Asia XI: 1 Sanath Jayasuriya, 2 Sourav Ganguly, 3 Mahela Jayawardene (capt), 4 Mohammad Yousuf, 5 Virender Sehwag, 6 Yuvraj Singh, 7 Mahendra Singh Dhoni (wk), 8 Mashrafe Mortaza, 9 Harbhajan Singh, 10 Zaheer Khan, 11 Mohammad Asif.

Africa XI: 1 Loots Bosman, 2 Boeta Dippenaar, 3 AB de Villiers, 4 Steve Tikolo, 5 Justin Kemp (capt), 6 Mark Boucher (wk), 7 Shaun Pollock, 8 Elton Chigumbura, 9 Thomas Odoyo, 10 Morne Morkel, 11 Albie Morkel


82/1 off 9.3

Gangu 21 off 12 balls with 5 40's
Sehwag 32 off 28 with 6 boundaries
 
6 players are from India.. probably for making the game profitable.
 
Absolutely no foot work, Sehwag trying to drive, inside edge onto his stumps

Sehwag goes for 45
 
now if only Ganguly got out so Jayawardene and Yousuf can bat together :D

For some strange reasons, Pakistani players hardly ever perform when they play for Asia XI, World, ROW XI etc.

Because they're not playing for Pakistan?

If I was a batsman with the calibre of Yousuf or a bowler with the calibre of Asif, or somebody else, I can assure you, I wouldn't have as much pride as I do when playing for my country.

It really comes down to how much pride you have for your country, which in turn affects your performance.

I know what you mean but that applies to almost every other player, i don't really care about these games much but just a fact that our players hardly ever give any sort of performance. On the other hand, most of them perform well for counties.

But they should ,still playing to represent One's country.
 
M Morkel to Ganguly, OUT, bowled 'em, cramped for room and tries something cute, ends up looking silly, short of a length on and outside off, tries to glide it to third man, thick inside edge deviates onto middle stump, Morkel strikes and Asia being pegged back a bit


Here comes Yousuf!!!

Because i am not.
Another FOUR by Jaya, i think Afridi should have played instead of Bhajji because he is as good bowler in ODI's and better batsman.

They do count as it is an OFFICIAL ODI.

31.6 Tikolo to Mohammad Yousuf, FOUR, reverse sweep and that's 8000 ODI runs fro Yousuf - what a player

CONGRATULATIONS MOYO for 8000 runs.

Another great achievement by Moyo!!
 
yesssss

jaya out

now yousuf can become the first player to hit 100 for asian side
 
Mohammad Yousuf Making a Century...How it'll be...
 
Tikolo to Mohammad Yousuf, FOUR, short and wide outside the off stump, Yousuf goes back and across, waits for the ball to turn and then cuts it through point, diving effort in the deep ends in vain

Congrats Moyo for getting his 50, now go for some big shots to entertain the crowd.
