Practice Match between Leicestershire [226/6] and Pakistan [321/9d] ends in a draw

[AssassinatedDevil]

Can Pakistan finish off their preparation for the 2 match Test series against England on a high note? Pakistan had a largely domnant performance on day 1. They were on 321/9 at stumps, with Azhar Ali scoring a magnificent 73 and Fakhar Zaman with a sublime 71.

 

[Asch Ali]

Rahat Ali will get a duck.
What’s more to say?
He can’t contribute with neither bat or ball.

 

[Junaids]

Is it a one innings or two innings match?

 

[AFM]

Is it a one innings or two innings match?

Two. The side batting first can only bat 100 overs max.

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

Litmus test for bowlers today. Who is putting his hand up?

 

[UN talkz]

Pakistan declare at overnight score of 321/9

That makes no sense.
Its only 2 days let both teams bat 100 overs each and team with most runs win.

I know its only a warm up match but 4 innings in 2 days..

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Leicestershire 44-0 after 18 overs.

Ay ki hoya? LOL

Abh wo huwaa jo roz hotaa hai

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Shadab gets the first wicket

 

[Deewana Mastana]

At least someone picks a wicket.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Fast bowlers haven't been threatening so far.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

lol Saad Ali gets a wicket

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Well well that's new from Saad Ali.

Sarfraz should have used more part time bowlers against Ireland as well. Top order bats usually do lose their focus when a part timer is on. There is always a wicket on the cards.

Hopefully will Sarfraz learn from this.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Saad Ali lol

Of all of them it had to be him to come and get a wicket.

 

[pakistani pride]

Fast bowlers haven't been threatening so far.

Waiting for Root and co on a dry Lords wicket come next week

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Waiting for Root and co on a dry Lords wicket come next week

yes recourse.

 

[Asch Ali]

Saad Ali knocking on doors. Let’s hope he gets 4 more wickets

 

[Syed1]

Working lack of wickets for pacers

 

[coy0607]

Pakistan brought too many batsmen on this tour, definitely a bowler short

 

[Xoib]

Should have picked shanwari or Junaid

 

[MenInG]

2nd Wicket for Shadab - Pakistan need to finish off this batting very quickly but chance of a result are remote

 

[Usman Chadda]

The selection of Rahat Ali is unforgivable. Has been rubbish in pretty much every match he's played so far.

Think Mickey doing all he can to make sure no one doubts him when he doesnt pick Rahat for Lord's

How will that work out if amir is unfit?

I meant for this tour. Wahab may not be a popular choice, but there's no doubt he provides something different in Tests.

 

[blackanhyellow]

Its sad our pacers cant even get wickets against these batsmen.

 

[DeadBall]

Fakhar/Saad bowling to Javid/Ali. Are we still in England?

 

[Abdullah719]

Fakhar/Saad bowling to Javid/Ali. Are we still in England?

Javed taking a liking to the spinners while Ali continuing tuk-tuk

 

[DeadBall]

So even club cricketers are retiring against us now.

 

[New Yorker]

How will that work out if amir is unfit?

this is the madness of this tour's selection. what mickey needs is not an excuse not to play rahat in the england tests, but an excuse to send rahat home altogether and call a replacement back up

 

[Markhor]

Rahat going at 3.5 RPO against the worst team in Division 2 of County Championship.

Awkward moment for Inzi fans

What was the point of this match......

 

[blackanhyellow]

What was the point of this match......

Pakistan treated it as a practice match to test the bench, as well as give Azhar and sarfraz some time to get back into form.

Results were they were able to test bench, and azhar got some runs.

Sarfraz didnt come good but overall it seems most of the goals were accomplished.

 

[Pete Rose]

Awkward moment for Inzi fans

The Match write up indicates he was the most impressive of the lot, apparently a few clatches went down as well

 

[AssassinatedDevil]

Pak has done well in all games they have played so far. No alarming concerns as of yet.

 

[talhajani]

I think in This Aamir will work for Pakistan as such 2010. Not in negative way but in positive way of bowling.
