Official Thread - Pak vs Windies (1st ODI) Pak Innings [18/5/05]

[bilal]

no big hits yet by these 2

 

[pakistani pride]

They need to set mini targest 180 first then 200 and so on..

and razzaq dont cur versus the spinners cause you cant play it straight

 

[Amjid Javed]

akmal gone

pak 168/7

 

[Raz]

Kamran gone.

 

[shan]

will we get 200?

 

[Blistering Barnacle]

Well it seems like only a few minutes ago I was saying we have only 20 overs left with Inzi, YK, Razzaq, and Akmal still batting/to bat. Now we have 12 overs left and only Razzaq out of the recognized batsmen.

 

[Amjid Javed]

rana in now

pak 170/7

 

[pakistani pride]

Damn this is sucha bad feeling

 

[Usman]

NAVED IN

 

[omidahomie]

Thr goes kamran akmal, i dont know wat happened, everythin was going alright, aur ek dam sai, i guess pakistan is still pakistan, just hope they can pass the 200 mark. There is no point in goin for singles and tryin to build a parntership now, i think razzak should get a litle more agressive.

 

[pakistani pride]

try to get 210 maybe we can defend that....

 

[Amjid Javed]

edged 3 for razzaq

 

[bilal]

has anyone noticed that most of pakistans batsmen have gotten of the mark on their first ball

 

[omidahomie]

thr goes rana, wat the hell man, this is so shitty.

 

[Amjid Javed]

rana gone lbw... poor sweep shot

gayle strikes

 

[Raz]

Rana gone Gayle strikes again!

 

[Khalil]

Arrogant Aloo must be wishing that Shoaib was in the team

 

[Blistering Barnacle]

Well I guess it is time for Razzaq to go for it now.

 

[shan]

can't believe X) X) X)

 

[Ayubi]

Explain what Al-ghazzali....our bowling attack is just as inexperienced as the Windies....and he have part-timers for spinners!

Do you really think the Windies fear our attack?

 

[zorawar]

This match is fixed

 

[pakistani pride]

HHHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO What is going on ???

Razzaq cut lose and try to get 200 from here we need 200 arleast

 

[alghazzali]

Shabbir will strike

 

[Amjid Javed]

beeray in now

pak 175/8 (39.5)

 

[bilal]

CUMMON RAZZAQ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[omidahomie]

loool, we start playin bad, and ppl start sayin its fixed, well these games are not fixed, thats for sure. razzak shud cut loose, and keep much of the strike.

 

[pakistani pride]

guys get 210 we can defend that but we needa another 30 to 40 runs here

 

[zushy_786]

This match is fixed

Zorwar stop being a moron and saying the match is fixed......

 

[Amjid Javed]

pak 177/8 (40.2)

 

[Amjid Javed]

single for beeray

pak 178/8

 

[shan]

guys get 210 we can defend that but we needa another 30 to 40 runs here

come on we can't defend 210

now it's time for us and pak team to come back on earth

 

[bilal]

another single of the first ball

 

[shan]

well who is batting bera or anjum?

 

[Blistering Barnacle]

The Pak attack IS better than the Windies attack imo. Rao, Rana, Shabbir will give Pak a chance.

 

[omidahomie]

anjum is battin, not beera,

 

[pakistani pride]

Why shan average score is 207 so 210 wud be a decent score new bal will swing we can do it inshallah right guys?

 

[Khalil]

Pak will be very lucky to get 200 from this position

 

[bilal]

doesnt anyone else find this forst ball of the mark thing weird

 

[pakistani pride]

25 from here come in 200 is what we need !!!!!

 

[Nauman]

We can defend anything around 200 easily the pitch is very tough to bat on and we just need to get 3 wickets namely Gayle, Sarwan and Chanderpaul and I am sure we will win then, this pitch is perfect for Rana, invariable pace with a bit of help for seamers and I am sure Rao will also do well here. Shabir will have to tidy things up he cant go on giving away no balls and wides.

 

[pakistani pride]

how much have we now?

 

[Ayubi]

BB, that's only cos we BELIEVE so as we have seen so much of these guys....

Some die-hard supporters of Windies could have the same opinions of Collins and Colleymore etc!

 

[shan]

don't expect anything from pakistan now

 

[omidahomie]

ya its a very difficult pitch, and the ball will swing in the early overs, so its a good chance for rana to impress. 200-210 is a competitive score, not a match winning one though.

 

[Amjid Javed]

*** is razzaq doing...! looking 2 slog!

just get singles and bat 50 overs!

 

[pakistani pride]

Well shan then you got not much confidence in our team ! ! !

I will say we will win till last run is scored mate

 

[Blistering Barnacle]

Ayubi, at least Rana ranks no. 12 in the odi ratings. That's pretty good and it's early in his international career.

 

[shan]

what is the score now?

 

[Amjid Javed]

pakistan move onto 184/8 now

 

[The_Cricket_Devil]

if we are doing this dont think windies wont have probs either it aint ova till its ova

 

[omidahomie]

i dont understand why roa is gettin so much of the strike, tuk and bhag, and once razzak gets on the other end , he shud go for smart boundaries not plain simple slogs. 185-8 43.0

 

[Amjid Javed]

pak 185/8 (43)

 

[shan]

only razaq will decide how much wendies have to chase

 

[pakistani pride]

so another 25 from here on come on !!!!!!!

 

[pakistani pride]

Well 200 is coming close !! !

 

[adi 101]

go razzaq go!!!!! another 20 or 30 runs we will have a decent score for this ground

 

[The_Cricket_Devil]

do it razzler!

 

[pakistani pride]

latest score???

 

[adi 101]

these two are doing alright

 

[adi 101]

188-8 of 43.4

 

[Ayubi]

Ayubi, at least Rana ranks no. 12 in the odi ratings. That's pretty good and it's early in his international career.

Ok, fair enough.....but still I'm not convinced our bowling attack is that far ahead of the Windies....

 

[adi 101]

out razzaq goes

 

[shan]

lara is bot there

so every west indies barsman will play well

 

[pakistani pride]

he lost it aswell now we can forget 200 !

 

[Raz]

Razzaq gone. Sarwan with an easy enough catch

 

[pakistani pride]

what is the score?

 

[adi 101]

these two should be able to get us to 200

 

[The_Cricket_Devil]

190/9 is wat i ahve thus far on cricinfo

 

[pakistani pride]

[omidahomie]
