ODI 1: Pak innings Cochin, scoreboard and discussion threa [1/04/05]d

[sajjad]

and Arshad khan smashed away for a SIXXXXXX AND A FOURRR

41 in the last 4 overs

 

[Raz]

Expensive over that from Hafeez. India are looking very good. A score of 300+ is looking more and more likely.

Im starting to think maybe Sehwag might even get to his 200 considering the amount of lucks hes had!

 

[161]

arshad getting the treatment now X) X) X) X)

 

[sajjad]

the luck plus his form and sensible batting.

 

[Raz]

It was a good batting surface so was to be expected. Not getting Sehwag early is costing us dearly. I did say before the match started that we needed to get his wicket early on. We havent and we are paying the price for it big time!

 

[w4s1m786]

india look good for 325 know

 

[Annie]

well sehwag no doubt is an amazing player...that is why he shud never be given chances...we already have suffered at the hands of his 309!

 

[161]

we need another attacking bowler like shabir in our line up.

 

[sajjad]

yes absolutely Raz. we shud have had him early...twice or maybe even thrice...
lets see if we can stop this onslaught

 

[Guest]

they ha ve gone on the defensive not very well though

 

[Raz]

Inshallah we will. He looks to be tiring according to Dawn commentary so maybe he might end up getting out playing a big shot soon.

 

[sajjad]

Match referee Chris broad...having an animated discussion with BW..
ne news on what its about

 

[tahaqureshi]

26.6 Hafeez to Sehwag, no run, goes for the big one and misses, looks like Sehwag is tiring and is going after everything here

 

[Raz]

Probably wants to report a Pakistani bowler about his action.

 

[sajjad]

itll soon be known i guess

 

[sajjad]

theyr batting so well

getting the singles and doubles in between the boundaries...

hardly any dot balls
whats beautiful batting from these VERY INFORM BATSMEN

 

[161]

Probably wants to report a Pakistani bowler about his action.

hope its hafeez

 

[Annie]

Probably wants to report a Pakistani bowler about his action.

probably hafeez.... X)

 

[tahaqureshi]

but everybody is saying that the baatsmen are getting too tired

 

[octavian]

WHAt the HELL !! came back after an hour. and the score is 167-2 after 29 ???

what are you guys doing ?? ?

 

[sajjad]

they are but theyr still smashing the ball all over the park

 

[Annie]

well dravid plays easy...sehwag gets restless so if he seems to be tiring...he's likely bored...which is good....

the best way to get him out (besides taking catches he gives us) is to restrict him enuf so he throws away his wicket...and we haven't really been able to do that either...

 

[sajjad]

record 3rd wkt partnership of Ind vs Pak

 

[Raz]

If they do get 300 then maybe Shahid should open and get the innings off to a good start.

 

[Blade Bhai]

this is a batting beauty. india needs 300 minimum to have a chance

 

[sajjad]

what a smack by sehwag

 

[sajjad]

close call for Dravid....
amazing throw be afridi.

 

[Rob H]

Goin to the third umpire. not out though

 

[Guest]

sehwag hitting boundary then a single to chil for a bit

good thinking]

 

[Rob H]

Indians on the field on the 4th ball

 

[Annie]

inzi arguing with billy bowden, he really hates that umpire for some reason.

 

[HAFRIDI]

Bob

hehhehe...to the point

 

[Raz]

Sehwag gets his 100. Has been very lucky, reminds me of that Symonds 100 at Lords last year. A lot of big shots but more importantly many letoffs as well!

 

[Blade Bhai]

congrats to him . good innings

 

[w4s1m786]

well done sehwag made the most of his chances

 

[Annie]

well all credit to sehwag...he knows how to capitalize...and he's done it well as usual...

 

[161]

[ i hope shoaib and shabir have their visas and plane tickets ready - because these flat tracks aren't made for bits and pieces bowlers.

 

[octavian]

things not looking good for Pak. We need 2 or 3 quick wickets here.

 

[sajjad]

18 overs to go...
190 already

we need to put the brakes on them fasttt

 

[Annie]

i don't think afridi shud open either...

he's gonna be more vital at 6 or 7...in ODI's that is his spot...and hopefully even today, they will stick to that...

 

[Obeid]

any free video links

 

[w4s1m786]

[ i hope shoaib and shabir have their visas and plane tickets ready - because these flat tracks aren't made for bits and pieces bowlers.

we still got the dangerous rao to come in to scare tendulker and sehwag

 

[161]

india are set for 350 if we dont get a wicket fast !!

 

[sajjad]

yeah afridi shud come on a bit later

 

[tahaqureshi]

but for pak..we have amazingly hafeez in our batting line up

 

[Raz]

Hang on we havent lost yet have we?

 

[161]

[ i hope shoaib and shabir have their visas and plane tickets ready - because these flat tracks aren't made for bits and pieces bowlers.

we still got the dangerous rao to come in to scare tendulker and sehwag

imagine if we had rao and khalil both

 

[Blade Bhai]

guys (and annie) its a small stadium. have faith in ur batsmen

 

[sajjad]

17 overs to go..

6 an over will get them to 297.
we need wickets to restrict them to much less than that.

270 shud be chaseable!

 

[ali kc]

Hafeez X) X)

and why are we playing arshad khan! should be his last match in this series

?

 

[Annie]

we still got the dangerous rao to come in to scare tendulker and sehwag

oh yea, dangerous dangerous rao )

and of course hafeez will get his 100 today as well...

 

[Imy]

when will Pakistan learn how many times have we dropped Shewag in the last one year, ten times may be

 

[Obeid]

any audio or video lnks

 

[Annie]

guys (and annie) its a small stadium. have faith in ur batsmen

frankly, I wud have loved to have yk instead of hafeez...he's done nothing with the ball (yet) and will likely do nothing with the bat either...

afridi, razzler, inzi, malik and butt...sure there is hope...but also depends on how large of a total...have said already that we are good chasers...it can be done...lets see wat kinda total sehwag takes india to...

 

[badxhah]

we have drpped shewag 10 times he has scored 1000 runs in both form against us wat a batsman

 

[sajjad]

dont forget Dravid...

 

[Raz]

201-2 after 34 run rate 5.91!

 

[Naz]

Big total on the cards.

320 +

 

[alghazzali]

we can chase it down, i guarantee

 

[Annie]

i wud even say a total of 350 so long as sehwag is still there...

after he goes...well anything is possible...but dravid seems set as well..

 

[w4s1m786]

predict indias final score

327 for 6

 

[sajjad]

afridi shud have been there to get that RUNOUT..

 

[alghazzali]

I predict 345/4

 

[ali kc]

Hafeez need to go home and practice throwing at the stumps for whole year and then told to ***k off!

 

[sajjad]

293/7

 

[161]

thats the second time he missed teh stumps on a throw out chance

 

[Amjid Javed]

india are gona get 340 here i recon

 

[Blade Bhai]

aao amjid aao. my prediction 278/8

 

[Annie]

actually sami, even razzaq after that awesome dismissal in tests...any1 but hafeez shud have been there and they wud likely have gotten the run out...

 

[sajjad]

according to aamir sohail

Razzaq recored from the cramp in 23 seconds..lol
thats quick recovery time

 

[Naz]

sehwag bowled

 

[Raz]

Sehwag finally goes!

 

[sajjad]

RAZZAQ gets Sehwag finally

 

[Blade Bhai]

chalo ab collapse shuru

 

[Bailan]

GONE !!! Shewag ...

 

[HAFRIDI]

WOOOOHOOOOOOOOOO OUT SEHWAG RAZZAQ!!!!!!1

 

[w4s1m786]
