England v Pakistan | 1st ODI | Chester-le-Street | 10/09/10 | Pak Innings

[Momo]

England 274/6 (41)

Pakistan needs 275 to win.

 

[yadunoe]

this is like pak getting 400 in 50 0vers

 

[yadunoe]

pak will lose by 100+ for sure

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Pakistan face a very tough task here with no confidence in their own abilities at all - Looks very slim already with needing to go at over 6 an over from the start!

 

[iHammad]

Let's just quit.

 

[LegendsXI]

That was brutal to watch. Gul bhai found out in the ODis. Shud stick to t20s only.

 

[yadunoe]

not to fear is here

 

[Saurav]

Afridi n U.Akmal need to fire

 

[Fizza]

Gul was expensive today.Need a good start.

 

[iHammad]

6.7 runs per over required from the start.

pfft, they can't even score at that rate in the T20's..what are they gonna do in the ODI's!?

 

[yadunoe]

I seriously think there doing this to get afridi to quit the captaincy

 

[Maula Jutt]

Painful. No other word.

 

[deviously~fading~away]

Feeling is that Pakistan will lose by 80+ runs. Afridi to get out below 20.

 

[Boi]

6.7 runs per over required from the start.

pfft, they can't even score at that rate in the T20's..what are they gonna do in the ODI's!?

Don't worry. Hafeej will score a century today..

 

[iHammad]

Don't worry. Hafeej will score a century today..

Mein zaroor parfarmance duunga

 

[yadunoe]

Don't worry. Hafeej will score a century today..

lol last time I checked pigs don't fly

 

[Cricrazy]

I seriously think there doing this to get afridi to quit the captaincy

N then who's going to be the captain?? Akmal??

He should be out of the team anyways...

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

What time is paks innings gona start.

 

[iHammad]

I think we just suck at cricket....

 

[hamzie]

gUL was only good in that t20 tournament.
everyime now his ball lands around half way

 

[Theo_14]

Pakistan need to score atleast 6 runs per over - and partnerships are the key.

We need a good start - Kamran has been struggling to score and imo 50 overs (even though this is 41 overs) suits Kamran's style of play well. And hopefully his brother Umar Akmal will also produce a special knock, the direct run out should give him confidence boost.

Tough chase for Pakistan - possibly but tough.. very tough.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Hafeez and Kamran Akmal in the middle

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Dil Dil Pakistan playing in the background

Always brings a smile to the face!

 

[Boi]

I think we just suck at cricket....

Seriously, cut this crap negative crap out. Do you guys even know what the players are going through right now mentally? Cricket and Pakistani cricket has been ruined by what has happened over the past few weeks. And the Pakistani players are in the centre of it. Just be thankful that atleast they are playing. It would be a great achievement to even pull off a victory when you're scarred mentally like this.

Anyways. Back on topic.

We need a good start from the openers. Get us off to a flier and we have a chance.

 

[Passion4Pakistan]

Pak 0/1? 10/2? 30/4? Whats your Prediction???

No matter what, Praying for Pakistan to have a win on the eve of Eid Day.. Inshallah.. We will win... .

Anderson to Asad Shafiq, no run, fuller, but tight on off stump and Kamran steps forward to drive back to the bowler
0.2
Anderson to Asad Shafiq, no run, slightly zippier through the air and just a hint of away shape as Kamran is caught on the crease and defends to cover
0.1
Anderson to Asad Shafiq, no run, that's on target, on a length on off stump and Kamran punches into the covers
0.1
Anderson to Asad Shafiq, 1 wide, slightly wayward start as the ball doesn't swing either way but is arrowed just down the leg side haha cricinfo

Nice shot by Hafeez but no run

 

[chui_kadoo]

Good defence by Hafeez

 

[Passion4Pakistan]

Hafeez seems to have no intention to score Runs...

 

[ali_ed2006]

Hussain: You never know with Pakistan, just keep your gear by your bed. Never know when they retire you or sack you (regarding Hafeez)

[Cricrazy]

Just read Rashid Latif's article on spot fixing... and there was talk about bowling a first ball wide... and both innings had a first ball wide in this match... damn man.. these ppl ruined cricket for me....

 

[CricketBuff]

Hafeez averages 18, I wonder why they keep selecting this class of players. Is there no other talent in Pakistan!!!

 

[dirk diggler]

hafees has no intention of hitting anything
