India vs Pakistan | 1st ODI | Chennai | 30/12/12 | India Innings

[Lightning Blade]

ajmal or hafeez need to bobwl. gul giving away the match to inida

 

[imranraf]

Misbah needs to take out Gul and bring on Ajmal now.

 

[BlackThunder]

Raina once again showing why he is so valuable to Indian limited overs team.

 

[Sledger]

Venom out of the wicket now it seems.

 

[TM Riddle]

irfan into the attack

 

[JibranAnsari]

Pakistani batsmen should be mentally ready for a tough chase of 220 plus.

 

[PakPosheeda]

Gul cant even get a wicket on a bowling track. Wahab or Anwar Ali for him in the next match. Gul's been mediocre in ODIs and Tests for a long time now. To think we preferred him over Junaid all this time.

 

[asif9138]

irfan to continue

 

[Rana]

I think the pacers have been found out


need to play the spinners now

 

[TM Riddle]

I have never seen so much grass on Indian pitches

 

[CalculatedRisk]

Why can't Anwar Ali replace Gul...he can also bat a bit

 

[IgnitedMind]

Raina looking settled...

 

[asif9138]

next game drop gul..bring in wahab or anwer ali

 

[chaiwala]

lol.. anything under 220 and we will chase it down easily.

It won't be easy. Bhuv can swing it, Ishant has bowled well in seaming conditions too. Dinda may leak runs though.

 

[Sledger]

16/60 extras.

 

[IgnitedMind]

What a horrible throw...

 

[TalhaSyed]

180 i would take with a smile . you are an optimist buddy
heavy rain forecast in hourly forecast -we need 4 hours of deluge

Haha you could saying being a Pakistani fan I am pessimistic

These 2 batsmen doing a great job for the Indians here.

 

[asif9138]

wild throw

 

[fight_club]

Gul seriously needs some rest and rethink on his bowling, absolute rubbish from him after Junaid played havoc with them.

 

[IgnitedMind]

Not wide?????

 

[chaiwala]

Wideee not called

 

[asif9138]

lucky

 

[Sledger]

Typical Bowden decision.

 

[Rana]

I hate Harsha's commentary

 

[godzilla]

gul always does this, one good game and secures a place for the next nine horrible games.

that said, the batsmen really applying themselves very well here.

 

[Jeetu111]

looking real murky . 62/5

 

[Lightning Blade]

Quarter of the runs scored by india are by extra.
Good job pak bowlers for gifting runs away to india.

 

[asif9138]

62 in 16

 

[Looney]

I would like to hear Waqar`s comments on `s bowling today

 

[saiyan0312]

Light came back... and missed the three wickets ( .... Anyway soo many extras and this partnership is going by the slow pace but its building... We need a wicket to expose their tail.

 

[iRfaN_LA]

We r taking it easy, wish anwar ali was playing instead of Gul. The guy wud have loved this track.

 

[MR__KHAN__JI]

Need to bring the spinner on

 

[t_kaay]

Just short

 

[Sledger]

Mis-field at slip, run taken.

 

[TM Riddle]

ohhh lucky raina..didn't carry to the slip

 

[Rana]

I have never seen so much grass on Indian pitches

This was no plan, they couldnt shave it because of rain.

 

[chaiwala]

Glad to see a few of our batsmen in double figures

 

[asif9138]

just short of slip

 

[insaaniyat]

India has plenty of overs left to climb back into the match. We need to restrict them to 100

 

[IgnitedMind]

partnership...34 of 39 balls...

 

[Jeetu111]

one thing good about YK is he is always smiling .good bloke . 64/5

 

[Sledger]

Another mis-field, Jamshed this time.

 

[Looney]

Raina 18 not out
Extras 16 not out

 

[saiyan0312]

Why are getting misfield...

 

[t_kaay]

Misfields creeping in here

 

[asif9138]

single

 

[JibranAnsari]

laughing after misfielding..someone slap the fat man

 

[hur rizvi]

Tak Gul off please

 

[TalhaSyed]

Bring in Hafeez to try get Raina?

 

[Jeetu111]

cant see this developing into a more than 25 over match .

 

[asif9138]

hafeez being prasied

 

[saiyan0312]

Raina is getting a bit comfortable.

 

[chaiwala]

Haha, Raina's "textbook" pull shot on display ) Well, at least he's worked on it.

 

[IgnitedMind]

Good shot of the short ball from raina...

 

[iRfaN_LA]

Gul is looking desperate

 

[Lightning Blade]

This match is slipping away from paks hands.

 

[insaaniyat]

laughing after misfielding..someone slap the fat man

Didn't he smile after dropping tendu in the world cup and cost is the match?

 

[Rana]

Gavaskar's Push Push Push lool

 

[JibranAnsari]

Gul has nothing in his armory to trouble the batsmen.

 

[Bilal7]

Get Ajmal on, please!! We can't let these guys settle down.

 

[asif9138]

UV did not look back once bowled

 

[t_kaay]

Is over confidence gonna let India back in the game here? We need to keep it tight here

 

[Sledger]

3 off. 65/5.

 

[ussy]

Bring a spinner in now please!

 

[asif9138]

65 in 17

 

[TalhaSyed]

I have a feeling Gul will get Dhoni with a yorker - just not sure when

 

[MR__KHAN__JI]

Spinners?

 

[TM Riddle]

I think pitch wouldnt be this much tough when Pakistan will bat ...we need to score above 250

 

[Sledger]

Maybe time for Hafeez?

 

[asif9138]

i think spinners are comming

 

[CalculatedRisk]

Imran Farhat with his manboobs

 

[saiyan0312]

Bring in Ajmal or hafeez.

 

[Ahson8]

Whatever happened to our spinners?
These two are looking comfy against Gul & Irfan right now.
Time to throw the ball to Hafeez, he bowls well to the lefties

 

[Sledger]

Junaid is back on, attacking move by Misbah.

 

[hur rizvi]

Gul is the most rubbish bowler on helping wickets...


cant swing , cant seam

 

[MR__KHAN__JI]

Hafeez to raina please

 

[TM Riddle]

junaid in...surprised bowling change

 

[IgnitedMind]

Junaid in...

 

[Bilal7]

Will India look to draft Pujara into their ODI side after this massacre? They would be smart to do so.

 

[TalhaSyed]

Misbah looking to go for the kill and re-introducing Junaid.

Could be a master stroke if Junaid strikes - or a waste of overs if he doesnt
