***Official **** Pakistan in Zimbabwe

[Fusion]

That will only happen if Imran becomes President.

I fail to see how Imran destroying the country will help Pakistan cricket.

I didn't expect my bait would work so quickly Fusion. It hasn't been a few minutes, and you have already replied.

 

[Fusion]

Oh come on, it's been ages since I've replied to an "Imran is the savior" post (and they’ve been plenty made). Give me some credit!

What is Kyle Jarvis like?

Tall, blond, athletic and good-looking!



In all seriousness though, the lad looks promising. Nice, high-arm action, gets close to the stumps and hits the seam nicely. Not much of a swinger in the air apparently (compared to the guy at the other end, Vitori), but does move the new ball decently off the seam. Primarily away from the left-handers and his wicket-to-wicket angle makes him a tough bowler to face.

Calm down dear, calm down.

I agree with Fusion that Imran will destroy the country as we know it, building a better one Pakistan

Fairly uninspiring team Zim are putting out with Mpofu, Elton, Justice and Hamilton the only seam bowling options. More batting has been added but not much quality. Pak should walk this.

Fart-hat

 

[TT Boy]

Ray Price the best ODI opening bowler since McGrath or Pollock.

 

[TT Boy]

Seems like Zim have ditched their plans on developing a ODI seam attack. 7 overs of spin so far and plenty more to come.

why is Younis playing odi's?

dire selection.

 

[TT Boy]

Younis Khan only averages above 35 against 3 test playing nations, India, Bangladesh and Zimbabwe. Similarly he only has a SR above 80 against the aforementioned side. Younis averages over 100 against Zimbabwe in ODIs in Zimbabwe.

Not sure why Misbah is playing as well. Be 40 when the next WC rolls around.

atleast one can find an excuse that you need one senior batsman and he also captains with Younis there is no sense in selecting him quite easily Shafiq or Azhar could have been blooded in this series for him.

 

[TT Boy]

Pulled this back well have Zim. Malik gone.

 

[TT Boy]

Currently Elton's second most economical performance in ODIs with the ball after this...

4th ODI: Bangladesh v Zimbabwe at Chittagong, Nov 3, 2009 | Cricket Scorecard | ESPN Cricinfo

 

[Howe_zat]

If I had one thing I'd like to see this series it's for Malik to fail.

I'd say things were back to even here but I don't like the look of Zimbabwe's batting. 250 should be more than enough.

 

[Nigel Benjamin]

I can't believe my eyes, Elton with an economy of 3.10! It's amazing!

 

[Howe_zat]

Strange innings from Umar. Seems Pakistan have stalled.

 

[Nigel Benjamin]

247-7 looks lgood enough for Pakistan considering the wicket is taking a bit of turn. Good stuff by Elton and Ray.
