[CalculatedRisk]

pakistan deserves to lose this game.

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

Single to Akmal Jr

 

[Red Devil]

129-6

 

[Canistani Hero]

Can't see Afghanistan chasing anything above 150 on this pitch.

 

[Mr Consistent]

pak 129-6 after 36 overs

 

[saiyan0312]

We just need 200. Umer can provide that. The guy has talent.

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

pakistan deserves to lose this game.

True that but the fans do not deserve this torture

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

Single to Akmal

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Shenwari should bowl the odd googly.

 

[Mr Consistent]

drinks break

 

[style_guru]

The total is already out of reach for the Afghans.

 

[Saeed]

pakistan deserves to lose this game.

Why? They have played beautifully so far.

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

129-6 after 33.

 

[maddgenius]

We just need 200. Umer can provide that. The guy has talent.

We will score 230 IA

 

[Madplayer]

We can only hope and pray that we somehow get to 250 from here.

you gotta be kidding. 200 looks like a dream right now

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

Drinks break it is.

 

[Sam18696]

Anyone know how well AFG play spin?

 

[Amjid Javed]

Pathetic batting display today and i hope this is a wake up call for certain players to be dropped form team forever!

 

[Logical]

The total is already out of reach for the Afghans.

True, dont even know why is everyone worried. Another 30 odd needed for a bonus point

 

[Saeed]

People need to calm down, Afghanistan won't score more than 100.

 

[Amjid Javed]

AA and UA pretty much need to bat for the rest of the inns here for us to save face.

 

[Logical]

Anyone know how well AFG play spin?

They slog at everything

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Anyone know how well AFG play spin?

They don't bat particularly well against any kind of bowling.

 

[CalculatedRisk]

True that but the fans do not deserve this torture

Passionate fans have tolerated a lot worse. Fans cannot tolerate seeing another match in Afridi comes in at a critical match and hoics the bat just to see the stumps crashing.

 

[Lords]

Pakistan has made mess of it. Every wicket was thrown away multiple times (barring misbah) . Shahzad, hafeez and maqsood showed poor cricketing skills. After getting enough runs in a over they played a useless shot to throw their wickets away.

Great discipline shown by young afg team but i must say they are really poor in fielding. They leaked 20+ runs just because of bad fielding.

Pakistan looks clueless with no plan whatsoever.

PS. If maqsood cannot sacrifice himself for the best batsman and the captain of the team then i dont know who he would do it for.

I think its good we didnt play bhatti today. short stuff will go for sixes against them. the love the crossbatted slog/.

 

[Indiafan]

thats what i was thinking anyways this match have hurted our mentality they will come in feild with negative mind of set against you guys

That is ok

 

[maddgenius]

Anyone know how well AFG play spin?

They are usually at sea against spin. But dew factor is a worry.

 

[Saeed]

This pitch is minefield so another 50 runs will be excellent.

 

[Madplayer]

if afridi does not take a fifer today he needs to be dropped . . . . . . from the world

 

[hussain.r97]

Don't know why people underestimating Afghanistan so much... There is no way anything under 230 will be a competitive total. This is meant to be an absolute belter of a pitch. Don't you guys remember they have gotten to 200+ s Pakistan and Australia on a more difficult pitch against better/in form bowling...

 

[Sunny786]

This is a nightmare.

 

[CalculatedRisk]

Moin khan the boss was supposed to instill a fearless winning attitude! Moin Khan;s stint might be over in a week!

 

[Jabo]

Like I said

India bowlers will become ATG when playing pakistan

Can't believe you guys think they have a chance at WT20

Maqsood.Shezad.Sharjeel are not correct for the format

 

[Saeed]

Lol Pakistan lower than bangladesh on table.

 

[Asif321]

need 200

 

[HamzaSaeen]

On the other hand I wouldn't be surprised if we win, the pitch has decent turn and their batting line is filled with hacks

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

This. Things are looking bad for Pakistan at this stage

 

[hussain.r97]

This pitch is minefield so another 50 runs will be excellent.

This ain't a minefield, Pakistan have literally gifted more than half the wickets to the opponent..........

 

[Red Devil]

:4 Wooooopti dooooo

 

[Mr Consistent]

:4 runs

 

[Sam18696]

AFG needs to improve fielding

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

All up to these two.

 

[Saeed]

Don't worry they will fold against ajmal and afridi so just another 50 runs needed.

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

good shot that.

 

[Barragan]

I think its good we didnt play bhatti today. short stuff will go for sixes against them. the love the crossbatted slog/.

Anwar bowls short stuff too and in fact, he got hit by the Zimbabweans.

 

[Saeed]

46 runs needed now.

 

[zabalestmsm]

Now again a very over cautious approach by Umar Akmal. Why not play normally. At least look for 5 an over.

 

[Fahdi]

This ain't a minefield, Pakistan have literally gifted more than half the wickets to the opponent..........

Which wicket did they not gift?

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

C'mon Pakistan

 

[Madplayer]

what a nightmare

 

[Red Devil]

:6 by Umar

 

[hussain.r97]

I haven't seen much of Anwar bowl, what is he like. All I've seen of him is his terrible seam position..

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

After 34, 134-6 Pakistan

 

[saiyan0312]

good got the boundary. no need to do something stupid. anwar has a better brain then our top 4

 

[Mr Consistent]

what a shot :6

 

[Canistani Hero]

Afridi will be very potent on this pitch. He skids the ball on like no other, expect a couple of freebie LBW's for him. He always find a way to redeem himself doesn't he

 

[Saeed]

40 more runs needed.

 

[Electron]

:6 .. Umar the beast unleashed.

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

I haven't seen much of Anwar bowl, what is he like. All I've seen of him is his terrible seam position..

He is a rubbish bowler. Pure rubbish

 

[razabbas]

Good shot

 

[saiyan0312]

by umer... Ok you got the six so calm down.

 

[mosh101]

Smashing six from young umar

 

[maddgenius]

Just play normally till 45 overs and then try to slog

 

[zabalestmsm]

Now he is gearing up which good to see

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

Jiyo Akmal !

 

[saiyan0312]

single smart batting. Lets open with these two and have misbah at 3.

 

[hussain.r97]

Which wicket did they not gift?

LOL! that as an understatement! All wickets were gifted

 

[Red Devil]

Batting PP time

 

[Mr Consistent]

pak 142-6 after 35 overs

 

[razabbas]

Good shot

 

[Saeed]

Akmal will throw it away.

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

At least we will get to 150 now lol

 

[mosh101]

Imagine getting to 200 and then afghanistan chasing this down easily haha

 

[Mr Consistent]

pp time now

 

[Saqib]

Anwar Ali really should watch not to run himself out or his partner reminds me of Mohammad Yousef.

 

[Fahdi]

Now he is gearing up which good to see

When he gears up he gets out more often than not. So no!

 

[saiyan0312]

powerplay... around 25 to 30 without losing wickets. infact just dont lose wickets.
