World Cup Warm-up Matches Discussion Thread - Non India games

[Frustrated]

Pak bowling is Shaheen or surrender.  This means they will play Shaheen in all 9 games in round1 , and he might get injured by the fag end.

This Wasim Jnr kid is useless.  Pak needs that guy whose action resembles a bit of malinga.    Zaman Khan, I think.  

[TrueAllRounder]

Pak bowlers yet to adjust to bowling 10 overs. Still comfortable with T20 type

Hello Fellow forumers,

Im new to the forums and actually new to following cricket so I was lookin for cricket chat platform where I could learn from cricket fans about the sports and I hope Im excused if I end up asking questions that may not make a lot of sense to cricket geeks.

 

Thanks again !

Chapman Phillips both of them are unlike Kiwi chumps who choke against Poyzz... 

One is a Saffer & other is a Hong long product

If Wasim Jnr is a kid then I am still in middle school...  That Zaman looks like a massive age fudger too.

.the western parts of the country will be dry,these should have scheduled the warm us there but that would require too much forethought for BCCI.

Stadiums should be designed with roofs in the future just like football stadiums.

This is another highway road like Bumrah got smashed for 81 couple of days ago  not bowlers friendly at all no swing nothing

We understood that the moment Pakistan played 50 overs.

On sporty pitches they will be bundled in 20 overs.

These warm-up games are scaring me.  Look how NZ are easily chasing 350 like a walk in the park.

Bangladesh thrased SL.

The new found confidence after Asia cup seems to be disappearing 

We smashed Eng in Warm in WT20...  Kela Rahul turned into Chris Gayle. 

Don't worry..  Pressure will do funny things.

Bro, the stats I gave you are for the last 5 years bro - not just warmup.  Is Lassoon Ali the best you can manage from your awaam?

I don't think Ind will play with more than 20% intensity in their warm up against Eng. On the other hand,Eng will come hard. Thakur might bowl 10 overs. Jadeja too. A heavy defeat although it's still a warm up won't be good. 

Would be great actually...  We played Eng in last T20 WC smashed them..  I hope they pulverize us.  

Don't play Kuldeep Siraj Bunrah against them

By kid, I meant he bowled like a kid.  Not that he is a kid.  .     Yes, most pak players are age fudgers.  Zaman doesnot look like being 22.  More like 27 or so.  

[Sean Bradley]

Pakistan looks clueless to be honest. These bunch of Pakistani players are no comparison to the likes of Wasim, Waqar, Shoaib, Imran Anwar Etc of the past. They look like gaon ke launde lost in sheher for some reason.

 

I really want them to do well as it will make the WC exciting. But after watching today's warm ups, doesn't look like they will reach semi finals.

And then miss Aus series, with him and Naseem out, Aussies will target 1000 runs per innings. This time even Cummins may fancy scoring a 300. 

[The Hound]

I seriously don't see Pakistan winning more than 3 games. Afghanistan should fancy their chances against them in Chennai since their kryptonite Naseem won't be around.

Another triple ton for Warner in his farewell series... Ummah Brother Khawaja would also do his part... At least Islam would win in some form

 

Pee Pee's Dr Junaid has laid out a full proof plan already

Didn't we do it in 2003? We don't take the kiwaahs as seriously as Australia, England and Pakistan that is the problem. 

 

High time we take them seriously then, bahut maar padi hai, enough for one lifetime, no more
