Pakistanis v UWI VC XI | Warm Up Match | Castries | 18/04/11

[Nazir_ Rules]

WICKET! Bonner goes for a big hit and caught at wide long-off from Rehman. He made 43 off 69 balls. VCXI now 122 for 3 with 20 overs to go

 

[Atif]

3 down or 4 down ?

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

3 down.

 

[srh]

they need 166 runs to win in 20 overs. Required Run Rate = 8.3

 

[Pak_Jazba]

How many Bonners do they have? I thought that guy was already out.

 

[ehtesham]

I dont believe any English player is worthy of it . Overrated players all of them, except that Wilshere guy(looked quite a talent).

yup wilshire is a youngsta beauty.... but dont under-rate bale... he is a class act... didin't u c the spurs-inter match??? btw he is not an english.. he is from wales

 

[Rubicon]

LOL I'm confused too
They said 3 down earlier, now 3 down again with new wicket coment

Surely its 4 down

Think the twitter moderator is confused

 

[ehtesham]

Bale recieved the PFA player of the year and Wilshere recieved the PFA young player of the year, now let's stick to the topic of this thread please.

EDIT -

Another wicket! Left-hander Ottley is bowled for a "duck" to give Rehman his 2nd wicket. VCXI now on 124 for 5 with 18 overs to go

The VC XI falling apart now. Good bowling by the youngsta Abdur Rehman

 

[BoomBoomCricket]

BIG 6! Dwayne Bravo turning it on! FOUR over midwicket and then a MAX on top roof of the grandstand at square leg. He's on 23 and VCXI 135/5

[Afridi_Fan]

People living in Pak, are you still up following the game?

Yes. Thanks to insomnia.

 

[yadunoe]

Pakistan is playing a Practice game and not even a scorecard

imagine india playing a practice game it would have even been in HD

lol hahahahahah so true

 

[ehtesham]

How's it going everyone?

[BoomBoomCricket]

Bravo is the last hope for the opposition.

 

[PakCrikNeedsFixin]

So Rehman takes 2 wickets. Hope this doesn't give him the nod over Ajmal again

 

[pakistan_pride1]

[Batman]

UWI VC | 5/138 | 35 Overs | Need 150 runs from 15 Overs

 

[TalhaSyed]

WICKET! Walton goes to Rehman. Tried to go over cover and caught at point for 4. VCXI 146 for 6

 

[yadunoe]

I think your signature is the best solution of Kashmir problem.

i thought was a non political thread

 

[yadunoe]

how much runs did mmad make

 

[AikAlif]

Rehman with his 3rd!

146/6

 

[Afridi_Fan]

3rd for Youngster Beauty.

Now Rehman is definitely going to play ahead of Ajmal

 

[Rubicon]

WICKET! Walton goes to Rehman. Tried to go over cover and caught at point for 4. VCXI 146 for 6

bit too slow there

 

[Fireworks11]

The game is done, unless UWI XI have a Kevin O Brian.

 

[AikAlif]

3rd for Youngster Beauty.

hahaha

i really don't get the unnecessary hate for Rehman. He bowled very well in my opinion during the WC. kept it really tight, particularly with the new ball.

Ross Taylor apparently had some "neuralyzer" effect on everyone.. we have to remember that we bowled very well in the NZ match up until the start of the 46th over. Basically suffocated them, and AR had a bit part in that.

he's a good bowler and i'm sticking to that. if no ajmal, then rehman.

 

[talha3]

AKA Dwayne Bravo...

but in this case, there's no Anderson, so we're safe.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

so far so good

Good stuff!

 

[NO 1 AFRIDI FAN]

AikAlif, if that was directed towards me I dont hate Rehman. I just think Saeed Ajmal should play ahead of him simply because he is BETTER than Rehman. Not because I hate Rehman!

 

[Deewana Mastana]

50 for Dwayne Bravo. Came off 58 balls. So far he has struck 2 sixes and 3 fours. VCXI on 158/6 off 38 overs

 

[AikAlif]

Dwayne Bravo with a 50. Still not out.

VCXI 158/6 with 12 overs to go.

288 to win.

Ajmal>>>Rehman anywhere in the Universe.

I don't think the hate is actually for Rehman. It's for the management who prefer him over Ajmal. And thus if Rehman performs everyone begins to think he'll play over Ajmal so start hating on him.

Like you said if not Ajmal then Rehman. But Ajmal must be No.1 choice. i done

Bravo is the last skittle standing.

agreed on that. Ajmal is a far more aggressive (and hence wicket-taking) bowler. but the vitriol (ok i exaggerate) aimed at Rehman is unwarranted imo.

 

[12cavalry]

So Junaid has taken just 1?

 

[AikAlif]

AikAlif, if that was directed towards me I dont hate Rehman. I just think Saeed Ajmal should play ahead of him simply because he is BETTER than Rehman. Not because I hate Rehman!

not aimed at you at all. i was amused at your "youngsta beauty" comment.. but then thought i'd put my 2 paisas worth on Rehman.. i've seen some comments about him.

agreed on Ajmal >> Rehman. but give the youngster a try too yaar!

 

[NO 1 AFRIDI FAN]

So Junaid has taken just 1?

Well I think so. But we dont know who took the 3rd wicket, so he might have 2.

not aimed at you at all. i was amused at your "youngsta beauty" comment.. but then thought i'd put my 2 paisas worth on Rehman.. i've seen some comments about him.

I didnt write that comment it was Afridi_Fan
Agreed that Ajmal >>> Rehman, but I still firmly stand on my belief that Ajmal should play ahead of Rehman.

But if your comment wasnt aimed at me, its all fine

the way raza hassan was bowling in t20 tournament, i feel raza is better both of them!, personally i feel its very hard to score against raza hasaan.

but from ajmal and rehman i would go for ajmal in odis and rehman for tests!

 

[AikAlif]

But if your comment wasnt aimed at me, its all fine

haha.. in the spirit of cricket in the Caribbean.. it's all gravy maan

 

[Afridi_Fan]

4th one. What a youngster.

 

[Toony™®]

Bravo falls caught at long-off off Rehman. He made a brilliant 63 off 70 balls. VCXI 171/7 off 40 overs. 117 to win off 10 overs

 

[AikAlif]

i don't know what it is about this team.. maybe it's the fact that we finally have a prolific and charismatic captain after a very long time, or that i'm still buoyed by our performance at the world cup (as sad as it was to lose to bharat, it was still a very pleasant surprise to see the team play as they did)

but somehow i believe it when Afridi says things like this team is going to keep getting better and better. here's to a brighter (and inshAllah more honest) future of Pakistan cricket..
