Happy for Michael Clarke. He stood tall while the rest of his team mates were falling like nine pins. In fact there was a time when Yousuf's Test record of "most runs in a calendar year" was in serious jeopardy.

Sangakarra was quite fantastic during the Aug 2012-Aug 2013 timeline. And I'm sure Kettleborough snapped up the Umpire award on account of some, overall, poor umpiring throughout.

lalala 212 is what Pk will have to chase now in t20. i m not looking for our win here but atleast pk batsmen should show some fight and its better to bowled our for 100 in 10 overs than to play 20 overs for 120-130.but man what a batting performance that was

So now Indian fans all over cricket pages on FB are going nuts. One bad bowling performance and it's enough for them to forget that their team have conceded scores of over 300 on TEN occasions just this year. :fp1:

Anyway. At least we made 100!

I'll sport an avatar of the crowd's choice for a week if we win from here. The batting technique displayed by the usual suspects.......... T20 is proving to be the saving grace for people like these.

Ok so I would just like to take credit for saying Umer Amin cannot handle the pressure of international cricket sometime ago when everyone wanted him to play here. You have to have the it factor which Sharjeel has, even Maqsood is a regular find(he will be the next Umer Akmal).

Sharjeel was awesome.

Btw, Sangakarra: best catch ever?
Hardly the best catch, he himself made a mess of an easy catch.

I say! The end score doesn't show just how toothless our top and middle order batting was.

Usman Khan Shinwari isn't coming back any time soon though. Blame the selectors for ruining a youngster's career by pitching him into the top level with very little domestic experience. Expectedly, he didn't handle the situation very well.

I'd say Pakistan batting did much better than my expectations. Bowling and captaincy was poor. A bowler with the experience of Afridi should complete his quota in these kind of situations. Usman is simply too green to even be considered for an international team let alone be in it. All in all I am not completely disappointed because we showed a bit of fight... We just have to get youngsters who can handle pressure... A batsman who can take singles and hit sixes at the same time...

    BTW, i started Ghost of Tsushima, and it got me hooked within the first couple of minutes. I already know It's gonna be a memorable experience. This is how you make a proper Samurai game. Not that SJW game Ubisoft is making.

    That's still higher than it's total play length. A 5 hour campaign for a $50 game is downright scammy.

    Consoles were my main platform ever since Atari 2500. But now I think it's not worth it as PC especially with DLSS deliver far smoother performance. AW2 on console didn't even had ray tracing and ran below 30fps. Similar issues plagues DD2 on consoled.
    The cross gen era really made people think 60fps would be a new standard lol

    Welp, done with Hellblade 2. Thoroughly disappointed. Such a nothing burger after the unique experience of the first game.

    I have a PS5 but I am not satisfied with the experience. I am currently saving for a 4080 64 GB rig soon. Bit will wait for Pro if performance improves. This gen has been so bad I don't plan on buying consoles anymore for AAA gaming.

    As per WCCF Tech review, Xbox Series X doesn't even maintain a consistent FPS and sometimes drops into the mid-20fps range. That's unacceptable, tbh.

    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.

    Just downloaded my first legit digital PC game on GoG at a discount of $8: Two Point Hospital. The same team behind Theme Hospital Two Point Studios now part of Sega. And I am having more fun than most recent AAA games except of course BG3.

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.
