What's new

South Africa v Pakistan | 2nd T20I | Johannesburg| Feb 3rd, 2019 | South Africa Innings

May as well ask Rizwan to leave the gloves and bowl. What kind of stupidity is this to bowl from Fakhar when you have genuine bowlers
 
Fakhar has called to increase score for S Africa. Pathetic captaincy.
 
Wicket is a pretty decent one and Pak has done well or I should say Imad has done well to restrict SA till now
 
If Pak somehow win this, then Sarfraz needs to be called on an emergency and on the first flight
 
Shinwari is a hack. People should not be fooled by his occasional 4-fer and the odd blitz against the tail.

He has no bowling intelligence and will get smashed by good batsmen 8/10 times.
 
Looks like Shadab is missing Sarfraz more than anyone
 
Ntini is pure trash on the mic but I dream of him and David Lloyed commentary combo one day
 
Still bowling fast, and short. Gotta bowl slow and not too full.
 
Dussen is a perfect replacement for Amla as a Test number 3.

Just a short while ago people were saying SA cricket is finished lol

They have some real good talents coming through, and these new players are already complete products.
 
Probably a match losing over by Fakhar just like Malik's last match over.

Trying to be smart but backfired in both matches.
 
Very poor bowling from shadab. Bowling too fast. and too short or too full.
 
In what sense 29 is only 29? These are white players who usually don't play beyond 35. They are not like Misbah who would keep on playing till 45.

Because he has been playing international cricket for a while so people may assume he is older.
 
Shamsi will run through our batting line-up
 
Don't think we can chase over 180 runs (S africa may score 200+) considering we have softies, fake all rounders, taienders batsmen
 
One thing is for sure: Sarfraz has suddenly yet again become the savior. People will say his captaincy is the difference even if he doesn't bat well.
 
Our ‘fans’ were comparing him to Yadav and Rashid. :91:

Yadav played atleast three more years of domestic and IPL before making debut which does make world of a difference especially for a spinner.
 
The “we would have won with Sarfraz” drama will also end soon.
 
The 11.5, ball, which shadab bowled, was only 78kph. Thats where he should bowl
 
37 runs in 4 overs from Shadab and Fakhar on a spinning pitch is inexcusable.
 
Actually, for a batsman first thing you should look at his shot making ability - how crisply he can hit across 360. Defense, batting intelligence, shot selection comes with age and experience. He is hitting (just out) every ball middle of the bat from pacers and looks very balanced in his stance; no reason why he can't make it. AdV is gone, Amla is 36, Faf 35, JP 34, Miller probably 30, Dussen & Reeza are also 29+ - after WC, there will be at least 3 openings in SAF line-up; he has age, opportunity and talent to make it big - why not?
There are so many questions that will be answered only when he play more.
How is he away from home?? Against better bowlers than Shenwari.
How is he against spin??
Does he have the temprament for international cricket?
And many more
 
Why Rizwan is playing T20? This guy is not international material
 
I hope this is the last game Shinwari ever plays for Pakistan.

Gives me some real Gul PTSD
 
I am not too concerned that our bowlers are being smashed rather it is inability of our batters ... sixes are part of T20... hopefully we can hit a few later too
 
Unbelievable

Pitch is turning, doesn't bring himself on, bowls someone who hardly bowls (Zaman) and Shinwari continues to bowl short

Pathetic
 
Its a shame our full strength team is getting smashed like this.Even Faf is rested.He must be laughing right now
 
Shinwari is a pathetic bowler. Please get this bowling machine out of this team.
 
Great showbaazi by Shadab again. He is a very talented 12th man.
 
Not sure why Waqas Maqsood was dropped from T20s after just one game where he showed some good slower balls and pace variation
 
Shadab is probably the best in world there with Miller and Kohli
 
You get rid of Wahab and Sarfraz and the replacements Shinwari and Rizwan are even worse. This is why Pakistan recycles its washed up cricketers. Wahab would be a serious contender now for the World Cup.
 
Shinwari, Gul and Junaid are all brothers. Hasan is their step-brother.
