Pakistan vs Sri Lanka | 2nd T20I | Abu Dhabi | October 27, 2017 | Pakistan Innings

[hadi123]

Momentum is clearly with us after a crazy fightback in the field. 125 to win to take an unassailable series lead.

 

[Syed1]

Lanka would be hoping Sir Shehzad plays long innings.

 

[Sadevdesai]

Should be a relatively EASY chase !!!!!!!!!

 

[Plumb]

Need a flying start from Zaman. Been waiting all series...

 

[Usman Chadda]

Ahmed Shehzad. The only hope for Lanka today.

 

[JibranAnsari]

shehzad to shut up his hater tonight

 

[another drop catch]

Now arm chair experts will say
"so called best attack can't even pluck out last batsmen in last three balls"

 

[Plumb]

I hope Faheem sent up the order so that he can prove that he is the fast bowling all rounder we been waiting for...

 

[Sirris]

Yesterday to chase 103 runs it took us almost 18 overs. If SL get Fakhar and Babar out early again then they are favorites for sure.

 

[MMHS]

Today, PAK probably'll win much easier - it's a better track today and out field looks slightly faster.

 

[Rana]

The innings has not even started and people are already wishing Shahzad bad luck. Pakistan fans and Real Madrid fans

 

[another drop catch]

shehzad to shut up his hater tonight

hater or haters all across the globe

 

[babajee]

Hoping for Fakhar and Babar to take us home.

Hopefully Shehzads “talent” keeps him in a rough patch

 

[Madplayer]

Today, PAK probably'll win much easier - it's a better track today and out field looks slightly faster.

The boundaries are very big.

 

[Langau]

Hopefully fahim will be sent at 3

 

[MMHS]

The boundaries are very big.

That was a factor before Arthur joined - now players know that in such cases (long, but slow out field) they'll have run; run hard to convert singles in to doubles (or somewhere it'll hurt). These same bunch were comfortably outside 10 last year in terms of fielding - today they have hit the timber direct about 5 times; do you think it's by chance?

 

[Rana]

Shazzy looking intent today

 

[Rana]

Looking like they want to bat today!

 

[babajee]

Fakhar to go big today

 

[Langau]

Give sanjaya to mickey and azhar and then SL will have a very good bowler

 

[Rana]

Shot shazzy boy!

 

[Titan24]

Now that is some shot by Shehzad

 

[babajee]

Shoottt by Shezzy

 

[Rana]

Lovely shape

 

[Titan24]

Any news on our new product Usman Shinwari?

 

[Rana]

Danny Trolling Shazzy hard

 

[Rana]

Wow what a blast by Fakhar...

 

[Rana]

This was a good shot!

 

[7sins]

Any news on our new product Usman Shinwari?

No news i hope he is not injured or anything

 

[Rana]

Every shot is a helicopter shot by Shazzy

 

[zn426]

Shezzy came to play for another 5 matches in the side today!

Boundaries everywhere, they're clearly looking to close this out.

 

[Titan24]

Fakhar changed his broken bat which was orange with this green golden one, are both same models if not shouldnt the bats players carry be same?

 

[7sins]

What happened to shehzad today he will fire today and will play next 5 innings doing tuk tuk

 

[Langau]

Amir coming in with a bat for fakhar.
Something new coz never seen him as a drink carrier

 

[Rana]

Thats 100% out!

 

[Rana]

Oh my days!

 

[Usman Chadda]

Ahmed Shehzad. Seriously man. Just when Fakhar was looking good.

 

[Titan24]

No news i hope he is not injured or anything

Commentator was saying its a cramp or niggle in the back. If its just that then its no biggy

 

[Rana]

UAE tracks clearly not suiting Fakhar....

 

[zn426]

Why would you go for a third run in that situation when you're clearly on pace?

 

[Langau]

We have our own stokes ( fahim )
Now we have to bring in our pandya ( Ammad )

 

[Rana]

LBW, Babar's average taking a huge tumble!!

 

[ExpressPacer]

WHY DON'T THEY REVIEW IT man

 

[DRsohail]

uae tracks does not suit baabr lolz.

 

[7sins]

WHY DON'T THEY REVIEW IT man

No review in t20

 

[kingusama92]

WHY DON'T THEY REVIEW IT man

No reviews.

 

[Rana]

Why would you go for a third run in that situation when you're clearly on pace?

I dont think they showed the run out properly, either one of them would have been run out for the third run

 

[Titan24]

WHY DON'T THEY REVIEW IT man

No reviews in this T20 series

 

[Red Devil]

Awful umpiring.

 

[Sirris]

Shehzad with a positive start while SL have caught the big fishes.

Shehzad to see the team home!

 

[kingusama92]

Shocking decision.

Absolute rubbish by the umpire.

 

[ego-gambit]

Russel Arnold dreaming of 150+ score from SL when they were 66 for 1

 

[Markhor]

Poor umpiring decision.

 

[7sins]

Third class umpires thanks icc

 

[Titan24]

Pretty poor running from Ahmed

 

[bujhee kom]

Pk may lose this.

That said some apparent Pk fans here are comical. Should admit their true colors. Even I cheer Pk with more honesty than them.

 

[Rana]

Shazzy needs to score something here now, he cant seem to do anything right these days!

 

[Abdullah719]

 

[bujhee kom]

No reviews in this T20 series

None in any T20s.

 

[Titan24]

I hope Fahim gets promoted or atleast one of Sarfaraz or Imad comes slightly up the order

 

[Rana]

Please dont go into your shell now Shazzy

 

[Hasan123]

[MENTION=79064]MMHS[/MENTION] Hafeez protecting himself by not coming in ahead of Malik?

 

[ego-gambit]

Now malik will make this match boring

 

[Titan24]

None in any T20s.

Yes till now

 

[Rana]

Malik will look to run down the fast bowlers to third man...our big hitter

 

[Hasan123]

Shehzad needs to play a big one to make up for the run out

 

[MMHS]

[MENTION=79064]MMHS[/MENTION] Hafeez protecting himself by not coming in ahead of Malik?

He doesn't put him in order - you have to ask this who played him at 4 in WI and 5 in CT, now again at 5.

 

[RobinJay]

We'll win this anyway, we have plenty of batting, but poor decision. Babar didn't have a single single-digit score before yesterday's game, and now he has two in two.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Shehzad will be man of the match

 

[Rana]

Good stuff here from Shahzad. Hes been better than his opening partner Zaman 5 games in a row....


5 times!!! booker T cue spinnerooney!!

 

[Titan24]

It looks like one or both of micky and sarfaraz have told Ahmed if you dont perform today some one else is going to play in the third T20 ��

 

[Sirris]

I hope Fahim gets promoted or atleast one of Sarfaraz or Imad comes slightly up the order

Let's hope so. He must be feeling pretty confident and positive after the hatrick.

 

[MMHS]

Who is the umpire - should be sacked. Doesn't know basics of LBW, neither mechanics.

 

[Shinwari Khan]

WHAT a beautiful hat trick by Fahim!! Wasim Akram in the making!!!!!

 

[Hasan123]

Malik is the key here.

 

[DRsohail]

He doesn't put him in order - you have to ask this who played him at 4 in WI and 5 in CT, now again at 5.

shahzadlooks confident,better than fakhar zaman,his run out shows pressure and pressure for not living upto the expectations.

 

[another drop catch]

We'll win this anyway, we have plenty of batting, but poor decision. Babar didn't have a single single-digit score before yesterday's game, and now he has two in two.

I haven't seen him getting out for zero in LOIs
if true this is amazing record for Pakistan

 

[Titan24]

Who is the umpire - should be sacked. Doesn't know basics of LBW, neither mechanics.

May be he thought ball was coming back in but, ofcourse he was wrong

 

[Hasan123]

Great running from Malik. Seems to get better with age.
