Pakistan vs NewZealand - 3rd ODI - 2011

Re: Pakistan vs NewZealand - 3rd ODI - 2011

cricinfo saying the same thing:

Start slow. Build a base. Then explode. The Pakistan way. Hafeez built the innings, Misbah steadied it, and Afridi, along with Umar, turned on the heat in the end. Pakistan end up on a strong 293.

Re: Pakistan vs NewZealand - 3rd ODI - 2011

Hafeez is definitely in form and will be a great benefit to pakistan in the world cup!!

Re: Pakistan vs NewZealand - 3rd ODI - 2011

^Yes, Umar and Hafeez were also very impressive. Umar was so efficient, quietly accumulated his runs. This batting side looks scary. Still feel Misbah, while very good in test cricket, just does not fit in this format.

Re: Pakistan vs NewZealand - 3rd ODI - 2011

I would take shafiq over misbah to be honest!

Re: Pakistan vs NewZealand - 3rd ODI - 2011

Why not replace Younis with Asad? Misbah atleast is scoring some runs unlike Younis Khan who is clearly struggling for form in ODI

Re: Pakistan vs NewZealand - 3rd ODI - 2011

good point! thats a good option!

Re: Pakistan vs NewZealand - 3rd ODI - 2011

Interesting!

‘Teams had been at the receiving end of such a Pakistan strategy in the 1999 World Cup when slow progress with wickets in hand through the middle overs set the stage for a violent surge in the last ten overs. Not a bad way to prepare for the 2011 edition in much the same way.’
