Want to see ball tracker for that LBW.
No way that was missing
Would have been a Watto

Rahul had a very similar strike rate to start his innings.S/R of 38 in this innings chasing 330+...great innings...
Show some intent jeez!
Clearly the plan was to see through two of the world's best ODI bowlers and cash in elsewhere. Thought that was pretty obvious.

Look at their batting attack beyond Azam. They couldn't afford to lose Imam early. Unfortunately they did anyway.You can see a bowler off but use some intent, use a straight bat, get it into the gaps, should comfortably in the first 10 be getting 4.5 an over as an absolute bare minimum.
We thought Warner's innings was bad..
Depends how long they're in for.Very confusing. Slow S/R for openers is OK or not?

He was out there for 6x as many balls and saw through the new bowlers. If he had shown intent after Bumrah and Kumar were out of the attack it'd have been fine. He didn't.Cheers. I just remember an aussie bloke getting hammered for a low s/r against these same bowlers.
You also often see the English batting line-ups rolled for 200. That strategy isn't for everyone and it's still yet to be seen whether it will win a World Cup. Virtually meaningless how they play if they don't win the World Cup.I'm sorry but a bloke going at under 40 S/R in a ODI when you can go over the top early isn't great. Would you see the Englaand openers going at under 40? If the batting depth is an issue, play an extra bat. I don't think their batting is bad anyway, Hafeez and Malik are very solid.

Both Hafeez and Malik average <35. I wouldn't be confident if they needed to make lots of runs.
You seem to have this misconception that you have to approach your innings like England. Not every team has England's aggressive batsmen. Every team is going to structure their innings differently.That's the gamble you take, the England side also score a lot more 340+ scores. You aren't winning this tournament plodding along to 280 at a max. You sort of have to push it early and get on with it.
If Malik and Hafeez stay in especially Hafeez who is in form, they are dangerous.

Hafeez's form is good. Not that great that I'd have much confidence in him though. They need wickets in hand if they want to chase this down.
Why? You can only work with what you've got. Play to your strengths. Don't just copy other good teams.To win the tournament (in these conditions) you need to be similar to England, or India.
You harp on about how we have to attack early yet continue to defend our opener that has one of the lower strike rates in the whole tournament lol. I disagree anyway. Our wins in India showed our best chance is by structuring the innings rather than just throwing the bat. That's how we'll win. For the most part, that's what we've been doing. But there is room for improvement.We have the right way too with Warner and Finch even though you don't see it. You need a strong first powerplay. There is a good reason those three sides and you can add NZ who have Guptill, etc up the top...there is a reason they are the top 4 by a mile.

Wouldn't surprise me if England make the final and get rolled for 250 tbh.
Hahaha, what? What do you base this on?If you don't try and be similar to the top 4, you are only going to be a middling team.
They've also been facing much worse bowlers. Babar is playing well though.Been so much better once Babar came in.
Much better!
