[nufc]

loose start by gul here... 9 runs off his first three balls now followed by a play and a miss

 

[Sparhawk]

Tharanga run out, good start from pakistan. Whats the pitch looking like anyone?

There is some movement in the pitch and a slightly uneven bounce.. but overall not bad for batting.

he is not fielding in the gully, cuz i just looked outside of my window and couldn't see him )

 

[Atif]

umar gul has lost the plot

 

[NeVerMind]

Gul is proving expensive and Asif is having one over too much to bowl. Give the guy a rest!

 

[Sparhawk]

Jayawardene acting like bug stuff, take him out asif!!!

 

[Saqs]

he is not fielding in the gully, cuz i just looked outside of my window and couldn't see him )

Gone, Gul bowled Chamara on 28, its 61 for 3.

 

[Sparhawk]

[thurkeebaba]

i wonder whats Afridi doing in the field.. i guess his mind is some where else

[corneredtiger92]

what pace is Gul bowling at?

 

[Bailan]

SL nearly 4 rpo ...

 

[the Great Khan]

[Saqs]

15.6 Umar Gul to Silva, no run
15.6 Umar Gul to Kapugedera, OUT, Slower ball from Gul, Kapugedera tries to loft straight but gets a big inside edge onto his stumps. Clever change of pace from Gul and that does the trick
CK Kapugedera b Umar Gul 28 (40b 4x4 0x6) SR: 70.00
15.6 Umar Gul to Kapugedera, OUT, Slower ball from Gul, Kapugedera tries to loft straight but gets a big inside edge onto his stumps. Clever change of pace from Gul and that does the trick
CK Kapugedera b Umar Gul 28 (40b 4x4 0x6) SR: 70.00
15.5 Umar Gul to DPMD Jayawardene, 1 leg bye, Leg bye onto the leg side
15.4 Umar Gul to DPMD Jayawardene, no run, Tries to play to leg but misses and hits his pads
15.3 Umar Gul to Kapugedera, 1 run
15.2 Umar Gul to Kapugedera, no run, on the middle and leg stump line, turned away to mid-wicket
15.1 Umar Gul to Kapugedera, no run, punched away on the back-foot to cover


cricinfo's gone nuts

 

[Saqs]

umar gul - 29 matches with 35 wkts?..
i could have sworn he had more than 35?

 

[tauseefm]

what makes you say that?

well, he could even touch the ball on both occasion rather then catching it.... both occasion his reaction was that he totally miss judged the ball or didn't even see it coming

 

[Salman]

90.2 from Sami

fastest 146 KHP.. Line and lenght is excellent

 

[Atif]

yes its on ary uk

 

[Monsee]

Wow, Asif bowled 8 overs on the trott...Malik is a dheela captain who does not know how to use his fast bowlers and is trying to run his best bowler in to the ground...

Wonder where have I heard this before about someone else

 

[ghias]

Hohahahaha, Mahela gone Bowl Gul catch Kami

 

[HAFRIDI]

mahela gone!!

 

[HAFRIDI]

90.2 from Sami

fastest 146 KHP.. Line and lenght is excellent

yes he has been bowling superb, although stats dont suggest this

 

[Saqs]

mahela gone
gul strikes again

 

[Sean]

Kapugedera last man to go. He was out for 28. Bowled by Gul.
Currently 3/72 as another wicke falls!
Jayawardene is out caught. Caught behind by Akmal for 18. Gul gets another.
4/72.

 

[UJ]

Gul coming back strong ...72/4

 

[Saqs]

with no more arnold, not much left after dilshan is there

 

[shoaib]

two key men in for Lanka now...one more wicket and it could be trouble for the Lankans.

 

[SameerM]

"simple catch taken by akmal"

Nothing simple for akmal.. every catch is 50/50 !!

 

[12thMan]

Popeye to bowl starts with a 76 mph
no spinner yet
Waqar approves of Malik's captaincy

 

[the Great Khan]

looks like our spinner razzaq is on now..is this on ARY UK?

 

[12thMan]

Rambo and Waqar talking. BuTTTa finally they start talking about samething and not going on their own

 

[Faisal Akhtar]

Afridi is the most over rated fielder in the team. 2 catches, didnt see either.

 

[snazir6]

Akmal is not that bad pravu

 

[dinakar]

I think Pak can get them under 200. such a target wouldn't trouble Pakistan considering there is no Vaas and Murali in the Lankan lineup..

 

[12thMan]

SL 80-4 after 21 overs

 

[Sean]

Mmm. I have a crappy crappy stream. It buffers for 1 minute, then shows 10 seconds of stream, then buffers for another minute, then shows another 10 seconds. I don't know why I bother.

 

[Faisal Akhtar]

5 runs, no backing ........... Salman Butt too slow to get behind the stumps.

 

[12thMan]

overthrow goes for four. Malik tries for direct hit. 5 runs on that ball. the throw was far away from the wicket

 

[kayanni]

hows malik doing a skipper in terms of fielding positions etc

 

[Faisal Akhtar]

Gul's bowling a good spell, trying all sorts.

 

[Faisal Akhtar]

hows malik doing a skipper in terms of fielding positions etc

Well he's not got a slip with the Sri Lankans struggling.

 

[Faisal Akhtar]

4 for Dilshan, Razzaq serves one of his pies.

 

[HAFRIDI]

Well he's not got a slip with the Sri Lankans struggling.

he's got a lot to learn, he will learn in time

 

[Faisal Akhtar]

End of 23rd over.

Razzaq just going thru the motions of bowling.

91/4.

 

[waqar_ahmad]

i think they should have played najaf shah in place of Abdul Razzaq. he is taking his place in the team for granted

 

[Faisal Akhtar]

he's got a lot to learn, he will learn in time

Lets just hope he does.

 

[Faisal Akhtar]

Dilshan needs a big one, hes due.

 

[Faisal Akhtar]

Under-edge for 4, goes thru Akmals legs!

 

[12thMan]

SL 96-4 after 24 overs

 

[Faisal Akhtar]

In the other match Collingwood brings up his century. Its only his 4th, wow i thawt he had more.

 

[Faisal Akhtar]

Afridi on now.

 

[12thMan]

spinner brought on. Afridi to bowl.

 

[Sean]

Hafridi and Easa do a little dance as Afridi comes in to the attack.

 

[Faisal Akhtar]

Short ball, 4 runs........ Silva quick on his feet there.
