Headingley has some big stands. Remember the thrilling atmosphere from the Pak games of 99.

Something you don't always see on TV is just how flat Pakistan are in the field.

It's almost like they don't want to be out there. Arms folded, hands in pockets and so lethargic in the field.

They are all getting ready for the world cup 2019 . They know these ODIs are meaning less compared to the biggest tournament on the cricket circuit that comes only every 4 years.

It is very obvious during the game also .... body language is giving it away.

I have not seen Hafeez/Malik being the senior most players even talking to Sarfraz even ONCE....
Bowlers just going through the motions.....
No positive emotions......
Rarely seen the team this demoralized.....

If I have to guess, it might be much more than cricket .... behind the scene and off the fields troubles/issues/etc. If nothing else, a lot of selection dilemmas..... Amir, Abid, Malik, etc...

But if it is just on the field performances, the I hope we win our two warm up matches and the first match against WI ....otherwise we will be the first team out of the tournament.

Very poor body language and a lack of leadership.

The younger players must be thinking what's going on here.

That’s disheartening to hear. What’s the point of these seniors in the team? Hafeez and Malik should be helping Safraaz and getting the team engaged and pumped up regardless of the result. Feel they have lost self confidence.

If you have of the option to replace Sarfraz, who would you give the captaincy to?

Good rebuilding by Sarfaraz and Babar.

This track is so flat that any batsman who misses out here will be kicking himself.

[Saj]

Sarfaraz looked determined today. He looked in very good form and what an unlucky way to get out.

Malik's having a bit of a horror time at the moment with the bat.

Depressing stuff this.

Quite a few Pakistan fans left the ground early dismayed by the performance.

This fielding unit is terrible and needs a kick up the rear.

A couple of batsmen who basically are passengers in this team.
