What's new

South Africa vs Pakistan | 3rd ODI | Centurion | Jan 25, 2019 | Pakistan Innings Thread

Pakistan batsmen are too selfish when it comes to these reviews. Either that or they are just thick.

He almost immediately reviewed. I thought there was feather. lol How can he review when he went right across. He probably that "umpire's call" so that they could retain the review.
 
Imam needs to accelerate now towards his century.

Hafeez and Malik playing together would mean 270 out of question
 
It's not about hating. I don't understand why you can't get that. Why would I hate Imam? All I'm saying is that at the time he wasn't contributing enough. Now, he's trying to change that.

Every game is different. We can't let someone who won us one game stay in the team for the next 20 games just because he performed well in one.

Arey mere bhai, when you are not timing the ball well what should you do? Slog blindly and get out? Or hang in tight, keep rotating strike and try building a partnership? How hard it is to understand? It's not even cricket just basic common sense!! When things ain't going your way you fight it out till things get better.
 
Need to get 280-300 here atleast with platform we have had set and get a move on with the scoring rates!
 
This Shamsi looks like a half-tracker specialist. He gets something on the surface. But he is absolutely wasting it.
 
Babar shouldn't have taken the review. He must have known he didn't get a bat on it.
 
At that level everyone is hard working don't let anyone tell you anything else.. He may seem to come across as lazy and might not be as dedicated and as hard working as Kohli however he does put in hard work to be where he is..

Could he have put in more hard work? Maybe but that doesn't mean he's not hard working.

Thank you.
 
Folks need to stop whinging about Imam. He's a little limited in strokrplay but the real change you need is Shan in place of fakhar. Imam, Shan and Bobby would be the best Pakistani top 3 in a very long time
 
If we somehow score 270 plus, everybody will forget Imam’s contribution without realizing that establishing a base is the most improved part of the innings.

He is nowhere as good as Babar, but we dont have another Babar and Imam will only improve from here.

This, people acting as if Imam is blocking entry of Anwar and Miandad. His strike rate will come good with experience, currently he is doing an excellent job for a young Pakistani batsman in his first tour of SA.
 
Hafeez vs Steyn.

Guys we are lucky enough to witness this contest of epic proportions. This is what legends are made off. Hafeez vs Steyn. Let's hope our hero can go down as the one who had the last laugh.
 
Imam needs to take responsibility here. Needs to turn that 64(82) into 94(110)
 
Inman is one lucky ####, our good ones (Babar) are usually not the lucky ones 😏😏😏
 
Hafeez is so pathetic, he should just be looking to stay there instead of wafting shots trying to prove he's not Steyn's bunny. Why get drawn into a battle at this stage?
 
Hafeez to Steyn: I gave you a chance, I showed you mercy. What happens now will be your own fault.
