Pakistan vs South Africa | 3rd ODI | Dubai | 02-Nov-2010 | Pak Innings

[Cricfan_90]

game is getting interesting

 

[Looney]

well you cant blame afridi for playing rash shot there

he was trying to go for a cut, didnt work out

Again if we had kept the scoreboard ticking from the beginning then there weould have been no need for this

This tuk tuk is suicidal

 

[Radiance Of Australis]

Fawad in. Back to the Test match, then?

Better than half the players you rate.Atleast he scores.

 

[ZAK]

Wide

 

[Sledger]

Good shot by 2 by Alam.

 

[Schickelgruber]

game Set match Im out

 

[Civil]

This is the true test for Fadi,

I am his fan,

but none of teh usual scenarios apply to cover his behind.

i.e. he came in too late
he came in to early
he can't hit out.

he's got razzaq and shafiq with him, 20 overs and 120 odd runs.

LETS DO THIS!

 

[WNC]

Was that a rash stroke?

I only saw the commentary on cricinfo, doesn't give enough info

Went for the cut shot, the ball came back off the seam. An edge and pouched by AB.

 

[saj001]

i though fadi egded it

 

[haizen]

thought that was out for a sec

 

[Sledger]

I thought he edged that then.

 

[NJamal]

111/4 after 30 overs

 

[ZAK]

2 to Fawad.

 

[iZeeshan]

Hmm 20 overs to go. 118 to win

 

[oracleg]

Amla is just so zen with everything he does

 

[iRfaN_LA]

true test of Fawad's character here.

 

[Sledger]

Great Ramiz in the com box.

SA hattrick coming up.

 

[haizen]

rambo raja

Jerry springer haha

 

[ZAK]

111/4 after 30 overs.

 

[Radiance Of Australis]

Come on Alam...come on.Showed what you are yesterday..do it again

 

[mhraja]

Fawad Alam's Big Test:

Is he a match winner? We will get to know today? If he sees Pakistan through that I won't be criticizing him for few months to come

 

[Dare2Dream]

Was that a rash stroke?

I only saw the commentary on cricinfo, doesn't give enough info

It was a slash/cut on a widish short ball, not as rash as the usual Afridi shot but not too much better

 

[ads101]

we need umar akmal out there

 

[iZeeshan]

No more wickets for 10 overs, but they have to get 50 in the next 10.

 

[ZAK]

1 to Shafiq.

 

[DW44]

Did Ramiz just call someone Jerry Springer?

 

[Sledger]

Fawad took a single against the spin!

 

[haizen]

bay yaar

 

[Radiance Of Australis]

Why does Botha have sucha sulky and evil expression all the time?

 

[sanakazmi]

uh-oh. ramiz is back.

 

[saj001]

need these two to bat for 10-13 overs

 

[Cricfan_90]

Amla is just so zen with everything he does

I heard he is into yoga

 

[Sledger]

Pakistan should win this game if they bat the 50 overs. They need to use their heads and think that way.

 

[ZAK]

1 to Fawad.

 

[salman24]

Jerry Springer?

 

[oracleg]

Fawad took a single against the spin!

he's a decent player of spin...just out of form of late

 

[NJamal]

113/4 after 31 overs

 

[ZAK]

113/4 after 31 overs.

 

[AsadMalik]

I so wish I could give Afridi a prep talk before every one of his innings... he needs it!!

 

[Krishnan]

Amla is just so zen with everything he does

We will see next 5 yrs.No credit taken away for his brilliant performance in the last 2 years.But they said the same about michael hussey initially.

 

[Radiance Of Australis]

Duminy resembles Salman Butt..especially with the helmet

 

[theglitterconspiracy]

I so wish I could give Afridi a prep talk before every one of his innings... he needs it!!

lol he wouldnt listen

 

[prakash@raina fan]

req runrate 6.10.. not looking good

 

[mhraja]

Required RunRate: 6.10

This is getting scary

 

[ZAK]

1 to Alam.

 

[WithLoveFromCanada]

they are saving morne's over for razzaq....these two should attack duminy

 

[Sledger]

Get the runs required down to under 100 then it boosts you mentally. All that is needed then is a straight partnership.

 

[ZAK]

1 more to Shafiq.

 

[haizen]

fawad making his place for tests

 

[ahmed16]

I so wish I could give Afridi a prep talk before every one of his innings... he needs it!!

"prep talk"?, need something a bit more stronger for the pathan, more like a lecture!

 

[IAJ]

Everyone is relaxed as they think Abdul Razaq will see us home again. What idiotic shot by Afridi. He is an idiot!

 

[TigerJat]

back to more tuk tuk

at least asad should keep the score moving, we can;t get behind the score too much, can't expect the same heroics from AR everytime

 

[sanakazmi]

Better than half the players you rate.Atleast he scores.

I'm actually a huge Fawad fan, but thanks for the judgmental comment.

 

[Radiance Of Australis]

Fawad and Asad...two Karachiites.
Show em what Karachiites are like

 

[Sledger]

Stupid shot, no need for it. Lack of experience.

 

[Maula Jutt]

Req RR has climbed to over 6.

 

[mhraja]

Shafiq has to show he is Pakistan's future

 

[ZAK]

1 more to Alam.

 

[WNC]

Fawad and Asad...two Karachiites.
Show em what Karachiites are like

Don't say that, if they fail, we won't hear the end of it....

 

[theglitterconspiracy]

Req RR has climbed to over 6.

dont say that

 

[sanakazmi]

I so wish I could give Afridi a prep talk before every one of his innings... he needs it!!

You could make it before each ball and it still might not be soon enough!

 

[Looney]

Fawad and Asad...two Karachiites.
Show em what Karachiites are like

( )

 

[Cricfan_90]

Everyone is relaxed as they think Abdul Razaq will see us home again. What idiotic shot by Afridi. He is an idiot!

U didnt say that when he hit that six

 

[ZAK]

116/4 after 32 overs.

 

[theglitterconspiracy]

game is getting interesting

its getting scary

 

[TigerJat]

teh RRR will climb quickly now,

 

[mhraja]

Frontfoot and WHAT?

 

[IAJ]

Fawad and Asad...two Karachiites.
Show em what Karachiites are like

I am looking forward to see that

 

[Looney]

Two future

 

[Sledger]

Good run.

 

[sanakazmi]

Boys running well!

 

[ZAK]

2 to Fawad.

 

[mhraja]

Runrate already six and a half :S

 

[ahmed16]

Better than Fawad who's looking at his feet while sweeping from 3 feet ahead of him

)

 

[saj001]

If we bat 50 overs, we win this.

 

[Sledger]

This is 2010. 6 runs an over is a walk in the park with a PP to come.

 

[Looney]

ASad Shafiq has cramps now . He is not even married yet !

 

[NJamal]

Now shafiq is struggling with fitness

 

[IAJ]

U didnt say that when he hit that six

I wasn't commentatin then! The thing is that Botha removed Duminy out the attack and brought in Morkel just to get Afridi's wicket and he got him. That is what you call a smart thinking captain!

 

[sanakazmi]

Oops, maybe they ran that one a bit too hard.
