South Africa defeat Pakistan by 7 runs in 2nd T20I to take an unassailable 2-0 lead in T20I series

[Hasan123]

When he is given the license to play freely he does. Look at the NZ ODI’s in 2016 or 17 when we played the two ODI’s.

I think he may be better as a opener. He knows how to take advantage of the PP overs. And after that he can bat through the innings. Also he needs to believe in himself more. He has every shot in the book sometimes he lacks belief or is scared of failing. Needs to believe in himself more.

 

[Abdullah]

Talat needs to keep going for it

 

[Dark_Horse]

So babar wont get an IPL contract dear Indian fans????

I believe he I’ll not get because of the reasons Indian bowling has improved still filling of 8 teams bowling and extra all rounder makes foreign bowlers and all rounders valuable plus he is a Pakistani. Though Karachi should pay him extra crore after today

 

[Speedster1]

Yeah 3 times so far!

Nah he's done it 4 times

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Babar + Talat = Lahori masterclass!

 

[Titan24]

Probably the best LO innings in many years by a PAK player - now he needs to finish it. Quality of shot making is of highest class.

Well put.

 

[Rana]

SA fielders targetting babar instead of the stumps

 

[Ahmed216]

He looks ao good while playing these proper strokes. Sadly he is the only one we have.

Yes

 

[Titan24]

Babar + Talat = Lahori masterclass!

In ODIs, it was Babar + Imam

 

[coy0607]

Babar should open in ODIs too

 

[Hasan123]

Need Babar to stay till the end.

 

[RobinJay]

It’s his promotion as opener

Definitely. He plays really well in the PowerPlay.

 

[Rana]

So much time Bobby, dispatch him into the stands!

 

[pratiktc]

This inns from Babar is nearly as good as the Root one against SA in T20 WC

 

[Ahmed216]

Probably the best LO innings in many years by a PAK player - now he needs to finish it. Quality of shot making is of highest class.

I was about to type the same. Stunning strokeplay

 

[Slim]

Babar + Talat = Lahori masterclass!

LOL @ you plugging Talat who is just struggling.

 

[Rana]

Still a decent over

 

[Hasan123]

Be interested to see who comes in next.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Imad wasim just gave 9 in 4 on this track. that is gold

 

[Dark_Horse]

Babar + Talat = Lahori masterclass!

Plz don’t say it in case of future failure they will be called as lahori mafia by some .....

 

[Barragan]

What was that from talat?

 

[Slim]

Yes

Can i interest you in one Ahmed Shehzad

 

[Titan24]

Talat needs to take charge

 

[Rana]

LOL @ you plugging Talat who is just struggling.

No he isnt. Watch the match not cricinfo

 

[a_tahir]

The debutant deserves a wicket but i want pakistan to win

 

[Shandarchowka]

It's a minnow level attack. Bsbar has always been a gr8 minnow basher. This SA team will finish bottom 2 in IPL.

Apply burnol dude...

 

[QalandarFan]

Imad wasim just gave 9 in 4 on this track. that is gold

Amazing spell it was. Shaheen also bowled well.

 

[Slim]

No he isnt. Watch the match not cricinfo

Im watching the match, had there been no Babar at the other end, Talat would have been getting abused.

 

[BhootKhan]

Shaba Talat need a boundary from you.

 

[Madplayer]

Babar looking to murder Shamsi now.

 

[babajee]

Can i interest you in one Ahmed Shehzad

Please, no.

 

[imshally81]

 

[Pete Rose]

Talat needs a few more shots, in the context of the game right now

 

[Rana]

Have you seen a reverse sweep 4 like that ever by a pakistani?

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

In ODIs, it was Babar + Imam

End of the Model Town gang and dawn of the new Lahori crew

 

[Slim]

Good shot Talat. :kagiso

 

[xricket]

I think Babar is not picking Shami off the hand.

 

[QalandarFan]

by talat.

 

[Titan24]

Good shot from talat in the gap

 

[imshally81]

Shamsi bhai got some treatment..

 

[Shandarchowka]

Haters

 

[Rana]

Im watching the match, had there been no Babar at the other end, Talat would have been getting abused.

hes 23 off 14

 

[yuvi]

Apply burnol dude...

Well if you think scoring runs against this attack is gr8 achievement, it just shows your low standards. Just stating the facts

 

[aukhan]

Babar should open in ODIs too

No no.3 is perfect for him. Imam should be paired with Shan for the next series.

I hope sharjeel returns after the WC.

 

[Titan24]

End of the Model Town gang and dawn of the new Lahori crew

Hahaha. Yes.

 

[Dark_Horse]

Imad wasim just gave 9 in 4 on this track. that is gold

Actually Imad Wasim should also bowl in odi at start it will help to keep score down (Amir main purpose) plus fill new ball void somewhat while scuffing the bowl from one side for latter use unless conditions are highly favourable for seamers. Hafeez used to do that in 2010 early. Imad in CT

 

[Pete Rose]

Shamsi length has been a lot better than Shadab over the last few games

 

[Rana]

Beauty

 

[Slim]

hes 23 off 14

When i made my post he was 19 for 13.

 

[Madplayer]

Massive spin from Shamzi.

 

[Shandarchowka]

Well if you think scoring runs against this attack is gr8 achievement, it just shows your low standards. Just stating the facts

Damed if you do damned if you don't.. make up your mind

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Plz don’t say it in case of future failure they will be called as lahori mafia by some .....

The Model town gang is already done.

 

[BhootKhan]

Good over again.

 

[Slim]

Talat wasting the last two balls. At least take a single, man.

 

[QalandarFan]

Talat should always play in the top 3. It was a dumb move to bring him in at 6/7 whatever it was in ODI’s.

 

[Madplayer]

Shamzi done. Thank God. SA have done a blunder by picking only one spinner.

 

[MRSN]

Talat is really average. These two deliveries should have been dispatched.

 

[Slim]

Well if you think scoring runs against this attack is gr8 achievement, it just shows your low standards. Just stating the facts

Dont let the door hit you on your way out

 

[Ahmed216]

Can i interest you in one Ahmed Shehzad

Nooooo please

 

[m.shah]

Wow that is some spin

 

[QalandarFan]

I think we played Shamsi well there 31 from his 4. No wickets either.

 

[Ahmed216]

Can i interest you in one Ahmed Shehzad

Nooooo please

 

[aukhan]

Have to admit. Islmabad united think thank have the eyes of identifying talent. The other teams poorly treat their lesser known players.

 

[Rana]

2 more!

 

[jnaveen1980]

8 overs 73 runs.. as easy as it gets. 6 overs are enough.

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Can Babar break Ahmed Shehzad's record?

 

[Hasan123]

That was brilliant placement. Don't see that often from Pakistan batters.

 

[imshally81]

Good running again..

 

[Pete Rose]

Need to get that required runrate down further. As good as this is, they are still playing required runrate

 

[QalandarFan]

Can Babar break Ahmed Shehzad's record?

Hope he does.

 

[BhootKhan]

Well if you think scoring runs against this attack is gr8 achievement, it just shows your low standards. Just stating the facts

He scored in whole tour
So no point there.

 

[m.shah]

Can Babar break Ahmed Shehzad's record?

Which record,?

 

[yuvi]

Dont let the door hit you on your way out

This is a spinning track, SA have picked only one spinner. Shows they absolute don't care much about winning these. They are just trying new players.

 

[Hasan123]

Talat should look to accelerate.

 

[Rana]

I recon Talat can afford to go for it here, the platform is set, Babar needs to stay at the end

 

[world cup captain]

I'm not sure about this but Talat doesn't seems to be very balanced when moving around the crease. Anyone else pick that up?

 

[QalandarFan]

Which record,?

111 Runs - most runs by a Pak batsman in T20 Innings.

 

[MRSN]

No hitting ability in Talat.

 

[imshally81]

 

[Slim]

This is a spinning track, SA have picked only one spinner. Shows they absolute don't care much about winning these. They are just trying new players.

Of course, teams dont care about winning against Pakistan, got you. You can go now. Thx
