[Malcolm]

Pakistan going to win today.
Md Amir MoM
Babar Azam going to be the first centurion of this WC

"If you see the one-day series, we were not that far from England. They scored 1430-odd runs, we scored 1370 runs, so we were 70 runs short."

This is a... novel way of analysing things.

 

[harsh.ag]

Not surprising he can't subtract properly

 

[Starfighter]

What's the comparison for wickets taken?

Edit: 33 to 23 in matches that had a result. I like this novel way hiding the opposition's successful chases to make things look closer.

Anybody who saw that series knows the bs. Duh .

England only scored 60 more because they were chasing in half of them.

 

[vcs]

I guess his point is that Pakistan made plenty of runs in that series as well as the earlier one against Australia. The batting collapse against WI was the first one they've had in a while.

Bowling has sucked for a long time, though.

 

[trundler]

It's the same outfit that won CT17. The bowling will magically step up and crush England today

 

[trundler]

Woakes to top score

I hope you havent bet on this.

 

[trundler]

A repeat yesterday will occur.

England win the toss and bowl.

 

[weldone]

Shoaib and Asif for Imad and Haris - not a bad strategy to strengthen batting. They need to pile up 370.

I'd have liked Shaheen to come in place of Wahab too.

 

[mr_mister]

Booo at this decision. Bat first and set them 450. This is not fair to the fans to see Pakistan post 120 again

 

[GoodAreasShane]

Anyone want to do an over/under on how many runs Wahab will concede?

Depends on if the Pakistan batsman even make that many runs in the first place

 

[trundler]

No more than 65

 

[Groundking]

I really don't know why we're not just batting. Smh.

 

[harsh.ag]

Pakistan's love affair with Wahab continues. He must kill during training

 

[PikeyB]

Today I expect a brave Englishman to do his duty ....and break that horrible electric guitar .

Looking forward to this game , was a bit underwhelmed by the short fixtures we had last few days but Bangladesh v SA cheered me right up .

 

[GoodAreasShane]

No more than 65

He has leaked 237 runs at 10.61 per over in his last three ODIs in England.

What a joke

 

[Howe_zat]

Picking Wood over Plunkett because they will definitely be bounced out for 150 again is just hubris.

 

[trundler]

A square drive reminiscent of Lara. Wonderful.
