Pakistan v India | Asia Cup: Match 4 | Dambulla | 19/06/2010 | Pak Innings

[bantu]

Ek "daamad" gaya aur dusra aagaya...........

 

[cric_fan82]

Malik's a good choice, but I would have gambled and sent in Umar Akmal.

everyone would love to gamble, if there are no consequences involved

 

[sagar]

Where is bhaabi \I wonder.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Umar Amin, beautifully pushed around by morons :younis

Two off-spinners bowling. Umar Amin is a left hander.

Do the maths yourself.

 

[Da Best]

Pathetic batting on flat track against ordinary bowlers.

It could have been much worse.

 

[azk]

giving too much respect to sehwag

 

[Momo]

On a different note, Shewag is peremnnially bald despite all those transplants.

 

[ZAK]

1 to Malik

 

[ZAK]

Single to Butt

 

[Afridi_Fan]

 

[Momo]

Shameem F. Buckley is in the commentary box.

 

[saeed-sohail]

Iscore plz.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

78/1 in 18.

 

[AZ]

Umar Amin, beautifully pushed around by morons :younis

No, it would be moronic to send in another leftie against 2 offspinners...common sense.

 

[ZAK]

78/1 after 18 overs

 

[Sultanofswing]

so lets see what Mr Saniz Mirza has to offer here

 

[fawad_wellwisher]

Farhat is no good. He was rubbish three years ago. He is rubbish today. He will be rubbish next year too.

He can be dropped forever now.

Pearls of wisdom. PCB please take note.

 

[sagar]

Malik on fire. Already a four. I think Sania is probably in the stands. Trying to impress the new bride.

 

[Seen Sheen]

and Malik has started with his favourite shot of previous inns against Indians..a late cut ..

 

[ozymandias]

I think India used its.

Cricinfo says Batting PowerPlay was taken at the start of the 11th over.

 

[ahmed16]

What a poor poor decision to send Malik at no.3. A guy who pisses in his pants against all other teams should have been sent at no8 against india just to tell him that you wont be given a free chance to be comfortable and book a place in the side for another 1 year on the basis of this easy innings.

I thought it was a good deplayer of decision, better player of spin than most, plus Umar Amin is left handed, there really is no point in having two left handers against off spinners.

 

[SirRyanOfSalford]

Two off-spinners bowling. Umar Amin is a left hander.

Do the maths yourself.

I did and it told me no left hander stops playing just coz an off spinner is bowling.

 

[adzzy786]

how come maliks come up the order

 

[ZAK]

Single to Malik

 

[imshally81]

need some fireworkz here

 

[AZ]

everyone would love to gamble, if there are no consequences involved

Ya don't say...

 

[Seen Sheen]

butt taking singles..

 

[sagar]

Is it me or have they started scoring a little quicker after Farhat's dismissal?

 

[Momo]

Cricinfo says Batting PowerPlay was taken at the start of the 11th over.

Taken by whom?

 

[ZAK]

82/1 after 19 overs

 

[Sultanofswing]

how come maliks come up the order

its sania power

 

[fawad_wellwisher]

Bhajji nay phansa liya hai! Kuch karo bhai.

 

[Blistering Barnacle]

This is the point where ODIs suffer in terms of entertainment....knocking the ball around for singles when the team is 82/1 in the 20th over.

 

[Da Best]

Bhajji going at 2 an over...

 

[Sultanofswing]

bowling power play was taken in 11th over

 

[ZAK]

1 to Malik

 

[ozymandias]

I think India used its.

Sorry, another cricinfo error, it was the bowling powerplay.

 

[SirRyanOfSalford]

how come maliks come up the order

Coz floodlights aren't on and his puppet wanted him to go get some runs.

 

[ZAK]

Single to

 

[sagar]

Man, I am liking Malik for a change. Butt has had a positive effect after Malik came in.

 

[AZ]

Malik khul ke khel, time zaaya naheen karna!

 

[Seen Sheen]

Just keep going guys,take 5 singles in every over,no need to worry about run rate..Just keep wkts in hand..

 

[KingKhanWC]

Salaam All

Good start today.

Salman Butt for 100 today?

Algeria wore light green last night and also outplayed the opposition.

 

[CricketBuff]

Where is bhaabi \I wonder.

She is in England preparing for Wimbledon!!

 

[Momo]

Pakistan still ahead of India at home, in India, in neutral places despite having openers like Farhat.

 

[Sultanofswing]

Bhajji nay phansa liya hai! Kuch karo bhai.

i am more worried abt sehwag n Jadeja, hope they give away some runs.

 

[talha3]

Farhat is no good. He was rubbish three years ago. He is rubbish today. He will be rubbish next year too.

He can be dropped forever now.

give him a break. was a good opening partnership and farhats first odi for almost 4 years

 

[sagar]

Lucky Butt with FOUR

 

[Strike!]

50 for salman. Bravo.

 

[ali2220]

Man, I am liking Malik for a change. Butt has had a positive effect after Malik came in.

After Farhat, even had Ajmal walked in it would have been a positive effect.

 

[adzzy786]

Well played salman.. i knew you wouldnt let us down..

 

[ZAK]

gets his fifty with a streaky

Well played Butt!!!!!

 

[sagar]

Well played 50 though.

 

[imshally81]

50 for butt
good batting

 

[Atif]

50 for Butt and with that his Average for ODI has gone up to 37

 

[ZAK]

2 to Malik

 

[Seen Sheen]

Malik khul ke khel, time zaaya naheen karna!

Dont act like a 5 year old..Let him build his inns first..Upping the rate wont be a problem later on..,:umarakmal

 

[fawad_wellwisher]

This is the point where ODIs suffer in terms of entertainment....knocking the ball around for singles when the team is 82/1 in the 20th over.

I would disagree. Rebuiding an innings during the middle overs requires a lot of skill

 

[Momo]

Shameem F Buckley is a moron.

 

[Da Best]

SB always does it against India, any other team, he'll get out for under 20.

 

[ZAK]

2 more to Malik.

 

[Rana]

Come on Butt, get your 6th hundred against this lot!

 

[imshally81]

4444444444444

 

[sagar]

Malik is actually playing quite well here. Really nice shot for FOUR.

 

[AZ]

Superb late cut by Moon!

 

[ZAK]

to

 

[dhump]

Inshallah we will some good batting from Pakistan Malik doing his normal against susrali.

 

[Strike!]

Lots of Pakistani's in the crowd today?

 

[Momo]

Great cut shot by Shoaib. In the last match against India, he scored about 7o runs in that region!

 

[Seen Sheen]

and cuts bhajji for ..Shades of CT 09'..

 

[sagar]

Malik will probably have sleep on the sofa today. Bhabi won't allow him anywhere near her.

 

[ZAK]

100 up!

 

[Blistering Barnacle]

Malik showing why he's good at 3 - at least on these types of pitches. He doesn't waste any time.

 

[hur rizvi]

Pakistan still ahead of India at home, in India, in neutral places despite having openers like Farhat.

And they have got worst record at home


Played 26 lost 17 won 9

 

[imshally81]

12 runz in last over

 

[ZAK]

3 to SB

They've started to tonker bhajji now.

 

[KingKhanWC]

12 off it. Bhajji usually bottles it v Pak.

 

[Momo]

give him a break. was a good opening partnership and farhats first odi for almost 4 years

Sorry but 25 of 45 on a flat track with pineapple throwers on is NOT acceptable.

 

[Blistering Barnacle]

I would disagree. Rebuiding an innings during the middle overs requires a lot of skill

Your choice of the term "re-building" is really weird given that Pak is in a very strong position.

 

[Khabri420]

India's fastest bowler in to the attack. Jaddu
