Pakistan v England | ICC World T20 Super8: Match 1 | Bridgetown | 5/6/10| Eng Innings

[Momo]

So Pakistan has scored 147/9.

England 148 to win.

 

[its.raja]

good total under the circumstances

 

[Sledger]

Pakistan have something to bowl to. Asif's opening spell and the spinners hold the key.

 

[mrk]

i think feilding hold the key

 

[Desire]

engliand will chase down the score in 18 overs

 

[Momo]

I wanted 160 at the start. Then it looked like they will get 125.

Thanks to Ajmal they have 147. Match is on!

 

[iRfaN_LA]

man I was so pissed off ..I turned my PC off once Amir got out but Ajmal did blast a few useful runs in the end. This will be competitive i.a

 

[Momo]

Ajmal's Bothamesque SIX was amazing! )

 

[khaleelrs]

omg ajmal six in the end made my day.i wonder how did you get some much distance with that shot lol

 

[Pak_Power]

Ajmal the unlikely batting hero for PAK.

Now he needs to win it for us with his bowling. Inshallah

 

[imshally81]

i think 148 is very defensible score on this track

 

[Pak_Power]

Pak needs early wickets. Can not contain them, need wickets at regular intervals.

 

[cricketpassion]

We have scored more runs than Aus and South Africa mangaed against BD and Afghanistan respectively yesterday at the same pitch

 

[saeed-sohail]

Time for afridi to earn his position.

 

[Pak_Power]

Anyone knows what is the par score on this ground for batting first?

 

[SpiritOf1903]

Time for afridi to earn his position.

which bozo gave him captaincy ?!

A liability if ever there was one - non-existent batter and sub-standard bowler!

 

[imshally81]

we don't have 5th bowler

 

[Pak_Power]

i think 148 is very defensible score on this track

InshaAllah we will do it

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Get 5 wkts in first 12 and we can fight. Only think which is worrying is the small boundaries.

 

[cricketpassion]

Razaq is opening the bowling

 

[Lethal]

Abdul Razzaq opening the bowling.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Razzaq opening?

Aamer on for Morgan and co possibly?

 

[chui_kadoo]

Razzaq needs to be right on the money here with the bowling

 

[WithLoveFromCanada]

we defended 140 odd against SA last year, so I believe we can do it again.

147 is the highest total in T20 international on this ground so we should be positive. However we need early wickets.

 

[Lethal]

Ajmal's Bothamesque SIX was amazing! )

)

Unique.

 

[imshally81]

Abdul Razzaq opening the bowling.

really ???

 

[Lethal]

Lumb to face.

 

[chukandar_gosht]

is this the knockout round?

 

[Sledger]

Brave and positive move if Razzaq is opening, could go for a few but it's worth the risk for me.

 

[WithLoveFromCanada]

aamer to bowl yorkers and left armer angle making it difficult for morgan, prolly thats the mindset. I think its a good move.

 

[<< Rashid >>]

Atherton (a touch arrogant today): England will win easily.

 

[cricfan967]

Pakistan have a good chance but I dont think good enough.

 

[Lethal]

really ???

Yes - Your fifth bowler is covered.

 

[ZAK]

Here we go again...

 

[imshally81]

 

[sehsan]

Razaq is opening the bowling

not a good move i must say when you are playing asif and amir. I think amir and asif should start, amir should bowl 2 overs and then bring razzi.

 

[SirRyanOfSalford]

lol My Trump card idone to put Pommies in their place! Com'on Pakistan, we shall do it.

 

[cricfan967]

is this the knockout round?

Pakistan are to play 3 games in the 2010 super eights.
Those against I think England, New Zealand, South Africa.
They must win 2/3 of those games to qualify for the semi finals.

 

[ZAK]

 

[chui_kadoo]

poor ball by razaq. Someone tell him to wake up

 

[cricketpassion]

four on 1st ball

 

[Lethal]

Crap start.

4

 

[imshally81]

another plan from afridi

 

[mrk]

i give up. razaq starting ? stupid stupid b********************

 

[chui_kadoo]

why is he bowling legside

 

[mrk]

why we have asif and amir ???+

 

[<< Rashid >>]

What a pedestrian delivery that was!

 

[ZAK]

5 runs of the first two balls

 

[Lethal]

Wake up Abdul.

Too leg side

 

[saeed-sohail]

WTH with razzaq opening when asif and aamir are there.

 

[pak4life]

pie thrower opens the bowling )

New strategy from our captaan

 

[cricfan967]

..

 

[MIG]

I give up.

Afridi ....

 

[Maula Jutt]

Our bowlers batted well. Let's see if the batters now return the favor by atleast fielding well for the bowlers.

 

[xbox]

I think coach and captain should be fired. This is just a over-reaction from last game since he was not given to bowl..now he is attacking..this is crazy

 

[chui_kadoo]

almost a wide there

 

[imshally81]

no wide wow

 

[chui_kadoo]

he seems really low on pace

 

[Lethal]

Too gentle so far.

 

[Maula Jutt]

Aamer should have opened.

 

[Sledger]

Bad start from Razzler.

 

[MIG]

ALmost like we want Razzaq out of the way! Craziness - Where is Waqars advice?

 

[chui_kadoo]

im surprised asif didnt open the bowling

 

[Lethal]

If he can bowl 2-3 overs. I think it will be a bonus.

Good comeback.

 

[imshally81]

all ball are out of the off stamp ...

 

[The Godfather]

looks like aamer will play the gul role

 

[Seen Sheen]

Watch out for the in-ducker..ar

 

[imshally81]

dropped the dolly

 

[chui_kadoo]

what an easy drop. THATS A SHOCKER

 

[<< Rashid >>]

ALmost like we want Razzaq out of the way! Craziness - Where is Waqars advice?

What is Waqar's advice I wonder?

 

[Lethal]

I feel for bowlers.

Ajmal.

Boy oh boy.

 

[Sledger]

No movement whatsoever!

 

[cricketpassion]

Dropped

 

[Maula Jutt]

The bowler himself misfielded. :/

 

[chui_kadoo]

why is he fielding there.

 

[Sledger]

Dopped!

 

[mrk]

what i said. feilding hold they key

 

[Oxy]

Oh dear Saeed!

Was trying to celebrate it!

 

[WithLoveFromCanada]

good come back 5 runs in the over.

 

[Gabbar Singh]
