Hasan and Shaheen miscommunication caused a ball to go for 6

Multiple fumbles by Haris, one misfield went for 4
 
Haris is very poor in the field. He really needs to improve as fielding is vital and can decide games.
 
Some pretty ordinary fielding today.

Basic errors, laziness and some of the boys looking like they've had a few too many plates of biryani.
 
Haris's fielding will cost us some important match. Remember another "Jonty" Rahat Ali and his dropped catch of Wahab against Australia in 2015 WC.
 
For the record, Sarfaraz took a superb catch off the bowling of Imad.
 
Seem to start well but then cant sustain it, some concentration issues it aeems
 
The way haris was diving(or trying to dive) tells you why he always reinjured his knee often! Reminds me how abdul razaq used to dive + he doesn't sprint but jogs .
Needs to learn how to dive correctly and swiftly
 
All of you guys are astute followers of the game and great observers . .

Have you noticed the kinds of fielders who are on long on and long off in LOI cricket for other teams? Yes, you're right! They're the best fielders who patrol those boundaries . .

For Pakistan, we had Hasan and Shaheen! Like seriously!!!

As Saj mentioned . . Basics!
 
For the record, Sarfaraz took a superb catch off the bowling of Imad.

Big test for Pakistan fielding on this ground as per Mike Atherton
 
Imad Wasim messes up a run out chance! These chances will not come frequently.
 
Brilliance by Fakhar Zaman - well done! Need more bits of field work like that to inspire the side.

Incredible.
 
And now Asif Ali - picks up the ball and then lets it go for 4!
 
I remember not very long ago we were called the number one fielding side in the world. Wonder how that ever happened. poor today
 
Simple drop now by Imad Wasim.

Waqar Younis "if you can't catch those, there is something wrong with you"
 
Babar Azam drops a dolly now.

Simple chance, off balance and drops it.
 
Its been a pretty terrible catching display in the field by pakistan Dropping fairly simple chances We ll never know but this game couldve been very different if they had been held onto

Yes its tough out there with the flat pitches hence why its doubly important to take every chance and even half chances

Amazing skill or complete accident?

That’s the question dividing the cricket world after Ben Stokes was run-out in freak fashion in England’s ODI clash with Pakistan.

Stokes was at the non-striker’s end late in the match when Moeen Ali smashed a Shaheen Afridi delivery straight back down the pitch.

The ball cannoned off Afridi’s foot and straight onto the stumps, leaving Stokes out of his ground and run-out.

Stokes appeared to give Afridi a thumbs up as he departed, suggesting the bowler had purposely stuck his boot out to affect the run-out.

But not everyone was as convinced, with many believing it was just a freakish accident.

Horrible fielding . . it's the worst fielding display in a while for Pakistan . . just overall in the field it has been really bad! and in the world cup, we will get these moments with these pitches . . we need to pick it up! Can't let chances go
 
Its PCB's fault squarely. Didn't pay a top-performing fielding coach on time, and he went away distressed. Height of incompetence. If anything, they should have offered him a tweeked contract with more compensation for his exceptional work on our fielding.

Mickey too had high praises for Steve Rixon and the ways he'd set fielding routines for individual players, and how he'd prescribe a certain punishment for each mishap during a live game.

Clearly the replacement has failed to replicate Rixon's standard.
 
Shaheen's drop yesterday was pathetic. The other drops wouldn't have made a huge difference tbh but it could have been a different game had Shaheen held on to Roy

Needed to do better here.
 
Another drop by Junaid, who's been awful today in all facets.

This really annoyed me. Could not just ONE out of the eleven players have appealed? Pathetic
