Australia A v Pakistan A, Twenty20, Cairns

Re: Australia A v Pakistan A, Twenty20, Cairns

What a wastage of time it was :). Pakistan did well to score a tie here from a winning position

Re: Australia A v Pakistan A, Twenty20, Cairns

4 wkts in last 7 balls ............................................. choked in the pressure !!

Re: Australia A v Pakistan A, Twenty20, Cairns

but good game..they score almost 7 runs/over in last 10 overs

Re: Australia A v Pakistan A, Twenty20, Cairns

anyone else thinks its the 'mental block' which might have prevented them from winning? beating AUSTRALIA IN AUSTRALIA... i dunno .. but this tie would feel worse than loosing... so close .. yet so far!!
no matter what the reason may be... but Hafeez is surely crying out for attention... 96 runs with just 2 fours and 1 six... with a great strike rate as well!!

Re: Australia A v Pakistan A, Twenty20, Cairns

lol sumhow i knew pak wouldnt win.

Re: Australia A v Pakistan A, Twenty20, Cairns

Pakistan should have won this game. It's the mental toughness that really counts which Pakistan A team lacka at the moment. But a good series nevertheless. But non of these are ready to play in the national side. Not just yet.

Re: Australia A v Pakistan A, Twenty20, Cairns

Hafeez is, they shud call him up for the ODI series, and for the 20/20 match.

Re: Australia A v Pakistan A, Twenty20, Cairns

You ALWAYS know Pakistan wouldn’t win :hoonh:

Re: Australia A v Pakistan A, Twenty20, Cairns

Kudos to Pak A for such a great match, excellent news for players like Hafeez it sgud to c this player back with confidence and delivering such fine performances against the Ozzies. Net, net this sud ring alarm bells in Pak national side cause there is talent which deserves a chance to be selected.

Re: Australia A v Pakistan A, Twenty20, Cairns

Its just about mental toughness as sannaan has mentioned and Aussies are known to pull things back from nowhere. Its just that our lads did not believe in themselves otherwise loosing a game from the position they were in is totally unexplicable.

A required run rate of just over 6 for the last 4-5 overs with 6 wickets in hands was not a big ask, was it? Pakistan still had a couple of balls left to score the winning run, YET they lost 2 more wickets on those :D ... definitely calls for a party from the Aussie side to thank such great ambassadors of ours.

Re: Australia A v Pakistan A, Twenty20, Cairns

Good to see Hafeez fighting in A squad to earn a spot in senior team, unlike Yasir Hameed :hoonh:

Good performance by the A team against Aus A in 20/20 and in this ODI :k:
