Toss: Just heard that Dilshan has won the toss and Sri Lanka will bat first.

cricinfo

 

[A.M.]

[shahidafridi123]

For Pakistan, Imran Farhat comes in for Younis Khan and Aizaz Cheema replaces Junaid Khan

 

[siccric]

Hoping to see some Gul magic today

 

[Amjid Javed]

For Pakistan, Imran Farhat comes in for Younis Khan and Aizaz Cheema replaces Junaid Khan

As much as i dont like farhat, thank god YK isnt playing!

 

[Fawad2010]

YK not playing, there better not be a collapse when we chase!

issed:

 

[Sherlock]

150/160 is a must, so says Mr Arnold.

 

[Asif321]

Very good selection Misbah ..... Love iT

 

[Fawad2010]

Get Dilo-shah early, he can create havoc all by himself.

 

[Asif321]

oh no sarfraz is dropped

 

[Ryw]

come on tell the haters that why you are a handy cricketer

 

[Fawad2010]

Malik is not playing is it ??

Mohammad Hafeez, Asad Shafiq, Imran Farhat, Misbah-ul-Haq*, Shoaib Malik, Umar Akmal†, Shahid Afridi, Sohail Tanvir, Saeed Ajmal, Umar Gul, Aizaz Cheema

 

[saeed-sohail]

Good call by misbah leaving out YK.

 

[12cavalry]

Cheema is playing

 

[saeed-sohail]

Malik keeps his place ahead of sarfraz. pathetic.

 

[Alamgeer]

SL to score 180 plus and Umer akmal to score his first T20 hundred and win a game for Pak.

 

[Mian Hassan]

Asad Shafiq, in t20's ?????? whats happening here... stupid choice

 

[Mian Hassan]

SL to score 180 plus and Umer akmal to score his first T20 hundred and win a game for Pak.

ok

 

[Ryw]

SL to score 180 plus and Umer akmal to score his first T20 hundred and win a game for Pak.

plz no more mazhar majeed

 

[Runner Up]

Predict Shoaib Malik's score today................. 22?

 

[Asif321]

sarfraz would have been better choice then shafiq or malik
had tested him

 

[12cavalry]

How many chances is Mr. Mirza gonna get?!?

 

[nads_rocks]

No sense in having players like Shafiq and Younis Khan in a T20 format, besides Younis had retired so why is he selected in the T20 squad anyway!

Sohail Tanvir is a trash bowler and will leak so many runs!

Keep them below 140/150 and its our game!

 

[AbdulrazzaqFan]

Why'd they drop Sarfaraz again ?

 

[Asif321]

crap tennis is going on in my ten sports coverage
coulnt see the toss , have to wait until match starts

 

[Asif321]

Why'd they drop Sarfaraz again ?

 

[Justcrazy]

Good that YK is out , but sarfaraz should have played. Asad should not be in the shortest format.

 

[Inswinger]

An out of form Malik ahead of YK?

 

[Strike!]

Good crowd in.

 

[Alamgeer]

plz no more mazhar majeed

U can check my previous predictions.

 

[Justcrazy]

Sri Lanka have good depth in batting

 

[Mian Hassan]

apparantly the stadium is full

 

[Lara400]

Fartart is just going to do another smelly one, when is the smell going to go

 

[pakcricketfan]

aint playing? good.

playing? lol could have gone in with - he's a better bowler and of course, a better batsman than

 

[Ryw]

No sense in having players like Shafiq and Younis Khan in a T20 format, besides Younis had retired so why is he selected in the T20 squad anyway!

Sohail Tanvir is a trash bowler and will leak so many runs!

Keep them below 140/150 and its our game!

lol Sohail Tanvir will be the key in todays match both with bat and ball

 

[Asif321]

19.48:Just heard that Ajantha Mendis and Dilruwan Perera have replaced Jeevan Mendis and Seekuuge Prasanna.

Picked this up from Twitter: "INSANE RUSH at Sheikh Zayed Stadium! You better have your tickets in hand for this one!"

Muhammad: "Why on earth is Pakistan playing with seven bowlers in a T20 match. Should have played Younis khan instead of Sohail Tanvir or Cheema."

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need to pick early wickets, they have the batting

 

[shahrukh619]

Gul is opening the bowling, played and missed.

 

[saj001]

Farhat in t20 )

 

[Sledger]

Seems like a good atmosphere.

 

[Justcrazy]

I also feel Pakistan playing one bowler too many, it looks as if they consider the slogger Tanvir as a bowling all rounder.

 

[pakcricketfan]

Picked this up from Twitter: "INSANE RUSH at Sheikh Zayed Stadium! You better have your tickets in hand for this one!"

That's AZ bhai's tweet!!

 

[Runner Up]

Sanga talking about playing good cricket not for big scores just play positive cricket

 

[Justcrazy]

come on Pakisssssssssssss tan

 

[Asif321]

We really need to win this one..... we have been worst in t20 lately

 

[Justcrazy]

I think cheema will pick most wickets.

 

[Asif321]

cricinfo:19.50:So Pakistan have several bowling options. They're swimming in allrounders.

 

[Ryw]

come on pakistan kill them

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need to win this , they had a poor run in 20 20 lately

 

[Sherlock]

Sanga and Dilshan to score 50's but Pakistan to restrict SL to 150.

 

[Runner Up]

As soon as I heard "This is Ten Sports Liveeeeeeee" and guess what



Power cut ) (Load shedding Time 9 to 11)

 

[Bullet Drive]

Friday night frenzy. Danny Morison is on.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Pakistan are the red hot favorites.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Tinge of green on the pitch however is real real flat, good for T20

 

[Justcrazy]

I think Pakistan should be able to chase 150 here.

 

[Black Zero]

Good call

"Out of form" Malik >>> YK
reason:

Malik knows this format better than anyone...must feed Misbah.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

First game i'm watching in a long time, hope its a belter.

Bad thing is I have to see on the field

 

[Bullet Drive]
