[iZeeshan]

Wow, quite some fielding there!

 

[SUPERSAMI]

Awesome stop by Malik, thats what Pak need.

 

[DesiMD]

NAVED is bowling so bad rite now...and asif just as good

 

[SUPERSAMI]

Beautiful delivery to beat Smith, Asif is awesome!

 

[DesiMD]

i have to keep saying that ASIF is incredible

 

[SUPERSAMI]

Last ball goes for 4, nazar lug gayee

Gul is already nearly fit

 

[DesiMD]

lolz...ziada tareef hogai sahyed...
but he's still the best

 

[sharuk]

Rana needs to be shot

 

[SUPERSAMI]

More pies from Rana, the 4 brings up Saf's 50

You a doctor, DesiMD?
Where and what do you practice?

 

[Master Blaster]

8.6 Asif to Smith, FOUR!!, fullish delivery on the middle and leg, Smith comes on the frontfoot and whips it away to backward square leg for four, neat roll of the wrists on that shot

Good shot by smith.

50 up for saffers.

South Africa: 52/0 (9.2 Ovs)

 

[DesiMD]

very bad bowling by this man

 

[PlanetPakistan]

Last ball goes for 4, nazar lug gayee

let's hope M Sami koo bhee ais pent coat may nazr na lag jayay.

 

[DesiMD]

Smith Is On Fire!

 

[DesiMD]

let's hope M Sami koo bhee ais pent coat may nazr na lag jayay.

sami shayed aaj iss se bhi bura pitay...

 

[darkmoon459]

61 runs after 10over ,six off rana's last ball

 

[sharuk]

Rana should be shot

 

[SUPERSAMI]

let's hope M Sami koo bhee ais pent coat may nazr na lag jayay.

Assee batein socho be mut, and Rana spanked for a 6 by AB.

 

[PlanetPakistan]

sami shayed aaj iss se bhi bura pitay...

yea....aus koo chaheyee kay kum say kum ainak too autar day!

 

[Easa]

It looks a totally different game when Asif has the ball in his hand, and when de Villiers is batting.

 

[sajad mohammed]

dont worry lads as soon as shoaib and gul are back, then rana and sami are out

 

[SUPERSAMI]

Rana's figures: 5 overs 42 runs

 

[PlanetPakistan]

Darn....Rana phantee khana!!!

 

[Master Blaster]

Rana gave 12 runs in his last over............. he needs to be changed............

South Africa: 59/0 (10.0 Ovs)
AB de Villiers 17(31)
Graeme Smith* 37(29)

 

[DesiMD]

runs coming ez for RSA

 

[Easa]

de Villiers hits a vicious SIX to end it.

 

[PlanetPakistan]

Just a brilliant shot

9.6 Naved-ul-Hasan to de Villiers, SIX, okay, where'd he pull that from! Fractionally short outside off stump and in a flash he slams that, on one leg and on the swivel, superbly over deep backward square leg for a flat six

 

[SUPERSAMI]

Ab has no clue against Asif

 

[mooz]

this game reminds me a little(actually a lot) of the 20/20 game. SO much for those who were saying the 20/20 is completely different from 50 over a side cricket.

 

[DesiMD]

wats happening???...cricinfo is not updating...

 

[Easa]

Rana needs to be taken of IMMEDIATELY.

 

[CrickFan]

Have switched over to the other match .. Kiwis are doing well

 

[Obsessed_in_a_good_way]

God ... this is a masacre. Rana has given away 24 in his last two overs. Maybe we should NOT go for the powerplay rightaway ... wait a couple of overs.

 

[Saqib_Boss_Man]

what is RAna doing out there, come on asif get a wicket.

 

[CricketBuff]

Rana trying very hard to get out of WC selection.

 

[SUPERSAMI]

Afridi look so weird without hair and just 1 of the over, great bowling by Asif

 

[PlanetPakistan]

Ab has no clue against Asif

AB ko ASif kee bowling kee ABC bhee niehie semag athee!

 

[dirk diggler]

only 10 overs played and Rana has contived to take the game away fron us

 

[iZeeshan]

Sami on, come on lad!

 

[darkmoon459]

Sami coming nto attack, lets see if he can bring us a wicket.

 

[SUPERSAMI]

Sami replaces Rana, come on Samster

 

[DesiMD]

i hope pak can win this game even after poor bowling start

 

[PlanetPakistan]

We have not picked a wicket on this tour since the test series!

 

[CricketBuff]

Please keep updating. Thx

 

[Saqib_Boss_Man]

Sami replaces Rana finally

 

[sharuk]

I swear Asif is such a blessing MashAllah you cannot comprehend how much he is helping Pakistan;s cause for the WC now

 

[Saqib_Boss_Man]

62-0 (11)

 

[DesiMD]

asif has bowled a bettter over

 

[DesiMD]

sami not bowling at good line

 

[CrickFan]

Imagine what Pakistani bowling would be without Asif ..

 

[darkmoon459]

nothing different from sami either ,6 off the over.

 

[Saqib_Boss_Man]

sami really needs to sort his line out here

 

[SUPERSAMI]

Good pace, poor line and 6 runs off the over

 

[PlanetPakistan]

Imagine what Pakistani bowling would be without Asif ..

imagine what PAK bowling would be with both Asif, Gul and Shoaib

 

[Saqib_Boss_Man]

4 runs of sami he really need to sort his lenght out here

 

[Easa]

6 from Sami's over.

 

[invincible]

can anyone throw some light on the pitch ?? any grass ?? in favor of batting / bowling ?? good 1st innings score ??

 

[Saqib_Boss_Man]

68-0 (12)

 

[SUPERSAMI]

Great shot by AB, 4 runs

 

[Saqib_Boss_Man]

pakistan needs to get a wicket here

 

[Master Blaster]

Looks like Inzi will use Asif in one go...........he is into his 7th.

South Africa 68/0 (12.1 ov)

 

[Saqib_Boss_Man]

4 smacked

 

[Obsessed_in_a_good_way]

Asif should not be bowling his 7th over ... need to save him for two spells, to try and restore sanity, if needed. It's time to bring in Razzak.

Any movement in the air / off the pitch? Any support for medium pacers?

 

[PlanetPakistan]

can anyone throw some light on the pitch ?? any grass ?? in favor of batting / bowling ??

Batting paradise.

good 1st innings score ??

434.

 

[Saqib_Boss_Man]

[SUPERSAMI]

Sami bowling right around 90mph

 

[Saqib_Boss_Man]

72-0 (13)

 

[CricketBuff]

[SUPERSAMI]

[invincible]

Batting paradise.

[SUPERSAMI]

[SUPERSAMI]

Just 4 runs off the last over, 70/0

 

[PlanetPakistan]

No problem!

 

[iZeeshan]

If we don;t pick up wickets, then they will attack fiercly at the end!

 

[SameerAhmad]

Just one wicket fellas, just one wicket and it changes

Asif is just wonderful though...mashallah!

 

[PlanetPakistan]

153kph by Sami, that was quick!

[DesiMD]
