[Indiafan]

They have to bowl a well as last time and hope to get Guptill out early

 

[Sherazkhalid]

Seems bit too much work for the bowlers in this small ground, one guy needs to dig in and he can alone win this for NZ.

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Hobbits 155 max.

 

[Jabo]

Did they just show the next game is Friday?

Seems a bit excessive. 5 days off.

 

[cricfan14]

way way way way too low of a total for this ground.

Our fast bowlers are also just really expensive. Wahab is a really expensive T20 bowler. And Gul can get hammered too.

Geez Maqsood I hope you enjoyed losing this match for Pakistan

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Replace Maqsood, shehzad and Sarfraz ASAP.

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

So if Akmal opens next T-20 (which he won't because Shezzy ain't going anywhere) and Sohaib is dropped, who bats at 3, 4 and 5?

Yeah, seems ok as it is a weekend. The next two ODIs are on Monday and Thursday though.

 

[Red Devil]

We can only win if we get Munro and Guptil early.

 

[Madplayer]

Bowlers need to bowl out of their skins on this micky mouse ground

 

[#GreenRoars]

Target isn't a safe one, but good bowling can do some magic.

 

[Red Devil]

Gul to start lmao

 

[razabbas]

Starting with gul arghhh

 

[#GreenRoars]

Gul bowling first over.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Gul opening

 

[cricfan14]

Gul to start lmao

[ahmedwaqas92]

First ball and a good bouncer.

 

[Syed2015]

Umar Gal bowing the first over.

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

Pakistan has a plan against Gu(pti)l.

A Gul Special right under the bat.

 

[Sherazkhalid]

First over to Gul.

 

[Shafi]

Replace Maqsood, shehzad and Sarfraz ASAP.

Add Gul in the list as well

 

[#GreenRoars]

Guys relax, Gulldozer will bowl good.

 

[Red Devil]

That teamwork tho

 

[marlonbrowndo]

What a shot

 

[coy0607]

Good pace from Gul so far, and good line so far

 

[Sherazkhalid]

First over to Gul.

When one face palm is not enough.

 

[Shafi]

Gul opening will be murdered

 

[Syed2015]

Very good running.

 

[shaaik]

Again we didn't finish well today.. I mean last over and a half.. 180 looked a possibility here after akmal took 14 in first 3 balls on anti penaltimate over..

[uberkoen]

Munro will murder our bowlers on this ground.

 

[FreakCricket]

Gully gets bounce.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Dont give guptill any width...

 

[#GreenRoars]

4 balls and 4 runs, not a bad start.

 

[Sherazkhalid]

What a shot

Are you watching in the ground. Almost ball and half ahead of me.

Didn't start to well either. Think we were going at 5 an over in the first 10. Had we done better there we would've ended pretty well. In the end, only the last over went bad otherwise it was a good finish.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Amir will be difficult to handle today.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Yorker Gul

 

[#GreenRoars]

Good field settings for Gupti...

 

[Sherazkhalid]

Munro will murder our bowlers on this ground.

I second that. Not enough runs.

 

[Madplayer]

Impressive pace from gul 139

 

[imshally81]

[JibranAnsari]

Gul is such a rubbish bowler.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Dammit...... Why dont you bowl some bloody yorkers. Why the short rubbish on these short boundaries

 

[razabbas]

And here you go trundler is on it's way to lose this for us

 

[Madplayer]

from guptil. Why isnt he getting run out

 

[#GreenRoars]

And that's a

 

[Sherazkhalid]

For his age I guess so.

 

[cricfan14]

been saying this all night, wahab and gul are not good t20 bowlers - going to get SMASHED fast tongiht

 

[Sherazkhalid]

And that's a

There goes the over.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Naa ptv sports

 

[#GreenRoars]

Amir into attack now.

 

[Abdullah719]

Gul should bowl all his overs at the death. Why is he opening the bowling? Imad and Amir was fine last time. Why change a working combination?

 

[hamzie]

lets catch off amirs bowling tonight ples

 

[FreakCricket]

Gul shouldn't open bowling, should stick to playing supporting role.

[#GreenRoars]

Clever shot by Kane

 

[Madplayer]

Ordinary ball from amir

 

[daytrader]

Rubbish captaincy.why would he open with gul

 

[Syed2015]

Guptill possesses some dangerous aura. You expect or fear during he every ball, that he is going to smash it big. That may have to with his recent form.

 

[Sherazkhalid]

You win some lose some, can't win them all.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Amir straying too much on leg side

 

[#GreenRoars]

What's the point of short pitch devilries on this small ground??

 

[Madplayer]

140kph from amir

 

[PCP_1]

10 of the first over, This match poised to be an instant replay of the last.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Just dont bowl short

 

[Sherazkhalid]

He is trying to swing it too much.

 

[Madplayer]

Slower ball now

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

140kph from amir

and so begins speed watch for Aamir

 

[Madplayer]

No swing at all

 

[marlonbrowndo]

York him

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Afridi saying "neechay maro" is he telling them to bowl short?

 

[shaaik]

Last 9 balls.. of course the start wasn't well at all but this is how we play our cricket. With shazad and hafeez opening the batting u can't expect them to set the world on fire however having said that we still cd hv ended the innings on a high but as usual we cdnt

Amir or guptil?

 

[#GreenRoars]

Bring Imad please.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Or does he mean throw on the bounce

 

[uberkoen]

Gul is pretty much finished. He'll stick around I suppose till we find a decent replacement but can't really count on him much.

 

[PTI tsunami]

Got feeling guptill going big today
