England v Pakistan | 2nd Odi | Leeds | 12/09/10 | Eng Innings

[TigerJat]

61 runs in 8 overs is not a lot unless we get some quick wickets

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Fantastic fielding

Gul this time

2 runs again

 

[NJamal]

Misfield by Gul again 2 to Morgan

 

[sanakazmi]

*** umar.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

61 runs in 8 overs is not a lot unless we get some quick wickets

England will most probably win it in 7

 

[Afridirocks]

blame that on afridi too???

 

[Decipher]

nice to see hell a lot more of a crowd here than what it is in the IPL game.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Length by akhtar is easy.

 

[NJamal]

Wide by Akhtar

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Akhtar not fit enough for odis.

 

[yadunoe]

poor bowling poor fielding we can never do all 3 things right

 

[TigerJat]

shoaib is leaking runs, things not looking good

 

[dirk diggler]

actor looks spent

 

[NJamal]

England doing it in Singles

 

[NiCe]

I think so we should call either Anwar Ali... or any other good bowler... sorry to say Muhammad irfan is famous because of hight ... but Anwar Ali is goood bowler and he can bat as well..

 

[*syed59*]

pakistan really needed a few more runs,

if we lose who is the most to blame,

1. Hafeez - too many dot balls, didn't need to hit boundries, but needed to take some singles
2. Irfan - Dropping Strauss, poor bowling
3. Afridi - not aggressive enough

Only problem is that the dot balls from Hafeez and crap fielding from Irfan were something we could hold ourselves at because they haven't claimed themselves to be LOI cheetahs' unlike someone.

 

[NJamal]

Eng require 52 off 42 balls

 

[Batman]

England | 3/243 | 43 Overs | Need 52 runs to win from 42 balls

9 off the over!

2 runs ahead as Pakistan were 3/241

 

[GLORY OF '92]

It's shocking that waqar is not getting them bowling yorkers.

 

[Noork85]

a few boundries and england win...

how do we manage to lose even when we bat well?
its a shame that we have no amir when we finally have good batters.

 

[Wasim_Waqar]

pakistan's dreams of mumbai...are distant at the moment

 

[NJamal]

Afridi continues

 

[yadunoe]

why doesnt afridi understand they will def get this core with tuk tuk,

 

[Deewana Mastana]

It's shocking that waqar is not getting them bowling yorkers.

He's milking money with the rest of the lot aswell!

 

[TigerJat]

bad over from shoaib.

he shouldn't be used at the very end anyway, Umar Gul might be a better option

afridi back on

 

[*syed59*]

a few boundries and england win...

how do we manage to lose even when we bat well?
its a shame that we have no amir when we finally have good batters.

Because we rely on our bowlers getting wickets on their own and on their own only. Fielders and their placing is something we have never given any respect to.

 

[pak4life]

England have not been made to break sweat for this win no pressure from ball one. Captain needs to take full responsibility.

 

[MC]

This game still has the potential to go either way. England requires back to back boundries to get comfortable.

 

[TigerJat]

pakistan need a couple of very tight overs

 

[NJamal]

248/3 47 runs req off 6 overs

 

[Batman]

England | 3/248 | 44 Overs | Need 47 runs to win from 36 balls

5 off the over!

2 runs ahead as Pakistan were 3/246

 

[cricketpassion]

England require another 47 runs with 7 wickets and 36 balls remaining

 

[hamzie]

batting powerplay hopefully works in our favour

 

[ZAK]

248/3 after 44 overs.

 

[cricketpassion]

Batting PP is on now

 

[NJamal]

Batting PP taken

 

[yadunoe]

gul needs to come on

 

[dirk diggler]

batting PP

 

[Dr Khan]

batting pp now

 

[cricketpassion]

Fianlly fielders will be circle now

 

[Dr Khan]

no gul?

 

[oracleg]

Ajmal bowling in a batting powerplay against 2 lefties...

 

[ScotRaz]

Because we rely on our bowlers getting wickets on their own and on their own only. Fielders and their placing is something we have never given any respect to.

we did not bat well, ok so that not entirely true, everyone batted well but afridi failed again (he SHOULD have got pak well over300+), and that is whats costing us the game.

 

[cricketpassion]

yesssssssssss

 

[TigerJat]

we needed Yasir Arafat in this game, probably would've gotten us a few more runs

 

[hamzie]

Out strauss gone

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Strauss

[yadunoe]

[ZAK]

[Wasim_Waqar]

that's gone, well bowled. bopara and morgan hold the key

 

[Noork85]

an the nerve he has to walk out while raising his bat..

 

[yadunoe]

come on ajmal some more wickets would be good

 

[Batman]

Much needed wicket for Pakistan.

 

[Dr Khan]

England still favorite but a glimmer of hope for pakistan

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Keep fighting!

Ajmal can keep it going then we have a chance here.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

47 off 34 balls for England to win

with 6 wickets left

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Keep fighting!

Ajmal can keep it going then we have a chance here.

 

[cricketpassion]

Lucky Doctrove gave out otherwise it was gone for four legbyee

 

[NiCe]

Please tell me
Dropped catch by akmal was difficult or easy

and dropped catch by irfan was difficult ???

 

[cric_crazy]

pakistan is gonna loose the match from here...........its too late now.......

 

[oracleg]

Great doosra!!

Bopara in next...can't see him smacking it around.

Attack him please Afridi!

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Bopara comes in

 

[hamzie]

Why no slip for bopara

 

[NJamal]

Bopara in

 

[yadunoe]

The cheater has to go

seriously guys, why are all of you hypocrites why would he walk? liek think about would any Pakistani batsmen walk like that no batsmen in the world would. so let it go

 

[NJamal]

Bopara off the mark

 

[TigerJat]

something to cheer about.

if only we can get a couple of good overs now.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

44.2 Saeed Ajmal to Strauss, OUT, 67.5 mph, Ajmal strikes, Doctrove finally gives one! That was plumb infront though, quick and very full. Strauss was down to sweep and the ball would have smashed into the middle of off stump had his pad not got in the way... Pakistan aren't out of this yet

 

[hamzie]

RR Climbing drastically now!

 

[dirk diggler]

round the wkt..good ploy from ajmal

 

[yadunoe]

love to watch morgan bat

 

[Dr Khan]

come on pakistan, pull a famous win, we need it

 

[hamzie]

4444444 for morgan.. ****
