England defeated Pakistan by 169 to take an unbeatable lead of 3-0 at Nottingham in the five-match ODI series.
The hosts had amassed a world record score of 444/3 in their 50 overs thanks to Alex Hales’ knock of 171 runs. Pakistan were dismissed after scoring 275 runs in 42.4 overs.
Twitter users criticized the team, management and captain Azhar Ali for the team’s performance in the crucial game.
If #Amir can wack a 22 ball 50 at #11 what are the top batsmen selected for? picking cherries with strawberry & cream? #PakvsEng

Tiredness being used as an excuse. Hang on a second, guy (Amir) who’s played all Tests & ODIs still bowling & batting his heart out #EngvPak — Malik Ijaz (@Malik_Cricketv) August 31, 2016
Not Azhar Ali’s or Wahab Riaz’s fault.They tried their best but they don’t have the material to compete. We need better players #ENGvPAK

Poor Azhar Ali is just too decent for the unabashed brutalities of modern-day limited overs cricket. He should’ve been on a vacation. — NadeemFarooqParacha (@NadeemfParacha) August 30, 2016
What are the odds of #AzharAli resigning mid innings (Innings Break)? OR Heading straight to the airport? #ENGVPAK

I saw a dream that Pakistan won yesterday’s match. It was a beautiful dream. And I just realized a few minutes ago that it was a dream.
