Gonna be hilarious if Pak lose even after all those charity overs lmao...

 

Haar gaye namoone. 

[Forward Defence]

Haris Rauf 9 overs 97. what happened in this game? Labuschagne, Smith, Warner bowling truckload of overs. Some attempted reverse jinxing going on?

[Norman]

Australia basically said "we'll bowl our worst bowlers for 40 overs, drop some dollies but still a win is out of your auqaat" lmao

[deathmonger]

pakistan need the win though cause after asia cup humiliation they needed a win for psychological reasons.

Nah that's just our naughty birds paying a nice tribute to paxtani team's performance.. 

[bowl_out]

Australia got what they wanted from this. They wanted to put themselves in a tough situation to defend and they did that successfully

Haris Rauf ka batao. 9 over mein 97!

[Forward Defence]

SL looking completely out of sorts.

[Frustrated]

Aus tried everything possible to lose the game.  Worst part timers like Warner, Smith & Labu bowled nearly 16 overs combined.   Yet poyzz managed to lose.  

[Frustrated]

Babar Hajam should not hv retd hurt.  Should hv stayed till the end to ensure psychological victory for poyzz.

Gurbaz toying with Lahiru Kumara. SL is not going to upset anybody in the WC. Is Mathews retired?

[Nikhil_cric]

Picking Dushan Hemantha over Binura lmao.  

 

SL just don't have the runs .  Apart from Mendis, can't trust anyone to score heavily.

 

At least Pakistan have figured their best XI out.

SL is beating Pakistan on 10th...  That's certain..  None of their match ups suit them against Lankans. 

Except Shaheen they don't have a ace up their sleeve to trouble Lankans.

In Hyderabad ? I would have agreed that SL had improved chances if they were playing in Delhi, Chennai or Lucknow .

 

They are definitely missing Hasaranga , Chameera and Binura Fernando while getting Theeksana , Rajitha and Dushan in return. 

 

Theeksana in these conditions and in ODIs is a little overrated for mine. 

 

But the main issue is the batting . I just don't see who is going to consistently score runs. 

 

Are you talking about SL bowlers being bad match ups for PSK batters?
