[Free Hit]

157 kph...

 

[DeadlyVenom]

He should go sooner rather than later so the youngers step their game up.

 

[zulfiqar]

157! Is that for real??

 

[giri26]

Fastest ball by Lee

 

[Waheed_one]

aussies giving alot of extraz

 

[Waheed_one]

I always thought his reitrement is over due!

 

[Looney]

Punter is going to cry

 

[Waheed_one]

Punter is going to cry

Love to see that happen

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Australia got India where they want him. Just get Tendulkar the rest are walking wickets

 

[Waheed_one]

oh miss chanced

 

[AZ]

Jason you idiot!

 

[MHZ]

almost gone!

 

[Waheed_one]

Tendu almost done

 

[Noman]

He should go sooner rather than later so the youngers step their game up.

Why stop when u are the best?

 

[DeadlyVenom]

dropped :akmal

 

[akamaka]

krejza worst fielder in aussie team

 

[Free Hit]

80-1

 

[Waheed_one]

tait on again

 

[Free Hit]

dropped

 

[Looney]

After that , Punter definitely needs a hug

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Why stop when u are the best?

Its a team game not individual records. He should go that would take the rest of the batting out of their comfort zone

 

[asadee]

looks like a cakewalk for the Indians

 

[AZ]

Fifty for Tendulkar.

 

[Waheed_one]

tendu's 50

 

[MHZ]

Aussie bowling one-dimensional here. Suffering for lack of decent spinner.

 

[liaqat]

this is slowly slowly slippin away from aussie,,


they must be fillin up the plane's fuel , ready for the departure

 

[Waheed_one]

Fifty for Tendulkar.

seems like i behind in streaming!

 

[Looney]

Punter is bored , he is catching the flies with his tongue

 

[Free Hit]

2 runs

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Fifty for Tendulkar.

Your stream is amazing mate

 

[Free Hit]

50 up for legend

 

[Free Hit]

stream amazing? the over is completed here

 

[BaaliSoda]

Another very good fifty for Sachin

Tait is having some swing in the air (curving inside)

 

[DeadlyVenom]

im on 16.4 overs

 

[ozymandias]

Whats the over rate now?

Spitting Cobra cant continue using pace for long...

 

[Waheed_one]

might want to look at better streaming option

 

[MHZ]

Aussies need to do something different here. Make something happen.

 

[zulfiqar]

Guys, if India is to lose from THIS position, it can only be done one way! Let Sachin take his time to get his 100! After that, nail him and the rest will collapse. But first they have to actually have the skill to atleast take out Gambir from the other end and keep getting new batsmen on the crease to keep the RRR near 6.

 

[AZ]

am watching it on TV lads.

PTV

 

[Waheed_one]

im on 16.4 overs

oh well better options free ones too!

 

[NorthStar]

India should take the batting PP, want some excitemen.

 

[BaaliSoda]

Big WIDE

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Tait is terrible

 

[Waheed_one]

wide aussies are giving extras

 

[zulfiqar]

By the time Sachin reaches his 100 India should be something like 160/2 with about only 16~ overs to go. If Aus can manage this situation, I think they have a chance All other permutations lead to India win

 

[The Slogger]

Tait is pathetic

 

[Vegitto1]

how rubbish is Tatti!

 

[Strike!]

Australia need to being on their spinners if they're gonna have any chance.

 

[cricketloverindia]

wish akmal was their wicketkeeper, would have gotten 2,3 boundaries from wides only :umarakmal

 

[strongman123]

Honestly, Aussies have no real bowlers barring Lee. Ponting needs to show more faith in his off spinner, he is no Warne but then again who is?

 

[liaqat]

tait is bowling randoms,,
he shud bowl around the wicket 2 ghambir,,
krejza on now,,

 

[NorthStar]

Tait's rockets are misfiring today.

 

[Waheed_one]

spin is on

 

[MHZ]

spinner is on...time for fireworks.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

krejza on. 5fef for him today inshallah

 

[Waheed_one]

hahahah umpires missing no balls!

 

[hashmist]

Where exactly is India's batting weakness? They're playing pace well and they're exceptional against spin. How do you counter that in the SF if you're Pakistan?

 

[DeadlyVenom]

We shoulda had these umpires at the oval

 

[Waheed_one]

Ravi is pissed about it Gauti attacking on first ball

 

[Sheikh_Chilli]

Shaun Tait thinks thumping the ball into a dead
indian pitch will turn it into a seaming aussie pitch.


Sheikh 'Call A Shrink!' Chilli

 

[BaaliSoda]

Was Umpire missing out no balls from Tait?

 

[ozymandias]

krejza on. 5fef for him today inshallah

5 sixes in an over? :yuvraj:

 

[zulfiqar]

For all those saying Tait sucks, just look at his record! The guy is a huge wicket taker and all it will take for him to be among the wickets again is a quarter of a blink of an eye from the batsman

 

[zulfiqar]

Where exactly is India's batting weakness? They're playing pace well and they're exceptional against spin. How do you counter that in the SF if you're Pakistan?

Gul. Afridi. Ajmal.

 

[MHZ]

krejza is here...to go Krazy?

 

[AZ]

rubbish from Krejza so far.

 

[Waheed_one]

Was Umpire missing out no balls from Tait?

Yes his back foot no balls

 

[farsiddiqui]

Would be nice to add a poll to this commentary thread and see who are we rooting for in this match.

 

[BaaliSoda]

Thats a rubbish delivery from Krejza for 4 by Gauti

 

[Strike!]

Rubbish deliveries.

Australia really paying for dropping smith.

 

[zulfiqar]

What's a back foot no ball?

 

[liaqat]

this game will be over in the 45th over

 

[Waheed_one]

4 for gauit 50 run paartnership

 

[grunge]

Where exactly is India's batting weakness? They're playing pace well and they're exceptional against spin. How do you counter that in the SF if you're Pakistan?

score 400

 

[BaaliSoda]

94 for 1 after 18 overs

 

[Waheed_one]

What's a back foot no ball?

his back foot was outside the crease line I guess

 

[zulfiqar]

Would be nice to add a poll to this commentary thread and see who are we rooting for in this match.

Most of us are CONFUSED One, we want India to be the ones we beat on route to the Finals. Two, it's just awkward cheering for India.

 

[ozymandias]

For all those saying Tait sucks, just look at his record! The guy is a huge wicket taker and all it will take for him to be among the wickets again is a quarter of a blink of an eye from the batsman

and hope that the ball lands somewhere close to the stumps,

Seriously this guy wont hit the stumps even if there was no batsman defending it...

 

[liaqat]

tait shud bowl around the wicket, or bowl yorkers,,
thats the only way he might get a wicket,

 

[kaalakawaa]

Australia looks so beatable man. Now i am not sure if i want to face India
