Pakistan v Zimbabwe | Group A | WC 11 | Pallekele | 14/3/11 | Pakistan innings

[mithun_minhas]

YK to show Afridi how to bat and not choke...

 

[TigerJat]

good move by afridi to promote himself, but didn't work

 

[strongman123]

Its funny how Afridi says he is a bowler and not a batsman, but promotes himself to #4 batting position .

 

[Sherazkhalid]

Another wicket here and we are in trouble ...

Yep, lets forget the NRR and win this game.

 

[Gujra]

why cant we treat Ray Price with respect man?..he's a great bowler.

Because of his face for some reason it is annoying

 

[ZenBowman]

Price is a boss, master gamesmanship.....

 

[zulfiqar]

Afridi coming up made no sense to me really. I'm just assuming he did this to see how he would fare against Zimbabweans and then try it out against Aussies if he came off today... well THAT worked! Razzler needs to come in before Afridi against Aus I think

 

[Sledger]

Shafiq just gets bat on ball and starts running.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

1 to Asad.

 

[JilaWatan]

shafiq playing the inzi role...

 

[AZ]

50 needed to win now.

 

[enigmatic_stani]

Afridi proving again his form is no better than a glorified tailender. Perfect chance to see his team home.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Misbah ko kyu ni bheja??

 

[goldleaf]

Asad shafique is our wall! 

 

[Strike!]

No more wickets please.

 

[pakcricketfan]

Asad should see us through..
InshAllah

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Almost.

 

[Sledger]

Almost caught and bowled!

 

[iRfaN_LA]

YK almost gone, lucky.

 

[Sherazkhalid]

YK almost gone,c&b.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Afridi coming up made no sense to me really. I'm just assuming he did this to see how he would fare against Zimbabweans and then try it out against Aussies if he came off today... well THAT worked! Razzler needs to come in before Afridi against Aus I think

Okay.

 

[Wasim_Waqar]

shahid afridi- a brainless batsman

Do Pakistan, especially the skipper, understand the concept of D/L and losing wickets?!!!!!

 

[Batman]

Pakistan | 3/113 | 25 Overs | Need 49 runs to win from 78 balls

2 off the over!

 

[hur rizvi]

D/L par score???

 

[Bhaijaan]

Afridi is not a minnow basher like
He saves his best for Australia )

 

[Amjid Javed]

Can pakistan actually finish off a job with out ever having to make things difficult?

 

[Afridi_Fan]

1 to

 

[goldleaf]

Blame it on the boom boom bats!

Please revert back to mb malik sher!

 

[Fireworks11]

That is how Shahid plays. You cannot change him. It's part of the package!

 

[Sledger]

24 ahead on d/l still.

 

[tallashk]

hmmmm Afridi really needs to calm down....

this is zimbabwae, such inning agaisnt Australlia or knockout stages can be dreadful for us....

He needs to play like captain and not a Amatuer!

he is yet in his teens.. dont expect that much from him. this is what he is capable of. you can't count on hafeez , afridi etc to win a big title. you need professionals and thats why you see aus not getting out on cheap totals in big games.

asad played well but he will be dropped again in favour of akmals family. they will not play with 2 proper bowlers but with 3-4 part timers they will prove again that shoaib is unfit but they want him in team.. they wll not give a chance to junaid khan as perhaps they dont him to prove that they are wrong and doing wrong. pak is definitely going to see tough time in qf and i see 20% chances to win against professional teams like south africa and india.

 

[hur rizvi]

D/L par score = 89

 

[Munna]

asad & younis ......the partnership is like turtle & tortoise!
and their 3rd world cousine misbah komodo is still waiting to come

 

[ace4rmspace]

That flick around the pads again ... I hate that shot!

 

[JilaWatan]

Can pakistan actually finish off a job with out ever having to make things difficult?

that would not be pakistan then

 

[Fireworks11]

Ramiz: "Asad operates well within his walls"

 

[iRfaN_LA]

Price sledging now.

 

[AZ]

'Operates well within his walls'

[Sledger]

Operates well within his walls.

WTH? )

 

[mithun_minhas]

Afridi is not a minnow basher like

I agree...

Afridi is saving his best against the best.

Tait will be in wheel chair after the mauling he receives from

His name would be Shaun Tatti

 

[Afridi_Fan]

1 more to YK

 

[JilaWatan]

God, ramiz please dont make a fool out of urself

 

[Bhaijaan]

Man this Ray Price dude has career economy rate of 3.86

Which bowlers are ahead of him in that department?

 

[Iqbilla]

Tendu watch & learn ...Shafiq showing you how to chase SUCCESSFULLY

 

[Gujra]

come on folks it is not like Afridi got out like that for first time...........

 

[Sledger]

Ray Price is waaaay better than Ray man.

 

[Batman]

Pakistan | 3/116 | 26 Overs | Need 46 runs to win from 72 balls

[saajidrox]

Ray price looks like the one who scares children and make them cry

 

[JilaWatan]

umpire signing a blank check for price

 

[iRfaN_LA]

Ray Price is waaaay better than Ray man.

[Faisalabadimunda]

[Khan88]

Blame it on the boom boom bats!

Shehzad has been dreadful since the Boom Boom bat.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Asad takes 2.

 

[AZ]

forehand smash down the ground 2 more :agassi

 

[Afridi_Fan]

1 more to Shafiq.

 

[Strike!]

Well struck for 2.

 

[Sherazkhalid]

One of these need to go till the end, after Misbah we are pretty much done with the specialist bats.

 

[ZenBowman]

Two wickets and two maidens needed.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Asad in nervous 40s

 

[JilaWatan]

shafiq on 47....so happy for this guy

 

[Sledger]

Shot! Moves to 47*

 

[Iqbilla]

50 runs in high pressure chase in seaming conditions...This guy has great future !!!!

Already bigger match winner than Tendu !!

 

[the Great Khan]

asad doing well..like I thought unlike some people who were having babies..lack of cricket knowledge on this forum astounds me at times!

 

[goldleaf]

Shehzad has been dreadful since the Boom Boom bat.

He scored a few centuries with boom boom bat, no?

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Single to YK.

 

[Wasim_Waqar]

Just need to milk the bowling. No need for heroics here

 

[amirfanforlife]

Asad in nervous 40s

Hope he doesn't pull off a Hafeez!

 

[Afridi_Fan]

41 needed in 66.

 

[Batman]

Pakistan | 3/121 | 27 Overs | Need 41 runs to win from 66 balls

5 off the over!

 

[Sherazkhalid]

[AZ]

11 overs to go, 41 runs required.

 

[Wasim_Waqar]

50 runs in high pressure chase in seaming conditions...This guy has great future !!!!

Already bigger match winner than Tendu !!

So does that make Sreesanth better than Waqar because Sreesanth single-handedly won a Joburg test for his country?

 

[Deewana Mastana]

121/3 after 27 overs

 

[Sledger]

Edged but no slip.
