[Boi]

Stupid Akhtar!

 

[MIG]

Umer Gul, Tanvir - slow balls, yorkers but we give the ball to Shoaib ?

 

[Inswinger]

Gul

He didnt impress much earlier

 

[Sparhawk]

Free hit!!

Goodbye match.

 

[Mohsin]

No Ball! U Are An Idiot!

 

[Inswinger]

No ball and free hit

 

[Boi]

I would rather of brought on Butt!

 

[Deewana Mastana]

This was the make or break over and has ended all the chances of any Pak revival...

No Ball - Free Hit

 

[Zaad]

freee hit

this game is over

thank u shoaib akhtar!

 

[umarf76]

maybe his last match

 

[Mohsin]

Oh well at least this is his last ever match for Pakistan

 

[Boi]

No ball1

 

[Saj]

and this is probably the over that has cost Pakistan the match. Thanks Akhtar

 

[Mohsin]

4444444444444444444

 

[Inswinger]

Game over I guess

 

[HuZi]

nno way pakistan will win this match njow

 

[Usman Chadda]

He didnt impress much earlier

He has been much better than Shoaib even when being hit around. This is utter crap from Akhtar

 

[Oxy]

JAmmy edge for 4

 

[Bouncer]

akhter stick with this

[Deewana Mastana]

Game Over

 

[Boi]

I am trying hard to control my self!

 

[Usman Chadda]

Akhtar should be given the Man of the Match award for Sri Lanka

 

[MIG]

and this is probably the over that has cost Pakistan the match. Thanks Akhtar

Repeat after me Saj - no more pace, no more pace .....

 

[Muyazzim Khan]

Fat man go home and lose some weight have some professional pride please!

 

[Zaad]

shoaib akhtar killed us!

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

umar had 3...fawad just got u a wicket....so why bring on akhtar WHY

 

[Boi]

Game Over!

 

[shabs100]

pathetic!!!

 

[Usman Chadda]

17 off the over so far

 

[tauseefm]

chootya of the match.....shoaib akther

like always

 

[Deewana Mastana]

He's laughing aswell....

 

[Mohsin]

Not a single slower ball! Absolute rubbish! JUST RETIRE AND BECOME A SUMO!

 

[Saj]

Repeat after me Saj - no more pace, no more pace .....

An expereinced cricketer like Akhtar should know better. Utter rubbish.

 

[SAM'S]

Akhtar gets the apartment!

P.S. gift from Mendis

 

[MIG]

Akhtar now doing his wounder tiger walk - I wish natural selection would take over.

 

[tauseefm]

He's laughing aswell....

ofcourse what else can he do now.

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

just bc akhtar is available do we have to play him...why do we have to play him he cant perform in 2020 bc his pace wont work

 

[Boi]

Butt would of done a better job instead of Akhtar!

 

[Inswinger]

Maybe Fawad will get a hatrick?

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

HAHA


so gul again doesnt get 4 overs....HAHA

 

[Ghoshtbuster]

Damn

 

[MIG]

An expereinced cricketer like Akhtar should know better. Utter rubbish.

Saj the captain should know better. Really blame Malik for bringing him on

 

[Usman Chadda]

21 from 30 needed. Why Shoaib wanted to blast the batsman out, specially with the short boundaries, I just cannot comprehend

 

[Zaad]

this game is still on

1 over with 2 wickets!

 

[MIG]

Small ground - extra pace - predictable results

 

[HuZi]

this game is still on

1 over with 2 wickets!

who will to this?? XD

 

[Mohsin]

SL can just take the singel now

 

[Usman Chadda]

Saj the captain should know better. Really blame Malik for bringing him on

Come on MIG. Akhtar is the most experienced bowler in this team. Malik went for him thinking his experience will come in use at this crucial stage

 

[Muyazzim Khan]

Akhtar getting Ashley Coled by the crowd! hahaha

 

[Mohsin]

Gul should come on now

We need some of his T20 WC magic!

 

[Oxy]

I dont think Ive gone from optimism to doom & gloom so quickly......

 

[SAM'S]

i still hope its going to go down to wire

 

[PlanetPakistan]

thats too bad...very poor stuff from Shoaib.

Perhaps the most disappointing spell since that infamous 03 world cup game against IND

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

i mean 2 games out of 3

ur best 2020 fast bowler doesnt get 4 overs

 

[Boi]

19 needed from 16

 

[tauseefm]

Small ground - extra pace - predictable results

u know what would a normal pakistani cricket fan said in response. "pace ko hum nay bound main lana hay"(its a general response)

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Now comes on Gul

 

[Saj]

Come on MIG. Akhtar is the most experienced bowler in this team. Malik went for him thinking his experience will come in use at this crucial stage

Yes, he needed to mix up his pace. Instead he tried to blast out the batsmen.

 

[Boi]

18 needed off 24

 

[IMMY69]

Come on MIG. Akhtar is the most experienced bowler in this team. Malik went for him thinking his experience will come in use at this crucial stage

ma

 

[Ghoshtbuster]

Fawad encouraging the players.

 

[Mohsin]

C'mon Gulli!

 

[Boi]

Gul to bowl!

 

[MIG]

yorkers pls

 

[Inswinger]

Bowled him

 

[umarf76]

bowled

 

[Mohsin]

Gooooooonw

I Love Gul!

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Why wasn't he bowled before?

 

[Islamabadi]

bowled him

 

[umarf76]

horrible shot

 

[lollol]

Thats why everyone said gul should have bowled instead of pindi

 

[knz68]

Yes, Gul get's a wicket

 

[Mohsin]

That shot reminded me of a shot played when Razzaq tied us the game!

 

[BD-fan]

I thought it was a team decision to bring back Shoaib, no? Wasn't Gul suppose to bowl and then the three heads (Fridi, mesbah and younis) decided to collide together?

Anyways, the captain should have talked to his bowlers in taking the pace of the ball.

Fernando listened to his captain. Why can't Pakistan captain impose himself over the team?

 

[Oxy]

YES!!!
GUL strikes

 

[Usman Chadda]

A win is still possible guys. A good over by Gul, and Sri Lanka will feel pressure going into the last few overs

 

[HuZi]

Gone L:d
