Pakistan vs India | Asia Cup: Super Four | Dubai | Sep 23, 2018 | Pakistan Innings

[aukhan]

All credit to malik. Marvellously played so far.

 

[Invincible Gujjar]

and specialist captain got out after playing below average innings

 

[Hbomb00]

OUT!! is it good or bad I can't decide!

 

[Asif321]

Sarfraz goes had to hit out now . Need fresh legs

 

[imshally81]

Well played Sarfaraz.. After long time..

 

[Watsupdoc]

At least he scored more than 40 for once.

 

[desi_launda]

but Malik can still get Pak to 250!

 

[theariezman]

Sarfraz getting ready to go big

and he is gone.

 

[Fahdi]

Soft dismissal. But a good/decent innings in the situation.

 

[bluevision]

Blessing in disguise for Pakistan. Sarfraz's dismissal that is.

 

[ekpakistani]

Sarfraz scored 44 more than I was expecting from him.. Well played

 

[Usman Chadda]

Scrappy but fighting knock by Sarfraz. Good partnership. Still doesn’t look in best of forms, but good effort nonetheless.

 

[alized]

Man it hurts to see Sarfaraz sad

 

[Mueez]

What a shame!

 

[Syed1]

Well played Saifi... let paindus bark

 

[Fineline]

At least he scored more than 40 for once.

Yeah we can give him that!

 

[BlackShadow]

Kuldeep gets rewarded for maintaining pressure.

 

[Something]

Sarfraz really should've scored a bit quicker. Good on him to stabilize the batting a bit but still he was too slow. Need a performance from Asif Ali now.

 

[IAJ]

Well played captain. Was tiring so not a bad time to get out.

 

[castortroy]

Literally all the pak batters have given it away.

This is a good track

 

[Asif321]

Sarfraz did what was needed there now time for another gear so we need Asif

 

[imshally81]

and specialist captain got out after playing below average innings

 

[Boi]

Good time for Asif to come in. Play yourself in then cut loose.

 

[Nelson on]

Need Asif to come good today

 

[gani999]

Well I didn't know that. Anyway, it's either Rohit or Dhawan or bust regardless of that stat.

Why don't you remain blissfully ignorant and wait till the end of the match before judging then?

 

[Usman Chadda]

Kuldeep gets rewarded for maintaining pressure.

Your spinners have been quite lame today tbh.

 

[imshally81]

Well played Saifi... let paindus bark

Spot on...

 

[WhenSultansBowled]

India should wrap it up easily

Not surprised on how things are going. Final rematch, Pak to win

 

[Invincible Gujjar]

Need to score 100 at least in last 10 overs.

 

[Mueez]

Good innings by the skipper.

Showed some positive glimpses in his batting after many failures.

 

[Kashmirilion]

Haha specialist captain does it again. [MENTION=138254]Syed1[/MENTION] Bhai you are one of my fave posters but you really need to stop favouring sarfraz so much.

 

[Ab Fan]

Hope Pakistan scores 250+ and we get to watch a good game.

 

[Something]

Well played Saifi... let paindus bark

It wasn't really a good innings. SR of 66. He did okay to keep the partnership going but Haris Sohail or Azhar Ali could've also played a similar innings. He fell short of expectations and didn't accelerate when it was time to even though he should've been settled in by now.

 

[ARK Rafay]

Hmm. Well played captain. Asif Ali has the perfect opportunity to show his game now. I would be so angry if he gets out now after hitting 1 six.

 

[alized]

Asif Ali will FEAST on Bumrah

 

[Markhor]

Sarfraz did what was needed there now time for another gear so we need Asif

This. Sarfraz helped rebuild with Malik but now need some fireworks from Asif if we're to reach 250.

 

[Shafi]

Should sent Hasan Ali to hit 3-4 6s

 

[BlackShadow]

Ashwin and Kuldeep will be a better spin duo than KulCha.

 

[Syed1]

It wasn't really a good innings. SR of 66. He did okay to keep the partnership going but Haris Sohail or Azhar Ali could've also played a similar innings. He fell short of expectations and didn't accelerate when it was time to even though he should've been settled in by now.

Learn cricket before talking child

 

[Invincible Gujjar]

it was awful innings from an awful player

 

[InziRules]

Come on, it was a good knock. As if anyone else in this team bar Malik was surviving those overs of spin

 

[Something]

Really need to start looking at replacements for Sarfraz now

 

[Fahdi]

Not a good innings until he brings his strike rate up to 85/90

Still a decent innings. The recovery was important. Doesn't absolve his horrendous record in the recent past though.

 

[sadida97]

Learn cricket before talking child

calm down man

 

[B_Positive]

Asif Ali should show everyone why he is selected.....

 

[LegendAli]

People keep telling that Indian middle order batting will be exposed!!!! The reality is older Dhoni himself is better than any of our batsman

He's not better than current Malik, nice try though.

 

[Something]

Come on, it was a good knock. As if anyone else in this team bar Malik was surviving those overs of spin

Just because someone else played bad you're willing to let him go? What sort of an excuse is that? He should've looked to stay on and accelerate his innings. He got out at a strike rate of 66. It wasn't a very good knock.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Need a quick fire 50 from Asif here.

 

[bluevision]

Hurricane 4s and 6s... Sohail the legend or RR

 

[Mueez]

Ab ayega maza.... Hopefully

 

[imshally81]

it was awful innings from an awful player

Then you didn't have any idea.. When sarfaraz came to bat..

 

[Yoddha]

Need to score 100 at least in last 10 overs.

Off bumrah bhuvi? Keep dreaming. Bumrah is the best LoI fast bowler ever. Only malinga challenges him

 

[BlackShadow]

Your spinners have been quite lame today tbh.

Kuldeep has been quite good given the track.

 

[Rayyman]

Challo maaro

 

[Fahdi]

Oye Asif dubara na out karayi bhai

 

[alized]

Looks like India doesn’t want to get their Damat OUT

 

[Something]

Learn cricket before talking child

Yes. You're right. Cricket is all about batting at a strike rate of 60's. Let's get Azhar Ali and Asad Shafiq back in the team to score 40 odd runs off 80 balls and we will have a match winning team according to your expert cricking knowledge, uncle ji this isn't 1980's anymore. Get with the times.

 

[alized]

Ali Ali go Ali!! It’s your time!

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Need 80 runs off the last 10 overs.

 

[Hbomb00]

We're 2 runs more than our previous target hahaha

 

[Something]

Then you didn't have any idea.. When sarfaraz came to bat..

Silly excuse considering Malik came to bat at the same time.

 

[JaDed]

If Dhoni had played an innings like SK Indian posters would had ripped him.apart, but SK is being lauded by Pak posters.

 

[B_Positive]

81 in last 10 with 6 wickets in hand... Cmon boys...

 

[BlackShadow]

Off bumrah bhuvi? Keep dreaming. Bumrah is the best LoI fast bowler ever. Only malinga challenges him

Would love to see some tulleybaazi against Bumrah here.

 

[Third Man]

Hurricane 4s and 6s... Sohail the legend or RR

That was rameez

 

[Markhor]

Our running between the wickets tend to go haywire against India. No need !

 

[alized]

If Dhoni had played an innings like SK Indian posters would had ripped him.apart, but SK is being lauded by Pak posters.

Who is SK?

 

[Invincible Gujjar]

Off bumrah bhuvi? Keep dreaming. Bumrah is the best LoI fast bowler ever. Only malinga challenges him

Best fast bowler ever?? are you out of your mind? and malinga is second best?

 

[Kashmirilion]

If Dhoni had played an innings like SK Indian posters would had ripped him.apart, but SK is being lauded by Pak posters.

I think you are confusing sarfraz Ahmed with sarfraz khan.

 

[Something]

If Dhoni had played an innings like SK Indian posters would had ripped him.apart, but SK is being lauded by Pak posters.

It was a pathetic innings. Only idiots are lauding him.

 

[B_Positive]

Looks like India doesn’t want to get their Damat OUT

Once Sania said " I want my husband to score runs and India to win "

 

[JaDed]

Who is SK?

I think you are confusing sarfraz Ahmed with sarfraz khan.

Sorry in quick mobile type Sarfaraz

 

[Something]

Still a decent innings. The recovery was important. Doesn't absolve his horrendous record in the recent past though.

Nah man. If you're going to play like this then you need to stay till the end. There's no point in scoring 40 off 80 or whatever and then getting out. This is what Asad Shafiq and Azhar Ali used to do.

 

[LegendAli]

If Dhoni had played an innings like SK Indian posters would had ripped him.apart, but SK is being lauded by Pak posters.

tbh it was a pretty mediocre inning, nothing to be proud of, took his sweet time to get in and still throws away his wicket barely scratching to make it to 40s.

Need a solid inning in the near distant future or else just needs to be sent home for good considering his age.

 

[mak36]

Great innings from Sarfi under pressure.

Stage is set for Asif.

 

[Usman Chadda]

You can sense the pitch doesn’t have much pace looking at Sarfraz’s failure to time that inside out cover drive. Nawaz should cause India problems if he keeps his head.

 

[happydavy]

The number of times Pakistan batsmen hit single deliveries directly to fielders can be very frustrating to watch. It's a clear case of lack of hard work and practise.

 

[Kashmirilion]

It was a pathetic innings. Only idiots are lauding him.

I wouldn't say was pathetic innings thats far fetched at 58-3 he done well but the last few overs he's batted slow jus when he needed to kick on hits a poor shot.

 

[Rahul1]

I'm confused. On one hand i obviously want us to win while on the other hand i want this army of grandpas to get brutally exposed.

 

[Asif321]

Time for Asif to show his talent stage is set for him
