Pakistan vs Bangladesh | T20 WC | Group F | Cape Town | 20/9/07 | Pak Inns

[Mercenary]

Pakistan are looking to chase 141 to win the match and top the group but as Bangladesh showed today they can be a fighting unit and they will scrap till the last ball.

Pakistan need to be wary of too much complacency in the face of a relatively small total.

If Butt and Nazir cant perform in this match then perhaps it's time to make a couple of changes at the top!

 

[12thMan]

Afridi to open with Nazir

 

[Mercenary]

Smart move to open with Afridi

 

[161]

akmal should open and afridi at 3 .. that would make a little more sense.

 

[faisalm]

Pakistan won't make any changes so i have got to back Nazir and Butt to try and improve their form. Afridi got to play himself in to form

 

[Plasma]

Afridi opening!!!

 

[12thMan]

ball hits the target and Nazir is down

 

[Hash]

Imran Nazir gets hit in the danda

 

[161]

[iafzal]

cricinfo doing what they do best see where the messed up now

0.1 Mashrafe Mortaza to Imran Nazir, no run, a loosener to begin with, outside off stump, Nazir lets it go through to Akmal

[iafzal]

in a lot of pain. drinking some water and still on the ground

[12thMan]

don't they have protection down there...?

yes they do but still hurts. remember Inzi getting hit in India by a spinner

 

[kablooee87]

The send Afridi up in this game? I suppose a point can be made that he needs time in the middle.

 

[junaidmalik]

one to the bread basket

 

[Muhammad]

I think Nazir needs to get hit there more often, might be the only way left to make him think a bit more when batting.

 

[12thMan]

Mashrafe just ducked in time to avoid the hit from Afridi

 

[PlanetPakistan]

haha...Murtaza running for his life.
