10th Match - Pakistan v West Indies

[Burgey]

Would've thought you'd have been more annoyed about the trend of batsmen not getting in line tbh

It's part of the same syndrome - gutless spiv syndrome

Pitch clearly has something in it if Russell can get it to jag in like that. Btw, what's the world record margin of victory in ODIs? Fmd they need another 286.

 

[Immenso]

Hah. Got mixed up with the Aus scoring method and thought nothing of it being 1/4.

Seen the wickets now, the ball by Taylor to get Younis was an absolute peach, perfect.
As for Haris Sohail ........

Nearly everyone can beat everyone in this WC, it's great

True, but from a NZ POV, I'd be much more comfortable with a QF vs. Pakistan than the Windies, even given to former's WC history against us.

Apart from NZ/OZ, who look at least one level above everyone else

this is despicable cricket from pakistan. i thought eng were the worst of the big 8, but this makes me revise that assumption.

To be fair if NZ top the group, it will probably be Pak/Ireland/Zimbabwe though in the quarter final. That makes the match v Australia next week so important for both sides. Epic.

This is hilarious

 

[halba]

crazy world cup. **** and eng clearly as bad as minnows now.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Didn't realise Umar was just 24. Hopefully AN's gonna have many more years' worth of grape selfies.

 

[Zinzan]

Holy ***, that could easily have been parried to 1st slip. Don't Pakistan learn.

 

[OverratedSanity]

That's horrendous. Deserved to be out.

agree. the standard of cricket is bordering ridiculous from eng and pak.

I honestly thought he'd be the next big thing when he first toured NZ around 2010.

He seemed to have it all, but FMD, he's disintegrated since.

Yeah. Been used awfully by Pakistan though. Still think he has loads of raw ability... one of the few PakPassion darlings who has true talent imo.

geez that shot is quality

Another gem by Rameez Raja . . . " Maqsood is a real talent when he is on song"

 

[SJS]

Amazing how few of these blokes play it late and with the full face these days when it moves. They play the first line and get squared up so badly.

And how few of the people on the net notice stuff like that . . . good one mate.

Heh, the DJ playing the "Batman" theme when Akmal asks for a new bat.
