Pakistan v New Zealand | ICC World T20 Super8: Match 5 | Bridgetown | 5/8/10| Pak Inn

[KingKhanWC]

Maiden over by Butler.

Not what was needed but better than another wicket.

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

Really Misbah.

 

[IMMY69]

don;t worry about the maiden..

We have to be smart here...Runs will come...Just keep the wickets!

 

[amar1212]

come on Pakistan ..we don't want you to come back early

lol "cumming"

 

[Bilsher007]

Misbah has just gone into shell or test mode...4 deliveries played without a single run scored !!!.. ALLAH please help Pakistan !

 

[adzzy786]

Fawad would have been perfect to play at this situation but he was dropped.

Dont be daft, I am so glad Fawad is dropped

 

[<< Rashid >>]

The way Misbah sights the ball, I think he needs glasses.

 

[Sledger]

Misbah! )

 

[The Slogger]

The RRR is 7+ now ...

 

[the Great Khan]

Maiden..misbah bradman showing us how it's done!

 

[Seen Sheen]

Misbah,if you dont take Pakistan home,you better not come to Pakistan again for one year..
issed:

 

[khalil1986]

Damn why misbah try to rotate strike atleast, this is where you would need fawad but they decide to drop him

 

[chui_kadoo]

Misbah is the most annoying cricketer I have ever seen

 

[Momo]

Misbah )

 

[Juggernaut]

Nobody should be surprised with what Misbah's doing.

He's doesn't know how to tick over the strike.

Expect a big shot from him.

 

[adzzy786]

Come On Pakistan, Show some support..!!!

 

[Maula Jutt]

I said it before.. we suck at chasing.

 

[chui_kadoo]

I hope Ijaz butt is watching this game

 

[Phuzz]

Misbah is trying to stabilize the innings. By the 15th over he'll start to score some runs.

 

[dhump]

I will not be surpriced if misbah gets out soon, typical over presurised can't touch the ball.

 

[Cover Drive]

Butt was almost gone...

 

[imshally81]

not out

 

[adzzy786]

OMG.. My heart almost popped out

 

[Saj]

Misbah looks horribly out of form and nervous.

8 dot balls in a row...pressure building

 

[PB]

Atleast take singles, stupid misbah

 

[Pakipride19]

Wow we are struggling...FML

 

[taq12345]

Misbah is the most annoying cricketer I have ever seen

100% agree with that awesome statement.
But don't worry guys, we'll win this

 

[Sledger]

Is this the same Ian Butler Imran Nazir MURDERED!?

 

[The Slogger]

lucky for butt

 

[Abdullah22]

I just can't believe it. Legend.

 

[imshally81]

i think .... he was out

 

[chui_kadoo]

butt has a wild swing.It looks ominus now

 

[amar1212]

dang that was close!

 

[The Slogger]

Eat That Butler !

 

[imshally81]

excellent reply by butt

 

[Bilsher007]

134 is starting to look like a titantic target now with this senseless batting. What a shame, 27/3 after 5 overs. We need to stay level must not fall behind reqd run rate.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Doull saying it was hard to tell, no conning then?

Shot Butt.4.

 

[ZAK]

 

[Sledger]

This game looks done. Pakistan needs a miracle innings from someone and you can almost rule out Misbah.

 

[cricketpassion]

 

[Cheguvera]

Wow

Really good delivery to get Akmal Junior.

To be honest you can't really fault any of the batsman too much.

Kamran gets unlucky with an inside edge.

Hafeez gets a good delivery from Bind. Perhaps should have left it. But Bond is so quick that you can't take that amount of time to think.

And Akmal junior gets a lovely delivery from Mills. Good clever bowling from him.

So far well done New Zealand. They've just bowled really well.

Here we go...excuses galore...there is only one explanation for Umar Akmal's dismissal...he is a pathetic excuse of batsman...he sees that Kiwis are going with the short stuff, so he should be expecting it first up...now even if he isn't he should be able duck under it...but how could he do that when he is playing the slog over midwicket to every other ball, regardless of any situation...so you can't really be expecting him to leave a ball...now that he can't leave the ball he had to put his bat to it and given that the ball wasn't in the slot for the midwicket hoick the best he did was to play a nothing shot, edging it to the keeper...

Get over it...Umar Akmal is the biggest hype since Irfan Pathan...

 

[adzzy786]

SHOT... GOOD ANSWeR... BUTT.. Mills arghhh is he allowed to do that.... ?? straight in his face?

 

[Strike!]

please save us.

 

[Sledger]

I don't think it was out.

 

[PB]

Good Salman.
Effin White man

 

[mrk]

lol *** is bowlers problem ??? remeber mccullum snick ?

 

[imshally81]

again misses

 

[Phuzz]

I can't see us getting anywhere near that target at this moment.

 

[ZAK]

Butt needs to keep his cool

 

[Pakipride19]

We need Fawad...he may not be explosive, but at least he could be rotating the strike, Misbah will be putting alot of pressure on Butt

 

[chui_kadoo]

need to put the pressure back on the bowlers

 

[Da Best]

RR above 7 now.

2 more wicket needed for NZ then it's there match to lose.

 

[ahmed16]

From Cricinfo

Gavin Brown: "Pakistan like India is paying the price for the ridiculously batsmen freindly pitches that are produced on the subcontinent. Fast bowling on a surface with bounce and they have no idea"

Couldnt sum it up better myself.

 

[ali110]

you know you are in trouble when you are relying on Salman Butt in T20 (another retard player) to win you a match.

GL to Pakistan and I am outta here. I can't take this slow torture i.e. watching these two clowns play in this situation.

 

[rhussain33]

Dont be daft, I am so glad Fawad is dropped

Matey Fawad here would have rotated the strike and relieved the pressure kept his wicket and not play 6 dot balls like misbah ul tuk

This situation was made for mr Alam

 

[imshally81]

SHOT... GOOD ANSWeR... BUTT.. Mills arghhh is he allowed to do that.... ?? straight in his face?

miler should ban

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Singles!

 

[Sledger]

Pressure getting to Salman.

 

[imshally81]

44

 

[The Slogger]

good 4, we are back with the rate, now just dont lose wickets

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

 

[chui_kadoo]

finally a loose ball.

 

[ZAK]

to

 

[taq12345]

Why can't Misbah take singles?

 

[chui_kadoo]

comon misbah please rotate the strike

 

[adzzy786]

We need Fawad...he may not be explosive, but at least he could be rotating the strike, Misbah will be putting alot of pressure on Butt

Please. Stop with the fawad thing

 

[KingKhanWC]

Four a bit risky but target is now less than 100.

We need a partnership, games still even.

 

[IMMY69]

Please guys, just relax and get be behind Misbah and the boys...

 

[Fawad_Bhai]

from butt

 

[amar1212]

salman ur the last hope....well, after afridi.

 

[Sparhawk]

Salman takes over the scoring while misbah is napping

 

[imshally81]

vettori in action

 

[<< Rashid >>]

Pakistan just need to get to the 10th over without losing a wicket, with 60 odd on the board.

 

[ZAK]

Vettori to bowl now

 

[chui_kadoo]

dan the man is on. This is gona be an important passage of play

 

[Cheguvera]

Told you guyss.. Our batsmen have a habit of making a meal out of small totals.. Can't handle bounce AT ALL

Can't handle bounce...that means no bowler ever bonces in Pakistan and poor pakistani batsmen have never seen this type of ball....this is as ludicrous as saying Pakistani batsmen can't handle half volleys...

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

Misbah takes a single!!!!

 

[KingKhanWC]

Misbah is a good player of spin. He really needs to keep out Vetorri.

 

[Maula Jutt]

need 98 from 83

 

[Sledger]

As long as Misbah is there....






...... NZ are still favourites.
