[Mir jibran]

nowadays Sidhu pa ji do commentary? because whenever i tuned, i listened the hilarious commentary of Akash chopra.

nope sidhu is not commentating for them anymore

 

[#GreenRoars]

is it started raining or something with my eyes?

conditions are dark.. No rain so far, and rain is expected at 18 local time.
conditions will remain the same through out the match

 

[nads_rocks]

Well I guess Shahzad is going for the century then because when he gets to 50 he goes straight to century so fingers crossed he races to the next 50.

 

[Aloo Chaat]

Harris has no energy/power

 

[#GreenRoars]

is it started raining or something with my eyes?

Going to UNI will try to see Pak bowling. take care sir

 

[Slog]

is it just my tv settings or are there really dark crowds

 

[Bilal7]

These guys need to start scoring at a run a ball from here on out. Look at how Amla and Faf played in this same period against a better team.

 

[IAJ]

Easy Haris

 

[Strike Rate]

I hope these guys knows about it and have a plan

 

[imshally81]

Maiden over in progress.. Fishy [emoji12]

 

[Ottoman]

Problem for Harris in 30's, he has again bogged down. single after 5 balls.

 

[nads_rocks]

Where are the boundariesssssss

 

[Strike Rate]

Going to UNI will try to see Pak bowling. take care sir

takecare bro see u have a nice time

 

[Arsal_AK]

Haris getting stuck.

 

[LegendInzi]

Haris Sohail has only one shot to fetch runs...cut to the third man

 

[ViciousMachine]

Great start, so do not want to take anything away from that. But Haris, last 20 balls, 8 runs. No reason to be scoring at under 3 an over at this stage....

 

[Hamza_]

In sha Allah rain will not interfere

 

[#GreenRoars]

I hope these guys knows about it and have a plan

expecting intelligence from our team?
joking na?

 

[Watsupdoc]

Harris getting bogged down... Might throw it away.

 

[Strike Rate]

If we are to score 350 today these guys have to get 200 in 35 overs without losing any wicket

 

[Aloo Chaat]

itni slow batting

 

[Strike Rate]

expecting intelligence from our team?
joking na?

we have waqar the legendary coach with all the tricks and tactics in his bag

 

[axl100mph]

Haris is nothing special. He too plays them straigjt to the fielders

 

[nads_rocks]

Both batsman in their 40s, what are they waiting for

 

[Bilsher007]

By 30th over Pakistan should aim to get to 160/170 and by 40th over should add 100 runs more provided enough wickets are in hand.

 

[Arsal_AK]

 

[nads_rocks]

finally A

 

[JibranAnsari]

we will be lucky to score 270.

mediocre batting. Too many dot deliveries played.

 

[Aloo Chaat]

97/1 after 21

 

[asifp]

Harris Sohail was 30 of 30. And he is now 38 of 51. shows what is wrong with Pakistan batting.

they are a bunch of scared cats. treat UAE like it is UAE

 

[Aloo Chaat]

We need to go at 10 an over now

 

[ddss]

Sup, boys playing well. Has there been any missed chances/ dropped catches so far?

 

[asifp]

By 30th over Pakistan should aim to get to 160/170 and by 40th over should add 100 runs more provided enough wickets are in hand.

AT this rate by the 30th over we ill be lukcy to have 135

 

[IAJ]

Good over for Pakistan, 8 runs.

 

[nads_rocks]

I sense a wicket falling soon

 

[JibranAnsari]

37 dot deliveries ut of 60 by shehzad.

poor stuff against the minnows.

 

[Bilal7]

Should send Umar Akmal in after this and ask him to play his natural game. We need to up the RR.

 

[LegendInzi]

Haris got only one shot in the book....cut to the third man. Can't find any gaps otherwise.

Dhoni was quick to pounce on this and choked that by installing a deep slip when Ashwin was on. Ended up choking him completely and eventually gifting the wicket.

 

[MoinHaroon]

we will be lucky to score 270.

mediocre batting. Too many dot deliveries played.

320 on the cards if they do not loose wickets for 10 more overs

 

[Bilsher007]

is it just my tv settings or are there really dark crowds

Dark clouds definitely.

 

[rhony]

Yaar.. stop playing for your 50. Need atleast 5 runs an over until 30 overs

 

[H2O1]

Sup, boys playing well. Has there been any missed chances/ dropped catches so far?

2 drops of shehzad

Extremely selfish game here by the Pakistani batsmen

Who here thinks they are playing for their position rather than win big to make up for the negative NRR as this is the only team they can realistically make it up against

 

[Bilal7]

To be fair, both need a good score here to feel confident of their place in the team. They will attack after getting to 50.

 

[Aloo Chaat]

itne slow

I think he will be better against spin with older ball once set

 

[Madplayer]

haris needs to score a 100 today. he has looked very good. a chanceless innings unlike shehzad's

 

[nads_rocks]

Seriously 98-1 in 21.1 overs against UAE isnt good enough. This team is a shambles. Both batsman well set in their 40s and no intent to up the rate from either of them. No rotation, over reliant on boundaries is what results in pressure and pressure = wickets. If they can't play positive cricket against weak teams like UAE what chances do they have against South Africa and Ireland. This team is pathetic, the worst in a World Cup Pakistan has ever produced.

 

[Point Black]

What do you want? Pakistani fans are always complaining.

 

[Strike Rate]

168 balls left can they score 220 runs in it and make the total 320

 

[Aloo Chaat]

10-12 an over required seriously.

 

[Couch Cricketer]

No they are playing themselves in we need them in form.

 

[MoinHaroon]

Dressing room looks relaxed now, good

 

[Mir jibran]

one of these 2 should get a ton

 

[GreenRage]

And than they say don't say shehzad is a disgrace to cricket if he isn't a disgrace what is he?

 

[Sadevdesai]

Hope we see UAE in the WC Final !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Bilsher007]

This is a batting track and pakistan SHOULD SCORE 350 plus !

 

[Abdullah]

350 on the cards. Why is afridi not padded up. Last 20 overs we can score 200 vs these if these 2 r there

 

[coy0607]

I dont think you understand- this batting just isn't good enough

These guys are on par with Zim, Ire batting- lower your expectations

 

[JibranAnsari]

These two batsmen are extremely limited.

 

[Arsal_AK]

Akmal next??

 

[PennOne]

Play to win looking at the long term picture in the World Cup rather than play yourself into form for post world cup. This win if it's close is of no use if they don't win big. This is the only team they can win big against. Go big or go home

 

[blackanhyellow]

lol the name sohaib is a tongue twister...

 

[nads_rocks]

If Misbah comes in today he has no excuse to start off slowly because there has been no collapse so I would send in Umar Akmal then Maqsood and then Misbah followed by the tail.

 

[Aloo Chaat]

harris sucks against spinners

 

[H2O1]

Lol , commentators not interseted to discuss about cricket lol

Harris Sohail has made 11 of his last 25 balls, just shows the menatlity of this team and their batting.

Shame on them.

 

[amomin]

Too selfish. Its dumb

 

[Raj-MSDian]

I think they are playing wonderfully well. Fake Kohli turning into Real Shehzad here.

 

[ddss]

100 up

 

[Watsupdoc]

Shehzad looking twitchy.

 

[Bilsher007]

I would like both shezhad and haris to score big tons and build enormous confidence ahead for south africa encounter.

 

[asifp]

YAAR for the love of GOd, this is UAE. Treat them like that.

 

[Saeed]

Who is going to tuk the most before getting his selfish 50?

 

[OmaIR1]

Shehad is a selfish player. Harris is horrible against spin.

 

[nads_rocks]

Selfish 50 by Shahzad, don't know why he is getting an applause.

 

[Watsupdoc]

50 for Shehzad. Should look to open up now.

 

[Arsal_AK]

50 for Shehzad.

Good for him going into the SA game.

 

[PennOne]

Pakistan playing UAE as if they are Australia. This is pathetic. Maybe I should accept that pakistan does not have the talent or belief anymore to win big

 

[asifp]

Harris is being pathetic here. Super selfish.

he is slowing down instead of getting a move on
