Pakistan v Sri Lanka | 5th ODI | Abu Dhabi | 23/11/11 | Pakistan Innings

[Maher96]

Players are going into a shell here start scoring.

 

[Sledger]

lbw appeal - not out.

 

[Badsha]

LBW shout. Proffeser needs to start playing his natural game. Last few games he's been over defensive.

 

[Maher96]

This is what happens when you stop scoring.

Rotate strike!!!

 

[iRfaN_LA]

"SL cricket is in dire straits. I still don't think they have found a pace bowling unit that replaced the work Vaas used to do on his own. With Murali also out of the frame, their weak bowling attack has been exposed. Let's see how they fare defending this small total against a weak-medium batting line up," says Curious George.

from cricinfo

Seems like everyone is blaming SL cricket, instead of praising Pakistan performance. Losers.

 

[Maher96]

Come on hafeeeez.

 

[Asif321]

almost trapped

 

[Maher96]

Get the flow going.

 

[Badsha]

Well fielded. But good intent from Hafeez.

 

[Maher96]

2nd maiden.

 

[attock]

Another maiden

 

[Maher96]

needa t send msg thru lol.

 

[sam]

Another maiden

 

[Badsha]

Kuch meetha ho jaye

 

[Asif321]

14

 

[Justcrazy]

"Mohammad Hafeez is the only player this year (2011) with 1000+ runs and 25+ Wickets. The best all-rounder at the moment?"

 

[Radiance Of Australis]

Why is Shafiq acting like a tail ender? :/ But then again, saari bounce, swing , inswing, outswing toh Pakistan ki batting ki baari mai honay lagti hai!

 

[qamar84]

2 maiden in a row ,noproblem guys it just 220 runs we need

 

[Badsha]

Shafiq needs to learn how to rotate the strike.

 

[Justcrazy]

Asad averages 33.42 so far.

 

[Maher96]

15th dot ball in a row.

 

[Justcrazy]

pakistan should not be bobbed down, need to find at least one boundary here.

 

[Maher96]

16.

 

[Maher96]

18.

 

[Badsha]

"He's got all the ingredients to become one of the top openers of the world" Waqar on Hafeez

 

[SAF]

yawnfest.

 

[Maher96]

Extreme misbah type innings.

 

[Justcrazy]

First 10 overs Pakistan should look to be 40 /0

 

[Sledger]

He's not 5'3. )

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan should send up Kurki as a pinch hitter today.

 

[Badsha]

Shafiq showing here he's good enough for the test team.

 

[Radiance Of Australis]

Shafiq is of the same height as me. LOL. 5'4

 

[Maher96]

This has become a test game.

 

[nads_rocks]

3 maidens on da trot!

Misbah really must be clapping his hands right now...

 

[Ahson8]

3 maidens in a row now

 

[sam]

Whatever happened to the 1 over shoulder rule?

3rd in the over now.

 

[Justcrazy]

3rd maiden

 

[Asif321]

5ft. 3 inch Shafiq ....

 

[Badsha]

Pakistan should send up Kurki as a pinch hitter today.

Which reminds me, the trend of pinch hitters being sent has really decreased hasn't it ?

 

[Sledger]

Still 14.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan should not do this , the RR should be kept under 4.5 at all stages. Something will give up.

 

[Maher96]

Tauba tauba make run at least.

 

[pakcricketfan]

No runs scored for 23 balls.

 

[Asif321]

Shafiq is of the same height as me. LOL. 5'4

u chotuuuuu

 

[Badsha]

Proffeser getting a run at least from a beautiful shot.

 

[Sledger]

Single off a mis-field. Finally the 15 is up!

 

[sam]

Nothing scored in the last 22 balls.

 

[imshally81]

1 run

 

[Justcrazy]

They could have opened with Afridi today..... It would have been interesting.

 

[nads_rocks]

Looks like until the rr does not become above 6 we will not win comfortably ever!

Gosh if this is what its like sending Shafiq to open then I'd rather have farhat in the team to be honest!

 

[Badsha]

Shafiq either hits shots or just stops. Can't rotate. Doesn't have the "hitting the gaps" technique.

 

[thecricket]

 

[sam]

A run. Finally.

 

[Sledger]

Good shot by Asad.

 

[Maher96]

Good shoot.

 

[Radiance Of Australis]

u chotuuuuu

For a guy yes..but not for a girl, yar.

 

[Badsha]

Why can't we have Ahmed Shehzad in the team

 

[Justcrazy]

What the heel is this, they are just bobbed down......... give me break. This is average bowling attack.

 

[nads_rocks]

I predict a dot.

 

[Asif321]

Shotttt

 

[Justcrazy]

Shafiq, is good for test only.

 

[nads_rocks]

3 runs in the over.

 

[Pak_Jazba]

Did Arnold just say "Still he won't get a four, because OUR man Dilhara Fernando is therE?"

 

[Badsha]

For a guy yes..but not for a girl, yar.

So you're female?

 

[imshally81]

Parasana in

 

[sam]

Arnold [?]: Shafiq won't get a four because OUR man Dilhara Fernando gets a hand to it.

 

[nads_rocks]

haha younis khan and afridi...

 

[Justcrazy]

If this is the way they play Lanka, how will they take singles against England ??????

 

[Asif321]

For a guy yes..but not for a girl, yar.

u r gurl?

 

[Radiance Of Australis]

Lala shaam ki chaaye pii rahay hain.

Test game, seriously. :/

 

[Badsha]

They are being over cautious.

 

[Justcrazy]

Required RR 4.56

 

[sam]

Did Arnold just say "Still he won't get a four, because OUR man Dilhara Fernando is therE?"

Yup, he did. Just posted.

LOL @ OUR man.

 

[Radiance Of Australis]

So you're female?

u r gurl?

I thought the avatar was fairly obvious. And yes.

 

[Sledger]

3 more. Good placement.

 

[nads_rocks]

r we gonna make a superstar out of prasanna?

 

[sam]

haha younis khan and afridi...

What happened?

 

[pakcricketfan]

Chhota needs to get some runs here. Just don't go into a shell

 

[Badsha]

Where is that girl in the pink dress ?

 

[nads_rocks]

If this is the way they play Lanka, how will they take singles against England ??????

We gonna get murdered against England!
