Pakistan v Australia | 2nd ODI | Dubai | 24/4/09 | Pakistan Innings

[Deewana Mastana]

What a delivery by Bollinger - Good seam position!

 

[Amjid Javed]

Pakistan batsmen struggling against lack of pace and movement here!

 

[IAJ]

I will laugh if the pakistanis dont move the ball under lights, because the aussies are moving it in a big way in daylight.

 

[Lethal]

What a ball from Bollinger. These guys are bowling beautifully. Younus beaten again. Maiden.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

6 overs gone 13 for 1

Bollinger bowls a maiden!

 

[Legendary_Sage]

Not funny ! Butt is the modern day Inzi when it comes to running between the wickets - awful !

Butt is suppose to play like a senior player but he always try to put pressure on Khurram,Nasir, and today shehzad.
Inzi and yousuf were class batsman so they can be forgiven for poor runing.But on the other hand butt should be thrown out of the team.

 

[Garuda]

13/1 (6 overs)

Maiden over during powerplay.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Maiden over

13/1 after 6 overs..!

 

[godzilla]

younis beaten twice in a row by bollinger moving it both ways.

 

[On_the_up]

YK struggling, swishing and swiping away, needs to settle down.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

I think at the toss YK said anything over 200 would be good or even I think he said 200 would be good! Is that really so YK and Pak?

 

[IAJ]

two singles in two balls jippppppppiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

 

[saeed-sohail]

Our batting all at sea.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Butt is shaking and YK is sweating....

 

[abc_to_xyz]

lol... Ahmad Runout at 4... and we are playing very slowly... 15-1 on 6.4 overs. Butt Survived that ahmad runout...

 

[slix10]

Butt needs some good MJ to calm down,

hook a brothuh up Asif?

 

[Garuda]

four by Butt

 

[Ghoshtbuster]

Top order applying pressure to themselves again.

 

[godzilla]

wow, butt came out of his shell there...

 

[Deewana Mastana]

A bit of aggression from Butt and dances down and spanks it for a four!

 

[FAM]

finally some aggression by Butt

 

[IAJ]

finally some commen sense in butt saabs head, nice shot

 

[Garuda]

not aggression. More out of frustration shot.

 

[IAJ]

This bulldozer guy is bowling really tight and well

 

[abc_to_xyz]

Aussies are bowling very tight.... That bollinger is bowling 140 stuff.... with Awsum Swing...

 

[saeed-sohail]

Yes he said 200 at the toss which I dont agree with to me you should try your best and get as many as possible that afridi performance was once in your career thing.

 

[Sparhawk]

Seriously need to push that scoring rate... this is Australia we're playing can't count on Afridi to take another 5fer defending 250...

 

[Garuda]

edge ... 4444444

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Outside edge and runs for 4 - Lucky Butt!

 

[Saj]

Just a reminder folks. I know we are disappointed with Butt so far today but please cut out the bad language - thanks

 

[pak4life]

butt goes fishing again but gets 4 for his efforts!

 

[Sheikh]

Butt standing well into his crease. For a guy who's not that tall and loves to drive, that makes absolutely no sense.

 

[shabbu1]

Outside edge for 4 by Butt-man. Lucky to be there to be honest...

 

[slix10]

Yes, yes we are all glad the run-out tradition is here to stay.

Just can't live without it.

 

[TaZ]

7.4 Bollinger to Salman Butt, FOUR, lucky, the bowler deserved a wicket there, drew him forward with a tempting line outside off, Butt pushed at it hard, wasn't to the pitch, got a thick edge well wide of second slip, Bolly's done well

 

[Deewana Mastana]

8 overs gone 24 for 1

 

[FAM]

24/1

 

[saeed-sohail]

it looks like butt sahbs day a streaky 4.

 

[IAJ]

We are totally behind butt, but got irritated over his running. Now it is time to move on, hope he scores at least a fifty

 

[Ghoshtbuster]

big roar for Afridi on screen

 

[Deewana Mastana]

YK is really finding it hard to find the gaps.....can't get his singles either!

 

[Ghoshtbuster]

"Hes been 29 for 5 years" )

Dean Jones on Afridi

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Outside edge and runs for 4 - YK lucky this time!

 

[saeed-sohail]

younis struggling big time hope he does not throw this away now.

 

[tauseefm]

We are totally behind butt, but got irritated over his running. Now it is time to move on, hope he scores at least a fifty

Man i can't get over still. need some help else i will be throwing something at tv

 

[Lethal]

Dean Jones saying: Afridi's been 29 for 5 years.

Big nick for Younus. Gone for 4.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

"Hes been 29 for 5 years" )

Dean Jones on Afridi

That cracked me up aswell! )

 

[Garuda]

lucky escape for YK. Passed through slip for 4444

 

[shabbu1]

Outside edge from YK and luckily goes for 4. What is going on today!!

 

[Ghoshtbuster]

nice

 

[adeem_as]

Such a wide gap between indian and pakistani batsman in terms of technique and aggression.

 

[IAJ]

if these pitches become regular for pakistan then i`m afraid pakistan cricket is going nowhere, even pitches in bangladesh are not this slow. Players like sehwag, afridi and gayle can be handy here

 

[Plasma]

Is that Mahira from AAG?

 

[FAM]

Hopes the new bowler.

 

[Sheikh]

A 14 run over would be nice now.

 

[shabbu1]

Such a wide gap between indian and pakistani batsman in terms of technique and aggression.

I agree. Sad really

 

[abc_to_xyz]

Finally... Bowling change... Hope comes in... Cool time for Pakistani Batting now....

 

[Sheikh]

Shot of the day.

 

[Lethal]

Beautiful from Younus. 4 runs. Square drive

 

[shabbu1]

Finally... Bowling change... Hope comes in... Cool time for Pakistani Batting now....

I wouldn't be so complacent...He troubled us the last game

 

[FAM]

Good shot by Y2K

 

[tauseefm]

Short of the inning so far apart from shezads on drive

 

[Lethal]

Such a wide gap between indian and pakistani batsman in terms of technique and aggression.

They were saying we don't need MoYo. Yeah right. We need him more then ever.

 

[FAM]

Current partnership 29 runs, 7.1 overs, RR: 4.04

 

[Lethal]

Powerplay 2 taken by Australia. Bracken to continue. He is bowling wicket to wicket. Pakistan batsman need to improvise.

 

[saeed-sohail]

deano I luve you man. as a cricket pundit man ghalat nahin sochne ka.

 

[FAM]

Y2K has seemed to settle down.

 

[Oxy]

Ive just seen MIG at the ground - playing the guitar!

 

[Lethal]

Butt is so boring. He doesn't play a shot nor rotate the strike. He puts so much pressure on the other batsmen

 

[Lethal]

Ive just seen MIG at the ground - playing the guitar!

) )

 

[Lethal]

Shot Younus bhai. 4 more.

 

[shabbu1]

Ive just seen MIG at the ground - playing the guitar!

[saeed-sohail]

[FAM]

Shot by Y2k!

 

[Lethal]

Another boundary for Younus. Well played. Straight drive.
