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

[ekpakistani]

this is too easy for SL now ... really pathetic bowling today .. and even worse is our fielding ..

fielding should be a pre-requiste for a player

 

[96NotOut]

Junaid was number 11 in the ODI ICC rankings before this. Now?

 

[saiyan0312]

3 from the over... bring in ajmal. i can assure you it wont go the last 5 overs.

 

[Bilal7]

Moisture or the lack of it doesn't really help when the line and length is not appropriate to the field setting

Agreed. That has been the main problem for the pacers. Many people here think that if pacers are getting smashed it means that they are not moving the ball which is not necessarily the case.

 

[Nado_]

18 for 3, game was over then

 

[Barragan]

This is how Juni should bowl with the new ball.

Much better and this length will help him get wickets upfront.

 

[The intelligent Supporter]

I take it was bad? Was it? What subject?

Advanced Mechanics..Basically a Maths Paper

 

[ekpakistani]

if we don't get a 2-3 wickets in next 5 overs . my suggestion is to stop watching the match .. you can end up saving 1.5 hours of ur life

 

[OZGOD]

Pakistan deserve to lose this on the fielding alone, never mind the bowling. The fielding has been very casual. People stopping the ball with their foot, that's very poor and could easily result in injury.

 

[asadee]

If Gul comes now match will be over in 10 minutes

 

[ekpakistani]

key key moment

 

[Bilsher007]

Same place again. Brainless stuff by talha. I hate to say this but he reminds of indian bowlers who just bowl with teh works without thinking.

That what i said that he looks like a bowler who bowls without thinking, planning and accuracy.

 

[cricket geek]

pak dearly need couple of wickets to sense a chance in the match.

 

[saiyan0312]

ajmal on... i guess the ajmal junaid combo is on.

 

[Madplayer]

ajmal on. Only he can save us now. Need him to take 2 wickets in next 2 overs

 

[EarthBoltX]

So our bowling really didn't show up in the final.
That's sad.

 

[Bilsher007]

if we don't get a 2-3 wickets in next 5 overs . my suggestion is to stop watching the match .. you can end up saving 1.5 hours of ur life

I agree with you. I will give it 10 mins more and if no wickets come then i am getting up.

 

[Energetic]

Its obviously easier to bat at night.

 

[Barragan]

What match were you watching? There was minimum swing in that game and both sets of bowlers managed to move it around in the first few overs and nothing after that.

If the Pak bowlers got whacked, the Pak batsmen chased down 320+ and almost chased down 290. Tells you all that is needed to know.

Not a single bowler has managed to consistently swing and get wickets with the new ball and the Pakistanis have been just as poor as everyone else.

Actually, Pak's bowling has been one of the worst in the tournament and only, BD have worse but they are spin heavy.

[Asif321]

we should have chased last 2 matches won by chasing confidence was high and batting is easy in 2nd innings

 

[saiyan0312]

2 from the over.

 

[malik29695]

giving easy singles poor captaincy: (

 

[mosh101]

What a one sided affair

 

[saiyan0312]

Maybe try to stop singles to make them hit.

 

[Madplayer]

bowling attack is having too many off days

 

[cricket geek]

come on ajmal get a hattrick.

 

[mosh101]

No Intent in the field or in the bowling !

 

[Bilsher007]

If Gul comes now match will be over in 10 minutes

Misbah might as well do ys a favour and bring gul and get the match over and done with as gul will bowl his usual rubbish .

 

[saiyan0312]

goes short and he hits him. WHY!!!!!!

 

[ekpakistani]

try alam .

They've definitely been below par but lack of movement is not the reason behind it. I thought I had made that clear.

 

[ekpakistani]

our pace bowling is really pathetic

 

[OZGOD]

Misbah needs to find someone to throw the ball to who can bowl tight and take wickets. Who?

 

[Zero]

May God have mercy on your soul.
I struggle with Mechanics in Physics.

 

[Shafi]

Poor bowling by all the stupid fast bowlers!!!

 

[cricket geek]

when batting starts improving bowling forms goes bad.

 

[mosh101]

Another four !

Spineless bowling

 

[Energetic]

Sri Lanka looks on course for an 8th straight ODI win.

 

[EarthBoltX]

And Junaid... Man, I had faith in you to deliver when it mattered.

 

[saiyan0312]

Still short... Junaid this is brainless stuff.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Boundaries are so easy yet we struggled so much

 

[Wattoo]

Fawadd ko over dena chahiay

 

[Barragan]

Well, this game is over and I can't watch these trundlers bowl short and get pummeled to all parts of the ground.

Ciao

 

[CalculatedRisk]

Please do away with mentally weak players. Our top order cost us the game. This was never a 260 pitch.

 

[mosh101]

W.T.F is wrong with our bowlers today?

Our bowling has been pathetic throughout the tournament !

Agar bangaliyo ney 300 maar liya toh Lanka ney toh dhona he tha !

 

[cricket geek]

junaid going for boundries.

 

[malik29695]

flat track make bowlers look ordinary

 

[OmaIR1]

glad i didn't get up to watch this... don't care about asia cup much... it would be nice to win this but not essential... the win against india was important.... we have bigger fish to fry come 2 weeks

 

[EarthBoltX]

flat track make bowlers look ordinary

Like Malinga?

 

[mosh101]

Best bowling attack?

 

[saiyan0312]

Junaid question. WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR PACE.!!! 126 kph stuff. Pick yourself up or i am going to advocate your drop.

 

[ekpakistani]

it may sound wrong but Misbah should give the ball to Gul ... and tell him to just focus on bowling yorkers ..

 

[cricket geek]

only ajmal is a outstanding bowler rest of them are just ordinary or just above ordiniary

 

[HamzaSaeen]

I used to be a fan of Junaid...

 

[Bilal7]

Everything will be back to normal once Pakistan stop playing on these roads.

[cricket geek]

lank going with the flow

 

[asadee]

no intensity from our team for the final

 

[Bilsher007]

Cheer up guys this us blessing in disguise, talha and gul will get dropped and we will finally see sadaf hussain, hopefully fit muhammed irfan and some other new fast bowlers are picked for T-20 world cup 2014 also hosted in bangladesh.

 

[cricket geek]

lets see

 

[saiyan0312]

3 from the over.

 

[m.shah]

Can pak make a comeback here

 

[cricket geek]

run rate slightly going down

 

[ekpakistani]

this is the time when we need a hatrick ... trouble is none of the bowlers seem to be able to get it ..

perhaps by some miracle .. Gul starts bowling yorkers?

 

[EarthBoltX]

Everything will be back to normal once Pakistan stop playing on these roads.

Too bad we have a World Cup to play on these roads.

 

[dhump]

Cheer up guys this us blessing in disguise, talha and gul will get dropped and we will finally see sadaf hussain, hooefully fit muhammed irfan and some othe new fadt bowlers for T-20 world cup 2014 also hosted in bangladesh.

Its Pakistan we will see sohail tanveer trundling and wahab sharma instead of gul and talha and guys like bhatti would be dropped after 1 bad game.

 

[Donal Cozzie]

Gul coming back..... uh oh

 

[saiyan0312]

umer gul.

 

[ekpakistani]

Gul is back ... this could be the moment

 

[cricket geek]

mahela playing for his half century

 

[asadee]

Gul coming back..... uh oh

match will be done in his 3 overs

 

[HamzaSaeen]

Gul is trundling at 120s

 

[Bilal7]

Too bad we have a World Cup to play on these roads.

But T20s all about batting though. Bowlers keep it tight and they have an excellent game.

 

[EarthBoltX]

Well, I need to stop crying here, first of all.
Hopefully Ajmal unleashes the Choutha.
And the Guldozer shows his yorkers.

 

[saiyan0312]

they are really taking it easy.

 

[imshally81]

So we lost final of U-19 WC
Now ... Asia Cup...
What about T20 .. ???

 

[desi_launda]

Lady playing for his half century

 

[saiyan0312]

no threat in that over. They can easily attack but are not risking it.

 

[Shafi]

One side match!!! Fast bowlers still clueless!!!!

 

[Bilsher007]

Our bowling has been pathetic throughout the tournament !

Agar bangaliyo ney 300 maar liya toh Lanka ney toh dhona he tha !

Exactly the point, our bowling has been rubbish this tornament. Gul, junaid and afridi have been offcolour while talha is not much use anyway while hafeez is only container. That leaves ajmal who is the only one threatening. We badly miss muhammed irfan, muhammed amir in this bowling attack.
