New Zealand vs Pakistan | 5th ODI | Hamilton| 03/02/11 | Pakistan Innings

[Decipher]

Shukar hai...

As I said .... Misbah will get out SOON AS he tries to play fast.... same goes with Younus Khan

 

[kaalakawaa]

See

This is the problem with playing with such a low SR

If you get out early, you have wasted 30 odd balls that can make a difference between victory and defeat

 

[qaiser]

Scott 'McGrath" Styris again

 

[Hamxa89]

Iss chotay ground ko toh clear ker lena tha Misbah

 

[nads_rocks]

Take it easy man, he won us the last game.

He won us the match bcoz he was playing how he should in an ODI and according to the match situation.

He's torture and annoying to watch.

He is capable of rotating the strike but he doesn't.

He is much more capable of hitting the boundaries and clearing the rope but he doesn't.

All this creates pressure and slows the run rate down way too much.

All that results in his partner on the other side trying to up the run rate and results in a wicket.

He should realise the difference btwn TEST and ODI, he may have played a match winning knock last game but he shud now continue this ODI form and not go back to sleep on the crease.

 

[TigerJat]

uncle misbah gone, today was not his day, he was not timing it well,

 

[Liverpool_Faizan]

slow but neccesary innings from misbah

lets see how afridi and razzler get on.

 

[Sledger]

Repeat of 2 games ago will do nicely. :umarakmal

 

[usman303]

faced 43 balls for 24 runs

 

[Fawad2010]

Time for some hitting!

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

last 10 overs, razzak, afridi, akmal will destroy the kiwis now, 120+ more please

 

[Red Devil]

Lala is in hope he fires today

 

[godzilla]

v good catch. really difficult to know what a good score is here given the ball isnt coming on. i guess we wont know till the end of the game whether misbahs slow batting was a problem or not. afridi umar and razzaq after all can do anything between all being out in an over to going at 12 an over.

 

[nads_rocks]

Thats it he's out now time to take the powerplay and get to 300+

 

[Sledger]

Afridi is the new man.

 

[Hamxa89]

If Afridi tries to hit without taking the PP; it'll be stupidity of the highest level

 

[MIG]

the dependable Misbah gone - our fate now rests with Mr. Afridi. God help us.

 

[ZAK]

Afridi off the mark.

 

[usman303]

BOOM BOOM they should take pp after dis over

 

[AZ]

They've been pretty kind at my end.. And here he goes

where in Pak do you reside?

 

[IM NOT YOU]

do we know that a batting powerplay exists?

hello afridi?

 

[ZAK]

207/5 after 40 overs.

 

[Decipher]

WAPDA is hell-bent on ruining my happiness.

missed the six from Shezzy in the last match.
missed the final winning hit from Sohail.
missed the 100 from Shezzy today.

Generator lo bhai ... its foolish to depend on WAPDA

 

[Sledger]

207/5.. just 5 off the over.

 

[Hamxa89]

Great catch that was

 

[The Slogger]

207/5 at 40. settle in for 2 more overs, then call powerplay

 

[Hamxa89]

where in Pak do you reside?

Lahore

 

[Sledger]

Oram taken out of the attack. )

Ah, memories..

 

[IM NOT YOU]

yes lets wait for all our wickets to fall while trying to slog and THEN take the batting powerplay when its too late

great captaincy afridi/great coaching waqar

 

[cricfan4ever]

need minimum 93 in last 10 overs!

 

[ZAK]

Mills back on.

 

[usman303]

pp not taken

 

[Sledger]

Mills replaces him.

 

[Hamxa89]

do we know that a batting powerplay exists?

hello afridi?

Dude, let him play a few

 

[Fawad2010]

That catch was dodgy but I m not complaining...

 

[Genghis]

Yet another wicket which may not have fallen if we had taken the powerplay!

 

[Sledger]

Dot ball.

 

[nads_rocks]

Take

The

Damn

Powerplay

 

[Fawad2010]

Ruin his Bowling figures!!

 

[Sledger]

2 dots.

 

[ZAK]

1 to Akmal.

 

[d0gers]

That catch was dodgy

No

 

[The Slogger]

come on

 

[Sledger]

They get one, Afridi on strike.

 

[kaalakawaa]

take PP for god sake

 

[Hamxa89]

Afridi should NOT try and hit without taking the PP.

 

[nads_rocks]

Take Powerplay

Take Powerplay

Take Powerplay

 

[Sledger]

What an over 1(5)..

 

[The Slogger]

hes unsettled afridi, hes gonna go for it last ball now

 

[MRSN]

Afridi playing very well with eyes closed

 

[AZ]

Lahore

Lahore mey kidhar? DHA?

 

[usman303]

was that only 1 off the over?.

 

[Sledger]

Just one off it.

 

[The Slogger]

1 run off it ... call the powerplay naow

 

[Sherazkhalid]

300 looks in danger now, both afridi and umer not clicking.

 

[saj001]

1 off the over

 

[ZAK]

208/5 after 41 overs.

 

[hur rizvi]

wth 1 run from 41st over


take the power play

 

[khizer123]

we need a good total.........................

 

[Red Devil]

For God's sake take the PP now

 

[Sledger]

Overs like that will hurt on a wicket like this. Pakistan also have 3 quick bowlers who could travel on such a small ground. Defending 280ish will be hard.

 

[saj001]

still no powerplay

 

[nads_rocks]

Afridi... Power PLAY

Afridi... Power PLAY

TAKE, TAKE, TAKE

 

[ads101]

take powerplay

 

[ZAK]

Single to Jr.

 

[Genghis]

Wrong

Australia took it at 42 overs

Please check your facts

Sorry I meant England took it early yesterday.

•Powerplay 3: Overs 34.1 - 39.0 (Batting side - 43 runs, 1 wicket)

 

[Sledger]

Almost bowled him..

 

[The Slogger]

afridi needs to back off and hit straight, hes lost his sweep slogs

 

[Sherazkhalid]

oops afridi misses.

 

[hur rizvi]

Why are they not taking power play afridi will play the same way so get the fielder in the circle pathetic stuff really

 

[kaalakawaa]

dude, if you wanna sweep, why not take PP now

 

[Sledger]

Styris is just a beast.

 

[MRSN]

 

[saj001]

sixxxx

 

[Hamxa89]

This is just idiotic stuff by Afridi.. Smashing them with fielders on the boundary.. Bring 'em IN

 

[Red Devil]

[Sledger]

Wristy flick for six. )
