[PICTURES] Trent Boult unhappy with Fakhar Zaman

[MenInG]

 

[Arham_PakFan]

It was clearly a mistake,both were ball watching.

Non issue. These things happen.

 

[hadi123]

Not really a big deal. Clearly a mistake. Move on. Not much was made of it. Thanks

 

[Badsha]

lol am I on TMZ what's the big deal here.

 

[ahmedzee]

Wasn't looking at the bowler. It wasn't deliberate. Only person who does something like this deliberately and in response abuses the bowler is Gautam Gambhir.

New Zealand are doing their level best to act like Aussies, whilst the Aussies are trying to act like Kiwis.

Boult was mouthing off at Fakhar earlier and then Fakhar hit him for back to back boundaries .

 

[Markhor]

When is the UN inquiry ?

Seems very minor !

 

[Madplayer]

Boult has been smashed this match. He is even over throwing the ball now mental disintegration.

 

[MenInG]

When is the UN inquiry ?

Seems very minor !

Guess UN have more problems to solve such as Taylor gesturing

 

[GLORY OF '92]

It's fine Taylor and him will choke in the WC again.

 

[Plumb]

When you get spanked after taking hat-trick in last game this can happen

 

[TeymurBlake]

They were both ball watching.

 

[DeadBall]

Should have been Acosta-ed off the field.

 

[MenInG]

Boult like all good fast-bowlers was irritated by how things were going. This was just a reaction.

Nothing wrong in this. It’s international cricket. Pakistan bowlers need to go back to the 2 Ws era and start giving verbals to the batsmen. It helps develop a mental strength and lets the batsmen know you don’t fear them. Pakistan bowlers can be a bit meek in that respect these days.

None of the kiwis came to ask Imam how he was after he got hit. Pakistan bowlers would have been a bit too sympathetic in a similar situation.

There is a barrier you should not cross. But controlled aggression and a bit of verbals is good.

Fast bowler shows frustration. In other news, grass is green

It wont work in today's era because Pakistan' s bowlers arent nearly good enough to back up their verbals with performances against big boys. Instead they will be ridiculed for having a big ego. But if Pakistan develops a world class bowler like wasim who could take the best batsmen apart, then i am all for such aggressive sledging.

 

[silentkiller187]

what do you expect him to do bow down and touch Fakhars feet in apology? in competitive sport this happens in the heat of battle. non story

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Get rekt son. Now for Taylor.

 

[Baigel]

Surprised the PCB hasn't allocated a committee to investigate this!

 

[Syed1]

He has reason to be unhappy.... treated like an Indian trundler ever since that hattrick

 

[BaankeJi]

It is clearly Boult's fault. He has to get out of batsman's way. Fakhar has every right to be annoyed. I stead, it us Boult who is acting up. Fakhar should have given him a strong push.
It is so annoying!
