wouldn't mind Kamran at 6, try him there and give him licence to hit, if he gets out early, drop him forever

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Hope Fakhar scores a blistering 50 and gets us the start we need.

the kind of pitches WI have prepared, don't think we'll see even 1 fifty in the whole series

 

[Citizen4]

Kieron Pollard have not crossed the score of 26 since july 2013 in international t20s

 

[Citizen4]

Simmons have only 21 runs in his last 5 t20is

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Kieron Pollard have not crossed the score of 26 since july 2013 in international t20s

Pollard is a joke of a cricketer. He's been milking IPL trundler bashing for years now.

 

[Arsalan Pro]

Kieron Pollard have not crossed the score of 26 since july 2013 in international t20s

Hope he doesn't beat that in the remaining 2 matches.

 

[Citizen4]

same pitch as tomorrow, we'll see another low scoring game today. yawn

 

[Citizen4]

UAE have better pitches than this pathetic pitch of Trini

 

[Citizen4]

Hope he doesn't beat that in the remaining 2 matches.

pitches are awful, he won't even make 26 in 2 innings combined

Good for him as he used to be a useful tailender before and now performs once in a blue moon,also his bowling is not reliable enough to earn him a automatic place.

I think he will do better than Kamran if he opens today

 

[Citizen4]

I just hope they play the next match on the other pitch, this one is awful

 

[Citizen4]

basically playing a t20 on a 3rd day test match pitch tomorrow it will be a 4th day dust bowl pitch

Wasn't The Unreliable one the match winner besides Shaddy .....
He performs in a blue moon but have noticed that he always performs with the Bat when the top order takes a Sky-Dive

 

[Arsalan Pro]

Pak won the toss and chose to bat.

 

[Arsalan Pro]

same team for Pakistan.

 

[Sadevdesai]

V bat.

 

[Arsalan Pro]

One change for West Indies
Jason Mohammed in and Rovman Powell out.

 

[wasimjunior]

I dont understand what you have to gain from batting on this

 

[Hamza_]

Why don't they play Rumman instead of Tanvir.

 

[AhsanAK]

basically playing a t20 on a 3rd day test match pitch tomorrow it will be a 4th day dust bowl pitch

Seems Like Shaddy may go for a record; Most wickets in Series.....
Currently held by Ahsan Malik of NL with figures of 11 For 77
WC include Ajantha Mendis of SL with figures 15 for 147

 

[Arsalan Pro]

Denying a chance to collapse in the chase.

[Shafi]

Hopefully Kamran will get another duck and may be genius Inzi will drop him from ODI forever.

 

[Rayyman]

Why don't they play Rumman instead of Tanvir.

Or even Usman Warrior.

Should've had Nawaz over Kami as well.

 

[Shafi]

So we are basically starting ODI with there failure players. Why didn't they announce squad after 3 T20?

 

[ImmzLB]

Should have played Raees or Usman Khan at least. Ideally both of them.

 

[Arsalan Pro]

Rumman Raees deserved a chance today.

 

[Rayyman]

Hopefully Pakistan puts 200+ today. Want a good score from each of Shezzy, Babar, Malik, Sarfraz and Imad. Want Kami and Sobers to fail.

200 kahan se agya? 130 krlain bari baat hogi is ghatya pitch pe

 

[Abdul]

[MENTION=137148]Rayyman[/MENTION] do you have Kamran Akmal in your fantasy XI? I was considering taking him out but don't know if it's one of his days.

 

[Ellipsism]

Expecting a Kami special today

Shehzad to fail like he always does

 

[Watsupdoc]

Shehzad )

I'll be surprised to see him play in the next game.

 

[Ellipsism]

Called it!

This guy is trash

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

Imad ?

Well at least we are improvising

 

[Watsupdoc]

Imad Wasim at 3? If they wanted a lefty should have sent in Fakhar.

 

[pakistani pride]

What a shame. I mean really?
When will rumman raees get a chance?!?!?!

Also the other pacer shinwari deserves a go.

They keep going with TTS failures. This is hard to accept.

 

[ExplicitAI]

really?

 

[Abdul]

Shehzad. ) ) )

 

[Asif321]

oh god what a uselesss played shahzad , 3 failures

 

[Yatoo]

TTF

 

[Shafi]

Shehzad is so rubbish along with Kami and Hafeez and all 2 will sadly play ODIs

 

[fasihulhaq94]

imad at 3 hmmm lets see what happens

 

[Da_Future_Knick]

Imad promoted, great great move

 

[t_kaay]

Shazad showing his IQ

 

[ExplicitAI]

I think Sarfraz needs Imad to develop his batting, reminds me of Yuvraj at the crease.

 

[Watsupdoc]

Imad experiment fails as well )

 

[Ellipsism]

Imad Wasim?

 

[Rayyman]

[MENTION=137148]Rayyman[/MENTION] do you have Kamran Akmal in your fantasy XI? I was considering taking him out but don't know if it's one of his days.

Nope.

Took him out for Lendl Simmons.

 

[t_kaay]

Out

 

[Citizen4]

shehzad you stupid fool
aram se khel leta chauka marne k baad yaar

 

[yasir]

Good to see pinch hitter, I am liking out of box thinking of Sarfi

 

[ExplicitAI]

This Badree guy should be playing Tests and ODI's, what's wrong with WICB??

 

[zacattakk]

Rather than sending Imad, wouldnt this have been the ideal opportunity to send Fakhar?

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

Lol imad is out


I know hindsight is great , but fahkar is was a more logical pick

 

[fasihulhaq94]

thats out! damn
wanted to see how imad batted

 

[Logical]

Imad out

 

[Da_Future_Knick]

No man, jinxed myself

 

[Pakpak]

poor poor dismissal.

 

[Watsupdoc]

I wonder what the think tank was 'thinking'.

 

[Ellipsism]

Foots in the air, out!

 

[ExplicitAI]

Top order has flopped again, Kamran to fall next.

 

[Rayyman]

Yes!

Badree is on my team.

Not sure why they sent in Imad tho. He's not a specialist bat. Damn he's in my fantasy team too.

 

[Yatoo]

RUbbishbatting .

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

I wonder what the think tank was 'thinking'.

Left hand right hand combo I presume

Either way it was crazy, if they wanted a left hander should have sent zaman

 

[Dios]

 

[Rayyman]

Why is Fakhar batting so low?

 

[Ellipsism]

Was always trash batsman.

Anyone thinking this guy is capable than playing more than a couple of cross-batted hoicks doesn't know anything about batting.

 

[Citizen4]

yaar ye kia hai yaar?!
Wahab ko bhejo ab

 

[Ellipsism]

Am I the only one sensing a Kami special today?

 

[t_kaay]

Only Pakistan can start a match with a stonking boundary and still be 2 down at the end of the 1st over

 

[fasihulhaq94]

Am I the only one sensing a Kami special today?

sensing a kami special yet dare we think imad as a bat

 

[t_kaay]

Am I the only one sensing a Kami special today?

If he's still there at the end of the over then I'm with you.....but he's looking iffy

 

[Yatoo]

Trash pitch
