[razabbas]

Harsha praising our bowling

 

[GreenKnightRises]

LOL .Hafeez

 

[mosh101]

Good toss to win for SL?

 

[Justcrazy]

Playing 6 bowlers means that you go one batsmen short.

 

[mosh101]

SL having the advantage of playing a few games here already

 

[Red Devil]

Dropped

 

[razabbas]

dropped

 

[Justcrazy]

This 6 bowler approach will never change

 

[uberkoen]

Shabba Hafeez. Keep it tight boy! keep it tight!

 

[Justcrazy]

Dropped !!!

 

[mosh101]

Dropped? LBW? what was that?

 

[uberkoen]

This 6 bowler approach will never change

Why should it change?

 

[mosh101]

Just hit the pad ! Nice line from hafeez

 

[uberkoen]

Dropped? LBW? what was that?

Just hit the pad

 

[Justcrazy]

Lanka as usual bat really deep

 

[Saurav]

why pakistan always play 6 specialist bowlers ?

Yeah I've always wondered that.could easily bolster the batting by adding a specialist batsmen instead

 

[akamaka]

Good first over by hafeez

 

[Sam18696]

I don't think there was an edge

 

[uberkoen]

Since 2012 Pakistan hasn't won a game chasing?

Oh boy.

 

[saiyan0312]

2 from the over.

 

[mosh101]

Gul time ! Hopefully he wont injure himself !

 

[uberkoen]

Lol @ dropped... It was just hitting pads..

 

[Sam18696]

Guldozer

 

[akamaka]

gully time

 

[Justcrazy]

Why should it change?

because batting is Pakistan problem , not bowling.

and both can do 10 overs each.

 

[mosh101]

Nice shape for gul

 

[Bullet Drive]

Oh shut up Ramiz

 

[uberkoen]

Pakistan hasn't chased 250 to win a game since October 2012.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Umar Gul bowling 133kph

 

[Justcrazy]

Is any change in approach here with Moin as coach ?

 

[uberkoen]

Oh shut up Ramiz

Chill out bruv.

 

[razabbas]

so many bits n pieces player in SL team

 

[saiyan0312]

How fast is gul back. back to 140 or still at 128.

 

[Sam18696]

[taqi]

key to success score more then 250 pakistan havnt chased 250+ since Oct 2012

 

[Justcrazy]

Lahiru is better in middle order.

 

[mosh101]

No dive from lala and that goes for four

 

[uberkoen]

Oh what a drive. Beauty.

 

[Red Devil]

How fast is gul back. back to 140 or still at 128.

Just bowled 135kph

 

[Robbie]

:4 by thirimanne.
Gul not finding the right line.

 

[saiyan0312]

Just bowled 135kph

Good.

 

[Canistani Hero]

we've only got 4 batsmen in the whole line up and it's worrying. a possible collapse is on the cards

I would be worried on a pitch in England or South Africa but Hafeez batting isn't a concern on subcontinent pitches

 

[Justcrazy]

:4 by thirimanne.
Gul not finding the right line.

he often does not

 

[Robbie]

Pitch is batting paradise.

 

[mosh101]

7 without a wicket after 2

 

[Bullet Drive]

Junaid Khan should open the bowling IMO

 

[Justcrazy]

is dangerous when he finds Rhythm.

 

[akamaka]

Good first over from gul

 

[uberkoen]

5 from the over. C'monnn GULLLLLYYY!!!

 

[Justcrazy]

270 would be a good score here.

 

[mosh101]

Uff top bowling from hafeez

 

[Sam18696]

Almost got him

 

[Bullet Drive]

Anwar Ali dropped after making 40*

 

[Canistani Hero]

Pakistan would do well to keep it tight in the first 10, dont let them.know its a batting paradise

 

[Bullet Drive]

Extremely tight

 

[Red Devil]

Need get Perrera early

 

[uberkoen]

What a bowl. What a bowl boy! Nice one!

 

[Justcrazy]

Deepak Langer: "Not sure if it's the right decision to bat first. I've seen teams chasing big totals under the lights because of dew factor. "


Cricinfo

 

[Robbie]

Hafeez is very dangerous for a left hander bat

 

[Red Devil]

:4 by Perera

 

[Sam18696]

Bad ball

 

[Bullet Drive]

hammered

 

[DanishJamil]

Pitch is highway to batting paradise..

 

[Bullet Drive]

This is a paradise for batting.

 

[saiyan0312]

by perera

 

[Robbie]

:4 by parera

 

[mosh101]

Short ball and punished for four

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan would not mind chasing here

 

[Bullet Drive]

Don't feel bad if PAK go for 300 here. Its one of those pitches

 

[uberkoen]

Anwar Ali dropped after making 40*

I think he was in the team as a bowler and not as a batsman. Its his bowling we should be looking at rather than the odd 40* he scored

 

[Sam18696]

11-0

 

[Justcrazy]

On this pitch you cannot bowl short at any cost

 

[Bullet Drive]

Chasing is an advantage.

We will chase whatever

 

[mosh101]

Akmal giving prof some advice haha

 

[saiyan0312]

batting paradise. Hopefully the Flat tracks experts can do good.

 

[Canistani Hero]

Anwar Ali dropped after making 40*

His prime role isn't batting, its bowling and Bhatti might be more effective on these pitches because he's pacey and skids on which is menacing on these slow, depressing tracks in BD

 

[Robbie]

SL 11/0 after 3 overs.

 

[uberkoen]

4 off the over! C'mon boys! C'mooooooooonnnn
