Australia v Pakistan | 1st ODI | Brisbane | 22/01/10 | Australia Innings

[Afridi_Fan]

well you have to say 2,3 close calls of lbw not given..

this is how Aus often win matches

To be honest even review system wouldn't have given them out.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

3/113 in 24.

 

[Luton Bad Boy]

Singles are just coming too easy for the batsmen here...

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Somehow we need to stop those singles

 

[ShehryarK]

Tony Greig has lost it completely now. He reckons that was not given out because of where the ball came out from Afridi's hands. The two umpires on display aren't fit to see their own hands, let alone Afridi's!

Well, its late evening there... easy to get things mixed up after a few G&Ts.... and at Greig's age, things were somewhat mixed-up to start off with!

 

[insaftak]

Need a wicket now

 

[KA$H]

come on lets see some dot balls - force them to go for teh boundary

 

[Lethal]

118-3 after 25 overs.

Half way stage.

 

[Sledger]

Singles are just being handed out like sweets.

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

we need to bowl slower n let the bowl spin...haurtz was spinning it much more than ajmal...come on iDONE

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Required Rate is just 6.28

We need wickets.

 

[haseebbabar]

was that katrina on pantene commercial O.O

 

[Lethal]

Good first ball from Afridi.

A wicket needed now.

 

[KA$H]

Well, its late evening there... easy to get things mixed up after a few G&Ts.... and at Greig's age, things were somewhat mixed-up to start off with!

lol

 

[Big Mac]

LOL.

What happened to seeing it later on Sky+!?

Couldn't resist the temptation of seeing Ranadinho strut his stuff :naved

 

[Lethal]

122-3 after 26 overs.

Too easy for the batsman.

 

[Big Mac]

Don't like these fields

 

[Sledger]

Far too easy, this.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Required rate 6.37

 

[Lethal]

Better from Ajmal.

Flight the ball.

 

[insaftak]

Need to stop singles

 

[Lethal]

OK too much flight.

White smashes it for 6.

 

[Khabri420]

We need to get a wicket ASAP

 

[sali]

Too easy with singles every ball

Why can't we do this

 

[flawed_genius]

Afridi gets Ponting AGAIN! How many times has Ponting fallen to Afridi in international cricket, anyone know?

In all forms of the game he has been dismissed by Akthar the most (8 times) with Afridi following with 7 times.

Btw, White is a very dangerous player and his wicket needs to be picked up ASAP. Good move by Australia to send him in early to up the runrate.

 

[insaftak]

6666666

 

[Sledger]

6!

 

[Lethal]

134-3 after 27 overs.

Ajmal hasn't looked threatening yet.

 

[atifsm]

get Younus in

 

[Sledger]

In all forms of the game he has been dismissed by Akthar the most (8 times) with Afridi following with 7 times.

Thanks, the two beasts have put him in his place.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

iDone not at his iBest tonight

 

[iafzal]

match is slowly slipping. need a wkt now

 

[germanboy]

To be honest even review system wouldn't have given them out.

review is biggest ****

if these were given out and batman had take the review i bet with you the decicion stayed anywhere

 

[pak4life]

Beard scratching time
yousaf time for plan B!

 

[Lethal]

Better from Afridi.

Slow it up

 

[ads101]

White is killing us

 

[Afridi_Fan]

This is slipping away........

 

[ali_ed2006]

ok now we're in trouble.

 

[saqlain]

Australia is playing very well especially since the arrival of White. He is hitting sensibly.

 

[atifsm]

i think game is slipping away-

 

[Lethal]

Good fielding by Butt sahab.

Not the best over from Afridi.

143-3 after 28 overs.

 

[germanboy]

bring back Aamir

to much overs bowled by ASIF

stupid stuff again from captain man..

 

[pakbl10]

Spinners are'nt doing much...this isn't good :/

 

[atifsm]

Bring Younis, he can swing

 

[Lethal]

Asif back.

 

[germanboy]

man man man

 

[Sledger]

Australia in another league, Pakistan's runs looking well short now.

 

[saqlain]

I think Aamir should be brought back as spinners are not troubling the batsmen at the moment. Both Aussie players are playing well at the moment.

 

[Khabri420]

Asif brought back. Looks like he'll be finishing his spell

 

[iafzal]

Gul have been more useful then spinners it seems on this pitch

 

[atifsm]

asif ?????????????????

 

[t11sk9]

Asif will get white

 

[Luton Bad Boy]

Aamer would have been a better attacking option rather than Asif

 

[flawed_genius]

Australia is playing very well especially since the arrival of White. He is hitting sensibly.

Lol, that's his role in the Aussie team. He can be floated around in any position to get some quick runs depending on the situation. IF Pakistan weren't aware of this, well they are now.

 

[Lethal]

Well it hasn't worked for Pakistan with the spinners.

 

[Sledger]

Brought on the wrong Mohammad.

 

[tauseefm]

We need a wide slip.

 

[amarmak]

Bring Younis, he can swing

almost 15 overs late dude.... lost the plot

 

[Lethal]

How did they get 2 runs there.

Come on Butt.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Well it hasn't worked for Pakistan with the spinners.

Every day is not a sunday.

 

[Sledger]

Butt needs to move his.

 

[saqlain]

Pakistan has to stop the flow of these singles. It is going to hurt us later.

 

[Sledger]

Its already hurting them lol, only 120 odd to get.

 

[Lethal]

149-3 after 29 overs.

 

[saqlain]

There is a single on almost every ball.

 

[Sledger]

120 odd is easy in a T20 game but Aus still have 21 overs.

 

[germanboy]

ajmal change his hand.. and InschAllah also his luck

 

[sali]

Run every ball for OZ will win the game. Not like YK standing and blocking

 

[saqlain]

Its already hurting them lol, only 120 odd to get.

True...

 

[insaaniyat]

We need a wide slip.

we need few overs from YK

 

[haseebbabar]

Every day is not a sunday.

well if u put fielder far away from batsmen n do not apply pressure den how the heck can u expect them to get out.......


giving too many singles look at ponting wat he did in pakistan`s innings

clarke got singles as a gift

 

[pakbl10]

This is looking too easy for the Aussies
We need to stop the singles, so there is more pressure on the batsmen to hit boundaries.

 

[iafzal]

only way to win now is to take wkts

 

[Sledger]

*yawn* They're doing this in their sleep.

 

[haseebbabar]

i can smell australia will end up 276/ 6

 

[saqlain]

I guess it would be fair to say that Australia is in a very comfortable position. Pakistan has to bowl very tight overs from here and take wickets as well.

 

[Khabri420]

i can smell australia will end up 276/ 6

Stop smelling then!

 

[germanboy]

bring up the fielder let the batsman play some shots let them try sometihng diffrent.. dont give them easy single

 

[Afridi_Fan]

when is the next match?

 

[Sledger]

Need a magic moment to turn this game now, Australians finishing it easily.
