[amarmak]

sohail is the fastest in this series... but i want to see numbers

 

[kasoo10]

I need to see him bowl. How is his runup and action?

 

[Da Best]

i meen wicket??????????????????

 

[Random Aussie]

Good bounce and line from Khan.

9 dot balls, a bit different from the other 2 game starts.

And Khan looks like a Pakistan fast bowler. My stream has no speed gun and Urdu commentary

 

[Da Best]

getting good swing khan!

 

[Momo]

Beauty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[amarmak]

guess theres no speed gun in this match... shameful and disgraceful

 

[Da Best]

good bowlin this!!

 

[kingusama92]

wow what a display of fast bowling from Sohail Khan... all he needed was a wicket and it would have been the over of the series...

 

[kasoo10]

just 48 more maiden!

 

[Random Aussie]

I need to see him bowl. How is his runup and action?

Looks better than it did against Zimbabwe. Generating more momentum and not using the shoulder for everything.

 

[kingusama92]

guess theres no speed gun in this match... shameful and disgraceful

There are harsher words in my mind ...

 

[Momo]

The future of Pakistan pace attack is safe, Inshaallah. Sohail Khan has got it.

 

[Imy]

guys willow.tv stream is good and cheap too

 

[Poison]

May Allah bless your soul.

^ To whomever is nice enough to give me a link

 

[kasoo10]

Looks better than it did against Zimbabwe. Generating more momentum and not using the shoulder for everything.

Is he skiddish? High-up or side-on? Runup long? Short?

 

[Momo]

Early days of course, but things not looking good for Shoaib Akhtar.

 

[amarmak]

i need a wicket now... too much of beating the bat. nick one for gods sake

 

[Da Best]

Dilshan lucky!!

 

[Poison]

Wow Khan looks quick. 140s.

 

[Momo]

Patience is the key. Just keep beating em and wickets will come Inshaallah.

 

[Poison]

Stupid Jayasuriya. Commentators saying pitch is green.

 

[Momo]

Good start. 2/0 in 3. Keep it tight guys.

 

[Da Best]

i need a wicket now... too much of beating the bat. nick one for gods sake

im with this guy!!

 

[Da Best]

444444444444 by jaya!

 

[Poison]

Where the @#$#@$@#$@!#@ is the speedo !

 

[khanbaba]

just beats the outside edge!

 

[Da Best]

jaya lucky this time !!

 

[Momo]

First four. A lucky one!

 

[Poison]

Shahid Khan Afridi has touched Sohail Khan on the shoulder. His career looks bright.

 

[Poison]

Jayasuriya edges the ball JUST past Younis Khan, single down to third man.

 

[kasoo10]

Just keep it nice and clean. Who needs speed?

 

[offcutter]

No speed gun = lame

 

[Poison]

7/0 after 4

 

[SohailQureshi]

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

 

[amarmak]

that was close... good bowling by sohail.

dilshan facing sohail for the first time.

sohail seems to be naturally good to the left armers... thats a real asset IMO

 

[Da Best]

nice one poison or jamal

 

[khanbaba]

good start from the two opening bowlers

 

[Poison]

nice one poison or jamal

?

 

[kingusama92]

yup Sohail Khan is definitely hitting 145 KPH here.. Gul is in the 140 KPH range easily as well...

 

[Poison]

Dropp catch.

 

[Plasma]

Wow Khan looks quick. 140s.

My stream has no speed gun!

Or were you just guessing?

 

[Obeid]

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

They were HORRIBLE in the first place...never buyin from em again.

 

[khanbaba]

chance for a catch, missed by butt!

 

[amarmak]

thats a droppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp!!!!!

 

[Poison]

Salman Butt drops Dilshan. Ball goes for 4.

 

[Poison]

Gul is a run out king.

 

[Big Daddy]

butt coughed it

 

[Da Best]

?

for that comment you made on afridi and sohail khan the one with the shoulder

 

[kingusama92]

put down by Salman Butt... well it was a tough catch..

 

[Big Daddy]

fatso didnt even touch it

 

[khanbaba]

direct hit this time - great fielding. Batsmen safe though

 

[Poison]

The Australian spell for Gul has done wonders for his overall fitness level.

 

[Poison]

for that comment you made on afridi and sohail khan the one with the shoulder

 

[amarmak]

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

 

[SohailQureshi]

They were HORRIBLE in the first place...never buyin from em again.

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

 

[iZeeshan]

All links have died.

 

[Da Best]

good bwlin from him with the new ball!

 

[Random Aussie]

Is he skiddish? High-up or side-on? Runup long? Short?

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.

 

[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%.

 

[Poison]

14-0 after 5
