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

[#GreenRoars]

Pathetic batting by WI

 

[troodon]

Staying a bit low to spinners but nothing drastic

Ball is not even spinning and West Indies are falling like nine pins.

 

[shah_1]

Really poor batting

Need to come down the pitch to attack Imad

 

[JibranAnsari]

Lol imad is having a free ride... Extremely poor batsmen against no spin.

 

[MRSN]

This series has been very dull.

 

[imshally81]

Great bowling Imad boy

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Please don't call him that. I am Roman Reigns.

You wish man, you're rey mysterio.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Is pitch slow or Pak bowling well?

WI batting is pathetic.

 

[TalhaSyed]

Imad have a brilliant series mashallah and bowling very well.

Just wicket to wicket, disciplined bowling and picking up 9 wickets in 3 matches.

 

[Hasan123]

Loving this new t20 team. Sarfraz doing well with captaincy, bowlers bowling well, fielding is looking good. The batters have a decent plan.

 

[imshally81]

This series has been very dull.

Abhi Pakistan haar jata na... Tu series interesting ho jaati..

 

[TalhaSyed]

Please don't call him that. I am Roman Reigns.

[MENTION=46929]shaz619[/MENTION] - what we got here?

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Is imad turning turning the ball? Man what a find for Pakistan, the world champions can't even put bat on ball

 

[MRSN]

Is imad turning turning the ball? Man what a find for Pakistan, the world champions can't even put bat on ball

he is not. that's why it's a worry for Pakistan..

 

[#GreenRoars]

Fan of Nicholas Pooran, want him to score good here so he may get feature series.

 

[TalhaSyed]

This series has been very dull.

Im all for tight, competitive cricket matches - but so far mashallah this series has been exactly what Pakistan needed in limited over cricket.

A new skipper, a rejuvenated start, and MashAllah so far trashing the T20 champions at the their own game. This is no associate team we are playing against. Its a very strong team and mashallah our bouys have done very well which was badly needed in limited over cricket

 

[troodon]

Is imad turning turning the ball? Man what a find for Pakistan, the world champions can't even put bat on ball

Nope. He bowls his little inswingers and the ball skids and keeps low. WI batsmen are playing cross batted swipes and getting cleaned up.

A perfect guy for these conditions.

 

[TalhaSyed]

Fan of Nicholas Pooran, want him to score good here so he may get feature series.

Dont go soft on us roar!!

Dont wanna anyone to score runs against us!!

Imad - CRUSH!!!

 

[JaDed]

Hope the ODI's are more competitive unlikely considering Windies are only good at T20 and Pak has dominated them ,going to be a boring series.

 

[#GreenRoars]

on Maddy...

 

[troodon]

Fan of Nicholas Pooran, want him to score good here so he may get feature series.

So far in this series he played like a Poorman.

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

What's so exciting about this Pooran guy? Why is everyone posting about him? Probably another over hyped Imrul Kayes type player

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Listening to Sarfraz is so much fun

 

[#GreenRoars]

Here come the Roman Reigns

 

[MRSN]

Why are the boundaries so long?Pathetic stuff. These are T20Is. for god's sake.

 

[saeed5646]

ruman raees first ball 143 kph no way

 

[troodon]

Rooman Raees can bowl all variations, back of the hand slower deliveries, has all the toys.

)

 

[MRSN]

What's so exciting about this Pooran guy? Why is everyone posting about him? Probably another over hyped Imrul Kayes type player

He can hit big. very big.

 

[Hasan123]

Hope Ruman proves his doubters wrong

 

[marlonbrowndo]

"Bit different to Florida"- Bazid talking about the boundaries here. Great stuff

 

[MRSN]

I think Pooran has had enough of this tuk tuk.

 

[saeed5646]

Great Gesture by Pakistan team management and mickey to invite waqar younis to give debut cap to ruman raees

 

[Waqarkhan]

Very good seam position for Raees

 

[MRSN]

Sarfraz should bring Immad to get rid of Pooran.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Raees is poor. Brings nothing special to the team. Don't care about how many slower balls he can bowl

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Sarfraz should bring Immad to get rid of Pooran.

He's bowled out

 

[#GreenRoars]

Excellent shot by Pooran

 

[MRSN]

YES! Pooran got that one right. MASSIVE!

 

[t_kaay]

Why are the boundaries so long?Pathetic stuff. These are T20Is. for god's sake.

That shot made the boundary look small

 

[#GreenRoars]

Why are the boundaries so long?Pathetic stuff. These are T20Is. for god's sake.

Yep, even larger than Dubai DSC.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Too long boundary yaar.

 

[aukhan]

 

[MRSN]

That should have been a six in a T20 ground.

 

[t_kaay]

Raees is poor. Brings nothing special to the team. Don't care about how many slower balls he can bowl

Looks very similar to Sohail Tanveer bowling style......as you say, nothing special but not bad either

 

[Hasan123]

Loooool pooran targeting the legside too much

 

[ExplicitAI]

 

[TalhaSyed]

Excellent shot by Pooran

....aaaaannnnnd out

 

[MRSN]

yaar just wanted to see Pooran's firework. disappointed. Now I think WI will fold for under 100 total.

 

[DRsohail]

Great Gesture by Pakistan team management and mickey to invite waqar younis to give debut cap to ruman raees

yess...waqar is an inspiration for all of them.

 

[troodon]

Boy, those boundaries are too long for a T20 match.

Would have been six on most grounds where T20's are played.

Singles and twos and fours are the way to go in UAE.

 

[Hamza_]

Good pace from Raees in that over.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

West Indies haven't been running enough 2s and 3s. On these big grounds you have to do that

 

[itsme]

Thank samuels for that wicket,pooran would have destroy ruman .

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

There was no point playing Roman Reigns and Sohail Malik together, in the playing XI, Hasan Ali should have been given this game as well.

 

[The Last Of The Stars]

It feels like we are playing with an extra bowler, lol.

 

[troodon]

West Indies haven't been running enough 2s and 3s. On these big grounds you have to do that

Yup!

Seen this from WI batsmen. They just do not like to run. They think they can hit six of every ball like Gayle.

Even in IPL, whenever a WI batsmen hate to run. Just pathetic.

 

[Hamza_]

140kph from Raees.

 

[itsme]

Samuels is rubbish his batting against pacers remind me of malik,moving away from the ball.

 

[troodon]

Pooran should be persisted though. He will come good eventually. Hope he gets an extended run.

Ruman Raes is a pretty decent bowler.

 

[saeed5646]

yess...waqar is an inspiration for all of them.

passion in waqar eyes was sooooo pleasing to watch

 

[troodon]

Fazeer Mohammed getting too emotional.

 

[asadee]

I simply don't understand the automatic hate for debutants on this forum

 

[MRSN]

ball is not coming on to bat that well.

 

[MRSN]

Fazeer Mohammed getting too emotional.

Any passionate WI fan should be.

 

[itsme]

Samuels should try to hit rather than trying to guide the ball to third man he is going to edge one if he continues.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Fell safe.

 

[MRSN]

WI should at least target 130 here

 

[#GreenRoars]

....aaaaannnnnd out

Boundaries fault

 

[DRsohail]

passion in waqar eyes was sooooo pleasing to watch

yess he is the man ..

 

[itsme]

Want us to chase more than 150

 

[MRSN]

Samuels should try to hit rather than trying to guide the ball to third man he is going to edge one if he continues.

yep he is better when he launching them in the air.

 

[MRSN]

Want us to chase more than 150

lol at the moment WI don't even look like scoring 110.

 

[t_kaay]

100 seems so far away

 

[shaz619]

[MENTION=46929]shaz619[/MENTION] - what we got here?

A couple ahh haters! ah couple ahh haters! trying to stand up to the Squad

 

[Syed1]

This Windies is soooooooooo boring.. Bhai koi aur team lao maza nahi ahraha

 

[NauV]

Ruman Raees is a good t20 bowler!! I was really impressed with him in the PSL . . and his variety of pace and accuracy has been amazing today . . I feel like he's a better bet than Hassan Ali in t20 cricket!

 

[MRSN]

Safe to say Rauman averages 130 odd

 

[ExplicitAI]

Samuels is playing an ODI here

 

[t_kaay]

Pretty sure they were about 50 after 10 overs......last 6 overs for 27ish runs in a t20......lol

 

[fasihulhaq94]

I simply don't understand the automatic hate for debutants on this forum

Yes it is quite noticeable here on PP.

At least let the dude get some games under his belt before you judge him
