West Indies v Pakistan l 3rd ODI | Gros Islet | 19/7/13 l PAK Innings

[Aman]

I have an eye for there things

If I were you I would be worried about how Dhawan and co are going to handle Steyn.

 

[saeedhk]

This pathetic old man needs to be kicked on the face.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Danger Man Sammy finishes his spell.....

 

[OmaIR1]

... Yeah but it's Misbah. Nevermind that his strike rate is 74, nevermind that Hafeez strikes at 69 despite being an opener, nevermind that Hafeez was going at 40 without hitting a boundary... never mind that Misbah was rotating the strike and hitting the odd boundary...

yes, rotating the SR and hitting the odd boundary... that's why his SR is 58... makes sense.. if that's called rotating the SR we are in big trouble.

 

[Justcrazy]

Absolutely no improvement in pakistan top order , even after repeated failures still finds a place

 

[Red Devil]

Harris plays the ball very late which is a good sign

 

[Sledger]

Phil Hughes like style.

 

[saiyan0312]

how did sammy get 40 dot balls.

 

[saeedhk]

dot..

 

[Asif321]

enough of hafeez now , harris looks good btw

 

[Justcrazy]

needs to fire today here. Also ;wahab needs to slog a few here.

 

[Varun]

Come on Pakistan, 98 after 30 overs is a disgrace. Step it up NOW.

 

[KB-24]

98/3 in 30 ... test match in full flow in fact that's too fast for even test cricket by our standards!

 

[MohsanAslam]

Do do do do do

 

[Justcrazy]

Sohail should be asked to bat without pressure, he should be given 4 - 5 innings .

 

[Red Devil]

100 up

 

[talha3]

100 up! That was quick.

 

[saiyan0312]

100/3 in 30.1 overs.... our start and even if wickets fell was not that slow.

 

[saeedhk]

Misbah is the worst batsman to average 40+·

 

[Sam18696]

Maaan Haris is also playing slow.

100 for Pakistan

 

[Xoib]

Phil Hughes like style.

nah don't think so though not very pleasing on the eye.

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

where's the crowd lol

 

[imshally81]

Should be wide

 

[Sherazkhalid]

248 is par score, can we get even 200.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan batting has hit its lowest point here.

 

[Aman]

Umar has to come in at 3/4

 

[OmaIR1]

Come on Pakistan, 98 after 30 overs is a disgrace. Step it up NOW.

disgrace is an understatement... you can only imagine the pain Pakistan cricket fans are going through having to watch such toothless batting by Misbah and co.


We envy Indian batting.

 

[MohsanAslam]

Misbah leading run scorer in 2013

 

[Red Devil]

Misbah leading run scorer in 2013

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need to really go after bowling here ....... 150 required in last 20

 

[saeedhk]

1.

 

[Kianig89]

Painful viewing this.......a Sunday League game would be more entertainting and eye cating

 

[saiyan0312]

misbah 42... harris chill and play.

 

[Iqbal6]

Umar has to come in at 3/4

Agree..Umar #3 and Sohail #4...Misbah down the order..wasting so many deliveries

 

[Sam18696]

Go sohail. Score you're first boundary

 

[asronline]

Bravo trying to get some more out of the short ball.

 

[saeedhk]

Misbah always scores useless 50s.

 

[saiyan0312]

Mazher Arshad: "Today it is Mohammad Hafeez's 125th consecutive international for Pakistan. He has not missed any since making comeback in September 2010."

Man we ave him alot of chances.

 

[Varun]

How come there's no Indian batsman on that list?

 

[Justcrazy]

Today it is Mohammad Hafeez's 125th consecutive international for Pakistan. He has not missed any since making comeback in September 2010."

 

[amax]

Misbah-ul-Haq ( 646 runs) now has most ODI runs in 2013. Next two are: Ian Bell (645) and Joe Root (590).

 

[ValleyRanch]

Is Harris sohail a christian playing for pakistan?

 

[KB-24]

we have managed 101/3 in 31, don't know how you can expect to magically rack it up to 250+ from here ... Pressure on Umar and Lala to do something out of the ordinary. Absolutely woeful batting from the top order.

 

[saiyan0312]

so we need atleast 50 runs in the powerplay.

 

[parwezzkhan]

Misbah sir pls increase ur strike rate make it at least up to 70

 

[saeedhk]

I want to kick Misbah in the face.

 

[Sledger]

Good running.

 

[leatherface58]

Chucker to Tucker

 

[saiyan0312]

Quick runner and was aggressively going for second.

 

[Red Devil]

Well taken 2

 

[imshally81]

Good running

 

[saeedhk]

2…

 

[godzilla]

omg this is SO PAINFUL to watch.

 

[Red Devil]

SR of 3

 

[Indiafan]

If I were you I would be worried about how Dhawan and co are going to handle Steyn.

If it was like last time, am sure they would handle very well

 

[OmaIR1]

I want to kick Misbah in the face.

lol... I wouldn't do that but hope he gets out ASAP so the pain can stop..

I'm starting to see why Misbah's average is so high and he has so many runs, if you play like Mark Richardson, that too in ODIs, then you're bound to score runs at a painfully slow pace...

 

[yadunoe]

ok if misbah wanna do it bring back razzaq we need is clean hitting for this tuk tuk policy of misbah

 

[saeedhk]

104/3.

 

[imranq]

Guys narine still has 6 more overs to go

 

[KB-24]

Logic dictates that Misbah takes up the mantle to accelerate but then again, it doesn't apply to our captain.

 

[WebGuru]

4 runs in 2 overs of Legend Samuels

 

[lestaboy]

Sohail looks decent to me very decent

 

[Red Devil]

Projected score 162

 

[saiyan0312]

par score is 240 and we have to go at 8 per over from here to get that.

 

[coca-cola]

yes, rotating the SR and hitting the odd boundary... that's why his SR is 58... makes sense.. if that's called rotating the SR we are in big trouble.

Compared to the strike rate of 40 with no boundaries which you somehow preferred, yes it is.

 

[MohsanAslam]

Afridi, umar will brainfart today, like usual !

 

[ValleyRanch]

hold your horses ..those who complain about the low strike rate. 8 per over with akmal and afridi to come will easily take them there..even more than 250.. mark my words

 

[OmaIR1]

Sensible comments from another Indian:

Kapil: "Same old story for Pakistan. Misbah tuk tuks all the innings and puts pressure on like of Umar and Afridi, who either end up taking Pakistan to 220 or get all out around 180. When was the last time Pak scored 270+?"

EXACTLY my thoughts and I'm sure a lot of others' here.

 

[saeedhk]

only 6 fours.

 

[idly sambar]

If I were you I would be worried about how Dhawan and co are going to handle Steyn.

Lol at this NZ fan. Dhawan and co have showed that they are good batsmen. They will do well in SA as well like they did in Eng and WI. Steyn may have to worry about how to bowl to batsmen like Dhawan, Kohli, Rohit,etc.,

Here the thread is about Pakistan and their match against Windies. Dont have to bring in Indian batsmen here.

 

[imshally81]

Another short ball

 

[lestaboy]

Negative bowling bravo

 

[Sam18696]

Goo sohail.

 

[Justcrazy]

why cannot Pakistan rotate the strike and get 4 - 5 singles without risks?

 

[Red Devil]

Extra bounce

 

[saiyan0312]

woah what a bounce.

 

[Sledger]

That was a street level shot. Bat going to leg.

 

[lestaboy]

Max 220

 

[OmaIR1]

Compared to the strike rate of 40 with no boundaries which you somehow preferred, yes it is.

you have low standards. and are probably content with what you see...


for me neither is acceptable.. Misbah's SR at 57% now, you must be loving how he rotates the SR. Shameful stuff.

 

[Aman]

Umar is well wasted at 6..
