PAK VS ENG 4TH ODI , 2nd INNINGS!

[Amjid Javed]

a jaffer, how did that miss the edge of bat or the stumps?

 

[Usman Chadda]

Beauty by Asif. How can these England batsmen miss those?! How come we manage to nick the ball all the time

 

[Amjid Javed]

Bell gets single, gives the Nightwatchmen one ball to face.

 

[CricketJunoon]

Bunny protection by Bell

 

[Usman Chadda]

Pietersen has one ball to face from Asif

 

[kasoo10]

Required run rate is now higher than current run rate. Just by a whisker that is.

 

[Amjid Javed]

woooo! The nightwatchmen KP some how survives!

 

[linuxaddict]

Bell loosing his concentraion.. get 'im

 

[Usman Chadda]

Man England have been extremely lucky today

All I can say. The bowlers haven't been bad, its just those damn English batsmen missing those unplayable balls

 

[Amjid Javed]

Razzaq on and bell drives 1st ball thru covers for 2.

 

[linuxaddict]

c'mon inzy. Do something.

 

[CricketJunoon]

Guys this is a lost game.....come on be realistic....I'm sure a miracle at this point cannot save us

 

[Bilsher007]

Asif bowling brilliantly but unfortunate not to pick bell up in his last over. Pakistan have only themselves to blame for this situation. Had they scored soemthing like 300 plus they would have veen better off.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Run out chance! missed by Hafeez!

Eng 160/2

76 needed off 97 balls.

 

[Amjid Javed]

agghhhh! bell get single to end over!

 

[Khalil]

Well played england. They desreved this win

 

[kasoo10]

I do not think Eng tail can bat that well. We just need a couple of wickets from here and it will be very compatative.

 

[evertonfan]

I do not think Eng tail can bat that well. We just need a couple of wickets from here and it will be very compatative.

Correct. England aren't home yet.

 

[Nice-N-Fresh]

Remember england are witohout Simon jones, flintoff, harmison, hoggard and vaughan...and we are loosing

 

[sharuk]

Why is bell taking a single off the last ball before every asif over. damn it

 

[Noman]

our back um bowler are bowling **** these days:

Naved-ul-Hasan 7 0 39 0 5.57 (1nb, 2w)
Abdul Razzaq 4 0 26 0 6.50 (1nb, 1w)
Shahid Afridi 3 0 18 0 6.00 (1w)
Shoaib Malik 2 0 11 0 5.50

 

[Bilsher007]

Thanks, Jenny Thompson. Here's Razzaq

Great over from Asif - had the batsmen in all kinds of trouble. Speaking of trouble, here's Will Luke

32.6 Mohammad Asif to Pietersen, no run, what a ball! Totally does Pietersen... who somehow manages to survive that one, no idea how... It pitched on a good length and was that far from kissing his outside edge Absolutely great bowling, peitersen was nearly OUT !

32.5 Mohammad Asif to Bell, 1 run, squirts a cut through point

32.4 Mohammad Asif to Bell, no run, well bowled again, just a hint of swing and Bell's completely done, but completely misses the ball, too. A jaffa

32.3 Mohammad Asif to Bell, no run, Bell is flirting with danger here - he just goes on his front foot and was drawn into a needless fresh-air drive

32.2 Mohammad Asif to Bell, no run, driven off the back foot

32.1 Mohammad Asif to Bell, 2 runs, short ball, quickly picked up and hit out to midwicket



It's offical peitersen has got a phycological block against asif !

 

[Noman]

all going over 5 a over

 

[TaZ]

I love our optimism!

 

[sharuk]

Remember england are witohout Simon jones, flintoff, harmison, hoggard and vaughan...and we are loosing

hogard and jones are NOT odi bowlers. and vaughan was out of form for a long time.

 

[TaZ]

Pietersen sh"tting himself at facing Asif here. Couldn't wait to get off strike

 

[samisback]

Remember lads, not over until the fat lady sings !

 

[Usman Chadda]

Remember england are witohout Simon jones, flintoff, harmison, hoggard and vaughan...and we are loosing

Not that much of a difference. Except for Flintoff I dont think anybody is that big

 

[evertonfan]

Remember lads, not over until the fat lady sings !

Rob Key isn't playing.

 

[CricketJunoon]

yeah right.....this game is over by a mile

 

[TaZ]

Not our day that's all

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

hafeez took a wicket and got taken out ...nice

 

[Rob H]

hogard and jones are NOT odi bowlers. and vaughan was out of form for a long time.

Jonah is an ODI bowler. He played nearly all the ODIs in the English summer 2005. If he was available he would definitely be picked.

 

[Uzi]

We need a miracle, which is not going to happen.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Remember lads, not over until the fat lady sings !

England need 69 more runs from 91 balls

We need a hat-trick from both Shoaib and Asif to win this match

 

[CricketJunoon]

Remember lads, not over until the fat lady sings !

The lady has sung many times over by now.....this is a lost cause

 

[BAADSHAH]

come on - sum1 might get a hat-trick!!! - stranger things have arrived.....

all it takes is 8 more special deliveries!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

 

[CricketJunoon]

I feel bad for Razi as he did so well to get our score in the repectable arena

 

[TaZ]

Pietersen looks like he's won the lottery now that Asifs 10 overs are over!!!

 

[samisback]

hafeez took a wicket and got taken out ...nice

Brilliant ))

 

[Rob H]

Lovely on-drive by Pietersen. Razzaq over pitched there.

 

[samisback]

England need 69 more runs from 91 balls

We need a hat-trick from both Shoaib and Asif to win this match

Never under-estimate the power of ranaldinho, he will come good , He has too now..

 

[iZeeshan]

Nice shot from Petey!

 

[kasoo10]

Looks like Peatersen can breath now.

 

[Amjid Javed]

KP dropped by Inzi!

poor stuff!

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

Jonah is an ODI bowler. He played nearly all the ODIs in the English summer 2005. If he was available he would definitely be picked.

[Usman Chadda]

Stop blaming the bowling guys! Its not their fault the batsmen put up such a disgusting display. 236 is a beliw par score nowadays and on a pitch as good as this, I think we dont deserve to even come close to winning

Bowling has been generally ok but the fielding and batting have just been pathetic

 

[iZeeshan]

Man, what happened! Pakistan!!!!!!!!1

 

[TaZ]

Vaughan and Simon Jones missing?!! Ok, pak are missing Wasim and Waqar!! Feels like they played more recently than vaughan and jones

 

[CricketJunoon]

inzi drops a catch

 

[samisback]

KP dropped by Inzi!

poor stuff!

just when you thought, it cant get any better.............

 

[akpower]

hafeez took a wicket and got taken out ...nice

he isn't a wkt taker and isnt troubling the batters. granted he got a wkt, but it was more a misjudgement from strauss rather then a great delivery from hafeez. we needs wkts, so we need our frontline bowlers in. simple..

 

[iZeeshan]

As a Pakistan, I have a bias of support. But honestly, they have NO chance at all.

 

[Usman Chadda]

England 173/2

Just realised Asif's ten over have been finished. Bye Bye Pakistan

 

[Uzzy]

Edit.

 

[iZeeshan]

Shoaib back on, but....

 

[Rob H]

Just think if this match was played in June it'd still be light out there.

 

[iZeeshan]

Any chance guys? Anything? I really need some lifting...

 

[CricketJunoon]

England 173/2

Just realised Asif's ten over have been finished. Bye Bye Pakistan

Its been bye bye since a long time ago mate

 

[CricketJunoon]

Any chance guys? Anything? I really need some lifting...

Nope!!!!!!!!!

 

[TaZ]

Nasser still backing us for a chance to win... Ha ha

 

[Rob H]

) ) ) Rana. My oh my oh my.

 

[Gunner786]

rana should do a remake of laurel and hardy

 

[TaZ]

*** was that fielding from rana ?!

 

[evertonfan]

Haha! That made my day.

 

[iZeeshan]

Terrible fielding that...

 

[jusarrived]

Englands win makes the fifth ODI interesting...this result is good for the series!

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

really...what a mess...we only have ourselves to blame

 

[Uzi]

How many times has Bell inside edged today?

England deserved to win this one.

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

series 2-2.....who would have thought taht

 

[iZeeshan]

series 2-2.....who would have thought taht

its 2-1 Pak, we can still win the damn series

in fact its really 3-1

 

[iZeeshan]

Just noticed that Razzaq did a LOT of dirty work!

 

[jusarrived]

Am slowly bcomin a fan of Ian Bell ...he seams to be in Rahul Dravid's mould!

 

[Nice-N-Fresh]

series 2-2.....who would have thought taht

Who said it is 2-2? It won´t be 2-2

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

next game is a day game

 

[CricketJunoon]

More important if we loose the last one as well we loose our place in the ODI ICC rankings as we get penalized to be beaten by a horrible one day team and thus team India gets to number 3

 

[iZeeshan]

Nice fiedling there...

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

no reverse swing...nada....typical typical

 

[MIB]

next game is a day game

when is the next match?

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

this just makes sunday so brutal
losing that game will be losing the series pretty much...where will that leave us for CT..we have to face South Africa first up...oh my
