AJ - I have made your Thread STICKY, so it stays at the TOP, where it belongs.

 

[Officer Barbrady]

One or two may be fine but too many stickies would be a bad idea. This would automatically move back on top when the time comes.

 

[pakistani pride]

Any team news ?

 

[Officer Barbrady]

Yes PP the discussion is on a different forum. Hameed, Khalil and Younis Khan are in while Akmal, Mahmood and Hafeez go out. (source Noddy)

****...that sucks..we will get clobbered..and then our batsmen will succumb to the pressure of chasing such a high score, and then get out early..

 

[Civil]

[Civil]

Does anyone remember before the India series in 2004, people were saying Rao Anjum was an incarnation of Glen McGrath.

|-H

 

[Bailan]

Rana needs to be labled as atleast Medium Fast

 

[tahaqureshi]

hayden is only a shadow of his previous self

 

[Bailan]

Another Four .....

Anjum being put where he belongs

 

[tahaqureshi]

gilchrist just too good man

 

[tahaqureshi]

OUT!!!!!!!!

 

[Civil]

Shahid Afridi-ji takes an excellent catch

1/30!!

 

[Bailan]

damn .... still trying to connect to the video
thats suppose to be an amazing catch by The Afridi

 

[tahaqureshi]

rana gets teh breakthrough

but amazing deception by rana and amazing bounce

 

[Bailan]

I don't like the comentators calling Rana a mere 'mediam pace'

he is med

 

[tahaqureshi]

rana is bowling well Mashallah

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

|-F |-F catch dropped

 

[Schiller]

|-P

 

[ght]

is there anyone else out there who wants to see gilly go on and get a HUGE score.... just so that this bunch of amateurs realise the magnitude of their eff-ups!!!!

just once... only once... i would like to see one pakistan fielding performance with no fifth-grade mistakes!!!!

 

[tahaqureshi]

commentators saying that inzi's body language is very good to today

is there any truth to this?

 

[ght]

he hides down in the batting order....

he hides from standing in first slip....

my kingdom for a leader with a little oomph!!!

 

[tahaqureshi]

was that dropped catch by malik a good effort or a bad piece of fielding

 

[161]

gilchrist dropped for the second time....

 

[badxhah]

gilly droped again

 

[161]

gilli will make 200 today ...

 

[ght]

and dropped... again!!!!!! AAAAAAGH!!!!!!

 

[tahaqureshi]

these things are just so frustrating..

 

[exuberance]

its quite a low for our team...

 

[161]

popeye does it !!!

bye bye gilli

 

[Schiller]

At last!!

 

[Bailan]

no wonder the great 2 W's had all the reasons to only work for Non-assissted wickets ...

otherwise our playes would have dropped 350 of their total wickets ....

one thing i had expected in Pak team since teh woolmer takeover was our fielding adn that seems to be going down the fastest right now

 

[DM]

It seems to be the so called 'bits and pieces' who are doing the job and the 'specialists' lagging behind today. Where' Mishra?!

 

[Bailan]

need to quickly cut down on the RR ... cuz 82 after 15 overs is really bad for the bowling side

if they don't cut down ... then we are looking for another 340 score ...

may be a few more wickets can do the job ...

comentators severly critiszing inzi's "Traditional Fielding"

 

[Toony™®]

200 wickets for Razzaq

 

[ght]

OT: Wheres MecnunK

the importance of being akmal!!!

 

[badxhah]

marto dropped by MYK

dont get it why is he there kammy ws doin a good a jb

 

[Bailan]

it was a choice between A keeper who can prolly bat, a batsman who can't keep.

i duno why they went for the 2nd choice instead YoYo should have been rested if they wanted MYK in so badly

 

[badxhah]

100 % agreed OL

 

[badxhah]

On the fastest pitch in the world .... wat was BW thinkin

 

[Bailan]

i duno ... as much as i am for BW he seems to be making severly confused decesions ... examples including

1- Hafeez -- he was in the team after repeated failures, but as soon as he shows some promise, he is dropped

2- MYK brought in to keep ahead of akmal, who also has shown that he is capable of batting.

3- As soon as azhar showed some will to fight, he was left out as well ....


may be all these selections do make sense if Pakistan came in the ground to loose the game, cuz apprently the result of this game does not matter for the finals ...

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

GO AFRIDI

 

[Bailan]

Razzaq got one

 

[Officer Barbrady]

Razzak strikes Ponting goes played on.

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

C'MON RAZZAQ! i applaude the "bits and pieces" players

 

[Bailan]

Where is everyone????

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

asleep i think

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

we need to get Clarke asap. this guy scores quick

 

[badxhah]

Waqar commentary i love it

Chapple was rubbing it in with remiinding him of WC 03 match vs Aus and then WC 99 Final

On WC99 Final Vicky said Everything Untill SAeed Anwar Changed his Bat grip and wid that Pakistan luck changed.

On Rotation system Vicky said hayden is out of form does it help him when he goes out of the team and clarke opened the inning it put more pressure on Clarke

Go Waqar bahi

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

the partnership is building!

aus 149/4 (clarke is on 20)
