Pakistan v West Indies | 1st ODI | Abu Dhabi | 12/11/08 | PAK Innings

[Luton Bad Boy]

White West Indian to bowl

 

[undisputed]

now its officially 7

 

[Ghoshtbuster]

Nash coming on to bowl ) look at him he looks so funny and wrong)

"left arm medium" - we should abuse, him.

 

[swaziboy]

what the........................
goraaaaaaaa playing fo the windies
bowling..

am i seeing right here?

 

[undisputed]

i would expect a senior to hit a good knock today

 

[lollol]

Yk going run a ball,not bad.I think Khurram now has to start getting a move on here

Once he gets a 50, he will play quicker i think

 

[Ghoshtbuster]

) this guy most definatley is NOT West Indian.

 

[OZGOD]

Why are you scoring so slow?

 

[undisputed]

pakistan have batting depth that's why they should look to take more risk

 

[hashman]

Malik should keep the power play for the Afridi.

Yea that would be a good idea. His mishits will hopefully clear the infield and there will be less risk of getting caught out

 

[swaziboy]

this this nash the tony cozier connection????????

 

[OZGOD]

what the........................

bowling..

am i seeing right here?

Dion Nash? He's from Queensland.

 

[lollol]

Why are you scoring so slow?

Malik tactics, i think we won one game against India by playing like this.
Since then, he always plays like this )

He wants to go nuclear when he takes the 3rd powerplay..

Very risky and poor strategy if u ask me

 

[Ghoshtbuster]

Dion Nash? He's from Queensland.

Brendan i think. Apparently he has played in Aus.

 

[Sheikh]

Why are you scoring so slow?

Butt did a Krapich.

 

[Ghoshtbuster]

Hopefully Manzoor gets his 50.

 

[Bublu Bhuyan]

Nash to Younis Khan, 1 run, dropped,short of a good length outside off, Younis tries to cut that towards point, gets an under-edge that the keeper puts down

 

[lollol]

Yea that would be a good idea. His mishits will hopefully clear the infield and there will be less risk of getting caught out

Oh rly??

His mishits are miles in the air, so it doesnt matter

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Exact 7 runs per over required now

 

[undisputed]

making the singles look easy but you need to slide in a boundary or 2 every so often

 

[undisputed]

younus nearly dragging it

 

[Luton Bad Boy]

30 Partnership in quick fashion here...

But a boundary an over is a must now

 

[Ghoshtbuster]

49*

 

[Mohsin]

50 for Manzoor

 

[undisputed]

7.1 required

 

[Muyazzim Khan]

If anyone wants confirmation that the speed gun is dodgy then the proof was there when Nash's delivery was recorded at 163kph.

 

[Ghoshtbuster]

50!

Yes!! this guy looks good.

 

[lollol]

2nd fifty for Manzoor!!

Now go nuclear!!!

 

[Luton Bad Boy]

50 for Manzoor

 

[SalaamPakistan]

I think the stage is being set for Sahibzada to fail

Isn't he technically a failure and a tailender to say least?

 

[Afridi_Fan]

50 UP

Ab tu maar merey bhai

 

[Mohsin]

Shot! 44444444444444

 

[Sheikh]

Good innings be Manzoor. I've been quite impressed by his technique, his calm, and his running. Needs to keep going now.

 

[SalaamPakistan]

If anyone wants confirmation that the speed gun is dodgy then the proof was there when Nash's delivery was recorded at 163kph.

[hashman]

great shot Younus, finally a boundary. Good 50 from Manzoor.

 

[swaziboy]

another 44444
**** bgetting thrashed

 

[Mohsin]

444444 More Go Yk

 

[Ghoshtbuster]

Nash getting the abuse he deserves for pretending to be a WI.

 

[lollol]

consecutive FOURs

Rip this Aussie apart

 

[Sheikh]

Couple of boundaries. Exactly what was required. Going along nicely now.

 

[hashman]

does Y. Khan have sponsers for his bat now.

 

[Muyazzim Khan]

Khurram Manzoor (rhb) 50 67 4 0 74.62

Decent stuff from the young fella. Showing up Butt badly.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Nash getting the abuse he deserves for pretending to be a WI.

[sehban]

105/1 23

 

[SalaamPakistan]

Brilliant Fifty from Manzoor !

 

[Boi]

Well played Manzoor!

 

[SalaamPakistan]

Two 4's in a row. Poor Nash

 

[Ghoshtbuster]

good reverse sweep

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Yk is keeping the required runs close to 7, Not bad at all.

 

[Mohsin]

We're going well, especially with Malik, Misbah and Akmal still left

 

[Luton Bad Boy]

Gayle has figures that Warne would be proud of at the moment

 

[Muyazzim Khan]

The test for Manzoor will be how he adapts when teams and bowlers target his weaknesses. This is where most of our bowlers and batsmen fail to become world beaters.

 

[Ghoshtbuster]

26 off 23 for younis so far

 

[Mohsin]

50 from 55 balls, good stuff.

 

[Muyazzim Khan]

We're going well, especially with Malik, Misbah and Akmal still left

I have more faith in Fawad than Akmal. Akmal has done nothing of significance lower down the order. To be honest he is a poor lower order ODI batsman.

 

[Luton Bad Boy]

A nice problem for Pakistan to have...

Manzoor has 2 fifties, replacing N Jamshed who has played well and deserves an openers slot, but, that leaves Salman Butt now who we know can perform..

At the moment this is a good opening problem to have

 

[lollol]

The test for Manzoor will be how he adapts when teams and bowlers target his weaknesses. This is where most of our bowlers and batsmen fail to become world beaters.

Agree, but its good to see the selectors at least try youngsters instead of the proven failures

 

[Ghoshtbuster]

quite happily suckling on the teat that is the WI spin/slow/crap Australian guy bolwing combination

 

[sehban]

118/1 25 overs

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Pak Require 177 from 25 over with 9 wickets in hand at a run rate of 7.08

 

[lollol]

Required rate ~7

We would want that to be around 6 actually

 

[Boi]

Pakistan now looking in a decent position!

 

[Sparhawk]

Younis 28(25)

Hes looking really good. I think Butt must have been in extra bad form because everyone else is scoring freely.

 

[Muyazzim Khan]

Agree, but its good to see the selectors at least try youngsters instead of the proven failures

No, I am delighted that he is playing and I pray that he keeps working and improving. I don't want him to stagnate like the others.

 

[Boi]

wide ball!

 

[Bumblebee]

impressive stuff here from manzoor!

 

[Amjid Javed]

I hope Khurram Can get a ton and lead pakistan home today!

 

[sehban]

124/1 26 overs

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Pakistan require another 171 runs with 9 wickets and 24.0 overs remaining at 7.12 Per over.

 

[Muyazzim Khan]

Overall the fitness of our guys seems okay Shoaib apart.

 

[lollol]

Please move on guys

 

[lollol]

Damn, there seems to be a WI fielder everywhere

 

[Ghoshtbuster]

) did u get a screen shot of that "ball"-boy

 

[Raz]

Did Bishop just say Misbah is a good finisher?

 

[Muhammad Saad]

What Nash doing in the WI side??? isnt every 3rd bowler in WI can bowl in 140s? so wat is the point in selecting serious Gentle medium trundler?

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Pakistan require another 166 runs with 9 wickets and 23.0 overs remaining at 7.21 per over.

 

[itduzz]

beast playing with scissors

 

[Indiafan]

Required rate climbing but I believe they are counting on the final power play pvers

 

[Mohsin]

Axcellent running, 1 into 2

 

[SalaamPakistan]

Did Bishop just say Misbah is a good finisher?

He isn't?
