What happened to Maxwell? He had all the talent and should really have been on Buttler's level at this stage of his career.

No idea why they are holding Khawaja back

Shocking that Pakistan are troubling Aussies when they're pitching it full.

The pitch has quickened up.

Btw how many catches has been dropped off Wahab Riaz in the last two WC matches against Australia.

They should send Carey now. Khwaja is pointless in these situations.

Had no idea that Khwaja has been so great in ODIs in 2019 :eek:

This is one of the poorest fielding performances I've ever seen.

You don't watch Pakistan that often then, have always been one of the poorest fielding teams, never shown any sign of improvement either.

Four dropped catches. 15 runs missed on the field(more or less). Don't think it happens regularly.

Pretty sure they dropped 2/3 catches against England last game.

Pretty sure it's been mostly when he's been opening. I think he's been screwed over by Warner & Smith's return
Should have come in after Smith got out.

I do wonder if this Aussie side would work a bit better if one of Finch or Warner came in a bit lower down the order with licence to just tee off. Khawaja is great opener, but lacks the power game to have a role in this stage of the game. As it is, they're very reliant on Maxwell (and perhaps Carey) coming off to turn good scores into great ones.

I think only one of Marsh or Khawaja should play. What happened to that Turner lad who played a superb knock against India. One hit wonder!
