Gibbs Danger Man Gone.

 

[Plasma]

[12thMan]

Anjuman strikes. Gibbs bowled
SA 87-2 after 19 overs

 

[alghazzali]

Any team slighly troubled by him bring this argument up

 

[inzibhai]

it was about time...we needed this one..

 

[saffer]

number 87 strikes for pakistan !

 

[shahzad_1]

rao got gibbs

 

[Caved12]

but the kodak man is not doing a good job.

I love you brother, keep them coming

 

[SulmanPK]

Iftikhar is superb today. Got gibbs at last.

 

[iafzal]

Middle wkt uprooted like Waqar used to get it done.
Only thing is it did not go too far just 2 feet back

 

[Imy]

kallis doing a great job for pakistan, how slow can he bat

 

[Hash]

huge wicket that

I actually think Rao is our best ODI seamer at the moment.

shabash rao

 

[SUPERSAMI]

but the kodak man is not doing a good job.

More of the sunglasses wali please

 

[slix10]

We'll his action has been controversial for a while now and he was proven as a chucker. I don't think people bringing it up is the same as whinging . Anyway....he's hardly bowling 150 anymore so lets move on .

lol what the heck? He was proven not a chucker. That is why he's still playing or he would be off.

 

[Plasma]

finally!!! someone tells him that match was at multan.... Thank you, who ever you are

 

[inzibhai]

"i must say at bahwalpure, Polly batted well at 3 and i dont understand why polly was sent at 3 in bahwalpure".Zaheer


dear oh dear.......Bechary KW ke jo bachay ball hai us ne khainch khainch kar khatam kar diye hoon ge..

 

[Hash]

oi hoi balle balle ai hai

 

[Bailan]

SA looking to score around 290,

and we'd be out of Afridi overs, well before the 40th over, when the ball will actually start to spin

 

[Plasma]

More of the sunglasses wali please

the blue one isn't bad either man...

 

[iafzal]

We'll his action has been controversial for a while now and he was proven as a chucker. I don't think people bringing it up is the same as whinging . Anyway....he's hardly bowling 150 anymore so lets move on .

You need to get your facts straight, he was proven NOT to chuck, his action looks like that to naked eye because his elbow hyper extends which is opposite of chucking actually. This does gives the perception of chucking. You can google and find alot of info when you have time.

 

[slix10]

They will slow down a little now.

 

[harrybeg]

Rao is the only guy who has impressed me the most "waqar"

 

[SUPERSAMI]

the blue one isn't bad either man...

Can't really see her face, glasses wali is confirmed

 

[inzibhai]

the greatest fieldier in pakistan history can not hit 3 stumps from 5 yards....great...

 

[harrybeg]

They will slow down a little now.

Yeah I agree ,

 

[Caved12]

Rao is giving a nightmare to tanvir and Gul, cause it would hard to drop him for any match after this kind of consistent performance

 

[Hash]

SA looking to score around 290,

and we'd be out of Afridi overs, well before the 40th over, when the ball will actually start to spin

If SA get to 290 then I'm Asiz Zardari

 

[Hash]

SA looking to score around 290,

If SA get to 290 then I'm Asif Zardari

 

[harrybeg]

4

 

[inzibhai]

44444444 .......time to change afridi ?

 

[Pathan007]

yeah baccha kamran akmal ke sar pe rakko as a trophy.

 

[Caved12]

Why is afridi doing this? I don't understand

 

[harrybeg]

If SA get to 290 then I'm Asif Zardari

Lmao

 

[Pathan007]

afridi losing the plot here

 

[harrybeg]

Why is afridi doing this? I don't understand

his c told him ?

 

[the true passionist]

Afridi needs a break.
Rehman or Tanvir should replace him.

 

[darkmoon459]

Rao is giving a nightmare to tanvir and Gul, cause it would hard to drop him for any match after this kind of consistent performance

but PCB will do it anyway ,Rao will be dropped with no explaination given.

 

[12thMan]

SA 100-2 after 22 overs

 

[iafzal]

Rao is giving a nightmare to tanvir and Gul, cause it would hard to drop him for any match after this kind of consistent performance

To me he is kind of like Rana, hard working, intelligent and takes pride in his bowling.
Not the typical Pak pacer

 

[harrybeg]

Akhtar back, crowd fired up

 

[Caved12]

akhtar is BACK.

 

[inzibhai]

shobby back into the attack....

 

[inzibhai]

start with a No Ball

 

[Pathan007]

where is ABdul Rehman? and akhtar iz baaaaaaaack

 

[harrybeg]

No ball free hit :

 

[Umta]

Drop catch of Kallis might help PAkistan. He is too slow

 

[Pathan007]

faking no balls.

 

[harrybeg]

wel bowled yorker , I think he needs to give some yorkers ... ?

 

[inzibhai]

time to throw waq out of the box and bring him back as our bowling coach..

 

[iafzal]

Akhter back to bowl and first ball is a no ball,
free hit get no run to SA

 

[Bailan]

103/2 after 22 overs, with Kallis still batting, how can you not expect SA to hit 290+?

 

[harrybeg]

Good Yorker

 

[iafzal]

Akhter tries a Yorker did not work but idea was good, bouncer to follow?

 

[Caved12]

Perfect yorker, akhtar has not missed a beat, he still has all his weapons.

 

[harrybeg]

Gd Fielding by Misbah

 

[Pathan007]

my boots, my boots, and my boots. stop it wid these boots, will ya?

 

[harrybeg]

Rehman bowling now

 

[Pathan007]

Perfect yorker, akhtar has not missed a beat, he still has all his weapons.

but bowling in high 80's. no 90+

 

[harrybeg]

stump appeal already , but not intrerested


superb start by rehamn

 

[the true passionist]

SAF are on track for 250+ unless there's a collapse.

 

[Sheikh]

Very important spell by Rehman coming up. We need to pick up A.B soon. He scores quick and can take the game away from us. If we keep picking up wickets then we can restrict them to 220-230 odd or even less.

 

[harrybeg]

catch , but lucky it was right in the middle


a wicket coming , great bowling by R

 

[Pathan007]

danm lands in no man's land

 

[harrybeg]

2 runs from it ...

 

[iafzal]

Not our day as we have already seen, Kallis sweeps and ball bloops to no mans land

 

[Pathan007]

ASKELLENT over

 

[WasimG]

Phew. Kallis almost got out. Would've been bad for Pak.

 

[Caved12]

but bowling in high 80's. no 90+

Pathan007, thats probably because of a dead pitch, after his ball lands on a pitch, the speed dies, it does not skid...

 

[the true passionist]

Rehman has had a good start here.
Pakistan need to bring in Tanvir or Malik should come into bowl from Akhtar's end.

We need to keep 3-4 overs of Akhtar for the death.

 

[Pathan007]

12th man has a job to do.

 

[UJ]

103/2 after 22 overs, with Kallis still batting, how can you not expect SA to hit 290+?

If Kallis continues batting, it might actually work against SAF

 

[harrybeg]

Rr 4.61

 

[iafzal]

Expensive over from SA, 11 off it

 

[12thMan]

11 runs off the over
SA 119-2 after 25 overs

 

[Pathan007]

pucked up over. 12runs off it. kallis starting to cut loose. akmal costing us another series. 2ina row.

 

[Caved12]

12th man has a job to do.

I was just about to say that, since yana is not coming, we need something
to keep our eyes cool.

 

[Sheikh]

Masterstroke by Malik!


Huge wicket!!
