Pakistan vs Australia | 3rd ODI | Abu Dhabi | Mar 27, 2019 | Australian Innings

[Omer2002]

Yasir and Abbas are decisions from the pressure by the media...he was never going to select them but the media kept on asking for them as they so great bowlers...

 

[Shafi]

Finch heading towards his 3rd 100. Our bowlers can even gift him 5 hundreds in this series.

 

[Hasan123]

Agree with this commie. Starting your careers on these pitches must be so disheartening.

 

[Shafi]

Yasir and Abbas are decisions from the pressure by the media...he was never going to select them but the media kept on asking for them as they so great bowlers...

Don't make excuse for Inzi. Yasir was a failure even in PSL and Abbas was very average. Media pressure for U akmal is understandable.
If Inzi can't do his job properly he should ask media to give him squad lists for the Australia series.

 

[Omer2002]

haris is spinning the bowl

 

[Omer2002]

the amount of spin i have seen i am afraid the game is over...aussies have geniuine spinners like lyon and zampa in team unlike us

 

[Pete Rose]

Unlike Yasir, Haris is
1 - bowling right pace/ varying it
2 - spinning it because above
3 - bowling a better length

 

[HGhazanfar]

Haris bowling well is a major plus for Pakistan leading into the world cup. We could slot him in at 4.

Fakhar
Imam
Babar
Haris
Sarfraz WK C
Hafeez
Asif Ali
Shadab
Hassan Ali
Shaheen Afridi
Shinwari

Faheem
Junaid/Hasnain
Shaan
Malik

 

[Syed1]

Are we going to pick up more than 2 wickets this series or not????

Where's Imad? He is the only one who can give it some wellie towards the end of an innings?

 

[Omer2002]

goneee

 

[Syed1]

Unlike Yasir, Haris is
1 - bowling right pace/ varying it
2 - spinning it because above
3 - bowling a better length

Seeing this Yasir Shah should immediately announce his retirement. Garbage bowler.

 

[Omer2002]

i said haris should have been brought on earlier....

 

[Syed1]

Shaba Harry.... such a valuable player. If only he wasn't made of glass

 

[Mueez]

A ripper from Haris.

 

[Chokli]

Shaba Harry.... such a valuable player. If only he wasn't made of glass

agreed

 

[Omer2002]

indeed....imagine how many rippers Lyon and Zampa will do..especially the amount of left handers we have

 

[babajee]

Haris is a far better spinner than Imad.

 

[Mueez]

indeed....imagine how many rippers Lyon and Zampa will do..especially the amount of left handers we have

Pakistan have a opening.

Should look to get a target around 270-280.

Pretty much possible.

 

[HGhazanfar]

Where's Imad? He is the only one who can give it some wellie towards the end of an innings?

Imad won't do much with the ball, won't pick up wickets rather have Asif Ali and Hafeez 2 batsmen that can hit straight aswell and not just depend on leg side slogging.

 

[HGhazanfar]

Is haris the allrounder we have been looking for?????

 

[Pete Rose]

Was hoping to see afridi+ come in right now for Australia. Could have been 4 down ten runs later

 

[Pete Rose]

Haris is a far better spinner than Imad.

Different roles for both

 

[shah_1]

Yasir is so poor that even Haris has outbowled him

 

[Omer2002]

imad is just a darter even i can do that ..he will only get wickets if the batsman go after him like 20 20s..i said before bring haris on now malik should take imad off and bring yasir on

 

[coy0607]

Why exactly is Shinwari being held back?

 

[HGhazanfar]

Different roles for both

What role does Imad have containing runs, this isn't T20. He is ineffective in this format.

 

[Farhan93]

Haris is such a waste, could have developed himself as a terrific allrounder but his relaxed approach has ruined that.
With his bowling, he's a more valueble player for Pakistan than Babar at 3, just needs to be better at strike rotation

 

[Omer2002]

then again imad has been economical atleast

 

[Pete Rose]

Seeing this Yasir Shah should immediately announce his retirement. Garbage bowler.

I think we need to have a discussion about (a) yasir not doing well anywhere other than subcontinent and (b) struggling to figure out how to bowl in limited overs

 

[Chokli]

if imam was batting the way finch is i think 90% of pak passion would have slit their wrists

 

[Farhan93]

Haris troubling Aus batsmen makes me think what Kashif bhatti would have done to these pathetic players of spin, while Yasir shah getting hammered on the other end

 

[Omer2002]

isnt shan suppose to be a good fielder he has let atleast three mis fields.

 

[coy0607]

15 overs of dot balls out of 25 - Aus pulling a Pakistan

 

[Chokli]

What role does Imad have containing runs, this isn't T20. He is ineffective in this format.

if the par score in this era is 300 and imad is going at 4-5 in his 10, he's done his job.

 

[HGhazanfar]

Now Malik needs to learn not to drag the game, bring back Hasnain for a 3 over burst.

 

[Chokli]

Imad won't do much with the ball, won't pick up wickets rather have Asif Ali and Hafeez 2 batsmen that can hit straight aswell and not just depend on leg side slogging.

asif hasn't done anything so far in his international career, even hasan ali has made more of an impact with the bat

 

[Pete Rose]

What role does Imad have containing runs, this isn't T20. He is ineffective in this format.

First thing you have to recognize is that imad plays as slogger and runs containing bowler whereas haris plays as a front line batsman and part time bowler. There can be discussions about haris bowling (as others have alluded he shatters quite easily) but neither player is competing against each other.
It’s like saying well imad bats death overs better than haris: so what? That’s not haris’ primary job

 

[Chokli]

Haris troubling Aus batsmen makes me think what Kashif bhatti would have done to these pathetic players of spin, while Yasir shah getting hammered on the other end

any decent spinner would have done well here, hell haris isn't even a front line spinner and he's doing a great job.

 

[dhurandharj]

Where is it getting live streamed ?

 

[Omer2002]

ptv sports website..Sony LIV are showing it in pakistan as well

 

[Omer2002]

Finch better not get another century

 

[Titan24]

Haris already looking much bettwr than Yasir the specialist

 

[HGhazanfar]

if the par score in this era is 300 and imad is going at 4-5 in his 10, he's done his job.

Pakistan doesn't have the batting to chase anythign over 250. So we need wicket takers not run containers. If Imad can't offer as much with the bat that part time bowlers can, than I would prefer to strengthen batting.

 

[Farhan93]

any decent spinner would have done well here, hell haris isn't even a front line spinner and he's doing a great job.

Not the likes of Bilal Asif, as some people still mentioning his name though he's average at best even at domestic level.
Domestic front line spinners are :

Kashif bhatti, Khalid Usman, Zafar Gohar, M. Irfan khan.

 

[HGhazanfar]

asif hasn't done anything so far in his international career, even hasan ali has made more of an impact with the bat

To develop a batsman you persist with them, that's what we are doing with Fakhar and he will come good eventually without changing his attacking style. We should do the same with Asif Ali, should not judge him off asia cup and zimbabwe series. He needs more chances.

 

[Titan24]

Pakistan doesn't have the batting to chase anythign over 250. So we need wicket takers not run containers. If Imad can't offer as much with the bat that part time bowlers can, than I would prefer to strengthen batting.

To be honest Imad has been the best lower order hitter since the SA series. He deserves to be there as a hitter alone and him being able to ball is something Pak doesnt have the luxury to deny.

 

[Chokli]

To develop a batsman you persist with them, that's what we are doing with Fakhar and he will come good eventually without changing his attacking style. We should do the same with Asif Ali, should not judge him off asia cup and zimbabwe series. He needs more chances.

he makes our already weak batting even weaker because of his inability to pace his innings.

if he's going to be in the side taking up a batsmen's spot then he needs to start batting up the order in domestic cricket.

we are persisting with Fakhar because of what he did in the CT 17, you think he'd be given this long of a run if he failed in the CT?

he's fine for t20s not for odi

 

[Titan24]

Imad has economy of 2.6 today which is phenomenal. He isnt a wicket taker but you only need 3-4 for that, 1-2 guys should be holding the scoring

 

[HGhazanfar]

Malik just lets the game flow without intervening. Doesn't understand we need to go for wickets, Shinwari bowling in death could easily go for 100 in last 10 overs. Need to bring front line bowlers back.

 

[Chokli]

Pakistan doesn't have the batting to chase anythign over 250. So we need wicket takers not run containers. If Imad can't offer as much with the bat that part time bowlers can, than I would prefer to strengthen batting.

have you even been watching cricket lately? are you aware of how imad has batted so far in this series and previous series'?

 

[Mueez]

I think Malik should give 1-2 overs to Hasnain now.

 

[dhurandharj]

Thanks...

 

[Pete Rose]

Pakistan doesn't have the batting to chase anythign over 250. So we need wicket takers not run containers. If Imad can't offer as much with the bat that part time bowlers can, than I would prefer to strengthen batting.

He averages 211 at a strike rate of 115 in the last ten overs, but sure let’s ignore numbers

 

[HGhazanfar]

Imad has economy of 2.6 today which is phenomenal. He isnt a wicket taker but you only need 3-4 for that, 1-2 guys should be holding the scoring

Is Imad's batting and fielding good enough for him to play as a genuine allrounder. Or is his bowling good enough to play as a bowling allrounder ... He will give u 20 runs in batting and bowl you 5-6 quiet overs. Is that we need in a 50 overs game?

 

[Syed1]

Pathetic captaincy to persist with these spinners when new bat at the crease. Should have given ball to Junaid or Hasnain.



Yet people like [MENTION=136729]Suleiman[/MENTION] with zero cricketing knowledge call this loser the best captain in Pakistan.

 

[Omer2002]

finch is obviously goingt to change gears now so i think time for a change

 

[Omer2002]

Shukar.....needed that wicket

 

[Mueez]

Imad

 

[jaf348]

This is getting dangerous. The stage is being set for Maxwell to come in and hit a quick fire 50.

yes malik's captaincy sucks, but don't act like sarfraz is any better.

letting india get to 158 by feeding fakhar and shadab to pandya.

and then letting bangladesh get to 239 from 11-3...

 

[HGhazanfar]

have you even been watching cricket lately? are you aware of how imad has batted so far in this series and previous series'?

Clearly you haven't seen his technique he will be exposed in the world cup. He bats like a tailender slogging, sorry but these shots won't work in the world cup. Who is he batting in the death against Stoinis, Coulter Nile? Needs to learn how to hit straight down the ground.

 

[Chokli]

imad makes the side on batting alone

 

[Pete Rose]

This is getting dangerous. The stage is being set for Maxwell to come in and hit a quick fire 50.

Usually good for quick fire 20’s. This is good for Pakistan that he has to come early

 

[Abdullah719]

He averages 211 at a strike rate of 115 in the last ten overs, but sure let’s ignore numbers

Strike rate of 144.

 

[HGhazanfar]

He averages 211 at a strike rate of 115 in the last ten overs, but sure let’s ignore numbers

If we go by numbers than Imam is our best bat? Is he?

 

[Sher Khan]

Bro, it’s you with zero cricketing knowledge. The spinners are bowling accurately and building pressure. Which has now resulted in stoinis losing his wicket.

 

[Chokli]

i guess you missed the south african series?

asif ali has already exposed himself in the same country he played the psl in and you think he's the solution to our problems and doesn't even bowl....AND you think it's justifiable to give him a batsman's slot.

imad is here to stay.

 

[Syed1]

yes malik's captaincy sucks, but don't act like sarfraz is any better.

Shows how much you know about cricket.

 

[Chokli]

Shows how much you know about cricket.

clearly more than you.

sarfraz is a horrible captain

 

[Omer2002]

Agreed but i do think its time for Hasnain burst

 

[Pete Rose]

Ramiz slowly but surely transforming in to Juan Elia but without the lyrical talent

 

[HGhazanfar]

clearly more than you.

sarfraz is a horrible captain

I have to agree Sarfraz sucks, for some reason they all try to go through the 5th bowling option once the other teams wickets fall rather than ending the match. Thats why we havent seen a good captain in ages.

 

[Pete Rose]

If we go by numbers than Imam is our best bat? Is he?

In the last ten overs, certainly. You can read, I guess

 

[Pete Rose]

Strike rate of 144.

Yes my bad. Typo

 

[Chokli]

bangladesh asia cup match is a prime example of his horrible captaincy

 

[coy0607]

is Malik a total idiot?

why are the fast bowlers being held back at this point.. Shinwari has only bowled 4 overs

 

[Titan24]

Is Imad's batting and fielding good enough for him to play as a genuine allrounder. Or is his bowling good enough to play as a bowling allrounder ... He will give u 20 runs in batting and bowl you 5-6 quiet overs. Is that we need in a 50 overs game?

As I said in my previous post, he is the best lower order hitter we have so he deserves to be there on his hitting ability alone. He is the best all rounder among the lot as well as the most reliable hitter in the later overs so he is serving two purposed. If you have better option in mind i would love to hear.

 

[HGhazanfar]

In the last ten overs, certainly. You can read, I guess

Like I said wait till he faces death bowlers like Starc, Bumrah .. then you can evaluate his batting yourself.

Did you forget how bad he got exposed during the champions trophy final, the lad was an embarrassment, thank Hafeez otherwise you would be looking something 20-30 runs lower.

Those are good bowlers for any batsman
