only if akmal had a brain.

 

[NeVerMind]

b/c of his tuk tuk, sohail felt the need to swing. He create pressure on others. This approach of tuk tuk in this era is just not acceptable. Sooner we realize this the better.

nah mate...any other batsman would have smashed it for 4.
.that was entirely due to Haris..

 

[#GreenRoars]

umar akmal playing promising game

Misbah feeling easy with U Akmal on the other side!

same ball was for Umar and he whacked away for the 4

No use saying this. Misbah brigades cannot accept this Fact. they are stubborn like Misbah himself

Pakistan is picking things up. There is hope!

misbah playing sheet anchor role

 

[Anchorman]

Shot chotay!

 

[Arsal_AK]

only if akmal had a brain.

Yes,

Only if....

Istill remember his debut year. The promise and quality that he showed....

 

[JaDed]

the bowler needs to flight!

 

[ustad]

nah mate...any other batsman would have smashed it for 4.
.that was entirely due to Haris..

that was a poor shot no doubt. But you could just sense it that he was feeling the pressure and need to increase the run rate. I think haris should open.

 

[blackanhyellow]

If only Umar akmal could always bat like this...

 

[Arsal_AK]

nah mate...any other batsman would have smashed it for 4.
.that was entirely due to Haris..

same ball was for Umar and he whacked away for the 4

Mind set is the difference.

Umar is looking to score, the others block.

 

[shaaik]

Junior needs to bat till 40 overs at least here...

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Taking digs subtly is not your strength.. and you know whoever I am talking too.

Didn't disappear.

Did you know Umar Akmal averages most when batting with Misbah?

That fact might have eclipsed your mind...

I love every player who plays for the team.... and don't have biased attitude @ you-know-who I am talking to

 

[JibranAnsari]

damn mire

 

[NeVerMind]

No use saying this. Misbah brigades cannot accept this Fact. they are stubborn like Misbah himself

nothing to do with being part of Misbah brigade...you just have tobaccept the fact that we are no longer producing any talent...

 

[dildilpak]

Not playing too bad now. They have scored 83 runs in last 18 overs.

 

[Red Devil]

No use saying this. Misbah brigades cannot accept this Fact. they are stubborn like Misbah himself

Thank God he's retiring after this World Cup!

[ViciousMachine]

UMAR!!!! Time to shine today!!

 

[shah_1]

Umar looks so good when he doesn't slog, why doesn't he get it.

 

[FanofCricket]

by akmal again

 

[JaDed]

saved a boundary!

 

[Pete Rose]

Umar Akmal has been good form mostly since we have landed for the world cup. Sohail is regressing

 

[archetype]

I think Pakistan is in ok shape. Game is still winnable.

 

[Ikball]

Pakistan cricket is on the same lines on Pakistan hockey. I think we shall be playing Qualifiers for WC 2019.

 

[Saffer_XIII]

Pakistan should easily get 240-260.

 

[#GreenRoars]

today Umar needs to shine

 

[GreenKnightRises]

my gut feeling says Unlucky Ali will get a 7-fer :southee, and smash Zimbos under 100

 

[Scorpion]

So India in the semi finals now... despartely wanted England to win today to qualify and play india in quaters... now its gonna be ind v Bangladesh. ...

If enland wins their next two games, they would be at 6 points. Bangla currently at 3 points so need to win 2 out 3 games. They can beat Scotland but can't see them beating England or NZ. Unlucky for Bangladesh really to face top teams at the end and have a sniff. Then again, if you are worth it for QF, show it by beating a good team.

 

[Zeshan547]

Thanks to Alllah is up atlast

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Misbah will retire after this WC, So no worries

 

[Ikball]

Zim will chase everything below 300.

 

[FanofCricket]

good partnership

 

[Ikball]

Misbah will retire after this WC, So no worries

That will make situation worse

 

[JibranAnsari]

I dont think even 280 is defendable here.

 

[NeVerMind]

Haris to open with Sarfraz net...and get in YK back in the middle order...

 

[Iffitheking]

Can someone play ABD like inning in Pakistan??

 

[GreenKnightRises]

How much do you think Misbah has paid for that "kitna acha khel rahaa he Misbah" ad

 

[JaDed]

U Akmal looks a different man finally someone told him to rotate the strike and a boundary at a bad ball

 

[JibranAnsari]

14 in first 10?

 

[GreenKnightRises]

That will make situation worse

Yess. For the Opposition

 

[Iffitheking]

Haris to open with Sarfraz net...and get in YK back in the middle order...

You must be crazy, calling for Younus...

 

[JibranAnsari]

Misbah needs to stay till the end.

 

[JaDed]

has someone noticed the difference in Misbah's approach since U akmal came 21 from 28 balls speaks much about his faith in U akmal then others.

 

[shaaik]

If enland wins their next two games, they would be at 6 points. Bangla currently at 3 points so need to win 2 out 3 games. They can beat Scotland but can't see them beating England or NZ. Unlucky for Bangladesh really to face top teams at the end and have a sniff. Then again, if you are worth it for QF, show it by beating a good team.

The way England are playing at the moment it would be hard for them to beat Bangladesh though I would want England to qualify so that india wouldn't have a cake walk of a quater final..

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Haris to open with Sarfraz net...and get in YK back in the middle order...

I took your posts seriously until now !!

 

[Zeshan547]

So far not that bad considering we were mighty 14/2 after first 10

 

[desi_launda]

Umar akmal doing his minnow bashing :akmal

 

[dildilpak]

I agree with you. They are rotating the strike well too, akmal's positivity is rubbing off on misbah now

 

[LegendAli]

I took your posts seriously until now !!

owned.

 

[shah_1]

Drop Nasir and play Sarfraz

 

[Zeshan547]

The way England are playing at the moment it would be hard for them to beat Bangladesh though I would want England to qualify so that india wouldn't have a cake walk of a quater final..

defo, and england have two minnow games, so england still very much through

 

[LegendAli]

Relax now boys and play your natural game, game looks promising now.

 

[NeVerMind]

You must be crazy, calling for Younus...

I wanted him out but after this display it cannot get any worse...

 

[GreenKnightRises]

U Akmal looks a different man finally someone told him to rotate the strike and a boundary at a bad ball

Nothing unusual. he does this normally. he is one of of few batsmen who rotate the strike and hit boundaries whenever there is opportunity . But his 'bad ball' judgement is that what has troubled him for long

 

[Ikball]

Yess. For the Opposition

No for Pak fans, they will not have any player to blame for team loss. :

 

[Arsal_AK]

I wanted him out but after this display it cannot get any worse...

Yes it can.

1-4.....

 

[nads_rocks]

Should really look to get atleast 300. Need a good NRR in the table.

 

[FanofCricket]

pak should score 300 from here.

 

[Itachi]

umer akmal seems very calm, composed....

good to see him back. he will play big part in paks journey in this world cup.

 

[FanofCricket]

119-3

 

[Justcrazy]

Steady Partnership this.

 

[Itachi]

win 1st. while going to increase NRR, if one of these two gets out, you may even lose the game.

 

[FanofCricket]

good single by akmal

 

[Arsal_AK]

He is very good in tournaments.

Averages 48 with a SR of 90.

 

[FanofCricket]

50 for misbah

 

[#GreenRoars]

Missi , 50 more to go

 

[ViciousMachine]

50 for Misbah!!! *claps*

 

[FanofCricket]

congrats misbah

 

[Justcrazy]

for Misbah

 

[#GreenRoars]

if today once again this selfish captain gets out after scoring his customary match losing 50, he would be biggest culprit for today loss, He should be hanged to death.

today we will witness century

 

[Firebreaker]

Selfish innings from Misbah

 

[JibranAnsari]

Another lame surrender today on cards.

Ahmed shehzad and Jamshed are a disgrace.

 

[jattafridi]

Pakistan playing good
