[chui_kadoo]

[Looney]

i want to strangle :umarakmal

 

[A.M.]

[MIG]

75/2 Eng - Pak were 47/3

 

[A.M.]

R u having me on. U call that not bad fielding.

it was a very good effrt

 

[Looney]

Afridi is demanding too much from Akhtar, 7 overs on the trott. Have never seen Akhtar bowl 7 on the trot before.

say good bye to for the next two series

 

[NJamal]

1 to Bopara

 

[A.M.]

1 more run

 

[tauseefm]

poor fielding. cost a couple of runs

+ poor field placing as well. If Ajmal is going to bowl to straus on the leg side why not protect the single as well.

 

[NJamal]

OUTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT Bopara Gone

 

[A.M.]

gone what a catch

 

[tauseefm]

Goneeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Kami almost dropped it

 

[NJamal]

77/3 after 14 overs

 

[Batman]

England | 3/77 | 14 Overs | Need 165 runs to win from 36 Overs

3 of the over!

28 runs ahead as Pakistan were 3/49 at that stage.

 

[Boi]

Ajmal you beauty!!

 

[Batman]

Ajmal strikes on his first over

 

[NJamal]

Strauss is the real danger for Pakistan

 

[Hamxa89]

How about the field setup for Ajmal guys.. I missed the start of the over

 

[chui_kadoo]

Bopi gone

 

[TigerJat]

OUTTTTTTTTTTT

things are happening

 

[malikvslee]

outtt

 

[hamzie]

smart fielding by ajmal. Pretended it was misfield so bopara gets on strike

 

[cric_crazy]

1st time I have seen akhmal taking a catch of any spinner in this series..........he is been dropping them all lately...........

 

[Looney]

GO GO GOPARA

 

[NJamal]

Morgan in at 5

 

[ZAK]

Bopara

 

[fawad_wellwisher]

13.6


Saeed Ajmal to Bopara, OUT, 92.9 kph, Bopara departs! Ajmal is a dangerous bowler and Bopara flashed an off drive, but could only get a faint edge through to Kamran Akmal, who held on gleefully!

 

[TigerJat]

really need to get strauss out now

then the pressure will be on England

 

[A.M.]

Morga in

 

[cricketcrazy]

BOPARA gone Mr Cricket Morgan in

 

[chui_kadoo]

Shoaib to continue. Lools like I was spot on. I told you all that he can bowl 8 overs

 

[NJamal]

Akhtar bowling his 8th over on the trot. I cant believe it

 

[Boi]

Akhtar??! 8 on the trot?

 

[sanakazmi]

shoaib is really trying to prove a point here. love it.

 

[A.M.]

ohhh good ball

 

[Savak]

This is crazy, risky stuff. Akhtar being made to bowl 8 on the trott, he cant handle it, his body cannot handle it.

 

[hur rizvi]

8th over in a row Afridi is trying to get shoaib injured

 

[chui_kadoo]

8 overs on the trott. Seems like Akhter is getting fitter

 

[NJamal]

Morgan off the mark

 

[cricketcrazy]

Wow when was the last time Shoaib bowled 8 overs in a row ?? MAshahallah

 

[Hamxa89]

Has Afridi brought the fielders IN for Ajmal this time guys?

 

[NJamal]

Akhtar is getting reverse swing

 

[MIG]

This is crazy, risky stuff. Akhtar being made to bowl 8 on the trott, he cant handle it, his body cannot handle it.

he is out.

 

[A.M.]

Shoaib to continue. Lools like I was spot on. I told you all that he can bowl 8 overs

anthr wicket would be idle for him

may be then 10 in a row

 

[Looney]

strauss next man to go

 

[chui_kadoo]

8 overs on the trot a t 90 mph is a no mean feat

 

[NJamal]

1 to Strauss on 49 now

 

[A.M.]

strauss next man to go

InshAllah
wese Morgan bhi chala ga

 

[chui_kadoo]

this is good news for Pak fans. Seems like Shoaib has alot still in the tank

 

[Batman]

England | 3/80 | 15 Overs | Need 162 runs to win from 35 Overs

3 of the over!

30 runs ahead as Pakistan were 3/50 at that stage.

 

[NJamal]

80/3 after 15 overs. Good bowling by Akhtar

 

[Hamxa89]

just love this guy!!! How much he's wanting to take a wicket.

 

[ZAK]

80/3 after 15 overs.

 

[Looney]

shoaib is really trying to prove a point here. love it.

he is being stupid if he is . only giong to injure himself . this is sh!t because pakistan already dont have its best bowlers available

 

[hur rizvi]

Salute to shoaib akhtar for his determination ...

 

[NJamal]

Ajmal continues

 

[tauseefm]

This is crazy, risky stuff. Akhtar being made to bowl 8 on the trott, he cant handle it, his body cannot handle it.

I would blame Gul here, if he bowled well in the first 15 over Shoaib would've been resting by now. Btw Good bowling by shoaib today. Thats all a fan needs, just give ur best which SA certainty did.

 

[A.M.]

nice bowling

 

[Savak]

8 overs on the trott. Seems like Akhter is getting fitter

What fitness? His pace is down big time in his last 3 overs. There is a reason why he cannot bowl more than 3-4 overs per spell. His speeds will decline in his 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th over e.t.c, they will be wasted overs where he will be bowling at 136-137 km/hr as oppossed to 143-148 km/hr.

Pretty poor captaincy.

 

[Looney]

afridi should bowl with ajmal and stop the runs

 

[A.M.]

50 for the cheater

 

[NJamal]

50 for Strauss MF

 

[NJamal]

2 to Morgan

 

[Looney]

I would blame Gul here, if he bowled well in the first 15 over Shoaib would've been resting by now. Btw Good bowling by shoaib today. Thats all a fan needs, just give ur best which SA certainty did.

why have gul in the team then ? if you have him you give him overs to bowl or use a part timer instead of injuring your best bowler

 

[Radiance Of Australis]

Strauss is lucky he isnt facing any left handers!

 

[A.M.]

2 more

 

[NJamal]

84/3 after 16 overs Drinks break

 

[Batman]

England | 3/84 | 16 Overs | Need 158 runs to win from 34 Overs

4 of the over!

30 runs ahead as Pakistan were 3/54 at that stage.

Brings up fifty for Strauss as well! Well played!

 

[A.M.]

4 off the over and its drinks hoffffffff

 

[WithLoveFromCanada]

shoaib should not bowl now.

afridi should bowl.

 

[ZAK]

84/3 after 16 overs.

 

[A.M.]

Afridi needs to ball well today

 

[Dr_Bassim]

The real question is ...

Will England go in "tuk tuk " mode now ... under the pretense of consolidating just like we did ?

 

[nads_rocks]

Strauss is lucky he isnt facing any left handers!

Strauss is lucky Aamer isnt in this team

 

[NJamal]

Gul comes into the attack

 

[Looney]

84/3 after 16 overs.

Pakistan were 54/3

 

[A.M.]

Gul coming back to bowl

 

[Noork85]

i love that commercial on geo "you make me wanna be tough" )

 

[Hamxa89]

why have gul in the team then ? if you have him you give him overs to bowl or use a part timer instead of injuring your best bowler

and loose? Akhtar has to do this as the team really needs quick wickets. The captain has no choice.

 

[A.M.]

dot ball
