I am a huge fan of England's batting approach, but they don’t really adapt whenever they get that rare LOs pitch that isn’t flat. I remember them being 20-6 on a greentop at Lord's in an ODI vs SA

We adapted in the World Cup Final so I feel we have the players to do it when it matters. When it comes to bilaterals, ever since Morgan took over, it was a 'keep going' approach. Of course winning matches can be better than losing ones that are there for the taking.

Perhaps the pitch skidded on a bit more with the dew and certainly the spinners controlled the game after the early wickets. Duckett getting out was probably the biggest blow before those middle overs, which is something I didn't think I'd say about two weeks ago. Certainly don't want to take away from Pakistan, that's a weaker bowling line up than they've had in other matches and they still won. Wasim and Jamal both did very well. The upcoming youngster, Iftikhar, looks a better bowler than batter.

He's still young, can choose whether he wants to be a bowler or batter

One of the best cricket photographs i have seen recently.

That’s a good point, however i am still skeptical that our batting approach can win a World Cup on dead pitches.
Despite Babar and Rizwan’s consistency, their need to be relatively defensive in the Powerplay in order to bat long, and the middle order’s troubles mean that we rely heavily on our bowlers to win a trophy.

Good start by Haris, he still got out early but was looking good.

Wrong pitch for that approach, but loved his intent. Needs to adapt better, but should be backed, not wasted like Haider.

not wasted like Haider.

He just needs to improve hitting short deliveries.

Someone just shut/ban these ex-cricketers twitter accounts including Hafeez, Amir, Malik. They just need a reason to criticise PCB
