Pakistan Tour of South Africa 2018/19

[trundler]

Bavuma running is a sight to behold.

I know I'm being critical again... but this performance by Olivier is why I don't think he should get in front of Ngidi.

Olivier bowls some dangerous balls, great back of length bowler, but does not make the batsmen play enough, not consistent with line and length and against better quality batsmen, used to bounce, will be found out. Already the Pak batsmen leaving the wide balls alone and playing him better.

Pakistan batsmen been so much better..... I still want to see this 'dangerous' viper pitch .

Masood is a dejavu of Farhat

 

[trundler]

Why would you put the fat slob at mid on

 

[TT Boy]

Masood is a dejavu of Farhat

They are nothing alike. Imran Farhat was a hack.

 

[trundler]

50 for Shafiq! Quadruple it.

They are nothing alike. Imran Farhat was a hack.

Yeah that's what he's implying.

 

[StephenZA]

Yeah that's what he's implying.

Some sort of double level sarcasm.... cause that is not what dejavu normally implies.

Good batting here from these two.

Farhat wasn’t a hack. He just wasn’t cut for international cricket.

 

[Ahmad Zahir]

Shan is English speaking Farhat.

 

[StephenZA]

Good batting here from these two.

They don't look intimidated..... playing with some freedom and good skill.

 

[Borges]

Too much to hope for, I suppose; but if they carry on like this for another twenty five overs or so, South Africa are going to cry for
a) having left Maharaj out of the side
b) having to bat last on this wicket.

 

[trundler]

What are the odds of Pakistan setting a 150 target here? They'd have to get to 400 though.

Lol Pak aren’t even going to bat for another 25 overs

Was always dubious about leaving Maharaj out in CT.....

Unlikely.... can see pak getting to 300 or so. They are scoring at a good rate here.

 

[vcs]

Steyn didn't look threatening at all in that spell.

 

[trundler]

No need for extravagant cut shots

 

[Borges]

This. Is. Good.

C'mon, you two: double the score of this partnership so far, wipe out the deficit. We'll talk about winning the game later.
