[pak4life]

oh no hameed and butt together watch the rate tumble

 

[Jive Jive Pakistan]

nazir is bowled

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

Hameed's Strike rate is only 67.2

in ONE DAY CRICKET

 

[Jayed]

Jayasurya isn't playing. so, no potential threat from the Lankan openers.

there is a certain man called sangakarra.
oh and jayawardene

 

[Straight Bat]

good ball to get him though, just seen him.

 

[Yasin]

Hameed off the mark with a 4

 

[Straight Bat]

there is a certain man called sangakarra.
oh and jayawardene

sanga aint playing

 

[Jayed]

good bye 400...sigh

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

444444 to Yasir!

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

Well, the run rates gone up

 

[Jayed]

44444444444444444444444444444 from hameeed

 

[12thMan]

Hameed starts with a flick to long leg for 4

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

Pakistan 49-1 in 6 overs, thats a run rate of 8.17

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

grr, the run rates dipping fast

 

[dinakar]

sanga aint playing

this is just a batting practice game for Pakistan. I lost the interest in the match as soon as I seen Jayasurya and Malinga are omitted.

 

[ali hussein]

whats da pitch like, is 350 possible ??????

 

[Straight Bat]

ali, pitch hasn't got much in it. No swing, no awkward bounce. We'll see what our boys can get out of it though under the lights

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

At the beginning of this over, our run rate was 8.17

Now its gonna be 7.

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

And its a maiden

 

[Straight Bat]

At the beginning of this over, our run rate was 8.17

Now its gonna be 7.

so, I don't mind it dropping down to 5. Look at the names we have coming in..

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

Who's up for pushing Freedi up the order?

 

[Jive Jive Pakistan]

lack of rotating the strike

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

Yousuf and Malik aren't big hitters.... Just Kami, Afridi, and Razzaq

 

[P4K1 #1]

pitch is a beuty!! 300+ shud be pakistan target

 

[INZItheman]

*** is wrong with cricinfo. a minute ago it said razzaq was batting at 3 and now it has asif and gul stated to come in at 4 and 5 respectively.

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

holly crap what a shot by Hameed!

 

[ali hussein]

Who's up for pushing Freedi up the order?

yeh he shud come in next. make use of the powerplays

 

[Straight Bat]

Yousuf and Malik aren't big hitters.... Just Kami, Afridi, and Razzaq

just?!? relax, we can post up a big total and even if its around 250 - 275, we have the firepower to put up a fight.

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

What a great quality stroke through the offside

Hameeds on a mission to bring his career S/R to 90!

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

40 runs out of our 53 have come out of fours

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

Hameed works that to fine leg for 2

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

Fernando 3.5-0-30-1 )

 

[ali hussein]

i seem to be getting faster updates here than cricinfo. nice one boys

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

Straight down the ground by Hameed, FOUR!!!

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

what the ****?!

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

That had to be four the moment he hit it, wth happened

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

Salman drives, gets 444444

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

Good timing by Salman, is he on a mission too?

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

And four more for Salman!!!

 

[Yasin]

Consecutive 4s again by BUTT

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

This time he plays it through backward point, opening the face of the bat!

 

[the true passionist]

I see some of you are here to watch 20/20 cricket than a 50 over ODI.

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

Butt on 29 off 29 balls

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

I see some of you are here to watch 20/20 cricket than a 50 over ODI.

And who are you referring to?

 

[Gunner786]

this is the way he should play

attacking play suits him

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

And another good looking shot, but goes straight to the fielder in the covers

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

Hameeds also playing brilliantly, I expect both of these players to get 50s

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

Wide ball!

 

[DM]

Back, feeling lighter hehehe. Good strike rates, hope they continue!

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

9 runs off this over so far, so good stuff by Salman

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

Salman hits the ball down the ground for four!!!

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

Pakistan 70-1, 13 runs off the over

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

Run rate is now 7.78

 

[12thMan]

13 runs off the over
Pak 70-1 after 9 overs

 

[ali hussein]

pakistan should have tried either najaf or fawad in this game given SL dropped malinga and jayasuriya

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

I don't think we should get carried away with how pakistan have been playing so far, conditions are harsh on the fielding team and the pitch is a flatty. We'll find out how good our batsmen are when the ball starts to offer somethink for the bowlers.

oi chup ho

we know how good (and poor) our batsmen are on moving pitches, lets enjoy our moment when we can on the flat pitches

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

Maharoof is on

 

[DM]

Magic!!!

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

Noball by Maharoof!

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

4 for Hameed, clipped through the legside!

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

brilliant timing by Hameed!

 

[the true passionist]

And who are you referring to?

you are definitely part of the group.

 

[ali hussein]

oi chup ho

we know how good (and poor) our batsmen are on moving pitches, lets enjoy our moment when we can on the flat pitches

shaabash shaabaash ,,, yeh cheezz ,,, lets enjoy the pak batting

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

Grr, Salman should have run

 

[JammydodgA]

I don't think we should get carried away with how pakistan have been playing so far, conditions are harsh on the fielding team and the pitch is a flatty. We'll find out how good our batsmen are when the ball starts to offer somethink for the bowlers.

After everything that's gone on, I'm just grateful we are doing this well, even if the pitch is helping

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

you are definitely part of the group.

Lets get the record straight, I enjoy all forms of good cricket.

If we were playing a Five5, I'd be passionate in that game as well, (provided Pakistan were playing)

The same goes for 3 week test matches

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

Hameed gets a single to 3rd man

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

Pakistan 76-1 in 10 overs, will the 2nd powerplay be taken?

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

2nd powerplay taken

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

Fernando comes back on

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

man, i just had a heart attack

i saw the stumps down, and I fell out of the sofa

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

What a shot by Hameed, they will get maybe 4 or 3

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

Aww, think its just gonna be 3

no, thats 4 I think...

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

And its given as 3

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

The walkie talkies broke

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

Pakistan haven't scored a single run through mid on

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

44444444

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

Salman flicks the ball past fine leg, whose in the circle!

 

[JammydodgA]

Crazy dholi, winning this series wil get the teams confidence up, that can't be a bad thing.

 

[TheNewLegacy-ShoaibMalik]

Salman flicks it away again, thats cut off, but Salman gets 2
