Fazalhaq Farooqi Last over Tricks but Vained.

Yesterday's match saw a tense situation where Afghanistan fast bowler Fazal Haq Farooqui controversially took the wicket of Shadab Khan in the last over of the innings when Pakistan needed 11 runs. Although this wicket of Fazal Haq Farooqi has made cricket controversial, no one could take this wicket of Shadab Khan happily in tomorrow's match. Shadab Khan in particular was not too happy about losing his wicket, yet he forgot the controversial incident of losing his wicket as Pakistan eventually won the match. The first ball of the last over of the innings, Fazal Haque Farooqui dropped the wicket of Shadab Khan at the non-strike end without delivery. But Naseem Shah, who was on the strike end, eventually won the team to give Pakistan a crucial win.

No trick or controversy IMO. Nonstriker was dumb enough to leave the crease way too early. Clearly, Shadab was taking an unnecessary advantage and not a small one.

Good to see bowlers now have the courage to run out striker and that should be the norm but so called guardians of cricket cry about the spirit of the game and their lackey rally behind them.

Afghanistan should have won this match. In recent times, they have lost too many close matches. Losing a match even after scoring more than 300 runs in an ODI match is inexcusable. I would still say that Afghanistan is performing better than Ireland, but if they want to stay relevant in international cricket, then they need to perform better than this. Until that happens, they will be considered as a tier-2 test nation, at a level that is much below weaker full member nations such as Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and West Indies.

Afghanistan lost even after doing a Mankad runout. They are only good while playing against Pakistan and there performance against top teams like Australia, NZ and England is still way below average. Majority of Afghanistan cricketers have started cricket in Pakistan before getting selected for Afghanistan. The attitude of Afghanistan players towards is very aggressive and that's something hard to digest.

Afghanistan played very hard in the second match although they lost the first match unfortunately but in the second match they settled the game very well but Pakistan defended themselves against their strong attack and won the match. So looking at Pakistan's great performance, it is assumed that they will win the third match but it is not a guarantee. Afghanistan have a lot of effort and they can attack Pakistan deeper in the third match but it is doubtful how much it can happen. But it can be assumed that Afghanistan will not be able to overtake Pakistan in this ODI match

Pakistan won the 2nd ODI of cricket against Afghanistan but some people say, Afghanistan needs to win this match because they gave the target of 300 in losing 5 wickets. The other side Pakistan lost 9 wickets but Pakistan won the match so this is right but Pakistan's batsman partnership is too good, Imam ul Haq and Babar Azam's partnership score is 118 which helped to win Pakistan. So, what do you think about who wins the third ODI between Pakistan and Afghanistan?

I think Pakistan will win the third match as well .Because their bowlers preform very well in bowling and when it come to batting ,thier bowlers also do very well in batting.This is the last match between Pakistan and Afghanistan and I think this time Afghanistan will try their best to win this match.If talking about the first match, the prefromance of Pakistan batsman was very poor. But they won because their batsman do not come under the pressure and play with cool mind.

Afghanistan played very badly in the first ODI but they came in the second ODI and gave Pakistan a target of 300 runs which is quite a good target. But Pakistan played well and surpassed that target to win the second ODI match so their performance looks like they can win the third match as well. But Pakistan won't have to bear any pressure to win the third match as even if they don't win the third match there will be many more than Afghanistan as Pakistan have won both the last two matches.

Somehow against Pakistan, Afghanistan manages to bring out its best and worst brain fade moments at the same time. that's why these 2 teams produce nice thrillers quite regularly. Pakistan also plays a big role in it by playing some village cricket.

Overall it's good that we are seeing a fair amount of rivalries in the subcontinent. Pak vs Ind, Pak vs Afg, SL vs Ban (Naagin dance), or in some extent Ind vs Ban. These match-ups will provide blockbusters from time to time.

The parts that I highlighted made me laugh out loud. Pakistan bowling improved a lot, but their batting is still medicore while Afghanistan are the new chokers in the world of cricket these days.

Also, I remember the whole controversy between Lanka and Bongs which was hilarious to say the least.

Well, the way they messed up the straightforward chase with classic trademark collapse, including Rizwan's run out so I think it fits the bill nicely Grin

That Nagin Dance controversy changed things, at least from the Lankan's point of view. All thanks to the Pathetic behavior of the Bong team. Don't forget some players even vandalized the changing room by breaking windows on live cameras.

What A Match !!

Yes of course that was an interesting match. Afghanistan tried well. But unfortunately they were close to the victory but they failed to chase the target. Afghanistan made 300 runs but the target was 302. And now the Pakistan won the series. There is the last match which will be played tomorrow. And I hope Pakistan will win again.

Yesterday match was very competitive. For both Afghanistan and Pakistan, it was a tense affair towards the end of the game. By the observation of the entire match, we can say if Afghanistan could have scored a few more runs they might have won the match. We saw that Pakistan needed 49.5 overs to win with only 1 wicket in hand. I would say that even if Afghanistan lost the match, they deserved to be applauded. I thought that Afghanistan might not be able to put up any resistance against Pakistan ‍any match. But they dispelled those fears in the 2nd match of the series. Hope they will fight hard and try to win in the last match of the series.

So, what do you think about who wins the third ODI between Pakistan and Afghanistan?

It's not a big concern that who will win the 3rd ODI. As i mentioned before also that for Pakistan, the job is done and they have won the series.

The Afghanistan team would ideally want to win this match and have a winning moment in the series. It's always bad to lose a series with 3-0 as compared to 2-1.

In case you are betting, i am afraid that's a tough bet as Pakistan might not take this match seriously or rest some of the key players.

In yesterday's match, history has been repeated. Naseem Shah is the man of the match with no bowling performance, he is the man of the match because of batting. In Asia Cup 2022 Naseem Shah was the man of the match with no bowling performance, he was the man of the match because of his batting against Afghanistan, and last time Fazalhaq Farooqi was in the bowling and Naseem Shah was batting, the same this time
Fazalhaq Farooqi is in the bowling and Naseem Shah is batting, last time Naseem hit 2 sixes but yesterday Naseem hit 1 six and 1 four, then Pakistan won the match and after the match, Naseem showed their aggressiveness to the Afghanistan players.

Did you expect Pakistan to win when they needed almost 12 runs per over and not too many wickets in hand? I placed a $18 bet against Afghanistan, hoping that Pakistan would win the match. I got some hope when Shadab Khan hit a four and a six in the 49th over. But my fear was Naseem Shah won't be able to give him a strike. The most hated thing in this match is Farooqi Mankaded Shadab Khan.

As everyone can see now, I was wrong about Naseem Shah. This is the 2nd time he did it for Pakistan (or it could be more). It was outstanding from him. I did not expect Pakistan to win after Shadab Khan's wicket. BTW, Congrats team Pakistan!

Yes it must be admitted that Afghanistan played very well. But Afghanistan played so well but could not win the match, it is sad for Afghanistan team. Pakistan team players are not good at bowling site, but they have excellent performance in batting. After watching Afghanistan's batting performance, I gave up hope of Pakistan winning. And I thought that Pakistan would lose this match by a huge margin against Afghanistan. But Pakistan won by one wicket due to the great performance of Pakistan team batsmen. But this match was a competitive match. I am very happy to enjoy such a match

In afghanistan vs Pakistan match has been fantastic match. Both team played in this second ODI. Pakistan team well played and Pakistan batsmen chased 300 runs to win. It is not too easy because Afghanistan bowling line is very strong. There has world famous bowling Mohammad Rashid. But i also think Afghanistan bating line is normal then Pakistani bating line.

Waoo it was so much drama and excitement especially in last over when things for Pakistan are looking almost finished but the horrible dream for Afghanistan name Naseem Shah alway teased them hardly just like previous, at one moment things were completely reminding me the last moment of Asia cup because situation were completely same when Naseem were on crease and Pakistan required 11 runs in last over against farooqi, after dismissal of shadab I taught game is over for Pak but surprisingly it's not.
No doubt Afghanistan batter were on fire today, they scored one of highest target with some spectacular partnerships but in last the Fazal Haq farooqi ruined entire things just like previous, hope he will learn from his mistakes or team should transfer his over to second last over of the match..

Afghanistan fought back well in this match and they were just unlucky not to make it in the end. Pakistan won the match by just 1 wicket. Again it was Shadab Khan who came to their rescue at the end scoring 48 runs in only 35 balls. This was a very good strike rate in the context of the match and also this was a ODI and not a T20 match.

Tomorrow we will have the third and the last game of the series, however, the result of this won't be of much concern to the Pakistan team as they have already won the series.

In Afghanistan vs Pakistan today 2nd ODI match, Afghanistan came out to bat first and set a target of 300 runs in 50 overs. After some time, Pakistan will come out to bat. If Pakistan wants to win this match, Pakistan team will have to perform well in batting. Pakistan team Well done in the bowling line for which Afghanistan team could not give much target of runs. Shaheen Afridi of Pakistan team bowled 10 overs and took 2 wickets with 58 runs.

In this match Afghanistan batsmen batting amazingly set a high total of 301 runs in 50 Overs. From Afghanistan Rahmanullah Gurbaz brilliant 151 runs in 151 balls and Ibrahim Zadran scored 80 runs in 101 balls he is just 20 runs short of his well deserved century. Pakistan bowlers struggling to get wickets only Shaheen Shah Afradi picks up 2 Wickets by just giving 58 runs in 10 Overs. Now Pakistan currently scores 173 runs in loss of 2 wickets in 32 Overs. They Need 128 runs in 18 overs to win this match and Series and 8 wickets in hand. Imam ul Haq batting beautifully playing at 70 runs not out and Muhammad Rizwan is playing at 2 not out. I think Pakistan will win this match if this Partnership is more than 50 runs.

In today's match, Afghanistan has managed to set up a good score. They are currently in a favorable position in the ongoing match but the match outcome is still uncertain because Pakistani batsmen can destructive at any moment. Moreover, the required run rate isn't excessively high either. At this time, Pakistan needs 64 runs off 38 balls, and according to the required run rate, they need about 10 runs per over. This doesn't seem too difficult since Pakistan still has 4 wickets in hand. Shadab Khan and Iftikhar Ahmed both trying to make good partnership, if Afghanistan can pick up them early then good things will be in store for them in this match.

Congratulations to Pakistan for winning 2nd ODI by 1 wicket What a nail biting match Pakistan hold their nerve in the final 50th over and won this match and series 2-0 lead in the ODI series against Afghanistan. The match of the match is Shabad Khan for his match winning inning 48 runs in 35 balls with 3 Fours and 1 Six. Pakistan team chased down the 302 target in 49.5 overs with loss of 9 wickets. Imam ul Haq had a brilliant batting performance of 91 runs in 105 balls Unfortunately he missed his well deserved century by just 9 runs short Babar Azam also scored fifty. The man of the moment is Naseem Shah 10 runs unbeaten in just 5 balls and scored winning runs to make a lead of 2-0 in the Series.

Pakistan team confirmed the series win by winning the first two matches. I saw the first match we were completely one sided. Afghanistan lost all their wickets for just 59 runs. Afghanistan conceded a humiliating defeat.
In the second match, Afghanistan's two openers batted brilliantly. Afghanistan's collection from the opening pair was 227 runs. Afghanistan set a target of 301 runs. Even then, the team's chances of winning were slim. The performance of Pakistan's top order was good enough. But the performance of Pakistan's middle order players was poor. So I thought maybe Pakistan is going to be defeated. But Shadab Khan's brilliant batting helped Pakistan to win the match.

After winning the 2nd ODI against Afghanistan yet again Pakistan became the no 1 ODI team under Babar Azam captaincy It's a great achievement for the Pakistan Cricket Team. Last Night victory member the Asia Cup match Pakistan vs Afghanistan where Naseem hit 2 six and won a match for Pakistan. The same thing happened in the 2nd Odi Naseem Shah hist 2 fours and won the match. Pakistan won this match by only 1 wicket and 1 ball left only in the last over Pak needed 11 runs in 6 balls after the Runout of Shabad Khan the whole responsibility is on the shoulder of Naseem Shah he played very sensible and finished the match in 5 balls Naseem shah is just like Afraid. Afghanistan batting performance is great score of 300 is a big Total but the bowling unit failed to win this match at the last moment I think it hurts Afghanistan.

Yesterday's match saw 600+ runs in two innings at the same venue where the first match between Afghanistan and Pakistan was played. To say that Afghanistan played well enough in yesterday's match and Afghanistan's opener Gurbaz scored 151 runs which went completely in vain in Afghanistan's defeat. Although Afghanistan's chances of winning the match were looking up late in yesterday's match but Naseem Shah's unbeaten ten runs ruined those chances. However, Pakistan's take on the series is truly commendable and the final match is just waiting for Pakistan to be officially whitewashed.

The final overs are often chaotic for Afghanistan. Naseem Shah played unbelievable, turning into Afghanistan's biggest nightmare. This is the second time he has led Pakistan to victory in a close match against Afghanistan. Congratulations to Pakistan Cricket for confirming the series win.

Pakistan team reached the peak of victory against Afghanistan but it is very sad. Because in this match Afghanistan performed very well and batsman Gurbaz he performed well but failed to take the team to victory. Because the bowling point of Afghanistan did not perform well, and if Abdur Rahman had done a little better bowling performance and the run rate would have come down, Afghanistan would have won. Because here only one to two ball margin is won. Abdur Rahman got one wicket with 83 runs in 10 overs which is a huge loss for the team as the run rate is 8.3 per over. But I think with this style of bowling, Afghanistan is bound to lose.
