6th Match - England v Pakistan

[trundler]

Shot of the day. RR back to 6. Take him off.

 

[morgieb]

Surely Pakistan have better options than Hasan at this point?

 

[trundler]

As I said, proper batsmen will do well this Cup. Root, Babar, Shakib etc

 

[Borges]

Hafeez is really applying the choke. My boy is going to make England cry.

Shoaib comes on lol

Hafeez is such a legit ODI bowling option.

Malik on now. This could be the start of the squeez. Should have Imad in the XI as well tbh, don't really need both Wahab and Hasan Ali. Pick one of them and just press with spin for the remainder of the tournament.

All depends on Root and Buttler

All depends on Buttler actually. Root isn't going to get this RRR for this long.

I actually think if they get a run a ball for the next 15, as long as they have wickets in hand they have a very good shot at winning.

 

[trundler]

The meme of lefties not playing off spinners well better come true

 

[Niall]

.

Always a chance he could be done for chucking as he has been before despite the long sleeves.

Pakistan should win this really no matter the depth of this batting line up.

 

[weldone]

Good stuff from Sarfraz getting his 5th bowling option done against Stokes (offspin). He'll need Shadab and Amir against Buttler.

 

[trundler]

Rank long hops in this over

 

[cnerd123]

Yea so the ICC has this rule (not sure if formal or unspoken) that fielders can't throw the ball to each other on the bounce if they're within the circle. The idea is to prevent them from artificially wearing out one side of the ball. Seems like Pak are doing this quite a bit and the umpires are warning them.

Wonder if this means we get to see Amir and Riaz reverse the ball in another 10-15 overs.

Yet Stokes is still top scorer of the tournament.

 

[trundler]

And the meme comes true.

The Professor's having a great day. Excellent 'tache too.

 

[trundler]

What'd I say about Malik and Hafeez

Trundler 1000 - universe 0

 

[Burgey]

Buttler shittng himself here too.no one bottles like a Pom.

Dumb to send Stokes in to face two off spinners

 

[trundler]

Moment of truth.
