Devil-Dick Willie Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 181 for 7. What a performance by Pakistan. If they can do England for anything under 250 they are favorites, in spite of their unco batting line up. Quote

Lucas Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 The only way England can win this game now is to bowl Pakistan out. Simple. And to do that we really need to have at least 5 wickets pegged before they get 130-140 on the board. I was hoping we would really rip into them from the off and have at least two wickets down in the first 10 overs but so far Pakistan have started well. It is theirs to lose now and that's the most disappointing thing. Quote

Didn't help that he didn't hit a boundary but he was in difficult circumstances. Pakistan bowlers played the game and the situation beautifully. Quote
IgnisExcubitor Posted June 14, 2017 Author Posted June 14, 2017 Going at a run-rate of almost 6, without pushing any panic buttons. This has to be the performance of the tournament so far, because it's come against the best side. And unlike South Africa, who shot themselves in the foot against India, England have not committed any errors today. They have simply been outplayed. This is why Pakistan are such a dangerous side. They can do this to the best on their day. Quote
Azeem Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 England is trying to over do it and thus the extras Quote
Administrator Stan Posted June 14, 2017 Administrator Posted June 14, 2017 Superb performance from Pakistan. Can't really fault it at all in any department and you don't say that often! Hopefully there's not another shock tomorrow! Wonder if Mohammed Amir will be back in time for Sunday. Quote

Amir's wife arrived at the camp on the night after the Sri Lanka game and then he suddently got injured, wonder that has something to do with the former. Quote
Lucas Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 So frustrating. Pakistan were brilliant in all areas. I'd actually say, that's one of the best showings I've seen from them in the field as well because they can be quite sloppy. England really let themselves down today because they just didn't adapt to the conditions which favoured the Pakistani's more. Performance with the bat was poor. If Pakistan could make the runs they did in 40 odd overs, there's no reason why we couldn't have. We just seemed far too defensive and paralysed when we lost wickets. And by the time we got the ball, there just wasn't enough runs on the board to defend and put pressure on Pakistan batting to even give us a chance. But what can you do. This England team has come on leaps and bounds in the past year or so. We've gone from playing negative cricket and getting tonked to playing an exciting brand, pretty much regularly scoring 300+ with the bat and winning most of our one day format games. We agonisingly lost a Twenty20 final down to one man's brilliance in the last over and now having won three games convincingly, we've bowed out to an upredictable mercurial Pakistani team. That is one day cricket. Any team can beat you on the day and unfortunately the one time we were off colour, we were made to pay. Hopefully this bunch will taste success sooner or later in an ICC tournament because we're certainly deserving of it. Good luck to Pakistan in the final. I just hope if it's India they play, they don't capitulate and make the final a complete non event. Quote
Administrator Stan Posted June 15, 2017 Administrator Posted June 15, 2017 Frantic start to this game. Couple of wickets and plenty of boundaries. Bangladesh 46-2 after the powerplay. Quote
Devil-Dick Willie Posted June 15, 2017 Posted June 15, 2017 Tamim is a rape train, he has no breaks, and India is a narrow tunnel. Quote
Administrator Stan Posted June 15, 2017 Administrator Posted June 15, 2017 getting smashed around here for fun. Not very effective with the ball today. Quote
Administrator Stan Posted June 15, 2017 Administrator Posted June 15, 2017 Didn't think much of Jadhav before that wicket ! Quote
Administrator Stan Posted June 15, 2017 Administrator Posted June 15, 2017 some much needed breakthroughs made. Jadeja and Jadhav. Quote
Devil-Dick Willie Posted June 15, 2017 Posted June 15, 2017 Fuck ya'll. Was hoping the gangbangas would post 300+ and make a game of this. They'll be lucky to hit 250 now, and good luck defending it. Quote
Lucas Posted June 15, 2017 Posted June 15, 2017 Too easy for India. The final had better be competitive or Pakistan can get fucked. Quote
Administrator Stan Posted June 15, 2017 Administrator Posted June 15, 2017 haha it's bound to be competitive. Since the game in the group stages, they've improved massively. We're in good form - my only concern is that the middle order don't get much batting practice because of how good the top 3 are Should be a cracker. Quote
