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

[Savak]

We have given away too many easy singles in this innings, this is our biggest problem, we need to sharpen our fielding to create consistent pressure.

 

[Momo]

91 boff 92. Great stuff.

 

[Gollum]

RR over 6 now

 

[UP]

2 runs, flicked to midwicket.

 

[kashmiri]

[Mohsin]

Our fielding (bar malik) is still not sharp!

 

[Amjid Javed]

Pakistan still need wickets, because one big over for kiwis and Req run rate will come down.

 

[Disco_Lemonade]

We have given away too many easy singles in this innings, this is our biggest problem, we need to sharpen our fielding to create consistent pressure.

[kashmiri]

why are the umpires acting like the friggin UN security council.

vetoing anything decent

 

[The_Cricket_Devil]

that was too high, or at least looked so in real time hitting the flap of the pad

 

[Amir]

Of course Taufel won't give it. Taufel to make a bad decision vs NZ? Doubt it, he will get his game sraight now.

 

[UP]

Good fielding by Imran, 2nd run stopped.

 

[Sparhawk]

That ball was hitting three inches of the stump and he says its just clipping the top of the bail and a fair call. dumbass!

 

[Mohsin]

aFRDI CANT U GET BEHIND THE STUMPS!

 

[Khabri420]

Younis has been poor in the field. I know he has an injury but that's not an excuse

 

[desidudecool]

both these guys are not proper batsmen ...they are barely surviving

 

[the Great Khan]

^^ coz they dont want pak in the final!!..directive from the BCCI..lol

 

[Sparhawk]

Of course Taufel won't give it. Taufel to make a bad decision vs NZ? Doubt it, he will get his game sraight now.

[kashmiri]

these indian commentators are morons.
placing all pak players in karahi.

afridi is not from karachi, you moron

 

[filosofee]

this is honestly absolutely ridiculous, they havent dont this for anyone else in the whole competition, now gul is bowling, the camera is following the ball absolutely every second.

Yes, noticed that a little earlier (when live cast was streaming!). Journalists ready with pen to article non fair play if Pak win!!!!

 

[Momo]

Malik in. I don't like it.

 

[desidudecool]

run a ball from here...pakistan is still favorite

 

[Saj]

run a ball required.

A bit of turn first delivery from Malik.

Missed run out opportunity. If only Afridi had stood behind the stumps.

 

[Gollum]

SM on...bold move

 

[z2_daredevil]

malik wicket lay ga INSHALLAH

 

[Khabri420]

[Amjid Javed]

Malik on and this could be a match changing gamble!

 

[UP]

Stupid wide.

 

[coy0607]

6 an over from here

 

[Usman Chadda]

Why Malik?!!

 

[Sparhawk]

lets be fair, it was really tight. althoug he should have done ti after what he did to umar.

It was tight but if he had given it out it would have been a good decision

 

[Saj]

Malik getting big turn here. lbw appeal turned down

 

[Inswinger]

Seems Wasim hasn't been spot on today!

 

[Gollum]

Good news is that the ball is spinning

 

[The_Cricket_Devil]

Wide by Malik

 

[desidudecool]

elliot cant play spin..hes been a bit lucky so far

 

[The_Cricket_Devil]

Malik is getting some turn though

 

[Momo]

Taufel won't give any LBW today. Still angry for not getting the best umpire prize.

 

[Inswinger]

That looked out

 

[Gollum]

Taufel won't give any LBW today. Still angry for not getting the best umpire prize.

Yeah he used up his LBWs on Pakistan today

 

[Inswinger]

We need a wicket here. Or a maiden, the second best thing.
