[Canistani Hero]

Afridi IN.

 

[sarmadsl]

News from Peshawar
one more early wicket

 

[shehzi]

let razzaq come in next NOT kamran

 

[MRSN]

Still played way better than Bradman

a test batsman with great temperament could not get us home where run a ball was required

 

[sarmadsl]

2 dots
is afridi playing???

 

[Zamee]

Loosing this match might be a blessing in disguise for our players. I dont want them to be complacent.

 

[Akmal Dynasty]

The hell is up with so many dots? Its t20 for crying out loud.

[Canistani Hero]

0 0 0 0 4 0

Afridi, so far.

 

[Zamee]

a test batsman with great temperament could not get us home where run a ball was required

lol yeah as if they are playing a test match eh ? What about the best batsman of limited overs cricket? Playing with the strike rate of 45 is just

 

[MRSN]

Afridi takes a single

 

[sarmadsl]

late update
1 run on last ball

 

[GreenKnightRises]

:4 from Lalaaaaa...

 

[Akmal Dynasty]

Didn't see you laughing when Akmal jr was playing pathetically slow.

He was advised to stay at the crease...

 

[zulfiqar]

this is the perfect situaton i've been referring to lately ... although some could call this a presure situation it really isn't. perfect time for afridi to find form... run-a-ball required, easy as anything!

 

[Zamee]

Didn't see you laughing when Akmal jr was playing pathetically slow.

lol you will be ignored

 

[sarmadsl]

39 from 36 balls

 

[zulfiqar]

is this match being televised btw?

Umar Akmal Stats (Revised)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the last four T20 Internationals, this is what Umar Akmal did:

10 runs / 22 balls

13 runs / 12 balls

2 runs / 6 balls

2 runs / 5 balls.

This guy is so low on confidence he should not be on the team. This is not funny anymore. He needs to learn the basics. Shot selections are crazy. He's pulling everyone down with high expectations. DROP him before the team makes a quick exit...One good inning every 7 or 8 outings does not justify his place on the team.

 

[Akmal Dynasty]

Broad back in the attack.

 

[MRSN]

lol yeah as if they are playing a test match eh ? What about the best batsman of limited overs cricket? Playing with the strike rate of 45 is just

he's out of touch otherwise game might well have been over for Eng by now.

 

[sarmadsl]

dot from afridi
he is searching form in playing dots
welldone

 

[Akmal Dynasty]

 

[sarmadsl]

 

[imshally81]

t

 

[sali]

Shoaib Malik to win it for Pakistan

Its better we lose this match than have SHoib win it with his 20. We will have to watch him play and miss next 10 games.

 

[zulfiqar]

lol spoke too fast

 

[MRSN]

caught at midwicket

 

[waqar goraya]

Afridi fails too

 

[Strike!]

Brainfart Afridi gone.

 

[sarmadsl]

My news were correct then ohh man!

 

[kungfu90]

Afridi out. Horrible form

 

[GreenKnightRises]

 

[Akmal Dynasty]

lol you will be ignored

see post no. 344

 

[Irshadbhat]

Cant understand the idea of batting jamshed at 3 he is naturally opening bat its just a no brainer

 

[sarmadsl]

Razzak in

 

[Canistani Hero]

Afridi OUT.

 

[shehzi]

OUT

AFRIDI hasb e mamool GONE early

 

[Strike!]

Would be so awful to lose this game after bowling out England for 111.

 

[sarmadsl]

Better for pakistan to lose this game

 

[MRSN]

is someone telecast it ???

I don't know I'm watching Aus vs Pak 3rd ODI highlights

 

[waqar goraya]

caught at midwicket

Haha Kieswetter is a superman

 

[Zamee]

he's out of touch otherwise game might well have been over for Eng by now.

He is always out of touch if we go by your logic

 

[sarmadsl]

dot from Razzaq

 

[imshally81]

Atleast he able to found his bowling form

 

[zulfiqar]

Cant understand the idea of batting jamshed at 3 he is naturally opening bat its just a no brainer

yeah but with nazir in the team; it's either nazir or him. i'd much like jamshed to open too ... but ah, we have too many openers. They'll have to settle for however high they are now

 

[sarmadsl]

2 dots

 

[MRSN]

huge crowed disappointed

 

[zulfiqar]

Razzaq doing his traditional tuk tuk that he usually does when he's new at the crease. And then once he's set he can go both ways

 

[sarmadsl]

better not play nazir

 

[Strike!]

Get into form by playing dots in t20.

 

[sarmadsl]

razzaq is finished now

 

[Akmal Dynasty]

End Of Over.


Pakistan require another 38 runs with 4 wickets and 30 balls remaining.

 

[zulfiqar]

you guys, don't expect anything else from this line-up. One day they'll be making 180 the other day it will be like this That's the kind of line-up we have, and isn't that what we all wanted?

 

[MRSN]

Someone please wake up Razzaq

 

[shakil]

iTuk, uTuk, aTuk, Tuk tuk tuk

misTuk

 

[Akmal Dynasty]

Malik our only hope

 

[MRSN]

you guys, don't expect anything else from this line-up. One day they'll be making 180 the other day it will be like this That's the kind of line-up we have, and isn't that what we all wanted?

our whole batting depends on Kami,Malik and Jamshed..if they fire we'll do well with the bat otherwise get ready for scary scorecards

 

[sali]

Haha. Asad Shafiq the highest scorer... Take Nazir out.

 

[Akmal Dynasty]

2 to razzaq.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Razzak and Malik can finish it..

 

[shakil]

We should fly our KamiKaze plane next

 

[sarmadsl]

80

 

[shakil]

six




not

 

[waqar goraya]

Broad 6 in 3 overs...

 

[Akmal Dynasty]

Finn to Shoaib Malik, no run.

 

[shakil]

runs of the over

 

[sarmadsl]

don't be so happy with kami
you know
he is Akmal any time any day

 

[shehzi]

shoaib and razzaq will win it for pak

 

[MRSN]

Atleast he able to found his bowling form

tbh he's having some back injury and can't bowl all of his variations atm according to Basit Ali but I hope he recovers before first game.We need his bowling if we are to win this world cup.Ajmal alone can't do it.
