South Africa (183/9) secure an 11-run victory against Pakistan (172/8) in the 1st T20I to go 1-0 up in the 3-match series

[DeadlyVenom]

We need justice for Niazi.

 

[Aviator]

Tayyab tahir is the Chor Bazar version of Asif Ali...

 

[mango_bite77]

If i was at ground, I would have would have jumped into the stadium and run behind Rizwan with my left shoe

 

[Zeshan547]

Rizwan should come back not out to boost his avg to try and get to 50.

guys joke is on us for wasting our sleep for this joke of team and management. What a waste.

 

[shah_1]

If this isn't statpadding what is it then can please all rizwan fans explain

This isn't even statpadding. It is worse than that.

I can't even describe it

 

[mominsaigol]

We need justice for Niazi.

I can make one for the lolz

 

[Champ_Pal]

Rinku Singh and Tilak Varma made mince meat of the same bowlers. Pakistan in comparison are being exposed like school boys.

India faced different set of bowlers. It was Jansen, Coetzee, Similane and Maharaj.

 

[Hellion]

Such talents are only found in Pakistan

Oh don't worry. The Bangla lads are there to keep you company.

 

[emranabbas]

Rizwan will launch it after his 50 and make up for his strike rate have faith boys

 

[mominsaigol]

If i was at ground, I would have would have jumped into the stadium and run behind Rizwan with my left shoe

Take me with you, My right shoe is an entire boot

 

[Deewana Mastana]

guys joke is on us for wasting our sleep for this joke of team and management. What a waste.

Koi nahi tu nay kaun sa 6 baje uth ke kaam pe jaana hai yaar

 

[PakistanMeriJaan]

This batting lineup is shocking.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Whenever i feel bored with T20 format i watch Rizwan's batting. It brings my love back for this format. Very elegant and powerful striker.

 

[Mrhandsome]

Why the hell isnt Irfan there

 

[Savak]

India faced different set of bowlers. It was Jansen, Coetzee, Similane and Maharaj.

That is actually a much superior bowling attack and makes Pakistan look even worse in comparison.

 

[Snowflake]

Wow this is some shameful stuff from the captain. If there was ever a template to show for an utterly selfish innings - this is it

 

[mominsaigol]

Rizwan will launch it after his 50 and make up for his strike rate have faith boys

Fastest half century coming up

 

[emranabbas]

This batting lineup is shocking.

Batting line up is fine rizwan is shocking

 

[sweep_shot]

Pakistan should've accelerated harder.

 

[kingusama92]

Rizwan in his head is 100% thinking he's put together a good innings here.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Oh don't worry. The Bangla lads are there to keep you company.

They're yet to find diversity which Pakistan has in abundance already.

 

[mominsaigol]

Batting line up is fine rizwan is shocking

Saim is good, Fakhar needs to come in. Haris should also replace Usman Khan, tayyab shpuld bat higher and without chawal rizwam at the other end

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Pakistan should've accelerated harder.

62 off 24

Irfan to crack a 10 ball 40 to win the game

 

[emranabbas]

The lineup looks shaky if both Babar and Rizwan are playing. Honestly, I don't see us winning with that setup.

Ideally, Omair and Saim should open, and maybe Babar can come in at 3.

The problem is figuring out where Rizwan fits. I trust Babar more, he'll either get out early or score faster than Rizwan.

and If we open with Babar and Rizwan, we’re basically saying good bye to powerplay advantage.

Boys I warned you here

 

[Hellion]

Broadcast has had issues at least 15-20 times today. Ridiculous.

 

[Mrhandsome]

If this isnt the end of Rizwan and Babar in T20, im done with this

 

[zarak]

waiting for 50

 

[Ahmed216]

@Ahmed216 @Kianig89 will spread this nonsense here

No one can beat you

 

[Aviator]

InshaAllah boys will bounce back in 4th and 5th T20i... Oh wait it's a 3 match series!

 

[mominsaigol]

Boys I warned you here

Our current team playing atm is weaker then the one that played against Zimbabwe

 

[Champ_Pal]

That is actually a much superior bowling attack and makes Pakistan look even worse in comparison.

Agreed. This SA bunch of bowlers are very raw and inexperienced.

Pakistan has themselves to blame. No intent from the batsmen except for Ayub.

 

[Omer2002]

Umps.playin with emotions no balllll ahjaja

 

[Mrhandsome]

Whole body language becomes negative the moment Babat comes on

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need 60 runs in 24 balls.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

That's a brilliant take by Klaasen

 

[Rana]

Rizwan in his head is 100% thinking he's put together a good innings here.

This is 100% accurate

He doesn’t think he’s a problem

 

[followed]

Lol it would be such a joke if rizwan raises his bat after getting to his fifty.

 

[emranabbas]

Broadcast has had issues at least 15-20 times today. Ridiculous.

Sorry mate South Africa and Pakistan are poor countries we can't give the luxury of Jio star sports

 

[Aviator]

Bring in abdullah shafique and this team would be invincible in T20s...

 

[Nasty Naz]

The lack of talent evaluation is shocking. They all seriously believe Shaheen is a better hitter than Irfan?

 

[Rana]

No one can beat you

Yes, at telling the truth before anyone could see it.

 

[adi_62941]

these two mindless cricketers dont even know abc of winning an international match

 

[mominsaigol]

Klaseen exposing rizzu as a keeper and not just a batsmem

 

[mango_bite77]

wasted my sleep for this crap, have to wake up at 4 in the morning to catch early morning flight. Pathetic performance

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Maphaka missed it and they run 2

 

[Omer2002]

I have worked it out boys...Rizzy to be fair to.him.wants to CARRY HIS BAT the first guy to do in history of T20s

 

[castortroy]

Afridi is a fully fledged tail ender.

Why has he come in?

 

[MMHS]

What a pathetic T20 innings by PAK captain!! Alone took PAK out of chase inside first few overs.

 

[emranabbas]

The lack of talent evaluation is shocking. They all seriously believe Shaheen is a better hitter than Irfan?

Yarri dosti kicking in again

 

[PakistanMeriJaan]

Why on earth is SSA batting at no 6?

 

[adi_62941]

Aqib as a coach has a weird ways to destabilize a settled team with his decisions.

 

[followed]

This should have been sent for a six.

 

[mominsaigol]

wasted my sleep for this crap, have to wake up at 4 in the morning to catch early morning flight. Pathetic performance

Go to bed brother, rizzu ain't worth the jetlag

 

[jnaveen1980]

Shaheen Afridi is a certified slogger isn't he. Bat, hands, legs all go in different directions.

 

[adi_62941]

Shaheen thinks he is an allrounder. This guy has attitude taller than himalayas.

 

[Hellion]

Sorry mate South Africa and Pakistan are poor countries we can't give the luxury of Jio star sports

No issue with Supersport when India or SL toured.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

52 off 21

 

[mominsaigol]

This is 100% accurate

He doesn’t think he’s a problem

Rizzu at the press speaking in broken English: Allah helped me score a half century however my boys didn't chase it and betrayed me and Allah.

 

[Omer2002]

Why on earth is SSA batting at no 6?

Bwcause he ia dping better than rizzy and also others cant do.nothing
I have nothinh against shaheen batting above rest although not a good msg to rest is it

 

[PakistanMeriJaan]

This is shocking

Batting line up is fine rizwan is shocking

he doesn’t belong in this format it seems, neither does Babar

 

[Rana]

What a pathetic T20 innings by PAK captain!! Alone took PAK out of chase inside first few overs.

Here comes another one now who has an issue with Rizwan having been those who praised him as if he is Gilchrist+Boucher in one

 

[followed]

Rizwan's desire to bat still unmatched. He ran so fast like he is gonna hit 3 sixes in these 3 balls.

 

[Omer2002]

Rizzu at the press speaking in broken English: Allah helped me score a half century however my boys didn't chase it and betrayed me and Allah.

Hahahahaha that was a cracker

 

[Champ_Pal]

Shaheen Afridi is a certified slogger isn't he. Bat, hands, legs all go in different directions.

Super tall players always look awkward when they run or play shots.

 

[emranabbas]

No issue with Supersport when India or SL toured.

Then they are just doing it purposely to torture us pakistani fans in protest of the hybrid model Pakistan is demanding from BCCI

 

[Deewana Mastana]

6 by Rizwan

50 off 50

Is that the breaking of the shackles?!

 

[castortroy]

Pcb need to put their ego aside and get Fakhar back into this team.

These new batters are some of the worst I have seen.

 

[adi_62941]

Niazi is completely wasting a spot. Easily he can be replaced with shadab

 

[Champ_Pal]

The chase has started officially by Rizwan.

Game on!!!

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Rizwan is down and calls for physio

Another break in play

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Crunch time now.

Riz has his eye in. Target is gettable.

Pakistan will win.

Yippee kaya mphackas

 

[jnaveen1980]

Rizwan switched to Daniel Day lewis mode

 

[neonoir]

Chaos!!!

 

[Mrhandsome]

Our T20 team is as archaic as Ramizs pathetic commentary

 

[sweep_shot]

43 are needed off 20 balls.

It is doable. They have wickets in hand.

 

[jnaveen1980]

mapaka is too raw for this level

 

[Omer2002]

Nahiiiiii Rizzi injured this cant beee

 

[Champ_Pal]

43 off 20 balls.

Easily gettable in this day and age.

 

[emranabbas]

Daramay baazi started after 1 big boundry

 

[jnaveen1980]

SA is choking lol 3 run out chances missed in one ball
