Boom Boom Noori!

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Shabir noori hit six,

 

[upper_Cut]

this hits only straight

 

[thecricket]

catch

 

[AZ]

tried to mow it over square leg but caught in the deep! too bad!

 

[upper_Cut]

and out

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Idiots. haha they hit six and then gets out.

 

[Ummer Khan]

pinzal wickaat .......

 

[AZ]

Noorie played quite well for 35 though.

 

[upper_Cut]

He is good prospect for Afghanistan considering he is only 19

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

I must say that I am pretty impressed by the technice of noori.
Well played.

 

[upper_Cut]

Mohammad Nabi comes in

 

[osee_bhai]

Their batsmen really lack temperament.

 

[Ummer Khan]

Idiots. haha they hit six and then gets out.

They are a young team, such things are part of their learning curve.
you should enjoy the positives and let go the negatives.

 

[AZ]

He is good prospect for Afghanistan considering he is only 19

he is their :umarakmal

This Sadaf has no pace. He's definitely nothing more than 80-82mph looking at the ease with which these Afghan batsmen have played him.

I guess his main weapon is the swing he gets from helpful wickets. Right now, Junaid Khan is definitely ahead of Sadaf Hussain in the pecking order. Talha has looked a better product in this game.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Sadaf leaks runs quite a bit!

 

[AZ]

seem to have decent pace I dunno why people were saying he's slow.

 

[D]

Fleeting thought - Talha and Hamad Azam look like twins.

 

[upper_Cut]

he is their :umarakmal

Different playing style

Noori hits straight which is good thing less risk, but Umar Akmal can hit anywhere

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Just what I was thinking of Sadaf's bowling of which little I have seen of it!

 

[AZ]

nice take from Sarfaraz!

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Sorry if my comment hurt someone. I agree its young team and they will learn from these mistakes.

 

[Ummer Khan]

Talha looks sharp.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

seem to have decent pace I dunno why people were saying he's slow.

You mean

 

[upper_Cut]

Impressed by Sarfarz

 

[D]

Fantastic bouncer by Talha a couple of deliveries ago. A little high but very well directed - and at good pace.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Talha seems to be bowling at a decent pace around 85-86 mph perhaps!

 

[Ummer Khan]

square leg de fielder mojood de....

 

[AZ]

You mean

83-84 mph to hoga.

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Now Azan.
Namaz ke liye jao.

 

[Ummer Khan]

azaan time in KABUL

 

[Deewana Mastana]

83-84 mph to hoga.

I'll say max 82 ka lag raha hai abhi toh!

 

[AZ]

181/5 10 overs to go!

 

[Deewana Mastana]

I quite like Yasir Shah's action though! For a sec, it even reminded of

 

[Markhor]

AFG 181-5 | 40 overs

 

[upper_Cut]

240 or 220

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Talha is still pretty skinny! Our bowlers or players in general aren't the sort!

 

[Ummer Khan]

83-84 mph to hoga.

No way is he in the above mentioned range. He is definitely slower than that. WAQAR has also advised him to up the pace a little, first time seen/heard advising somebody do so.

 

[AZ]

pulled out of the ground!

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Talha hammered for a six!

 

[Ummer Khan]

shpuugggggggggggggg

 

[upper_Cut]

6

 

[Deewana Mastana]

A nothing delivery gets the treatment!

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Sat up nicely for the batsman to get slapped!

 

[AZ]

good comeback, right in the blockhold.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Is this being played in Islamabad or Karachi?

 

[upper_Cut]

cricinfo catching up now

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Just checked it's Faisalabad!

 

[Mian Hassan]

i can't wait for the batting to start

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Good Comaback after being for a six.
9 overs left. Lets see some exciting cricket.

 

[Mian Hassan]

lets see what sharjeel khan and babar are made off

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

I see Afghanistan don't have their two fast bowler Zadran and Hamid Hassan.
I think they will struggle.

 

[Mian Hassan]

Nabi is a good hitter we need to send him back to the pavillion

 

[AmmarAshraf]

Score please

 

[AZ]

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Another wicket lost while they were showing adds.

 

[AZ]

188/6 Yasir Shah with the wicket.

 

[Mian Hassan]

lol they missed the out

 

[AZ]

howzaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat! that looked plumb!

 

[Mian Hassan]

Yasir Shah looking good

 

[Ummer Khan]

Fourrrrrrrrrrrrrr

 

[thecricket]

[AZ]

paddled fine.

 

[Ummer Khan]

PASHTANAY BANK.......would love have an account there some day

 

[upper_Cut]

4

 

[Deewana Mastana]

I would like them to get around 250 so that it's more of a contest for the Pak A batsmen!

 

[Mian Hassan]

i think sadaf will get spanked now

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Sadaf looks tall like Talha but needs to bulk up and get a bit of pace in there!

 

[thecricket]

:6

 

[Deewana Mastana]

What a shot!

 

[upper_Cut]

nice six

 

[Mian Hassan]

what did i say???

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

That was beautiful six.

 

[AZ]

elegantly lofted over mid-off

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Sweetly timed off the bat!

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Sadaf needs variation

 

[upper_Cut]

200 up for Afghanistan

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Still just 21, can improve and come back more stronger!
