South Africa (270/2) crush Pakistan (269/9) by 8 wickets to level the 3-match ODI series at 1-1

[Asif321]

Embarrassing stuff by Pakistan

 

[Josh]

Lord Faheem getting a phainty

 

[The Bald Eagle]

Thread ban ensuing, final warning for all. Kindly stick to MT discussion

 

[Blackbradman]

Pathetic fielding

 

[Blackbradman]

Poor ball

 

[The Bald Eagle]

Pakistan team getting the same thrashing

 

[BreadPakoda]

SA should have rested QdK.

 

[Rana]

150 in 22.3 overs

Let’s mock “Modrun day kirkit” and “inn-tent”!

 

[Energy]

Match is gone. 10 overs of line/length disciplined bowling was enough to wreck Pakistan batting.

And we all know how unreliable our bowling unit is. Can't land 2 balls on a good length.

 

[Rana]

SA should have rested QdK.

Who’s going to contest Bobsy the King?

 

[Rana]

What an over by match winner

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Strip has definitely eased out under lights.

 

[Asif321]

Srilanka will also have good chance to beat Pakistan in ODIs

 

[Devadwal]

Tough pitch. 150 will be challenging

300 is challenging Total here .

 

[zaidihusain]

What a shame literally...Foreign players are playing fearless cricket and scoring freely in these conditions instead of local players like Babar, Fakhar, Rizwan.

Pakistan as a nation fearlessly mocks fearless cricket

 

[Josh]

It seems like Pakistan won T20 series due to batting 2nd in the last 2 matches, where the dew made it easier for Babar to score. South Africa batting quite well in the little dew that's there.

IYKYK

 

[Rana]

DeZorzi channeling that inner Gayle!

 

[Asif321]

Pakistan ODI cricket is dead since 2019. No real exciting player except may be Saim Ayub . Just boring lot of imam , Shafique , Babar types of players.

 

[zaidihusain]

Pakistan as a nation fearlessly mocks fearless cricket

Players like Babar, Rizwan & Fakhar plays every game like their first game. Time running out for Fakhar as well

 

[Devadwal]

New ODI kaptana smashed by Africa.

 

[Asif321]

Watch Afridi resign from captaincy after couple of series

 

[RyanRyan10]

South Africa 81/0 in 11.3 overs

Salman Agha played a match losing test knock .

A batsman should never play with 65 strike in ODI even after playing more than 100 balls

He took inspiration from Babar and Rizwan

 

[RidiculousMan]

Too easy

 

[Justcrazy]

SA milking Pakistan bowling easily here .

 

[Devadwal]

While all South Africa batsman scoring over 100+ strike rate while your highest Run scorer play with 65 strike rate after playing 100+ balls. @Rana @RyanRyan10 but but sar Agha played a match winning knocks.

 

[Justcrazy]

D Kock is batting very sensibly here.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan batters did not capitalize on this surface , should have got more runs. Babar azam best format is OD but he is still failing in that.

 

[ask_analyse_act]

See it becoming a road when sa bat

Exactly SAFFERs batting at 7.11 RR hammering every bowler outta the park..

Pakistan played more than 25 overs of dot balls.. new captains and coach come and go but the problem still the same...

Every time the fail at dot ball percentage they call it as batting is tough out there the ball is stopping and gripping not coming onto the bat , the same pitch was played by two teams..

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Clear skies today. Will dew heavily later on.

Call was spot on. Enough dew to make a difference

 

[jnaveen1980]

Hitting prowess of SA is next level. They don't even look like hitting violently. Just timing it. 10 sixes

 

[Devadwal]

206/1 in (29)

South Africa would have scored 400 from here had they batted first.

@Rana @RyanRyan10 now compared with Agha who played a Test knock.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Reminds me good old days of Dhawan and Rohit hunting down 200 plus totals against pakistan in Asia cup without breaking sweat

 

[Justcrazy]

129 runs have a partnership so far.

 

[RyanRyan10]

206/1 in (29)

@Rana @RyanRyan10 now compared with Agha who played a Test knock.

Inspired by Babar and Rizwan

 

[The Bald Eagle]

Lol loving Saffers batting, should crush PCT within 35 overs.... unfortunately, the only way to reform these lots

 

[ask_analyse_act]

This is the only reason I like Agha as captain he always fights and has played some match saving innings .

Cant play a match saving innings like this... Rubbish inns , goes to show how much of a score was needed in the 1st inns with the dew in equation later in the night..

 

[Devadwal]

Inspired by Babar and Rizwan

Always hide behind rizbar when you're truly exposed but but sar Agha played a match winning knock sith 65 strike .

 

[Josh]

Why does Rizwan wear short trousers. Looks weird.

 

[Justcrazy]

South Africa need 57 runs from 20 overs.

SA moving along to a 9 wicket thumping victory

 

[RyanRyan10]

Always hide behind rizbar when you're truly exposed but but sar Agha played a match winning knock sith 65 strike .

I don't. But you are a dishonest person so don't deserve any honest response.

 

[RyanRyan10]

Why does Rizwan wear short trousers. Looks weird.

@Rana why?

 

[Devadwal]

Pakistan have the momentum.

I expect Pakistan to win the 2nd ODI and clinch the series.

Why this guy's always predicts wrong .

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

If Afridi is injured then one of Rizwan or Babar should take over the captaincy for the remainder of the game

 

[Justcrazy]

pakistan should have scored minimum 300 on this pitch.

 

[Devadwal]

I don't. But you are a dishonest person so don't deserve any honest response.

You're always hide along with @Rana. You talk about intent but saying Agha played a match winning knock with 65 Strike rate. You're dishonest but its very predictable now.

 

[ask_analyse_act]

At the end of 1st inns , pak players were all smiles thinking that SA was able to put only 263 and we struggled to get there eventually and today we had set 270 as target , we got this yay !!!

QDK and TDZ put the smile into bed forever lol... Serious hammering !!!


they talk about reverse swing to come into play after the 34th over when only one ball will be used... Both of them say np lets finish them off within 34 overs and take that completely out of the equation...

 

[Rana]

@Rana why?

I don’t want to make assumptions but I have a fair idea why he does it.

He is a hardcore follower of his understanding of the “Sunnah”.

Another thing to note is that his “ankle exposure” wasn’t as notable when he was captain+regular in T20s….

But it seems like since the story broke about Hesson not being a fan of his extremist religious views being projected on the dressing room…he’s gone one step ahead with this.

I don’t like religion being weaponised.

 

[Devadwal]

Hundred for QDK. 22 ODI hundreds for him .

 

[Rana]

If Afridi is injured then one of Rizwan or Babar should take over the captaincy for the remainder of the game

No, they should not. They are not exactly Steve Waugh and Shane Warne when it comes to cricket brains

 

[Rajdeep]

I thought De Kock retired from internationals?

@The Bald Eagle

 

[Josh]

Quinton is back with a bang. And two really embarassing reviews by Shaheen

 

[The Bald Eagle]

I thought De Kock retired from internationals?

@The Bald Eagle

He has MS Dhoni genes

 

[Josh]

Quinny has more centuries than Babar. He has been a really gun ODI player

 

[TheNeutralist]

How not to take the DRS Review, perfect example by Pakistan!

 

[ask_analyse_act]

The number of dots

It's like a never ending love story with Pakistan

True .... Only if they accept and work on it, but they accept for the fans and infront of the media... Have they worked on it , they shoud have atleast playing better in 2025... This problem is there ever since Misbah was playing as captain from 2011 onwards... For the last 15 years these guys hv never learned but everytime they learning from mistakes and not repeat them been fed up of hearing the same....

 

[charlie007]

With how he's leaking runs, someone tell Nawaz it's an ODI not T20!

 

[DRsohail]

Pakistan cricket is as trash as its democracy, judiciary , education and the list goes on. Nothing to feel sorry about, just enjoy it.

 

[zaidihusain]

Babar can try QDK kind of strategy. Announce retirement from all formats and come back after 1 year

 

[BreadPakoda]

Quinny has more centuries than Babar. He has been a really gun ODI player

Babar is younger.

 

[Rana]

Babar can try QDK kind of strategy. Announce retirement from all formats and come back after 1 year

Bro Quinny retired having played brilliantly in the 2023 World Cup. He left on a high.

Babar leaving now for a year is nothing more than Hussain Talat leaving for a year.

 

[Rana]

Pakistan cricket is as trash as its democracy, judiciary , education and the list goes on. Nothing to feel sorry about, just enjoy it.

Cry all you want.

Imran Khan started this nonsense.

I’m glad he’s locked up, they won’t let him out..noooo…they won’t let him out.

 

[Asif321]

If Afridi is injured then one of Rizwan or Babar should take over the captaincy for the remainder of the game

And then we will win.?

 

[ask_analyse_act]

Talat is totally garbage player ...we need saud shakeel at number 6

he would have played like how Agha played today.... its serious problem with Pak batters seems like not just Rizwan or Babar... the guy who talks as if he will play at 150+ SR , is struggling to play at 100 SR ever since made as T20I captain lol

 

[Asif321]

Why does Rizwan wear short trousers. Looks weird.

Sunnat

 

[Devadwal]

Babar can try QDK kind of strategy. Announce retirement from all formats and come back after 1 year

Or Pakistan cricket should take a break from international cricket like South Africa cricket of 90s and comeback with a strong system and team . They are currently borderline minnows in every formats.

 

[Josh]

Babar is younger.

Just a year younger and Babar might have a little 1-2 year age fudging too .what explains staying out of form for this long.

 

[Rana]

Sunnat

Is it sunnah to wear short trousers playing sport? Why isn’t it the national trouser size of the Islamic republic of Pakistan cricket team?

 

[Asif321]

Add imam and Shafique as openers and we will have the perfect dud ODI squad

 

[BreadPakoda]

Why did Pak decide to bat first? Chasing is looking easy under lights

 

[Josh]

Sunnat

I should have guessed it. thanks

 

[Asif321]

Is it sunnah to wear short trousers playing sport? Why isn’t it the national trouser size of the Islamic republic of Pakistan cricket team?

Unless it’s really a requirement to wear long trousers then he can’t wear short trousers ofcourse but since it’s not required and doesn’t matter so he is following the sunnah here . Rizwan is a religious person so these little things matter to him compared to not so strict Muslim .

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Breetzke at #4 just feels wrong. Should be batting at #3.

 

[pakistani pride]

Not a bad idea, seriously!

 

[Josh]

Why did Pak decide to bat first? Chasing is looking easy under lights

There was no dew in the first game and Pakistan had a narrow escape chasing the target of 263

 

[pakistani pride]

Sunnat

He is playing a sport....

 

[Rana]

Unless it’s really a requirement to wear long trousers then he can’t wear short trousers ofcourse but since it’s not required and doesn’t matter so he is following the sunnah here . Rizwan is a religious person so these little things matter to him compared to not so strict Muslim .

I see.

I also find it odd how Rizwan’s interpretation of implementing Sunnah or religious optics also evolve the more cricket he plays and the more exposure he gets.

Such as the Tasbeeh around his arms. Or to tape up betting companies from his shirts.

It’s as if he gets more religious the more fame he gains?

 

[Asif321]

Is it sunnah to wear short trousers playing sport? Why isn’t it the national trouser size of the Islamic republic of Pakistan cricket team?

by that logic everyone should have skull cap and beard . Following Sunnah is a personal choice , it is encouraged but not a thing you can impose on anyone. Rizwan does follow, good on him he has his own choice . As long as he follows all the rules .

I see.

well i can’t comment on what he does in private life . If he is doing for “
Show off “ then indeed this is all waste. But if he really is doing just to follow sunnah where ever he can then okay good on him .

 

[Nasty Naz]

South Africa showing Pakistan how to play in their own backyard. What an incredibly horrific display from Pakistan.
