Pakistan vs Zimbabwe | 2nd ODI | Lahore | 29th May | Zimbabwe innings

[MenInG]

Close victory in the 1st ODI, but Zimbabwe looking a little depleted today.

We wait for the toss

 

[Da_Future_Knick]

Hoping for Anwar Ali to sit this one out and make way for Junaid Khan

 

[Mir jibran]

same team pakistan bats first

 

[Ahson8]

same team pakistan bats first

PAK is bowling first (surprisngly)

 

[#GreenRoars]

Unchanged Pakistan bowl

 

[m.shah]

Pak unchanged lol

 

[#GreenRoars]

same team pakistan bats first

i think bowling not batting

 

[m.shah]

Why is Anwar Ali being so preferred??

 

[PakPlayer]

We have too many bowling options again and therefore our batting after 6 is made up of all rounders. Would have been better to drop Asad and Anwar Ali for Babar and Shezad

 

[axl100mph]

Not again. The same old boring, ugly batsmen playing

 

[BigBoy123]

WTH first of all Pakistan is bowling first
And secondly sami is playing:/

 

[b.lesner]

kyle jarvis was big blow to zimbabwe bowling and also tendai chatara but why dont they play shingi masakadza , i think shingi maskadza and tendia chatara are the way forward.

 

[Mir jibran]

PAK is bowling first (surprisngly)

sorry mistyped

 

[Bashira_taeli]

LOL the team is unchanged.

 

[umer187]

So we will have to bear Sami and Anwar with the new ball again!

 

[saeedhk]

Same squad!

Pak cricket is hopeless.

 

[umer187]

kyle jarvis was big blow to zimbabwe bowling and also tendai chatara but why dont they play shingi masakadza , i think shingi maskadza and tendia chatara are the way forward.

they play s masakadza in tests only

 

[b.lesner]

but i think shingi has better pace than others

 

[jog_1]

Why would you bowl first?

Zim will easily pile on 320+

 

[#GreenRoars]

Coventry, Creamer, Chibhabha and Mupariwa in.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Mpofu, Utseya, Ervine and Chigu out.

 

[Theo_14]

I already said the team would be unchanged; this is typical and predictable. Shocking to bowl first.

 

[Zeshan547]

Epic trolling by pak management. Ham ideal team combination bna bna k mar jatay hain aur ghatiya management phr wo bekar team khilati hai har bar.

 

[jog_1]

We may not win this match. Zim will feast on these trundlers and easily score 300+.

And knowing Pak batsmen, we usually make a mess out of 250+ run chases, even if the conditions are good.

 

[Zeshan547]

And the excuse will be same as it was under misbah, why would you change a winning combination, 21 topun ke salami iss intelligent management ko.

 

[jog_1]

Watching Anwar Ali opening the bowling is so cringeworthy. Trundler at its finest.

 

[MSaad1237]

Only a mad person would choose to Bowl under such heat and humid conditions..!!


Rubbish stuff...

 

[saad32170]

Real good commentary by Ramiz Raja

 

[cricket.mad]

Some times ramiz talks sense..his coments about junaid,bio mechanics lab were quite frank and this is the way commentary should be..not that boring diplomacy

 

[Bashira_taeli]

Ramiz wants Sami to be given an extended run. What a retard.

 

[m.shah]

How is the crowd today??

 

[Adeel Naseem]

Anwar ali pk mcgrath

 

[Adeel Naseem]

Nice sammi leaking 4 s

 

[#GreenRoars]

can't understand why Azhar opted batting first. but well , on the contraty it is good . it will test our players fitness

 

[Alamgeer]

Anwar Ali proving everyone wrong.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Good choice to chase today, we can now see how we chase under pressure if we have to get a big total.

 

[Naim]

Zimbabwe is playing tuk tuk mode.

 

[Alamgeer]

Good choice to chase today, we can now see how we chase under pressure if we have to get a big total.

Yes. As if we have mastered the art of winning by batting first.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Good start here by AA, Good line and length and no width been given to batsmen.

 

[habibi hayya]

Bowlers being put under pressure by Azhar to perform.

This will be interesting.

 

[Abdullah]

Only a mad person would choose to Bowl under such heat and humid conditions..!!


Rubbish stuff...

In Punjabi - we call it a ''PUNGA!''

 

[#GreenRoars]

Zimbabwe needs to break this tuk tuk

 

[mithun_minhas]

Vusi Sibanda making sure Pak qualifies for CT.

 

[Naim]

ohh wow maden over from sami. sami is swinging ball.

 

[#GreenRoars]

and chibhabha listened to me. :

 

[Zeshan547]

And by this performance vs poor zim batting our management will think both sami and anwar are must our team and are best opening bowlers in pak.

 

[Zeshan547]

"Anushka Bhabi Aao na Pakistan Kbhi Kohli ko lay K" geo Lahoriyo

 

[Naim]

 

[Zeshan547]

Zim openers good work, "that's how one should treat a third class trundler like anwar ali"

 

[Fantasy]

Little bit of banter their...A poster saying something ANUSHKA KABHI AAO KOHLI KO LAY KAY ...

As I say another 4 through leg side...

 

[Alamgeer]

Good opening spell by both sami and anwar.

 

[junaid.ahmed]

its been a long time that pak bowlers failing to take early wickets

 

[BigBoy123]

its been a long time that pak bowlers failing to take early wickets

Yeah...

 

[imshally81]

Worst Team Selection....

 

[#GreenRoars]

Worst Team Selection....

as we have expected

 

[#GreenRoars]

:

 

[Abdullah]

Good opening spell by both sami and anwar.

And the flood gates open!!

 

[zains_rulez]

Poor anwer ali and sami

Not good enough to play tape ball

 

[SuperMAG77]

this sibanda is shehzad of zimbaboy.

 

[junaid.ahmed]

so anwar lillee starts hammered

 

[Bashira_taeli]

Great display of trundling. Inspirational stuff.

 

[Naim]

11 runs from AA over

 

[mussu-100]

This is so depressing.

Atleast Wahab is exciting.

 

[junaid.ahmed]

& once again poor poor team selection by waqar

 

[Boxer]

43/0 after 10 good opening stand

 

[Yatoo]

Why did Azhar bowl first? Its so hot in the Subcontinent.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Why did Azhar bowl first? Its so hot in the Subcontinent.

checking fitness of team mates

 

[Bashira_taeli]

Here comes the real bowler. Cmon Wahab!

Sami and Anwar are just posers. Dont even deserve to play in a half decent domestic side.

 

[rooster]

How's Sami's pace?

 

[Boxer]

Sibanda's strike rate is interesting

 

[Mamoon]

People don't get it, we are chasing because we want to see if he can chase here, we have already seen 3 days ago that we can pile up a massive total in these conditions against this attack, today would have been the same story.

Good strategic decision by the management, although I don't approve the selection of Anwar.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Pakistan need to keep sibanda in if hes going to play this game like a test match.

49/0

 

[cricfan14]

I was a big Azhar supporter... Until this inexplicable decision. There is absolutely no world where this makes sense. If we lose people will be calling for his head

 

[Naim]

that was

 

[#GreenRoars]

Zimbabwe playing Shehzad. lol

 

[Boxer]

half century

 

[Bashira_taeli]

People don't get it, we are chasing because we want to see if he can chase here, we have already seen 3 days ago that we can pile up a massive total in these conditions against this attack, today would have been the same story.

Good strategic decision by the management, although I don't approve the selection of Anwar.

So the managements wants to challenge the team. That kinda also explains the inclusion of Sami, Anwar and Shafiq.

 

[cricfan14]

I understand how poor our attack options were on BD but why this obsession with all rounders? We need pure wicket taking bowlers

 

[Boxer]

Sibanda needs to play out 50 overs

 

[Boxer]

shah bowling like warnie
