I know he is not a batsman but question was why the other recognized batsman couldn't performed like him(GUL) this far!!
Totally agree i mean when you lose 3 wickets quickly start thinking what you doing wrong atleast someone is using there brain in pakistan team :gul
 
Gul's new nickname should be Bradman.

Pak might as well take the batting power play now, no point in delaying it.


I'd rather see them try getting to a 100 and then using that powerplay. No point taking unnecessary risks right now. Let's just get to a decent total to prevent any further embarassment and then unleash
 
I wake up at 7:40 in anticipation of a cracking match which Pakistan will win but it turned out to be like this!!

Why did I even bother to wake up!!
No fight at all by any of the batsmen!
The only one batsmen who showing hard work is GUL!

Absolutely dissapointing and shocking performance from Pakistan!
It has ruined my Weekend! :pissed:

Just came back. Seems like we are in a spot of bother at the moment. Don't worry guys, it's temporary.

What happened though? A two line summary of the Pak innings please.
 
Waqar is babbling about "it is always difficult when the team scores 300 plus". With 20 overs power play these days, that 5 overs batting powerplay 300 is not at all difficult. he is kinda discreditng Srilankan bowling performance as if they picked wickets only because SL scored 300 plus runs.
 
Umar Good batting like the second coming of David Gower.

Such elegance.
 
obama is the new president of pakistan, so he cant be the captain of pakistan team.

I don't believe that there is a constitutional bar on the President becoming captain of the cricket team.
 
it might be over for afridi... i wish he could stay but its time to move on pretty sure pak has more big hitters and something really needs to be done about kamran! he needs to improve or be replaced

parliment is supreme
 
Thanks On_the_up and Hash.

Your signatures are also part of your summary, I will assume.

Let's look at the positive side though. Saeed Anwar's record must surely be in danger today?
 
Khurram Manzoor 3
Younis Khan 4
Salman Butt 0
Kamran Akmal 9
Shoaib Malik not out 9 :malik
Misbah-ul-Haq 0
Shahid Afridi 0
Umar Gul not out 25 :gul

What a embarrassment lets see what our 2 wounded soldiers do

I can give you a one word summary....

diarrhoea
Must have been pretty acute because everybody was looking fine when I left some hours ago.
 
Momo,

Team collapsed - Chasing 310, Malik sent up Manzoor and Younis to open - failure. Butt came next - failure. Akmal next - failure. Misbah next - failure. Afridi next - unlucky but failed. Gul and Malik recovering well though now :)

Pakistan should aim for atleast 100 then get all out so it doesn't look like a Bangladeshi type performance (no offence.) Then people can actually say, oh it might just have been a collapse


anyways, Malik hits a FOUR
60/6
 
Does anyone have a link by the way? I closed it in disgust when we lost our 5th wicket but I don't want to miss Gul's maiden one day century so I'd appreciate if someone posted me one.

How was Afridi unlucky?

Salman Butt couldn't open the batting with Manzoor coz of screw up in the field. YK opened up and got out in the 2nd over and the downslide began. The SL bowlers used the conditions and the pitch to perfection and rattled the Pakistani batting lineup...some fire crackers are going on now frm GUL and Malik

side note..Afridi s*** hi pants again while Kami, YK ,Manzoor and Misbah all were scared of face Mendis-Murli combo and gave their wicket away.

Good summary nat. Thank you. And good to see you have your chin up. Winning and losing is secondary. The main thing is having fun and be resolute while doing it.

Cheers!

Because he didnt have the balls to do so himself!

Dont blame him, he learnt that from :inzi



YK opened for South Australia quite successfully.
 
Gul gone.

He didn't get his 100

Thanks for the link Muddy

Pak need to take batting power play (Malik yaar please, thorhy se to akal karo)
 
Senior partner :gul goes and then junior partner :malik also departs.
