[Sparhawk]

[kingusama92]

not out on the 3rd umpire decision... but great effort by Afridi in the field...

 

[MIG]

btw TVN stream is perfect for me now

 

[amarmak]

oh wow... the speed gun magically works after sohails spell is over.

 

[MIG]

44/0 in 12.2 overs

 

[Poison]

Rao not his usual self so far, little bit of width.

 

[kingusama92]

first time they show the bowling speed and it's saying 116.2 KPH )

 

[khanbaba]

Wicket needed here

 

[Poison]

Speeedo Is Working !

 

[kingusama92]

oh wow... the speed gun magically works after sohails spell is over.

yea it only works for angels like the ROA constrictor

 

[Easa]

Hey guys, just in!

How are we bowling? Looks superb from their dismal runrate, but how has it been?

 

[kasoo10]

Anjum is bit expensive. Needs to cleanup a bit.

 

[amarmak]

awesome running...

 

[Da Best]

look at the nickname they gave rao cricinfo '' Ifti ''

 

[Kriketer]

So when we were playing on flat tracks in Karachi we had 4 pacers and 2 spinners, and now when we are on a good pacer friendly wicket we went with 3 pacers and 3 spinners!!

 

[Poison]

Waqar having a quiet go at Afridi I think.

 

[MIG]

48/0 - 12.5 overs

no wicket yet

 

[amarmak]

kamran akmal is lame....................................

 

[On_the_up]

50-0 (13)

 

[IronMan2009]

They are just riding their luck. Dilshan is still not in. They keep mistiming the ball.

 

[Poison]

Sohail Khan has been superb.

 

[checkers.llvllaster]

So when we were playing on flat tracks in Karachi we had 4 pacers and 2 spinners, and now when we are on a good pacer friendly wicket we went with 3 pacers and 3 spinners!!

We are geniuses We want to challenge ourselves to the best of our ability

 

[MIG]

Akmal unable to get to a wild slash

50/0

 

[IAJ]

The luck is on the lankans side at the moment, either the ball is landing in no-mans land or the pakistani butterfinger fielders drop the cathces (tough chances though)

 

[Da Best]

Hey guys, just in!

abousloutly AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Poison]

This is ridiculous. The 3rd catch to fall into no mans land.

 

[Momo]

Chisty comes! Finally.

 

[Poison]

Chisty is here.

 

[IronMan2009]

Akmal is pathetic. but this is beyond his reach. Not a chance for him.

 

[MIG]

Gulla is back

 

[Inswinger]

This is ridiculous. The 3rd catch to fall into no mans land.

Its the Sri Lankans luck.

 

[Da Best]

Gull back

 

[Muyazzim Khan]

They are playing Dizzy Rascal on the tannoy. Wow Lahore has been playing music like Sydney or Lords.

 

[Poison]

lmaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaoooooooooooooooooooo at Chisty ) He's such a monotonous being.

 

[On_the_up]

Gul back

 

[IronMan2009]

Despite the slashes in the last few overs, they assessed the conditions immediately and played slowly in the beginning.

 

[kasoo10]

We need a wicket or we have not done any damage at all. They saw off good bowling.

 

[MIG]

Gul - right on target - Chishti speaking - what a pleasure to hear his voice after SOOOO many years for me - brings back old memories - tears...

 

[On_the_up]

For all the good bowling, Pak still need a couple of wkts

 

[amarmak]

gul 141.6

yippeeee

 

[Easa]

Gul at 141.6kph

I've always maintained that he's a potential 147kph demon, if he sets his mind to it.

 

[Sparhawk]

They are playing Dizzy Rascal on the tannoy. Wow Lahore has been playing music like Sydney or Lords.

They must have some new guy playing music.. they were playing duffy - mercy a few overs ago

 

[On_the_up]

God over by Gul so fr ,only 1 leg bye off it

 

[MIG]

51/0 in 13.4

 

[Poison]

The ball is still moving around alot.

 

[offcutter]

A hint if reverse swing in that 141 kph delivery? (shaun tait style)

 

[Momo]

lmaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaoooooooooooooooooooo at Chisty ) He's such a monotonous being.

That's his charm. Love him for that.

 

[checkers.llvllaster]

Gul still bowling very well!

 

[Inswinger]

Gul at 141.6kph

I've always maintained that he's a potential 147kph demon, if he sets his mind to it.

Good thing he doesnt just go for pace but maintains control over he ball as well.

 

[MIG]

51/0 in 13.5 - Gull is a genius

 

[Poison]

Dilshan is such a terrible player.

 

[On_the_up]

51-0 (14)

 

[Sparhawk]

wth i thought the speed gun was broken? why were we deprived of sohail khan's speeds?

 

[Afzal_K]

any live links?

 

[Easa]

Wickets will come.

Sri Lanka have been ridiculously lucky. Whenever Afridi mistimes or skies the ball, he always finds the damn fielder. Jayasuria and Dilshan are just finding no-man's land.

I have a good feeling about the perennially daft boarse today. Yes, boarse. A boar and a horse.

 

[MIG]

play and miss by Dilshan 51/0 in 14 - drinks now

 

[IronMan2009]

240 will be a defendable target if the conditions remain the same through the day.

 

[MIG]

any live links?

At the risk of jinxing all - tvn links are working fine

 

[Muyazzim Khan]

Speed gun appears now! *** was it when Sohail Khan was bowling?

 

[iafzal]

I am getting the feeling that lankans will have a go at the spinners, especially the new lad

 

[Easa]

Good thing he doesnt just go for pace but maintains control over he ball as well.

He's bowled well today, but he has a lot of work to do... when it comes to bowling with the new-ball. He's usually too short. He can use his newly discovered pace, pitch the ball up, and find swing.

His old-ball bowling, of course, is superb.

 

[kasoo10]

Don't like it. We are loosing it if we do not get a wicket or two now.

 

[Poison]

Wickets will come.

Sri Lanka have been ridiculously lucky. Whenever Afridi mistimes or skies the ball, he always finds the damn fielder. Jayasuria and Dilshan are just finding no-man's land.

I have a good feeling about the perennially daft boarse today. Yes, boarse. A boar and a horse.

Stitches !) BOARSE ) I think DM has gone to bed, because we arent batting.

 

[Poison]

Ajmal is too experienced. Has a good doosra.

 

[MIG]

someting about to happen - or will this be the rate for the match?

 

[Afzal_K]

At the risk of jinxing all - tvn links are working fine

tvn? hey please help

 

[Inswinger]

Rao dispatched for long one!!

 

[checkers.llvllaster]

Rao is not bowling well today..

 

[Da Best]
