not long now only 4.30 hrs remain :D anyways will keep bringing you all the updates etc..

for now i have watched a programme called score special...it had javed miandad and aamir sohail on....and some very intresting things came out...for starters they said that salman butt isnt in the good books anymore of the pakistani think tank and he might not play this game..:O...amazing....

aamir sohail does make sense at times...some of his views were spot on , others (when it involved bob woolmer didnt make any sense :D)...but one thing that really made a lot of sense was that why leave mohd sami out if you had waqar younis as the bowling coach who was going on the tour.!

javed miandad said the apointment of the bowling coach wasnt a step taken by the PCB, it was more of a reaction to the defeat and the pressure created by everyone saying we need a bowling coach...some excellent analysis and comments from both the ex-players..(and its clear to see how well both go along...aamir n miandad combo works well :| and i thought they never really got along , but miandad was agreeing with aamir and vice-versa easily...:O
 
ohh bhaijan mere game is 5hours away. chal ja ke so ja or sort out your run-up :D
 
and yeah the main one....the person asked about inzi,s statement about the weather being hot n himid and side fielding first will get tired and wont be able to bat as effectively etc...in reply aamir sohail came out with all guns blazing and said thats just negative captaincy by inzi first of all he shouldnt complain since its international cricket, 2ndly they have enough man power (trainers , physio etc) and if he comes out and says this then that means the team isnt physically fit (he also said i personally think inzi said that about himself)......then he said , they knew the condition in srilanka are going to be like that , then why not have your condiitioning camp in karachi? why such poor planning? and why is the coach and all the trainers here there every where and so are the players? they should be preparing for the tour not taking holidays..:)):)))
 
another reason to not like sri lanka! it's 3 am in the morning EST! do these ppl think about us when planning the series?! we only pay millions in revenue for PPV matches!

We might win this game then ;-)
 
I doubt wether we would get a game today or not, heavy rain forecast in Sri Lanka today.

I understand your point bro. One of my freind works for such company and man he is making tons of money.

Why not we join forces and start a lil Advertising Agency. The as we earn money we can starte up a broad casting company and make tons of money ourselves.

OPs Sorry Cavin for hijacking your thread. :91::91::91::91::91:
 
yes nauman, thats what they were saying as well, they had one of their reporters in colombo who was giving the report on weather and he said the rain had actually stopped but still loads of water was on the streets etc...but he said the super soaker could comeinto play and might be useful then he contradicted himself by saying weather forcast for tomorrow isnt promising as well......but hell who knows its only a weather forcast ;-) fingers crossed lets hope for the best as i will be making my debut today as a match reporter ;-)
 
Weather is definitely not good. Like Nauman said, the first game is likely to get washed out or we might have a 20 or 30-over a side game.

Pakistan will hopefully give a much improved performance than what they gave in the Hutch Cup. Hopefully Uncle Bob has worked on our terrible fielding, if therer is no improvement sack him! :D

Our openers have to give us a good start, atleast 60-70 runs will do. From then the pressure gets released and our middle-order does very well. You need good starts to make big scores, and Pakistan should look to make 300 every time they go out to bat.

Coming to the aspect of bowling, we are missing too much over here. Led by Rana Naved our bowling is looking very weak with the absence of speedsters Sami and Shoaib. Instead of opting for pace, our selectors have gone for L & L bowlers, and I wish this does not haunt us afterwards! They could easily have gone for Irshad or Rauf, yet they picked two young spinners who I dont think will get a game....

Inshallah Pakistan will come back roaring and take their rightful positrion in the top 5, by sweeping away the Sri Lankans 3-0!

Interesting situation for SL-- they need to win all 3 ODIs to ensure that they dont have to qualify for the Champions Trophy later this year. Theres a little extra pressure for them to add to the injuries to Vaas, Perrera and Jayasuriya.
 
Vaas is a very intelligent bowler and not having him in the side means lots of runs may be leaked in the last few overs.
 
Thats true. The other pacers wont be able to keep it quiet against Afrid, Razzaq and co!

Nice work there buddy But I hope that dose not happen in the Park so we can have a macth.
 
perhaps someone whose in srilanka right now would be able to tell us the current situation wheres that srilankan fan when you need him oy, juggy D ...help us out here...your a valued member of pakpassion right now ;-)
 
60% chance of rain is not that much. I don't think it's going to rain.

Any news on the team? I hope they play Tahir Khan and he blasts 48 in 12 balls again or something.
 
March is usually a good month for cricket in SL. Hot weather. Sunny. The humidity brings in the occasional showers though. They shouldn't be too serious. Lets keep our fingers crossed. :D

Someone get this grandad off the TV and give me my crikeet ffs
 
oxy , nadia is a song .....:))):)) you can get it from the salman ahmad infinity thread..:)):)))

well this is frustrating, they have cricket scheduled to be on air at 8 am..............nearly quarter past now...........
 
Any idea why ARY is telling me how much it will cost to subscribe to the cricket - without telling me why they are not showing any cricket at the moment???
 
good morning big mac, i still havent got the fone call from you, remember without mohd sami no team is complete ;-)

sanjay manjerakor...ok this looks promising........wow that was rather pleasent before he mentioned mohd asif ;-)

the weather looks ok.............seems to be fine to me!!! clear blue skies!!!!
 
Oh dear, Manjrekar can't even be bothered to shave OR turn his microphone on
 
Good start ARY - 1 sec into transmission and NO SOUND!!!

Manjraker looks like he has just woken up.
 
what happend to sanjary manjerakor did rameez and he split up ???

ok there you go ary su******.no soundddddddddd what are they talking about anyone???

suns out peeps :D
 
I told you before Cavin, I may be a great coach but I can't help you become like Mohammed Sami. Only your hair stylist can do that.
 
IDIOTS at ARY dont know anything about cricket - they think that Manjreaker and his mate are just miming.

Now Rameez and his mate are miming.

ARY solution? Hit the 'ad break button'????

indeed went to sleep at 3 that balnce sheet balanced finally but it killed me
ha ha ha ha, good on you!! i much prefer profil /loss accounts , i dont even mind doing cashflows but balance sheets duh...............everytime im able to balance em off its a miracle :D


the weather doesnt look bad to me really........i much rather be in srilanka right now then in england:|
 
Salam guys, so Pakistan batting first eh!! Interesting!
 
Oxy™ said:

both the capitains agreed before the series begun (like the aus-sa series)that not to use the super-subs ssince they find the idea crap!
 
waslam raz, how you doing?alright?

i would love to see freedi coming out with salu but lets see....whose coming out

Strange that Sri Lanka agreed, they have had some success with this supersub rule, particularly using Bandara as their supersub.
 
Oxy™ said:

It comes in handy in nightclubs when deciding which girls I want to molest...I think I've said too much already :15:

As for the supersubs it's a gentleman's agreement between the two captains to play 11 vs 11 and do away with the supersubs. The rules as they stand dictate that you must name a supersub but for all intents and purposes they're not there.
 
Is this Pak just following the others? Why not be proactive and protest during the Ind series?
