The french rugby team are rubbish, Please don't compare them to our cricket team.

 

[JellyBro]

so finally got some big wickets under his belt. Good for him

 

[mastermind_quad]

SL ki batti gul hogayi ......

 

[mastermind_quad]

A. Mathews is the next big thing in World Cricket...

 

[Amjid Javed]

what happen to trying to knock a tailender head off with a bouncer or break his toes with a yorker?

Come on Gul!

 

[adnan yasin]

under 200 please

 

[Watsupdoc]

If Gul isn't 100% fit, he shouldn't be playing the next match...

 

[Watsupdoc]

shot by Mathews

 

[adnan yasin]

reverse sweep by mathews

 

[Watsupdoc]

Hafeez ko lao! Hafeez ko lao!

 

[ads101]

Errr this is so annoying by Matthews.

Looks the ideal no.6 really.

 

[mastermind_quad]

183/8 after 68 overs

 

[Watsupdoc]

Sri Lanka will easily get to 250 at this rate...

 

[Watsupdoc]

Bowl a bouncer Gul!

 

[Watsupdoc]

127.2 )

 

[NeVerMind]

Uda Walawwe Mahim Bandaralage Chanaka Asanga Welegedara no mug with the bat (Gotta love sri lankan names!)

 

[hur rizvi]

Give the ball to Cheema or Junaid

 

[violet_may]

Hafeez comes in

 

[Strike!]

Crowd commentary.

 

[qamar84]

a GUY IN THE CROWD SHOUTING " huss payse naye dite camera haivi mari ja rayen es "

)

 

[hur rizvi]

Welegedera is looking decent with the bat

 

[Badsha]

Juni boy!

[hur rizvi]

Annoying stuff this...

 

[hur rizvi]

Why not go with fast bowlers from both ends??

 

[IAJ]

The value of having a no 10 who can hold the bat.

Hope Junaid and Cheema plays well with the bat as well.

 

[hur rizvi]

Great batting by Mathews ...

 

[mastermind_quad]

19 over short @ this moment even after Ajmal's 25 continuous over... ...

 

[dinakar]

Reminds me our second test against England. Pakistan has to make sure no such batting collapse.

 

[imshally81]

ttttttttt

 

[Strike!]

9 down.

 

[hur rizvi]

4th wicket for Junaid

hope he takes a 5-for

 

[M.A.G]

every time i see srilanka in trouble, this mathews just seem to not get out and score runs, and he is an allrounder, what an amazing player they have. its not like razzaq/afridi once in a blue moon, or twice in 10 games, its like 8 in 10 games.

I consider him one of the best allrounders in the game.

 

[mastermind_quad]

Welegedara

 

[insaftak]

another wicket for junaid

 

[qamar84]

translate

saying to the cameramen that the guy didn't even pay his tickets and your making movie oh him

 

[ads101]

ok next guy averages 3 with the bat in first class with an all time high score of 16. And he's a test debutant. If he doesn't get out cheaply I'll be distinctly annoyed lol. These are some truly chris martin stats.

 

[mastermind_quad]

Mathews 50 ...

 

[VTEC]

Well SL is now in a slightly better position compared to what would have been 130 all out max

 

[hur rizvi]

Great batting talent but not sure about his bowling specially in tests...

 

[M.A.G]

well considered allrounder, so oh well.

 

[hur rizvi]

5 wickets for Junaid....

 

[imshally81]

All out

 

[imshally81]

Congratz Junaid

 

[mastermind_quad]

[M.A.G]

[WalkingWiggett]

Skittled! Congratulations !

 

[violet_may]

Junaid gets his 5 wickets


SL are 197 all out

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Gets fifer in second match. You beauty.

 

[attock]

Junaid on fire

 

[insaftak]

again

5fer for

 

[PerfectionPersonified]

thanks Akmal bhai ---impressive 4 catches

 

[Amjid Javed]

Pakistan win toss and put sri lanka in and have them all out for 197!

Misbahs decision justified, despite some dodgy captaincy in 2nd half off the inns!

 

[Amjid Javed]

Pakistans aim should be 400+ in the 1st inns and try and gain a massive lead.

 

[PerfectionPersonified]

it could have have been 150 all out , had misbah used NOT his brain

 

[Amjid Javed]

Pakistan will have to bat for around 35 Minutes - Probably around 7/8 overs

cant afford to lose any wickets here!

 

[hur rizvi]

Bit of in-swing for Welegedera

 

[Looney]

collapse before day 1 ends ?

 

[hur rizvi]

That was a "Muhammad Amir" no ball

 

[Amjid Javed]

20/0 at close off play will do nicely!
