India vs South Africa | T20 WC | Group E | Durban | 20/9/07

[tmac4real]

this sharma guy is quite useful.

 

[sohaib17]

tried afridi type of peddle sweep


looked stupid

 

[sagar]

Now India should look definately for 160 at least.

 

[siddharth]

wow ,India crossed 100.

 

[jackal786]

Come 36 in 6 balls !

 

[tmac4real]

tried afridi type of peddle sweep


looked stupid

sharma should jsut stick to strokeplay

he looks like a dumbass trying to be cheeky.

 

[sagar]

If only Dhoni can pull a Yuvraj here. That would be awsome.

 

[siddharth]

Now India should look definately for 160 at least.

Need a Yuvraj act for that.

 

[jackal786]

On a two paced wicket Rohit under pressure has done really well. Mostly proper cricket shots. No slogging.

 

[sagar]

Need a Yuvraj act for that.

2 overs 30 runs are not that. I think you should really work on your math.

 

[PlanetPakistan]

no ball and 4!

 

[Islamabadi]

no and 4...free hit

 

[PlanetPakistan]

This will be a good game if IND can remove Gibbs and Smith with in 30 or so runs

 

[siddharth]

Look at Dhoni's strike rate..?????

 

[hellopak]

Guess they changed the pitch????

 

[Islamabadi]

sharma stinks...wasting balls

 

[jackal786]

They bowl yorkers very well.

 

[PlanetPakistan]

Sharma hasn't scored from his last 4 balls. Dhoni doing well though

 

[sagar]

Ok that wasn't a good over for India. They need at least 155.

 

[12thMan]

Ind 139-4 after 19

 

[hellopak]

They bowl yorkers very well.

After getting 4 wickets did SA changed the pitch?

 

[sagar]

Ok they should be happy with 145 the way they are going.

 

[Saj]

One thing that is noticeable is that the SA bowling attack has a "sameness" to it.

All right arm medium fast No variety at all.

 

[jackal786]

Very good recovery thanks to some genuine intelligent stroke making.

 

[hellopak]

Ok they should be happy with 145 the way they are going.

Ya they should be happy, since they knew SA would have chased even if they were scoring 180.

 

[sagar]

Very good recovery thanks to some genuine intelligent stroke making.

India should have made at least 160 but they didn't play that well. Dhoni shoul have done better thatn this.

 

[Hari Sombar]

run out Dhoni by 1 inch

 

[sagar]

Ya they should be happy, since they knew SA would have chased even if they were scoring 180.

Now that's funny. )

 

[12thMan]

Dhoni runout

 

[tmac4real]

2 sixes from pathan will be welcome

 

[12thMan]

Ya they should be happy, since they knew SA would have chased even if they were scoring 180.

not if Salman Khan was on the dancing platform

 

[Hari Sombar]

need a six from sharma, nb will do too

 

[tmac4real]

Ya they should be happy, since they knew SA would have chased even if they were scoring 180.

have you had one insightful post this whole thread, other than stupid comments about india?

 

[hellopak]

2 sixes from pathan will be welcome

Ya two sixes from anywhere in the name of Allah will be accepted by India.

 

[Hari Sombar]

hooked for six !

good on ya son !

 

[tmac4real]

what a dive from pathan lol

 

[jackal786]

Rohit seems to be committed. India did a good job on this pitch. I didn't think they would cross 120 at one stage.

 

[Islamabadi]

that should have been a no ball

 

[12thMan]

last ball six by Sharma
Ind 153-5 after 20

 

[Hari Sombar]

what a dive from pathan lol

it was Sharma mate

 

[siddharth]

Sharma is the weakest link here ...?

 

[PlanetPakistan]

6 of the last ball!

154 to win for SA

 

[tmac4real]

it was Sharma mate

yeah just realized. I thought pathan went halfway down the pitch then went back.

 

[jackal786]

have you had one insightful post this whole thread, other than stupid comments about india?

I totally ignored that WUM. You need to operate some heads to put some sense.

 

[siddharth]

Rohit seems to be committed. India did a good job on this pitch. I didn't think they would cross 120 at one stage.

But i heard he wasted so many balls

 

[sagar]

Good job by India here. Well done.

 

[tmac4real]

sharma played well. Stuck around when needed, important 50.

 

[Hash]

153 for India

a good 20-30 runs short. They are going to have to come up with something very special to win this.

 

[hellopak]

Very good score in the absence of aging stars like Tendulkar, Gangully and Dravid who could have helped SA in fielding, and also on a VERY DIFFICULT pitch to face Fast bowlers since India is scared of fast bowling.

Lets hope SA does not change the pitch to a batting pitch during break!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Hari Sombar]

C'mon, Pathan will need to bowl his heart out here !

 

[Islamabadi]

Sa needs to make 126 to move ahead to semis

 

[jackal786]

But i heard he wasted so many balls

Nope. He wasted few while trying that cheeky shot over fine leg. Other than that he was showing intent all the way. Positive Intent.

 

[Hari Sombar]

Our fielding needs to be top notch. No drop catches, minimum miss-fields

 

[hellopak]

have you had one insightful post this whole thread, other than stupid comments about india?

I already posted my insightful post in a thread title Why India can not make it to semi final? .

Here I am enjoying it, just little disappionted that SA let India score more than 100.

 

[siddharth]

Nope. He wasted few while trying that cheeky shot over fine leg. Other than that he was showing intent all the way. Positive Intent.

Sorry for that .I wasn't checking the scores .Now i got that .well played sharma . This is a reasonable score considering the way we started.

 

[hellopak]

C'mon, Pathan will need to bowl his heart out here !

Is India playing with one bowler? why all hopes only from Pathan?

 

[Hash]

hellopak-

as long as we keep our heads we will win this. India have not got anywhere near enough runs.

 

[jackal786]

Yup considering the depth of Saffers batting this total is very short. Atleast 20 to 30 short. I agree. But i predict Saffers will cruise through.

 

[Islamabadi]

that last ball should have been a no ball

 

[hellopak]

hellopak-

From Pakistan semi final point of view it will be better to play India than NZ, which could assure Pakistan a final berth, but from pleasure point of view it will be nice if Indian players watch semi finals from India instead of being in SA.

 

[hellopak]

I guess the right word will be I FEAR they will cruise through.

 

[tariq2007]

Hi,i requested pak vs aus match clip plz send me....

 

[OU812]

Pakistan fans and to a large extent the indian fans are plagued with one disease..that's IMPATIENCE...look at the new lad SHARMA..i can beleive the indian supporters here are knocking this guy down for wasting a few balls..surely u know that if it wasnt for him india would be tottering around 90 allout..give the new kid a break...he has talent and he has shown that to all of you...just like misbah ..

which one of you armchair ,burger chugging , cricket fanatic would dare go out out a play like misbah or sharma...words are cheap people..so give the new kids a break

 

[12thMan]

Smith and Gibbs to open. India needs to win to stay alive

 

[Hari Sombar]

what an idiot 4 wides

 

[Islamabadi]

what the hell is sirshant doing

 

[12thMan]

Sreesanth starts with a wide on legside that goes to 4

 

[Amir]

what an idiot 4 wides

5....5

 

[tauseefm]

another wide.. can somebody pass sreesanths glasses

 

[OU812]

how many of the inidan fans here believe in their own team's bowling capabilities...you must believe that you can get the Saffies out below 153..if i was dhoni i'd tell my boys to fight like hell ..or as the indians love to say these days ......CHAK DEY

 

[pak4life]

are there any south africans in the stands the staduim went silent

 

[Islamabadi]

dhoni is ******...srishant can't control the movement

 

[PlanetPakistan]

poor start from Sreesanth in helpful conditions

 

[tauseefm]

4 runs by smith nice short.. very poor bowling by dancer

 

[Islamabadi]

4 by smith...siri paye sucks

 

[Islamabadi]

just got away with another wide

 

[hellopak]

Guess none. India always believe in their batting if it is not against fast bowling or if it is on flat pitches.

 

[Islamabadi]

beautyful delivery

 

[hellopak]

At present rate SA need 7 overs to win. 3 balls 11 runs

 

[PlanetPakistan]

11-0 after 1 over
