[topspin]

Good score on a slow surface and exceptional effort after losing flurry after flurry of wickets, just shows how Sarfraz's captaincy is going from bad to worse with the regression of his leadership in his best format.

Will be interesting to see if the batting can bail him out today. Umar Akmal won't enjoy batting on this surface. Watson for me with his power will be the key man in this run chase

 

[nextover666666]

I think united will bowl them out and win the game

 

[Goharn]

Shezzy gets off the mark, just need another 99.

Short memory eh!

Misbah single handedly put up the same score on this pathetic pitch. Of course Kami also helped.

Quetta should easily chase this unless they go into self-destruct mode.

 

[babajee]

Shehzad gone thankfully.

 

[Anchorman]

Deary me, Shehzad. Starting to feel bad for the poor guy now.

 

[Boi]

#dropShehzad

 

[Titan24]

Shehzad looks completely out of form. QG can easily open with Smith and play Saud Shakil in the middle instead of Shehzad

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

Shehzad didnt improve a bit.

 

[SensiblePakFan]

Shehzad is gone, he needs to get discarded.

 

[Titan24]

Saud Shakil should get his long waited oppurtunity in the next game

 

[Goharn]

Deary me, Shehzad. Starting to feel bad for the poor guy now.

He has only himself to blame.

No that was on a more batting friendly wicket. If you don't believe me check the last game scorecard (on the same used pitch) yesterday where LQ defended 135-140.

PZ lost on a 170-180 pitch with a score that was 15-20 runs short of this range.

Misbah could only manage 19 runs after 19 balls which included 2 overs with Pollard, where he faced 8 of those 12 deliveries amassing just 5 runs. This is where the game was lost.

 

[Goharn]

Anytime Samit bowls to quality players, he is taken to cleaners. But he'll still hold his spot because of poor local batsmen in the squads.

 

[Titan24]

Aggression from Faheem

Open with Roussow and put Saud at 3. Umar Akmal at 4.

 

[angeldsoul]

Who was the presenter that interviewed fawad Ahmed
In end of Islamabad innings she had a south African accent I think ??

 

[Hasan123]

Watson is good enough to play T20s for Australia. Can remember his match winning knock in last year's IPL final. Such a shame he won't go to Pakistan.

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

No crowd on sundays?

 

[Titan24]

Open with Roussow and put Saud at 3. Umar Akmal at 4.

Thats fine as well but Smith generally prefers opening than middle thats why I suggested that.

 

[angeldsoul]

No crowd anyways seems....

 

[Titan24]

No crowd on sundays?

Sunday is a working day in UAE

Smith is trash now.

Erin Holland - she's an Aussie model and tv host. Ben Cutting's GF as well.

 

[Titan24]

Rumman Raees’ come back after almost a year

 

[Hasan123]

Raees into the attack.

 

[Baigel]

Rumman looks buffer, but still trundles

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

Sunday is a working day in UAE

Ah yes how i can forget that lol. Pathetic from me

 

[Titan24]

Ah yes how i can forget that lol. Pathetic from me

Not a big deal.

 

[Baigel]

Take that one back

 

[babajee]

GOAT time.

 

[Hasan123]

Rossouw gone!!! Big wicket!

 

[Titan24]

Rumman hopefully can get into those 130s speeds again

 

[angeldsoul]

Erin Holland - she's an Aussie model and tv host. Ben Cutting's GF as well.

Thanks - she seemed to know her stuff..

 

[Hasan123]

Bring Patel back on. Want to see how Umar Akmal will do against his left arm spin weakness.

 

[Titan24]

Nice lengths from Rumman

 

[Hasan123]

This is the big partnership for QG

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

Dropped

 

[topspin]

Exactly what I would do. Get this pair out and it's game,set, match ISLU.

 

[Hasan123]

Dropped.

 

[Hasan123]

Test of Samis captaincy.

 

[Titan24]

Nice comeback over from Raees

 

[Hasan123]

Umar Akmal is very good off the back foot.

 

[Titan24]

Umar Akmal what have you done with your talent

 

[babajee]

GOAT is on a mission here.

 

[Hasan123]

Good batting intelligence shown by UA.

 

[Hasan123]

Umar Akmal is more than good enough for our T20 team. We need to see if he's good enough for our ODI team. But I would rather have Umar Akmal than Malik or Sarfaraz.

 

[babajee]

Vintage Akmal

 

[Titan24]

What batting from Akmal

 

[Hasan123]

What a shot. Umar Akmal played 3 shots in that over , all round the wicket. Wow.

 

[topspin]

Class batting from Umar Akmal

 

[Hasan123]

Umar Akmal is toying with us.

 

[Hasan123]

Get him out!!!!!!!

 

[Hasan123]

Umar Akmal giving certain posters stomache [MENTION=79064]MMHS[/MENTION] [MENTION=147314]topspin[/MENTION]

 

[castortroy]

How old is Akmal now?

 

[babajee]

Too easy

 

[Goharn]

Fifty here and this nibba is back in the squad.

 

[Hasan123]

I would try Patel for 1 over against Umar Akmal.

 

[angeldsoul]

Akmal needs another go....

 

[Titan24]

How old is Akmal now?

Still just 28

 

[castortroy]

Surely Akmal should be given a shout in the international team now

 

[Goharn]

How old is Akmal now?

He is still 28 years old.

 

[Boi]

Shadab needs to slow it up. Needs to deceive batsmen with flight if he isn’t getting it to spin

 

[topspin]

You can see the burn in Waqar's face - for those not aware he's always held a personal dislike of Umar Akmal.

 

[SensiblePakFan]

Akmal needs another go....

needs 3-4 more 50's atleast

 

[Titan24]

I would try Patel for 1 over against Umar Akmal.

Wish fulfilled

 

[Hasan123]

Let's see how Umar does.

 

[angeldsoul]

Lololol poor waqar

 

[Titan24]

Aussies series would be good to try some players and Akmal might be one of those. He can also be the spare keeper if required

 

[Hasan123]

Not too bad.

 

[Hasan123]

Aussies series would be good to try some players and Akmal might be one of those. He can also be the spare keeper if required

Who would you rather have , Umar Akmal or Malik, Hafeez ,or Sarfaraz?

 

[Darkrai]

Show-off Shadab getting hammered nothing new.

 

[Hasan123]

Amazing shot.

 

[Titan24]

Everybody is coming in form however we are yet to see best of Shadab

 

[Barragan]

That was quality

 

[Hasan123]

Hitting a spinner through extra cover is a good sign [MENTION=79064]MMHS[/MENTION]

 

[Hasan123]

Does anyone if Umar Akmal has been working with a batting coach ? I know he has been working with a fitness coach but he seems to have improved his shot range slightly.

 

[Barragan]

I love the way he is using his feet, but not blindly hitting it

Playing the ball on merit
