Poor crowd turnout so far. Not surprising considering the back to back games. I got to the stadium early yesterday and there were a good amount of people already there and plenty more outside making their way in. The crowd really started to pour in yesterday after lunch. Hopefully the same happens today.
 
well played shot over short fine leg.
 
An early constriction today. It's like waking up Sade with some coffee and urging him to indulge.
 
and Roa is almost apologetic to the batsman for beating him.

no staring down here.

no attitude.

just silent constriction.
 
What a pleasantly mild homo-sapien.

Too bad I can't say the same for the creature prowling the covers.
 
Gul to bowl and Jayasuriya hits into legside for four!
 
Was it a mistake - sending Lanka in instead of posting a score?
 
Lovely delivery from Gul!!

Beat Jayasuriya comprehensively!!
 
Was bound to happen
Standing way too deep into the crease
 
Thought i heard something...got lucky with that one...let's hope we get sangaz out early
 
Idiot rameez chiming in with his stupid comments....what mystery....straight forward hit vikaat...
 
Bring Akhtar back for a couple of quick ones.
 
6.6 Iftikhar Anjum to Dilshan, no run, short and wide and there to cut, misses it. Maiden over
6.5 Iftikhar Anjum to Dilshan, no run, continues to bowl in that channel on and outside off, defended solidly off the front foot
6.4 Iftikhar Anjum to Dilshan, no run, short of a length on the off stump, pushed off the back foot to cover
6.3 Iftikhar Anjum to Dilshan, no run, sharp bounce again, short outside off and a hint of inward movement there, left alone
6.2 Iftikhar Anjum to Dilshan, no run, fuller on the off stump, pushed confidently back to the bowler off the front foot
6.1 Iftikhar Anjum to Dilshan, no run, the bowlers maintaining a short of a length line here, outside off stump again, but closer to the stump preventing the batsman from cutting, left alone

:rao
 
Rao is like the "good cop" who interrogates you with good manners and whispers, until you just passively submit.

Sangakarra off the mark with a push off the back foot!
 
justin.tv has stopped working so watching it on crictime.com and quality is not as good. Any other good streams that you guys are using?
 
CONSTRICTION!

The pitch looks to be doing something today, a bit juicier than yesterday.
 
"He must not worry about the team, he just needs to go out there and bat for himself" - Ramiz

That is quite possibly the worst advice anybody could give a batsman.
 
i'll love to see pakistan chasing a little higher then 220 odd just to test our openers and batting strenght
 
^that way, we may even make more than 9 runs off 7 powerplay overs.

Just maybe.
 
Good comeback here by these two giving away a paltry 15 off 5 overs with the one wicket. Another wicket now and we're on top.
 
I'm here :afridi
How quick was Akhtar bowling? ( yes, bowling RA:batman: ) and how is Roa's hairstyle looking today?

I'll love to see us win, and win comfortably.
 
I really hope SL put up a big total here. We need to test our depth, and I dont think I can survive if Boar doesnt bat today.
 
Worry not compatriot.
Rao's hair is silkily blowing in the wind like...

Well..there's no description.
 
Pakistan need to pitch the ball up on a good length!
Bowling way too short!
 
Akthar is rolling in with his moobs bouncing and bowling mid 130s and getting creamed. He needs to be canned asap. His fitness and physical appearance is a disgrace to any fast bowler.


Mind you Asad Rauf made a howler when Dilshan was plum lbw to Akthar in the first over.

these sight screen delays and batsmen deliberately twitching around with gloves and stance are certainly not helping the over rate.
