S Africa v Pakistan | 2015 WC | Group B 29th Match | 7th March '15 | Auckland | Pakistan innings

[Mamoon]

Losing the plot here, we need to wake up.

 

[Seen Sheen]

On behalf of Misbah fans, I would like to say that the kuptaan is playing an awful innings right now.

However, if we can get to the 35th over with these two still on the crease, we can get to 280, InshAllah.

Bro you seriously think after the platform set by Sarfaraz, we should be contented with 280 only? Irrespective of South Africa's chasing ability or lack of it, if we don't go onto score 325 at least, it would be a disappointment.

 

[MoinHaroon]

Where are Misbah's fan now?

 

[angrypathan]

yes AB, you can bowl 10 today

 

[dhump]

Right Arm Rubbish bowler to continue.

 

[Saeed]

Middle overs are pretty boring, especially when misbah bats.

 

[jib13673]

I am not a big fan of misbah . But for now this inning till now..i dont have any issue with misbah.. He just playing good bowlers and he is not throwing wicket... may be a little slow runrate here , but withought loosing wicket at this stage will give pakistan a better chance to go for big shots may be after 35 overs

 

[Sam18696]

AB is such a nice guy. Trying to make sure we score runs

 

[Bilsher007]

Morkel and Steyn are great bowlers. Just dont give them wickets away. I like this strategy.

They dont have enough pace bowlers. You can take apart Tahir and the part timers.

yes it's smart strategy.

 

[zabalestmsm]

AB de Villiers must be hammered!

 

[dhump]

Where are Misbah's fan now?

Here whats wrong with Misbah ??

 

[Nikhil_cric]

RSA made a blunder by going with 4 specialist bowlers!

Duminy actually bowled well against us. Our bats gave him a bit of respect. Sarfraz's hammering of Duminy has changed the complexion of the match. Now AB is more concerned about finishing off the fift h bowlers quota and letting the game drift away.

 

[castortroy]

Misbah should have got that for 6

 

[ekpakistani]

Misbah's 6 coming up

 

[nads_rocks]

That should have been put away for a Six.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Misbah the stabilizer is definitely giving stability to the innings

 

[Aloo Chaat]

 

[MoinHaroon]

Good Misbah that was a 4 ball

 

[angrypathan]

Misbah's strike rate up to 50

 

[imshally81]

 

[soso_killer]

Kallis you retired too soon mate...

 

[Red Devil]

Oh man what the hell

 

[Bilsher007]

I am not a big fan of misbah . But for now this inning till now..i dont have any issue with misbah.. He just playing good bowlers and he is not throwing wicket... may be a little slow runrate here , but withought loosing wicket at this stage will give pakistan a better chance to go for big shots may be after 35 overs

Yes we need misbah right till the end.... oh nooooooo YOUNIS OUT !

 

[SpiritOf1903]

Oh wow

 

[Mr Consistent]

 

[Sam18696]

Where are Misbah's fan now?

Hello and

 

[dhump]

Hahah Younis Throw it away.

 

[CricketBuff]

Misbah has sucked the life off this innings. He is too old, should have retired by now.

 

[castortroy]

YK omg

 

[zabalestmsm]

Big wicket for RSA!

 

[Watsupdoc]

How do you get out to AB?

 

[Arsal_AK]

Pretty ordinary batting so far.

By Misbah and YK you mean??

 

[emranabbas]

misbah building pressure lead to younas play a silly shot

 

[MoinHaroon]

It is all Misbah's fault that just sucks!!!!!!!!!

 

[angrypathan]

Out

 

[Saffer_XIII]

Lol. Bow your head in shame Younis Khan

 

[nads_rocks]

, good innings at a decent sr for Younis. Now people want to see shots and runs, this can either make or break Pakistan with whoever comes in next.

 

[Aloo Chaat]

I say bring boom boom in and let him score the fastest 200

 

[Iffitheking]

That's what happened, when one player block block... other player get into immense pressure...

 

[Jabo]

Gone

Now misbah was already stalling
So expect it to get worse

 

[Anchorman]

Jesus. Giving your wicket away to this guy.

 

[Gone]

Mistake Mistake Mistake.

3 Give aways

Everyone gifting each other.

 

[castortroy]

Given SA the wickets today

 

[Sam18696]

Looks like it's Misbah's fault

 

[soso_killer]

Lol what a gift YK :YK

 

[azamcricketer]

What a poor shot.

 

[ekpakistani]

Crap... i thought it was misbah was out.. chalo.. some impetus coming up

 

[MMHS]

YK gone, this guy is just not good any more.

 

[wasimjunior]

That's what happened, when one player block block... other player get into immense pressure...

All misbahs fault here. He's sucked the life out of a good start

 

[Bilsher007]

poor shot..by younis showing his limitation as a batsman in ODIs...oh well...we need to make a new partnership now..misbah has to lead.

 

[FreeBird]

wrong man got out.
Misbah's fault to create SUCH A HUGE pressure on the fellow batsman.

 

[BillyM]

Pak..self destruct mode on.

 

[angrypathan]

misbah building pressure lead to younas play a silly shot

that shot had nothing to do with misbah building pressure. It wasn't like Younis was looking to play an expansive drive

 

[nalsra_ladnog]

Looks like a very slow pitch, ball not coming on. That's u younus got out

 

[Noork85]

can't say i feel bad.

 

[Ottoman]

Selfish play from Misbah.

WTH is doing here, such a belter of a wicket & he is playing dot after dot.

Stupid batting

 

[Logical]

Maqsood needs to play with all the freedom here. No need to be scared.

 

[Shafi]

Team man already sealed his place over Haris!!!

 

[Strike!]

That was pathetic.

 

[IAJ]

Lols, AB needs moustache and you will have another Einstein here

 

[waleed88]

Wow younis khan out... Damnnn

 

[MoinHaroon]

Misbah you a freaking DRACULA. PLEASE RETIRE AND LET HARRIS PLAY. YOU Said that sarfraz does not have technique to play in Australia/NZ condition. You are killing Pakistan cricket with negative approach

 

[90MPH]

Played too early.

But some blame goes to Misbah too I'm afraid.

 

[Mamoon]

By Misbah and YK you mean??

And the love of your life - Shehzad

Sarfraz did well but he needs to calm down. Shocking running.

 

[Asadullah]

Haris Sohail breathes a sigh of relief!

 

[MMHS]

Good, that Haris 'll be back next match. Getting out to AB that way is crime at this time.

 

[Idreamofcricket]

320 in on the cards guys..

 

[GreenKnightRises]

'Misbah cannot bat for Mighty Khan.
This creating pressure thing from the other end is just a myth'
Ohh. Yeah but Misbah will stand till the end and becomes the lone warrior
.

 

[imshally81]

Some Slogging are coming soon...

 

[MoinHaroon]

Played too early.

But some blame goes to Misbah too I'm afraid.

Some I think all the blame

 

[m.shah]

horrible inning from misbahh..there is areason he has not so many fans

 

[Arsal_AK]

To all those saying Steyn and Morkel are good bowlers, no one is asking Misbah to smash sixes.

There is a thing called SINGLES.

 

[zabalestmsm]

Now AB de Villiers made to look like McGrath in this over! We should go after him!!

 

[emranabbas]

poor shot..by younis showing his limitation as a batsman in ODIs...oh well...we need to make a new partnership now..misbah has to lead.

this what happend when 1 man at the other end plays dot dot dot dot

 

[Jabo]

Sohaib makes either a fast 40-60 or he goes early by playing stupid shot for under 10

 

[Aloo Chaat]

This is what Misbah does, gets the team under pressure with his stupid defensive strategy. We need 330+ here

 

[ekpakistani]

Yk played quite well.. i blame misbah for yk's wicket

 

[Bilsher007]

AB e villiers did'nt deserve that wicket....can sohaib maqsood play inzimam ul haq's 1992 semi final match winning innings ?

 

[castortroy]

Pak still bat like its the 90s.

 

[dhump]

Thank u YK this was the best he could have done and made way for Harris in next match.
