Pakistan vs South Africa | Lahore | 2nd ODI | 20/10/07 | SA Innings

[inzibhai]

hahah can't believe these stupid commes are talking about smith batting form....didn't he score like 80+ runs last match?

 

[harrybeg]

wide ball , good take by kamran (wow did I say good take by kamran )

 

[Oxy]

High bouncer - ove rthe head & wide.

Just need to be a bit more discipline Gul.

Good stuff though.

 

[harrybeg]

superb fielding , great shot too no run good cricket all around

 

[Shahid A]

starts off with a wide

i think this is there plan to ball a no-all or wide then get them out few balls after

i knew that was there plan

 

[Sparhawk]

Devilliers looks dangerous.. get him out quick.

 

[Shahid A]

wide!

i think a wicket is coming

 

[harrybeg]

last ball : left well bolwed end of 3rd over 11-2

tanvir coming up to ball .

 

[Shahid A]

maybe not

but in the first 2 overs it worked starting with a wide or no-ball then getting them a few balls later

 

[harrybeg]

SA is deep preasure

 

[inzibhai]

what was that MOYO doing?

he can't field...drop him from the team....he almost gave that one run there.

 

[harrybeg]

wide ball ! Too many extras

 

[Sparhawk]

i knew that was there plan

Talking to yourself?

 

[Oxy]

Extras could harm us in the long run...no excuse for it really

 

[harrybeg]

EX : W 3 , N 2 total extras 5

 

[iafzal]

out of 12 runs 5 are extras ... kind of sad

 

[harrybeg]

Poor delivery by tanvir tucked away for a 4 * first 4 for the SA*

 

[harrybeg]

17-2

 

[harrybeg]

better bowling by tanvir just keep it there if you can hear me


over finished Gul coming up .

 

[harrybeg]

SA just getting back in the match.

 

[harrybeg]

20-2

 

[harrybeg]

Rq 5.39

 

[harrybeg]

3 0 0 0 so far

 

[Sparhawk]

Its very important to keep the runs down, as waqar is pointing out. Even if no more wickets fall to the opening bowlers, afridi can take it from there.

 

[harrybeg]

4

 

[harrybeg]

our bowlers r doing a great job it's just the extras , hope the spinners could do some magical stuff

 

[harrybeg]

after 5 overs pak were 11-2 Sa are 24-2

and pak gave 5 extras

 

[aussie-pak]

what a shot from ABD

 

[harrybeg]

powerplay 1 still on

 

[aussie-pak]

South Africa RR 4.68
Last 5 ovs 23/2 RR 4.60
Required RR 5.39
Pakistan RR 5.30

 

[Sparhawk]

4 off the last ball.. No need to be bowling full at all on this track.

 

[Saj]

Tanvir is a little raw, but he's certainly a decent find for Pakistan. Has a lot to learn but a decent prospect no doubt.

 

[harrybeg]

no run

 

[aussie-pak]

AB and smith together is very dangerous. pak need to get another breakthrough

 

[harrybeg]

one run from the over only . Good stuff

 

[iafzal]

for a change only 1 run off the 6th over.

 

[harrybeg]

crowd gathering up.

"there was a long converstation between umar gul and the umpires for some reason"

 

[harrybeg]

good running by the saffies.

 

[harrybeg]

fantastic bowling by Gul really impressed!

 

[harrybeg]

good fielding by Malik

 

[harrybeg]

tried to give a yorker


too many extras from pakistan bowlers!

 

[harrybeg]

doulbe run taken

 

[harrybeg]

4

 

[12thMan]

chokkkaaaa by ABCDE

 

[shabbu1]

too many extras being given here...

 

[harrybeg]

35-2

 

[harrybeg]

nicely fielded by nazir !

 

[harrybeg]

4 pakistan going a bit low here ...

 

[Saj]

Our bowlers making the rather average De Villiers look a world beater here.

 

[harrybeg]

last over : 7 runs


42-2

 

[Saj]

Lahore's finest on view today

 

[Saj]

A crucial partnership this one. Needs breaking asap.

 

[aussie-pak]

Our bowlers making the rather average De Villiers look a world beater here.

AB is a good batsmen. he is above "rather average"

 

[aussie-pak]

who is captain on the field?

 

[Saj]

Malik is injured. Possibly a hamstring. He's stretching his leg - not looking good.

 

[Saj]

Tanvir bowling a bit too short here.

Malik adjusting the field - good captaincy. Tanvir coming around the wicket now

 

[Oxy]

51-2 off 10 overs

 

[Oxy]

RAW Iftikhar on as 1st change.

 

[saffer]

Our bowlers making the rather average De Villiers look a world beater here.

Are you kidding ? Average ? He's a world beater waiting to happen ....awesome skill .

 

[Oxy]

Pathetic drop catch by Umar Gul....DEAR GOD!

 

[Saj]

oh dear ! Gul drops a sitter.

I dont understand why he was fielding at cover ?

 

[12thMan]

who is captain on the field?

Younis Khan won the musical chairs

 

[the true passionist]

I wonder whether Ian would have ever thought smacking Zaheer anytime during this series!

 

[Saj]

who is captain on the field?

Younis Khan has taken over the captaincy.

 

[Oxy]

Great comeback from RAW - but disappointing. Not sure why Gul is at cover though...

 

[the true passionist]

Is smith the lucky one today?

 

[saffer]

Greame Smith has had two big chances now.....might be his day to get a big score .

 

[Oxy]

Another No ball - another FREE HIT.

 

[TaZ]

any links

 

[the true passionist]

Lahore's finest on view today

I am really missing LHR today!

 

[12thMan]

Tanvir is bowling out side the crease. Too wide I thinks

 

[xbox]

Even in last game Umar was fielding at point and missed the easisest runout of Gibbs and he endup scoring 100. He is a fast bowler and he suppose to be fielding at fineleg,thirdman,midon or midoff.

 

[Oxy]

Rehman put's another catch down - to his stronger left hand.

 

[Saj]

Another dropped catch. That should have been taken. ABD survives this time.

 

[12thMan]

another chance missed. this one was by Rehman at midwicket. ABCDE survives

 

[thurkeebaba]

it was his left hand; but actually it was his right hand because he is a left hander !!!

CLASSIC !!!

he's taking the pishaap.

 

[the true passionist]

I do not know why Pakistan is losing focus here!

 

[KaSaNoVa_G]

Getting wicket on a no ball.. droppping catches .. openers doing crap.. on a real note we dont deserve to win ..

Our fielding has been nothing but crap..

 

[12thMan]

That was his right had but that was left hand but it is the right hand as he is a left hander - Zaheer

 

[xbox]

Another dropped catch
