4th ODI | Pakistan vs South Africa | Dubai | 5-11-2010 | SA Innings

[Noork85]

No. What cricket have you been brought up on?

obviously none. was that so hard to figure?

 

[Sledger]

In the top three now. :vicky

Not for me (?)

 

[Deewana Mastana]

1 to JP

Singles with ease

 

[Looney]

"Well the thing to remember is that the world cup is in the sub-continent and you generally have to chase 300 - 350 irrespective of the bowlers you have. Secondly more often than not its the part time bowlers who come off as good as the main bowlers in these conditions. Hence playing with seven batsmen with atleast 1 or 2 who can bowl a bit is the way to go. I don't see Rusty being as great a talent as he is being made out to be. Just an accurate medium pacer who can be torn to shreds by a good batter which unfortunately Pak don't have."

some idiot on cricinfo

 

[Sledger]

obviously none. was that so hard to figure?

It wasn't obvious. Plenty of experienced watchers have the same mentality.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

2 runs to AB

 

[Amjid Javed]

I can see us losing this game by a hefty margin later!

 

[saj001]

Asad needs to release the throw early.

 

[Sledger]

Shafiq can't throw.

 

[ballack13]

asad looking lievely in the field impressed

 

[Maula Jutt]

Not for me (?)

It looks different in different countries.

 

[JibranAnsari]

if ABd stays not out in the powerplay , then its gna be 300

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Some turn for Rehman

 

[ZAK]

181/3 after 37 overs.

 

[Sledger]

Is it rebranded cricIndia in that country?

 

[Amjid Javed]

Pakistan going through the motions in the field as usual!

Afridi is just a clueless skipper in the field as Inzi use to be!

 

[Jo_Don]

steyn is back is he really that dangerous or will we cope

He's okay-ish in ODIs, with an average of 30 and a SR of of 34. But you never know when he'll strike form and start dominating as he has in tests.

He's also played relatively few ODIs - 41. That's the same number of tests that he's played, which is unusual. The general rule is that players usually play about 3x as many ODIs as they do tests.

 

[ballack13]

who said the UAE tour will be for spinners.

they hardly got any wickets

 

[JibranAnsari]

wow some turn

 

[Looney]

get out if you cannot handle us Duminy

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Shafiq can't throw.

What can he throw then?

 

[TigerJat]

there seems to be bounce in the wicket

 

[saj001]

I can see us losing this game by a hefty margin later!

and then win the meaningless last ODI.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Rehman 10-0-39-0

 

[MRSN]

[JibranAnsari]

very very good spell

 

[JellyBro]

youngster getting some sharp turn on this wicket

 

[Deewana Mastana]

and then win the meaningless last ODI.

By a hefty margin! We're good at dead rubbers!

 

[Newton_fan]

Great bowling Abdur Rehman

10 overs 39 runs 0 wickets

 

[Sledger]

0-39 in 10 overs for youngster. Not bad, but he should have taken wickets on this track tbh.

 

[Looney]

[usmiunique]

Abcd hasnt hit any boundaries!!!! Pakistani batsman LEARN!!!!

 

[Maula Jutt]

Is it rebranded cricIndia in that country?

I will not be surprised one bit.

Btw, here in Pak, it's the third one. Looks like we are supposed to be more excited about India's upper hand and the SL's magical control on weather.

 

[taxzu]

Well bowled rehman. 39 in ten overs. If there was better keeper his stats would have been 32/1 in ten overs.

 

[Eagle_Eye]

No boundaries off Rehman's spell.... Very respectable

He can bat a bit as well

 

[Sledger]

Need wicket plz.

 

[Amjid Javed]

End of tidy spelll from Rehman!

 

[ballack13]

[Sledger]

Pakistan batsmen look very nervous lol.

 

[ballack13]

[JibranAnsari]
