Pakistan v India | CT 2009 | Centurion | 26/9/09 | Pak Inns

[hur rizvi]

Pakistan are in TROUBLE

Lot depends on yousuf now

 

[Juggernaut]

12 runs of the powerplay

I have more faith in Pakistan making big runs in the normal overs.

 

[Inswinger]

why did Malik didn't play like that when Younis was there

It's a conspiracy........

he reason is that the fielders were all close to the pitch. Now they have been pushed back.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

That should've been a wide

[GLORY OF '92]

Calm down guys. Just have some faith. We just need to play clever from here. Pitch is in our favour.

 

[PapaBear]

Jeetay Gaaa!!!! Inshaallah
Jeetay Gaaa!!!! InshaallahJeetay Gaaa!!!! InshaallahJeetay Gaaa!!!! Inshaallah

 

[Poison]

Dont know why you guys are worried. We still have the drawcard. The One. The Sahib.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Now we get 1!

 

[Seen Sheen]

Right. Never mind the fact that Younis just hung his bat in front of the ball....

Younus was forced to play those shots because Pathetic Malik couldnt put the bad balls away to the boundary

 

[karachiite]

Really short bouncer by Ishant goes for a wide. Pitch has definitely slowed down.

 

[hur rizvi]

Yousuf needs to show his class here!!!!

 

[slix10]

In other news... WI 131/3.

 

[haroonrasheed320]

Yousuf playing with the Pads he used on debut

 

[Poison]

It's a conspiracy........

he reason is that the fielders were all close to the pitch. Now they have been pushed back.

No really I think its a grouping within the team...Moon wants the captaincy back.

 

[karachiite]

Yousuf also does a Malik and starts leaving juicy balls outside off.

 

[pak4life]

Lots of poor balls being left alone

 

[Momo]

Dont know why you guys are worried. We still have the drawcard. The Sahib.

An important point.

 

[thurkeebaba]

Looking at the pitch, and Pakistan bowling attack , do you guys think that 250 could be a winning score?

 

[Cheguvera]

India has the upper hand right now...it's their match...at this point it looks like anything over 200 would be bonus for pakistan...

 

[the true passionist]

These will be important knocks for both Yousuf and Malik. They must stay on the wicket till the 30 over mark and rotate the strike.

 

[Kamranz]

Pakistan is simply Stupid, They had the 1st game to get into the rythem oppose to India who had low energy due to loss of Yuv Raj Singh and Sawhag.

Now thanks to our low mental strength we're bring the Indian team together again!

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Look 25 overs 100 runs. After 40 we will be 170. Then 80 off last 10 gives us 250 and a good chance.

 

[Legendary_Sage]

That should've been a wide

it wouldn't have made any difference.because our batsman just want to to play test cricket.

 

[Sparhawk]

We're stuck in a rut.. blocking won't get us out in time.

 

[Poison]

Looking at the pitch, and Pakistan bowling attack , do you guys think that 250 could be a winning score?

I reckon bout one fiddy would be enough :aamir

 

[hur rizvi]

Calm down guys. Just have some faith. We just need to play clever from here. Pitch is in our favour.

What do u think india is not used to of playing on such a pitch???

both india and pakistan are used to of same sort of pitches

 

[Cheguvera]

Looking at the pitch, and Pakistan bowling attack , do you guys think that 250 could be a winning score?

Even 290 would not have been a winning total...pitch is not that bad...Indians are accustomed these pitches and they will score comfortably...

 

[karachiite]

Indians really looking to bang it in short.

 

[imshally81]

malik is great choker

 

[Deewana Mastana]

it wouldn't have made any difference.because our batsman just want to to play test cricket.

Its something atleast!

 

[thurkeebaba]

Younus was forced to play those shots because Pathetic Malik couldnt put the bad balls away to the boundary

sounds like an excuse

 

[ajk88]

pakistan's batting is such *****

 

[Deewana Mastana]

4 dot balls

 

[coy0607]

if thats the case than will be happy

wasim said there would be a lot of reverse later on in the game

 

[khilari]

We will be fine guys ... Still plenty of game left... We have Akmal and Afridi.
Is it getting dark or i am the only one whose screen got dark?

 

[hur rizvi]

Shoaib Malik Needs to do something!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[mindless slogging]

Look 25 overs 100 runs. After 40 we will be 170. Then 80 off last 10 gives us 250 and a good chance.

Commentators were talking about 270/280 pitch

 

[Sparhawk]

Now thanks to our low mental strength we're bring the Indian team together again!

Thats how we roll man!! If a team is down in the dumps we play against them and lift their spirits.

 

[Momo]

Remember guys, India are relying on a part time bowler to make up their fifth bowler. We need to target those bowlers to get a move on.

Afridi might violate his privacy and sanctity in a most public way.

 

[Cheguvera]

Indias bowling was considered the weak link...against this bowling Pakistan should have taken them on...

 

[karachiite]

RP bowling to a set plan and Malik letting him execute it.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

RP bowling very well

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Remember guys, India are relying on a part time bowler to make up their fifth bowler. We need to target those bowlers to get a move on.

They make every ordinary bowler look world class so doubt if they'll do that even!

 

[ajk88]

Indias bowling was considered the weak link...against this bowling Pakistan should have taken them on...

pakistan's batting is it's weakest link

 

[Deewana Mastana]

71 for 3 after 17 overs

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

Yousuf needs to play a mature knock from here on in and let our lower order just slog in the last ten overs.

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

amazing bowling by the Indians....unplayable WOW

 

[Inswinger]

Indian bowlers have taken the pace off the ball. Combine that with an older ball and slow pitch and you have to deal with what your seeing now.

 

[the true passionist]

Malik not appearing as confident as he usually is against IND.

 

[Poison]

Oh man all the wrist slitters are congregating. This place will be a very bad place if we (god forbid) lose this game.

[Oxy]

I think 300 might not be enough on this pitch!

 

[Kamranz]

IF India Win this match it'll be GIFT from Pakistan!

Current Pakistani's simply aren't good enough mentally to fight.

 

[cricketpassion]

Last 10 overs 20 runs just 2 fours

 

[PapaBear]

[Shaheerthe2nd]

Sing bowls a maiden.

 

[Oxy]

Some guy called Virat onto bowl - as the 5th bowler

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

IF India Win this match it'll be GIFT from Pakistan!

Current Pakistani's simply aren't good enough mentally to fight.

ditto

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Kohli on. Let's see

 

[karachiite]

Good move by Dhoni. Bringing in the 5th bowler while Pakistan are in the block mode.

 

[Kamranz]

West Indies 141/3 (29.2 ov)

West Indies require another 135 runs with 7 wickets and 20.4 overs remaining
West Indies RR 4.80
Last 5 ovs 17/2 RR 3.40
Required RR 6.53

 

[mindless slogging]

I think 300 might not be enough on this pitch!

I had the same first impressions

That is Dhoni'esque.

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

I think 300 might not be enough on this pitch!

based on how short the boundaries are ....320 330 isn't enough

 

[Zaz]

Pakistan have created this situation by faffing around

Theres no intent to even look for singles, they ve let the indians bowl and and the mid order looks a shambles once again

 

[Legendary_Sage]

well done Malik.what a knock.you are the MAN.

 

[ajk88]

congrats india

let's be serious. they will chase down our pathetic sub 250 score easily.

 

[Poison]

Give them a break !

They're bowling as phaaaaaaaast as possible.

 

[imshally81]

West Indies 141/3 (29.2 ov)

West Indies require another 135 runs with 7 wickets and 20.4 overs remaining
West Indies RR 4.80
Last 5 ovs 17/2 RR 3.40
Required RR 6.53

i hope WI willl win....

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Virat is a bowler we should target.

He's going to be made a world class bowler by the end of innings!

Unless these 2 remember he's a newbie in the field of bowling!

 

[Inswinger]

[karachiite]

Atleast the singles are flowing now.

 

[Sparhawk]

3 runs so far off the part timer's over.. good captaincy from dhoni to bring him on now

 

[haroonrasheed320]

Kohli has one 1st class wicket

 

[Legendary_Sage]

Dhoni made a smart move.A wicket is on the cards.

 

[Usman Chadda]

A 62 mph half tracker from Kohli outside off-stump, guided to third man rather than being smashed

 

[Zaz]

Maliks looked so poor
