[thurkeebaba]

TVN links seemed to stop!! *** is going on here!

Getting really F*** off the TVN.. No audio/video..

 

[kingusama92]

salman butt misses another catch... if only fawad alam was there

cricinfo:

Umar Gul to Dilshan, FOUR, dropped, a chance gone begging, full outside off stump, Dilshan gets a touch forward and slices it towards point where Salman Butt fails to cup a sharp chance, the ball flicks his fingers on its way to the point boundary

I don't think even Alam would have taken that bullet...

 

[Da Best]

good ball to jaya dott ball

 

[kasoo10]

Long run up, skiddish in that it is not extravagant bounce. Having a think about it, the bowler he reminds me most of is Akhtar. Without the elbow thing and without the low hold on the ball going into delivery stride.
Pretty smooth action now - it was not smooth when I saw him v the Zimboks.

Thanks, exactly what I was looking for. Skiddish like Akhtar, hmmmm.

 

[Da Best]

3 dot balls from sohail

 

[offcutter]

me too, ive even asked for a refund still havent got that!

willow.tv working well for me

 

[amarmak]

Thanks, exactly what I was looking for. Skiddish like Akhtar, hmmmm.

atleast 10kph slower though... hopefully he'll do good with his current pace.


what a try by yunis chha gaya

 

[Eagle Eyes]

Wow what a try by younis khan.. he almost had it.

 

[Big Daddy]

yonussssssssssssssssssssss brilliant attempt. collingwoodisque

 

[kingusama92]

ohh dropped by Younis.. that would have been the catch of the century if he took it...

he almost plucked it out of the sky ala Collingwood style

 

[kingusama92]

we can't blame Younis at all there.. I am amazed he even got his hand on it...

 

[offcutter]

We've had about 2 drops per match this series - that's 2 wicket opportunities we don't take. Australia and South Africa are dominant because they don't let those go. Really need to do something about this terminal problem

Cricinfo should do one of their statistic features on drop catches and how it effects win%.

Back to my point, South Africa and Aus are so good because they create wickets out of nothing with excellent fielding. Catches that wouldn't even be considered chances, they take.

This is excellent bowling, just not backed up by the fielders. Good attempt by Younis though.

 

[amarmak]

yonussssssssssssssssssssss brilliant attempt. collingwoodisque

kaash pakar laita... would have been great

 

[Random Aussie]

atleast 10kph slower though... hopefully he'll do good with his current pace.

Not Akhtar type pace no. But he is the same sort of bowler if that makes sense, the type of bowler than Shoaib is a really fast version of.

But there looks to be enough pace there and the other good thing is he looks like he could bowl all day.

 

[kasoo10]

Sohail seems good. I am waiting for Gaya explosion.

 

[MIG]

18/0 in 6.3 overs

 

[amarmak]

Not Akhtar type pace no. But he is the same sort of bowler if that makes sense, the type of bowler than Shoaib is a really fast version of.

But there looks to be enough pace there and the other good thing is he looks like he could bowl all day.

thats what he's really famous for in domestic games... keeps at it from one end. good observation dude.

 

[MIG]

dilshan is 6 and Jaya is 12

 

[Bouncer]

is there any fix for the volume?

 

[kingusama92]

Wow a terrific bouncer by Gul... almost killed Dilshan lol...

 

[Big Daddy]

so this is how it feels for other teams when salman butt is playing.

 

[checkers.llvllaster]

We see the difference here with the start, when the openers have kept a tight line to ball..

 

[MIG]

19/0 - down the track and missed it totally - just one run

 

[kasoo10]

From the description it seems like a half chance for YK.

 

[Muyazzim Khan]

That effort from YK was brilliant. Sohail Khan doing nicely.

 

[kingusama92]

wow i got my 6000th post... yayyyy

 

[MIG]

20/0 after 7 - good tight bowling by pak opening bowlers but no wicket

 

[Momo]

Tight start by Pak. Apart from that drop, good going. Good squeeze!

 

[MIG]

Sohail Khan continues - Pak doing well after losing toss - cloud cover

2.79/over

20/0

 

[amarmak]

Lets listen to adnan sami for a while now.

kaisay kaisoon ko diya hay...

Aisay waisoon ko diya hay...

mujh ko bhee dilaya...

mujh ko ik wicket diladay...

 

[kingusama92]

Can I make a comment here... that stupid commercial is really ticking me off.. that guy needs to get off of those drugs that are making him high like that ...

 

[Inswinger]

Anyone else having commentary issues?

 

[Muyazzim Khan]

Dilshan is getting frustrated because there is no shobby to shamsh for 4.

 

[Bouncer]

wow i got my 6000th post... yayyyy

and only one POTW WINS 1


You must be afridi's fan.

 

[checkers.llvllaster]

Very disciplined bowling, otherwise hard to keep Dishan to a strike rate of 38 and Jaya with strike rate of 52...

 

[MIG]

20/0 now in 7.2 overs - not able to hit Sohail is jaya

 

[Da Best]

sohail gvin jaya a hard time!!

 

[MIG]

Cork Mian and his accent

 

[MIG]

hit on the pad Jaya - 7.3 and still 20/0

 

[Momo]

'Pakistan needs a wicket, isn't it Dominic?'
:younis

 

[MIG]

One run to Jaya - 21/0 after 7.4

 

[MIG]

Groundsman says that pitch is a 250 wicket not a 300+ - seems like it

 

[Plasma]

Very good bowling!

Dhilshan and Jaya are getting frustrated. Some more pressure and they will crack.

 

[Da Best]

doesnt waqar have a beard!!???!!!

 

[kingusama92]

and only one POTW WINS 1


You must be afridi's fan.

the change to Afridiness was made after my 5000th post so that's not the reason.. I just fall under the radar like RAO...

 

[Poison]

and only one POTW WINS 1


You must be afridi's fan.

Dont diss King. He's one of the best young posters on here.

 

[MIG]

Waqar calls Cork "Mate"

21/0 in 7.5 now - Sohail doing a great job

 

[Momo]

Sphail Khan deliveries hit the bat hard, with a thud. Good prospect. Seems to be hurrying the SL batters.

 

[Da Best]

Groundsman says that pitch is a 250 wicket not a 300+ - seems like it

is it a seaming pitch ?

 

[kasoo10]

Now is the time when Jaya can not hold it anymore. It is make or break time.

 

[MIG]

Quick single to Dilshan

22/0 after 8 overs - no wicket but frustration round the corner for SL openers

Cmon Pka take you catches now.

 

[Bouncer]

the change to Afridiness was made after my 5000th post so that's not the reason.. I just fall under the radar like RAO...

Just kidding king, dont get all on me

 

[akpower]

brilliant stuff by the two pacers, esp Sohail since it is his 1st match back

 

[MIG]

is it a seaming pitch ?

Cork says he would love to bowl here - England like conditions

 

[checkers.llvllaster]

Gul and Sohail both bowling well!

 

[Muyazzim Khan]

Shail Khan is quick enough, the ball is hitting Akmals glove hard and around shoulder/chest high.

 

[kingusama92]

Dont diss King. He's one of the best young posters on here.

now that's a quality poster right there.. I saw we give POTW to this one...

 

[MIG]

Rao on
22/0 in 8.1 overs

 

[amarmak]

la la la la

kaisay kaisoon ko diya hay...

Aisay waisoon ko diya hay...

mujh ko bhee dila day...

mujh ko ik wicket dila day...

ik naheen... do chaar diladay

kushh naheen tu run out hee karaday...

pleez [iltija smiley]

 

[Da Best]

happy with what the groundsman made of the pitch

 

[Big Daddy]

Cork says he would love to bowl here - England like conditions

please tell us what else is cork saying. o please do.

 

[MIG]

down the pitch comes dilshan but to no real effect - single only

23/0 in 8.2

 

[Poison]

time for some ***CONSTRICTION****

 

[Momo]

Pakistan's trump card is on now. The ace himself.

 

[MIG]

cork says it cold

 

[iZeeshan]

Good start by Pakistan, but a wicket would be nice.

 

[Momo]

Starts well.

 

[MIG]

Akmal says Alhamdolillah after holding a ball

 

[Da Best]

good change give sohail the old ball he'll deliver yorkers!

 

[kasoo10]

Seems like loosing toss was blessing in disguise. Conditions seem to favour bowling.

 

[MIG]

23/0 after 8.4 - miss by Jaya against Rao - wow what a performance - what were you guys complaining about?

 

[Da Best]

constriction to start!

 

[checkers.llvllaster]

Excellent stuff, SL are not able to take advantage of powerplays now either!

 

[Momo]

Jayasuria not in touch today. Either a good news for Pakistan or very very bad one.

 

[MIG]

24/0 after 8.5 now

 

[Muyazzim Khan]

is it a seaming pitch ?

Not particularly I would say the over head conditions are playing more of part. Good thing is that there is decent bounce and pace. I reckon when the sun comes out it will be easier to bat.

 

[wez4all]

pitch got some carry, shoaib should have been given chance here
