Not only did Pakistan won this game, they did it with good runrate and if such amazing games keeps on coming, we'd require the runrate to decide the team reaching the semi finals if we have a tie on points. I'm now eager to watch India play. Don't know why they scheduled the 1st match of India so late when most of the team would have played their second match.
The match is still ON and England still have 1 wicket left. Did not think they would manage 300 runs earlier but now the score looks so less that anything can happen. They lost 1 wicket now and they need 27 runs from 8 balls. Unless they manage to get 5 sixes, the game looks impossible for them to win.

At the last moment i thought Pakistan might lose it again when Amir gave 15 runs in his over, but then Wahab did an excellent bowling spell and took 2 wickets in 2 balls which actually made the match in favor of Pakistan.


Don't know why they scheduled the 1st match of India so late when most of the team would have played their second match.
Most probably India wanted to observe the team's play & forms in order to make their plans. It will be easy for them to defeat their opponents if they figure out the weak points.


So if that is the case then India must have seen Pakistan performance today  Wink We will have a Game on our hands on 16 June (India Vs Pakistan)

Now England needs 38 from 18 balls with 4 wickets remaining. Not unachievable but very difficult for the lower order to make that up. A great chase on the making.
Though it's sure England would try their best as they have nothing to lose it from here. Whatever the result may be, it's going to be one of the memorable matches of this world cup.

England is giving a touch competition and chasing well but now they require 61 in 33 balls and 4 wickets only left . All the set batsman is now out and due to which the game is clinching to Pakistan unless England lower order can play good cricket to win it .

I heard that India has enough control over ICC. I'm not 100% sure but that's what I heard.

Peace Indian Supporters, it was not to hurt you guys.  Smiley

Good to see a high scoring game from Pakistan. It's been long Pakistan hadn't been able to make a good batting score. Loved the format of this world cup as well where every teams are going to play with every others. Upto now, South Africa, Afghanistan and Sri Lanka looks out of competition. While other all have shown their potential in different ways.

^Eng lost 4 wickets till now not 7.

England need just too many runs to win and more than that they need atleast a 150 partnership which looks too tough as Pakistan has a great bowling unit. Pakistan looks too near to win this match but still England have an advantage of playing in their own land.
Right now Last recognized pair is on and they are doing some good if these both can stay for some time then surely its going to be very interesting required rate is still over 8 but Buttler and Root have some good recorded against Pakistan these both can change match result now boundaries coming very quickly for them.

Looks like it is going to be the second consecutive upset today. England is really struggling against Pakistan. They are seven down, and still need more than 200 runs to win. The required run rate is now inching close to eight runs per over. I know that both Stokes and Root are big hitters. They need to step up the scoring rate, and they need to do that now. 

Where did you find that England is seven down?

I just checked, they are 4 down now http://www.espncricinfo.com/series/8039/game/1144488/england-vs-pakistan-6th-match-icc-cricket-world-cup-2019

But yes England is struggling.

That's why we say Pakistan team is unpredictable. In first match, not a single batsman can score any run and now in this match we see almost everyone made a  half century. Pakistan score a massive 348 and now England have to bat very well to chase down this big total.
Pakistan is in the driving seat now and a couple more wickets they can put incredible pressure on the players as the total is really huge and they could win the match, if England has to win the match they have to have some solid partnership without taking much risk by rotating the strike and scoring occasional boundaries and target their weak bowlers to score the maximum runs and once they drag the total close to 250 without loosing much wicket then they can break free and go for the big ones.

Pakistan just proved how unpredictable they can become, with their performance against West Indies when they were struggling to put some runs on the board and now they scored the highest score in world and if England could chase that it will be the biggest run chase in world cup history, do i really think England can chase those, i think they have the team, but they really had a bad day in the field especially Jason Roy as he dropped an easy catch of Mohammad Hafeez and if he could have held on to that catch the scores would have being different, will that drop will be a costly one will be known in the first 15 overs of the chase.

Another surprise in store? Pakistan is off to a good start versus England. After 13.2 overs, they are 80/0 with F Zaman and Imam ul Haq scoring the runs at a brisk pace. Both Archer and Woakes went for quite a few runs... Hopefully England will be able to fight back once Moeen Ali and Adil Rashid bowl in tandem. On the other hand, we can expect 350+ if Zaman and Imam stays there for some more time.

South Africa and Aghanistan seem to lose their way in this world cup but I was shocked to see Pak perform so badly and play as if it was a T20 match. I don't have much hope for Bangladesh even though they defeated SA but still to make 330 runs is commendable. Shakib has always been performing well since I've seen him in IPL but I used to think he is a good bowler but now can say he is a great batsman too. Waiting for Ind Vs SA.

I was not surprised by Bangladesh's win over SA as I said in the other cricket thread, Bangladesh will be the dark horse this World Cup and will upset some of the top teams which we saw. Bangladesh have been on the rise for the past year in international cricket and maybe now they can show the whole world just how much they have grown as a team. SA are now in danger of not going through as they now have lost their two opening matches and its very hard to come back from that as they will need to rely on other teams to lose.

Congrats to Bangladesh - Well played.

I am very upset about not able to watch world cup matches due to my busy times - shame on me.  Sad

I just saw the last 4 balls play of South Africa vs Bangladesh Match - the heat momentum. Bangladesh's both batting & bowling department done well.

Cheers World Cup Nations - My best wishes.
