Pakistan vs Afghanistan| Asia Cup 2014 | Fatullah | 27/2/2014| Pakistan Innings

[Sakss]

Pakistan taking on their neighbours Afghanistan..

The Afghans have won the toss and will bowl first

A warm afternoon so dew expected in the evening

Anwer Ali in for Bhatti

 

[mussu-100]

Blessing in disguise. We don't know how to chase.

 

[Asif321]

thought Fawad will play

 

[hussain.r97]

I thought Fawad would get a chance against a weaker side...

 

[Madplayer]

afghanistan have made a blunder here by chasing

 

[Madplayer]

pakistan have to win a bonus point here

 

[HamzaSaeen]

Afghanistan plays the toss into our hands

 

[hussain.r97]

Even though the toss went in our favour... Misbah seriously needs to practice his coin tossing skills. The toss dramatically changes Pakistan's chances....

 

[Asif321]

Ajmal Hafeez Afridi will get nothing from surface in 2nd innings

 

[Sakss]

There will be a lot of dew today in the 2nd innings

 

[AFG_Brit]

You think nabi asked pakistan to bat 1st due to dew factor in 2nd innings?

[London_Lahori]

Need a big score, dew will mess us up in the second innings

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

Good to see Pakistan bat first. Let's hope they can make the most of it.

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Hamid Hassan not playing.

Pakistan can manage afg batting with dew even 270-280 will be winning total

[cricket sport]

unlucky misbah. lost the toss again.

 

[Justcrazy]

Now will get a 5 fer against minnows and he will be hailed as sobers again

 

[Justcrazy]

I feel bad for fawad

 

[Sakss]

Twice iv seen every player saying the national anthem apart from afridi...may be he doesnt know it :?

 

[Justcrazy]

This fascination will never go , I think he should be made president of the country.

 

[Justcrazy]

8 mins to go now ...

 

[Fahdi]

Does anyone know how a bonus point is awarded when defending a total?

 

[hamzie]

congrats afghanistan on the victory
you deserve it

 

[Madplayer]

Say the experts.. and plus the weather is the hottest so far which will result in more dew.

need a cushion of 30 runs . 330 maybe

 

[hamzie]

bowl em out under 40 overs

 

[Fahdi]

bowl em out under 40 overs

A little too tough dont you think. Chasing a target within 40 overs is easier by comparison.

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

Here we go..

 

[ritzy_123]

swinging away from Sharjeel..

 

[Madplayer]

the first one didnt carry very nicely .

 

[ritzy_123]

that one came towards the pads for no run

 

[Saeed]

Afridi will get century a today.

 

[ritzy_123]

Shapoor Zadran has got a really good action

 

[Justcrazy]

Not much crowd

 

[ritzy_123]

Afridi will get century a today.

of zeros

 

[hamzie]

) what a bowling action

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

Should be an easy win but you never know. Pakistan have been known to surprise us.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need to these bowlers

 

[Red Devil]

Shapoor bowls at a good pace

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan key game would be against india , whoever wins that would be in Final with Lanka

 

[Madplayer]

i really hope sharjeel scores big today.

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

) what a bowling action

Vikram Akramenda seems mighty impressed with his action

 

[taqi]

Discussing long run up

[Justcrazy]

Sharjeel playing with patience

 

[ritzy_123]

single off the over

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

Afridi should be promoted up the order today and be given a license to kill.

 

[hamzie]

yaar hes running from so far away and bowling at 132km/h
kya mazaak hai

 

[Justcrazy]

I think 260 would be enough here to win the game , Unless pakistan looking for Bonus point

 

[Madplayer]

1 from the first over

 

[Justcrazy]

Afridi should be promoted up the order today and be given a license to kill.

Given a chance to go for the Andersons record and reclaim that

 

[Madplayer]

a little swing for dawlat

 

[Saeed]

Pakistan must score 350 against these guys. I thought they were fast but they are India version2.

 

[Justcrazy]

This is sharjeel 7th game , time running out for him , needs to do something.

 

[Justcrazy]

Does Pakistan have a Plan when they bat ?

 

[Justcrazy]

Why Pakistan batsmen not rotate the strike ?

 

[zabalestmsm]

Come on Sharjeel score a double hundred today!

 

[Red Devil]

:4 Classssss

 

[Madplayer]

sharjeel looks to be a very limited batsman. Only looks to hack it towards the leg side.
Just while i an typing it he plays a cover drive

 

[mussu-100]

:4 by Sharjeel

 

[zabalestmsm]

We shud go for the bonus point.

 

[Justcrazy]

:4

5 after 2 overs

 

[taqi]

[Naim]

afghan bowlers are swinging the ball and ours can,t ... what is happening with our bowlers

 

[imshally81]

What is the criteria for bonus Point ??

 

[Saqib]

The last delivery Dalwat was 140 Kph really impressive!

I have to say they look decent bowlers to me and Pakistan batsman should respect.

 

[Justcrazy]

I think Sharjeel is basically a @27- 30 average player , he need to work hard to get to next leavel

 

[HamzaSaeen]

We never have a plan while batting...
Rotate strike ffs

 

[Saeed]

Every time this guy bowls I feel like Ishant sharma is bowling.

Md. Akram is useless as a coach , Aquib was much better. PCB needs to get him back or get a professional one like Donald, Bishop , Pollock.

 

[Madplayer]

wasim is annoying

 

[Justcrazy]

This is the issue with Pakistan batters , either it is a hack for boundary or dots.
