Khota Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Playing 3 spinner is their best chance. Similarly playing all pace attack is Englands best chance. England will score around 300 with the team they have. Pakistan has not proven that they can score that much. England wins. Disclaimer: Anything can happen. Link to comment
Vilander Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Pak has to plan to Target England with spin odds of pace troubling them is very remote if not unlikely. Link to comment
StarWolf Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Agree. Pakistan needs to drop Fahim and play Shadab. They should also look for playing Shehzad and Haris instead of Azhar and Hafeez. Link to comment
Pollack Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 They have pretenders as spinners. Shadab is the only specialist. Hafeez chucks.So he is a thrower not spinner. Link to comment
Asim Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 For this game I wud go for Shadab and Haris replacing Fahim and Hafeez Link to comment
MCcricket Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Anything can happen in life n cricket but Murphy's law striking twice the chances of a miracle, Pakistan is just about above an associate ICC standard Link to comment

To crash all our chances going forward as he can smash it in last part and will be useful. Azhar Ali should sit out Link to comment

Azhar Ali should sit out Fahim bowling might not be as useful as Shadab.. . if Shadab can pick 2,3 wickets, it will be way more useful than couple of boundars Fahim will hit... Link to comment
TheWall Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Pak bowling is no problem. They can tackle Eng, but its their batting which might let them down... Link to comment

Looks like you need to play 15 batsmen to match England's batting though. Link to comment

sandeep Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 My sentiments..... If Pakistan don't play both these guys in the semi final, that almost confirms that the selection of the final playing XI is politicized. That means that the coach and captain are unable to do right by their team and should be canned. Link to comment
wanted_desi Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Pakistan has been lucky so far, luck might take them all the way like 1992 WC. NZ was the best team in 92 WC, and Inzi played a risky inning which paid off well. Link to comment

Hafeez is nothing player nor is Azhar anything in ODIs. We won two matches with a team of 9. Link to comment

I have yet to see a bonafide top drawer batting prospect from Pakistan in the last 10 years. A guy who can really bat with proper technique and authority against quality bowling and score at a reasonable rate in white ball cricket. Even Babar Azam, who to be fair, comes close to that, is a soft dismissal specialist. You guys have no choice but to keep these 2 dinosaurs in your team. In fact, Shoaib is the best ODI batsman in that unit. Link to comment
Asim Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 btw news say around 40% of Pak vs Eng match tickets were already purchased by indians, why so, they were expecting to finish#2 in group or what... Link to comment

Of course, if you are buying before the tournament starts, its a good bet that SA and India would beat the 2 paltoo teams, and Ind-SA could go SA's way. Link to comment

Dropping Azhar Ali can be a risk... Yeah he is slow but at least do ensure staying at wicket for a while... (I feel they wont include Haris now anyways) Link to comment
