*Official* Pakistan in England 2020

[Daemon]

He bought his own cover drive hype

Ends on 69 though, nice

Shafiq has been around a bloody long time for someone who leaves no impression whatsoever in one's memory.

Waiting for trundler/Uppercut's thoughts on coverdrives

 

[trundler]

oh no

 

[Flem274*]

ive always held out hope for him since watching his debut to be more than a high 30s downhill skier so hoping asad shafiq is ahappy shafiq tonight

 

[Starfighter]

Really? I don't buy that at all. Hotspot would be useful there, but it looked like there was a very slim gap to me.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Admittedly I'm watching on mute but that looked soooo out haha. Didn't even notice the edge.

Don't use it against Anderson that early on ;_;

 

[OverratedSanity]

I knew Shafiq was older than people thought but still surprised to find out he's almost 35.

 

[trundler]

Think that was the pad lol.

That's the line Broad should've been hitting yesterday

 

[Daemon]

I mean really if there's one bowler you shouldn't be cover driving it's this bloke

Rain saved England yesterday imo

 

[Burgey]

We're all ardently hoping Baba doesn't turn into another Umar Akmal, aren't we? Jeez he's a good player.

 

[honestbharani]

Its why I think we need to realize an England without Anderson in England is a lot lesser bowling line up than with him, like a LOT lesser inspite of Woakes, Broad etc. He did not look good yesterday but produces the goods today.

 

[Starfighter]

I think Pakistan might have got away with one there.

 

[honestbharani]

We're all ardently hoping Baba doesn't turn into another Umar Akmal, aren't we? Jeez he's a good player.

He is their cousin... Can never be sure when that might catch up with him. But seems to be doing and saying all the right things so far in his career. So all the best to him.

 

[smash84]

Damn it, so angry now at yesterday's rain

 

[Flem274*]

I knew Shafiq was older than people thought but still surprised to find out he's almost 35.

classic case of looking better than he is. technique is sound and he can obviously score runs, but just can't crack batting higher than #6.

pakistans ian bell

 

[Adders]

Do we not do hot spot any more? You need both hotspot and ultra edge for calls like that ffs

 

[trundler]

With MisYou around he's in the right hands. Seems a lot more professional and less likely to expose himself to the coach.

 

[trundler]

Ominous from Shafiq
