South Africa vs Pakistan | 1st ODI | Cape Town | 24-11-2013 | Pakistan Innings

[Sportsmanship]

PAK - 13/0 (4.0 Ovs)

 

[On_the_up]

13 off 4

 

[CalculatedRisk]

Chris Broad is the referee. Pak better be at their best behavior

 

[The intelligent Supporter]

Jamshaiddd...jamshaidd

 

[pungi]

Its an ideal opportunity for Jamshed and Shehzad to build a 100 runs partnership, and set up a platform for others to capitalize. Pakistan will have a very good chance to win this match, if they could set a target of 250ish.

 

[On_the_up]

half decent start by pakistan

 

[On_the_up]

jamshaid timing the ball well

 

[Dr_Bassim]

5 overs 16/0

No swing on this pitch for sure.

 

[On_the_up]

Lucky run past the slips for jamshaid

 

[imranraf]

Playing to not lose the wicket. It would be worse if they lose the wicket. Very defensive approach so far. Let's hope it works.

 

[Dr_Bassim]

17/0 6 overs

 

[Mamoon]

Customary tuk tuk

 

[imranraf]

Philander is getting some swings. But, the pitch is not doing much. Seems like a batting pitch so far.

 

[imranraf]

Morkel in to bowl now.

 

[Premier Cricketer]

Customary tuk tuk

Easy there Rick, you're going to attract the Walkers.

 

[Saj]

Slow and steady start for Pakistan.

Not much intent out there.

 

[emranabbas]

if these lot want to play at this rate, then they have to make sure they don't loose their wickets

 

[imshally81]

Need to accelerate RR....

 

[imranraf]

These batsmen are not rotating at all. Putting too much pressure on themselves.

 

[The intelligent Supporter]

India scored 8 in 1st over..JUST SAYING

 

[Saffer_XIII]

Good over by Morkel.

 

[Dr_Bassim]

18/0 7 overs

 

[The intelligent Supporter]

147 kM-H BY MORKEL..WELL PLAYED JAMSHAID

 

[imranraf]

18 without loss after 7 overs can only be considered good for a side lacking in confidence.

 

[indian_sap]

Where are the good old singles?

As the subject says, singles help batsmen settle and bowlers unsettle but unfortunately these batsmen are very poor in taking singles...tuk tuk effect I guess...someone needs to help these youngstas, high time I guess.

 

[imshally81]

Good Running

 

[imranraf]

Good running for 3.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Lambs for slaughter mentality is back on.

 

[Down2Earth]

Sky sports 3 red button has the india match as does ss3 main channel. Wth are they doing? Am I the only one having this problem?

 

[The intelligent Supporter]

3 runs..classy by Jamshaid

 

[JibranAnsari]

Ahmed shehzad has only trigger movement, no feet movent at all after that.

 

[The intelligent Supporter]

Philander to Nasir Jamshed, 3 runs, lovely shot, he's been rather good with that shot this morning and excellent running makes sure they get three.

 

[Premier Cricketer]

I could fly to Pakistan, get married, and have a kid by the time these jokers take a single.

 

[emranabbas]

This Is What Puts Pressure On The Coming Batsmen

 

[umsy]

Does anyone know if this match is being broadcast live on any UK channel?

 

[Saffer_XIII]

Shehzad has lost out on a lot of balls on the pads.

 

[Dr_Bassim]

22/0 8 overs

 

[hamzie]

kick misbah
bring a real captain who can mentor them on how not to play tuk tuk
thats it

 

[Big Mac]

Sky sports 3 red button has the india match as does ss3 main channel. Wth are they doing? Am I the only one having this problem?

I had that. Go to the tv guide and search through sports -> cricket and scroll down till you find this game and it takes you directly to the red button channel.

 

[soso_killer]

Pakistan are in a dominant position here

 

[Red Devil]

What a delivery

 

[Premier Cricketer]

Aggressive Shehzad? Only in T20 I guess.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Great delivery and no foot movement again by shehzad. Pathetic player.

 

[imranraf]

I would be so mad if they lose wicket after such a slow and defensive start.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Where is back and across movement?

 

[imranraf]

Shehzad does not look very confident out there.

 

[pak4life]

decent start if we don't lose wickets in the next 5-10 overs... but we always lose wickets!

 

[ritzy_123]

I would be so mad if they lose wicket after such a slow and defensive start.

Same thoughts

148 ks ..what the hell Morkel

 

[Extreme Pace]

This is hilarious, 2.76 RR on this pitch

 

[JibranAnsari]

If one wicket goes down under 40. Then thw start is futile.

 

[Bewal Express]

If you press the record button on sky + and then watch it that way.

 

[JibranAnsari]

This is a phatta wicket with some bounce.

 

[Saffer_XIII]

Jamshed looking pretty solid so far.

 

[syedtumair]

shehzad the aggressive stroke maker

 

[Mamoon]

Shehzad and Jamshed opening combo has yielded an average run rate of 3.56 in 11 innings together

 

[JibranAnsari]

Our kohli is so slow

 

[The intelligent Supporter]

Jamshed looking pretty solid so far.

pLZ DONT JINX HIM.....PLZ

 

[Premier Cricketer]

Blame the Indians, they took all our singles. It was a ploy from India to invite us over there and they sucked out any run-making ability our batsmen could ever make. The Devils.

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Shehzad and Jamshed opening combo has yielded an average run rate of 3.56 in 11 innings together

But they are world class

 

[Mamoon]

Where is back and across movement?

It requires precise timing, which our batsmen don't have. They either do it to early or too late. That is why most coaches at our clubs encourage batsmen to stand still.

 

[Bewal Express]

We have to accept that this is an absolute minefield and they are doing well at 3 an over. Just because the wicket is flat doesn`t make it a minefield for these guys.

 

[Ims1]

Shehzad and Jamshed opening combo has yielded an average run rate of 3.56 in 11 innings together

fact ? damn !

 

[Mamoon]

But they are world class

Yes and mature

 

[Mamoon]

fact ? damn !

Yes!

 

[Pete Rose]

such poor poor batting techniques on display. no back and across hence no chance maneuver the strike for a single.

 

[Itachi]

so slow.... -_-

getting bored.

 

[Mamoon]

Two garbage batsmen on display.

 

[Down2Earth]

I had that. Go to the tv guide and search through sports -> cricket and scroll down till you find this game and it takes you directly to the red button channel.

Which tv guide? I tried the guide button on the remote and it came up with all the channels. No option for cricket

 

[Itachi]

someone tell these two that it is an ODI, not a test.

 

[Mamoon]

This is a 270-280 pitch. The way these two open, it makes it a very uphill task for the middle-lower order to post a substantial score.

Umar and Hafeez will have to play blinders again and Misbah will have to get out of his comfort zone.

 

[imranraf]

PTV can't wait to get on the commercial break. Such a huge difference watching the game on Sky vs PTV

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Watching Shehzad bat, reminds me of how Imrul Kayes used to bat, it was so painful as he used to block and waste thirty to forty balls and score ten to twenty runs and then our middle order used to hit out and get out.

 

[Pete Rose]

50 in 17 overs and two down....thats what i think will happen

 

[imshally81]

Wicketless Powerplay....

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

What's worse is both the batsmen are playing defensively. Someone needs to be aggressive

 

[amoni]

44 dot balls in the 1st 10 overs

Completely agree.

 

[Saffer_XIII]

Pakistan not finding the gaps enough.
