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

[FAM]

50 for Younis! Well played!

 

[the true passionist]

a good meaningful 50...

 

[Raz]

102 off 24 overs needed

 

[Raz]

South Africans look bored in the field, like as if they have given up

 

[NeVerMind]

Saffers now trying everything by putting a fielder in front of the sight screen...

 

[Pathan007]

pollock infront of sight screen. move, u punk

 

[Caved12]

i'll tell her .

well, if you are set to break my relationship, then what can I do... I guess I will take the easy way out, time to have a new girlfriend neways

 

[12thMan]

Pollock waving back standing in front of screen

 

[Raz]

Delay here, South Africa wanting to place a fielder in right behind the bowler, in front of the sightscreen

 

[Oxy]

I would object to having Pollock field right in front of me...

 

[filosofee]

Chaps, those who are lucky enough to be watching, the cricket I mean, (as opposed to letching over the girlies in the crowd!!), our attack seemed excellent in this match only three SA batsmen (Gibbs, Kallis and Duminy) got 'away', was the fielding good too?

Would love it if Khan and Yousuf got us home by 8 wickets.

Come on Pakistan!!!

 

[Sheikh]

Under a 100 needed now.

 

[Pathan007]

this is pathetic move from smith.

 

[Caved12]

any doubts, will pakistan make it interesting from here on?

Kallis was dropped on 2 by Chacha AKmal.

 

[FAM]

This is something very interesting. Something that I do not remember seeing ever in the past. The long off fielder has been stationed so fine by Smith that he is in front of the sight screen. There is a huge discussion between the umpires and the skipper Smith. What do you call that position??? Straight hit??? May be!!! The umpires have decided to move on with the game now...

[saffer]

south africa didnt get enough runs on a flat wicket...negative play and batting ....anyway....well played pakistan .

 

[Pathan007]

well, if you are set to break my relationship, then what can I do... I guess I will take the easy way out, time to have a new girlfriend neways

time for yana.

 

[Oxy]

Chaps, those who are lucky enough to be watching, the cricket I mean, (as opposed to letching over the girlies in the crowd!!),

Its easily done....no Ramadhan restrictions on us now

 

[Ahmad]

135/2 after 27 overs

 

[filosofee]

Is Gadaffi a 'lucky' ground for Pakistan? Do we win more matches in Lahore than at any other Pakster ground?

 

[Caved12]

this is pathetic move from smith.

I have said it before and will say it again, Smith is an idiot, does not know a thing about captaincy.

 

[the true passionist]

This is strange...just seems cheap tactics by Smith to distract the batsmen.

 

[Raz]

99 needed from 23 overs

 

[Ahmad]

99 needed off 23 overs... polly's back on..

 

[filosofee]

Kallis was dropped on 2 by Chacha AKmal.

Thank you, Pathan Bond

 

[WasimG]

Delay here, South Africa wanting to place a fielder in right behind the bowler, in front of the sightscreen

I'm pretty sure you cant do that as the batsman wont be able to see the fielder.

 

[Caved12]

time for yana.

I am itching to see her

 

[Raz]

This is strange...just seems cheap tactics by Smith to distract the batsmen.

Definately there is nothing to gain with having that fielder there

 

[aussiecricketer]

Okay guys, hows my prediction looking now?

Possible Afridi will finish the game off aswell.

 

[filosofee]

Its easily done....no Ramadhan restrictions on us now

What about answering my cricket-related questions, Oxy saab?

 

[Pathan007]

Caved, where do u live? Uk or US?

 

[Hash]

I'd love it if Younus batted the innings here and got a match winning hundred.

 

[Hash]

'thats a good tactics to play with batsmans mind'- Waqar Younis

 

[Pathan007]

the clown rolls in the field.

 

[Oxy]

What about answering my cricket-related questions, Oxy saab?

I wasnt watching - just joined the action about an hour ago...so I can only authoratively comment on the 'kuri-related' issues of the day...

 

[Ahmad]

96 from 22

 

[Hash]

there is nothing better than a Lahori kuri

 

[12thMan]

Pak 138-2 after 28 overs - need 96 to win

 

[Hash]

oh great

zaheer abbas comes into the attack

[filosofee]

Forget it, Balochans are better

 

[Pathan007]

Lotte Super Skills seems to be an exciting program. has any1 watched it?

 

[Sheikh]

south africa didnt get enough runs on a flat wicket...negative play and batting ....anyway....well played pakistan .

I don't know. Gibbs certainly didn't play negatively, neither did A.B. Kallis' innings should be questioned, as he looked really scratchy and was far too late in accelerating.

 

[Hash]

Forget it, Balochans are better

really?

hmmmmm

 

[harrybeg]

Younis and Yousof are well organised.

 

[filosofee]

96 off 22 overs with 8 men in hand - come on Pakistan!

 

[Raz]

Huge lbw appeal, not given and is poor decision, that was out

 

[Caved12]

Caved, where do u live? Uk or US?

GTA, Brampton, Ontario, Canada, how about you?

 

[Pathan007]

what is yunus up to? jumping in the crease.

 

[harrybeg]

4

 

[filosofee]

really?

hmmmmm

You didn't ask better at what !!!!

 

[Ahmad]

was that a fight brewing in the stands...?!

 

[Oxy]

Lovely shot for 4 by YK

Picked his spot to deep mid on

144-2

 

[Hash]

'he has played fast and slow'

'thats a great shot by............

144 for 2'


thanks zaheer

 

[saffer]

wow...S.A should have been given one of these lbw !!!!!!!

 

[Pathan007]

[Pathan007]

Mahima Choudry

 

[Sheikh]

Theres the 100 partnership!

Talk about seizing the moment!

 

[harrybeg]

4 again

 

[Raz]

Lofted over wide mid on for 4

 

[Oxy]

Huge lbw appeal, not given and is poor decision, that was out

That leap to the off stump put Ghauri off

 

[SUPERSAMI]

phada?

 

[Ahmad]

very nicely played to the cover boundary by yousuf... 4

 

[Hash]

4 more from Yousuf

Pakistan are RUNNING AWAY with this here.

 

[filosofee]

Huge lbw appeal, not given and is poor decision, that was out

Who was the umpire? Which batsmen? - these and more questions must be answered!

 

[Ahmad]

Both the Us are playing very wel.l....!! Abbas...!!

 

[harrybeg]

Partnership max. 104

 

[harrybeg]

Yousof on 45

 

[Caved12]

zee sports better show the match presentation today

 

[Hash]

You didn't ask better at what !!!!

I let my imagination be the judge of that

 

[Ahmad]

Bishop caught abass there...

 

[Pathan007]

"BOTH the U's r playing very well" way to go Zaheer chacha. calling Y a U.

 

[the true passionist]

both the "you's" are playing well

 

[saffer]

I dont know what S.A have to do to get a lbw today....ha ha ha....just note that in the memory bank guys vefore you cry about how umnpires cheat you .

 

[saffer]

run rate will be under 4 soon .

 

[Hash]

what is yunus up to? jumping in the crease.

he is taking the **** of their bowlers.

 

[Hash]

Younis goes

good innings Younus bhai! well played

 

[Ahmad]

[the true passionist]

and Bishop trying to save Zaheer's face says:
