Edit

 

[TigerJat]

match almost gone

 

[JellyBro]

bowling in at a might 75mph...awesome stuff from the 7-footer pussycat

 

[pakbl10]

Irfan's bowling is just unacceptable. And on top of that his fielding is atrocious. He needs to go

 

[ZAK]

Ajmal comes back into the attack.

 

[IAJ]

No need to give Ajmal the ball if you are not setting the right field.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

That over by Irfan has just helped England get back more on track with the RR as it was slightly above before

 

[Hamxa89]

Afridi has lost it.

 

[TigerJat]

Pakistan did not score enough runs anyways, on this track they needed about 330-350 to really put pressure on the batting.

Too many players just trying to cement their position in the side.

 

[dirk diggler]

GAME set and match folks. 5-0 a great possiblity now

i'll stick a tenner on that, this team cant chase or defend a total 5-0 is amost guaranteed

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Wide spaces for singles

No pressure whatsoever

 

[PB]

Lmao, our bowlers are crap.

 

[NJamal]

England are playing risk free against Ajmal

 

[Zaid23]

irfan is no where near international standard...overhyped....only have height ...no swing whatsoever....afridi has been absolutely flat.....pak desperately need someone with swing in the start....somethin which amir was doin....sohail tanveer only comes to mind...and he has recovered from his injury...will certainly come back of amir continues to miss out

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Another ODI 50 for Trott

He's really milking it against Pakistan

2 in 2 now!

 

[Express Pace]

Irfan fumbling, as usual.

 

[NJamal]

50 for Trott

 

[Hamxa89]

Ajmal can't do anything with this field. Pathetic stuff from Afridi!!

 

[pakbl10]

It seems Afridi doesn't know we are supposed to be defending a total here.

 

[Batman]

England | 1/186 | 32 Overs | Need 109 runs to win from 108 balls

5 off the over.

19 runs ahead Pakistan were 2/167

 

[cric_crazy]

If pakistan looses this game then there really is no hope left for the rest of the matches

 

[NJamal]

Hafeez comes back

 

[siddharth]

Come on don't allow strauss to take 100.

 

[dirk diggler]

If pakistan looses this game then there really is no hope left for the rest of the matches

we're going thru the motions, game has been conceded

 

[SWERVE_uk]

Is afridi stupid we aint going to win this match if he keeps defending with all fielders outside on boundary they will win anyways.

You need to attack them, especially trott and strauss they aint big hitters force them to come out and hit the ball.

Am sorry to say Afridi capataincy is rubbish he has one plan in every game the say field every match no matter what the situation and also his bowling since last years world cup has gone down

 

[Express Pace]

Pretty slick fielding there, very un-Pakistani like.

 

[Hamxa89]

Afridi has seen this match slip away from him all the way and has done absolutely NOTHING! I don't know whats going on in his mind but England isn't a team which will gift u wickets.

Put in some effort man!!!

 

[Noman]

Poor capaincy by Afridi. Pathetic field set up for himself, ajmal and Hafeez. Putting no pressure on England.

Bring a slip in. Get the fielders inside the ring. Stop those singles and force them to go over the top!!!

These players have played for so many years.. Waqar and Afridi do not have clue about field.. I blame more Afridi here,, he has played cricket for so long and still do not understand stand spin cricket is about by attacking.....

 

[cricketpassion]

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Billy says

NOT OUT to LBW

 

[hamzie]

Allah karai out hai please

 

[chui_kadoo]

Afridi needs to get his act together and start to take responsibiliy with bat and ball

 

[Express Pace]

RUN OUT chance

 

[hamzie]

Out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Looks

RUN OUT

 

[Hamxa89]

Thank god a break thru!!

 

[Express Pace]

[chui_kadoo]

[NJamal]

[dirk diggler]

[Noork85]

[Batman]

Run out Trott gone

 

[Deewana Mastana]

189/2

 

[Pakistani4ever]

outtttttttttttttttttttttt

 

[Yossarian]

Can't bowl, can't bat, can't catch, can't field, poor captaincy - and to think Pakistan were World Champions once.

 

[NJamal]

England 189/2

 

[Noman]

Afridi has seen this match slip away from him all the way and has done absolutely NOTHING! I don't know whats going on in his mind but England isn't a team which will gift u wickets.

Put in some effort man!!!

He has not had any slips at the start.. when and Batsman seees the field is defensive he than have more confidence in him.

 

[Afridirocks]

too little too late???

 

[ZAK]

Trott finally

 

[siddharth]

Oh i thought that was strauss.

 

[Pakistani4ever]

comon ajmal

 

[Express Pace]

Afridi has no shame, if Hameed has the brain of a 15 year old, Afridi has the brain of a 5 year old.

 

[SWERVE_uk]

Now attack the new batsman pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

 

[JellyBro]

finally!!!

 

[Noman]

Can't bowl, can't bat, can't catch, can't field, poor captaincy - and to think Pakistan were World Champions once.

We had Younis Khan. He was master in field setting...

 

[siddharth]

Pak is not out yet.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Colly walks in for the Poms

 

[NJamal]

Colly comes into bat

 

[Noman]

Afridi has no shame, if Hameed has the brain of a 15 year old, Afridi has the brain of a 5 year old.

spot on bhai

 

[Pakistani4ever]

oh

 

[Hamxa89]

Afridi needs to take a leaf out of younis khan's book. The way he used Ajmal and Afridi was exceptionally. Not only did they stop the runs but took wickets in the crucial middle overs.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Easy single to Colly

190/2 after 35 overs

 

[NJamal]

Colly off the mark 190/2

 

[Batman]

England | 2/190 | 33 Overs | Need 105 runs to win from 102 balls

4 off the over.

12 runs ahead Pakistan were 2/178

 

[Extreme Pace]

Should have been out lbw

 

[Noman]

afridi I do not get it..

 

[oracleg]

Why does Afridi keep gifting singles to new batsmen? Collingwood's not going to come out swinging.

 

[Noman]

please atttack

 

[Afridirocks]

We had Younis Khan. He was master in field setting...

i am tired of younus khan younus khan, hes not here dont talk about him

afridi is the next best, give time for god sake, you dont become a good or bad captain by one game, in all the other games his captaincy has been pretty ok

so everyone needs to chill out

 

[mastermind_quad]

bring back akhtar ..bas do wkt aur....

 

[Deewana Mastana]

100 for Strauss 5th ODI CENTURY

 

[hamzie]

Cheater gets a 100

 

[Noork85]

what a besharam

 

[JellyBro]

dont forget about the poweplay....

 

[Afridirocks]

strauss the cheat, gets to his hundred

Thank You Billy Doctrove

 

[adidazz]

Afridi'd captaincy is shocking to say the least. No tactical knowledge or nous! All he's got is Josh and jazba, wasim and imran had that too but they also had a brain. Afridi is making malik and butts captaincy tenure seem imran khan like!

 

[NJamal]

Lucky hundred for Strauss should thank Billy Blind Doctrove

 

[Hamxa89]

100. Dropped once and given a life by the umpire.

 

[dirk diggler]

a thoroughly underserved hundred to this tw4t

 

[siddharth]

That was an embarassing 100.
