[Pictures] Pakistan Cup 2016 : Balochistan beat Islamabad by 3 wickets

[Ahson8]

Arsal actually has a pretty clean action

 

[dauntless]

50 up for azhar still a huge chase

 

[#GreenRoars]

Ok, Azhar Ali gets his fifty. Doesn't matter if he gets double ton, Balochistan won't win this.

 

[m.shah]

Arsal going to debut soon for Pakistan now.

 

[Abdullah]

Right - come on babar- run a ball hundred to see this home please

 

[Rafay Shafiq]

Oh dear, Arsal takes wicket

His next step is PSL team

 

[asyed]

Top over by Hassan. Pressure on Balochs with RRR above 7.16 and Azher is being Azher.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Good shot Babar

 

[MMHS]

Arsal's action is clear & he looks like a genuine 19/20 years boy.

 

[Proud_Selfie_Fan]

Azhar Ali is the most deserving Captain for our one day team! Batting with a great strike rate sensible selfless innings by Azhar

 

[Rafay Shafiq]

Arsal's action is clear & he looks like a genuine 19/20 years boy.

Yes but whenever you break Que, you have to face opposition

 

[JibranAnsari]

Most batsmen will succeed at number 4 , babar azam is disappointing me. He should bat at tougher positions.

By tougher position you mean?

 

[MMHS]

Mash Allah - Aazzu is doing it for the Capital boys.

 

[asyed]

By tougher position you mean?

No brainer, opening.

 

[Abdullah719]

Yaar Babar way too many dots. Have to make up for this.

 

[m.shah]

Babar azam struggling

 

[Pakprideuk]

Babar building pressure on Azhar. Struggling to find gaps.

 

[Abdullah719]

Babar building pressure on Azhar. Struggling to find gaps.

Don't worry about Azhar, he is himself an expert on building pressure.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Azhar Ali smashing at SR of 73

 

[Muhammad10]

154/2 (29)

 

[Suleiman]

Azhar setting himself up for a dream innings.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Shot azhar. Hope Babar gets a ton today

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Why are people criticising Azhars knock. He hasnt played too badly

 

[Proud_Selfie_Fan]

No brainer, opening.

He's a great batsman and a future prospect shouldn't waste him like others by involving him in the openers race,
The best way is to groom Sami and Fakhar!

 

[Proud_Selfie_Fan]

Why are people criticising Azhars knock. He hasnt played too badly

Yeah we should support him he's playing a selfless innings, playing for the team to win right?

 

[Pakprideuk]

Everyone criticises Azhar but he's one of the few clutch players we have. Has featured in a lot of 4th innings chases for us in test cricket.

 

[Proud_Selfie_Fan]

Azhar setting himself up for a dream innings.

Hoping the other way around!

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Zafar is a very good prospect but he hasnt bowled to his potential in the 2 matches hes gotten

 

[Proud_Selfie_Fan]

Everyone criticises Azhar but he's one of the few clutch players we have. Has featured in a lot of 4th innings chases for us in test cricket.

By all a lot you mean two?

 

[Boi]

What's with the hate for Azhar? Evaluate his innings at the end. I think he's setting this chase up well.

Lazy effort from Arsal there.

 

[asyed]

He's a great batsman and a future prospect shouldn't waste him like others by involving him in the openers race,
The best way is to groom Sami and Fakhar!

He is tried on opening, because in domestic, he use to open the innings. Also played as opener @ under-19 level too.

That said, he clearly doesn't look comfortable opening these day. So should be played @ no.4.

 

[badsha001]

how did he not catch that???

 

[marlonbrowndo]

What's with the hate for Azhar? Evaluate his innings at the end. I think he's setting this chase up well.

Lazy effort from Arsal there.

Look at the username of the person wanting him to fail. Does that answer your question?

 

[Suleiman]

Exactly these kids only want some big belted to hit off a bit 100 off 17 balls.

 

[Boi]

Look at the username of the person wanting him to fail. Does that answer your question?

lol yes. Seems like a general pattern these days.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

I actually like listening to Rashid Latif. His voice is boring but he always says something relevant

 

[Abdullah719]

Balochistan may yet win here because of the bowling and the wicket, but you won't be chasing many 300+ scores in international cricket with a 'start' of 40(60) unless you have a Rohit Sharma-esque ability to accelerate.

 

[Suleiman]

Lol what a jobber this Arsal is. Poor Zafar (aka an ACTUAL spinner who got in through merit and not because daddy works at PCB) having to deal with the sifarishi's poor fielding.

 

[Muhammad10]

Azhar 79* and switching gears.

Balochistan 180/2 (32)

 

[Proud_Selfie_Fan]

He is tried on opening, because in domestic, he use to open the innings. Also played as opener @ under-19 level too.

That said, he clearly doesn't look comfortable opening these day. So should be played @ no.4.

Exactly batted with supreme authority in that England Series' first ODI down the order but Waqar's love of shehzad made Babar open the innings and he failed miserably shouldve batted down the order in that whole series too!!

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Babar is the best ODI batsman in Pakistan. Probably should bat at 4 and then move up to 3 when Hafeez retires in ODIs

 

[dauntless]

Run rate is still under 6 but wickets in hands is the key here

 

[Abdullah719]

I actually like listening to Rashid Latif. His voice is boring but he always says something relevant

Has a monotonous voice but says what he wants to very openly, doesn't hold back.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Wow Im surprised Akmal caught it

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Good knock from Azhar now Babar has to bat till the end. I dont have much hope for Akmal

 

[Boi]

Last chance for a while for Akmal to show he still is capable of performing under abit of pressure in a chase.

 

[Hasan123]

Azhar doing well barbar needs to pick his game up a bit.

 

[Muhammad10]

182/3 Azhar gone for 80, nicking off to Abbas.

 

[badsha001]

3 akmals on the pitch?

 

[asyed]

Umar bottler on the crease.

 

[dauntless]

Umar against fast bowler let's see what he can do

 

[dauntless]

Babar is key here hope to see a match winning knock from him

 

[asyed]

Umar against fast bowler let's see what he can do

He'll hit some to give you some hope. And then you become excited then soon excitement will turn into pain.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Exactly batted with supreme authority in that England Series' first ODI down the order but Waqar's love of shehzad made Babar open the innings and he failed miserably shouldve batted down the order in that whole series too!!

It was great how Shehzad proved Waqar wrong in the last Eng ODI and the NZ ODIs

 

[#GreenRoars]

Balochistan needs blinder of Umar Akmal

 

[dauntless]

He'll hit some to give you some hope. And then you become excited then soon excitement will turn into pain.

Hope to see akmal show today

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Babar needs to show why hes our best ODI batsman and bat till the end. If Akmal doesnt get at least 60 here, we wont see him represent Pakistan for at least 2 years

 

[asyed]

Hope to see akmal show today

lol, I'd that hope many times. But like as I said, always excitement turned into a bad pain .

This clown is brain-dead, can never win you such matched when you've to chase 131 runs in and 16 over.

 

[Abdullah]

No violence is needed so it will be agood battle here- bat the overs and you will win babar.Hassan has 5 left AND ZAFAR 3, cAN uMAR SURVIVE THE LEFT ARM SPIN!!

 

[Proud_Selfie_Fan]

Well kid its not about Shehzad but wasting other batsmen he shouldn't have included him in the squad he should've had protested his inclusion at that very time and not after "chirya chug gaye khait" !

 

[Belawal2014]

Babar Azam closes his bat face too early.

 

[#GreenRoars]

So, Balochistan out of the tournament even if they win this game.

 

[asyed]

This Imam seems like a good fielder too.

 

[asyed]

So, Balochistan out of the tournament even if they win this game.

Yes, I guess it will be KPK vs Sindh.

 

[Rami_kakaa]

Azhar ali looses another tournament pehlay lahore ab balochistan smh

 

[#GreenRoars]

Both cousins are on crease by Umar Akmal

 

[Belawal2014]

When he's good, he's damn GOOD.

 

[asyed]

Where is Arsal hiding?

 

[#GreenRoars]

Yes, I guess it will be KPK vs Sindh.

Should be, both deserves the spot.

 

[Syed1]

So darling of PP playing at SR of 65 and nobody cares but everybody was screaming at Azhar's SR

 

[#GreenRoars]

 

[dauntless]

What a shot akmal

 

[Syed1]

Mashallah RRR at 8.5 and Babar "Talunt" Azam striking at 65. Wow

 

[Proud_Selfie_Fan]

But But But But Azhar Ali is very professional and he hasn't had any discipline issues he Bats at the sr of 75+ infact 80 or 90 He is the deserving captain of pur national team!

 

[TalentSpotterPk]

Sensational Six.

 

[Syed1]

Good thing his cousin is playing at the other end, otherwise Azam was trying his best to lose the match

 

[dauntless]

Babar trying hard

 

[Proud_Selfie_Fan]

Mashallah RRR at 8.5 and Babar "Talunt" Azam striking at 65. Wow

Now what? will he get the same bashing as some other tailunted batsmen been getting lately??????

 

[asyed]

Big over, Sami as usually crapping in his pent under pressure.
