Pakistan v South Africa | 4th ODI | Abu Dhabi | 8/11/2013 | Pakistani Innings

[imranq]

Do you expect Afridi to get 23 ?

True.

Correction: We need a century from Maqsood

 

[Immy Ji]

I really hope Pakistan win, however having faith that our batsmen actually bat sensibility, is like asking Paul Gascoigne to deliver a lecture entitled “The joys of being Teetotal” completely Oliver Twist….

 

[coy0607]

what a great start- 8 off 5 overs ... thats a ODI score in 2013

 

[Justcrazy]

8 / 0 after 5 overs

 

[mithun_minhas]

5 Overs, 8 Runs.

Axellent batting

 

[Haroon786]

Kepler 'I'm not ridiculously biased' Wessels again defending this far from perfect South African bowling.

 

[Imran_m]

No point playing mind games with Pakistani Batsmen

 

[JibranAnsari]

Shahzad gonna throw it away now!

 

[OmaIR1]

Waqas Tahir: "Some one please tell them the target is not 180. that was in the first game."

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

Pressure building

 

[Imran_m]

I reckon it's going to get harder to score with an older ball so they have to make the most of the PP

 

[pak4life]

losing a wicket now after a pathetic start will just sum up the state of our cricket

 

[Nuekboi]

RRR already reaching 6

 

[Amjid Javed]

I think we can bat the 50 overs here and save this match! keep defending guys!

 

[imshally81]

:4

 

[London_Lahori]

Digging a hole.

 

[saeedhk]

Why so scared??????I want to kick our batsmen in the face.

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

 

[Haroon786]

 

[Sledger]

Four.

 

[Red Devil]

 

[Nuekboi]

Finally a boundary. Time to get aggressive

 

[Justcrazy]

These kind of slow starts add to required rate later and wickets are lost in heaps.

 

[Varun]

Finally a boundary.

 

[Kianig89]

1970sque start again but good we haven't loss anyone

 

[London_Lahori]

i think we can bat the 50 overs here and save this match! Keep defending guys!

Finally some runs

 

[Amjid Javed]

Lovely shot for 4 by shehzhad!

 

[imranq]

Mubarakan we scored our first boundary

 

[iRfaN_LA]

classic shot from Shehzad. Don't need to run for that.

 

[SOSami]

Remember, we still have Afridi and Misbah to come. Fire and Ice.

 

[KIC]

You guys need to relax. If you have wickets in hand, scoring will pick up. The new rules help a batsman do crazy things.

 

[Haroon786]

Single now.

 

[Sledger]

Good run.

 

[OmaIR1]

team india must be laughing their ***** off if they saw this innings.... dhawan would smack these bowlers in heart beat

 

[shanali]

You guys need to relax. If you have wickets in hand, scoring will pick up. The new rules help a batsman do crazy things.

Batsman yes, tailender no

 

[saadsahabjee]

hafeez strike rate 23 , shehzad strike rate 40

Cricket hum sharminda hai , yeh dono ab tak zinda hai

 

[Sledger]

Big over this.

 

[Haroon786]

You guys need to relax. If you have wickets in hand, scoring will pick up. The new rules help a batsman do crazy things.

Not Pakistani batsmen.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need some big overs here.

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

15/0

 

[raamu kaka]

Remember, we still have Afridi and Misbah to come. Fire and Ice.

and a beast as well

 

[imshally81]

M Hafeez vs Styn on NOW. ..... :agg

 

[Sledger]

Tsotsobe utterly destroyed in that over.

 

[Kianig89]

7 of the over

 

[Haroon786]

7 off the over, huge.

 

[Justcrazy]

Mubarakan we scored our first boundary

Mubarak

 

[Nuekboi]

Can we please get one really good over to get RR back on track?

 

[OmaIR1]

hafeez might do the sajda after he hits a boundary...

 

[Amjid Javed]

Pak 15/0 after 6 overs

 

[iRfaN_LA]

Hafeez vs Steyn again.

 

[imshally81]

Fielder at catching position for M Hafeez..
Styn is so scared

 

[Sledger]

Good shot, no placement.

 

[imshally81]

direct hit... wow

 

[Heisenberg]

Tsotsobe does what we couldn't do all day - hit the stumps.

 

[Haroon786]

Almost a run out.

 

[Kianig89]

Tsotsobe good fielding

 

[iRfaN_LA]

Can we please get one really good over to get RR back on track?

we will get it soon, even though scoring is slow, they are middling the ball well.

 

[imshally81]

:4

 

[shanali]

What happened to 'I will win the next battle with Steyn'? Steyn is breaking him down slowly, ready for the KO

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

from Hafeez

 

[Saurav]

Hafeez batting like

 

[Heisenberg]

Hafeez hits Steyn for a boundary. The end of the world is near.

 

[Sledger]

Hafeez dominating Steyn tonight.

 

[Nuekboi]

Hafeez breaking the shackles

 

[Kianig89]

Hafeez smacks a :4 his score now -104

 

[Haroon786]

Four.

 

[Justcrazy]

19 / 0

 

[Naheem]

:4

 

[OmaIR1]

hafeez raises his bat to the dressing room to acknowledge that boundary

 

[Kianig89]

nice sound of the bat

 

[Shaheerthe2nd]

19/0

 

[imshally81]

Well Left

 

[Amjid Javed]

As per usual the lack of playing with soft hands, taking singles etc... is apparent

 

[Haroon786]

Four off the over.

 

[SOSami]

And this guy can bowl too! Hafeez truly is blessed...

 

[Sledger]

Another expensive over from SA.

 

[Kianig89]

His highness Mr. hafeez played an over of Steyn

 

[Amjid Javed]

Pak 19/0 after 7 overs

 

[Heisenberg]

To be fair, we are middling the ball.

They save as many runs as we give away.

 

[iRfaN_LA]

I hate Zee Cinema.
