Namibia v Pakistan, (Pakistan's Streak Ends Here) at Abu Dhabi, 11/2 Tuesday (N), Match # 31, Group 1

[SillyCowCorner1]

I'm banking on Namibia causing an upset here.

Also, wickets in this tournament:

Ruben Trumpelmann- 6
India- 2

 

[Niall]

As good as time as any to see if their is any alternatives to Hasan Ali.

I'm in two minds with Afridi, you don't want to disrupt the momentum, but its only Namibia and you want him him as fresh as possible for a semi.

 

[nightprowler10]

Agree on Hasan but I'd play Afridi. It's only 4 overs and fielding.

 

[Aritro]

I'm absolutely backing them to win the World Cup and absolutely unwilling to put my house on them not dropping this one.

Namibia chasing!

Not going to be easy against this quality of bowling tho, but hopefully their army of left arm seamers can keep Pak to something chaseable.

 

[cnerd123]

Looked not out live tbh.

Good start by Namibia.

 

[mackembhoy]

I'm surprised by Pakistan batting first.

My only logic is getting some practice batting first, as a game they'd expect to win with a safety net of another winnable game to come.

When they're already in the driving seat to progress.

 

[Arachnodouche]

Been spoiled looking at Archer and Cummin's braced and upright release over the last few years. Every other bowler seems to crumple on their front leg in painful ways.

 

[Aritro]

Someone needs to find Trumpelmann's front arm and give it back to him so he can start using it ?

 

[Daemon]

That's a sensational catch from Green. Awesome.

 

[Aritro]

That mad Fakhar's gone. Amazing adjustment from Green to pouch it after what might have been some shoddy footwork

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Namibia needs to pull this back

 

[Aritro]

I don't think I'll ever tire of looking at these flying saucer grandstands. Marvellous piece of stadium architecture

 

[Daemon]

Hafeez bullying them here wac

 

[smash84]

England probably the standout batting side in this tournament, even though Pak in a strong position but the batters don't have that power hitting ability that the English do

 

[Daemon]

This is brutal. Poor Namibia.

 

[smash84]

That last over would have really hurt Namibia's morale

 

[Arachnodouche]

Rizwan might be an even better batsman than Azam. At least his equal.

 

[Howe_zat]

Hafeez bullying them here wac

Just a Brudenell legend doing his thing

 

[Daemon]

130 in the last 10 overs.

Toss whingers to hopefully go quiet tonight but that’s wishful thinking
