Pak Vs Sri Lanka | Part 2| Pak Innings!

[samisback]

we have managed to restrict em to 253, which looks chaseable enough, at one stage it seemed as if lankans would score 300 plus .

 

[samisback]

good fight back , by Pakistani Cheetah's

 

[Easa]

Good fight back by Pakistan. We can chase this!

C'mon Pak!

 

[UJ]

The key will be a good start, something that we can build on.

If we keep wickets in hand, then we should get there!!!

 

[invincible]

its not going to be that easy ... especially if part time bowlers like hafeez and malik can cause problems to batsmen like sangakkara and atapattu, i am sure murali would be more than handful ... and jayasuriya wouldn't be that easy to face too ...

 

[samisback]

yes, if we dont lose to many wickets in the first 15 overs, i says game on.

by no means, an easy target under lights, against the likes or murali , vaas and co!

Hafeez is underrated bowler becasue he goes opening

 

[infamous9383]

Who will open?

 

[samisback]

Who will open?

Farhat & Hafeez , as far as i know.

with afridi coming in at 5.

and malik at no .6

No negativity from the neighbors in this thread please. I'm sure we can chase this, unless we decide to foolishly send Afridi up the order or something like that.

 

[inzidabest]

If there is dew Pakistan should win. If not Afridi innings needed

 

[majalani]

If my memory is correct Pakistan has won last 7 out 8 where they have chased, one of the Pakpassion data guru will correct me I am wrong

 

[inzidabest]

id open with Afridi because he wont have much idea about Murali bowling to him

 

[infamous9383]

Razzaq seems to bowl better when he is not with the main boy

 

[sehban]

i m scared of malinga in the start..if the bowl swings then it might be hard for pak to chase this total but if they get a good start & not lose many wickets around the 25 over stage around 100-110 for no more than 2 wickets..i say pak will definately win this but if pak loses early wickets then this game is gone...

 

[samisback]

id open with Afridi because he wont have much idea about Murali bowling to him

Wont be such a bad idea, but hey you never know .

i mean using freedi up the order, might work it might not, Huge element of risk involved, a Big "IF"

 

[inzidabest]

Extras and dropped catches a huge concern for me. Coach to be blamed

 

[infamous9383]

I wouldn't open with afridi because if he fails than hell say he didn't know where he was batting and it is not like were chasing the 340 anyways.

 

[samisback]

Extras and dropped catches a huge concern for me. Coach to be blamed

it all can be forgiven, after a smashing victory, for the day at least, we better not go there , at least until there is a result to this ODI.

 

[infamous9383]

worst thing for Pak would be lose this match it would shift all the attention back onto to the recent debacles

[Gunner786]

i see razzaq getting man of the match for his 4 wickets and his unbeaten brutal 100 * not out

 

[infamous9383]

i see razzaq getting man of the match for his 4 wickets and his unbeaten brutal 100 * not out

actually im hoping it doesnt get that far than we will probably be 6 or 7 wickets down

 

[Nawazb]

any idea on when pak start batting?

 

[inzidabest]

15 minutes from now. I hope farhat bats well

 

[Salman]

I won't be counting on an agressive start if afeez is opening, lets hope we can see off new ball with any casulties..

 

[Muyazzim Khan]

Anyone know if the boys are fasting ? If they are then bowling these conditions while fasting is tantamount to a miracle.

 

[Muyazzim Khan]

I won't be counting on an agressive start if afeez is opening, lets hope we can see off new ball with any casulties..

Wickets in hand is the key not aggression. Sri lanka went off to a flier but couldnt post a mamoth total as they lost wickets.

 

[inzidabest]

I hope there is lots of dew

 

[samisback]

The lankans are out, the umpires are out
