Ramiz praising Hafeez

 

[Kianig89]

Ramiz saying excluding Hafeez is difficult as he is a utility (bits n pieces) player

 

[Wattoo]

Ramiz saying excluding Hafeez is difficult as he is a utility (bits n pieces) player

= :ramiz

 

[Wattoo]

Hopefully S Tanvir will be replaced by Anwar.

 

[Kianig89]

= :ramiz

true

 

[Sherlock]

Anwar Ali would be smashed too. That's the issue with the lack of bowlers we have. Tanvir has to play because we don't have adequate replacements in place.

 

[taqi]

i hope we chase today and our batsmen perform well while chasing

 

[Kianig89]

pitch report

Chances of dew its dry and has cracks good pace good bounce

 

[Kianig89]

[Kianig89]

[Kianig89]

[saiyan0312]

russel arnold saying both teams would look for a minimum 250 runs.

 

[saiyan0312]

[Kianig89]

So we are batting

 

[Kianig89]

[saiyan0312]

Same team for pakistan.

 

[HASHAM2]

No change in Pakistan XI
Sohail Tanvir Get,s another go

 

[saiyan0312]

kula with his inward balls.

 

[Batman]

Good Batting first again, should aim 250+ here.

 

[Down2Earth]

We would have batted anyway

 

[Sherlock]

We don't have adequate replacement for Tanvir, as Anwar Ali's bowling is lacking the swing for his pace.

 

[saeedhk]

Thank god we are batting first, or else,the match would have been 90% lost.

 

[Batman]

Same team I guess from Pakistan side while Sri Lanka made 2 changes.

 

[Batman]

Pakistan are going in with the same XI that won the first match.

That's mean Harris will miss out again.

 

[JilaWatan]

That's mean Harris will miss out again.

the way i see it harris only gets a game in a dead rubber

 

[Wattoo]

Same XI

 

[Wattoo]

Hopefully pak will win this match and will create pressure on SL.

 

[Batman]

300 is must here for Pakistan due to dew factor.

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Hopefully pak will win this match and will create pressure on SL.

Pakistan is batting first so match is already won

Expect Junaid to turn up for this match

 

[Batman]

More runs on the board and you will have more chances of winning.

 

[Kianig89]

[Mr Consistent]

[Wattoo]

Pakistan is batting first so match is already won

Expect Junaid to turn up for this match

hmmm, ap k mun mein ghee and sugar ki mills.

 

[Batman]

Kukri has to improve his game big time here.

 

[mosh101]

Game on !

 

[Sherlock]

All our bowlers have to improve because they were poor.

 

[Ims1]

[London_Lahori]

Come on boys lets get a good score here, we will need it with the due later on.

That's some preparation.

 

[Kianig89]

[imshally81]

Delay due to sight screen adjustment...
What a Unprofessional-ism....

 

[mosh101]

Poorly organized start ! Shouldve fixed that sight screen before the match !

 

[ChaudrySaab]

Poor preparation, sightscreen should have been fixed!

 

[Batman]

Poor stuff already

 

[saiyan0312]

I think lankans have forgotten that we are horrible chasers.. South africa knew it very well.

 

[Batman]

I think lankans have forgotten that we are horrible chasers.. South africa knew it very well.

That's good thing for us, Keep the secret to SA atleast and the series will be ours before they know

 

[EarthBoltX]

I think lankans have forgotten that we are horrible chasers.. South africa knew it very well.

Maybe they think we're not as bad at it as they are good.

 

[Bullet Drive]

How long?

 

[Red Devil]

[Osman]

[iRfaN_LA]

[Bullet Drive]

Another 15 minute delay minimum

 

[WNC]

What happened? A Shaikh didn't appear on time again?

 

[saiyan0312]

That's good thing for us, Keep the secret to SA atleast and the series will be ours before they know

yep this might help us win this.

Maybe they think we're not as bad at it as they are good.

Terrible thinking. shows they didnt do their homework on us. have they forgotten the 7 runs 40 ball match.

This is really ridiculous. Match delayed like this.

 

[mosh101]

Have the organizers been sleeping?

 

[imshally81]
