[saiyan0312]

So guys how is the pitch. Is it swinging or will it spin late. The way we batted looks like a swinger but we bat like this always.

[Nikhil_cric]

There was no need for such extravagance. 5 boundaries had already been scored.

 

[Mr Consistent]

younis bahi
u r senior bro

 

[Justcrazy]

is a hopeless program , he cannot be modified , he needs to be deleted from Selectors Hard drive otherwise he will corrupt all other files

 

[Justcrazy]

7263 runs so far

 

[Mr Consistent]

top delivery

 

[saiyan0312]

this pitch is reminding of SA.

 

[saiyan0312]

fifty for khurram. well played.

 

[Sunny786]

is a hopeless program , he cannot be modified , he needs to be deleted from Selectors Hard drive otherwise he will corrupt all other files

I see what you did there

 

[Mr Consistent]

fifty for kurri

 

[Justcrazy]

50 for Manzoor , he needs to carry on and get a big one

 

[Badsha]

can someone get me a radio feed?

 

[HASHAM2]

300 Will be Good First Inning score on this Match
as Bowl Swinging and There will be Spin For ajmal later on

But Pakistan should go for safe scores in between 350-400

 

[Justcrazy]

Lakmal has given away just 16 in his 10 overs

 

[Justcrazy]

Will the pitch turn later or become a flat road again?

 

[Justcrazy]

83 / 2 after 30

 

[HASHAM2]

Good to see All three SL Fast bowler,s bowling at 135kph

 

[Sakss]

Looks like Ajmal wont get much out of this pitch either

 

[Mr Consistent]

[Justcrazy]

Sri Lanka's new coach, Paul Farbrace is sitting with the selectors

 

[Justcrazy]

Lanka tightening up the things here

 

[Sakss]

Manzoor has an ugly technique

 

[Mr Consistent]

Waqas Sial: "Disappointed to see tha way Hafeez took it casually... When a senior is in great form he should also show some responsibility."

 

[Mr Consistent]

good delivery

 

[Sakss]

Lakmal and Pradeep keeping things tight.

 

[Mr Consistent]

:4 for younis bahi

 

[Justcrazy]

:4

Finally a boundary

 

[Justcrazy]

Sumzy: "Sri Lanka is playing with 4 seam bowlers in addition to the 4 wicket keepers. Eranga, Lakmal, Pradeep and Matthews. There is no one to support Herath as a second spinner or somoene who can bowl with a shorter run up. They will have a really hard time maintaining the over rate.

 

[Justcrazy]

16 run partnership so far.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan run rate has been pretty slow , Pakistan RR 2.73

 

[Justcrazy]

98 / 2

36 overs

 

[Justcrazy]

100 up for Pakistan

 

[Mr Consistent]

100 for pak

 

[bluffmasterv2]

Pakistan run rate has been pretty slow , Pakistan RR 2.73

Its been over 4 this session dude. First session ball was seaming around for almost every over so such run rate was acceptable.

Are you a pessimist ?

 

[Justcrazy]

Manzoor moves to 65

 

[Mr Consistent]

:6 by manzoor

 

[usman_ash14]

Although Manzoor has an atrocious technique, it is refreshing to see that he plays positively and not go in a shell. That seems to be the only reason why he is out scoring other Pakistani openers.

 

[Justcrazy]

Its been over 4 this session dude. First session ball was seaming around for almost every over so such run rate was acceptable.

Are you a pessimist ?

NO .

But if you want to win , you need to make things happen.

 

[ChaudrySaab]

Younis Khan is an absoulute delight to watch

 

[ChaudrySaab]

Manzoor really opening up

 

[Blade-Runner]

Bye bye younis khan !!!

 

[Mr Consistent]

[OZGOD]

Crowd of 5 stands and claps Younis Khan off the field
