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

[ExpressPacer]

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.

I disagree. I don't like Shehzad but I'd have him over Azhar DESPITE his CT heroics. Azhar doesn't belong in the ODI team man. Both are equally bad but I'd still have Shehzad over him because he's shown hints of aggression in the past, Azhar has always been the same. Maybe not selfish like Shehzad though.

Another Beauty..

 

[Rana]

No need to worry as long as you have Rumman Raees

 

[Hamza_]

Whatta jaffa

 

[aukhan]

Rumman Raees

great

 

[waleed88]

Chandimal still looks like he plays for the opposition more

 

[waleed88]

On the other hand Junaid Khan looks to be bowling in a parallel dimension

 

[Rayyman]

Hasan Ali hasn't even bowled yet

Can't wait to see him. Should come on soon.

 

[ManFan]

Roman Reigns delivering the Superman punch!!! [MENTION=46929]shaz619[/MENTION]

 

[Titan24]

Rumman isnt letting us feel the absence of amir

 

[JibranAnsari]

Swing overs are over, its hassan ali time.

 

[Madplayer]

Rumman getting Raees in his wicket column

Good one. Clever.

 

[sshakir411]

Rumman has surprised me every time he has played for Pakistan. Hoping he gets more wickets.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Whats up with the stuffed toys man

 

[Syed1]

On the other hand Junaid Khan looks to be bowling in a parallel dimension

Might want to watch the actual match rather than following

 

[waleed88]

If it keeps going like this Rumman Raees will probably reach the full tally of Amir's CT wickets in one match.

Shehzad would never have been able to play the innings that Azhar did in the final, both in terms of runs as well as the strike-rate.

Don't get me wrong. I don't think Azhar should stay in the ODI team but at least he actually plays for the team.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Rumman isnt letting us feel the absence of amir

Agree.He’s more than making up for it like the CT semi

 

[waleed88]

Might want to watch the actual match rather than following on cricinfo

3 overs for 18 runs no wicket. Willow cricket live stream

 

[DRsohail]

almost gottam..

 

[BunnyRabbit]

Chandimal appeared to argue with the umpire with the lbw call

Did anyone else see chandimal when given lbw seemed to be having a stern conversation with shozab raza who gave him out, and after drs showed him to be out, shozab raza seemed to be replying back to him firmly. Is it me or did anyone else see that as well?

 

[Plumb]

I smell another wicket....

 

[Syed1]

3 overs for 18 runs no wicket. Willow cricket live stream

2 boundaries due to edges through slip cordon

 

[Kashmirilion]

Junaid has bowled well barring that one over and to his credit there was a drop at the deep which went for 4!

 

[another drop catch]

4 runs in last 3 overs

 

[Syed1]

19 off 4 overs for Junaid

 

[Arham_PakFan]

I expect a reprimand after the match for Chandimal

 

[waleed88]

2 boundaries due to edges through slip cordon

Saw those but he's not swinging it like RUmman.

 

[aukhan]

Raees has improved so much

PSL stint with Wasim has helped him alot.

 

[waleed88]

Raees has improved so much

PSL stint with Wasim has helped him alot.

Maybe Junaid will find it useful too, since he going to be under him in Multan Sultans

 

[Kashmirilion]

What a shot ala sharjeel

 

[DRsohail]

no swing now spinner is neeeded..hafeez..

 

[asadee]

Time for Hasan I think

 

[ExpressPacer]

Hafeez bowling like Ajmal lol

 

[aukhan]

Maybe Junaid will find it useful too, since he going to be under him in Multan Sultans

I have given up on him. There is no hope.

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

SL dont have the batting depth to chase this, chandimal would have been perfect anchor..

 

[Rayyman]

Chandimal was plumb tbh.

 

[DRsohail]

goood move..

 

[DRsohail]

squared him up

 

[Rayyman]

Where is Mendis yaar. He is on my fantasy team.

 

[LastManstanding]

Hafeez is definitely chucking.

 

[Adnan_Ilyas]

Bit early for Hassan Ali isn't it?

 

[Syed1]

It wasn't almost.. it WAS a 140kph delivery... Uff Khudaya Rambo kya pi ke aya hai aj???

 

[Syed1]

What's up with the speeds being in MPH.... can't the PCB do anything right?

 

[Mamoon]

Raees should be a fixture in the LOI teams. I have always liked his attitude. He is a better bowler than Junaid and gives his 100% every time unlike Amir.

Hasan, Amir and Raees with Shinwari as backup. Junaid needs to be booted out for good as soon as possible.

 

[Syed1]

I thought that was CLOSEEE

 

[Shafi]

Need couple of wickets

 

[DRsohail]

Hafeez is definitely chucking.

should be reported but ICC is doing harm to our cricket by not reporting him..really..

 

[hadi123]

I thought that was CLOSEEE

Yeah surprised they didn't review; as back leg was so close to stumps.

 

[DRsohail]

Raees should be a fixture in the LOI teams. I have always liked his attitude. He is a better bowler than Junaid and gives his 100% every time unlike Amir.

Hasan, Amir and Raees with Shinwari as backup. Junaid needs to be booted out for good as soon as possible.

what about giving him a chance in SA test series if happens??

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

SL batting looking clueless against Hafeez spins

 

[Mamoon]

Both Junaid and Hafeez need to be reported for suspect actions.

 

[Mamoon]

what about giving him a chance in SA test series if happens??

It is a good idea. In SA you need bowlers who can swing the ball conventionally, Wahab will be a waste there.

 

[pkwdpassion]

Loving the contest, Bowling is what makes Pakistan a dangerous side but brave batting by Lankans playing shots off Raees bowling under pressure.

Sri Lanka is fighting against a tough opponent. Raees showing Inzamam his another injustice by picking on half-fit Amir over him in Tests which led to shameful defeat. Fantastic seam position and out swing by Raees.

 

[DRsohail]

Both Junaid and Hafeez need to be reported for suspect actions.

hafeez should be and for u both lolzzz,,i am quoting u much these days....

 

[Mamoon]

Raees has character. He replaced Amir in the CT semifinal and there were no nerves at all.

 

[Syed1]

Bhai koi Mamoon ko jaldi se quote kardo

 

[DRsohail]

hafeezzzzz....

 

[DRsohail]

Bhai koi Mamoon ko jaldi se quote kardo

i am doing it dont worry.

 

[Rana]

disastrous stuff by Thiranga

 

[Syed1]

i am doing it dont worry.

You are doing a service to all of Pakistan

 

[DRsohail]

quote karnay ka thaika mera ha aaj...

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

wickets coming

 

[Rana]

I have a feeling this may be the last time we ever see Hafeez bowl

 

[DRsohail]

i was smelling a wicket thats and it happened...

 

[Majestic_Inzi]

there you go...

 

[Syed1]

CT win being less and less fluky with each passing minute

 

[DRsohail]

I have a feeling this may be the last time we ever see Hafeez bowl

willl not mind it at all..

 

[another drop catch]

hafeeez is back

 

[ExpressPacer]

Shehzad would never have been able to play the innings that Azhar did in the final, both in terms of runs as well as the strike-rate.

Don't get me wrong. I don't think Azhar should stay in the ODI team but at least he actually plays for the team.

True. I see your point of view.

 

[another drop catch]

kushal mendis is the only hope now

 

[Mamoon]

Bhai koi Mamoon ko jaldi se quote kardo

Kyun bhai, kya "CT winners" SL se bhi harengay kya? Series karwao top teams se phir pata chalega. SL se tu ODIs hamesha se jeet-tay arahay hain.

 

[mmkextreme_1]

I have a feeling this may be the last time we ever see Hafeez bowl

is he chucking?

 

[asadee]

Junaid looks a bit like Djokovic

 

[Syed1]

Hasan bowling too early for my liking. His utility is after the 20th over

 

[ExpressPacer]

Reverse for Hasan. Bowling in the 140's and the ball is moving loads.

 

[ExpressPacer]

Woah, 144 KPH.

 

[ExpressPacer]

Junaid looks a bit like Djokovic

lol absolutely not

 

[Mamoon]

is he chucking?

Blatantly.

 

[babajee]

Hasan ali .. 144kph
