Pakistan vs Scotland, Warm Up ODI [26/6/06]

[Azam6380]

Malik spanking the scots

 

[ShowStopper]

So whats the score boys?

 

[Saqib]

2 FOURS in a row by Malik
the second was good back past the bowler down the ground for FOUR runs.

 

[Rana]

444444 again!!!!

 

[Uzzy]

Think they just want to give Butt some confidence, i dont think Farhat's slot is in any doubt.

I understand that, but if he still plays like this even in meaningless ODIs i honestly believe Butt should not be part of the test squad against England. I would rather have Farhat who makes atleast 60-70 then throws his wicket away rather than Butt who stuggles past 1.

 

[Saqib]

34/1

 

[Rana]

22* for malik, a potentiol 150+

 

[ShowStopper]

34/1

how many did scots scored?

 

[Saqib]

22* for malik, a potentiol 150+

 

[Uzzy]

Single taken.

 

[Saqib]

how many did scots scored?

203/8

80 for Watson
68 for McCallum

 

[Rana]

34-1 after 6 i think

 

[KA$H]

Bloody ell sounds like the farhat fan club's landed -

"60-70 runs, THEN throws his wicket away"??? talk abt optimism

 

[ShowStopper]

203/8

80 for Watson
68 for McCallum

Just what I said. Welldone boys(Scots), and how has been Inzi's Captaincy in this match.

 

[Saqib]

Bloody ell sounds like the farhat fan club's landed

It is better than scoring 1 and throwing away a wicket.

Moreover, there isn't a logical reason to be dropping Farhat given his good record recently.

 

[Uzzy]

Well im not advocating Farhat throwing his wicket away but i would rather take a batsman who can make 60-70 regularly than someone who cant.

 

[Rana]

out!

malik Gone!

 

[Saqib]

Malik OUT caught @ midoff

 

[sehsan]

he had some injury concerns and that might be a reason

 

[sam]

Cricinfo says:

A fair point being made by a colleague that Scotland will probably give Pakistan more of a contest that the current shambles that is the England ODI side.

 

[sehban]

malik out

 

[Pathan007]

noooooooooo

 

[Saqib]

Good length delivery to Malik he just hit it to mid off just like agaisnt England 2 times before. If he had timed it could have been a boundry orso. Mohammed Yousuf comes in.

 

[ShowStopper]

out!

malik Gone!

Potential 150 ha

 

[Rana]

Mannnn!!!!

send Afridi in !!

 

[KA$H]

Well im not advocating Farhat throwing his wicket away but i would rather take a batsman who can make 60-70 regularly than someone who cant.

[Saqib]

Mannnn!!!!

i was abt to post that

 

[akpower]

relax guyz its just warm up game

 

[Rana]

shoaib malik cud have got a 150 if we had batted first!!

but wat the hell is this, afridi shud have opened!!!

 

[Uzzy]

is that his domestic form that you're quoting?

If you mean Farhat then no, i'm talking about his intl performances recently.

 

[sam]

Commies talking of Afridi!

 

[sehban]

39/2 9 overs

 

[KA$H]

if you look on statguru there isnt much difference between Butt and farhat's performance in the test or ODI arena - both have decent stats actually

 

[sam]

Cricinfo realizes:

We apologise for the problems with score updates. We are attempting to rectify.

 

[sam]

if you look on statguru there isnt much difference between Butt and farhat's performance in the test or ODI arena - both have decent stats actually

Recently, Farhat has been doing better both in tests and ODIs. Overall, they have pretty much the same stats.

 

[Rana]

pls inzi man send afridi in next!

the only reason im listening to this is because of afridi!

 

[Uzzy]

66666666

 

[Rana]

I'm talking about recent performances.

 

[HAFRIDI]

just got up...

Aey kyaa baat hai, Afridi already of to a flyer, takes the wicket of watson- most expensive wicket ; )

 

[sam]

Anybody know the exact score?

The commies mention everything but the score...

 

[ShowStopper]

Pakistan 48/2 (12.0 ov)

 

[Rana]

444444

 

[sam]

somebody injured. Hope it ain't somebody from Pak.

 

[sehban]

52/2 12.2

 

[Rana]

this is boring man, without no afridi, im going to have a shower!

 

[HAFRIDI]

dropped?

 

[HAFRIDI]

55/2 13 ov

 

[sam]

Wasn't dropped. Apparently a bump ball.

 

[sehban]

55/2 13

 

[ShowStopper]

this is boring man, without no afridi, im going to have a shower!

Shower because the match is boring.

 

[KA$H]

well if we're talkin recently it only takes 1 performance to turn things around. i still doint think there's there's a gulf between either Butt or Farhat

farhat defo appears to ride his luck more - but then u make your own luck

 

[sam]

Without no Afridi effectively means with Afridi... )

 

[sam]

Yeah it takes 1 performance to turn things around but why would you drop a player scoring consistently hoping that another will come up with that 1 performance?

Isn't it better to go on with the one scoring rather than dropping him and hoping for another to start scoring? Does no favoure to either's confidence.

 

[MecnunK]

Is it televised?

 

[sam]

59/2 in 15 overs...

 

[ShowStopper]

O well guys forget this, its Pak opening crises it will never be solved.

 

[HAFRIDI]

They should have gone with Farhat and Malik!! i hope they only did this to get Butt in form/or see if he is in form..Farhat is the man to go for with Malik!

 

[Rana]

MoYo struck in the balls!!

 

[sam]

Is it televised?

No.

Commies now talking of everything but the game that they supposed to commentate on... )

 

[KA$H]

[ShowStopper]

[HAFRIDI]

[Rana]

[Rana]

[Pathan007]

[HAFRIDI]

When he leaves, a wicket goes down, whats wrong with the dude

 

[Rana]

I think YK is already out. Moyo and Inzi batting according to Cricinfo.

The commies don't bother to say anything related to the game. )

 

[Rana]
