  1. Cry more🤣🤣🤣🤡🤡🤡

  2. what do you mean "take aim at", he is right !

  3. Keep loosing nd be proud😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

  4. Don't agree with the notion that Pakistan were the better team throughout the test match, but I think this is a pretty good presser from Hafeez. He defended his players, took a bit of responsibility for the slip arrangements, and brought up some pretty valid points about the outdated technology systems in place.

  5. Hafeez is having excuses to justify his existence and position. What do you mean by inconsistent Umpiring because it did not go in your favor? Neutral Umpiring and also third umpiring. Australia played under tough overcast conditions. Australia bowled under the sun ( Certainly better conditions to bat). Australia scored more than Pakistan in both the innings. The leadership of Cummins was extraordinary. So how Pakistan played better?

  6. Would he take that decision if it was an Australian player? You betcha he would. Life membership coming up for him in the lords long room. He’ll fit right in with those whining people.

  7. Every team gets some bad decision. It is despite all such odd things. Rules are same for both the teams. The Australians never give-up attitude also helps. 52 extras coneeded by Pak team is horrible and unpardonable

  8. Australia played very well 😊

  9. What intent! Pakistan can't defeat Australia in this decade so chup chaap baitto 🤣🤣🤣

  10. Stop moaning if you cannot catch a ball, if you misfield and if you cannot bat for two innings you will lose. Simple facts.

  11. Watch some premier league with VAR and you'll soon realise cricket on/off field umpires are very consistent and fair

  12. It was a great series, love the Aussies versus the Pakistani team. Pakistan played well against the world test champions. The technology maybe inconsistent but neither team gained an advantage. It's a pity the Pakistani Captain had to whinge, it lowered what was an excellent competitive series. Both teams showed respect, humility, and good humour. Both teams were well supported well by the crowds.

  13. "Inconsistent umpiring" ??? You lost because your bowlers were inacurate, and when they weren't, your slips didnt take thier ctaches.

  14. Be that as it may, Yes, there wasn't 100% conclusive evidence that Rizwan was OUT for the 3rd umpire to overturn the on-field umpire's initial NO call. Not siding with Hafeez's overall assessment of the game result here folks, but, Rizwan could have taken the game away from us Aussies.
    The better team won in the end and rightfully so.

  15. I can see his point regarding LBW. Tennis doesn’t seem to have an issue calling the ball out by 1mm and arguably there is more variance in that given the tennis ball compresses and it has fur etc…. It’s either hitting the stumps or it isn’t? Surely the technology has improved over the last 10 years but the interpretation hasn’t.

  16. Cmon Aussie Cmon ………. Cry me a river powder puff I hope we stick it to 'em in the 3rd too 🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘

  17. Pakistan, next time pl send someone sensible. This loss is due to "technology"? Gimme a break! There was a clear day light between bat and pad when Cummins was declared out. Even the spike was seen after ball passed the bat. Does Hafeez care to mention that? Aussie would have piled on 400+ and game would have been done and dusted! 👍

  18. Pakistan always questions umpiring when they loose😂😂😂😂

  20. Mr. Hafeez is actually saying that the wrong decisions of the umpires have cost Pakistan a failure. Two out of the umpires' calls on Marsh and Smith were not given, resulting in them scoring 200 runs. This has had a negative impact against Pakistan. Additionally, when Imam ul Haq was given out wrongly by the umpire on an umpire's call, Pakistan lost another 50 runs. In total, there was a 250-run deficit caused by wrong umpiring. These biased, wrong, and silly decisions by the umpire have caused Pakistan this defeat.
