Pakistan v New Zealand | 1st ODI | Dubai | December 8, 2014 | Pakistan Innings

[Mainul]

We are witnessing Beginning of first top class lefty middle order batsman from Pakistan!!! - He needs couple of innings to get hang to international cricket, because of crowded middle he has to wait for 4 years...

This was not an easy wicket, but he has shown what he offers!!

No way.He will get the same treatment if he fails in one or 2 matches like Fawad but unlike Asad

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Afridi is maybe possessed by something.

Maybe Misbah hired some bhoot?

 

[Mr Consistent]

177-6
40 overs

 

[m.shah]

Can we??

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan require another 70 runs with 4 wickets and 60 balls remaining

 

[IAJ]

Pakistan will inshaAllah win this match, but there should be changes in this team for next match.

 

[Madplayer]

Haris needs to win it from here. He is known for such stuff domestically

 

[Mr Consistent]

70 needed from last 10 overs

 

[Bilal7]

Good over from Kills.

They should keep targeting 6 runs off each over.

 

[Sam18696]

Did Afridi just do that?

 

[Justcrazy]

one big over somewhere required

 

[Sam18696]

boom

 

[Mainul]

Formula of getting out Lala.Bowl bouncers and he will give a skyhigh catch and take it.Familiar Afridi dismissal.I am not watching the match on TV.Has NZ bowler done that?

 

[Mr Consistent]

 

[Justcrazy]

63 from 56 balls

 

[Smbhayi]

ear plugs says hi.. lol

 

[Lords]

Afridi showing pakistanis that he can play this way but he choses not to. So not

 

[Madplayer]

Record seventh wicket partnership at this venue this

 

[Mr Consistent]

62 from 54

This is a good game.
We are potentially one wicket fall away from land sliding.

Let's see if these both can take the score to 220 odd?

I follow match on cricinfo but Neesham tries that.. afridi simply ducks under it..

 

[Sam18696]

ear plugs says hi.. lol

Misbah must've given it to him.

 

[Madplayer]

Wow that was a quick bouncer

 

[Caved12]

We do not need to take any risk here. Please continue to play sensibly.

 

[Smbhayi]

Who bowling atm.. Milne or Mills.?

 

[IAJ]

Easy Haris. Milne has just 1 over after this. It will be stupid to give him wicket here.

 

[Cricket_Engineer]

Just need run a ball

 

[FreeBird]

Afridi and Hairs partnership is like Sachin and Dravid or Mahela and Jaywardane together on the crease.

 

[Mainul]

Then it must be Afridi look alike, not the real Lala

 

[Mr Consistent]

 

[MRSN]

top top shot.

 

[Madplayer]

Milne attempts another bouncer and haris bludgeons him down the ground. No fear of his pace. This is what we want from our batsmen

 

[Mr Consistent]

191-6
42 overs

 

[Justcrazy]

191.6

8 overs more

 

[Markhor]

Haris Sohail has got real balls here, showing a lot of mental strength and toughness.

 

[Smbhayi]

I'm going to no.1.. afridi pls stay there..

 

[Mainul]

I follow match on cricinfo but Neesham tries that.. afridi simply ducks under it..

There must be Afridi antidote medicine now in the market which Afridi took before coming into bat

 

[Mainul]

If Pakistan wins today, Younis and Asad will get another lifeline.O no

 

[asyed]

We can win if these two continue to play like they're atm.

 

[Iffitheking]

Pakistan still can lose this, mater of one wicket...

 

[Mr Consistent]

197-6
43 overs

 

[Madplayer]

He is probably the best batsman in Pakistan potential wise.

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

If Afridi had temperament he could be a great nr. 3

 

[haroon91]

If Afridi gets to 50 it would probably his slowest ?

 

[coy0607]

c'mon Afridi- go for some sixes.. need to finish this fast

 

[Gone]

c'mon Afridi- go for some sixes.. need to finish this fast

No surprise afridi plays without brains most of the time. When thats what his fans want!

He is playing perfectly right now... no need to throw it away with brain farts.

 

[Thivagar]

One handed touch shot to 3rd man by Afridi , no one had ever done that

 

[Sam18696]

Really need one big over.

 

[Smbhayi]

c'mon Afridi- go for some sixes.. need to finish this fast

don't jinx pls

 

[Amjid Javed]

48 needed from 39 balls, calm heads needed here and on bog scoring over

 

[Sam18696]

200 up

 

[Mr Consistent]

2oo up for pak

 

[leatherface58]

Just shows how good this pitch is. Save for Taylor and now Afridi and Sohail, all were horrible.

 

[Smbhayi]

Don: "55 off 47 balls, 4 wickets still in
hand, 2 set batsmen in this match should
be very winnable for Pak from here, and
who would have thought they would be in
such a good situation after that start. Most
surprising of all is the maturity shown by
Afridi in rebuilding the pakistani innings,
really makes you wonder why he can't play
like this always. He's so much better as a
batsmen when he's not just looking to
smash it out of the park. "

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan require another 47 runs with 4 wickets and 36 balls remaining


This is getting interesting

 

[asyed]

Cool, Milne has gone for good in this game.

 

[Smbhayi]

200 up and Milne bowled out.. come in Pak. . you can win it now..

 

[Amjid Javed]

Pak 200/6

47 needed from 36

These two both need to stay in till the end here

 

[FreeBird]

Yep, one quick wicket down now and it's over.

 

[m.shah]

199/6

 

[Gone]

Pak's game to loose now.

 

[Mr Consistent]

 

[asyed]

47 runs on 36 balls. Need 1 or 2 big overs.

 

[Smbhayi]

four by afridi

 

[Justcrazy]

Need to take this game to last 2 overs

 

[Mr Consistent]

40 from 30 balls

Seniors are on the way out. He is a proper batman, not a slogger, we have very few of those....


All he need is couple of county season, he will be Gold!! - PCB is not even capable of that

 

[Justcrazy]

40 from 30 balls

Need to get run a ball for next 3 overs , risk free.

 

[Smbhayi]

haris doing a fine job here..

 

[Statsman]

This should be a walk in the park now.

 

[FreeBird]

Need one big over of 20 odd runs. It's a hit or miss for Pakistan - I liked that fact that we at least fought today.

Well done guys.

 

[MRSN]

showing his class now.

 

[Markhor]

Well done kid, well done. Go on Haris, finish the job.

 

[Mr Consistent]

runs

 

[amomin]

This may turn out to be the best Pak win in past 2-3 years. No chance anyone thought we would chase this.

 

[asyed]

So Vettori and Milne have completed their overs. Who's going to bowl the last 5 (Neesham & Mills)?

 

[Justcrazy]

Good start to over , need to get singles now

 

[Smbhayi]

Pak only need to target Neesham. . he's low on confidence atm..
