6th ODI: New Dehli - 1st inning discussion thread [16/04/05]

[ali kc]

I just got back from work...

Pakistan in a good position to make 300+ .. INSHALLAH!!

What did they say a good score on this pitch be?

Is the pitch gona help us later on?

 

[Hydro]

3
from 16 makes hafeez look prolific

 

[Officer Barbrady]

Agarkar was bowling well swinging it into the batsmen.

 

[Hash]

whenever India bat first the commentators say the pitch will get harder to bat 2nd innings

they don't seem to say it when we bat though.

wonder why.

 

[Gasherbrum]

nothing a few boundrys won't fix, but another good one for india here.

 

[Naz]

Have to score at 10 runs an over from here as there is wickets in hand.

 

[Imy]

pakistan should ask to replace the ball and say its hard to see like the indians and aussies do

 

[Hydro]

bad mistake for MYk to come in at this stage

runs ahs dropped significantly

 

[Khalil]

YK lokks pathetic and I am afraid that he may have just given the game to India. Those responsible for sending him before Razzak and Akmal must take the responsibility

 

[Officer Barbrady]

Shastri said so a couple of minutes back.

 

[Gasherbrum]

ball swinging around here.

 

[Blistering Barnacle]

YK putting pressure on Inzi to hit out now.

 

[Hydro]

in last 3 overs we socrted 4 runs courtesy of the legend of MYK

 

[Gasherbrum]

lovely shot, 4 from younis straight

 

[Hash]

YK hits a 4!!!!!

 

[Hydro]

better over

 

[badxhah]

Current Partnership: 9 runs, 3.0 overs, RR: 3.00

this is also the first time the RR is sliped to 5...?

 

[MIG]

YK picking up his scoring rate now - no need to panic here

 

[Hash]

209 for 4 from 39 overs

 

[Khalil]

This is one time when I am wishing for a Pakistani wicket. I just hope that YK looses his wicket

 

[badxhah]

prbbly if we dont win this one MYK will be made the target,,,

 

[Hydro]

39.1 Nehra to Inzamam, no run, moved from good length, Inzy looks to run it down and Inzy beaten completely

MYk stupid innings is putting too much presure on inzi

 

[tahaqureshi]

another dot ball by YK..wats he doing????

 

[Mercenary]

i cant count the number of times in ODI's i've been sitting there thinking.

GET out YOUNIS!!

 

[ali kc]

Younis Khan 9 in 22 balls?!?! *** is he doing..

 

[Hydro]

MYk wanyts to play the flimming anchor rools when hes rubbish at it

 

[tahaqureshi]

last ten overs we CAN make 80-100 runs..so if we get 220 by 40..we have defo chances of 300 plus

 

[Gasherbrum]

212/4 after 40

 

[MIG]

Reminds me of Gangulys innnings... but could it be that the pitch is difficult to bat on ?

 

[tahaqureshi]

then how did iniz/malik/yoyo play so fast?

but it is possible that the pitch is deteriorating NOW..

 

[Bailan]

I would like to see Younis Khan go berserk .... if it works great ... otherwise we will have razzaq coming in.

 

[Hydro]

and remmeber wat gangulys innings did to the indians it messed them up

2 decisions pakistan will lose on so far yoyo not out run out

and sending MYK in

 

[tahaqureshi]

YK should now just hit and screw his average..if he makes at 150-200 strikerate..we'll be in driving seat and he wont be haunted anymore

 

[Bailan]

Dropped .... woooppie dopidi doooo

 

[Blistering Barnacle]

We have Akmal and Razzaq and even Rana to come, YK should go for his shots not defend with 10 overs left.

 

[tahaqureshi]

ball changed..good for us?

 

[Officer Barbrady]

\A/ Ball changed

 

[Mercenary]

razzaq would have loved to face the seamers but instead Younis is eating up their overs!!

 

[Waseem]

rr down to 5.3 ....... it has been WORST 30-40 overs by pak by miles...............Younis Khan better make up for this now............PATHETIC BATTING by Younis...he better make up for all that now or get out.

 

[tahaqureshi]

can u guys pls stop saying negative stuff? it really depresses me..

 

[tahaqureshi]

FOUR!!!!!

 

[zushy_786]

YK gets lucky four muwahhhhhh !

 

[Gasherbrum]

4 well played younis, smart shot, really fine.

ball has been changed boys, so it'll become easier now, not as much swing

 

[Hydro]

he betetr hit a quick 50 from here or hes an ***************

 

[tahaqureshi]

score?

 

[zushy_786]

22-4 41 overs

 

[Officer Barbrady]

Are you guys even watching? Agarkar was bowling well with the old ball -- good reverse. Now the ball has been changed and the runs are duely flowing and will continue to do so.

 

[tahaqureshi]

so 10 runs in that over?

 

[Gasherbrum]

221/4 in 40

 

[zushy_786]

22-4 41 overs

i personally have hime out there instaead of MYK

at least he get otu quickly

 

[Bailan]

another four

 

[zushy_786]

the score is 221-4 after 41.3 overs

 

[Khalil]

YK edges a 4. Thats the only way he can score runs

 

[Hash]

227-4 from 42

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

4 from inzi - GREAT SHOT splits fielders in deep on onside!!

 

[Gasherbrum]

top shot, no need to worry. a few dot balls, but making the bad ones count. 4 to square leg, 227/4 after 42

 

[Hash]

10 an over from now is what we need

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

227/4 off 42

 

[Raz]

We need to get a move on!

 

[Hash]

that Yoyo runout really messed things up for us

thanks a lot hari

 

[Hydro]

mYk needs to attack not i nzi

 

[badxhah]

300 score would have been good here but i think we will get ard 280

 

[Gasherbrum]

inzi inzi ! pulls it away thru midwkt for 4

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

4 - great pull shot from inzi!!!!! he is the key now

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

rameez just said VIV RICHARDS is inzi's hero

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

yk should try to rotate strike - playing slowly

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

2 from yk - good shot

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

237/4 off 43

 

[Gasherbrum]

good over for pak without much effort, 237/4 after 43

 

[Hydro]

i think anything above 1 from MYk in this innings is a highlight

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

run a ball would give us 279

7 an over would get us 286

8 an over would get us 293

 

[ali kc]

Rameez said that Pakistan may be looking to go beyond 300 and this way atleast it can be a contest

seems like he has no faith in pakistan

i hating his pessimistic comment

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

chucky back on

 

[Raz]

Poor fielding by Sehwag gives away 4

 

[Hydro]

i think 299 isnt out of the question just yet
