he can hopefully at least help the team to bat out 50 overs. We need Younis and Misbah in the middle order and give them both an anchor role. In an ideal world you would have attacking players but we havn't got anyone. Maqsood looks a good find but we'll see how he copes in South Africa on bouncy pitches. Hafeez needs to be dropped ASAP.

 

[steelo green]

This non-ability to take singles from Hafeez, Afridi, Misbah, Amin, Shafiq is destroying our team

 

[Justcrazy]

The batting is really weak. On top of that is sitting like a leech.

 

[Sledger]

Irfan gone.

 

[Moosa]

 

[PakGirl!]

Poor Irfan..

 

[GreenTigers]

Tail starts from No.7!

If you're top 6 can't make run then forget about winning games. U.Akmal can make quick 20's or 30's and this is what can expect from a slogger.

 

[Sledger]

Funny how you ask them to chase and they're 131-9, I'm sure they'd get higher just by mentally believing they're setting a total.

 

[Justcrazy]

 

[GreenTigers]

But there's room for Jamshed with an average of 0.5 this series?
Give me a break.

This is why I said Sharjeel or Jamshed.

 

[Moosa]

Keep Calm ATG Junaid in

 

[Justcrazy]

133 / 9

 

[dirk diggler]

this team needs an exorcism, somones done some voodoo hoodoo sh it over them

 

[Boi]

lol Keppler trying to worsen our side further by asking for YK recall

 

[Indiafan]

Afridi did ok, Scored more than 3 senior top batsmen.

Don't be so modest, he deserves at least a MoM for that innings no matter who wins

 

[PakGirl!]

We have not been able to bat out 50 overs in any match of this series..
*epic facepalm through the brain*

 

[EarthBoltX]

This is why I said Sharjeel or Jamshed.

Sharjeel or Hafeez, I say.

Hafeez can bowl and even if he averages 10 with the bat, it's better than 0.5

 

[saiyan0312]

expect a useless twenty and tanvir will be selected again for his batting capabilities.

 

[Mian Hassan]

stop bigging Maqsood so much.. he has only played 2 games.. he looks good because the others are so bad..
Let him play 20 games atleast before passing any judgement

 

[Indiafan]

The batting is really weak. On top of that is sitting like a leech.

You actually have the gall to say that about Misbah despite the current state of your batting?

 

[Sledger]

Tanvir now making up for his last over.

 

[Justcrazy]

"Have never seen Junaid bat. It will be pretty interesting to see a batsman worst than Irfan. It's like making a team of No. 11 batsman and Junaid will still bat at No 11"

 

[Big Mac]

That was a pretty good sweep shot from Tanvir
