Pakistan vs South Africa | Lahore | 1st ODI (updates)

[FAM]

Chooka!

 

[salman24]

Afridi getting oing
Yes!!!!!!!!1111

 

[Plasma]

13 off the over already can tanvir hit a few?

 

[Amjid Javed]

Afridi batting at 8 is way to low and kami should be at the top of the order!

stupid stuff from pakistan as per usual!

 

[junaid78]

yup dont forget he gets caught lots more then he hits 108's hey

 

[FAM]

Tanvir's off the mark.

 

[xbox]

SOhail Tanvir can be our Irfan patha (as far as batting goes)

 

[pak4life]

go afridi you love to bat when the match is almost dead and buried

 

[salman24]

Sohail Tanvir has a chance to show his batting talent today
If he stays with Afridi and Afridi continues playing like he is
We still have a chance

 

[SameerM]

Pakistan require another 107 runs with 3 wickets and 10.5 overs remaining

Only possible if Afridi hits ground strokes!!

wow, and i thought i was an optimist

 

[filosofee]

Pak's bowling figures appear rubbish, two century makers from the Saffies!!!

189 for 7 (following on cricinfo).

 

[salman24]

wow, and i thought i was an optimist

I'm probably the biggest optimist on PP!

[FAM]

[salman24]

Tanvir in the action six!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111

 

[SameerM]

Pakistan require another 97 runs with 3 wickets and 60 balls remaining

97 off 10 overs...... finger biting stuff

 

[FAM]

Pakistan need 97 runs in 60 balls

 

[faizpak]

Last 5 ovs 46/2 RR 9.20

 

[faizpak]

97 from 60 balls. Afridi has the licence to go berserk and he is.

 

[SameerM]

i hope Afridi DOESNT go bezerk!!

he can go mildly wild aslong as he gets 4's ... dont go for 6's

 

[FAM]

200 up for Pak.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Both Sohail and afridi can hit a cricket ball... but both have to bat to the end!

 

[faizpak]

40.5 Langeveldt to Sohail Tanvir, FOUR, top edged over Boucher. Short in length, around off stump and Sohail goes for a pull and luckily, for him, edges it over the 'keeper.

 

[FAM]

4 by Tanvir.

 

[SameerM]

top edged over Boucher. Short in length, around off stump and Sohail goes for a pull and luckily, for him, edges it over the 'keeper.

looks like Sohail is going more bezerk than Afridi!!!

 

[down4whatever]

Anjum can bat a bit as well.

 

[KA$H]

impossible for pak to win this - but i'm enjoying the chase!

 

[Amjid Javed]

Pak 206/7 after 41 overs..

 

[xbox]

one good over of 20 some runs would be great here

 

[Plasma]

we need a big over, around 20 - 24 runs

 

[faizpak]

Sohail Tanvir SR 172.72
Shahid Afridi SR 173.33

 

[Mercenary]

Tanvir protecting Afridi from the strike!

[sehsan]

[Isolation]

Weee Foounnndd Annoother Saaeeddd Anwwaarr Whaaatt A Shott!!

Mubaraka!!!

 

[SameerM]

That's a fabulous shot. Fullish and on the legs and Sohail swung it ala Anwar over deep square leg. Lovely wristy stroke.

MR Saeed Anwar mentioned here!! is Sohail a dark horse??????????

 

[Mercenary]

Tanvir just hit a replica of his first six in the T20 final

 

[SameerM]

Arslan Hamid : "Sohail Tanvir...don't underestimate this lad. I've watched him play at Rawalpindi, and this guy deals in sixes only."

this is good news !!!

 

[faizpak]

Arslan Hamid : "Sohail Tanvir...don't underestimate this lad. I've watched him play at Rawalpindi, and this guy deals in sixes only."

 

[Isolation]

Abdul Razaq who??

 

[SameerM]

Razzaq shmazzzzaq

 

[down4whatever]

3 straight dot balls. Gotta go for it. Nothing to lose.

 

[Gunner786]

tanvir keeps the strike

looks like we hav a new boom boom here

goodbye afridi and razzaq

 

[Isolation]

Kallis to Sohail Tanvir, no run, Yet another slower one, full and in the zone outside off, Sohail can't connect with his swing across the line. Afridi goes over for a chat

)

That made me laugh

 

[pak4life]

tanvir to open!!

 

[Mercenary]

Tanvir takes a single off the last ball of the third over in a row to protect Afridi from himself

 

[sehsan]

Tanvir protecting Afridi from the strike!

and he did it again...aur 9 run behi bana liye
lol

 

[SameerM]

full and in the zone outside off, Sohail can't connect with his swing across the line. Afridi goes over for a chat.

Afridi: calm down son, why u slashing like ur some kinda beast
Shoail: ok i play defensive..
nex shot six!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Mercenary]

then Tanvir gets bowled off the first ball

 

[salman24]

Abdul Razaq who??

We still need razzaq this one innings means nothing
I like this lad but razzaq is still needed
Imagine having tanvir,razzaq and afridi down the order

 

[Gunner786]

tanvir walked too far

 

[Amjid Javed]

Pak 215/7 after 42 overs

80 needed of 48 balls...

 

[faizpak]

Tanvir out

 

[12thMan]

Tanvir bowled by Langerveldt

 

[salman24]

[Amjid Javed]

Sohail gone, a vailiant effort!

all down to boom boom now!

 

[SameerM]

215/8

 

[FAM]

Gone...

 

[down4whatever]

Nice little cameo from Tanvir. Those 3 dot balls after the Six did him in IMO.

 

[Isolation]

from what i remember....langeveldt is a very good at death bowling....

 

[Mercenary]

Rao's got a big job ahead of him to keep Afridi safe

 

[faizpak]

Afridi & Tanvir : Partnership: 43 runs, 4.1 overs, RR: 10.32

 

[Plasma]

rao has an average of 31....??

 

[down4whatever]

Afridi must be raged. He hasnt faced the strike in a while.

 

[salman24]

I think Razzaq is still needed.....

 

[SameerM]

rao is as good as our openers !!
