West Indies v Pakistan, 3rd ODI

Re: West Indies v Pakistan, 3rd ODI

well…Babar is out, i guess its hopeless now.

Re: West Indies v Pakistan, 3rd ODI

Not going well…already 3 down in the important match…hmmm

Re: West Indies v Pakistan, 3rd ODI

Pak batsmen should write a book on how to make a seemingly straightforward and easy run chase a difficult one!

Re: West Indies v Pakistan, 3rd ODI

The RRR is under 5 (4.91)…so Malik & Hafeez can** play risk-free shots…take it easy… :D**

Re: West Indies v Pakistan, 3rd ODI

Nice 50 by hafeez. Keep it up till the end. He also bowled economically

Re: West Indies v Pakistan, 3rd ODI

Hafeez 53* :k:

RRR 4.78

Pak 100/3 off 22.0 overs

Re: West Indies v Pakistan, 3rd ODI

100/3 after 22 overs

Good recovery job by these two. Hafeez batting well today

Re: West Indies v Pakistan, 3rd ODI

Pak 124/3 the halfway…play risk-free cricket… :smiley:

RRR 4.40

Re: West Indies v Pakistan, 3rd ODI

Hafeez would have been out LBW on 39 had Windies opted for review. The on-field umpire’s decision would have been overturned as he was hit in line and the ball was hitting the stumps.

However you sometimes need luck in this game

Re: West Indies v Pakistan, 3rd ODI

The 4th-wicket partnership held the innings together for both the teams

Re: West Indies v Pakistan, 3rd ODI

Thinking to leave for home how so I can watch winning moments..

BUT..at the same time scared if they mess up and get out before that :bummer:

Re: West Indies v Pakistan, 3rd ODI

100 partnership between Malik & Hafeez… :k:

Pak 143/3 off 27.4 overs

RRR 4.07

Re: West Indies v Pakistan, 3rd ODI

Rameez asks a valid Q: Why can’t Hafeez.com bat like this more often? Admittedly he’s not great against genuine pace but Hafeez has got most of the shots in the book

Re: West Indies v Pakistan, 3rd ODI

I think Rameez Raja does not know that cricket is a complex sport…and more often he has some ‘kali zaban’ against Pakistan… :smiley:

PS: hafeez.com is a parked domain

Re: West Indies v Pakistan, 3rd ODI

Damn…Hafeez out on 81…poor and needless shot to play at this stage…but well played… :k:

Re: West Indies v Pakistan, 3rd ODI

Shoaib’s 50 :k:

played well at a very important and difficult time

Re: West Indies v Pakistan, 3rd ODI

Malik 51* :k:

RRR 4.0

Re: West Indies v Pakistan, 3rd ODI

Pak 207/4 off 40.0 overs…just 27 runs away from the Trophy… :jhanda: :smiley:

Re: West Indies v Pakistan, 3rd ODI

Despite this performance I am worried about our chances in CT (a tournament that we have never won). Only Babar Azam is an accomplished batsman in this team

Hafeez and Malik are not more than batting all-rounders. Shehzad is not reliable + wastes too many deliveries. Kamran Akmal is not very consistent with the bat. Should have played Fakhar in all the games. Sarfraz again is not a specialist batsman; he is a good utility player like Moin Khan

Re: West Indies v Pakistan, 3rd ODI

Windies were poor in the field today; dropped 2 or 3 catches
