Pakistan vs Sri Lanka | Asia Cup Final 2014 | Dhaka | 8/3/2014 | Pakistan Innings

[GreenKnightRises]

. Well played Tuck Tuck

 

[saiyan0312]

Lakmal is back.

 

[Red Devil]

Wide

 

[saiyan0312]

Why wasnt that a wide. ?

 

[imranraf]

If Fawad can hold one end, I am sure Misbah, Akmal and Afridi has the capacity to up the run rate. I would like to see Fawad increase his strike rate though.

 

[ammar93]

That was wide....

 

[Sam18696]

Fawad...

 

[imranraf]

How was that not a wide?

 

[steelo green]

Wide...

 

[Sam18696]

Misbah tell him calm down

 

[Asif321]

fawad is too itchy

 

[imranraf]

Lakmal is still getting some swing off the track.

 

[Aloo Chaat]

fawad ...

 

[Red Devil]

Dropped by Sanga

 

[Sam18696]

FAWAD

 

[saiyan0312]

aggressive umeresque slog and he edges to keeper but dropped.

 

[Aloo Chaat]

whats fawad doing

 

[Haz95]

fawad's lack of power is creeping in....

 

[imranraf]

Fawad should wait till powerplay before playing these kinds of risky shots.

 

[mosh101]

Dropped !

Looks like fawad is in a rush to the head to the dressing room

 

[Ahson8]

Fawad is going to get out soon

 

[Shafi]

Fawad survives!!!

 

[Aloo Chaat]

this is bs ... these guys need to go for it now

 

[OZGOD]

Harsha trying to criticise Fawad.

 

[ammar93]

See he realizes that they need to increase the run rate and since he's having trouble hitting he's playing rash shots.

 

[saiyan0312]

Fawad placement not slogs.

 

[JibranAnsari]

There wont be enough overs left after misbah and fawad get out to score 250.

 

[castortroy]

Fawad to get out here

 

[OZGOD]

Time to play some shots now. They have been at the wicket for 20 overs now

 

[imranraf]

Fawad is going to get out soon

May not be a bad thing if Umer and Afridi clicks today. Could be horrible if they both fail.

 

[saiyan0312]

single for fawad... like that. leave the shots for misbah if you cant hit.

 

[lilFlip]

Fawad is over-trying imo

 

[Aloo Chaat]

114/3 after 33 ...

 

[saiyan0312]

Now is the time to up the RR

 

[mosh101]

So whats the plan Mr Misbah? Target of 200 - 210?

 

[London_Lahori]

Fawad needs to stay there until the end.

Keep the innings stable and the rest can accelerate.

 

[ekpakistani]

time to go ballistic ... aim for atleast 8 an over from here

 

[castortroy]

Afridi won't come of again

Malinga still has 6 overs

 

[Red Devil]

PP just around the corner now

 

[mosh101]

Sheikh Rasheed in the stadium !

 

[imranraf]

I got the feeling this pitch and Sri Lankan bowling might not help Afridi to play the kinds of innings he played against India and Bangladesh. Pitch is helping the seamers and Sri Lanka have Malinga, Lakmal as well.

 

[saiyan0312]

thisara on... cmon show him his place.

 

[Red Devil]

:6 by Fawad

 

[ammar93]

Ha hahahahaha lol that's his fourth.

 

[saiyan0312]

finally he connects well. Well done.

 

[London_Lahori]

:6 fawad

 

[lilFlip]

shot

 

[Red Devil]

100 partnership up too

 

[saiyan0312]

partnership.

 

[Aloo Chaat]

:6

Finally

 

[uberkoen]

:6

fawaaaadd!

 

[ekpakistani]

6 .. thanks for obliging

 

[Boi]

Shot!

 

[mosh101]

Fawad needs to stay there until the end.

Keep the innings stable and the rest can accelerate.

And fawad smacks a six

By the looks of it, fawad is going to accelerate and misbah wants to stay till the end !

 

[saiyan0312]

for fawad/.

 

[Shafi]

6 by Fawad!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[London_Lahori]

50 Fawad!

Well batted

 

[Red Devil]

Fifty for Fawad

 

[Ahson8]

Fawad 50 (off 91 balls though)

 

[saiyan0312]

So we have two batsmen that can play the final matches.

 

[MarkCooper]

Fawad has a cricketing brain. Some players are good or bad or great players but don't have cricketing brains.

Both Misbah and Fawad have cricket brains. Cricket smart.

 

[farsiddiqui]

Fawad 50 (off 91 balls though)

Repeat after me: 18 for 3!

 

[Shafi]

We need to survive Malinga's yorkers to score more!!!

 

[GreenKnightRises]

LoL. On the face of those who said this guy can't clear the 30 yard circle

 

[saiyan0312]

10 from the over... good one for us.

 

[mosh101]

PP a over away now ! Fawad needs to keep his cool !

 

[Red Devil]

10 runs from the over

 

[Shafi]

Well done Fawad!!!

 

[Aloo Chaat]

124/3 at 34

 

[imshally81]

Haters gonna hate ....

 

[kinventor]

I just hope this wicket is bad for batting after looking at score.

 

[imranraf]

I just hope this wicket is bad for batting after looking at score.

Not bad for batting. It's just our top 3 failed horribly and put the rest of the team in a bad situation. Also, I think, we are playing with one batsman short today anyway. 250-270 should be the par score on this track. We would be very lucky to get even close to that.

 

[ritzy_123]

So what now we are struggling with scoreboard.. Once again we can collapse if we don't pace our innings now

[saiyan0312]

Loud appeal and not given.

 

[imshally81]

not out

 

[Donal Cozzie]

Big lbw appeal turned down

 

[imranraf]

That was outside the leg. Lakmal appealed like it was plumb.

 

[ammar93]

That was definitely not out. Quit over appealing damnit!

 

[steelo green]

I thought that was out. Great call.

 

[Red Devil]

Two brilliant yorkers
