Seems a bit harsh, I mean the African team is weaker than South Africa's first XI!

Agreed!:12: And Graeme Smith is walking around the player's enclosure like a wounded bear...

Guess he wishes he was out there....

Inzi looks "bigger" than last I saw him against the Windies....:p
 
im at work so i cant watch it yet..


but i got the link for it.. and im watching it on winamp.. :D
 
Inzi doesnt know what to do with such a varied and fit attack - he is probably looking for Kaneria !
 
Bouch and Prince are both good runners between the wickets...

they should accumulate singles now...leave big hitting for later...

is it me or someone else thinking the same?!

today i somehow find Indians in gr8er numbers in the field even though they r 4 in comparison to 5 Pakistanis but so far Indians r dominating the dominating the game on the basis of their performance..4 out 5 wickets have been picked up by Indian bowlers...both the catches have been picked by the Indian fielders...and mostly the ball is going towards Indian fielders in the field too!

it seems as if i m watching Indian cricket match and not an Asian XI!:|
 
its funny both Zaheer Khan and Nehra have bowled much better than [Edit by Mods: Akhtar is his name - pls dont abuse players ] today!...where r [Akhtar] fans?:D

my views on Akhter today:Bowled really quick! his speed must be in the late 80's mph or early 90's...moved the bowl better than the three pacers...but bowled way to no-balls specially since he is the main strike bowler

lets see how he bowls in his 2nd spell...at the moment Zaheer Khan is the real show stealer!

My guess is you did not see Akhtar bowl today, he was a class apart from zaheer and nehra.
 
Even Sangers looked impressed at the pace the ball was getting through to him...

And that off a flat centurion pitch....

I think Shoaib bowled a really quick spell...that's his job, ain't it!

Besides....now that he's looking so uber fit....he's looking really good...

Yes i really wanted to see how fit Akhtar is and i must say i am impressed he looks quite fit and doesn't look fat at all if any thing he looks muscular.
 
He's lost it and in my opinion will never be the same. Note: I said opinion. So please criticise that and not get personal, cos I've taken enough **** this month. But yeh thats what I believe, cos it's impossible for him to get back to full flow, with his weight and health.

yup agree!...his pace can't be compared...but Zaheer & Nehra edged him today interms of guile!...

I said compared to nehra and zaheer he was a class apart.
 
its a joke if people r saying he looks fit!...i have seen Shoaib much much more fit then he looks now!...he still needs to loose those extra kilos he has put on his thighs and tummy!

Have you seen him today because i don't see any problem with his weight in todays game.
 
even Razzaq looks a disappointment today!..he is bowling even slower than Kumble today!...rite move by Inzi to raplace him with Murli

No one is saying that he is at his athletic best but he looks alot more fitter and HAS lost weight when compared to 6 months ago.
 
can someone update me with the score thanks as I cant seem to open cricinfo from work. Thanks.
 
its 116 /5 in 24.2 overs!...partnership btw Boucher and Prince is 50+..its the record partnership at this ground for 5th Wicket!
 
Shoaib Akhtar 5 1 23 1

so shoaib bowling okay, mash'allaah. Picked up a wicket i see, LBW (not watching the match havent got the channel) Which channel is it on by the way?
 
so whose getting more asisstance? kumble with swing? or razzaq with spin?

Can you rate the pak players out of 10 on what you have seen of them so far insh'allaah.
 
MashAllah Kumble is swinging it both ways with gr8 pace!...surely gonna open the attack with Harmo against Aussies in Super series

Shoaib 8/10
Razzler 3/10
Inzi's captaincy is on Auto pilot mode

Need to see Afridi bowl soon, he's fielded well.

Yoyo chance will come when he bats

i wonder what inzi is day dreaming about :)))
 
Who are the commentators for this match? As i don't get to watch it i hope it is Ramiz and Sanjay. That is your punishment :D
 
Razzler was pretty crap with the ball so I dont think Inzi will give him another go, Ashish and Zaheer were pretty good though.
