[HuZi]

Adeel: "Misbah and Shoib Malik should not try to do something extra they should just follow the normal pace of the match and they will easily win."

adeel u fool WHY not try to improve the rr to 4.6-5 is much better

 

[OZGOD]

Pak cruising to victory

 

[pakistanbest]

The Voice Dont Work On That, Good Quality Link Though!!!!! Thank You!!!!!

 

[Shayan]

i don,t know every time pakistan chasing under 200 always hard for them remember 2020 world cup

) ) )

 

[spectator]

WHY are they playing so slow? any reason? know that the target is slow but still why not make ik it 30 overs with a decent r of 5 in stead of the full 50 overs?

ball is not coming on the bat and its staying up and down also. not easy to control the shots.

444444444444444444444444444444444444

 

[spectator]

and look at the outfield. slow!!!!

 

[HuZi]

444444444444444444444444 finally

 

[Fallen King]

Adeel is right. Why unnecessary lose the wicket for improving the run rate when you just protect the wicket and stay there and the run will come by itself. Patience is virtue.

 

[Tapori]

hUZI- YK tried that as did Akmal - rash shots = wickets

Right now a defeat would be far more demoralising in the manner that we bowled.

Let misbah and Shoaib amble along in a tough batting situation.

Austrailia doing a good boa job

 

[HuZi]

what will happen if a wicket goes here? PANIC?

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Pakistan require another 75 runs with 7 wickets and 23.0 overs remaining

Required RR 3.26

 

[HuZi]

almost HOPES

 

[spectator]

there is no intent for singles as well. they need to show some urgency

 

[Umta]

Welcome boundary for Pakistan

 

[Umta]

By the way Nasir JAmshed injured are we gonna see Ahmed SHahzad making his debut

 

[pak4life]

malik should anchor but misbah needs to play the shots

 

[Afridi_Fan]

44444444444444444444444444444444

 

[Ghoshtbuster]

crowd goes nuts - on screen. Hitting himself in the face with a bat)

 

[saeed-sohail]

Right guys I am off to work make sure you dont throw this away now.a united win tonight and it will be perfect 24 hours for me.

 

[UP]

Why Symmomds and Clark are not bowling?

 

[pak4life]

the camera man is getting bored too! they need to concentrate on the cricket rather then the crowd

 

[HuZi]

Look at this hero... grrrrr

6-38

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Pakistan require another 70 runs with 7 wickets and 21.0 overs remaining

Required RR 3.33

 

[tauseefm]

malik goneeeeeeee, game is on..

 

[Ghoshtbuster]

out!!!!

 

[pak4life]

gone! thanks malik great innings

 

[Umta]

Pakistan in trouble now. Too slow batting digging them in

 

[shabbu1]

Malik edged and a fantastic take by Haddin

 

[HuZi]

Malik GONE

 

[checkers.llvllaster]

There is no reason Pakistan should lose from here even if Shoaib Malik is out. They need to play with a plan.

 

[HuZi]

Look at this hero... grrrrr

6-38

btw I think I'm watching at the best quality that photo I made with the print screen button

 

[JustAnotherFan]

Six or duck?

 

[saeed-sohail]

afridi in, need to phone work that I will be late.

 

[kashmiri_lad]

Malik..Bye Bye..

 

[UP]

This is getting nervy now...

 

[pakistani pride]

Crap !

 

[12thMan]

29.3 Hopes to Shoaib Malik, OUT, edged and Haddin takes a stunning catch! Tried to flirt with it and paid the price, a legcutter landing short outside off, he tried to run that past the keeper but couldn;t get it wide enough, Haddin dived to his right, and dived low, to pluck that with his right hand inches from the ground
Shoaib Malik c Haddin b Hopes 24 (53b 1x4 0x6) SR: 45.28

Pak 99-4 after 29.3 overs - need 70 more

 

[sehban]

now I would say AUS on top... with pak's fragile tail mustering up the rest of the 70 runs could be quite difficult to say the least

 

[Oxy]

Clear dissent shown by Hopes - was NOT OUT!

Hate the way the this particular Aus side is casting doubt on anything Pak related today.

 

[asifp]

we are making a mess of this. wow

their last wicket had a 50 run partnersehip

 

[HuZi]

omg first ball afirid VERY CLOSE

 

[kashmiri_lad]

@ Afridi
Look at the attitude mann..

 

[srh]

Malik-Misbah added 18 runs in 51 balls. Too slow.

 

[IronMan2009]

70 with 6 wickets. No way pakistan can lose this.

 

[shabbu1]

Almost goes first ball! Hopes bowling some fantastic leg cutters..

 

[HuZi]

afridi of the mark

 

[shabbu1]

70 with 6 wickets. No way pakistan can lose this.

Stop jinxing Pakistan

 

[checkers.llvllaster]

They should take the powerplay soon if they want to utilize the players properly...

 

[sehban]

100 up should have chosen an extra alrounder in the form of tanvir or arafat instead of rao....the rest of the batting looks so slim

 

[Oxy]

Clearly lots of Pathans in the crowd....

 

[checkers.llvllaster]

Afridi hits a FOUR!

 

[saeed-sohail]

4 afridi 444

 

[UP]

Afridi 444444444444444

 

[IronMan2009]

Stop jinxing Pakistan

No jinxing. Too many balls left. Just sensible cricket is required. With Afridi that is hard to expect though . But they should be able to scrap through if not convincingly.

 

[Oxy]

Fulltoss hit for 4 - off the mark - and another 4!

110-4

 

[srh]

100 up should have chosen an extra alrounder in the form of tanvir or arafat instead of rao....the rest of the batting looks so slim

or Fawad

 

[HuZi]

44444444444 afirid

 

[checkers.llvllaster]

Afridi in that mood today...hits a second FOUR in a row!

 

[shabbu1]

4 by the BEAST! Clarke bowls a horrid leg stump full toss and gets the treatment

 

[mamoo gogo]

what happened to Nasir Jamshed?

 

[UP]

Another four by Afridi nice pull shot

 

[saeed-sohail]

4 another 4

 

[shabbu1]

Another 4! Beastly...

 

[abc_to_xyz]

AFridi Batting Cool.... 2 Fours.....

 

[Big Daddy]

i missed dean jones

 

[HuZi]

one again 444444444444

 

[UP]

Defensive shot

 

[srh]

Beast will be MOM.

 

[kashmiri_lad]

Afridi,,you beauty..

 

[Oxy]

I'd like to see Afridi stick around for 10 overs.

Will go someway to proving to us that he's got what it takes - when the situation demands it

 

[asifp]

a beastly block

 

[Big Daddy]

these idiots should call the batting power play now

 

[Oxy]

Afridi - edges to 3rd man . 1 bounce - nearly out

 

[Sparhawk]

Looks like Afridi's taking a different approach than Misbah

 

[Ghoshtbuster]

Afridi imparting spin on the ball with his bat )

genius.

 

[abc_to_xyz]

We badly need Nasir Jamshed!

 

[UP]

As always Afridi giving heart attacks.

 

[asifp]

even the thirdman fielder wants to see Afridi bat
