Decent start, pitch looks pretty easy.

 

They just showed his action using the side cameras. Not chucking. @Ahson8 can you merge this to the match thread.

 

Pakistan on a faya start!

 

Sharjeel destroyed Billy loool

 

Brilliant batting by Sharjeel. Taking Stanlake to cleaners. 6, 4, 4 in a row. Amazing stuff!

 

Lols.

 

Why Sharjeel is so much better than other openers, he can put pressure on the other side.

 

Gone

 

And hafeez's luck finally runs out and he shows us his real aukat. No smith to give him second chances this time.

 

Hafeez being Hafeez but of course people have short memories and he was hailed a super hero after the last innings.

 

Azhar and his pals Shafiq, Hafeez and Wahab need to go!

 

This would bring all those to the ground.

 

Nervous times for @Ahson8

 

Classy shot from babar and saved by the fielder. Pitch looks good for batting. WACA is a myth and a false one after they rebuilt the stadium.

 

Another classy shot from Babar. Well done, lad. Aim for hundred today.

 

Pakistan operating at a RR of around 7.

 

Sharjeel visibly shaken after the bouncer from billy.

 

Billy is on the nervy end.

 

Hafeez will click with the ball and captaincy.

 

Someone shud smash Hazlewood for some sixes.

 

Babar gobbling up balls now. 8 (15)

 

Babar survives a DRS call. Inside edge. Looking distraught at the crease.

 

Big edge there. Review wasted

 

Babar Azam shud smash few sixes.

 

And @aliasad1998

 

Should rotate the strike. He isnt good at that.

 

8 (19) now. Babar continues.

 

Babar probably going to play his second maiden now. 5 balls off cummins zero runs.

 

mashAllah @Red Devil has started the match thread today. Hope it doesn't turn out to be manhoos.

 

Waqar saying that Sharjeel needs to be on the strike more often. Is the other batsman a night watchman or tail ender?

 

Babar has been batting like Azhar Ali lately

 

We lost the first ODI when you started the thread and won the second ODI when you didn't! Coincidence? I think not.

Had to take matters into my own hands.

 

Cant wait for Haris Sohail to come back at 3.

 

I never opened the thread. You're exposed here.

 

I will pay so much money to not have Shafiq come in next

 

Never let the truth get in the way of a good story.

 

Man the run rate has gone below 5. Tell your favorite hack player Sharjeel to take things in his own hands now.

 

Hojaye ga, they don't have a proper fifth bowler.. We should target Maxwell/Head when they come on to bowl.

 

clearly some guys didnt get the memo on capitalizing after a good start.
