SL bowler said something to Inzi in UAE ! Is he mad - the Pathan taxi guys will have him for breakfast !!

 

[tahaqureshi]

YK proving his critics wrong..very healthy strike rate for ODI cricket even after 42 runs... hats off to him despite this being only an exhibition match

 

[Guest]

i nzi gone

 

[whyhkk]

tossed up, on off stump, driven in the air but straight to deep midwicket fielder, Vendort took a sharp catch

Inzamam-ul-Haq c Vandort b Arnold (30 runs, 31 balls, 37 mins, 4x4, 0x6)

 

[arsal_pakfan]

***

moin out for DUCK...run out X)

seems like we have to settle with a score of 260-270!..not much batting left..though razzaq can get a quick fifty and get the score to 300+

lets see

 

[161]

inzi and moin comit suicide back to back ....

 

[Guest]

moim run out ***

 

[ImranR]

good return for moin RUN OUT

 

[161]

now time to watch razzaq play spin so gracefully as he does

 

[Guest]

MYK gets his 50 by a six

 

[Waseem]

It's perfect time for Razzaq to come and have some batting practice.

 

[ImranR]

Bandara to Younis Khan
well tossed up, down on one knee and lofted it over deep midwicket for a big six

 

[Adeel786]

Guys any live links please

 

[Rob H]

inzi and moin comit suicide back to back ....

X) ?

 

[Guest]

jakka gettign in full flow

 

[arsal_pakfan]

Younis Khan looking in gr8 touch today

and as Waqar Younis said today "What a superb season it has been for Younis Khan"

quite ritely!

 

[161]

razzaq goes the way on yoyo and inzi - tries to slog but hits it straight a fielder...

 

[ImranR]

Arnold to Abdul Razzaq
well tossed up, lofted it in the air to deep midwicket in the hands of Vendort he took his 3rd catch at the same position!

now abdul razzaq commits suicide

 

[Guest]

jakka gone

 

[arsal_pakfan]

Razzi gone..17 from 13 balls!



and as i write Kamran also gone...seems like we r not gonna bat full 50 overs

 

[161]

wow akmal gone - this is getting embarissing

 

[arsal_pakfan]

Akmal shows his supremecy...scores 1 more than what Moin scored and got out!

 

[Guest]

lol

kamran gone

we are ffalling apart

 

[161]

this is why i think is better to have afridi down the order..

we would do much better with YK at the top.

 

[Guest]

rao in

his stat say he can bat

let watch with interest

 

[ImranR]

Moin and akmal shouldnt have played in the same team.Its a waste of one position and now pakistan might not last the full 50 overs

 

[whyhkk]

we have no ballers

 

[Guest]

asim kamal should have played instead

 

[hello143]

^ or maybe Shahid Nazir as we have no ballers for todays game.

[Guest]

rao at least in rotating strike

 

[Guest]

MYk get a boundary

as the 300 edges closer

 

[arsal_pakfan]

all hops on Younis..he is playing on gem of an innings..sadly its an unofficial game..but this innings will help him a gr8 deal in Westindies..their bowling and fielding will not be better than this i think!

Srilanka fielded was excellent today..

 

[adi 101]

younis on strike 9 balls to go

 

[adi 101]

hes run out surely it goes to the third umpire anjum has lost the plot and younis should have left that for a wide!!!!!!

 

[adi 101]

yup hes out

 

[arsal_pakfan]

Rao gone...good comeback here by Srilankans!

they have really good batsmen ..i worry they can chase the target!..we have just two medium pacers and three spinners

 

[whyhkk]

we will not lose because malik made 68

 

[Guest]

yeah unless one of the wicket keepers want to bowl a few

 

[Guest]

291 to win

we will see

 

[Mercenary]

we will not lose because malik made 68

that only counts in proper international ODI's

 

[Muzy]

younis & malik played really well... shame i couldnt watch it stupid ARY only show first half n hour of the match

 

[ImranR]

2nd innings has started.Razzaq to open the bowling

 

[waheed]

Pakistan need to make use of the new ball, and make some early inroads into the Sri Lankan batting lineup.

The dew will become a factor later in this day night game, and it will make it difficult for the spinners to grip the bowl.

Pakistan only have 2 fast bowlers, so spinners will have to play an important role.

 

[ImranR]

Gone! lovely delivery, pitches outside off and swings away with some bounce, tries to play at it, edges it to keeper
Atapattu c Kamran Akmal b Iftikhar Anjum (5 runs, 5 balls, 7 mins, 1x4, 0x6)

 

[whyhkk]

nice

 

[SM]

good start for pak

 

[whyhkk]

Gone! great delivery, pitches on good length and nips back, goes through the gate and hits the middle and off stump

Vandort b Iftikhar Anjum (10 runs, 18 balls, 24 mins, 1x4, 0x6)

 

[ImranR]

Gone! great delivery, pitches on good length and nips back, goes through the gate and hits the middle and off stump
Vandort b Iftikhar Anjum (10 runs, 18 balls, 24 mins, 1x4, 0x6)

 

[whyhkk]

ood length ball, again driven on the up in the air straight in the hands of Afridi at cover

Sangakkara c Shahid Afridi b Iftikhar Anjum (8 runs, 8 balls, 9 mins, 2x4, 0x6)

 

[ImranR]

Iftikhar Anjum with three wickets now

 

[Oxy]

Awesome Anjum!!!

 

[Hash]

it was never in doubt that we were going to win this.

A Sri Lanka side that got bowled out by the Indian attack was hardly going to chase down 291. Don't know why people were worried.
