Pakistan v West Indies | 3rd IT20 | Abu Dhabi | Sep 27, 2016 | Match Thread

Sharjeel and Latif will chance this target in less than 10 overs. :facepalm:


Needed the opposition to score 160-170 to test out our batting
 
Raees is a trundler according to some, he just bowled over 142 kph


A better bowler than Hasan
 
Raees is quicker than he looks, bowling in the high 130's. His pace and Hassan's pace are relatively the same.
 
A couple ahh haters! ah couple ahh haters! :)) trying to stand up to the Squad

:)) :)) Thats exactly what I was thinking!

Don't hate on your reigning, defending United States Champion! :afridi

Rumman bowling a great spell so far mashallah. Hopefully he can finish it off with Samuels' wicket!
 
I'm actually rooting for these Windies hacks so that they set us atleast some sort of a target
 
Pakistan fielding. OK, see the enthusiasm, but at least try and get it close to the stumps! Throws missing wickets by miles.

Amir unlucky again.

Good start from Raees, how effective would he be on unfavourable pitches?
 
All PSL youngsta have impressed. Sharjeel, Latif, Hassan, Nawaz and now Rumman. And this was just the first season.

Is it just me or is he bowling quicker then he did in the PSL? also has lost quiet a bit of weight
 
Also anyone catch West Indian commentator saying U Akmal celebration ridiculing WI? Now all fans doing it in the crowd. Lol

Raees definitely looks a better T20 bowler than Hasan Ali.

And Sarfraz has Raees as a backup of Hasan :facepalm: Shows you Sarfraz is not a good captain.

Yea he seems to be skidding on a bit and generating a bit more pace, which is helping a lot with his variations and making his slower balls a lot more effective

Are you even serious? :danish
 
Even the most optimistic pak fan could not have saw this coming even in his wildest imaginations that pak could clean sweep this series vs world champions WI, specially with this much ease and with zero competition, incredible.

RR was once a great hope for pak but then was vilified because we all saw that we'd never match his physical beauty :afridi then he made one mistake and the crows ate him....almost :yk in the shadows he would read "redesign, rebuild, reclaim" tasbee 100 times everyday and make his triumphant return on this night, the grand finale; the show case of ruthless aggression to claim what has always belonged to him, GOLD.

Is not it captain's job to know the skill level of each of his player? Remember YK as a captain include a raw Mohammad Amir in his T20 team and win the T20 WC. Sarfraz should have known that Raees' name should be in the team sheet before Hasan. He is not a good captain in this regard. :12:
 
I like how we have posters on here who feel like they have Imran Khan's eye for talent as they sit in their arm chairs, watching a pixelated stream of a T20 match whilst commenting on how Rumman is way better than Hassan or vise versa after watching a hand full of overs by both bowlers :P
 
He has still got a lot prove to justify the hype
He was our best bowler in the ODI series isn't that enough to justify the hype.

Yes, there is some work to do, he will add a few K's by mid next year.

He will only learn with experience.

:))) I always enjoy reading your posts

:)) he's cashing in tonight man!!

We always believed in RR but everyone else was just being a cuppa haters :mv
 
I've seen Rumman bowl many times in domestic cricket and PSL too. This isn't hate. He is just an ordinary bowler. Don't care if he bowled 143 in one T20 game today. Don't care if his economy is decent against a side that has barely crossed 100.
 
Only talking about T20.
Your darling took mighty figures of 0-40 against the mighty Karachi Whites which consisted of a batting line up of a bunch of 30 year old over the hill players and Asad Shafiq.
 
This is such a pathetic innings. :facepalm:

I hope the last over goes for 20-30 so that we atleast have something to chase..
 
18 overs by left arm bowlers in a 20 over match now thats a new record.
 
Why is Sohail Malik so serious, most of the time? I have rarely seen him smiling.

He should be dropped.

He just fields where the captain tells him field, and doesn't tell the captain how to do his job. It's disgraceful.

He doesn't even smile for gods sake! Why's he even in the team?

:wasim

Bound to be bad days, can't preform in every match.
 
OUCH!!

Samuels down!!

Family jewels in the firing line! Somebody get the magic spray!! Get the ice pack out!!

Never mind - he's up suspiciously quickly.... :afaq
 
Raucous, sarcastic cheers for WI's 100


LOL cricinfo is savage
 
If Samuels and Pollard were playing for Pakistan right now, they would be getting absolutely destroyed on here right now. Sends a shiver down my spine thinking what would be being said about them

They were acclimatising to the conditions in preparation for the ODI series :)) lacked intent big time, it certainly isn't a 103 wicket :/ I think 150 would have been a great effort from them
 
so basically these guys can't hit the boundaries??? i think this is one of the biggest grounds. boundaries are like at least 80m?
 
Laugh at our bowling prowess, cry at their batting prowess.


Aek hi format mein achay thay yeh log, osmein bhi phainti lag gayi

They are really good on flat pitches, almost a Virat Kohli Tribute act we shouldn't call them the West Indies just call them the Virat Motorway King Kohli XI
 
Baykar pitch. Bradman would've been out for negative score here.

Maybe someone forgot to tell them that the ODI series hasn't started yet.... :afaq

8 games 9 wickets in the T20 Cup economy rate of 8.34.

55% of his wickets were of tailenders.

He deserves a go and bowled well today, but you saying that he is better than Hasan is just ridiculous.

That sounds a lot like what people said about the Dubai pitch where Pakistan won the first game whilst loosing only 1 wicket Mashallah and in the 2nd they scored 260 Mashallah
 
Now i know how other countries feel watching us bat in ODIs last 2 years.

Glad to see Imad do well again
