[McBoom]

Beast & Mini-Beast are laying into Dehli.

[KA$H]

AFRIIIIIIIDIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

[Dhonifan]

[SwEeT CaNdY]

[Dhonifan]

maharoof will do it ...go mahaaaaa!

 

[W63L35]

[Indiafan]

Great batting. Go beast

 

[iZeeshan]

EDIT.

 

[Showman]

Afridi six!!!

 

[MCMLXXXII]

EDIT.

Man, stop confusing! I thought he had hit another six!

 

[SwEeT CaNdY]

afridi rocking tonight

 

[Mohsin]

i should be revising you know!!!!!

 

[neorocks]

Finally some cricket from Afridi... Great shots..

 

[Indiafan]

Man, stop confusing! I thought he had hit another six!

He did

 

[Dhonifan]

lovely 6 from the beast...

 

[W63L35]

33 run in 13 ball

99 runs in 39 balls?

 

[MCMLXXXII]

Man, stop confusing! I thought he had hit another six!

Oh well, maybe he really did. It is raining 6s. Hard to keep count. Posters please post ball number also. Thanks.

 

[KA$H]

and retaining the strike - like it!

 

[Saj]

Afridi gone.

Legspinner, up in the air and caught at cover.

 

[Showman]

Afridi caught out, first ball after the powerplay.

 

[W63L35]

Current partnership 50 runs, 3.5 overs, RR: 13.04 (Gibbs 21, Shahid Afridi 28)

 

[gibster82]

we all knew that was coming...but now its a very achievable target for sharma and gibbs

 

[SwEeT CaNdY]

afridi gone..I just wanted to call my dad to watch Afridi bat n hes gone

 

[Dhonifan]

mishra does the trick...phew, for a moment afridi had me sinking in my chair

 

[Gunner786]

well it was good while it lasted
he gauranteed his position for his next match

 

[Ghoshtbuster]

Well, Afridi did his job.

Run rate was about 12per over while he was in.

 

[Rana]

this could mean carnage!

 

[FAM]

Well he did his job .

 

[NeVerMind]

Damn Afridi gone! Will it kill him to just see off the first ball from a new bowler!

 

[sohailalam]

afridi is doing his thing after the team is out of the competition....why cant he fire when needed???

 

[gibster82]

they should have opened his througout - he may have not made 50s but 20 or 30 odd while opening of 14 balls is the start deccan needed...

now gibbs and sharma need to bring this home

 

[Raz]

Gibbs and Sharma still there, Deccan should win this from here.

 

[gibster82]

afridi is doing his thing after the team is out of the competition....why cant he fire when needed???

because in all the other matches he came in at like 50-5 or 70-4 with a lot of pressure.

 

[jusarrived]

Amit mishar shud play for india soon...handy batsmen as well !

 

[gibster82]

now that afridi is out i can go pee...lol

 

[Dhonifan]

Man, afridi and adrenaline are made for each other. hes built this great platform and he could have won just by taking singles alone, but no, he had to go for another skier. does he have any commas in his life?

 

[jackal786]

If Sharma blows... Delhi will regain the momentum.. though Venu rao found some form last match.

 

[Sparhawk]

Afridi's batting finally clicked.. i would have liked a 50 but nevertheless he left his team in a pretty decent position. 9/over off 13 overs is quite getable.

 

[Dhonifan]

Amit mishar shud play for india soon...handy batsmen as well !

hes keeping the batsme quiet and that says something about him

 

[SwEeT CaNdY]

the match is boring now...or may be Asif comes in with a bang

 

[Ghoshtbuster]

9 balls since Afridi got out.........only 3 runs

 

[jackal786]

Sharma is a very calculating batsman. He will pick the right time to accelerate.

 

[Showman]

Gibbs is bowled by Mishra

 

[Sparhawk]

oops.. now its trouble.

 

[Sheikh]

This mishra chap looks a decent bowler.

 

[Dhonifan]

mishra bowls Gibbsy

its so heartening to see young indian players do better than the 'stars'

 

[Rana]

Afridi, should have used his brain....

hes done a job but once again he has just flopped it!

 

[jusarrived]

hes keeping the batsme quiet and that says something about him

now gets Gibbs as well...have been following his career for some time .......has a potential to be a very good bowling allrounder !

 

[Dhonifan]

Sharma is a very calculating batsman. He will pick the right time to accelerate.

yep, has a wonderful cricketing brain. reminds me of a younger dravid

 

[Sparhawk]

Whos this leggie, he looks 40 yrs old but hes bowling very well.

 

[Cryin Out Loud]

Same old problem with Deccan Charger bats. They

Cannot.get.it.done.

 

[TruSachFan]

i was saying all along
amit mishra would be better than chawla in tests

 

[12thMan]

good good good. Afridi still the leading scorer

 

[Ghoshtbuster]

Gibbo fails AGAIN, but i bet he wont be dropped

 

[Sparhawk]

Afridi, should have used his brain....

hes done a job but once again he has just flopped it!

He did use his brain for the first 13 deliveries. Those singles were a thing of beauty..

Afridi looking at the ball before picking his shot: priceless!

 

[Indiafan]

RRR is too high now

 

[jackal786]

Afridi, should have used his brain....

hes done a job but once again he has just flopped it!

 

[gibster82]

afridi gets out when he tries to hit it too hard...most of his boundaries were hit with shots in which he held back a little didnt go at it too hard.

 

[jusarrived]

rohit will have to play a special knock from here on to win this for the chargers !

 

[Sparhawk]

Sehwag looks like he's at the beach )

 

[lollol]

Afridi should have finished it

His wicket: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WZ-nOFpfRpg

 

[gibster82]

great shot by sharma - moving away to the leg side and just placing it through extra cover - sharma understands what 20/20 batting is about - about using the crease and your guard to disrupt the bowlers - i would compare him to misbah rather than dravid like someone else did earlier...dravid cannot play like this

 

[Sparhawk]

Rolly polly is outshining the likes of gambhir.

Two classy sixes! If only arun lal hadn't ruined it by mentioning "City moment of success"

 

[jackal786]

classical beast Rohit

 

[SwEeT CaNdY]

when will asif come back?

 

[lollol]

If i hear one more time "DLF maximum six" or "his city moment of success" i will go crazy...

Whats this with these commentators? They're really saying this over and over again. It eventually becomen extremely annoying...

 

[Dhonifan]

rohit not tonight man, save it for india vs pakistan

 

[TruSachFan]

rohitttttttttttttttttttttttttt

 

[Dhonifan]

run outtttt
not

 

[gibster82]

gibbs should bat at no. 5 for these guys with styris coming 1 down to stablize and rotate the strike with gilli or afridi and then having sharma coming in at 4 to accelerate the batting once afridi and gilli are out...then gibbs can come in and finish it with his experience...

 

[Sparhawk]

If i hear one more time "DLF maximum six" or "his city moment of success" i will go crazy...

Whats this with these commentators? They're really saying this over and over again. It eventually becomen extremely annoying...

They've sold their $oul$.

 

[jackal786]

Rohit has peaked too early? Hope he does well inone dayers.. I don't care if he fails in this ipl.

 

[Dhonifan]

run outtt yesss
not
