Instead of making excuses after today's match maybe fans should just admit SL are better..
 
How did that miss the stumps, ? !!! Talha has impressed everyone with pace and control. Real good find..

anything will scare the indian batsman did you see dhonis eyes when they were balling bouncers at him yesterday like frog i thought they were going to pop any minute :)))
 
Junaid Khan was Conistently Over 140kph in ODI Series

But After Injury Happened to him in 5th ODI
His pace is Down

Expect Junaid to Bowl at 140kph Again in ASIA CUP After 1 month Rest
 
Herath will play well today, he is a decent bat and has had a quite series

Lol. No, don't change the topic. Junaid is trundling and you can't hide it. 126- 128k ...scared the hell out of Sri Lankan batsmen. :junaid:junaid look at the aggression on junaid 's face...woah...scary..:junaid
 
Wow AZHAR, i would drop asad, manzoor and hafeez, since they both had a decent second run, but not Azhar just for the amazing catches he takes.

We should use his leg spin more, i think he will become a good allrounder for us.
 
can Pakistan make a game out of this? i would love to see them going for the kill even if they end up on the losing side.
 
Shaminda Eranga averages 5 runs less than Pakistan's wicketkeeper.

I expect him to stroke his way to another 20 odd runs.
 
If Pakistan get last 2 wickets in next 5 overs then will be interesting but don't see Pakistan pulling this one of. This batting line up would struggle to chase runs at 3-4 rpo so anything 5 an over seems too much unless Shehzad plays a quick big innings and Misbah going for his shots but going to be too much because likes of, Manzoor, Shafiq and Azhar ali will struggle to bat at a strike rate of even 50 they will get out playing a stupid slog as they can't play proper cricket shots when attacking because they only know one way to bat. Imagine having Maqsood or Umar Akmal playing this game it could've been a interesting chase but looks impossible task for these batsmen who only know hot to bat in one mode.

i dont care how fast hes bowling.......or not bowling it seems your the one whose got a bee in his bonnet about it.....your a closet junaid fan admit it :junaid
 
Pakistan will bat for the draw there is no way they'll go for this.
 
Fortune favors the brave: Pakistan should open with Rehman/Sarfaraz as pinch hitters

If Pakistan team goes the standard way of seeing new ball... we may end up with 50 odd runs in 1st 20-25 overs with loss of couple of wickets. After that Pakistan will battle whole day to survive for a draw.

The only way for Pakistan to win is positive start from word go. E.g. set a target for 100 in 1st 15 overs when ball is new..

May b sending one from lower order as an opening bat can be a risk worth taking..
 
Shouldn't have dropped Hafeez, he would have been great in this situation.
 
Eh? How about no? Go with Shehzad and tell him to play his natural T20 game. Khurram can rotate strike etc.

So tell me Mr Einstein.

How do batsmen who struggle to bat at 4 rpo even in ODI's will bat at 5 plus runs per over in a test to suddenly snatch the win :13:

Am I missing something here?

Pakistan should go for the chase even though I know we won't be able to chase it but give it a try even if we get out for 150 and loose I wouldn't mind but be happy at least we tried to win the game.

Exactly all our batsmen in our test lineup only know one way to bat this team would struggle to even make 250 in a whole day and asking for 300 in 2 sessions is too much unless you had some firepower in the batting lineup. That's why we need Akmal and Maqsood in our test team. We can't just have all same type batsmen who bat in one mode.

Even though I know we can't chase it I would like our team to make a effort chasing it. If we loose trying to win the game I would be happy instead of a draw.

Average score for Pakistan in last 20-30 Odis.

230.

That is for ODIs.

And you expect them to win a test with no fielding restrictions, no power plays at 5 rpo ?

Am I really talking to you here?

Lol, this must be the first time Pakistani fans don't care about the pace of a fast bowler . When Indian bowlers bowl 130s, they are crap because he is an Indian. Lol. I will open a thread on this. Lets see what excuse you guys come up with.lol..

Dude stop trolling here and bump whatever thread you want.

Your bowlers are horrible and will always be live with it.
 
If we want to chase this then strike must be rotated and if we don't want to chase this then good bye to Pakistan test cricket.

They will definitely go for it even though it's difficult. Don't see Misbah just going for a draw will give it a try if we 6 down with our main batsmen gone then they will go for draw. Misbah should come at 4 and keep Shafiq at 5 and make Azhar ali go down the order at 7 because he can only block and can't even get singles. Shehzad, Younis and Misbah have to play big innings but going to be a big ask.
 
I fail to understand why people bring indian players in a Pakistan game and vice versa. Is it really hard to enjoy the game of cricket as a neutral fan?

Ever heard of umesh, varun, Rahul shukla, pawan suyal? They are all capable of bowling 145 plus. Btwn, talha ain't bowling at 140 plus, lol. He is more of 132-137 avg speed.

good idea i just hope we make a good start manzoor can score fast too.
 
dont let them settle yaar , get talha and he will finish this drama
 
Shehzad, Manzoor, Younis, Misbah, Shafiq that should be top 5 and then maybe bring a tailender at 6 or even ahead of Shafiq to have a slog if it don't pay of we have Azhar ali and sarfraz who can then dig in for a draw which will suit them and they won't offer much anyways.
