They have got some turn not bad

Saim Waugh

 

[Omer2002]

Actually he could have done better. 2nd was a poor over

 

[BouncerGuy]

Agha strikes... 2 down zimbabwe

 

[shah_1]

[Omer2002]

[Omer2002]

Looks hideous

Zimbabwe and Pakistan teams are wearing orange caps to support children affected by cancer in Zimbabwe.

Here comes the man of the series for Australia ODI series. HARIS

 

[mominsaigol]

Here comes the man of the series for Australia ODI series. HARIS

No bounce. Won't be as effective

 

[BouncerGuy]

There is no DRS but that looks out

 

[mominsaigol]

Theirs no drs? What?

There is no DRS but that looks out

 

[AAli98]

Mohsin Naqli truly a traitor of Pak.. Baba losing precious icc odi ranking points by dropping him!!

 

[BouncerGuy]

Theirs no drs? What?

Yep.

 

[gazza619]

I miss the golden brief era where M Amir, M Asif & Shabbir Ahmed would open with the new ball and the opposition will be restricted to less than 2 runs an over.

Them days every Tom Dick & Harry slogs our average pace attack.

 

[mominsaigol]

Yep.

Boring series

 

[Ahmed216]

Sajid Khan deserved a go in ODI's. He's been great on slow turners like these.
Can bat as well.

We've still not learnt. No specialist experienced spinners in the squad ahead of champions trophy

 

[BouncerGuy]

haris strikes and Zimbabwe lost Ervive.

3/67 now

 

[G0rmintAunty]

And I thought Rizwan's appealing weas excessive when there was DRS available.

 

[Omer2002]

Good comeback this

Haris has improved which is good as he was a spray gun

 

[BouncerGuy]

This is what can happen when part-timers are bowling. freebies every over.

 

[Omer2002]

Back to good old haris short and williams looks in the mood

 

[Speedster1]

Good comeback this

Haris has improved which is good as he was a spray gun

Few boundaries to finish the over

 

[BouncerGuy]

DRS should have been there.

[BouncerGuy]

What a pathetic shot after drinks. Agha strikes. 4 down now for 83 runs.

COME ON PAKISTAN

This will be one heck of a boring series

 

[RidiculousMan]

DRS should have been there.

https://twitter.com/x/status/1860604296406151341

Without DRS how can this be counted as an International match? ICC should strip this game's status

 

[BouncerGuy]

LOL at the umpiring. How is that high???

 

[RidiculousMan]

What pathetic XI is this. They are going with an extra batter even against Zimbabwe?

 

[BouncerGuy]

Good bowling from Haris

No info on that

 

[BouncerGuy]

Agha gets another one. Big fish SEAN is gone. 5 down

 

[Omer2002]

Perfect time for faisal.to come

 

[G0rmintAunty]

What pathetic XI is this. They are going with an extra batter even against Zimbabwe?

Our bowling is settled apart from a spin bowler but we got many options, main thing is settling the batting order

 

[G0rmintAunty]

Same old defensive formula of bowling first. Should've batted first and given the guys as much time as possible to set up a big total. If they skittle out Zim for a low total, the top order could just tuk tuk their way to a win.

Like I said, Zimb are going to be skittled out for a low total and we tuk tuk the chase, playing extra batters is to test them, batting first should be the only way to go

 

[Omer2002]

Why wasnt jahandad selected for this.series if shaheen wasnt playing

 

[Omer2002]

Hasnain and jamal are average

 

[RidiculousMan]

Our bowling is settled apart from a spin bowler but we got many options, main thing is settling the batting order

You're only unsettling by playing an extra batter.

You need at least full 5 bowling options in One Day and at least 6 competent batters against big teams

 

[RidiculousMan]

Hasnain and jamal are average

Jamal is okay for Test bowling but has a lot of work to do in limited overs.

Hasnain unfortunately doesn't look Hasnain 2.0

 

[Omer2002]

Good first over from faisal sikandar wasnt reading him

 

[BouncerGuy]

Why wasnt jahandad selected for this.series if shaheen wasnt playing

Yeah he should been there.

 

[G0rmintAunty]

You're only unsettling by playing an extra batter.

You need at least full 5 bowling options in One Day and at least 6 competent batters against big teams

Yes but like I said our bowling is settled and main bowlers rested, they will not play this bowling line up against bigger teams, main goal is to sort out the batting and that will only happen if we bat first. But the more things change, the more they remain the same

 

[followed]

Hasnain is so average and now he has lost pace as well.

 

[Kianig89]

Spinners being effective here or rather lack of ability to play

 

[G0rmintAunty]

Yeah he should been there.

He has been rested in the ODI series for the T20 series

 

[Omer2002]

This Bennett guy looks class

 

[BouncerGuy]

This Bennett guy looks class

You jinxed him.

Aamer got him

6 down

 

[Omer2002]

You jinxed him.

Aamer got him

6 down

Oh dear

 

[Kianig89]

Rizwan has captained well

 

[BouncerGuy]

Rizwan has captained well

No No. People will say Zimbabwe is a minnow team so nothing to be praised here for riz

 

[BouncerGuy]

Faisal gets his first wicket in ODIs.... Brilliant stuff from him earned him a wicket

 

[RidiculousMan]

Suviyan seem to be the more clever left arm wrist spinner

 

[Omer2002]

Faisal gets his first wicket in ODIs.... Brilliant stuff from him earned him a wicket

Great stuff hope he carrys on

 

[Omer2002]

Suviyan seem to be the more clever left arm wrist spinner

Both are good sufiyan looked quicker..i think faisal could be good in tests

 

[BouncerGuy]

Suviyan seem to be the more clever left arm wrist spinner

he looked more mature and clever yes. Faisal should be invested in as well. He is good

 

[Kianig89]

Rizwan initially a Misbah prodigy but as captain he is antidote of Misbah ideology

 

[Kianig89]

So Faisal is Chinaman??? Long time Pakistan had this bowler

 

[Omer2002]

So Faisal is Chinaman??? Long time Pakistan had this bowler

Both faisal and sufiyan are chinamen

 

[BouncerGuy]

So Faisal is Chinaman??? Long time Pakistan had this bowler

yep first one

 

[RidiculousMan]

he looked more mature and clever yes. Faisal should be invested in as well. He is good

Sufviyan was troubling the likes of Maxwell. He even bowled well against India with likes of Tilak Verma in the emerging Asia Cup.

Just different temperaments from both the spinners I guess

 

[RidiculousMan]

No bat sponsor for Raza? That's surprising

 

[AAli98]

Good to see a ruthless captain. Won’t take the game into 49th over in both innings.

 

[Kianig89]

Haters gonna hate, but this system will work now

 

[BouncerGuy]

Come in. Get them out under 150-160

 

[Omer2002]

Jamal is pretty poor surely we have better so called bowling allrounder

 

[BouncerGuy]

How well is Faisal bowling. Superb

 

[Kianig89]

Rauf should be bought back to finish them

 

[Omer2002]

How well is Faisal bowling. Superb

No doubt

 

[Dantheone]

I miss the golden brief era where M Amir, M Asif & Shabbir Ahmed would open with the new ball and the opposition will be restricted to less than 2 runs an over.

Them days every Tom Dick & Harry slogs our average pace attack.

They would too get slogged today. The game has changed.

 

[RidiculousMan]

Jamal is pretty poor surely we have better so called bowling allrounder

Faheem or Aamer Yamin. Choose your pick

 

[Dantheone]

Good to see a ruthless captain. Won’t take the game into 49th over in both innings.

Still I see a lot of hate by people here who think they have better game understanding.

 

[Kianig89]

Hopefully Saim will score at brisk pace to make things in a hurry

 

[Omer2002]

Faheem or Aamer Yamin. Choose your pick

We have tried both already need somebody new i saw some batting potential in daniyal maybe give him a try

 

[Kianig89]

143/7

 

[Markhor]

Why wasnt jahandad selected for this.series if shaheen wasnt playing

There's a few discrepancies in the squad.

Arafat Minhas was selected for AUS ODIs but not ZIM ODIs. Faisal Akram made both squads but performed worse than Minhas in Champions Cup (averaging 70 at 7.36 RPO) - although possesses a good List A record and is bowling well here.

And as you said Jahandad misses out despite being one of the lead performers in the Champions Cup.

There could've been more consistency in selection across these white ball tours.

 

[Dantheone]

Rizwan has captained well

He's also keeping brilliantly barring that one drop against Aus. Today's catch off the sweep shows how smart he is.
