Lahore won the toss and they are batting.

 

[McBoom]

Naved Latif,
Inzamam-ul-Haq,
Azhar Mahmood,
Humayun Farhat,
Mohammad Sami,
Mushtaq Ahmed,

This is the team according to Cricinfo. Are they playing with only FOUR bowlers?? Seems like Farhat may be bowling 4 overs! I hope it does not hurt them.

Nazir is an absolutely nuclear animal, I'd have him in the Pak ODI and test team immediately

 

[Saqlain_doosra]

Taufeeq hits a staright one, classic.

[Muddaser]

Yeah.

Classic way of getting out from Imran Nazir by the way.

 

[Saqlain_doosra]

Classic way of getting out from Imran Nazir by the way.

Never mind he still out performed Taufeeq and Farhat.

 

[McBoom]

every pakistani team, be it Badshahs or the test XI can't play the left arm spinners

 

[TaZ]

Both farhat brothers out for a golden duck. Confirms how useless they both are

 

[DM]

Humayun's duck was far from useless though, it was pure unadulterated animosity

 

[dblock]

Dean Jones - Are we allowed to say Chinaman

Into ultra politically correct mode nowadays

 

[W63L35]

These guys can beat Pakistan XI?

Remember 1999 WC.... we were the top team but still lost to our BD "brothers"!

Badshahs are just taking this match very lightly...thats all!

Impress with 2 Indian bowlers:
