[cricket.mad]

CATCH OF THE TOURNAMENT

A morale lifting catch taken by Asians.

Ending the inning on a high for Sri Lanka

169 to win.

Troll of highest order you are !!

 

[KingKhanWC]

Kiwis strong favs . Smart captain, great fielding

Lanka needs its star opener to succeed or its curtains for the home team .

70/30 NZ

 

[deltexas]

75 off the last 26 balls. Disaster for SL

That was some atrocious bowling by SL, crumbling under pressure

 

[DeadlyVenom]

no if SL qualify for Semis it will be in Colombo. Read the news

Thats good news. for once ICC is proactive and can sell tickets for the semi final even if Pakistan flukes its way in.

Bhai can you stop this asian word . I’m getting nauseous

 

[Champ_Pal]

NZ at least have a fighting total.

 

[Omer2002]

Santner reminds me of Nawaz.

In what way bro i mean one guy is class other a midget

 

[Bhaijaan]

Kiwis strong favs . Smart captain, great fielding

I think we are even steven here bro.
Let’s back our boys to chase this down

 

[Bhaijaan]

Bhai can you stop this asian word . I’m getting nauseous

We are pumped up tonight and we cannot be denied.

 

[Asif321]

Either lanka will chase it like a breeze which they did vs Australia or bundle out under 100

 

[Wasim Ghulam]

Thats good news. for once ICC is proactive and can sell tickets for the semi final even if Pakistan flukes its way in.

it would nt make sense for home team to fly for Semi while ICC was willing to accomodate Pak

 

[NeVerMind]

Kiwis score more than we did yesterday, despite them being in a worse position than us in the 16th over...but that's expected when you have the likes of Shadab, Nawaz and Usman down the order

 

[Bhaijaan]

Cricket is a beautiful game.

In just 20 overs we had a roller coaster ride. Sri Lankans made us all Asians euphoric as the spinners and Chameera ripped through the kiwis but later we got smashed to all parts by Santy bhai and Coochie bhai.

 

[batandballbattle]

inspired selection of relative unknown mconchie, santner quality as usual showing what a true AR is

difficult for SL now especially on a pitch that is turning

 

[globetrotter]

Lag raha hai ki aaj srilanka apnea ssath Pakistan ko bhi leke dubanewala hai

 

[shah9425]

If SL openers get a good start they might have a chance

Otherwise it's goodbye for both Asian teams

 

[Devadwal]

@Nikhil_cric is there any dew ? Lanka bowlers Bowled to too Many wides, full toss ,No ball in last 4-5 overs

In last 5 over batting seems easy.

I think Lanka can Chase this if they started well in PP

Chase is depend on nissanka.

 

[IAJ]

From 84/6 to 168/7 Lakh diya lanta

 

[CricVet]

If SL openers get a good start they might have a chance

Otherwise it's goodbye for both Asian teams

Probably all 3 by the weekend!

 

[deltexas]

NZ faves here.. Not easy for SL to chase with the pressure of a KO game. And NZ have an array spinners here - Santner Sodhi Phillips Mconchie . They will be tightening the screws here. If SL get this score, it will be a cracker of a game !

 

[Devadwal]

If India & Pakistan both get knocked out, will ICC schedule a 5th place match?

 

[RehanG]

Wicket became easy to bat. Lanka has a chance if they don't lose too many wickets.

 

[Human786]

Terrific by Santu . Can SL get 169 ?

NZ odds 1.57 .... a bit too thin ? Not such a huge target this !

 

[CricVet]

SA is the most deserving candidate of the cup. First they brought balance into the test team, then they worked on their LOIs - great planning will bring greater results

 

[Devadwal]

NZ odds 1.57 .... a bit too thin ? Not such a huge target this !

I back Philips player Point -35 yes.

Only score 18( 18pts) Need a wicket from his bowling (20 pts ) or 2 catch (10+10pts)

 

[Human786]

0/1

 

[JaDed]

outtt wow

 

[CricVet]

Wow...first ball

Where did this coochie bhai come from? Never heard of him before and he came and shattered Sri Lanka and Pakistan in one match.

 

[Human786]

0/1

The Sl Bradman goes ...

 

[Devadwal]

Nissanka gone for duck. 0/1

 

[Cryin Out Loud]

My usage of rhe word ‘Asian’ is conditional.

For example. Asians one dominated the game of squash like giants. We were champions!

But today look how far Pakistan has fallen in the sport…

 

[shah9425]

Nissanka gone

 

[CricVet]

Dagger in the heart

 

[RexRex]

What a ball.

 

[Bhaijaan]

OUT

First ball - Danda out of the ground

Asians under the pump in a tense chase.

It’s on now brother!

 

[JaDed]

Where did this coochie bhai come from? Never heard of him before and he came and shattered Sri Lanka and Pakistan in one match.

Lol Conchie

 

[shah9425]

It's over

 

[Wasim Ghulam]

Kiwis score more than we did yesterday, despite them being in a worse position than us in the 16th over...but that's expected when you have the likes of Shadab, Nawaz and Usman down the order

Shadab was decent with Bat. 10 Balls 23

 

[Kianig89]

Santner is no Agha , NZ are favorites

 

[Bhaijaan]

Dagger in the heart

And banana in the mouth, for Palekelle citizens.

In EVERYTHING

 

[GLORY OF '92]

How from 80/6 lol.

Terrible cricket by SL

 

[Cryin Out Loud]

If India also crashes out, the ineffable Jay Shah may, on behalf of the Asian bloc, have to request Naqvi to do another runner.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Where did this coochie bhai come from? Never heard of him before and he came and shattered Sri Lanka and Pakistan in one match.

He always had it in him against us, Coochie bhai put the dagger in our heart today. Honestly never heard of him before.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Where did this coochie bhai come from? Never heard of him before and he came and shattered Sri Lanka and Pakistan in one match.

Been around for a while. He was part of one of those New Zealand sides that toured Pakistan without their main players due to IPL

 

[Kianig89]

Pakistan team ready to book, From Kandy to Karachi

 

[prash88]

If SL gets eliminated today, they ll play dead rubber against Pakistan for pride. Don't see them losing all three in home.

 

[deltexas]

What a rippa first up, unlucky for the batter !

 

[Devadwal]

Our Chinese friend Chap helps out too

Yesterday you said I'm England supporters but today showing is your true colour.

 

[JaDed]

Such a small country but their per capita output is so high in sports and education.

To be honest, this is the Asian century regardless. Look at where Modi is taking us. Also AEW >> WWE run by proudly Asians

 

[Human786]

0/1 in ... any1 fancies a chase ?

 

[CricVet]

Busss...kar day bhai...probably, you had 2 much sugar in the morning

 

[shah9425]

They should be

 

[IAJ]

Seems like SL don’t know how their own pitches behave.

 

[KingKhanWC]

I think we are even steven here bro.
Let’s back our boys to chase this down

If they chase this know it will be special. Good luck

 

[batandballbattle]

wicket maiden first up, key man nissanka gone
qudrat mar chuka hai

 

[IAJ]

But still backing SL to chase this, just need a couple of camoes

 

[Bhaijaan]

If India also crashes out, the ineffable Jay Shah may, on behalf of the Asian bloc, have to request Naqvi to do another runner.

No matter who wins or loses, Chachu Mohsin Naqvi will secure the trophy and keep it locked in our Dubai office.

 

[JaDed]

Lucky there, maybe luck with Lanka?

 

[shah9425]

But still backing SL to chase this, just need a couple of camoes

Seriously

 

[G0rmintAunty]

Poor running by poser joker motu

 

[Human786]

To be honest, this is the Asian century regardless. Look at where Modi is taking us. Also AEW >> WWE run by proudly Asians

Since you deviated from cricket , do you still dream about the vile oaf BJ [ ref your TP post earlier ] ?
6/1 in 2

 

[Devadwal]

But still backing SL to chase this, just need a couple of camoes

Don't worry Lanka is going to win.

 

[SherWaqar]

Come on NZ!

 

[Human786]

6/2

 

[JaDed]

Come on NZ!

? Why do you want NZ to win?

 

[CricVet]

One more...bye bye SL

 

[Cryin Out Loud]

They aren’t making 100 at this rate

 

[Devadwal]

Aslanka Gone.

 

[shah9425]

[deltexas]

Henry on fire here !

 

[JaDed]

Bhaisaab … lol pathetic shot.

It’s a torture to chase in Lanka.. how did PCT lose?

 

[Bhaijaan]

OUT

Asians lose 2nd wicket

Kiwis on top.
Asians forced to eat banana.

 

[G0rmintAunty]

Atleast dont destroy the NRR lulloo SL

 

[RexRex]

NZ are so disciplined

 

[Asif321]

Stupid stupid stuff similar to Saim why you are in hurry you just chasing 169 . Giving away wicket

 

[CricVet]

Freaking at least up the NRR crazy lankans

 

[Bhaijaan]

My dreams are not ordinary dreams.
In my visions I have seen Nagendra do heroic things, some that haven’t yet actually occurred in real life
