This is just painful to watch, what's the point of this strategy, just take a gamble and go for it. Younis was striking at 58 after facing 50 balls. We already had our start which was when Jamshed fell. After that we should have pushed on. No point letting the RR go higher and higher.
 
U dont want a player that scores runs and scores quickly....

U don't want a player that scores only 30 and bats slowly

Who do u want?

Make up ur mind.

Someone who bats at a SR of 70 and doesn't throw his wicket away and has the ability to score big : )

Unlike useless 40's.

But the one who scores and fast gets out too early... soo many starts by him.. always the 30 and then out.... still i backed him over younis before i will back him over younis again.

:six by misbah... misbah wants the no century record gone.
 
If I say that was what was displayed on Cricinfo, would that make sense now?
I knew that, just I thought it was some sort of joke by cricinfo.

Then I realised it was Abott's first wicket.
 
Another Prediction: Misbah will get his first century in a ODI match where our team will successfully chase 300+ it might be today or might be this series :)
 
124 after 27...............an awful lot of work still to do............
 
Tsotsobe to Misbah-ul-Haq, SIX, tuk, tuk, tuk, and then boom. Misbah doesn't know a station between 0 and 6. The shot of the day. This is no Mickey Mouse ground, and he has sent this length ball way back into the second tier behind long-on

if he can do this then why doesnt he do it regularly....

Exactly one thing to get out its totally another to throw it away... thats why i want haris sohail in the squad...
 
This is rubbish by Misbah. Tuk tuk boom is not going to work, we're facing a total of over 300 run rate over 8.

If you've got your eye in and able to hit boundaries like that, try doing that on a regular basis and take a chance to get that req run rate down or at least stable.
 

Still searching for that someone.

Jamshed looked good today too , but threw it away.

Maybe some new faces.

Umar Akmal can play his useless dashing role of 30 or 40.. but that will never help us chase big targets.

To chase big targets, either he needs to put a price on his wicket, or we should start looking elsewhere : )
 
:four 36 from 39 misbah batting at 95 strike rate... everybody you are watching a once in a decade innings dont miss it.

Who do we try next?
 
Misbah is striking at 38 (41) balls.

I wonder what his critics have to say today ...
 
If MIsbah is striking @ 95................then Afridi must do it @ 370
 
Jamshed looked good today too , but threw it away.

To be fair that was edge and not some monkey shot and rarely i saw him do that except in that test match second innings.
 
183 from 131 and the difference at the same stage is only 23 runs.....its not that far off but we need our powerhitters afridi and kammy to click.....should have had umar akmal in the team

You wont find 5 better faces than Umar even in next 5 years...:)
 
The problem with Misbah's innings is, he's been scoring at 90 or more but its been like 8 dot balls and then 2 boundaries. It builds up the RRR.
 
Misbah is striking at 38 (41) balls.

I wonder what his critics have to say today ...

they have to say " where was this strike rate during the last match with india"???? :p :p

182 required in 126 ... this match has turned into a T20
 
he was struggling facing his pace in this over!

old fella with weak reflexes :facepalm:
 
Let's see.

Honestly I would have given U. Akmal a go in 5 matches to shatter your myth that he is the answer to our batting problems. : )

He may or may not be the answer....

But he's the most deserving of a shot...


Which new faces?

182 required in 126 ... this match has turned into a T20

A T20 with 5 batsmen back to dressing room.
 
What a joke of a batting line up this is,


mistake was made at the toss by bowling first,

now all sa medium pacer are looking like steyn etc

The problem is the 5 wickets down, your top 5. And Malik is at the crease, who has not had a fast scoring big innings in years....

Afridi needs to go bonkers
 
Here comes the MIGHTY AKMAL....................glue to your TV Screens
 
today might be the day... when the ultimate fastest century record will be broken yet again :afridi
 
Afridi should pad up........as its come n go now........same for GUlly
 
No game was over when they crossed 200...... do you think if we were in a similiar situation we could have chased down even 220.

Game was over when misbah put S.A. into bat...

Our bowling doesnt have ability to dismiss S.A. unless we get a rank turner and our batting can't chase anything in excess of 200, knowing all these facts how can misbah bowl first
