Awful this from Tanvir...and frankly typical...helped the Aussies to 248...

249 is gonna be a tough chase...
 
Tailenders or not , wicket is a wicket and if they were not taken out , we would be chasing 250 +

well - still chasing 250 (well almost). Fielding is below club standards - let the blame game begin.
 
Cricinfo : At this venue, Pakistan have successfully chased 295 vs West Indies, 289 vs South Africa, 254 vs Australia, 239 vs Sri Lanka in ODIs - all in last four years, more or less with same players."

oh...wow!never knew this side chased more than 250 o_O
 
Question: Despite bowling better, how does Cheema get dropped and Tanvir stuck to? And that's not even counting that Cheema fields better
 
Tanvir you can **** off and stay away from this team. Who do you think you are to be cursing Ajmal?
 
With no Afridi, there's no chance of us chasing this. It will be te same old story; Hafeez to play some pretty shots early before both openers depart. Azhar will get stuck with Misbah coming in to take the game to the final over even of it means we need 36+. Seen it too many times before.
 
AHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHHA another four from Starc, called it before it was bowled! Well thankfully he didn't get smashed for any more! He will be dropped before next game, that much is guaranteed... if Gul isn't there then even Aziz should be tried ahead of him!

Neways.. bowling problems will have to wait... im sure if lala was bowling instead of rehman we'd be better off too but anyway, les see how our batsmen tackle this "monster" total
 
We will miss Abdul razzak. I guess he played that historic knock of 109 odd runs against SA on this GROUND.
 
Misbahs ridiculous tactic to let Bailey and Hussey build a partnership by bringing Azhar and Tanvir on will cost us this game.
 
It is time we start learning to chase big totals even if we have to lose a few matches. Bowlers can't do their job every match. Batsmen should stand up now and deliver otherwise they should be paid half as less as the bowlers.
 
Hoping Hafeez doesn't open, hoping Umar comes at 3 and Shafiq at 4 with Azhar at 4 and Misbah at 11
 
This team desperately needs Amir in place of Trashvir and a fast bowling allrounder in place of Rehman. Misbah also needs to go..

AFridi? the guy who has been averaging 15 with the bat this year , would have won us this game ?

and this is why I was insistent on another spinner in the team in place of a pacer.

Pakistan have 99% lost this now, 1% chance of winning will come from a miracular abdul razzaq esque innings
 
With no Afridi (THANK GOD), there's (delete) no(delete) chance of us chasing this. It will be te same old story; Hafeez to play some pretty shots early before both openers depart.
