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

[Bilsher007]

Mazhar Arshad says if Pakistan don't bat again. South Africa's targets on D/L method:

240 in 40 ovs
204 in 30 ovs
157 in 20 ovs

i will take 204 in 30 happily

I believe realistically it will be 240 runs from 40 over..

 

[Random Aussie]

What if everyone plays at 60 strike rate?

Moot point they can't last long regardless of strike rate.

 

[Salma_T]

Whats wrong with everyones attitude?? Whats the point of a win if it's aided by weather.

if it wasn't for rain Pakistan would never have won in 1992. A win is a win regardless

 

[Aloo Chaat]

So lets say Pak score 260 in 47 overs
will SA chase 261 in 47overs or different target

same target lol

 

[FanofCricket]

There is no way this game will be washed out, Rain is only forecast till 7 p.m, which means RSA will surely bat. Pakistan will be better off if it stops raining ASAP.

I agree.Ireland got a good start against zim looks like they will win as well.

 

[Aloo Chaat]

So it's official.

Pakistan will come out to bat and both teams are getting 47 overs each.

 

[habibi hayya]

Do you understand even the very basics of this game???

In an innings of scheduled duration of between 41 and 50 overs, the batting powerplay may not be completed later than the end of the 40th over. Should the batting side choose not to exercise their discretion, their powerplay overs will automatically commence at the latest available point in the innings (e.g. in a 50 over innings, this will begin at the start of the 36th over).

Hahaha...typical pper.

 

[dildilpak]

Meanwhile Porterfield playing Tuk-tuk for Ireland. 28 in 59 balls

 

[FreeBird]

now we need to go besirk to reach a good score off 47

Yeah, Misbah will do that for you.

He is been on the crease long enough to do it.

 

[Safar55]

Would have been better if we lost all our overs... Now that duminy doesnt have to bowl it will be difficult blasting their pace bowlers

 

[UpInTheAir]

if it wasn't for rain Pakistan would never have won in 1992. A win is a win regardless

You guys can have that kind of win then, personally it wouldn't mean much to me. Terrible attitude by you guys..

Dont care how we get the win but want the win !

 

[FanofCricket]

can we get a result today??

 

[cricketInsight]

Since Pakistan is losing 3 overs, won't a buffer be added to what SAF as to chase?

 

[Aloo Chaat]

I reckon 280 is good enough from 47.

How does a wet outfield affect bowling?

 

[Aloo Chaat]

Since Pakistan is losing 3 overs, won't a buffer be added to what SAF as to chase?

SAF is losing 3 overs as well.

 

[Pakistani Pace]

Are we going to carry on

 

[cricket.mad]

Hahaha...typical pper.

I was surprised at people like that poster.people who just doesnt even know the basic rules of the game come over to online forums to post.unbelievable stuff

 

[FanofCricket]

sun is coming out at some paerts of ground.

 

[Logical]

Pakistan will hopefully get 10-12 an over from here with Afridi/Wahab. No hope from Misbah.

 

[liv_2_die22]

lol ... Porterfield doing a Misbah on Ireland

 

[Big Mac]

Whats wrong with everyones attitude?? Whats the point of a win if it's aided by weather.

Two points actually.

 

[Grunge101]

This sucks. 3 overs of Tahir/Duminy/AB they will now not bowl. 7 bowlers of Steyn/Morkel/Abbott. Ughhhh I was looking forward for Pak to play those 3 medium/slow paced bowlers

This...those 3 overs would've been very handy..

Whilst this revised plan does mean they can take more risks now,i dont fancy our chances against Steyn and Morkel..

 

[cricketInsight]

SAF is losing 3 overs as well.

But they know that at the beginning of the inning

 

[habibi hayya]

Need 60+ runs here. A target of 260 in 47 overs will be a tough task.

 

[Aloo Chaat]

We need ABD and Amla out quickly!

 

[dhump]

Best for Pakistan we cannot bat 50 overs anyways...

 

[dildilpak]

This. I bet Afridi will start hitting mindlessly at every bowl now and get out in the next over or two.

 

[liv_2_die22]

my bad .. cant be a misbah as he got out

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Misbah would be looking for a score of 220 from here. A tough ask for him, nevertheless a good try by his standards

 

[FreeBird]

Need 60+ runs here. A target of 260 in 47 overs will be a tough task.

Yeah, send a text to Misbah. He may need this advice.

 

[Sam18696]

Afridi needs to go berserk here. Wahab must play a few shots too if he comes out to bat.

 

[TNA]

I hope bowlers are restricted to bowl only 8 overs

 

[cricketInsight]

Misbah still need to play all the overs. Let Afridi and Wahab give it a go

 

[H2O1]

Need 60+ runs here. A target of 260 in 47 overs will be a tough task.

Dont even think . 260 is very easy for SA . Wet outfield

Two points actually.

Id be happier with two points won with our performance alone and not weather intervening.

 

[WiiiCKET]

doesn't it mean that the final target will be more than what we actually scored?

 

[FanofCricket]

sarfraz played briliantly today.

 

[rhony]

Yeah, send a text to Misbah. He may need this advice.

Small ground bro. Also, will our fast bowlers be able to bowl 10 overs each if it's a 47 over game?

 

[Big Mac]

I wasn't aware that it's only raining for Pakistan.

 

[Salma_T]

So not in agreement with D/L?

 

[FanofCricket]

looks sunny out there a bit.

 

[nads_rocks]

Play back on. Guess make as many runs as we can now.

 

[Pakistani Pace]

Game back on boys

 

[Bilsher007]

ok back live

 

[Firebreaker]

Pathetic Younis erupts again

 

[FanofCricket]

looks like rain won't come again

 

[dhump]

260 should be the targer

 

[UpInTheAir]

I wasn't aware that it's only raining for Pakistan.

Based on the discussions that were happening here earlier, it did favor Pakistan. But I think 47 overs is fair.

 

[FanofCricket]

kyle abbot starts again

 

[Junaids]

There's not much batting left in the hutch. Afridi and Wahab Riaz could be gone in a couple of balls.

240 from 40 was a considerably more tempting option for Pakistan than ekeing together a score from 41 balls on top of the 197-5 they already have.

This could easily turn into 226-9.

 

[Salma_T]

I wasn't aware that it's only raining for Pakistan.

exactly

 

[imshally81]

Single

 

[Pakistani Pace]

Single

 

[Firebreaker]

Clouds gone

 

[UpInTheAir]

So not in agreement with D/L?

I wasn't in favor of a washout, or 240 from 40. I'm okay with 47 overs.

 

[Bilsher007]

misbah has to hit out..T-20 style

 

[cricket87]

Only two bowlers can bowl a maximum of 10 ten overs, with a maximum of nine overs for the rest. There will only be ten minutes for lunch as well.

 

[FanofCricket]

[Sam18696]

Cmon Misbah it's your turn now.

 

[Pakistani Pace]

Misbah should do the same !

 

[Bilsher007]

Afridi needs to time his shots better. 6 more overs left...250 on ???

 

[dhump]

Somehow 60 more needed in 6

 

[FreeBird]

Misbah needs to get out.
He can't hit for his life.

Need Wahab Riaz on the crease

 

[Sam18696]

Steyn time

 

[ForeverIndian]

Just bowl a full toss to afridi just outside the off stump and he is a goner.

 

[Pakistani Pace]

This is gonna Be Explosive

 

[Justcrazy]

[H2O1]

Misbah settled for maiden odi hundred
