Ireland v Pakistan Adelaide Oval, 15 March 2015

Re: Ireland v Pakistan Adelaide Oval, 15 March 2015

I think it was only 1 dropped catch which was not costly, otherwise if catches were taken wickets would have tumbled faster

Re: Ireland v Pakistan Adelaide Oval, 15 March 2015

Ireland scored 83/6 in the last 16 overs

Re: Ireland v Pakistan Adelaide Oval, 15 March 2015

i was thinking the exact same lol....now i pray Allah that our batting keep my trust in them for 240

agar 240 bee nahieen akr saktay on a flat wicket, then i dont know what to say

Re: Ireland v Pakistan Adelaide Oval, 15 March 2015

4 dropped catches:

  • Kevin O'Brien (out next over)
  • Porterfield (dropped on 99) only made 8 more runs
  • don't think the other two made many runs either

Re: Ireland v Pakistan Adelaide Oval, 15 March 2015

mashallah..and this irish batting was no joke...

i will again give credit to that man waqar for turning around this bowling outfit...he must be working hard with these boys..., slow bouncers, no length balls, slow balls, pitching in right zones, no no-balls,

Re: Ireland v Pakistan Adelaide Oval, 15 March 2015

bowled too many wides (10) though

3 to 4 in the whole innings is ok but not 10

Re: Ireland v Pakistan Adelaide Oval, 15 March 2015

some of them were short balls...Pakistanis have come up with a new plan. use short balls effectively on these pitches but sometime they are too short and become wide balls but agree 10 are too many

Re: Ireland v Pakistan Adelaide Oval, 15 March 2015

cricinfo summed it up really well

Sensational death bowling from Pakistan. Ireland were 182 for 4 at one stage, in the 39th over. You would have expected 90-100 runs from there, but Pakistan were quick, they swung the ball, they mixed the slower balls and bouncers well. Just 55 for 6 in the last 11 overs. That is lovely stuff.

Still can't be sure with Pakistan's batting, though, can we?

Re: Ireland v Pakistan Adelaide Oval, 15 March 2015

Saw it twice.

Re: Ireland v Pakistan Adelaide Oval, 15 March 2015

Locked.

Re: Ireland v Pakistan Adelaide Oval, 15 March 2015

yeh, the same waqar, kept Sarfaraz ahmad out, ego problem

Re: Ireland v Pakistan Adelaide Oval, 15 March 2015

bas karo yaar...yes he and misbah made the mistake but lets move on

and all of us have seen enough cricket to know very well that no one knows who will have the last laugh. but for Pakistan sake, allah karay sarfraz wins pakistan all the matches and the WC...and inshallh he will score a century today

Re: Ireland v Pakistan Adelaide Oval, 15 March 2015

Pakistan Rock :jhanda:

Re: Ireland v Pakistan Adelaide Oval, 15 March 2015

Sarfaraz Ahmed, This guy is literally far away from crease… bollar kay aik dam samnay aker khel raha hai. bowler kay hath say gained choti nahi.. aur gaind sarfaraz kay bat par… :cobra:

Re: Ireland v Pakistan Adelaide Oval, 15 March 2015

Shaky Shehzad , don't look comfortable...consuming to many balls

Re: Ireland v Pakistan Adelaide Oval, 15 March 2015

Ahmed Shehzad should give strike back to Sarfaraz.....

Re: Ireland v Pakistan Adelaide Oval, 15 March 2015

Rotate the strike...

Re: Ireland v Pakistan Adelaide Oval, 15 March 2015

Other guy Ahmed Shahzad totally playing for himself. 12 balls single score and i know in the end he will score 50 from 78 balls but :frusty:

Re: Ireland v Pakistan Adelaide Oval, 15 March 2015

Ireland keeper is close to wicket… Sarfaraz ko crease line kay ander rakhnay kay liye… :hmmm:

Re: Ireland v Pakistan Adelaide Oval, 15 March 2015

He is simply pathetic and restrict to test cricket only. He was a very nice guy who knows how to play shots but he is completely impressed by his captain and totally copy him :frusty:
