They are names of districts within London....

LOL..British soccer teams have funny names..West Ham vs Tottenham..

Anyhow..play should resume in a couple of minutes.

well it certainly beats New York 'Nicks' and Chicago 'Bulls'

 

[MarathaPride]

They are names of districts within London....

Ahh..didnt know that. Wonder why the Brits dont have names like us Yanks do..New York Yankees, Seattle Mariners...Boston Celtics..etc..

 

[Pathan007]

well it certainly beats New York 'Nicks' and Chicago 'Bulls'

'knicks'

 

[MarathaPride]

well it certainly beats New York 'Nicks' and Chicago 'Bulls'

The Bulls..what a team back in the day!! Ahh the memories.

 

[Genghis]

Sami starts with another boundary first ball ... and the 50 is up

 

[Oxy]

Wonder why the Brits dont have names like us Yanks do....

Englands football team is now known as the 'English Planks'...

 

[PlanetPakistan]

Come on guys lets do it! Need a bit of pace from M Sami

 

[MarathaPride]

And four to begin!! A bit dangerous though.

 

[Oxy]

Byes conceded by Akmal - reverting to type? - through his legs for 2

 

[cricket_crazy]

Sami back to his ways of trying to be a 'line and length' bowler...

 

[Genghis]

Tanvir to continue ... We need a wicket here pretty badly.

 

[Oxy]

If Shoaib or Sami break the 100mph barrier - can you kindly update the 'Speed Thread'.

Thanks - and thats me out of here.

 

[MarathaPride]

Jaffer - you ever heard of a square cut??!! Stop leaving every ball outside offstump.

 

[Oxy]

If Rameez was a spectator, he'd have a hundred 'I love you Nimbus' type banners in his hands!!!

 

[Caved12]

Ahh..didnt know that. Wonder why the Brits dont have names like us Yanks do..New York Yankees, Seattle Mariners...Boston Celtics..etc..

I am a die hard crazy basketball fan, and love watching Nba games, but do wonder where the hell do these names come from. Yankees, Mariners, Boston, still okay, I can accept them, but how about Charlotte Hornets or Memphis Grizzlies, or Detroit pistons, I mean Piston, Grizzlies, helloo, where is the pride in these names, lol

Grizzlies..LOL..horrible team, crap city, crap state, crap name.

 

[waqar_ahmad]

what pace is Sami bowling at?

 

[Showman]

Sami needs to unleash some raw pace.

As for NBA...Toronto Raptors all the way baby!

 

[nikred]

Grizzlies..LOL..horrible team, crap city, crap state, crap name.

crap state........cant agree more thank god i am out of that place.

 

[Caved12]

Showman, I love you for loving Raptors.

Go Raps Go, let them Gel for few more games, and then watch out for a 10 game winning streak, mark my words here

A better over by tanvir.

 

[Genghis]

finally we are seeing some good bowling from these two

 

[MarathaPride]

a good number of harega bhai harega chants...all in good spirit tho.

 

[MarathaPride]

A Brit and an Aussie in the stands..I think they are working for Infosys

 

[Caved12]

Oh man why the cameraman is stuck in these fake superman and batman, show us some kudiyan

 

[Hash]

come on pak

i can smell a wicket.

 

[MarathaPride]

C'mon India step it up a bit.

 

[Showman]

Showman, I love you for loving Raptors.

Go Raps Go, let them Gel for few more games, and then watch out for a 10 game winning streak, mark my words here

Exactly. Last year they started 2-8 and we all saw where they finished. As soon as Bosh gets back to 100% and like you said they gel, the Raps are gonna be a force. Plus Bargnani is improving...Bosh and Bargnani are gonna be a scary tandem in the future.

Bring on Shoaib Akhtar...let him and Sami bowl together.

 

[Caved12]

Seems like Bhanja is always in good spirits, enjoying every moment of it, even when he is a 12th man.lol

 

[MarathaPride]

And four!!!

 

[MarathaPride]

Whoa!!! Lucky break for Dravid.

 

[MarathaPride]

Super delivery by Sami...c'mon India keep steady.

 

[Genghis]

Sami bowling well ... unlucky to give away a 4 off an inside edge.

 

[nikred]

wow sami is fired up

 

[Caved12]

Exactly. Last year they started 2-8 and we all saw where they finished. As soon as Bosh gets back to 100% and like you said they gel, the Raps are gonna be a force. Plus Bargnani is improving...Bosh and Bargnani are gonna be a scary tandem in the future.

Bring on Shoaib Akhtar...let him and Sami bowl together.

Nope, these two are doing just fine, like hash said I am also smelling a wicket here too, as for Raptors, they will be fine, bosh seems to be back in his rhythm(22P,19R), and Bargnaini has got play some defence man, otherwise I love his offensive game, amazing talent.

 

[Caved12]

Super delivery by Sami...c'mon India keep steady.

that was a beauty

 

[Genghis]

Shoaib back now ... c'mon son ... do your thing!!!

 

[Caved12]

with akhtar's speed, all you need to do is to put a bat on it in your desired direction

 

[Caved12]

Cameraman is amazing, after putting a camera on Laloo Prasad Yadav, he spotted some girls in the near crowd like he was looking at them, lol

 

[waqar_ahmad]

Dravid is being troubled by Sami, edges and misses

 

[Genghis]

Not looking good at the moment ... still needing a wicket or 2 ... and on that note ... I'm outa here.

 

[Caved12]

Dravid is being troubled by Sami, edges and misses

Yeah, but we need a wicket here man badly

 

[Showman]

Yea and he also needs to watch the travelling. I wish they'd also run more plays for Anthony Parker, one of my favourites. Great D, great leader, and can score when needed.

Is Sami holding some pace back, to control his line and length or what.

 

[Yasin]

Shoaib gets it !!! JAffer gone !

 

[Easa]

Jaffer gone!

Shoaib strikes, plumb LBW!

 

[thurkeebaba]

Alhamdu-lillah

 

[MarathaPride]

Arun Lal..what a joker..just laughing away

 

[the_game]

Beautiful bowling by Shoaib. Jaffer gone. 71 for 2.

 

[MarathaPride]

Damn!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Caved12]

I love AP, he is my man.

I believe sami is doing the right thing, akhtar strikes again yes yesyes

 

[Easa]

By the way, salam to everyone

just woke up

 

[Caved12]

Akhtar is amazing today, loving it

 

[kablooee87]

Shoaib you beauty.

 

[Wicked Fast Bowler]

no sight in cricket more exhilarating than watching a ferocious akhtar delivery headed to the stumps and hitting the batsmen right infront....and then watching him appeal knowing its out.

 

[kablooee87]

what was the speed on that ball?

 

[Easa]

Arun Lal going orgasmic over Tendulkar's stats..

.. get over it.

 

[MarathaPride]

Tendulkar Is In!! Lets Make It Happen Sachin!!

 

[Easa]

Run out appeal for Tendulkar?

 

[Yasin]

Tendu gone !

 

[Salman]

Yesss!!!!!


Good Morning all!

 

[Easa]

TENDULKAR GONE

PAKISTAN PAKISTAN PAKISTAN!

great stuff this over

 

[12thMan]

Tendu runout

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

HHAHAHA....sachin gone

 

[Caved12]

Showman,
got excited and did not finish the sentences as Akhtar got JAffer, was speaking about sami , I think he is doing a good thing by holding back his speed, It is his first game back after long time, and he can't afford to give away too many runs, otherwise he is very capable of throwing
143-145, and he will eventually

 

[Caved12]

it is happening guys, yes.

 

[Yasin]

Come on Pakistan !

 

[Officer Barbrady]

Tendu gone!

 

[12thMan]

:3dbiggrin Pakistan coming back
Ind 73-3

 

[Islamabadi]

gone...tendu gone

 

[MarathaPride]

Tendulkar you fool!!!

 

[thurkeebaba]

Arun Lal going orgasmic over Tendulkar's stats..

.. get over it.

The hindi commentator is about to cry!

 

[Showman]

Yes! Tendulkar Run Out!

 

[the true passionist]

that was purely the fear of Akhtar - Sachin gone trying to run away from Shoaib.

 

[Caved12]

Tendulkar gone, yes yes, wow. watch out now

 

[kablooee87]

Sachin Gone!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yesssssssss

 

[P4K1 #1]

sachin gone.. now we need ganguly

 

[Imy]

Laxative is on now, or the fast bowler Ganguly

 

[Salman]

OK people calm down ,we need to get them all out today... lot's of work still to do..

 

[MarathaPride]

Well..Ganguly, Laxman, and Dhoni have to hold it together for India. Anyhow..gnite everyone..2:30am here in NY
