Pakistan Tour of South Africa and Zimbabwe - April / May 2021

[Yash.]

WTF happened there. Sad that he didn't get his double.

Fitting for a great Pakistan innings to end with a run out.

 

[Bevab]

Lol Quinny did Fakhar dirty there.

Wonder if it would technically come under fake fielding.

@Aislabie is probably picking Zaman in the next Pakistani themed draft for this very reason.

 

[Bevab]

Wasn't it Hasnain who had a streaky 20 or 30 versus England before the WC? Why was he in the shed while Rauf marched out? Did they think the massive screams of Rauf would actually translate into boundaries?

Right? I remember Labuschagne being penalised for fake gesturing in domestic cricket. Plus the 5 runs penalty for the ball hitting Bavuma's hat?

Whatever, if it wasn’t for Fakhar's near miracle, we played pathetically. Special mention for Shadab and Asif Ali, who wasted balls without scoring.

 

[Khan Sahab54]

Again Fakhar Zaman proved why he is Fakhr e Pakistan.

 

[CerealKiller]

Screw this management. Hasnain could’ve proven handy at 9.

I wouldn't blame any of the batsman who got out in first 20 overs of the innings. Nortje and Ngidi were just on top of their game and nothing much could've been done to avoid losing wickets to them. Also I think Shadab did a decent job with the bat but he failed to convert his start into a 30-40 odd innings which again hampered Pakistan's chase.

I think Faheem and Hasnain bowled poorly and this is where the Proteas gained momentum while batting. I think this series is proving to be a great exhibition of one-day Cricket.

But we definitely need changes in our side we have to drop Asif Ali and we need to rest Danish Aziz he is a young boy he has played 9 domestic matches only.

This is where the problem lies. If you've brought somebody into the team, give them a proper chance to perform. We've lost so many players to immature call-ups and then immediate discarding.

So I looked it up and Bavuma's hat receiving the ball would not count as a penalty of five runs. Quinny's fake fielding does count though, which means Zaman could potentially (he was very tired tbf) have scored a double century if the umpires would actually do their homework and apply laws sensibly.

 

[RUDI]

Respect for Fakhar Zaman here today

As for the Protea bowlers .. what a load of BS! Terrible bowling ...

So it would’ve been 25 off 5? 20 off 5 if Bavuma's penalty runs counted. I remember KL Rahul fielding at short leg, and the ball touched the flap of his helmet before he caught it, and the batting side got 5 runs.

 

[CerealKiller]

Seriously, not even knowing which one of your tailenders is the best batsman? Pathetic.

 

[CerealKiller]

Would’ve been 24 off 6, even without the Bavuma runs
