South Africa vs Pakistan | 1st ODI | 19 Jan, 2019 | Port Elizabeth | South Africa innings Thread

[Titan24]

If there is a little reverse than Hassan can come into play otherwise spinners especially Shadab will need to take care of these middle overs

 

[pratiktc]

Amla late dabbing Faheem to third man boundary. What trundler level pace is this

 

[MMHS]

I was implying that its a wrong terminology in official terms. Personally any person or poster can call a player whatever he wants.

Apart from personal shaming - what people can do, when he is picked even in Test as all-rounder & doesn’t bowl after a player (Ross) complained for his action. If he was a BD player, I would have launched FaceBook shaming platform for whole nation to get after him & BCB.

 

[Shafi]

People need to understand that this a batting paradise.
40 off 10 overs isn't that bad.

In the same pitch we will be 25/3.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Wahab Riaz’s top speed would reach around 153-155

he's not bowled more than 150kph for a good 2-3 years.

At best he's been between 143-148kph with the odd effort one at 150kph which is rare.

 

[NauV]

Bring in Hussain Talat for Faheem Ashraf (or the best batting all rounder in the country)
Shaheen Afridi for Imad Wasim
Amir for Shinwari (either/or . . depending on who is bolwing better, but i think amir would be better in england)

and we would be getting close to the line up we want at the world cup . .

 

[Mamoon]

320 is on the cards here.

 

[Titan24]

Maybe Abbas? Once he is fully fit again?

Not a good enough fielder for LOIs so not sure if Mickey will want him. Otherwise he would have played post Australia test in UAE

 

[Pete Rose]

He has gotta become just a little bid upredictable

 

[MMHS]

Why Jani is conceding everything on leg side?

 

[AFM]

Time to bring on some seniority to rescue the day

 

[ExpressPacer]

Imad is useless here.

 

[Fineline]

Imad "I am economical" Wasim being taken to the cleaners!

 

[QalandarFan]

Can Shadab pull a Chahal for us?

 

[Gullycricket]

Ronaldo bowling crap

 

[Pete Rose]

I don’t know why Rameez is sound extra grating to me today

 

[Madplayer]

Time to bring on some seniority to rescue the day

Wish granted

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Hafeez on

 

[QalandarFan]

Not a good enough fielder for LOIs so not sure if Mickey will want him. Otherwise he would have played post Australia test in UAE

He’s been struggling with his shoulder.

 

[ARK Rafay]

Time for Professor!

 

[Shafi]

Wish after the series Inzi and Hafeez gets kicked out

 

[Gullycricket]

Hope Shadab destroys them like chahal

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Imad's version of the flatspinner- flying saucer ball dispatched b Amla.

 

[Fineline]

I don’t know why Rameez is sound extra grating to me today

Your Wish has been granted!Professor has arrived!

 

[Pete Rose]

Shinwari and Imad have the same bowling option

 

[Titan24]

Apart from personal shaming - what people can do, when he is picked even in Test as all-rounder & doesn’t bowl after a player (Ross) complained for his action. If he was a BD player, I would have launched FaceBook shaming platform for whole nation to get after him & BCB.

Its like max 1 year remaining in his career, no point in putting so much effort shaming him.

 

[Mueez]

Professor * has come to the rescue...

 

[QalandarFan]

10 an over from here 448!

 

[Greenstorm]

350 on the cards if Hassan does not take wickets.

 

[Pete Rose]

Call him
Call him
Call him
Call him
call him

 

[AAli98]

Paks top 4 should he Fakhar Sharjeel Baba Haris, they may not he world beaters at least they get pak of to a hoos start.

Knowing pak theyl go with Imam shan masood hafeez asad

 

[Mamoon]

Expect Hafeez to start chucking around the 5th over, or if he gets his for 3 boundaries.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Hafeez bowling with a super clean action.

 

[Gullycricket]

Ramiz hyping Hafeez as Warne

 

[Ahmed216]

Why Jani is conceding everything on leg side?

Strong breeze. Hes bowling from the wrong end. What more can we expect from captain clueless

 

[AFM]

Some lovely senior darts down leg here

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Call him
Call him
Call him
Call him
call him

) But he's bowling clean now.

 

[Pete Rose]

everything looks a bit flat. Not loving the bowling team selection.
I

 

[ExpressPacer]

Easy single on offer. No pressure on batsmen.

 

[Raja Danish]

Talat is miles better than Faheem

In batting or bowling?

 

[Madplayer]

350 on cards.

 

[Pete Rose]

) But he's bowling clean now.

His clean bowling is filth. Call him for bowling filth

 

[Shafi]

Our bowling is becoming as bad as Zimbabwe. Struggling to take a wicket.

 

[Gullycricket]

Old man Hafeez

 

[Titan24]

Good effort from hafeez at this age

 

[Usman Chadda]

There is absolutely zero pressure being built here. Bowlers bowling either side of the wicket

 

[QalandarFan]

Waah Hafeez Sobers!

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Great fielding by the one blessed in all facets

 

[Pete Rose]

Rameez is someone you should hire to describe things for the visually impaired

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Maybe Abbas? Once he is fully fit again?

Only 3 seam bowlers in Pakistan.

Abbas
Asif
Junaid

the rest either cannot or rely on swinging conditions ala Mohammad Amir.

 

[Ellipsism]

Blessed

 

[AFM]

How did Sarfraz win the CT? Looking clueless.

 

[Sher Khan]

Sarfraz is such a senseless Captain. The need of the hour is wickets not drying runs up. Why is he hiding Shadab and Hasan our two attacking options? Instead going to defensive option.

 

[ExpressPacer]

Hafeez looks like he knows what he's doing.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

His clean bowling is filth. Call him for bowling filth

Yeah, looks totally harmless. Atleast Imad got one to turn.

 

[Titan24]

Only 3 seam bowlers in Pakistan.

Abbas
Asif
Junaid

the rest either cannot or rely on swinging conditions ala Mohammad Amir.

Shaheen as well.

 

[AFM]

Lovely darts

 

[ARK Rafay]

Maddy andar, Malik thora sa neechy - Hafeez

 

[Kohli The King of Chase]

Lol, no attack whatsoever.

Easy singles being given as gifts.

 

[hayder ali]

Hendricks to score 200

 

[Gullycricket]

Hafeez is being Hyped so much here

 

[Shafi]

5 days break still our bowlers look tired. Pathetic

 

[ExpressPacer]

Chucking begins.

 

[Raja Danish]

Paks top 4 should he Fakhar Sharjeel Baba Haris, they may not he world beaters at least they get pak of to a hoos start.

Knowing pak theyl go with Imam shan masood hafeez asad

Excellent Top 4 this. But it is merely a wishful thing. Would love to see this happen asap.

 

[Madplayer]

Hafeez looks like he knows what he's doing.

Not bending the arm in his initial overs?

 

[AFM]

Hafeez looks like he knows what he's doing.

The power of seniority

 

[PakPremi]

Happy to see our bhai has come back to form. Love to give him 200.

 

[Amjid Javed]

We need wickets here as SA are gaining momentum, cant just go through motions now of just bowling spin from both ends for a period of time.

 

[Green Patriot]

Hafeez ko hatao bhai.
We need wickets.

 

[Titan24]

Sarfaraz seems to be waiting for a wicket to fall before bringing fileders in.

 

[castortroy]

Game is already over for pak.

Even if SA collapse the will get to 260 minimum which will be too much for pak

 

[Khalistani99]

South Africa is looking to massacre Pakistan. 300 plus on cards.
South Africa has at least two strike bowlers in Rabada and Oli. They will surely take wickets and it will help trundles like Phelu.

 

[ARK Rafay]

Soft fielding from Bhanja/Bhatija

 

[Gullycricket]

SA producing pattas to mimic ENG

 

[castortroy]

Pak are known for not being able to chase and against Oliver and rabada, chasing in excess of 270 virtually impossible for the brittle batting line up

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Shaheen as well.

Shaheen is still learning.

The rest usually gets the ball jacking even on flat tracks. The reason Junaid troubled Bangla in the UAE while Amir, Hasan got smashed into every corner.

 

[Titan24]

Its not even been 15 overs and a lot of posters are saying worst bowling attack, 300 on the cards etc.

Its easy to say things on forum as you know there is a big chance nobody is gonna pick on your wrong predictions most of the times.

 

[Shafi]

S Africa will score around 350 if we don't take any wicket soon.

 

[Pete Rose]

Aur nazreen 38 ***** hafeez aafspin bowling kartein hein. Badqismati sai inhein icc ke wajay se che o aath martaba mushkilon ka saamna karna para hai. Halake Ashwin ko kabhi koi mushqilat nahin pesh hui hain icc se.
Hamare zarai batate hein ke icc ka ‘i’ india k liye hai.
*using extreme yahya hussaini voice*

Agreed. Though Hassan when in rythm can also generate seam movement but most of the times he is trying too much of other things rather than focusing on consistency of line and length with seam position.
