[shahrukh619]

bad phone signal

 

[Ahson8]

playing 11

Mohammad Hafeez
Asad Shafiq
Younis Khan
Misbah-Ul-haq(C)
Umar Akmal
Shahid Afridi
Sarfraz Ahmed(wk)
Sohail Tanvir
Umar Gul
Saeed Ajmal
Aizaz Cheema

Toss: Dilshan has won the toss and decided to bat. Kumar Sangakkara will keep. Misbah says he would have batted first, but thinks the dew might play a role later in the day. The return of Afridi and Razzaq is a big boost, he says.

[NJamal]

Younis thinks 2 new balls will be fun, lol.

 

[IAJ]

Apart from Farhat this is a good team! Now that he is picked let's support him and Pakistan.

 

[Sherlock]

Never before have I wanted a Pakistani opener to fail big time than I do Farhat.

The teams have been confirmed by Cricinfo, shahidafridi123.

 

[Ahson8]

Farhat ahead of Shafiq =
The rest if the team is good though

 

[Ahson8]

source?

Cricinfo

 

[*sallu*]

Its fun

 

[Asif321]

shoaib malik should play as opener

 

[IAJ]

Lols even ODIS are fun for Younis. He has said it now! This series is already ours!

 

[shahidafridi123]

Its fun cricket

 

[Sherlock]

Come on Pakistan.

 

[NJamal]

Farhat, Younis & Misbah at 2,3 & 4. Middle overs will be like watching some paint dry.

 

[shahidafridi123]

thread already 2 pages, match not even started.

 

[Shayan]

Team is as expected apart from Cheema being there for Junaid.

Having Razzaq, Afridi and Sarfraz at 6, 7 and 8 isn't ideal but will have to do.

 

[shahrukh619]

no one believed me

 

[Afridi_Fan]

I would have asked Umar Akmal to keep the wickets and dropped Farhat to accomodate both Asad Shafiqe and Shoaib Malik.

 

[shahidafridi123]

Maybe Afridi or Razzaq will be promoted

 

[shahidafridi123]

I would have asked Umar Akmal to keep the wickets and dropped Farhat to accomodate both Asad Shafiqe and Shoaib Malik.

??

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

Shahrukh. so you said you dont lie. what else do you know?

 

[Sherlock]

Afridi opening would of been better. I wouldn't of included Sarfraz, instead played Akmal as keeper.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

YK said its fun before T20 WC and retired once the tournament finished from the format.

He just said ODI is fun too.

Fingers crossed.

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

Is farhat playing today?

 

[Sherlock]

Tharanga and Dilshan are possibly the best limited over openers around at the moment.

 

[shahidafridi123]

Is farhat playing today?

Yes

 

[Sherlock]

Farhat opens Muhammad.

 

[NJamal]

Big test for Cheema today. First time he is facing a strong opposition in ODIs

 

[shahrukh619]

Shahrukh. so you said you dont lie. what else do you know?

Honestly some of guys don't have a sense of humour. You guys get so serious

I was just joking, rememeber i said I'm Indian i don't lie

See i was lieing that i was indian.

Come on people.

Why so serious

Did some of you actually thougt that i got a phone call for this )

Just enjoy the game, i would provide the match results before the game finishes so be aleart

 

[Noman]

Shoaib Malik should have open the inning instead of farhat.. Umar could keep he is batting way down anyway

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

Honestly some of guys don't have a sense of humour. You guys get so serious

I was just joking, rememeber i said I'm Indian i don't lie

See i was lieing that i was indian.

Come on people.

Why so serious

Did some of you actually thougt that i got a phone call for this )

I didnt believe you earlier. but After Srilabka won the toss and you said you are an Indian so i thought you might have contacts with bookies

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Oh Bhabhi is in town.

Can Malik skip for a shopping date?

 

[Sherlock]

Maybe shahrukh's Azhar Majeed in disguise!

 

[Shayan]

I don't know why people are saying "Farhat over Shafiq". Farhat has NOT been picked over Shafiq.

As far as the management is concerned, Asad Shafiq is a middle order batsman, and therefore it's really one of Younis/Umar Akmal/Afridi/Razzaq that have been picked over him.

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

Height of Depression


when you see Imran Farhat's name in the Squad

 

[shahrukh619]

Maybe shahrukh's Azhar Majeed in disguise!

yeah, i also don't like afridi, and i have no idea where my brother is

 

[Sherlock]

Need the openers back in the pavillion early on, especially Dilshan.

 

[shahrukh619]

btw my squad was also right, SOhail Tanvir is the 12th man

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

Match should start now.

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

btw my squad was also right, SOhail Tanvir is the 12th man

ohh please not again...

 

[shahrukh619]

[NJamal]

Players are on the park as camera is set on one & only Boom Boom.

 

[Watsupdoc]

[shahrukh619]

[attock]

Salaam all, gul starts with a wide

 

[NJamal]

Big wide by Gul

 

[farsiddiqui]

well-kept by Sarfaraz. That could've been a four.

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

Starts with a wide. not a good sign

 

[shahidafridi123]

good ball

 

[Afridi_Fan]

And the 1st fielder to field the ball is Imran Farhat. Selection justified.

 

[shahrukh619]

good keeping sarfraz ahmed

 

[shahidafridi123]

[Itachi]

Just enjoy the game, i would provide the match results before the game finishes so be aleart

you know what you just said?

Indians never lie.

Pakistanis always lie.

Didn't see than coming from a pak fan but i appreciate the complement.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

One handed pick up by Farhat. Why people hate him. Jonty "Freaking" Rhodes.

 

[shahrukh619]

Oh Please keep your crap out of this thread.

[Muhammad Waleed]

2 dot balls. dont pitch on leg side

 

[shahidafridi123]

quick single

 

[Zeeraq]

Wide by Umar Gul

 

[Afridi_Fan]

And now he has a throw on the stumps. Stop criticizing Farhat.
