Nazir cuts and cuts hard. Raced away.

96/2
 
Salaam Noddy bhai,
do you think if nazir scores big today, he will be retained?
 
I think Nazir has flopped too many times. I can only remember his notable 57 against SA .
 
between that 57 and todays knock there have only been 4 or 5 odis though. i am a big nazir fan however i do recognize his lack of consistency. personally would like to see him and butt at the top of the order, with yasir replacing inzi.
 
Nazir is doing this against a 3rd rate bowling attack. He himself is a 3rd rate player. And he's already provided them with a couple of chances including a plumb lbw. Let's not get too excited here!
 
We're probably the best team in the world in no pressure, meaningless games!

Thanks just what I needed, that makes feel a lot better in moments like this.
 
Nazir is not that impressive either when he bats, too many edges flying, most of his shots are not convincing. I wont pay too much attention to his score but the way he bats makes me worry. Hardly ever in control of the shots.

Imagine Zimbabwe had beaten Ireland, we could have maybe still qualified on run rate:-s:- . Oh well maybe I should stop thinking of "Whats Ifs"
 
Great pull shot by Nazir for 4! Chihbaba into the attack.
 
We'd have destroyed Ireland on this pitch! Dammm... just makes you wonder. Another 4 to inzy top edge.
 
Inzy top edges a 4.. scoring at a very quick rate!

WE could destroy them anywhere...is just that we did not play them like the fighters we used to be

If the game had meant anything, we would have collapsed. And you know what, look at the positive, we're saved from the torture of seeing the likes of Nazir exposed to the Aussies, Saffies, etc..
 
Good stuff from Pakistan so far, I like what I see...Hope to see it continue today, and in the future.

We don't have such a bad world cups! just the last one and this, I think we could have done ok.
 
against ireland they probly saw the green pitch and thought lets play defensive!

ATTTACK is always the best method of defence..
thats why we ALWAYS need Afridi in the squad (cue the abuse)
 
Saeed finished his career his career with a 100, so even if Nazir scores big here, I don't know how much it means. As a speak, Inzy hits another 6!
 
Inzamam just flicks a six to midwicket; we are going to miss him.
 
this kind of josh should have been shown before, attack is always the best form of defense like you say. and i just hit 50 posts, took two years but i finally did it :p
 
Pakistan RR 5.48

INZI to STICK with ODI campaign!!!! cmon big bro, should stay in the team!!!! come backkkkkkkkk pleaseeee

Didn't take you long to change your mind.
 
Pakistan's run rate is now faster than Sri Lanka's and the Lankans got off to a flyer!
 
Imran hits a 6 over mid off, and next ball through mid on for 4.

Pakistan on fire.
 
we need 420+ to have the TOP score ever in WORLD cups.. cmon boyssssss u can do it

and AFRIDI to get Six 6's ...

Then all we need is DANISH to get a 10 wicket haul !!!!!!!

MAYBE Inzi should bowl since its his last game..

we have again stuck to singles, and of course boundries....where are the 2's?

Inzi is on the wicket dont' think they will run 2s and 3s.
I am happy with 1s, 4s and 6s.
 
a bit late but for those who aint watching

26.4 Utseya to Imran Nazir, FOUR, an ungainly - well, it was ugly to be honest - heave across the line and it races for four through midwicket

26.3 Utseya to Imran Nazir, SIX, lucky...lucky. Done in the flight, Nazir mistimes it over the bowlers head and it just creeps over for six

Cricinfo is so crap it still aint shown inzi as out.. i dont beleive u guys ;-)
 
And he gets a big standing ovation; each Zimbabwe player jogs over to shake his hand. And as he raises his bat, his Pakistan side all come down to greet their captain who, by now, is in tears. He takes his helmet off, acknowledges the crowd while wiping the tears dry. A dreadful week, and tournament, comes to an end for Pakistan. And 15 years ago today, Inzamam scored 60 off 37 balls to help Pakistan win the World Cup semi-final against New Zealand
27.4 Mupariwa to Inzamam-ul-Haq, OUT, fine catch, a very fine catch to end a brilliant batsman's one-day career. Inzamam trying to launch another six over long-on but got an outside edge behind Williams' head at mid-off who jogged back and took it in front of his nose. Fine catch

What an emotional send off.

Crowd on their feet.

The Zimbabwean team all greeted and hugged him.

Than the PAk players came out and gave him a 'guard of honour'.

I feel good for Inzi - I wanted him to leave the field in this way

Can't believe its been so long. Even though his average in world cups isn't very good, because of that inning and against England in the final, you can never say he was a world cup failure. I also remember that innings against Australia in the group stages of the 99 world cup.
 
just need MoYo to keep up the Pace .... or will he bat sensibley and let Imran let loose?? (IF he can get any looser that is!!)
