[feather]

guys i saw an inside edge on that lb shout. was not out i believe.

u were probably the only one than I guess

 

[gfx]

Rao seems ok, though im not convinced his military medium speed will be effective in the subcontinent

 

[Hash]

yeaaaaaaaaahahahahahah

COME ON PAKISTAN!!!!!!!

 

[feather]

damn sehwag bowled by rana!!!

 

[Naz]

Excellent swing bowling from rana mashallah.

Swung most deliveries away and then brought one back in and sehwag beaten all ends up!!!!!

 

[sajjad]

this is the mjor partnership
if one of these guys goes early...pakistan will be totally in command

 

[fair_play]

Bad shot that but good bowling. He was playing for the outswing.

 

[ali kc]

Great start by Pakistan

11-2 SEHWAG N TENDULKAR GONE!!

Cldnt ask for a better start...

 

[Gasherbrum]

feather _ no yaar, hariharan agrees with me

and look at sehwag's reaction there, acting like the ball kept low ... it hit the top of off stump!

 

[MecnunK]

feather you better not be winding me up..all commentry sites frozen...!!

 

[MecnunK]

yes yes yes..Go Pak!!

 

[sajjad]

oooh edged for four
DRAVID LUCKY

 

[sajjad]

15/2 after 5

 

[DesiMD]

mashAllah..pakistan is off to a good start...alhamdolillah

 

[mooze]

what a ball sehwag gone

 

[Gasherbrum]

dravid really lucky, rana bowling well here. 2 good balls to dravid, was looking to play towards leg, 4 through 3rd man!

 

[badxhah]

Rameez is as 2 paced as this pitch.

 

[sajjad]

we need 1 more wkt to really effect this indian lineup

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

dravid lucky early on

 

[feather]

feather you better not be winding me up..all commentry sites frozen...!!

no need for those keep it locked here and you will get all the important news here and the not so important either...

 

[DesiMD]

got lucky there dravid..that he got the 4

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

opening bowlers compliment one another nicely

 

[DesiMD]

inshAllah more wickets will fall

 

[feather]

another lucky edge for dhoni

 

[mooze]

great ball

 

[feather]

Pakistan need to keep the fielding tight here and not give them easy runs..

 

[MecnunK]

it sounded too good to be true!!!

 

[Hash]

judging by the commentary india are v dodgy at the moment

a lot of 'in the airs' a lot of edges a few plays and misses. Inshallah we are looking good.

 

[Oxy]

Confused-radi commentators saying Dhoni/Dravid batting...isnt Sehwag playing?

 

[DesiMD]

Pakistan need to keep the fielding tight here and not give them easy runs..

yep...exactly

 

[feather]

his bowling well if your talking about rao...dhoni just taking his chances thas all..

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

rana bowling really well

 

[Hash]

oxy- sehwag got bowled by rana

india are 26 for 2 after 6.2 overs

 

[Gasherbrum]

rana a tad short here i feel, but dhoni does like it pitched up.

 

[sajjad]

DHONI GONE

 

[MecnunK]

[Mercenary]

[DesiMD]

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

dhoni gone now as well!!!!

 

[ali kc]

Donkie gone!!!

Rana tu cheetaa hai

 

[feather]

Pakistan on fire Inshallah we can finish em of soon

 

[Oxy]

This proves one thing...Asian so called experts no jack about any of the pitches they look at before play starts.

Time and time they get it wrong!

Get Boycott in...

 

[Mercenary]

Veedha is a one-man demolition squad!!

 

[fair_play]

That fuller length, and straighter line I mentioned is working for Rana.

 

[gfx]

LOL
Rana is the fing man
hte guy is such a gargoyle. He wont stop

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

we must keep pressure exerted

 

[MecnunK]

come'on take dravid now and we will do them...well and proper

 

[feather]

oxy good bowling by bowlers as well and pitch offering uneven bounce...

 

[Hash]

WOW!!!! WOW!!! WOW!! WOW!!!! I NEVER EXPECTED THIS START!! PAKISTAN ARE ON FIRE AT THE MOMENT!!!!COME ON!!! 26 FOR 3!!!





\A/ \A/ \A/ \A/

[sajjad]

Dravid plays so well...beautiful shot!
4

 

[Naz]

WAQI WAQI WAQI YOUNIS COMMENTATING!!!!

Get out there Waqar and smash those stumps with those full inswinging yorkers.

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

nice shot by dravid

 

[Gasherbrum]

classy cover drive by dravid, super shot.

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

i agree - bowl rao through or nearly through at start

 

[badxhah]

waqr wid spiky hair ,,,,,

 

[sajjad]

cmon boyz
1 more wkt here

 

[Gasherbrum]

can some one please explain why yuvraj bats ahead of kaif?

 

[badxhah]

arre yaar koi link to do

aray bahi yaha per link poochna mana hai

 

[sajjad]

Rana keeping a good line to Dravid....needs to maintain @ off stump n just outside

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

yuvraj is far worser than kaif IMO, kaif has an abundance of talent

 

[sajjad]

9 gone 33/3
RR abt 3.5

only Kaif and Mongia the batsmen left

 

[Mercenary]

can some one please explain why yuvraj bats ahead of kaif?

same reason almost everyone comes ahead of Younis??

Kaif would have been the ideal compliment with dravid right now

 

[badxhah]

he can follow it ob cricinfo also

 

[sajjad]

plus he is a left hander...so a good idea..since these guys r bowling a good line to the right handers

right decision to send yuvy in ahead of kaif

 

[Hash]

Rana becomes more and more of a legend every time I see him

 

[sajjad]

SHORT and smacked by Dravid....rao bhai
take it easy..patience will play..araam se
