[Asif321]

Take a Bow Misbah and Umar ....... :umarakmal

 

[carbon11]

strike rate of 90

 

[iRfaN_LA]

Great effort by Akmal and Misbah

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

Wild Swing.

 

[JellyBro]

wild swing and a miss

 

[pakistani lion]

well played chota akmal!!

 

[Munna]

This is pakistani standard fielding by the lankans

 

[12cavalry]

Going for the bonus point it seems

 

[carbon11]

 

[dhump]

This is pakistani standard fielding by the lankans

after Fountain now way

 

[JellyBro]

Umar needs to improve his post 50 game. Plays too many shots and doesn't look to stay at the crease

 

[Amjid Javed]

Good to see boundarys being picked off here regularly...

Pak 146/3

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

this is pakistani standard fielding by the lankans

+1 ) ) )

 

[12cavalry]

These two have tamed Malinga pretty nicely

 

[chuck]

Target should be achieved by 38 overs for bonus point.

 

[pakistani lion]

Good to see Akmal in touch before the match against india

 

[AZulfi]

This responsible controlled knock under pressure should silence Misbah critics

 

[Asif321]

Shut up and Play :umarakmal
Critics Goneee Quiet

 

[Amjid Javed]

Should be pakistans 6th win in 7 games over Sri lanka

We love playing them.

 

[Inswinger]

Umar will go after the bowlers in the PP. Bonus Point.

 

[chuck]

These two have tamed Malinga pretty nicely

He has lost focus since WC mauling. In CB series, Kohli treated him like 3rd grade club bowler.

 

[Asif321]

Target should be achieved by 38 overs for bonus point.

40 overs

 

[Looney]

Want to see Afridi bat

 

[chuck]

40 overs

I think 38, the difference of NRR should be 1.25

 

[Inswinger]

Umar should have put the no-ball away.

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

Pak 151/3

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

 

[chuck]

It was a tricky chase, looks pretty easy with Misbah around. But if he hadn't controlled the innings then anything could have happenned. HA and Afridi are hit and miss players, rest are bowlers and it would have been down to luck if we had to depend on them.

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

I think we are going for Bonus point.

 

[dhump]

2 super special shots from Junior Akmal after a long time good to see him in flow.

 

[12cavalry]

Haha

Umar playing some cracking shots.

 

[carbon11]

can shafiq play pull shots like that ?

 

[iRfaN_LA]

Bonus point looks possible.

 

[chuck]

Need 30 in 2 overs for bonus point

 

[akamaka]

we get a bonus point if we score 29 runs from 24 balls

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

by

 

[12cavalry]

Beautiful shot through the covers

 

[chui_kadoo]

Super partnership this after we were 33-3

 

[carbon11]

 

[chuck]

The value of Misbah

 

[chuck]

Umar is gaining a lot while playing with a senior pro like Misbah. He needs more of that.

 

[bforme]

and the people wanted Umar Akmal to be dropped..........

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

169/3

 

[12cavalry]

Lankans overdoing the short stuff.

 

[iRfaN_LA]

Need 20 runs in 3 overs.

 

[12cavalry]

Who will end up with the higher score

 

[Asif321]

should go for bonus point here .. to keep ourselves save

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

 

[ss3samzy]

shut up and play :umarakmal
critics goneee quiet

100+

 

[Asif321]

kya baat hai misbah

 

[ss3samzy]

wheres the fake fans gone now?

 

[12cavalry]

Umar will definitely go for it

 

[chuck]

Lankans overdoing the short stuff.

They want to save the bonus point to have an outside chance if Pak and BL both beat India. Wait they still will not go through as India defeated SL. In other words, SL are out.

 

[carbon11]

umar akmal will also get a test spot as well back from shafiq

whatmore will back akmal over shafiq

 

[12cavalry]

Misbah saying to Umar "out nahi hona"

 

[Asif321]

this is what misbah is capable of .. and all started to bash him up

 

[the Great Khan]

umar akmal will also get a test spot as well back from shafiq

whatmore will back akmal over shafiq

that would be unfair on shafiq who has shown more temprament than brainless the boy wonder!

 

[iRfaN_LA]

14 in 2 overs now.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Just 15 to win now

 

[Strike!]

Bonus point please.

 

[AZulfi]

Misbah and Umar Akmal have rescued Pakistan today but what if we were 33/3 down chasing a target of 270+ (instead of 189)?

 

[carbon11]

that would be unfair on shafiq who has shown more temprament than brainless the boy wonder!

brainlees boy wonder has done his role he has been averaging 40 since last yr as a number 6 slogger, so why blame him

to average 40 as number 6 pinch hitter

when he is given proper chance to play innings u see result today

akmal > shafiq anytime

 

[iRfaN_LA]

Gully loves the racket )

 

[jack_sparrow]

Misbah and Umar Akmal have rescued Pakistan today but what if we were 33/3 down chasing a target of 270+ (instead of 189)?

m sure misbah would have gone for draw then

 

[Inswinger]

that would be unfair on shafiq who has shown more temprament than brainless the boy wonder!

What's unfair on Shafiq is Useless Khan not giving up in ODIs.

not in tests...he needs to sort his head out first!

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

 

[chuck]

no bonus point

 

[pakistani lion]

umar akmal is amazing

 

[jack_sparrow]

misbah n umar played very well tonight n both rightly deserve the applause.

 

[carbon11]

umar akmal is our best batting talent the sooner haterz realise this the better

 

[chui_kadoo]

awesome

 

[the Great Khan]

smashed by brainless..looks like whatmore has done something to his head!

 

[chuck]

SL have been defeated by some margin in this Asia cup (came close to conceding bonus point in both games). What happenned to them since CB series - even in CB, they kept losing to India. I guess Aus, by design, allowed them to enter final so that they can win .

 

[chui_kadoo]

150 partnership

 

[12cavalry]

Cmon Junior end it with a six

 

[pakistani lion]

Junior to wrap this up with a big shot

 

[Muhammad Waleed]

 

[12cavalry]

nooo

 

[iRfaN_LA]

Junior didn't have to do that. Four runs from the last over now.
