Pakistan v Sri Lanka | 3rd ODI | Lahore | 24/1/09 - SL Inns

[Poison]

47.5 and 288/5

300 inches closer

In a long chase, ever since the loss of Inzi, we've looked slightly misguided.

 

[MIG]

Sohails action ( wrist delivery) is very much Like Akhtars

 

[pakistanbest]

very impressed by sohail's use of the bouncer very good

 

[tauseefm]

Now i am more mad on Fcuking malik. who is our think tank? a 6 years old kid can count..

 

[Afridi_Fan]

these 2 fours ruined an excellent over

 

[Waseem]

This Dilshan is ONE lucky B*****d

 

[MIG]

Forget everything else, how good of a innings had Dilshan played today?

Hear hear.

294/5 in 48.3

 

[Poison]

Forget everything else, how good of a innings had Dilshan played today?

Not that great in my opinion. A few chances, with the ball landing in no mans land. He hasnt looked completely at ease.

 

[MIG]

no swearing pls

 

[MIG]

296/5 in 48.4

 

[Boi]

Good variation from S Khan!

 

[checkers.llvllaster]

Sohail bowling well at the death overs too since SL are trying to hit hard but he is not giving many boundaries....sad his numbers don't reflect how well he bowled today...

 

[MIG]

297/5 in 48.5

 

[Afridi_Fan]

O yara merey gal ye hai key lets enjoy, because SL will win it unless we have some batting heros

 

[tauseefm]

no swearing pls

sorry, i didn't want to but couldn't control on myself

 

[MIG]

298-5 in 49

 

[HuZi]

gud bowlin sohail

 

[Boi]

298-5 after 49 overs!

They surely going to get 300!

Last over coming up!

 

[Afridi_Fan]

The best bowler of the series wont get his full quota of 10 overs, isnt that a shocker?

 

[Kray_jackson7]

im surprised sri lanka never really accelerated

 

[MIG]

Abdul Qadir and Miandad will all the wisdom in their heads cannot guide Malik - why is that?

 

[MIG]

302/5 in 49.2

Mubarak ho

 

[On_the_up]

After Dilshan's inns and the balls landing in no man's land, what's the betting that the first ball that the first ball a Pak batsman hits in the air is caught

 

[pakistanbest]

afridi should open, take a risk for once mail saab

300 comes up

 

[HuZi]

313 to win for pakistan belive me

 

[MIG]

Average 1st innings score in Lahore is 272 so even a greater feat by SL

 

[Bublu Bhuyan]

300 up for SL.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

300 up for SL

 

[tauseefm]

The best bowler of the series wont get his full quota of 10 overs, isnt that a shocker?

man i am going crazy thinking about it

 

[Inswinger]

Not that great in my opinion. A few chances, with the ball landing in no mans land. He hasnt looked completely at ease.

Atleast he made the most of his "chances"

 

[MIG]

They will never upset the Khurram/Butt combo

 

[Bublu Bhuyan]

afridi should open, take a risk for once mail saab

300 comes up

That's exactly what I was thinking.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

300 up.

 

[Poison]

Pakistan will chase this.

 

[MIG]

Challo Naharoof hit on the head

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Score of over 300 only chased by Aussies in 1998 in Lahore

 

[checkers.llvllaster]

Commentators saying "Pakistan should be thinking that they should be out of the game." According to them this has only been chased once by the Aussies in 1998.

 

[MIG]

even Maharoof

 

[MIG]

305/5 49.5

 

[AZ]

seriously pathetic captaincy by Shoaib Malik...Umar Gul not even completing his full overs

 

[On_the_up]

Malik DOES NOT HAVE A CLUE ABOUT CAPTAINCY, END OF STORY, How can you allow your best bowler to not complete his quota when the opposition gets over 300!
and thats his most obvious error today.

 

[pakistanbest]

scoring 300+ against Medis and Murali, if Pakistan pulls that off, we are one of the best in the world

malik is such a crap captain, though he was improving. I HAVE GIVEN UP ON HIM BUT NOT ON PAKISTAN CROCKET

 

[MIG]

Afridi trying to stop with a foot - 4 !!

309 in 50

310 is the target

 

[Kray_jackson7]

Pakistan will chase this.

inshallah. we have a secret weopan. the power and abilities of

 

[Afridi_Fan]

310 towin.

 

[Bublu Bhuyan]

Pakistan needs 310 to win.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

SL 309 for 5 off 50 overs

 

[Boi]

End of the innings

50 overs- Sri Lanka 309-5

A fantastic total for Sri Lanka!
Pakistan pulled it back a little at the end but a total of 300+ to chase down is very hard!!

I think Afridi has to open as Pakistan need to make full use of the Powerplays.

It is going to be tough for Pakistan to chase this down!

 

[Poison]

 

[the true passionist]

inshallah. we have a secret weopan. the power and abilities of

who didn't even bother to stop a 4.

 

[pakistanbest]

310 to win...............AFRIDI TO OPEN.......BUTT AND MANZOOR WONT BE ABLE TO KEEP UPTO THE RATE

 

[On_the_up]

fifth time in the last 6th matches in Lahore that 300 runs have been scored - courtesy of Waqar

Chisty chirps in - scoring them batting second is the problem
