It is a pity that they don't have speed gun. Rizwan Haider is bowling really quick, would have loved to see his speed.
 
Manzoor yet again goes for the only shot he knows on the offside, the cut, swing and miss
 
Repeat of the same ball. Does Manzoor only know the cut?! Swing and miss, run rate has increased drastically now
 
Shahzaib tells Manzoor to calm down.

Outside off, Manzoor now leaves the ball. Dot ball
 
Half-volley outside off, Manzoor cuts but straight to point. 1 off the over!

DOLPHINS 61/0 (11)
 
Irfan to Shahzaib - back of a length, played on the leg side to deep square leg for two.

63/0 (11.1)
 
Yorker on leg stump again! great yorkers by Irfan so far. Defended back to the bowler. Dot ball
 
Shahzaib pulls Irfan over midwicket for SIX! Dolphins were getting bogged down.

69/0 (11.3)
 
Thrashes Irfan inside out over the covers for FOUR! Beautiful stroke!

73/0 (11.5)

Is that the same guy who impressed many ppers by swinging the ball both ways in the RBS T20?? :13:

Could well be. He is bowling really quick, taking the ball away from shahzaib and khurram.
 
Thrashes Irfan over mid-off for FOUR more!

78/0 (12)

Run rate back to where it should be.

I am impressed with Irfan Pahtan, if he is selected for the England tour he will be a joy to watch there.

Irfan Pathan? the left arm spinner?

You must mean Irfan "the Giant" Khan.
 
This looks like a pretty exciting game now. Great opening stand, but Shahzaib has done most of the work. Manzoor looks average as usual
 
FIFTY for Shahzaib! Extremely well played, lad. Prove the damn selectors wrong.

80/0.
 
Outside off, Manzoor tries to run it down to third man and misses. Pretty ugly knock today from him, 80/0 (12.5)

Irfan is a nobody in the world of cricket. You only give respect to good / world class bowlers.

Have you ever played cricket? :13:

You think batsmen play bowler by reputation and not on merit?

Perhaps Pakistan batsmen do which is why they all suck (with one or two exceptions). Proper batsmen play the bowler on the merits of his delivery.

And perhaps this is why Afridi is a failure - because he does not play the ball on it's merits.

There is something in that for all of us. :)

This. +1
 
Shahzaib - This boy, if given the opportunity, will be worldclass and a possible great of pakistan cricket!
 
Good straight and full ball, Manzoor smacks it straight to mid off. Dot ball

Thank you for backing me up.....:)
 
why are players from other provinces playing for balochistan ? only people living there should represent it . else we are never going to see baloch people playing cricket for pakistan
 
Short of a length on leg stump, poor ball and Manzoor pulls through short fine leg for FOUR.

No point in having short fine leg if the bowler is bowling short, bad tactic :))
 
Manzoor plays a full ball as a fulltoss and smacks the ball straight, beats mid-off and it goes for FOUR - finally a decent-looking shot

93/0 (15)

Good run rate.
 
WOW! Shahzaib showing raw power.

Just thumps it over extra cover for a one bounce four of the SLA bowler. Lovely shot!
 
100 for the 1st wicket, just in the 16th over! Brilliant. :14:

Good, solid and sensible batting by the fatso. I think I even detected him sprinting once! :O

Playing each and every delivery on merit and giving respect to a bowler is two completely different things.

Have you ever played cricket? :13:

Perhaps you shouldn't make such assumptions.
 
Manzoor plays to midwicket for two.

108/0 (18)

Good stand, very good stand. Manzoor has played an ugly knock but whatever, the runs are there.
 
If Shahzaib gets a century today, Mohsin should know he's pretty dumb not to have him in the squad.

Almost a run out chance
 
That's absolutely plumb, full and straight ball from the spinner. Manzoor tries to defend on the front foot and the ball strikes flush on the pad. Umpire raises his finger, no doubt about it!

110/1 (18.3).

Good stand broken
 
Shahzaib Hasan lbw b Zulfiqar Babar 62 (49b 5x4 4x6) SR: 126.53

Fall of wicket: 110/1 (18.3 ov); Partnership: 110 runs, 18.3 overs, RR: 5.94
