Good start here but we need to get Sarwan out as well!

I believe Gul broke Sarwans foot a while back in a test match. Would LOVE to see it again :gul. PLEASE:D
Yeah, he should land another one around the same area just as a gentle reminder.
 
how come no Pakistan team is able to contain their extras tally. Windies only had 6 in their entire innings whereas we here have already reached that mark in the 4th over

What happened to that other kid who opened for stanford supserstars?
I think he was a replacement for Xavier Marshall as XM was dropped
 
why the heck is gul bowling short?!

woah, too much swing coming from tanvir. so much swing that some wides are coming
 
arch what is up with all these extra's! They need to keep the bowling tighter!
 
Sultan Yusuf said:
We need :younis back!


but we have the next :wasim bowling now

tanvir is a smart operator, he has to show more variations though, im still waitinf for the arm ball and the faster ball, heck ive been waiting for the faster ball since the t20 world cup
 
.5 Sohail Tanvir to Chattergoon, OUT, gone!! a teasing line outside off, pitches on a good length and moving away from the left hander, Chattergoon has a prod at it, gets a thin outside edge straight to Kamran Akmal, who makes no mistake. West Indies in early trouble here!



So looks like his in-swinger is coming along nicely now...great!

Ramiz jinxed Chatergoon nicely there. C'mon Gul Back Tanvir up with a Wicket please.
I think talking up a batsman before he's even got off the mark just isn't on.
 
There will be no respite for the West Indies because as soon as Tanvir is gone, in will come Rao! Go Rao!
 
great start so far...good to see pakistan doing well after a long long break. hope to see them upset the indians soon, inshallah!

chanders and ronnie at the crease, two of windies best 3...this will be the vital partnership, still a very winnable game if they add 70-80 over the next 20 overs

Lets hope they DONT bowl short!
Gul again bowling short.

He shouldnt be doing this with the experience he has
 
I'm Optimistic! I think we can nail this one, if the bowling stays as sharp as it is now. Tanvir to take 3 more wickets? Fingers crossed...
 
21/2 6 overs...match nicely poised... the good thing is that we all know windies are known to collpase.. Inshallah they will today also
just need one more wicket

this stupid malik doesnt he realize there is difference between odi and t20, gul can do more damage with new ball than that spinner tanvir
anon. said:
why isnt kamran akmal standing up to the stumps, an edge from tanvirs bowling wont let it carry
It is do the opposite day today. No doubt about it :aiqbal
 
Gul needs to take the cue from Tanvir here. With the swing Tanvir nearly yorkes Chanders even at his pace.
 
required run rate is now 5. another wicket for pakistan, and it's game on.
 
Sultan Yusuf said:
bowling speeds please!
Tanvir 125 kph. fastest might have been 131
This over Gul 123 - 134 but they didn't show speeds for all the deliveries

guess what.

There have been 6 occasions (including this one) in whcih both West Indies openers have got out for a duck.
All of those other 5 occasions, West Indies have lost the match.

Will they lose tonight? :)
West Indies, you have officially been cursed.
 
tanvir is bowling his 5th right now. i'd just let him bowl 1 more over after this... then he'd have 4 overs left, just in case west indies do recover and start cruising tanvir could come back and have a crack at the batsmen again for a wicket.

As suspected, more drift than swing for tanvir...

you're seriously annoying. he tells you NOT to quote the message and you still quote it. and you randomly type "Six!!!!". stop.
 
come on Pakistan, let's suffocate these west indians to their miserly deaths - let the beast finish them off after the match with his trademark hand-crushing handshake :D
 
2 wkts and 5 wides in this spell from tanvir, doinga good impression of wasim akram
 
Pakistan really need to stop the extras here otherwise it can really cost them the match. They've almost bowled double the extras the West Indies bowled in 49 overs
