Pakistan vs Zimbabwe | Match 23 | Pool B |1st March 2015 | Brisbane | Pakistan Innings

[uberkoen]

250 should be defendable.

 

[Strike!]

Why so eager? Jeeeez.

 

[FanofCricket]

afridi is only hope now.

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Lol..

Aggression Aggression Aggression...

Karl lo aur..

These guys can't even play more than 30 balls and we are blaming Misbah for this mess.

Awful thinking.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Terrible player.

 

[Watsupdoc]

Sohaib gone

We need Wahab to stick round and we need to play the whole 50 overs somehow.

 

[uberkoen]

Did Maqsood just get out?

Oh no it must be Misbah's fault!

 

[desi_launda]

Mupariwa legend

 

[waleed88]

Where did cornered tiger, aggression and talented stuff come from?

Yes, this is a decent innings from Misbah, but still doesn't take away from the fact that 3 off 30 odd balls is just pathetic. He didn't even attempt to take singles.

I'm not asking him to hit boundaries, but at least rotate the strike and go at a strike rate of 50 - 60 at the start.

Whats the point of all that? Our team cannot survive 50 overs

 

[#GreenRoars]

so we Should witness missi Century

 

[JibranAnsari]

165 all out

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Pak will get 300,Zim bowlers gave 150 in last 10 against WI and SA

Really?

Who will give us 300?

Rahat Fateh Ali Khan?

 

[jattafridi]

Pitch looks difficult need 200

 

[FanofCricket]

Need to get atleast 250

 

[Grunge101]

Yayyyy...another brilliant ''talent'' who proved how Misbah is the one responsible for all of this.

 

[JaDed]

so its this if u stop Maqsood or Sohail's runs they get out! They need to workout this mental brain freeze.

 

[Aman]

lol this is legendary batting.

Would so much rather face Pakistan than Windies or Ireland... Ireland could actually upset us and chase big...

 

[uberkoen]

Sohaib gone

We need Wahab to stick round and we need to play the whole 50 overs somehow.

Wait. We need to play all 50 overs? Are you sure about that? Wouldn't you rather we scored 8 runs per over and scored 150 in in 19 overs instead of scoring 250 in 50 overs.

#blamemisbah

 

[dirk diggler]

maqsood undone by a 150kph snorter

 

[ekpakistani]

Hahahahah this is just sad.. plain and simple sad

 

[#GreenRoars]

Sohaib gone

We need Wahab to stick round and we need to play the whole 50 overs somehow.

and need missi century

 

[Watsupdoc]

Whats the point of all that? Our team cannot survive 50 overs

What's the point of tuk tuking? At least with singles, you have some momentum going in your favor.

 

[FanofCricket]

no afridi

 

[Ikball]

Will he get his first hundred?

 

[Justcrazy]

six down

 

[Thivagar]

These guys cant stick around till Misbah scores a century ?

 

[Imy]

calm down do you see the grip on the surface this is probably the hardest surface in the tournament this is not an easy wicket

 

[Mamoon]

Same old rubbish, Pakistan cricket is done and dusted. There is no for the future.

I'm done. Complete waste of time.

I can utilize this time for something more productive.

 

[Ikball]

no afridi

Got out on duck

 

[Iffitheking]

Yayyyy...another brilliant ''talent'' who proved how Misbah is the one responsible for all of this.

Misbah built up pressure by blocking coming batsman has to take lots of risks...

 

[shaaik]

Our batsmen finding new and unique ways if getting out...

 

[qaiser]

this is club level bowling

 

[FanofCricket]

just realize afridi is already out.

 

[luvthegame]

M needs to get on strike..

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Chalo..

Misbah tow hua useless.

Now lets talk about what others did...

Shall we start?

How can you expect other to flare when a 'useless' is leading them from the front

 

[dirk diggler]

this is club level bowling

That's an insult to club cricketers

 

[uberkoen]

just realize afridi is already out.

wow. Really? You just realized that?

 

[FanofCricket]

so again all the hope is on misbah

 

[Hitman]

no afridi

Look at the scorecard. Dismissed for a DUCK today.

 

[Aman]

Zim should bowl out their specialists.

 

[uberkoen]

How can you expect other to flare when a 'useless' is leading them from the front

At least useless is able to score. I'd rather have a team of Misbah's then a team of Ahmed Shehzad's or Akmal's.

 

[waleed88]

How can you expect other to flare when a 'useless' is leading them from the front

Nice use of grammar.
Exactly the way your idol speaks his English.

 

[qaiser]

That's an insult to club cricketers

lol. true.
I was being patriotic

 

[luvthegame]

Did Pak take PP..

 

[shaaik]

calm down do you see the grip on the surface this is probably the hardest surface in the tournament this is not an easy wicket

Ha ha ha... don't get over odd by this mediocre batting line up. There are no demons in the pitch. Against this bowling line up 250 is like a walk in the park on this pitch.

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Misbah built up pressure by blocking coming batsman has to take lots of risks...

Yes and also the fan suffered obstructive sleep apnea watching Misbah bat in the stands, and not because he was inherently predisposed to it.

Misbah : the source for cure and disease.

 

[Iffitheking]

even wahab scoring rate is 100

 

[FanofCricket]

wow. Really? You just realized that?

hahah bro missed 5 overs due to load shedding b/w 30-35 overs.

 

[Aman]

Look at the scorecard. Dismissed for a DUCK today.

It's astonishing how long he's played international cricket for despite being a mediocre talent.

 

[#GreenRoars]

sO now eyes on Wahab to support Missi the King

 

[luvthegame]

What is Misbah doing..he needs to get strike..looks like he is deliberately allowing Wahab to face the bowlers..

 

[FanofCricket]

where are misbah bashers now.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

lol this is legendary batting.

Would so much rather face Pakistan than Windies or Ireland... Ireland could actually upset us and chase big...

We atleast got a better score than 152 and still have 4 wickets remaining

 

[Saffer_XIII]

lol this is legendary batting.

Would so much rather face Pakistan than Windies or Ireland... Ireland could actually upset us and chase big...

They could chase big in Australia maybe. In New Zealand you'd gobble them up really.

 

[dirk diggler]

Feel sorry for those poor buggers who've gone out to Australia to watch these amateurs

 

[#GreenRoars]

It's astonishing how long he's played international cricket for despite being a mediocre talent.

correct
he is the first Senior player among all teams who got duck lol

 

[run-out]

 

[uberkoen]

Zimbabwe going for the jugular

 

[Silverlion]

PK vs Zim two evenly matched teams. Or are they?

 

[FanofCricket]

misbah should bat till 50 overs now.

 

[Grunge101]

Where did cornered tiger, aggression and talented stuff come from?

Yes, this is a decent innings from Misbah, but still doesn't take away from the fact that 3 off 30 odd balls is just pathetic. He didn't even attempt to take singles.

I'm not asking him to hit boundaries, but at least rotate the strike and go at a strike rate of 50 - 60 at the start.

i dont even know why im doing this but do you really want to talk about how ''pathetic'' Misbah's SR is when there is no one,and i mean absolutely no one in the team that can be trusted to survive more than 2 overs??

Why does it even matter whether he would fit into an Indian/Australia/SA squad?....the fact is he is the only one in the current team who is atleast semi decent at what he does....

Meh im done...go on your Misbah bashing...no wonder ive never been able to relate to 99.9 % of my fellow countrymen over anything.

 

[Dr_Bassim]

even wahab scoring rate is 100

What's the point of playing at even 200 when we can't play out 50?

Yesterday Australians were bowled out for 150 trying to play too fast. The good news was they had the bowling to do same back to NZ.

We have neither.

Can't be choosers in this case.

 

[Shafi]

Even Malaysia can play better than our batsmen

 

[imshally81]

Is 220 is enough for us ???

 

[uberkoen]

even wahab scoring rate is 100

What does scoring at a run a ball achieve when you can't bat all 50 overs?

The lack of cricketing knowledge on this forum is astonishing honestly. Not only cricket knowledge just basic common sense.

 

[dirk diggler]

Rameez keeps mentioning our mental, state being low, yes that's a factor bUT we arr technically inept too

 

[FanofCricket]

go for 100 misbah

 

[JAI- a Cricket fan]

hahah bro missed 5 overs due to load shedding b/w 30-35 overs.

Load shedding = problem.. And you missed fall of wickets of Pakistan = another problem.. Problems galore

 

[desi_launda]

Misbah what a legend lone survivor

 

[Justcrazy]

162 / 6


60 balls left

 

[nads_rocks]

No Ramiz. You mean throughout the tournament.

 

[Haripotter]

Chak de Pakistan ! Inshallah the team vl get past 250

 

[Grunge101]

Misbah built up pressure by blocking coming batsman has to take lots of risks...

Im speechless,...i swear to god

 

[FusedBulb]

Why Pakistan bowlers are such a mug with the bat?

Just look at Wahab Riaz.

He is playing EVERY delivery the SAME EXACT WAY.

A tentative block. Just cannot swing the bat in power plays.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Even Malaysia can play better than our batsmen

thats why they cant come On international LEVEL

 

[Watsupdoc]

i dont even know why im doing this but do you really want to talk about how ''pathetic'' Misbah's SR is when there is no one,and i mean absolutely no one in the team that can be trusted to survive more than 2 overs??

Why does it even matter whether he would fit into an Indian/Australia/SA squad?....the fact is he is the only one in the current team who is atleast semi decent at what he does....

Meh im done...go on your Misbah bashing...no wonder ive never been able to relate to 99.9 % of my fellow countrymen over anything.

Again you are not getting the point. His current strike rate is fine given the way other's have batted, but there is no excuse for scoring only 3 runs off 30 odd balls.

 

[FanofCricket]

feel sorry for misbah always helpless at one end

 

[uberkoen]

Wahab needs to hang in there. Although, when our batsmen couldn't why should we expect him to?

 

[#GreenRoars]

Why Pakistan bowlers are such a mug with the bat?

Just look at Wahab Riaz.

He is playing EVERY delivery the SAME EXACT WAY.

A tentative block. Just cannot swing the bat in power plays.

he need to support his captain,
he can do a good handy job with bat.

 

[luvthegame]

this is not a easy wicket to bat on..Our seamers and LALA can do some damage IA...dont give up hope guys..
