Pakistan vs Sri Lanka 2nd ODI: (Pakistan Innings Updates)[20/5/07]

[pak4life]

perera throwing blatantly

 

[Bailan]

parera chucking like no tommarow

 

[Oxy]

ARY showing Free right NOW!

NOT IN UK though...

 

[Hari Sombar]

what cahannel is ARY ?

On sky ??


found it

 

[Bailan]

5 bucks say that he will play the murli card ...

 

[Oxy]

Does that action look a little suspect to the naked eye?

 

[161]

Afridi was sent at exactly the right time, too bad he couldn't perform.

correct in both statements -

1. afridi was sent in with plenty of time
2. afridi could not perform - as he does in the vast majority of his innings !

honestly the only thing that keeps afridi in this team is his bowling --- if that falters then he must be dropped.

 

[MIG]

Is this stadium just 'plonked' in the middle of a desert?

Pretty much - but Oxy - this is one heck of a stadium !!

 

[Bailan]

Why isn't parera being no balled?

what the umpires are afraid of Ranatunga's Thumka?

 

[Oxy]

If he is 7 overs for 53 and he chucks it, how bad will he get if its legal????

The idea is to be a world beater if you chuck!!

 

[Lightning]

ARY broadcast is all scrued up in the U.S....

 

[Oxy]

Why isn't parera being no balled?

what the umpires are afraid of Ranatunga's Thumka?

I dont think you can 'no-ball' it any more - it has to be reported to or by the Match Ref

 

[Farrukh]

No abuse though....

yea right!! cant be abuse until its proven

 

[Uzi]

Does that action look a little suspect to the naked eye?

It does to me.

 

[161]

rofl at cricinfo .. every time i refresh the pak score gets lower and lower !!

from 250 down to 234 now.

 

[Ralync]

Maiden ;(

 

[Farrukh]

time to build some momentum.. show some intent now razzi. fast bowler is on

 

[Oxy]

A run a ball gets us to 300.

So minimum 320-330 for a good total?

 

[Farrukh]

put reverse swing in the equation now. 290 good score

 

[Bailan]

A run a ball gets us to 300.

So minimum 320-330 for a good total?

unless we runout of wickets ...

 

[Hari Sombar]

I saw Afridi's dismissal right now, he is too hit and miss

 

[Bailan]

put reverse swing in the equation now. 290 good score

ooooo ... ooo ... and blatant cheating factor..

 

[Farrukh]

A run a ball gets us to 300.

So minimum 320-330 for a good total?

total will be decided next 3 overs. depends on how much momentum they can build

 

[Hari Sombar]

wow, Perera's action look way dodgy

 

[161]

A run a ball gets us to 300.

So minimum 320-330 for a good total?

sorry but we don't have wickets in hand anymore.

i predict we get around 290-300.

 

[Farrukh]

4s r dried up

 

[Ralync]

too many dots in the last few overs

 

[Oxy]

sorry but we don't have wickets in hand anymore.

i predict we get around 290-300.

Apology accepted.

 

[Bailan]

4s r dried up

well the lankans are cheating

 

[Salman]

Possibly 320 plus if all goes well...


Razzaq's still very quite

261-6 44.3

 

[Uzi]

Kamran is struggling. Need to get 300+ here.

 

[Ralync]

i think we need another performance from razzaq like the one against england 70 off 2 overs

 

[Salman]

Wide 262-6

 

[Easa]

Wow, that is a blatant chuck. After he chucks one, he bowls normally for a couple of deliveries as if to say, I can chuck one an over umpire!

 

[Big Mac]

I saw Afridi's dismissal right now, he is too hit and miss

NOW you realise that?

 

[Farrukh]

this is make or break over. razzi hit now or get out

 

[Ralync]

almopst 10 overs since last boundary shocking

 

[Salman]

Four!!!!! Kami

 

[Rob H]

Kamran tried to smash that into Dubai

 

[161]

i hope someone is recording this and can post highlights of perera's dodgy action

 

[Salman]

266-6 44.5 Overs

 

[Farrukh]

probably pitch has become slow n low. wot u think guys??

 

[Easa]

Akmal smashes a 4 through cover - brilliant shot!

266/6

 

[Rob H]

267/6 off 45

 

[Salman]

Hum roti boti kayaingay.... Hum roti boti kayaingay....

 

[Waseem]

Finally some boundaries, come on AKmal you gotta make up for the maiden over.

Razzaq and Sami should make way for Najaf and Alam regardless of the result today.

 

[Bailan]

chukera's one more over left ...

 

[Farrukh]

too much pressure on akmal. he is trying to do the work of razzaq

 

[dblock]

Raazq looks like a spent force.

 

[Rob H]

down the ground and sliced for 4 over cover. Decent shot if it comes off.

 

[Bailan]

Razzaq seems to be using his test cricket philosophy

and back to back fours by Akmal

 

[Salman]

277-6... Another FOUR to Kami

 

[Straight Bat]

arrogant slower ball

 

[Rob H]

That's a great shot, flicked behind sqaure for 4. Back to back boundaries for Kamran.

 

[Farrukh]

Finally some boundaries, come on AKmal you gotta make up for the maiden over.

Razzaq and Sami should make way for Najaf and Alam regardless of the result today.

no offense but razzaq is behaving selfishly.

 

[Bailan]

and out :'(

 

[161]

Raazq looks like a spent force.

razzaq, unlike afridi, likes to play himself in before going for the big shots.

 

[Big Mac]

Akmal gone caught at point

 

[Salman]

OUT!!! KAmi ct 277-7

 

[Rob H]

Well Razzaq is needed now to provide the fireworks.

 

[Easa]

277/6 - 2 FOURS for Akmal!

 

[12thMan]

Akmal two fours and then out ct at point
Pak 277-7 after 45.5

 

[Bailan]

come on AKmal you gotta make up for the maiden over.

can't blame him for adjusting to chukera's new action

 

[Easa]

And out, caught at point!

 

[Straight Bat]

Was a good catch by Dilshan

 

[Salman]

We need at least 300 + to make a game of it... It's all down to Razzaq...



Sami on stike..

 

[Bailan]

all in all, akmal did well ... 89 runs in the tournament so far ...

 

[UJ]

Handy knock by Kami. Need to get 300 now.

 

[Waseem]

44.6 Perera to Akmal, 1 run, good length delivery on the off, Akmal comes on the frontfoot and goes for the big booming drive, mistimes it to mid off, Bandara puts down an easy catch, Akmal is DROPPED

Good to see Akmal is DROPPED for a change, usually it's Akmal DROPS!!!


Akmal gone after hitting 2 boundaries, good inning of 38 off 46 but could have done better than this.

 

[Saudi]

Nah I think the score is enough. Sri Lanka don't have too many decent batsmen and our bowling is quite well.

 

[Salman]

Razzq flicked for 2 .. 279-7

 

[Farrukh]

akmal got out due to razzaq. too much pressure on akmal. he cant hit every ball

 

[Saudi]

Razzaq dropped!!!

 

[Salman]

DROPPED ... Razzaq gets a life

 

[12thMan]

Razzaq going for a big one and Dilshan drops him

 

[Easa]

Razzaq also dropped now..

 

[Uzi]

Someone tell me why Sami is playing?

 

[Salman]

280 - 7 46.2 Overs


Sami on stike...

 

[Bailan]

now razzaq making sami do his job ...

 

[Saudi]

Sami is actually a decent number 9 methinks.
