[Jive Jive Pakistan]

6 of asif

 

[dirk diggler]

malik shud not have bowled asif.....y o y oy y

 

[Oxy]

BIG SIX

Asif getting slapped around

10 off 2 balls.

This needed to be tight over

 

[Saj]

A big six. Not clever bowling from Asif, bowling in the slot.

Maliks biggest mistake today - Asif bowling at the death ?

 

[The Chaudrey]

why Asif bowling last over ????

 

[tauseefm]

asif is getting spanking

 

[12thMan]

asif getting battered at the death

 

[PlanetPakistan]

[Noddy]

just not a death bowler in 2020...
this is poor and gives NZ a push

 

[Rob H]

Followed by another smash to mid wicket for 4. Taylor doing the biz.

 

[dirk diggler]

[Jive Jive Pakistan]

[swaziboy]

asif gettting hammmmeredd

 

[IMMY69]

this should hopefully bring asif down to earth a little bit...

 

[Saj]

Woohoo Ross. Smashes him over cow corner for the maximum.

where have you been when the wickets were falling ?

 

[Oxy]

I thought it was established that Asif isnt a death bowler.

Another 4!

14 off 3 balls.

This will defalte the Pak openers.

 

[Monsee]

Is Taylor, Butt in disguise?

 

[Oxy]

Widish - gets away with it.

dot

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

this last over could be costly....come on Asif

 

[The Chaudrey]

should have left 1 over from Gul at the end.....

 

[iZeeshan]

Oh dear. Asif murdered. 140 up.

 

[dirk diggler]

anyone but asif could n shud have bowled the last over, he is ordinary in T20, no variety

 

[Saj]

142 for 8 - last ball

 

[KaSaNoVa_G]

What The Crap He Make Asif Bowl At The End.. He Always Gets Hit At The End.. So Why Make Him Bowl .. Now Thw Nz Score Looks Good

 

[The Chaudrey]

4-6-4-0-2

 

[Oxy]

Great fielding

saves a boundary

142-8

1 balls to go

 

[Jive Jive Pakistan]

2 runs

 

[faisalm]

No he's some boundaries

 

[faisalm]

Dropped catch from Akmal

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

good fielding by misbah

 

[Saj]

Akmal drops an absolute sitter. A dolly catch - schoolboy stuff

 

[Gunner786]

normal service resumes

akmal struggles to catch simple catches

 

[Rob H]

Kamran drops the easiest catch in the world.

143/8 off 20 overs.

 

[Jive Jive Pakistan]

dropped after final bowl 143 for 8

 

[Oxy]

Kami drops a sitter of the last ball

143-8 off 20 overs

Poor finish - very sloppy.

Will affect Pak during the break

 

[dirk diggler]

class keeper that akmal

 

[The Chaudrey]

Akmal is a *#*?. He should have taken that catch

 

[swaziboy]

akmal spills a sitter

will the last over prove costly for pak

i thinkn nz have a goot total

 

[faisalm]

That last over could be very important in the outcome of the game. If we get through, Asif can't bowl at the death.

 

[Rob H]

1 balls to go

spoken like Inzi himself

 

[iZeeshan]

Wow, bad stuff from Akmal. That should have been caught.

 

[Saj]

I'd settle for 143 for 8.

We should make that.

 

[Oxy]

Its a great effort by Pak - but that last over will stick in the mind of theplayers. Sloppy

 

[KaSaNoVa_G]

Great Akmal ends it with a easy drop.. now we we loose by a 1 run he can be ready for a good bollacking

The last over has put the pressure on us now and NZ sohuld be deffently coming out all guns blazing now : (

 

[dirk diggler]

competitive score thnx to asif

 

[MCMLXXXII]

yaar Asif's last over spoils such a good bowling effort. 135 would have been so good to chase.

 

[Oxy]

Kiwi were down & out - they may actully fancy their chances!

 

[P4K1 #1]

bad over from asif.. i still think 143 is a good score to get.. we just got to play good.

 

[The Chaudrey]

Alam 2-29 and Gul 3-15. Good bowling from those two.

 

[azcali78]

Bad decision by Malik to give Asif last over.....

 

[Oxy]

Should be PAk's game.

Just need a decent start.

CAnt belive how well Gul bowled.

 

[iZeeshan]

Still should be an easy chase.

Maybe Malik and Afridi told Asif to bowl crap so they can bat

 

[dirk diggler]

i might be wrong, but asif really seems disinterested, not only in this game but previous ones too, prima donnaitus

 

[W63L35]

Need a start........

the total is similar to India's 140!! So may be defendable!

 

[Obsessed_in_a_good_way]

A horrible final over from Asif ... gave away 17 crucial runs. 143/8 is not a bad score on this track. Pakistan should not have to struggle, but they have their work cut out for them.

Bad decision giving the ball to Asif. I was sure that the last two overs would be bowled by Hafeez and Tanvir.

 

[Pathan007]

MALIK is culprit for the last over. i thought he was smart. every1 knows asif is finish in last overs. he simply can't bowl.

 

[Islamabadi]

what the hell is malik thinking with bowling asif in the last over...

 

[iZeeshan]

Crap, Fawad will come down the order. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...

 

[Mercenary]

follow the chase in this thread...

[Saj]

In my opinion. Asif should bowl his 4 overs straight through in this form of the game. His length is not ideal for bowling at the death. A small blunder by Malik, but I dont think it will affect the outcome.

 

[Kashif]

Overall excellant performance from Pakistan slightly untarnished by the last Asif over. 144 to win will still be a testing score.

 

[Saj]

By the way, despite Akmals drop, I thought Pakistan were excellent in the field.

High intensity, took their catches and generally the throwing was good.
