Pakistan v SA | World T20 | 1st Semi-final| Trent Bridge| 18/6/09

[Inswinger]

Bad over.

 

[SwEeT CaNdY]

ohhhhh come on keep the boundaries coming

 

[Lethal]

132-4 after 17 overs

 

[FM87]

again a bad over from pakistan pov, any score less than 160+ will be difficult to defend on this pitch.

 

[iZeeshan]

12 off the last two overs.

3 overs left. 132-4

 

[Oxy]

Malik says its not an easy wicket to bat on - ball not coming onto the bat

160 is a good score he says.

 

[iZeeshan]

To be fair, Styen bowled quite beautifully, it would have been hard to do much more.

 

[Lethal]

Single to Younus.

We need some big blows from A.Razzaq

 

[kablooee87]

Gotta get a move on boys, this wicket has runs in it.

 

[aamir]

Come on guys!!

 

[saeed-sohail]

steve davis needs to learn umpiring why did he call it over before the throw arrived.

 

[Lethal]

Steyn and Parnell bowling well

 

[iZeeshan]

South Africa finishing beautifully. Can't blame batsmen at all.

 

[Oxy]

Parnell coming up with the goods - top death bowling

 

[Monsee]

...

 

[Monsee]

Chokaay aur chakaay ka sawaal hai baba...

 

[pak4life]

has the pitch gone dead or is it paks batting

 

[SwEeT CaNdY]

this way we'll never get to 170

 

[Oxy]

I worry about our 'extras' though....

 

[cricketpassion]

common razaq we need six

 

[iZeeshan]

Really, really need boundaries. 160 looking difficult right now.

 

[Lethal]

137-4 after 18 overs.

 

[Oxy]

Need a 'Yuvraj' type finish (with his bat, not butt)

 

[aamir]

We need to finish well here. Come on guys.

 

[swaziboy]

oh dear runs are not comin
we are way of the170 mark

 

[iZeeshan]

Just 17 runs in the last 3 overs. Come on at least get 155!

 

[mnoman15]

All screwed .......... could not finish well

 

[Lethal]

A lot of singles - no boundaries

 

[GQ]

This is an important over!

 

[aamir]

At least try for the twos !!!!!!!!

 

[Oxy]

Yorker length - top quality from Steyn

 

[JustAnotherFan]

has the pitch gone dead or is it paks batting

Only Boom Boom can bat ...

 

[rhussain33]

Boundaries have dried up now...

 

[Oxy]

2 runs - I think they deliberately didnt try to catch it!

 

[iZeeshan]

Try and get 11 from the last 4!

Just two boundaries.

This is where Afridi > Razzaq

 

[Lethal]

2 to Younus.

Some good tight bowling from SA

 

[Rizwan25]

What The Hell Are They Doing Man..we Got 6 Wicket And They Are Taking Singles..dammm

 

[Sparhawk]

This is great death bowling.. fortunately we already have a decent score

 

[saqeeb90]

what is pak doing?

 

[aamir]

What the heck! Younis does not belong in 20-20.

 

[JustAnotherFan]

Pakistan will prob get 150

 

[FM87]

what is the purpose of sending misbah so late?

 

[cricketcrazy]

I donno why they are not even trying to hit out the ball??
where they gonna take these wickets??

 

[Saj]

Not enough boundaries and big hitting here.

About 20 runs short at the moment. 170 was on, but it looks more like 155 now.

 

[Sparhawk]

Only Boom Boom can bat ...

Dont forget Akmal :akmal

 

[Oxy]

What finishing by the SA bowlers - what can you do

 

[Momo]

I will settle for three sixes

 

[Lethal]

144-4 after 19 overs

 

[SwEeT CaNdY]

whenever YK is there...they stop taking boundaries and just take singles

 

[Oxy]

I think we'll finsih on 119

 

[swaziboy]

disappointing
i am very disappointed at youbnis khan not taking a risk to hit aerial

 

[iZeeshan]

Whoever's not watching, please shut up.

Steyn and Parnell are bowling beautifully. It's almost impossible to get it away.

144-4 after 19 overs.

Need at least 10 from the last over.

 

[Inswinger]

20 runs short

 

[Saj]

Another good yorker from Parnell. He's been impressive in this second spell.

 

[moekind]

Pak just lost the game.
Horrible Batting at the end.
All of Afridi & Malik's work gone down the drain.

 

[cricketcrazy]

what is the purpose of sending Razzaq??

 

[aamir]

Yeah whatever Younis, do not kid yourself, you are not a T20 player

 

[Lethal]

Pakistan struggling here towards the end big time

 

[lalaji]

guys chill...give thme credit..they are bowling really well

 

[Sparhawk]

This score is looking weak actually.. anything in the 140's is actually low. Despite afridi's heroics

 

[iZeeshan]

A dot.

Well, 150 then.

 

[Sparhawk]

Younis misses a full toss... awful batting

 

[thurkeebaba]

even a full toss is wasted

 

[Zaad]

razzaq is horribleee

 

[ItsMeK1]

not a single boundary in last 5 overs

 

[pak4life]

not happy with the finish

 

[pak4life]

younis what you doing!!!!

 

[saqeeb90]

pak is loosing the match
this site needs some upgrading ...

 

[Khabri420]

stop trying to be innovative younis...stick with your main bowlers

 

[pakdesi]

younis khaaaaaaaan what u doin

 

[saqeeb90]

poor captaincy by younis
there was no need for fawad..

 

[Saj]

Bowling Fawad for that over may have cost Pakistan - strange decision
