Re: 3rd T20 pak vs Eng UAE

I think Pakistan will win this one. But i've zero hopes from Afridi-eleven. Dont care much anymore honestly.

Re: 3rd T20 pak vs Eng UAE

+1

Re: 3rd T20 pak vs Eng UAE

England won the toss and elected to bat…3rd consecutive toss won by England.. :smiley:

Clean sweep or a consolation game… :smiley: :jhanda:

Re: 3rd T20 pak vs Eng UAE

Aamer Yamin taking first-ball wicket on his debut. Now its something to cheer. But will reserve comments about this bowler as it doesnt prove anything yet.

Re: 3rd T20 pak vs Eng UAE

aand here we go again..

Sohail Tanvir to Vince, no run, **dropped by the bowler in his follow through! Tanvir again, he just got his left hand up in time and it hit the thumb, a forceful back-foot drive from Vince and it would have been a brilliant reflex catch. Not a comedy reel blooper like Tanvir’s drop of Hales in the first match

:rotfl:**

Rizwan, Yamin & Irfan in for Wahab Riaz, Sohaib & Sarfraz…

Re: 3rd T20 pak vs Eng UAE

75/5 in 10 overs . Looks good for Pk batting. Seems not more than 135

Re: 3rd T20 pak vs Eng UAE

anwar ali cannot be in the side on his bowling alone not good enough. need to deliver with the bat often

Re: 3rd T20 pak vs Eng UAE

20 runs extra ho gayee

Re: 3rd T20 pak vs Eng UAE

Pakistan to chase: 155…should be a cookie… :jhanda: :smiley:

Re: 3rd T20 pak vs Eng UAE

Yes, like a chocolate chip cookie, right? :slight_smile:

Now lets see how Pakistan has started..

0.5
Willey to Ahmed Shehzad, OUT, that’s an ugly heave as he comes down the pitch and swings across the line of a length ball. Not the smartest piece of batting
**Ahmed Shehzad b Willey 4 (5b 1x4 0x6) SR: 80.00

0.6

**
Willey to Mohammad Hafeez, 1 run, OUT, would you believe it?! Another run out. Well, of course you would believe it. Willey managed to get the ball straighter, it was nicely driven through. Hafeez wanted the second run but Rafatullah wasn’t convinced and it’s another shambles. And, again, they have to work out who is run out. Comical scenes. Has Hafeez crossed with Rafatullah and the opposite to end to where the stumps were broken? Still waiting (grab a drink, folks). And it’s Hafeez that has to go.

Re: 3rd T20 pak vs Eng UAE

9/2

Hafeez and his bloody run outs. Idiot.

Re: 3rd T20 pak vs Eng UAE

11/3

Can we get to 50. :hmmm:

Re: 3rd T20 pak vs Eng UAE

Absolute humiliation. Lala save us.

Re: 3rd T20 pak vs Eng UAE

it wasn’t the fault of Hafeez…‘run out’ was the result of the “commentator’s curse” [Rameez Raja]! he had predicted only a couple of balls before.

in the mean time uncle Riffat is gone as well.

9 runouts in this tour so far and Hafeez has been a contributor in 5 of those…he should get the ‘MoM’ award for runouts. :cb:

Rashid to Mohammad Rizwan, OUT, lovely catch! Sharp snaffle off his own bowling. The batsman isn't walking off. Wants to see if it has carried. Aiming to work a full delivery into the leg side, gets a leading edge low back to Rashid to his left. The umpires have gone upstairs, the soft signal is out. Rashid goes one handed, does he get the finger underneath it? The more replays we see, in slow-mo, the more the doubt grows. Batsman might survive here. The angle from behind shows the fingers under the ball. Instinct is out, but you never know. No we have it zoomed in. Not sure that helps or adds more doubt. And he's been given! Cricket instinct says that was clean.
Mohammad Rizwan c & b Rashid 24 (23b 4x4 0x6) SR: 104.34

Re: 3rd T20 pak vs Eng UAE

WOW!...just WOW!!!

what a brilliant catch by Adil...simply, unbelievable!

RRR quietly creeping up to 10

Re: 3rd T20 pak vs Eng UAE

90 runs off 53 balls very doable but our batting lineup likes to commit suicide .

Re: 3rd T20 pak vs Eng UAE

Just as I was typing the above:

11.1
Ali to Umar Akmal, OUT, another fantastic catch! Jordan at deep midwicket this time, running to his left. Akmal went for the slog sweep to a ball outside off, it was a skimming shot and Jordan gathered it superbly
Umar Akmal c Jordan b Ali 4 (9b 0x4 0x6) SR: 44.44
