[mindless slogging]

NOW is the ideal time to take the PPlay IMO. 12 overs left, wickets in hand, batsmen in......

 

[iHammad]

Are you watching the game or just imagining like me?

I know they would be awesome cut shots because he is an awesome batsmen! Im just imagining

 

[adarsh_bang]

why do they keep calling thushara as mirando ??? his shirt also says mirando

 

[Boi]

Both of these two batsmen are in. One of them needs to take charge now and throw caution to the wind.

 

[Wassixpakistani]

yes mostly thanks to the lahore dynamite. Misbah saab should take some responsibility now.

Yar Misbah saab is doing the best he can .

[mindless slogging]

Only 12 of Umar's 40 runs have come via the boundary. Excellent rotation and placement. Minimal risk and great reward.

What I've heard is that the great players are the best at rotating the strike. (even tho he couldn't run, his placement was exquisite)
