Pakistan v West Indies | 1st ODI | Sharjah | Sep 30, 2016 | Pakistan innings

[MenInG]

And half hour to the toss now - hope Azhar Ali can continue where he left off in England....

 

[Haroon786]

Will be interesting to see how many quick Pakistan will play in this match considering how much the WI struggled against spin in the IT20s.

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

Another educative test for our management, let's see if they will drop Hasan Ali, who was our best bowler against England, on the basis of his T20I performances, lol

Wahab comes in for Gul, the only change from the last ODI, so Hassan is playing

 

[mz123]

rizwan is playing !

 

[Mir jibran]

azhar just said wahab comes for umar gul
as far as i remember gul was not playing last odi against eng

 

[mz123]

pak bat first

 

[mz123]

he was

 

[JibranAnsari]

Wahab riaz

When will we get rid of this fake Johnson

 

[ask_analyse_act]

great to see UA being benched... Rizwan richly deserves the chance for winning the game and remaining unbeaten in the last ODI in england.. Rambo with his usual chest thumping UA and trying to bring down Rizwan got a befitting reply from Waqar...

 

[Mir jibran]

he was

oh ya he was my bad
but happy that rizwan has been continued

what did waqar say ?

 

[ask_analyse_act]

should have gone with sohail khan for the newball instead of Wahab riaz... Wahab is useful only with the old ball which is 50 overs old, with two new balls he is hardly of any use...

Please change the title to West Indies innings instead of Pakistan innings.
Thanks

 

[ask_analyse_act]

what did waqar say ?

Rameez : Rizwan at no.4 does he really have the mettle to be a no.4 middle order batsman, not in the runs chart these days

Waqar: well he is in & out of the side .. he is not in the runs chart because he is not given a series of regular chances.. he is a very good inclusion for the shorter formats quick between the wickets, excellent fielding skills also for the T20. Rizwan richly deserves the chance for winning the game and remaining unbeaten in the last ODI in england..

 

[Haroon786]

Pakistan team: Azhar Ali *, Sharjeel Khan, Babar Azam, Mohammad Rizwan, Shoaib Malik, Sarfraz Ahmed +, Mohammad Nawaz (3), Imad Wasim, Wahab Riaz, Mohammad Amir, Hasan Ali.

rameez and his love for akmal fewwwwww....
but i am glad they persisted with rizwan

 

[Deception]

Big test for Mohammed Rizwan i hope he performs good to see Umar Akmal benched.

 

[Rayyman]

Good lineup from both Pakistan and West Indies.

LOL. My bad I thought Windies chose to bat. Pretty stupid to bowl first. Windies will be chasing 400+.

 

[Haroon786]

West Indies team: KC Braithwaite, J Charles, DM Bravo, MN Samuels, D Ramdin +, KA Pollard, JO Holder *, CR Braithwaite, SP Narine, SJ Benn, ST Gabriel.

 

[Rayyman]

Well pitch is slow, so Pakistan should look to score 280-310.

 

[ask_analyse_act]

Rambo : if rahat hadnt missed that catch we would have missed the drama between wahab and watson.

Viv: Well if he had taken the catch then those bouncers would have been for the next two batsmen after watson..

Thats how u be positive...makes difference ... But Rambo with his usual rubbish...

u bank pak to post 400+... u might see them 100-3 atleast at 24 overs with Azhar and Sarfraz in the crease.....

Pitch is slow so not anymore. Thought it was the typical Sharjah pitch. Which it isn't.

 

[NauV]

Goodness Gracious . . Azhar Ali

 

[Azzurri]

Lol that was all too quick for our dreams to come true

Azhar

 

[Rayyman]

1st ball...bruhhh.

 

[Ellipsism]

Ripper from Gabriel.

 

[Mir jibran]

bad days for azhar ali continues

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Amazing ball

 

[Hadi Rizvi]

Goodness Gracious . . Azhar Ali

Back to square one with Azhar Ali debate

Guess we are back to pathetic ODI form

 

[dauntless]

Dissapointed wanted to see umar bat.supporting w.indies

 

[Rayyman]

Alhamdulillah India match is over. Now I can watch this game.

 

[Haroon786]

Good timing on the offside by Sharjeel.

 

[anuk]

this is what u get for picking sub standard openers.

 

[Ellipsism]

What a leader!!! Should be shame and resign

I guarantee you most batsman would've gotten on that delivery.

 

[ask_analyse_act]

The great Azhar ali ...

 

[Shafi]

I will never forgive Waqar and Misbah for appointing Azhar Ali as captain!!!! He is such a timid leader

 

[Hadi Rizvi]

Good timing on the offside by Sharjeel.

If Sharjeel can learn to hit the spinners straight and drive the pacers square and play proper cover drive then I don't think he needs anymore shots.

 

[ask_analyse_act]

I guarantee you most batsman would've gotten on that delivery.

similar delivery bowled to babar the very next ball... just a regulation seam movement off the pitch... the problem is Azhar when it comes to play the ball rather leave to keeper is found wanted and he is all over the place even against Irish medium pace attack... If Azhar keeps playing ODIs he will lose his mental toughness for tests...

 

[NauV]

The way Babar played that last ball from Jason Holder is the one clear problem in his technique . . Needs to arrest it ASAP . . Asad Shafiq has had the same problem

 

[Hadi Rizvi]

Nice shot for 4

 

[Mir jibran]

rotate the strike boys

 

[Rayyman]

No leaves so far...

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

147 KMPH Wow!

 

[last_knight]

LOL. My bad I thought Windies chose to bat. Pretty stupid to bowl first. Windies will be chasing 400+.

Most captains will prefer to bowl first if their counterpart is Azhar Ali.

 

[Haroon786]

If Sharjeel can learn to hit the spinners straight and drive the pacers square and play proper cover drive then I don't think he needs anymore shots.

Agreed.

It's his tendency to not flay outside the off stump without much footwork that seems to be his main problem, if he works on his offside game then he'll be successful in ODIs.

 

[Rinnegan Sasuke]

Typical start to our innings so far.

 

[itsme]

Umar not playing lmao

 

[Mir jibran]

azam should stand up in this series

 

[ask_analyse_act]

Windies should have played Alzarri Joseph instead of C Brathwaite

 

[asadee]

Azam failing to rotate the strike

 

[ask_analyse_act]

Umar not playing lmao

why would he play ... who should they bench then...

 

[dauntless]

Would love to see Babar scoring hundred

 

[Hadi Rizvi]

Is it possible that our openers are struggling a bit cuz of the bounce generated by these giant bowlers??

 

[MMHS]

Is this only me or Holder also thinks that chasing against Azhar's Captaincy is about 50 runs handicap? I mean, what else could be the reason of opting to chase under lights in Sharjah?

 

[ask_analyse_act]

Most captains will prefer to bowl first if their counterpart is Azhar Ali.

why ? any specific reason..

 

[NauV]

Bazid makes a great point!! We all know our batting is sub-standard but you still have to learn how to pace an innings to make 300 320 consistently . . the pitches in the UAE don't allow us to do that . . as you can't be expansive in stroke making . . so you have to aim for 250 260 as that's a match winning score

 

[itsme]

why would he play ... who should they bench then...

Malik rizwan azhar

 

[ask_analyse_act]

No, pak had the giant in the team.. shouldnt be awkward... They are under pressure now with the loss of Azhar ali trying to be aggressive...

 

[NauV]

Not a single short of a length ball to Sharjeel yet . .

 

[Haroon786]

Excellent timing from Sharjeel, looking ominous.

 

[Hadi Rizvi]

Azhar Ali is anything but aggressive........he's as timid as they come.........Btw gorgeously timed shot by Sharjeel

 

[ask_analyse_act]

Malik rizwan azhar

Malik scored a match winning 70 in the last ODI

Rizwan finished the game with his useful 36 when wickets were falling around him and threatening to lose from the jaws of victory

Azhar ali yes he could have been replaced but unfortunately he is the captain ad has scored two fifties in the last series...


Sorry no place for UA.. he has to wait for his chances..

 

[last_knight]

Well pitch is slow, so Pakistan should look to score 280-310.

I pray we do manage 280.

Anything above 235 will be a bonus.

 

[Hadi Rizvi]

Excellent timing from Sharjeel, looking ominous.

Sharjeel getting into his stride........the great thing is he's playing proper shots on off-side

 

[ask_analyse_act]

Azhar Ali is anything but aggressive........he's as timid as they come.........Btw gorgeously timed shot by Sharjeel

sarcasm bro

 

[shah_1]

sensible Sharjeel

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

Till when will Wahab get free rides? Good lord, this is pure illiteracy.

 

[TalhaSyed]

2 beautiful boundaries on the OFF side by Sharjeel MashAllah - great to see!

 

[Hadi Rizvi]

sarcasm bro

I know bro.......just can't stop hating on Azhar Ali I guess but only in LOIs

 

[last_knight]

Is this only me or Holder also thinks that chasing against Azhar's Captaincy is about 50 runs handicap? I mean, what else could be the reason of opting to chase under lights in Sharjah?

Isn't it ?

Most captains will prefer to bowl first if their counterpart is Azhar Ali.

 

[ask_analyse_act]

babar has all the time and chance to make it big and count... lets see if he can do it , holding the akmal gene...

 

[NauV]

It's so heartening to see Sharjeel playing on the off side . . a drive straight . . a cover drive . . a few nicely timed stroke . . not a single ball on his strength yet . . It's just good to see that he has been working on his game!

 

[ask_analyse_act]

Masha Allah Sharjeel u beauty... great to see him scoring boundaries from the offside..good he is working on his offside game as he said in his interview.. this guy talks and works on the same unlike many..

 

[Hadi Rizvi]

Probably 1st back of a length loose ball and Sharjeel latches onto it.......on the off-side too
