These 2 don’t need to do anything stupid.

Nice shot there from Babar. Love watching him bat.

Constantly at the STD clinic.
NZ in the driving seat here. RRR over 6 already. Batting will only become tougher for every wicket.
Agreed but Sarfraz does play spin pretty well and this is a spinning paradise.

BTW, what made Shane Warne talk so highly of Shadab Hussein?

EDIT: driving seat is a bit of an exaggeration! I think Kiwis still in it though.

Are we watching the same match? They are struggling to score.
They weren't making it easy, but they've settled in now and the RRR has always been in Pakistan's hands. Run a ball in the last 10 is easy

Is the library the only worthy monument they could find for Birmingham?

19 runs off the last two overs and the pressure is off. Should be easy from now, these two look well settled

Rashid is crap - I just looked it up, he's played 4 matches against India and averages 33.

I'd take a pitch like this every day of the week if I were India.
Ofcourse. But alas the pitch for England game is the covered one.

Impressive win by Pak. England will definitely need to win both of their games now. Pak will beat Bangladesh if it is a must win game for qualification.

Excellent, Pakistan. At least they're some fight and application now, unlike the likes of South Africa and West Indies (:nervous:)

They've made an extremely tough chase look easy in the end.

Babar deserves a ton here, managed the chase to perfection.

Why did it take so long to get Haris in the side?!
