Pakistan v Sri Lanka | T20 WC | Group F | Johannesburg | 17/9/07 | Pak Inns

[PlanetPakistan]

Butt not doing the job for my liking but at least he is not panicking

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Nazir Gone

Well bowled slower ball

 

[hellopak]

The way Butt is playing, and scoring two runs on FREE HIT and playing full toss to fielder then i dont think Nazir have any option but to slogg everything. If he got out then every one will blame him rather than BUTT for whom he is sacrificing his wicket every time,

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Nazir shud be dropped?

 

[Oxy]

Azhaan break on Geo.

 

[PlanetPakistan]

DARN! beaten for the lack of pace!

 

[iZeeshan]

Butt will destroy us!!!! Why didn't Hafeez open!

At least I get to catch the entire Pakistani innings by following ball-by-ball since I have study hall then graphics.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Mohammad Hafeez in

 

[12thMan]

wrong man out. SL have a plan

 

[Oxy]

Slower ball got Nazir in the end - nearly got Butt 2nd ball of the match

 

[asifp]

that wicket belongs to Butt sahab, hogg the strike dont score runs , put all the pressure on the other batsman

 

[sagar]

Butt and Nazir both should be dropped.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

For goosness skae Mr Vice Captain

 

[Usman Chadda]

Brilliant slower ball by Vaas, would have got out most batsmen!

Pakistan struggling big time at 22/1

 

[KaSaNoVa_G]

Its ok ladz.. Butt is here he will build the pressue up on our batsman and make them give it there all

Just give him 7/10 overs to get in yet !!

 

[pak4life]

last time we see nazir in pak colours...hopefully

 

[Afridi_Fan]

For goosness sake Mr Vice Captain

 

[PlanetPakistan]

M Hafeez the new man in

 

[hellopak]

Butt should change his name to an ASS

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Bowled Butt gone

 

[Oxy]

BUTT OUT! BOWLED immediately

22-2

 

[KaSaNoVa_G]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS his outt .. now we can have a go at a score.. woohoo !!

 

[dirk diggler]

good riddance to bad rubbish, should never ever play T20 or ODIs again

 

[iZeeshan]

Oh man! Nazir gets out instead of Butt. THIS STINKS!

 

[tauseefm]

BUTT GONeeeeee.. now we have more chances to score around 180

 

[PlanetPakistan]

What the heck! Salman is cleaned up

 

[Oxy]

How dare you guys doubt my 0-2 prediction early in this thread!

 

[sagar]

Bowled Butt gone

Thank God, now we can see some good shots.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Butt a booming innings of 12 off 17 balls come to an end

 

[Muhammad]

I don't mind this sort of dismissal for Nazir in 20:20, he was outdone by some clever bowling from a good bowler

 

[Usman Chadda]

This is terrible! How can we win a match with these two jokers at the top?!

Salman gone attempting a wild hit

Pakistan 22/2

P.S. We are screwed!!!

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Yk In

 

[KaSaNoVa_G]

Salman getting out is the best thing to happen to us this game yet !!

 

[iZeeshan]

Oh man I am late! Then Butt goes! Both openers gone in two balls. TROUBLE...

 

[Oxy]

Since when is YK's fave shot a reverse sweep

 

[Imy]

Pakistan wont make 180 i hope i am wrong they are not used to the bounce

 

[Usman Chadda]

I don't mind this sort of dismissal for Nazir in 20:20, he was outdone by some clever bowling from a good bowler

I agree. This time Nazir cant be blamed for being a dunderhead (thats a first eh?)

 

[junaidmalik]

Man its sad when we PAK fans are more happy than SL fans when Butt is out, what a waste of a batsman

 

[Oxy]

Some good bowling - easy to forget that in all the doom & gloom!

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Man this is superb stuff from Fernando, not in the com. box but the one who is bowling

 

[dirk diggler]

pulsating r/r of just over 5 omg

 

[asifp]

me asking for Akmal/Hafeez to open looks even better now. The openers did nothing but put pressure on everyone else

 

[KaSaNoVa_G]

Nazir is always angry like us when he goes to bat cause he got a CRAP 20/20 tsman next to him playing a test match ... imagine if that was me or you and we had a crap batsman playing at the pace of Butt..

 

[Muhammad]

As opposed to Salman who got out in probably worse fashion than Nazir the other day, which I didn't think was possible.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

single to YK ruins the maiden

 

[Uzzy]

Useless Salman out. Why he keeps on getting selected is beyond me.

 

[Oxy]

I see a big partnership coming up from Hafo and YK!

 

[sagar]

Lets see how Mr. Anchor does?

 

[iZeeshan]

Wow, only 6 an over. Big time troubles.

 

[iZeeshan]

Wasn't Afridi supposed to be coming in early?

 

[Afridi_Fan]

4 overs gone 24/2

a run rate which will take us to 120

 

[Oxy]

PAk batsman worryingly finding the fielders - Sanath aint making that mistake when he bats!

24-2 off 4 overs

 

[Usman Chadda]

Pakistan 24/2 in 4 overs

A pathetic run-rate of 6.00

 

[Oxy]

Wasn't Afridi supposed to be coming in early?

Only according to The Hindu

 

[dirk diggler]

I see a big partnership coming up from Hafo and YK!

big p/ship only gonna help us if it comes in quick time

 

[iZeeshan]

Just 6 an over, 2 runs off that one.

These two really need to play well. Get around 90 runs in the next 10 overs.

 

[iZeeshan]

Only according to The Hindu

Makes sense....

 

[Oxy]

Huge play & miss by Hafo - no damage done

 

[Afridi_Fan]

down the track a wild swing by Hafeez and the fate is he will miss

 

[junaidmalik]

Yaar don't test may patient...rooza heh

 

[Usman Chadda]

Pressure starting to build. Hafeez going for a wild slog

 

[sagar]

Just 6 an over, 2 runs off that one.

These two really need to play well. Get around 90 runs in the next 10 overs.

More like 120 in next 10 overs.

 

[iZeeshan]

Too many dot balls.

Oxy bhai, damage is done. We are losing overs, FAST!

 

[Noman]

we deserve to loose this match,, Salman Butt isnt a player who is goood enuf for 20-20 cricket..

 

[Afridi_Fan]

4444444444444

By Hafeez

 

[Oxy]

BIG 4 by Hafo

 

[iafzal]

Afridi will come around the 10th over

 

[Oxy]

we deserve to loose this match,, Salman Butt isnt a player who is goood enuf for 20-20 cricket..

Have your wrists healed from last time??

 

[iZeeshan]

Four! Good stuff.

Is this a really flat deck, or is there something for the bowlers?

 

[Afridi_Fan]

another 4444444444444444444

By Hafeez

 

[Oxy]

Another beauty by Hafo!

32-2

 

[Muhammad]

Need to see through the next 6 overs without any further loss then go mad, singles will do the job for the batsmen.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Hafeez pulls Vaas for a boundary

Next ball, Hafeez gets under the ball and lifts it over midwicket

 

[iZeeshan]

And another! Good work Hafeez.

32/2 4.4 overs.

 

[Oxy]

I said it in the last game - thats one hell of a bat Hafo has!

 

[sagar]

Four! Good stuff.

Is this a really flat deck, or is there something for the bowlers?

Only against Pakistani batsmen.

 

[junaidmalik]

kahah ge wo din when SL were a joke....Oh yeah... around 1983

 

[Afridi_Fan]

single to Haffez

 

[iZeeshan]

We do have a lot of batting, so if we lose no more wickets for the next 5 overs, we are REALLY good to go.

 

[Oxy]

Quick single by the lads

33-2
