India v Pakistan | Kitply Cup | Final | 14/6/08 - Pak Inns

[dirk diggler]

2 runs oh the ecstacy

 

[nadeem]

5.6 I Sharma to Kamran Akmal, FOUR, Shot yaar! Short of length and width outside off stump, Akmal stood up on his toes, got on top of the bounce nicely and cut it through point. Good horizontal-bat stroke.

Looks like cricinfo is going all urdu on us. I like it

 

[Zeenix]

Octavian and Hash.. Stick to cricket ...

 

[Indiafan]

omg, its very hard to watch our players not middling the ball

Is that because of the pitch for those watching?,

 

[lollol]

PAK vs IND is not the most played ODI...

 

[nadeem]

Guys, whos showing it in UK?

 

[alybaba]

Psychologically weak captain means psychologically weak players

 

[Zeenix]

Apparently its very hard to meddle the bowl. Butt should quit trying so hard

 

[MIG]

Whats really hard is to watch us complain about this performance !

Let the innings develop guys

 

[Plasma]

but ain't timing it today.

link for the people who asked. http://live-cricket-streaming.com/channel1.html

 

[the true passionist]

Butt getting under pressure. Is it the pitch or just poor timing.

Akmal is hurried on to the shot, while the ball never seem to reach Butt in time.

 

[octavian]

Octavian and Hash.. Stick to cricket ...

Zeenix he started it withput any provocation. i am not gonna stick to cricket when someone abuses someone very dear to me for no reason.

 

[Dhonifan]

Dhoni is a genius. He's placed Sehwag at silly point and that seems to have put some doubt in Salman's mind

 

[Plasma]

4444444444 good shot by akmal!

 

[Zeenix]

Four for Akmal

 

[McBoom]

I dont understand why Rao has been picked instead of Wahab Riaz!

Riaz was expensive in last match but he took wickets. Malik seems to love Rao!

Because Malik likes mediocre players just like him.

 

[Inswinger]

Nice shot by Akmal.

 

[Zeenix]

Gone Akmal

 

[Gabru]

i think the batsmen are trying too hard here, should stick to the basics and look for singles!...the pitch might be tricky but i cant see Pakistan going anywhere with this strategy..

As i write..Akmal hoicks it over mid-wicket for 4...and gone next ball !

 

[sohailalam]

fakmal gone

 

[Plasma]

and he goes next ball...

 

[IndianRenegade]

Thats where Akmal's wide swings end!

 

[dirk diggler]

OUT, truly awful opening stand

 

[tauseefm]

Akmal is gone.. pressure is back

 

[Inswinger]

Kami goes after a 4!

 

[lollol]

STUPID STUPID STUPID Akmal!!!!

Like is already expected!!!! Tried to do it again!!!

Now get dropped from the squad now, u &*(%#&*(%$&*($% issed:

 

[Gunner786]

disgusting decision
the ball was a mile away from the bat

 

[Hash]

Zeenix he started it withput any provocation. i am not gonna stick to cricket when someone abuses someone very dear to me for no reason.

oh this sounds like fun. Let's go back to being 6 again. You remember those days at school don't you?

'He started it miss'

'no he did'

'no he did'

BWAAAAAAAAAAAAA

 

[TaZ]

4 and out for akmal idiot

 

[Gunner786]

younis gonna get a hat trick of ducks

very rare feat

 

[dirk diggler]

Younus in, i'll be happy if he faces 2+ balls today

 

[Inswinger]

Malik please get you *** in here now or send Fawad. Anyone but YK.

 

[Random Aussie]

Is that because of the pitch for those watching?,

Ball not coming on to the bat....but could just be the batsmen's timing being off...as I type...44444 to Pakistan

Akmal out to Irfan "The Bowler of Pies" Pathan

Man these Indian advertisements are funny.....

 

[pakcricketfan]

over ambitious Akmal!

 

[iZeeshan]

Pakistan off to a terrible start. Slow RR, nothing going really.

 

[the true passionist]

Khan sahib its a final. Can you play one of your rare important ODI knocks?

 

[Dhonifan]

Gooo Pathan gooo

 

[tauseefm]

9.3 overs 34 for 1, what a start by pakistan

 

[lollol]

When akmal hits a 4, no one is happy to see it.

Cause we alll know he is going soon...

 

[IndianRenegade]

Lack of imagination on Akmal's part cost him... why would he play moving accross again even before the ball was bowled? Pathan got fooled once but not for long....

 

[Zeenix]

Four to younis

 

[dirk diggler]

YK man of the match

 

[Plasma]

ahahahahah 4 off the mark for younis!

 

[octavian]

oh this sounds like fun. Let's go back to being 6 again. You remember those days at school don't you?

'He started it miss'

'no he did'

'no he did'

BWAAAAAAAAAAAAA

now that i see you. i certainly do. hash akmal. haha

 

[Zeenix]

A nd he raises the bat.. LOL

 

[MIG]

And walks in YK

 

[Inswinger]

Grwat shot by YK. Eased through the covers for 4.

 

[Easa]

Younis with a beauty through extra cover

He'll show his class today

 

[TaZ]

4444444444444 for YK

 

[sohailalam]

younis celebrates his first runs in the series lol lol

 

[pakcricketfan]

powerful beginning by Younus..

 

[IndianRenegade]

why did he raise his bat? first runs of the series?

 

[Gabru]

Younis's style would best suit this pitch and conditions IMHO...the grace is for everyone to see...Champion as Arun "yes indeed" Lal puts it..

 

[dirk diggler]

Akmal's last innings for Pak....until the next series!

 

[Gunner786]

somethings got to give here

someone will be run out

 

[dirk diggler]

why did he raise his bat? first runs of the series?

faced 1 ball in 2 previous innings

 

[octavian]

high time for YK to perform. good start for him

 

[Dhonian]

lol, was posting in the wrong thread so far

 

[Zeenix]

Power play 2 started

 

[sohailalam]

i think we'll win easy, the pitch is breaking up too much.
it'll be a minefield by the time the indians bat.

 

[TurkishCricketFan]

ok Younis. please make me eat my words.

 

[Random Aussie]

10 overs 39 runs for 1 wicket.....reasonable going by Pakistan.

Get the feeling the plan is to play sensibly and make sure they make a score worth defending. Then unleash the BEAST

This pitch is slow

 

[dirk diggler]

streaky single, but necessary

 

[Zeenix]

QuickSingle to Younis

 

[MIG]

and a good close up of Salman

 

[Plasma]

quick run by Younis

 

[Zeenix]

Butt is still not able to time the ball.

 

[TaZ]

sehwag gets 39 off 3 overs these days

 

[dirk diggler]

Butt 19 runs off 33 balls

 

[Zeenix]

Salman is struggling big time

 

[Dhonian]

Was Akmal really out? The replays were doubtful

 

[octavian]

somethings got to give here

someone will be run out

u bet

 

[dirk diggler]

India will rattle off 40 runs in less than 6 overs

 

[Zeenix]

Dropped.. S. Butt dropped

 

[Gabru]

Is it just me or there seems to be a little "kick" in Praveen's action...I think its his wrist that bends at the time of delivery...

 

[alybaba]

What is Butt doing?

 

[Plasma]

did someone just get put down?

 

[lollol]

f*****ing Zeee, just die!!! Commercial just AFTER the ball has been played

Im glad asia cup is with setanta

 

[Zeenix]

Was Akmal really out? The replays were doubtful

Yes he was

 

[pakcricketfan]

Just as Ramiz Raja said that Pak are being extra careful so that they don't give him (Praveen Kumar) a wicket... and there goes a dropped catch!
