South Africa vs Pakistan | 2nd ODI | Durban | Jan 22, 2019 | Pakistan innings Thread

[Syed1]

Malik looking baqwas atm..

 

[NauV]

I have said it for a long time. The biggest problem with the Pakistan team is not the skills . . its the simple fact taht they either don't have brains or don't like to use them while batting!

 

[DRsohail]

Lolz.

 

[Ahmed216]

Well played Shadab, no.6 is right spot for him in this order

 

[babajee]

You're not AB

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Is the captain going to show up or he will throw in a debutant ahead of him?

 

[Green Patriot]

Shamsi the Philospher gets the Legend.

 

[Pete Rose]

Ok now Tabrez is a certain place in Iran according to Ramiz.

He is right

 

[QalandarFan]

Man Shadab should of let Malik take the spinners on.

 

[Markhor]

Talat and Sarfraz need to drag us to 220.

 

[Fineline]

Is the captain going to show up or he will throw in a debutant ahead of him?

Not yet!

 

[Naim]

Ok now Tabrez is a certain place in Iran according to Ramiz.

He is right tabrez in city in iran

 

[Green Patriot]

Is 150 on??

 

[Gabbar Singh]

Oh man why play that shot?

 

[Syed1]

Ghatiya shot

 

[Ahmed216]

he is right !!

Ok thanks. Thts wat i wanted to know

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Talat in

 

[Green Patriot]

Is the captain going to show up or he will throw in a debutant ahead of him?

The debutant it is.

 

[Syed1]

Alot of batting still to come, Talat, Sarfaraz, Fahim and Hasan. Hope we get to 230.

 

[DRsohail]

Ok now Tabrez is a certain place in Iran according to Ramiz.

Lolz it means a challenging one i reckon.

 

[Something]

What the hell is Sarfraz doing?

 

[Abdullah719]

Ghatiya shot

Why does this always happen after Ramiz comes to the commentary box

 

[Titan24]

There was no need for this from Shadab, management should have revised the target during the drinks

 

[Green Patriot]

Every wicket has been a brainless shot.

 

[Markhor]

Its not just about the pace its about having consistency in pace and bounce. Wickets in Eng are one of the best going arounds and that is why we have seen a lot of big scores recently.

Cardiff and Lord's are more two paced wickets though. Point is batsmen need to assess conditions and plan accordingly - we are terrible at working out what a par score should be on a surface. We just don't bat with any plan or intelligence.

 

[Ahmed216]

Sarfraz has finally realised he shoudnt be batting above no.8

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

We will not play full quota.

 

[QalandarFan]

Man now Malik will have to wait before hitting the spinner...

 

[Markhor]

Hussain Talat is a decent strike rotstor but not a big boundary hitter.

ODIs is his most suited format, not T20s where he debuted.

 

[Fineline]

Alot of batting still to come, Talat, Sarfaraz, Fahim and Hasan. Hope we get to 230.

Not even a single trustworthy batsman in the list!

 

[rollingstoned]

Why is sarfaraz hiding down the order ?

 

[Syed1]

Can somebody shut up Ramiz the clown

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Why does this always happen after Ramiz comes to the commentary box

Is he a panauti for Pakistan?

 

[Titan24]

Cardiff and Lord's are more two paced wickets though. Point is batsmen need to assess conditions and plan accordingly - we are terrible at working out what a par score should be on a surface. We just don't bat with any plan or intelligence.

I am pretty sure the high scores which we have seen were not on the two paced wickets. I agree batsmen should adjust better.

 

[Syed1]

Why is sarfaraz hiding down the order ?

Maybe because Talat is a leftie and a left arm spinner is bowling?

 

[Titan24]

Talat can secure a world cup spot for him today

 

[Adnan_Ilyas]

Captian hiding away until he HAS to come out

 

[Pakhs]

Shadab didnt need to take that risk yet.

 

[Mamoon]

Shadab is a number 9 and Faheem is a number 10.

 

[Markhor]

This is so stupid from Pakistan. Despite losing Imam early, all we needed is to see out that first PowerPlay and we were doing okay at 4 RPO on this tricky surface.

Fakhar and Babar were doing okay until Babar threw his wicket away. Since then it's been all South Africa.

 

[Rana]

First time im watching this guy Talat play in HD.

 

[Invincible Gujjar]

Kagiso pick up a 5fer today.

 

[The cricket enthusiast]

Shadab is a number 9 and Faheem is a number 10.

he can play fast
but spin big time no

 

[Rana]

We need 230, we will win InshaAllah

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Cardiff and Lord's are more two paced wickets though. Point is batsmen need to assess conditions and plan accordingly - we are terrible at working out what a par score should be on a surface. We just don't bat with any plan or intelligence.

For that you need to have a fully functioning brain and I am sure you must have heard in your PM's first speech in power when he spoke about that.

 

[QalandarFan]

Shadab is a number 9 and Faheem is a number 10.

Dunno about others but atleast Sarfraz has finally realized he is a #11

 

[Syed1]

This pitch is Saffers reaction to last match.... hopefully it hurts them when we bowl.

 

[The cricket enthusiast]

First time im watching this guy Talat play in HD.

he is batting too low
at best he can score 30 odd runs

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

Talat can secure a world cup spot for him today

He is not that good. He is just another hack like many others.

 

[DRsohail]

Shadab is a number 9 and Faheem is a number 10.

AT 8 or max at 7.

 

[Abdullah719]

Holding seem to be in the commentary box, but his mic doesn't appear to be working.

 

[Green Patriot]

Maiden.

 

[The cricket enthusiast]

This pitch is Saffers reaction to last match.... hopefully it hurts them when we bowl.

Pak is totally unprepared here
they should've known better its their home they will come as hard as they can

 

[Titan24]

These two need to go atleast till 37-40 th over irrespective of the RR

 

[Rana]

Shadab is a number 9 and Faheem is a number 10.

Name worthy 1-8s if you think you know what number these 2 youngsters should be at?!

 

[The cricket enthusiast]

malik looking tailender against shamsi
will be stumped i guess

 

[QalandarFan]

RR is horrible need to go after Shamsi.

 

[Syed1]

Pak is totally unprepared here
they should've known better its their home they will come as hard as they can

Are you even watching? One bowl is bouncing head high from good length, the other is going below knee from same length. It's a difficult pitch. 230 is winning score.

 

[dragon751]

malik not reading the leggie

 

[DRsohail]

What is Malik doing.

 

[Titan24]

He is not that good. He is just another hack like many others.

Irrespective of how good or bad he is, perfomance when needed never goes un noticed.

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

In the air for long time but malik didnt find even 4.

 

[QalandarFan]

Malik sahab thora sa zhor be laga lo shot mein.

 

[Titan24]

RR is horrible need to go after Shamsi.

Listened to you

 

[The cricket enthusiast]

Are you even watching? One bowl is bouncing head high from good length, the other is going below knee from same length. It's a difficult pitch. 230 is winning score.

they shouldve waited for first 10 overs atleast
rather than trying to hook which you are not good at clearly

 

[Rana]

6 rpo from here is 245, Pak can do it they still have a couple of guys who can hold a partnership out there

 

[NauV]

RR is horrible need to go after Shamsi.

Forget RR . . Question is can they play 50 overs? . . lol

 

[Green Patriot]

Should have had 2 spinners here.

 

[QalandarFan]

Listened to you

Didn’t result in anything though.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

If Paterson and Shamsi play the remaining matches, atleast they will end up lowering their career averages to a bit more respectable one.

 

[The cricket enthusiast]

is talat totally clueless ?
or playing for his place?

 

[Syed1]

230-240 is winning score on this pathetic pitch.

 

[Rana]

Not bad Talat just hang in there buddy!

 

[DRsohail]

Should have had 2 spinners here.

But not Imad wasim he is not a spinner.

 

[Fineline]

is talat totally clueless ?
or playing for his place?

Both!

 

[QalandarFan]

Forget RR . . Question is can they play 50 overs? . . lol

They will and I’m still expecting them to get 535 here. RRR is about 18 odd

 

[The cricket enthusiast]

230-240 is winning score on this pathetic pitch.

agreed with you totally about the pitch.

 

[DRsohail]

is talat totally clueless ?
or playing for his place?

should be playing for his place if Malik is doing the same.

 

[Titan24]

Though he is under pressure but Talat has looked good so far technically

 

[DRsohail]

Sarfarz being discussed.
