Pakistan v Sri Lanka | CT Warm-up | Benoni | 18/9/09 | Pak Innings

[Momo]

Shahid bhai shuts me up big time

You are not the first one. Nor the last. (iA)

 

[Juggernaut]

I can never understand the logic of taking the power plays at the end when you have to hit out anyway best time to take them between the 30-40 overs when the scoring slows down

Same here

Might come to bite us in the **** if we're not careful.

 

[mindless slogging]

Only 8 off Kula's first PPlay over.

 

[Cover Drive]

On the other hand Saffers have gone mad!!

 

[iHammad]

Murali bowling

 

[The Godfather]

272/5 46 vers gone easily should get over 300+

 

[IMMY69]

I can never understand the logic of taking the power plays at the end when you have to hit out anyway best time to take them between the 30-40 overs when the scoring slows down

i see so its so simple then...every team should just take powerplay between 30 to 40 overs regardless of the match situation?

england against aussies is a very poor example...england were taking powerplays when their team was 5, 6 and even 7 down and prior to that their run rate was about 4...

plus logic should dictate that the best time for taking a powerplay should be towards the end of the innings if the team already has a good run rate and with not many wickets down and with big hitters still to come...think about it

 

[Momo]

Guys i got the back of my Tv open now, Which wire is it again?

The model of my TV is Sony. Please advise correctly.

Reminds me of the 'bomb' scene in 70s movies.

 

[Wassixpakistani]

[iHammad]

Will we have to make another thread for the SL innings?

[Juggernaut]

On the other hand Saffers have gone mad!!

[Kray_jackson7]

[iHammad]

I thin im missing some pages.

pak innings will end at 15 pages
just a prediction

 

[Wassixpakistani]

Allah ki taraf se barqat

 

[Inswinger]

Fawad Alam at this stage? Does not make much sense.

 

[iHammad]

Faadi in to bat
Afridi on strike now!

 

[amarmak]

bechara fawad....

this is not fair

 

[Mohsin]

Fawad off the mark

lala 4 more

 

[Mian Hassan]

Why is Fawad alam batting??????? no use now.....

 

[mindless slogging]

Now it's Fawad. I bet this really suits his batting style?!

 

[iHammad]

46.5
Muralitharan to Shahid Afridi, FOUR, makes room to the leg, goes on the big drive, thick edge races away to thrid man

 

[Wassixpakistani]

Afridi's the man of the hour

 

[Juggernaut]

why is aamer batting?

[Wassixpakistani]

And it's another one , this type intentional

 

[iHammad]

11 runs from that Murali over!!!
Wohoo!

 

[Raz]

Fawad Alam at this stage? Does not make much sense.

Well it is a warm up game, so it's best the major batsmen in the team get some time out in the middle. Our score is already good enough.

 

[The Godfather]

11 of that murali over

 

[adarsh_bang]

afridi is fast beoming a good player of quality soin bowling

 

[Kean0]

I think S.A are going for a 400 score. LOL

Lets see what Boom Boom can do here.

 

[iHammad]

Pakistan RR 6.02
Last 5 ovs 54/2 RR 10.80

over 300

 

[Juggernaut]

Well it is a warm up game, so it's best the major batsmen in the team get some time out in the middle. Our score is already good enough.

Nope.

We need 300 plus just to be on the safe side.

 

[Cover Drive]

they're playing a third rate windies side that too in their own back yard.

What did you expect?

Yeah but atleast they West Indians should show some sort of fight how can you let them score 350 odd with four overs spare? Even UAE a non test playing nation (Forget BD and others) would let them score this much

 

[mindless slogging]

Fawad rotating the strike. Well played lad, even tho he is being wasted in this situation

 

[iHammad]

47.1
Kulasekara to Fawad Alam, 2 runs, worked between square and long leg for two

Fawad! dunya karaigi tujhay yaad! Chakka maar day maray yaar!!

 

[Inswinger]

End the innings already!
Have to get ready for Juma-tul-Wida.

 

[Wassixpakistani]

Argh...........2 dot balls

 

[Momo]

A couple of more matches against Afridi and Murali will need a pyschoanalyst.

 

[Rizie]

[iHammad]

47.5
Kulasekara to Shahid Afridi, FOUR, lofted wide of long on

Just remember it will be Sri Lanka's batting vs our bowling and I know who I favour. :aamir :naved

[iHammad]

Malinga to bowl

 

[Kean0]

420

I want a link bro, not the S.A score prediction.

 

[Inswinger]

Best and Sammy are decent bowlers but are being treated like club bowlers.

 

[Raz]

Afridi on strike facing Malinga

 

[iHammad]

48.1
Malinga to Fawad Alam, 1 bye, outside off, left, fumble from Sangakkara lets them have another bye
)

 

[Seen Sheen]

Somehow,I dont understand the logic of taking bat.Powerplay in the last 5 ovs of the innings..You are supposed to hit it around in the last 8-10 ovs..Before the introduction of Bat.Powerplay,we used to score around 90 runs in the last 10 ovs..even after the introduction of Bat.Powerplay,we still score 90-100 runs.So what is the difference.I think teams havent figured out yet when to take Bat.powerplay..Ideally,it should be taken in the middle ovs or when the ball is changed after 34 ovs..

 

[iHammad]

Current partnership 19 runs, 1.4 overs, RR: 11.40

 

[dani2k]

I want a link bro, not the S.A score prediction.

) Haha..that was some response!

 

[Kray_jackson7]

fielders stood back forcing afridi to take the single and put fawad on strike
