Shoaib Malik special takes Pakistan to narrow three-wicket win over Afghanistan in the Asia Cup

[Plumb]

Shame on you Sarfi

 

[DuckMaster]

"Trundler" clean bowls the "best captain" in contemporary cricket. Wow!!!

 

[Madplayer]

besharam

I would take younis khan over him

 

[Something]

Malik and Sarfraz are not known for their six hitting.

Malik is.

 

[InziRules]

"Trundler" clean bowls the "best captain" in contemporary cricket. Wow!!!

What does captaincy have to do with batting btw?

 

[B_Positive]

This guts feels he is daddy of this team and while batting he ends up being a bit

 

[YousafTheBeast]

Sarfraz the finisher

 

[Amjid Javed]

Need some lusty blows from Asif if he can pick the spinners.

 

[Fineline]

Guy has forgotten how to bat!He is no less than a passenger in this team!

 

[Usman Chadda]

Sarfraz is very low on confidence right now.

 

[Sirris]

What the heck?!

 

[jnaveen1980]

Even with singles you can easily win. just 2 additional strikes.

 

[On_the_up]

Why has Asif Ali been kept back.

Game on a knife edge now.

 

[B_Positive]

Asif Ali needs to win this. Show us what you do in PSL...

 

[Fahdi]

Yaar

 

[ExplicitAI]

Sarfraz c'mon man you're better than that!

 

[YousafTheBeast]

Umar akmal would’ve been perfect at this situation, and he can keep

 

[ARK Rafay]

Hopefully Asif can whack a few before getting out. Malik to see us home.

 

[InziRules]

If Malik bats to the end, we win

 

[Tyler Durden]

Sarfaraz loves minnows.No way is he going back to the pavillion without winning this match.

Where are you mate?

 

[daytrader]

Game changing sixes coming up this over

 

[Nikhil_cric]

C'mon Pakistan finish this match off .

 

[Asif321]

Ab kya hogha

 

[DuckMaster]

What is he, BTW, then?

 

[Fineline]

People want Haris and Imam to be kicked out after one failure but in case of Sarfaraz,its all good!

 

[The Viper]

Sarfraz batting woes continue.

 

[Markhor]

This situation is why Asif Ali was brought into the team. Hopefully he can be a lower order finisher for us and find some boundaries here.

 

[Something]

How is Asif Ali against spin?

 

[Asif321]

Thai is scary

 

[jnaveen1980]

Pakistan will win. But you gotta say there are lot of nervous moments for them.

 

[Fineline]

Where are you mate?

Yeah I was wrong bro!He can't even score against minnows!

 

[Madplayer]

Need at least 4 sixes from Asif.

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

3 fulls tosses from a guy bowling 120 and the two can only get 7 runs, less said about sarfraz the better

i still support him as captain but if he cant cant score runs at 4 or 5 he certainly wont do any better at 6 or lower

 

[castortroy]

India would have chased this down with 3-4 wickets down

 

[Fahdi]

Sarfraz needs a wake-up call. He has been pathetic.

 

[ExplicitAI]

Two strong Punjabi batsmen at the crease, should be waiting for a six any time soon.

 

[AZulfi]

What does captaincy have to do with batting btw?

A non performing captain simply cannot inspire the team. Cannot remember the last time Sarfraz made any meaningful runs

 

[joeldsouzax]

you guys will win, common, its just a close match every time someone hits few sixes in the last overs and gets it close

 

[DuckMaster]

What does captaincy have to do with batting btw?

ok. He still is the best captain in contemporary cricket.

 

[B_Positive]

Singles wont do anything. Malik needs to go for it now. Still its doable.

 

[Etherealistic]

2 overs from Rashid Khan still to go. Panic mode!

 

[jnaveen1980]

Afghanistan has a good set of bowlers for these conditions. But every now and then when they bowl a bad ball you should penalize it.

 

[Fineline]

What a joke!We might lose this!

 

[Asif321]

Pakistan losing

 

[Something]

Last boundary was at 40.1

 

[Madplayer]

Asif is struggling. My word Pakistan losing this.

 

[MRSN]

People want Haris and Imam to be kicked out after one failure but in case of Sarfaraz,its all good!

he is new golden boy remember.

 

[Tyler Durden]

Yeah I was wrong bro!He can't even score against minnows!

He looks much worse than our Done and dusted Dhoni. Pakistan better look out for a new WK batsman!

 

[B_Positive]

One big over will still turn it around. Cmon guyss. Do what you do best in PSL...

 

[Asif321]

Don’t see Pakistan winning this

 

[Nikhil_cric]

39 off 4. Still doable. Don't wanna see Afghan Bros winning. They need to go for their shots here .

 

[Fineline]

he is new golden boy remember.

Yup!

 

[MRSN]

ok. He still is the best captain in contemporary cricket.

sure. He is gonna guide Malik,Asif and the tailenders how to win the game here from the dressing room.

 

[B_Positive]

We have given too much respect to this Rashid. take him to cleaners.

 

[joeldsouzax]

Yeah, just a couple of 6s will do the trick!! lol

 

[GLORY OF '92]

We are losing. Pathetic batting

 

[Asif321]

Malik is only hope

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

I havent sweared this much in years

 

[Jimmy10]

this is getting interesting now

 

[Fineline]

He looks much worse than our Done and dusted Dhoni. Pakistan better look out for a new WK batsman!

Ikr!Rizwan promised to be good initially but at present,he is trash!

 

[Madplayer]

Can Asif Ali hit Rashid?

 

[Dingolfy]

Come on Afghans, get Daamad out and win this!

 

[InziRules]

I remember when I called Asif a hack and he managed to hit some sixes and people called me out.

Still a hack

 

[Something]

Malik's our only hope.

Where are the people who were supporting Imam and Babar's batting style early on. They are partly responsible for the position we're in now.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Ali to finish this in 8 balls?

 

[Amjid Javed]

Still eating dot balls what the hell.

 

[Fineline]

Rashid taken to the cleaners!

 

[fluke]

i hope malik keeps his calm inshAllah

 

[InziRules]

I remember when I called Asif a hack and he managed to hit some sixes and people called me out.

Still a hack

And just as I post this, he hits a 6 Loooooooool

 

[Madplayer]

6

 

[Etherealistic]

Even if by chance AFG lose this one, they have done a great job so far.

 

[Something]

I remember when I called Asif a hack and he managed to hit some sixes and people called me out.

Still a hack

Say that again!!!!!

 

[B_Positive]

Yes yes yess.. That is it... boy

 

[Asif321]

Thank you Asif

 

[fluke]

sixxxxxxxx

 

[ExplicitAI]

 

[gani999]

Neat spell from this Mujib guy. Afghanistan clearly have more than Rashid and Mohd Nabi in their attack.

 

[Madplayer]

Out

 

[InziRules]

And the hack is gone

 

[Asif321]

Yaaar
