Pakistan vs South Africa | Match 30, World Cup | Lord's | June 23, 2019 | South Africa innings

PAK's NRR is too poor - remember, in tie breaker, it's NRR first, then H2H; so even if PAK beats NZ (loses every game), still on 11 points each, Kiwis will go through. IND will qualify by next game (again 11 points with better NRR); Aussies need 1 win to be out of reach. Left is only Poms - who won't lose 4 games at stress. Even if there is a tie or rain (provided PAK is on 11 points), Poms are well ahead in NRR - their loss to PAK comes later than NRR.

3 down - game should be over.

Eng wins 1/3; Pakistan wins next 4 including this. Pakistan qualifies outside of NRR.
 
Kept low and Markram is not the best player of spin. He has been a hamster against Rohit, Dhawan and Kohli.

Your are clueless here !

Indians are beast against any spinner in the world. Tell me which Pakistani spinner has been effective vs Indian in recent times. Even Ajmal (before action remodeling) was smoked for plenty by Indians.

Your best spinner ever Saqlain was thrashed by the lacks of Sehwag and Sachin in the later part of his career.

You can't keep Indian matches as a benchmark for recognizing talent in Pakistan. I know they were awful against India for last 2 decades (except CT final) but india is not the only team in world to be compared.

England have three games left. They have to lose two out of these three to be effectively knocked out.

Pakistan winning four matches sounds far-fetched, but England is the only team in danger of missing out.
 
Extremely careless from Sarfraz. Lost a review here for nothing.
 
Yep. SA are out. Thank you for coming! Lots of soul-searching to do for Cricket South Africa. Maybe read Rabada 's interview about how professional cricket shouldn't have quotas. Might help. :mv

They deserved this for not selecting the best modern day batsman they have ever produced for a tournament like this.
 
What an idiot sarafraz he literally went up cause he appealed too hard and thought now that it’s not given he’d look like a fool not to go up

We got Amla with the review right?
 
Pathetic captain can't even get drs decision right

Even Suhail at first slip was saying to review it and De Plesis made a gesture that it was his bat handle clicking...

So in this instance no it was not pathetic from Safaraz
 
Yeah but nobody really cares about that. India Pak is what everyone watches, some people legit tune in once every 4 years just for that match.

That's upto them. Anyone following a bit of cricket knows that Pak vs Ind in a WC is going to be a one sided game.

It's the most overrated fixture from 2013 on.
 
HAahahhahaha can sense your desperation now that Pak is winning... Must hurt that Karachi boy is captain Keep crying :))) :))) :)))

We’re in a winning position because of individual performances and not because of Sarfraz non-existent captaincy skills.

We got only one tough game left against kiwis and it is possible that they can loose the next game ,while england have very tough matches left and it is over possible they can loose 2 games out of 3.It wont be easy for the english batsman to score against kuldeep ,chahal,starc,cummins,boult etc.
 
I have to say, field settings have been much better today except not having a gully for Amir at the start when he was swinging it
 
Imad bowling has been poor , He should concentrate on his batting and look to become a batsman who can bowl a bit.
 
2 consecutive overs for 6 runs... not good need to keep turning the screw

Sarfraz will always get credit when team is doing well otherwise there must be grouping against him. Lol some people have IQ level of 5 years old
 
You know other teams with batsmen like these I would be worried that they will take the game away from Pakistan but South Africa LOL they are even worst than us serial chokers
 
What we have against India NZ/SA have that against us.

nah

SA with their larger quotas have been terrible in ICC tournaments for a while now.

CT' 13 -- lost to Ind, Eng (2 wins in 5 matches)
WC' 15 -- lost to Ind, Pak and NZ (4 wins in 7 matches)
CT' 17 -- lost to Ind, Pak (1 win in 3 matches)
WC' 19 -- lost to Eng, Ind, BD, NZ (1 win in 6 matches)

Pakistan's performance is not necessarily based on the opposition strength. But yeah, as fans we have to be hopeful.
 
Fielding falling apart once again. Easy singles and a customary drop catch.

Never change Pakistan, never change.

Wipes the floor with the Akmal clan
 
Not one delivery turned. Shadab keeps on darting. These two have picked him now. Will be expensive
 
Taking too easy allowing easy singles and now catch drop
 
Good shot from Faf. Shadab needs to try a wrong one
