You don't need muscles to strike them big. You just need timing.

People who think you need muscles to strike them big probably have never played cricket in their life.

Yes I have never played cricket, only when I was a kid mostly with tape ball in streets and I couldn't strike them big beyond the boundary despite exhausting myself with effort swinging hard with everything i got.
 
when was last time pakistan scored 300 outside UAE against top 10 nation
 
Haha, tell this to MOS.

Thats when I though I would become a Superman because of the lack of power in my early teens because i couldn't hit a six swinging so blindly and forcefully that i would fall on the ground from the reactionary force.
 
No need to get offended. Just stop regurgitating everything you hear on TV and believing that it's true.

Stop being rude to posters.

Everyone is trying to have a good time and as a Mod he is also looking after this forum.

Clear?
 
Good batting. Rbw has been exemplary. Sri Lanka doesn't have any wicket taker. How will they when they have only 2 specialist bowlers

Pak should have been going at 6 to 6.50 an over for the first 30 overs imo.

The run rate has only now hit 6 with 2 overs left.
 
Rizwan is not really looking to hit sixes. He is more of a placement kinda batsman

well, without being ultra critical (our standard batting shambles) better teams might have closed at 330. I would take a 300...as I think we have the attack the defend it.
 
Pakistan don't have any big hitters down the order. But I would rather have rizwan batting than afridi

I was wondering the same.

They were going so good and since no collapse happened...should they be finishing at 325 as opposed to 300 now?

What happened?

They are not teens :)
 
I can guarantee that with the same platform that Rizwan walked in to, umar akmal would not have lasted more than 10 deliveries.

I'm not stopping him from looking after his forum. This has nothing to do with him being a mod. Stop making it a mod issue when it's not.

If we disagree on a point I have the right to express my opinion regardless of whether the person is a mod or not.
 
I am afraid we did not really finish as strong as we should have. 300 could be chased on this pitch. Looks like a batting paradise.
 
much stronger mentally than Pakistan so called ******** power hitters
 
Rizwan swaggering at the death.

Excellent batting from Pakistan, hopefully our bowlers can do a better job of defending a total compared to last time.
 
Well some much needed impetus.

A bit more solid death batting and Pakistan could have easily had 330+.

Even now they can finish with 320 if the last 2 balls are despatched.
 
Seems as if Malinga saves all his good spells for IPL

316 is not bad at all.

Came back well after it looked like 300 would be the score.

Game on with a slight advantage to Pakistan.
 
315 is a good total. Great work from everyone.

Just need our bowling to do the job now and hope Azhar has learned his lessons
 
Sure we could have got 20-30 more but 316 is still a great total to defend in the subcontinent. If our bowlers can't defend 316 then god help us.
 
Really impressed with Malik and Rizwan!!! Our batting just needs to be polished a bit so we can score 350-375 (400 is not our capability). Bowling need to be fixed
 
A reasonable finish, could have been 12-15 higher had Sarf been not out or lasted longer.

I think, 300 was per for the course; still PAK 'll have bowl well with new ball, however lightning hardly strikes twice. I would have opened with Anwar & Irfan.
