Pakistan vs South Africa | Lahore| 5th ODI | 29/10/07 |

[FAM]

Rao strikes again!

 

[Sheikh]

Another wicket for Rao. 230 perhaps?

 

[Pathan007]

pr nooooooooot?

 

[Hash]

Rao is an absolute gem

 

[Plasma]

polka outtttttttt

 

[iafzal]

Rao has been bowling very well and his seam position has been excellent much like Asif last year.

 

[SulmanPK]

What a come back. If they manages to keep them below 240, that will be a great effort.

 

[Pathan007]

Rao amongst the wkts once again.

 

[Sheikh]

Its amazing how Rao's average keeps falling. Its gone down to 31 from about 50 a year or so ago.

 

[Hash]

he has 9 balls to get 2 more wickets and his first 5fer.......will be thoroughly deserved

 

[saffer]

the way he looked back he obviously stood on the rope...

cheat !!!

 

[SUPERSAMI]

Glen McRAo

 

[Plasma]

4 overs left, can we keep them under 220??

 

[UJ]

Great comeback by Pakistan!!

 

[pak4life]

has malik got his calculations wrong shoaib will be one over short

 

[Hash]

I'll be Mortal comes in to bat

 

[darkmoon459]

Rao is been a gem for us ,he should be rewarded and should play all 5 ODI's against India.

 

[Hash]

has malik got his calculations wrong shoaib will be one over short

no his calculations are fine. He doesn't think Shoaib is fit enough yet (to bowl 4 overs in a row)

 

[waqar_ahmad]

220 is still a good total, we need to keep them to 220 somehow

 

[Sheikh]

the way he looked back he obviously stood on the rope...

cheat !!!

That evidence wouldn't stand in a court of law!

 

[pak4life]

no his calculations are fine. He doesn't think Shoaib is fit enough yet (to bowl 4 overs in a row)

just hope tanvir dosnt bowl the last over 10-15 extra runs at this stage could be the difference

 

[iafzal]

Akhter is trying too hard to york and they are going full toss, a little out of practice

 

[12thMan]

That evidence wouldn't stand in a court of law!

the murgha will judge that

 

[Sheikh]

These dot balls are like gold!

 

[SUPERSAMI]

144.5kph

 

[waqar_ahmad]

the way he looked back he obviously stood on the rope...

cheat !!!

Iftikhar Anjum to Pollock, OUT, caught in the deep! Pollock steps down the track and lofts the ball down to long on where Tanvir settles under the catch on the boundary's edge, he takes the catch cleanly but his back foot is dangerously close to the rope, the umpire says it's a clean catch but eventually calls for the third umpire who also concurs, Pollock has to go but that was extremely close

stop crying like ur captain

 

[Sheikh]

just hope tanvir dosnt bowl the last over 10-15 extra runs at this stage could be the difference

It's either him or Malik. I'd go with Tanvir, around the wicket, slower balls, yorkers, etc..

 

[Hash]

waqar- he was just joshing around yaar

 

[saffer]

you could even see the boundary sponge this indenting...just bad sportsmanship to claim that as a catch....anyway....on with the game.

 

[iafzal]

Critical over from Rao coming up

 

[Hash]

come on Rao

2 wickets in your last over. Finish with a 5fer

 

[iafzal]

you could even see the boundary sponge this indenting...just bad sportsmanship to claim that as a catch....anyway....on with the game.

where did you see that and 3rd umpire did not

 

[SUPERSAMI]

146.6k, finally over 90mph

 

[Plasma]

six....

 

[Hash]

kallis goes ballistic

 

[12thMan]

chakkka by Kallis over the bowlers head

 

[Sheikh]

10 off 2 balls and 240 is very much on again. Can't believe Kallis' luck. Ridiculous. We won't have even half the luck coombined as he has had personally.

 

[waqar_ahmad]

wel, there goes the 220 target. damn it!!

 

[darkmoon459]

so who is gonna bowl the last over ,

 

[iafzal]

12 runs off 3 balls, Rao's average is crap now

 

[Hash]

classic Rao bad luck...inside edge for 4

 

[SulmanPK]

come on Rao

2 wickets in your last over. Finish with a 5fer

Phenti shuru.

 

[darkmoon459]

4 and then a 6 ,kallis is turning it on.

 

[waqar_ahmad]

yar, he was dropped by kami, dont call that luck. That was kami's incompetence.

 

[Pathan007]

kami fucker u c this. kallis has got the game.

 

[iafzal]

2 overs and 24 to be made to get to 250, I would be happy if we can hold them to 240

 

[waqar_ahmad]

A very good score by SA already

 

[Pathan007]

dropped on 2.

 

[NeVerMind]

12 runs off 3 balls, Rao's average is crap now

what? 3 wickets at 4.5 is crap now? Give respect where respect is due...Rao is our leading wicket taker!

 

[Sheikh]

kami fucker u c this. kallis has got the game.

Watch your language boy. Kids shouldn't talk like that.

 

[darkmoon459]

14 runs of Rao last over ,yet still a good spell .

 

[Hash]

A very good score by SA already

apparantly the pitch isn't quite as bad as it was predicted to be

 

[WasimG]

who's gonna bowl the last over? Malik? Was this planned or he just miscalculated?

 

[Sheikh]

12 runs off 3 balls, Rao's average is crap now

Yup. We should drop him for the next game. In fact leave him out of the squad altogether.

 

[NeVerMind]

Kallis gone and what a wonderful catch from captain sahiB!

 

[Plasma]

great catch by malik, kallis gone

 

[SulmanPK]

kami fucker u c this. kallis has got the game.

Be positive Dear. Jo hona tha hou gaya. He is still to bat. Hopefully he will level it by his batting.

 

[12thMan]

lovely catch by Malik. Kallis out off Akhtar

 

[iafzal]

What a catch by Malik almost hurt himself, hope his knee is ok, don't want to damage any there

 

[Hash]

Kamran only cost us 84 runs

Now he has to score 100+ to make amends

 

[inzibhai]

great catch....Kami learn something ...

 

[Pathan007]

84runs. that's what Kami should score. he has cost us 84runs.

 

[inzibhai]

ok guys this is a gem from Waq....


he is asking for SA batsmen to rotate the strike in the 49th over of the innings wiht 4 wickets to go......great wicky bhai....

 

[SUPERSAMI]

great bowling, great fielding

 

[Hash]

now Shoaib has three balls to get 2 wickets and a 5fer

 

[inzibhai]

Bowled.....4 for shobby

 

[NeVerMind]

Akhtar on fire! Morkel bowled!

 

[iafzal]

what? 3 wickets at 4.5 is crap now? Give respect where respect is due...Rao is our leading wicket taker!

Dude read what I said, I never said anything about his wkts just his average became crap, he had a great average of 3.1rpo before the last over and ended up with 4.5

 

[Plasma]

bowled!! 4th for the pindi expressssssssssssssssssssssss

 

[inzibhai]

hahah and waqar just called him young man...wah

 

[12thMan]

Morkel out bowled Akhtar

 

[SUPERSAMI]

one more, get a fifer!

 

[NeVerMind]

The irony is that it has been Akhtar's slower ball that has done the damage!

 

[NeVerMind]

Dude read what I said, I never said anything about his wkts just his average is crap, he had a great average of 3.3 before the last over and ended up with 4.5

Yet you used the word 'Crap' which is a bit harsh when it's only 4.5...

 

[Plasma]

aawwwwwwwwww

 

[inzibhai]

great come back......India a worried nation...gangu a worreid man....RD a happy man....

 

[saffer]

The irony is that it has been Akhtar's slower ball that has done the damage!



Thats because it's hard to pick it out.... are his balls are pretty slow .

 

[Caved12]

who? yana?

Yeah Right, I would be lucky to even call her in my dreams, it was hot line brampton,lol

 

[iafzal]

Yet you used the word 'Crap' which is a bit harsh when it's only 4.5...

Crap maybe harsh but he had such a good average of 3.1 and that is great for a pace bowler.

 

[Caved12]

Akhtar Is The Man.
