Pakistan v Bangladesh | 5th ODI | Karachi | 19/4/08

[Easa]

Comical cricket

Gul bowls a no ball, and the batsman tries to hit it over the top but meekly hits it straight to mid-off, where Malik takes the catch and then takes off for a non-existent run. Poor cricket all around.

 

[Easa]

The only fool was Umer G - didnt appeal

Kami appealed, though...

 

[Easa]

GONEE!

Junaid smashes it straight to point, Butt takes a good catch. Pressure by Asif was telling, good wicket.

 

[MIG]

And Junaid goes....

 

[Oxy]

^ Im impressed MIG!

 

[Sparhawk]

another one for Asif. Is this a hat-trick chance?

 

[Oxy]

Aftab given :BW 1st ball

Asif on a hatrick!

 

[Easa]

OUTT! Asif gets 2 in 2.

Bucknor, with some very strange umpiring. Asif appeals like a monster, Bucknor has no response, eventually shakes his head, points to Aftab, before putting his finger up



It was out...

 

[MIG]

and Aftab goes for a ducky...

 

[Easa]

another one for Asif. Is this a hat-trick chance?

yes, he'll be on a hattrick first ball next over.

 

[Easa]

Amongst all the confusion, nobody commented on Aftab's shot. Poor, to say the last.

 

[Oxy]

3 down ! Gul gets TAmin

16-3!

 

[Sparhawk]

We'll have to wait till the next over.

 

[Easa]

Tamim also gone! Bangladesh in tatters...

16/3

 

[MIG]

was it out ? not according to the Bangla

but now Tamim goes...

 

[Sparhawk]

yes, he'll be on a hattrick first ball next over.

What do you think he'l bowl? Will he go for the stumps or that corridor outside off stump?

 

[Uzi]

To me that was lbw. It hit his back leg which was inline with off stump.

Playing across the line on his 1st ball and he payed for it.

 

[Easa]

Could have been 16/4. Edged for 4, just evades Misbah at second slip.

 

[PlanetPakistan]

Disappointing stuff from the BAN top order again.
Was that dropped by Younis?

 

[pakistanbest]

AG on fire

 

[MIG]

Bangla cannot break the shackles - mass suicide seems to be the way to go now....

 

[PlanetPakistan]

Could have been 16/4. Edged for 4, just evades Misbah at second slip.

Both bowlers would have been on a hat trick at the game time- wonder if that has ever happened.

 

[Uzi]

That lbw pic MIG has posted doesn't show the actual impact of ball on pad. It hit the back leg.

 

[Easa]

What do you think he'l bowl? Will he go for the stumps or that corridor outside off stump?

Damien Fleming mentioned this, when a bowler is on a hat-rick, they should always go for their stock delivery, because thats the delivery that they know the best... the one delivery they have most control over.

I think he's bowl it outside off, and hope for another edge.

 

[pakistanbest]

good agressive captaincy from malik. good fielding placements

 

[MIG]

while I am at it....

 

[Sparhawk]

AG on fire

Nice. Have to settle for AG.

 

[pakistanbest]

gul bowling at decent pace

 

[MIG]

That lbw pic MIG has posted doesn't show the actual impact of ball on pad. It hit the back leg.

I also doctored the pic...

 

[Easa]

Hatrick ball safely negotiated.

 

[pakistanbest]

Asif hat-trick bowl about to be bowled inshalalh he gets his hat-trick

 

[pakistanbest]

no hat-trick for asif

 

[Sparhawk]

That was his stock delivery, maybe needed some away movement to get that edge.

 

[pakistanbest]

11 wins in a row.

 

[PlanetPakistan]

Magic ball- Shakib gone

 

[Easa]

CLEANEEDD UP!!!

Shakib gone for 5

 

[Sheikh]

WOW. What a beauty by Classeeeeeeeeef!

 

[Sparhawk]

Wow!!!! Ooooh what a beauty. No one can target the top of off stump like Asif!!

 

[pakistanbest]

asif bowled

 

[MIG]

Bowled Saqib

 

[Sparhawk]

11 wins in a row.

 

[pakistanbest]

beauuuuuuuuuuuty from asif. cant get better than that.

AG is in full flow now just need the other A and we will be destroying the world.

great bowling from asif. he will do well in IPL if he continues to bowl like this

 

[pakistanbest]

asif proving all his doubters wrong that he is not a odi bowler

 

[MIG]

The story of Bangla Cricket?

 

[Easa]

Time for an Ashraful masterclass, maybe?

 

[crazul]

Thanks for the screenshots MIG

 

[PlanetPakistan]

that was FAST

144 kph yorker by Gul misses the off stump

 

[PlanetPakistan]

Quality shot by Ashraful- pulls Asif away for 4 runs

 

[MIG]

A nice shot- 2 Pathans wait for a chance....

 

[Easa]

Gul working up some speed.

*breathes a sigh of relief*

 

[MIG]

Thanks for the screenshots MIG

hope I am not annoying others with this - but fun for me!

 

[pakistanbest]

Nice screenshots MIG

 

[MIG]

And the 2 fasties - doing their job [ARY pls dont sue me - I have small children]

 

[PlanetPakistan]

Good stuff Mig!

Quality seam bowling this by Asif- i wonder how good this guy had been if he was from the 'uncovered pitches' era

 

[PlanetPakistan]

And the 2 fasties - doing their job [ARY pls dont sue me - I have small children]

I am sorry to say but Gul looks really really ugly there.

 

[Easa]

Commentators don't know the difference between seam and swing, which is quite funny.

Niether do Banglas batsmen lol

 

[Sparhawk]

Thats a great one MIG. You can tell just from that screen shot why asif is more accurate than gul. Because his head is more aligned with his body he's able to keep his balance through the delivery stride.

 

[Sheikh]

Wow Younus dropped one. Don't see that too often.

 

[MIG]

Dropped by YK....

 

[PlanetPakistan]

Should have been taken

42-4 after 10 overs

 

[PlanetPakistan]

wow thats quality stuff MIG

 

[Sheikh]

Wild slog by Ashraful. Miss that and you're gone!

 

[pakistanbest]

i heard musharraf was supposed to be here.

any sign of him?

 

[Easa]

Niether do Banglas batsmen lol

) ) sad but true!

 

[MIG]

Ok - time for Maghrib and ask Allah for forgiveness after stealing ARY footage ....back in 15 minutes....

 

[Sheikh]

It's almost Wahab Riaz time!

 

[Easa]

Good time for a newcomer to bowl, bring in Riaz!

44-4

 

[Easa]

Asif tries a slower ball but it goes horribly wrong, dispatched by Ashraful.

Asif beats him with a bouncer next ball!

 

[AliAbdulKhan]

Yeah, i also heard that Musharraf would be here....

Nice screens btw keep ip up.

ps: is that ARY USA? Cause my ARY UK doesnt look that good... quality wise

 

[Easa]

6-1-23-3

.. very well bowled!

 

[Sheikh]

How cute! DNA and Mushy sitting together!

 

[Sheikh]

Is Malik doing a Naumanullah to Riaz?

 

[FAM]

Thanks for the screenshots, MIG.

 

[Sparhawk]

I hope mushy kicks him.

 

[12thMan]

Oxy called them lottas and waved/saluted him back

 

[MIG]

Yeah, i also heard that Musharraf would be here....

Nice screens btw keep ip up.

ps: is that ARY USA? Cause my ARY UK doesnt look that good... quality wise

Off Dreambox and just got a bigger Sat dish installed -...

 

[Sparhawk]

Is Malik doing a Naumanullah to Riaz?

) he's gonna bowl himself and younis until the last over and then give him the ball.

 

[Easa]

Oxy labels DNA and Musharraf 'lottas'

)
