On topic, Pakistan are doing really well here. If they can keep the pressure on they may secure a big win which will help a lot in NRR.

He also said when De Kock got out he was "taking the game away from Pakistan". He was 33 off 48 at the time. I think the bloke has a minor brain injury.
He has a template for each player in his head and that's how he always imagines them playing regardless of what they are doing in the match. Will occasionally notice what's happening in the game when the other commentator informs him.

Exactly that. De Kock is aggressive so he was playing aggressively today in the head of dear old Rambo.

What amazes me is how little he seems to know about Pakistan players. Nasser asked him a Q on a couple of the new lads in the England ODI series and he just spouted nonsense generalities. I remember almost same conversation happening with Russell Arnold and Nass, I'm pretty sure Russell Arnold knew their blood types and mother's birthdays. Raja's lack of preparation is really shoddy.

No Simon Doull is wrong. Hasan is excellent at the death and is Pakistan's best bowler in those overs. He just didn't get his yorkers right against India, perhaps crumbled under pressure, and had a bad game.

Ramiz is seriously a ****ing idiot. He called Ali a medium pacer in the previous game as well even though he's consistently hitting very good speeds. I guess it's because he has an ungainly action?
He is just a dick. He is extremely disparaging towards the Pak current team and dismisses the bowling attack as 'bunch of medium pacers'. This is not the first time he has done this. He has also dismissed Amir as a medium pacer when he consistently hits 145+ in LO

It was such a pleasure to listen to Nasser earlier. He bothered to read up on Fakhar and provided a mini background on the debutant and his domestic achievements. .Ramiz probably doesn't even know who Fakhar is.

Then later Slater started talking about the fielding culture in Pakistan junior cricket..as if Ramiz knows jack **** about what goes on there. It's funny when these commentators start these conversations hoping Ramiz to provide some insights and he is just as clueless

Spoils a good set from Hafeez. Really not sure he needed 10 done so early, hope Pakistan haven't let them off the hook here.

That's the single worst thing about many commentators tbh. I can handle them not speaking flawless English or not providing too much interesting insight, but basic lack of research is just ******. Shows what lazy ****s some of them are.

Yep, Botham probably the most guilty I can think of. Diabolical comm all around he is.

That was a beauty by Ali. Slight movement and knick. This looks an entirely different team to the one that played India.
