CT 2009 | Semi Final 2| 3/10/09 | Pakistan V New Zealand | Wanderers | NZ Innings

[Gollum]

This match is not over....not by a long shot

 

[The_Cricket_Devil]

Vettori comes up the order, the last real batsman

 

[CrickFan]

huge wicket .. need few more quickly

 

[imshally81]

excellent over with 6 and the wkt

 

[Khabri420]

Here's comes the king of all whiners...Professor Vettori. Go get 'em

 

[sehban]

vettori in, another danger man

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Naray Takbeer

Allah-O-Akbar.

 

[Sparhawk]

As usual a break in play followed by a massive loss in concentration. Taylor was batting very patiently against Afridi and his variations.

Full credit to afridi though, after being hit for a six he was right on the money

 

[from_da_lost_dim3nsion]

the comm sounds like he about to cry !

 

[Mohsin]

Random thought of the day #5: Ross Taylor has an uncanny resemblance with Gautam Gambhir.

Views please.

I said it before in this thread, i wana punch Taylor.........so yes i agree

 

[GamBiTT]

So Taylor is our 38 for 61.

Moyo did 45 from 78.

Since Taylor hit a couple of sexy sixes -- he played better eh..

Bohot Na-Shukray ho!

If there is anyone who should not be blamed for Pak battinig performance -- its Moyo..

 

[Sparhawk]

When did vettori become a 4 down batsman? Its hard to get him out but im sure we can contain him.

 

[niazi]

Rana might go for some runs with that new ball

 

[Seen Sheen]

Naray Takbeer

Allah hu Akbar

 

[khilari]

haha, the commentator saying that every cricketer knows not to cut afridi

 

[The_Cricket_Devil]

108 needed from 20 overs with 6 wickets in hand. One more wicket and the tail is exposed

 

[Gollum]

Rana needs a good spell here

 

[Momo]

"Every crickieter in the world knows that you DO NOT cut Shahid Afridi."

legend!

 

[Mohsin]

singles still coming though

 

[The_Cricket_Devil]

haha, the commentator saying that every cricketer knows not to cut afridi

It really is true, Afridi's balls go on with the arm so often that it is just not advisable to do so. Especially now that Afridi gets such beautiful drift

 

[imshally81]

vittori avg is 15 and he is the batsman lol

 

[LG]

That's what you get for losing our reversing ball!!

 

[Momo]

I said it before in this thread, i wana punch Taylor.........so yes i agree

 

[kashmiri]

ET --> Elliot go home

 

[hashman]

York Vettori Rana....get him outta the way.

 

[Rizwan25]

Come on ranaaaa

 

[niazi]

no ball!!

 

[godzilla]

we need another quick wicket only 105 needed when rana bowls a no ball.

 

[the Great Khan]

shabaash sher-pakistan Afridi!! cmon Pakistan keep fighting !! Takbeer!! Inshallah!!

 

[Mohsin]

no ball issed:

 

[The_Cricket_Devil]

vittori avg is 15 and he is the batsman lol

He has test hundreds to his belt, do not underestimate him

 

[abdulqadir786]

i fell like ian could is bikawa

 

[Osman]

Ffs Rana!

 

[ajk88]

rana DIAF you fcker

 

[Inswinger]

Yaar. We can;t afford to give up extras.

 

[kashmiri]

shabaash sher-pakistan Afridi!! cmon Pakistan keep fighting !! Takbeer!! Inshallah!!

Allah u Akbar

 

[godzilla]

well bowled just a single off the free hit, yorker outside off.

 

[Da Best]

Swing and a miss from Vettori.

 

[Khabri420]

Come on Rana...this is ridiculous

 

[Gollum]

no ballz....ian gould earning his money in NZ innings

 

[CrickFan]

Rana will just leak singles and ease the pressure

 

[ajk88]

At least NZ is not hitting these free hits for six.

 

[The_Cricket_Devil]

Thankfully, the free hits are not costing us today like they did vs India.

 

[niazi]

Rana doing nothing!

 

[down4whatever]

how long is rana going to stay in the attack

 

[abdulqadir786]

come on pakistan

 

[Inswinger]

He has test hundreds to his belt, do not underestimate him

He's a gritty and gutsy player. Wont give it up so fast.

 

[CrickFan]

Won or lose ..this has to be the end of road for Rana

 

[godzilla]

there hould never have been a single there. these guys are magicians.

 

[cricketpassion]

This guy simon is getting in my nerves .does anyone know how long he will be in com box

 

[Mohsin]

102 needed from 114

We're still inviting them to take the singles!!!!
AAAAAAAAAAAH

 

[niazi]

Lol @ kiwis Commentators... Pressure is on Pakistan.... jus look at Kiwis camp and look their faces

 

[imshally81]

time for SM

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Naved off now. Ajmal back on. Get vettori out.

 

[The_Cricket_Devil]

Won or lose ..this has to be the end of road for Rana

Rana is a good bowler, the only problem is that he needs there to be swing in the air for him to be the lethal weapon that he is

 

[Momo]

At least NZ is not hitting these free hits for six.

But we will keep trying any way.

 

[Gollum]

Won or lose ..this has to be the end of road for Rana

What about MoYo?

 

[Khabri420]

Simon Doulle is so annoying

 

[shane]

The point of taking a wicket was that it was meant to stop the singles. NZ carrying on where they left of.

 

[the Great Khan]

these singles need to be blocked..we need a couple of high pressure overs!!

 

[The_Cricket_Devil]

Eye of the tiger should inspire Pakistan

 

[imshally81]

afridi looking dangerous with new ball

 

[Muzy]

i think malik should bowl n over and see what happens..... kiwi's luking peeled out of their skins right now

 

[Inswinger]

Can we have Wasim back on? This Kiwi bloke is a serious homer!

 

[kashmiri]

afridi looking dangerous with new ball

specialist new ball bowler

 

[Momo]

Theek hai theek hai bacche! lol

 

[The_Cricket_Devil]

hehe Akmal calling Malik bachay

 

[Inswinger]

i think malik should bowl n over and see what happens..... kiwi's luking peeled out of their skins right now

Malik should definitely get an over.

 

[pak4life]

Can we add Doull on the annoying commentators list?

 

[Mohsin]

Seriously am i missing something?

Is the Required RR 9 rpo or something?

 

[Momo]

Doule might have a heart attack.

 

[godzilla]

so what do you think the plans should be? let rana bowl out his allotment at the end, or have malik in for a couple of overs?

 

[Disco_Lemonade]

chalo drinks break, A wicket straight after the drinks InshAllah!!!!

 

[Momo]

Seriously am i missing something?

Is the Required RR 9 rpo or something?

It's not even 6 as yet.

 

[Khurram]

nz commentator simon has some huge problem with Pakistan. Need Elliots wicket and very soon

 

[kashmiri]

we need one more wicket in the next 3 overs to pile on the pressure

 

[slix10]

Pakistan were 130/4 at this point.

It's going to be tight.

 

[niazi]

I've gotta feeling Vetori is gonna get out soon

 

[The_Cricket_Devil]

Doule might have a heart attack.

This is the closest NZ have been to a final since CT 2000 so he may just be justified in that

 

[rhussain33]

Too many runs are leaking... how can that be stopped.. the wickets aint exactly flying in !!
