For over 15 minutes, there hasn’t been a scorecard graphic displayed. Instead, the score is manually shown on a scoreboard placed on top of tires. This isn’t the level of presentation one would anticipate from broadcasters of an event as significant as the Cricket World Cup.
Poor start by the Men in Green in their World Cup opener
Pakistan cricket at its best: one minute up, the next minute down, then underground, followed by the grave, hitting rock bottom, and finally reaching the earth’s inner core. There have been 42 dot balls in the Powerplay. The Dutch have taken 11 wickets in their last 5 power plays.
Pakistan’s top order has dominated the broadcast.
Saud Shakeel
Seems in good nick. Preferred over Salman Ali Agha. Seven test matches he has played and in each of the seven tests he scored fifty every time he came to bat. Need that temprament.
Pakistan cricket is insane. This is Saud Shakeel’s first World Cup game, and they’re like, ‘Yeah bro, now it’s 43-3. Let’s see what you’re capable of.
It has been 20 overs now, and viewers cannot see the graphics (score, etc.) of a World Cup Match.
I am pleased with Saud Shakeel’s performance and hope to see Abdullah Shafique included in future matches as an opener.
Saud and Rizwan’s 100+ partnership and their 50s have indeed salvaged the innings after a tough start at 37/3. It must be a relief for you as a Pakistan fan.
