Pakistan vs Sri Lanka | 1st ODI | Dubai | Oct 13, 2017 | Sri Lanka innings

Lankan team needs a miracle here. Their batting is garbage.

220 was the max they could chase. They don't have a batsman that can score big hundreds. Unless Pak bowlers bowl pies at them, they are not chasing this.
 
It will be a good competition I think.Srilanka has good hitters
 
Thanks to Babar Zaman's innings we scored a sub-par score... now our bowlers will have to do well.

True. Otherwise considering Kaptaan Sahabs form off-the-shelf, we could have ended somewhere around 250 - most definitely below par.

Kaptaan has been pretty bad but Babar has been very very selfish too.
 
Is Kusal Perera still injured? And also, whatever became of PP's Sri Lankan fans?!
 
Fast bowlers aren't going to get much purchase on this pitch. Learn a thing or two from the Lankans and bring on the spinners.
 
Raees seaming it.

Also just realized he is from Karachi. No wonder he gets undue hate from certain quarters.
 
Sarfi needs to demote himself and send shadab and Hasan before him.
 
Look at the way Lankans are playing... but Bobby fans will have us believe that Bobby sahab alone was holding back the flood gates and the pitch was devil's pit
 
After facing high quality bowling from Bumrah and Kumar, Pakistani trundlers must seem like club bowlers for Sri Lankan openers. :srini
 
SL is favourite because they don't have Shehzad and Babar to waste too many balls
 
Worth remembering that after 3 overs Pakistan had scored a grand total of 5 runs. SL have scored 24.

To put that in context, it took Pakistan 9 overs to reach 27 runs.

:facepalm:

We had the swashbuckling Shehzad and the bombastic Bobby motoring along

Says a lot about how we're missing Sharjeel. FZ has been a brilliant find but Sharjeel was just too good.
 
:akhtar Roman Reigns is on fire these days. Can hopefully only improve with time.
 
Let's see how much Chandi has grown up from the last time we saw him in 2015. Last time I saw him play he looked more like playing for the opposition than for his team.
 
Difference between Raees and Amir is one picks up wickets. The other makes excuses
 
Babar's hundred was the slowest by a Pakistani batsman in the last 5 years...
 
Sarfraz always says 'we are here to play a positive cricket' but then has openers like Shehzad in the side
 
Didn't Rumman get 9/25 recently? Surprised there hasn't been more commotion about it.

Unfortunately he is not from the preferred list of youngsta beauties... and he also hails from Karachi
 
Someone tell Russell Arnold Indians players are not allowed to be mentioned in a Pakistan series.

Never mind Sharjeel, even Azhar would have done better than that.

Pathetic decision to play Shehzad. Two players who would have made a big difference, Sohail and Ashraf, are left to warm the bench.

Calm down Syed bhai, I don't think him being from Karachi has anything to do with it.
 
Hope Rumman gets a 5-fer. He's been playing really well since he got married. :sachin
 
Brilliant bowling from Raees.

Can't believe [MENTION=141557]Chief Destroyer[/MENTION] doesn't rate him.
 
Rumman is a seriously underrated bowler on PP.
