South Africa vs Pakistan 2nd ODI: 1st Innings

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

inzi in now - need to up the tempo

 

[Serendipity]

MAshAllAH, a fighting knock from YK, WELL DONE BOY

 

[aamir]

Selfless play there by YK, MoYo put some pressure on him there.

Well played.

 

[12thMan]

what's wrong with Inzi's leftelbow. he has a wrap on it

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

Inzi comes in ahead of the other big hitters.

i'd say a wise choice

 

[TheSaint]

Inzi in - good move as we have enough overs.
But Malik needs to be sent down the order now- the other three need to come in after this.

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

moyo has to pick up his rate now - he has played the anchor role well but must open up with about 15 overs left

 

[161]

well i hope both inzi and moyo get on with it ... we need minimum of 350 here..

 

[Raz]

Inzi taking his time to get going, gets off the mark with a single through the covers

205-3 after 35 overs

 

[TheSaint]

Yousuf should now start and go for the kill after an over or two.

 

[tahaqureshi]

Yousuf's half century very close..

 

[Sparhawk]

Should inzi have been the next man in? we have three guys waiting who can score really fast....

 

[CricketBuff]

Inzi settling down now, no hurry.

 

[Serendipity]

Crucial 6-10 overs for Pak now before the final push, tiem to play sensibly but increase teh run rate as well

 

[DotCom]

Inzy will now slow things down... .300 will be about it ...Inzy not running either ..

 

[Raz]

HUGE appeal for lbw, Inzi shuffles across but hit outside the line. Not out

 

[Raz]

Pushed through the covers off the backfoot for a single.

 

[Sparhawk]

Yousuf needs to pick it up now, inzi is prob gonna take a few overs to settle in. And we can't afford to waste overs here.

 

[CricketBuff]

Should inzi have been the next man in? we have three guys waiting who can score really fast....

We have enough overs. Those three guys will have their chance !

 

[WasimG]

See we have no desire of making 392 or even 400 like SA. If we make over 300 we'll be satisfied with ourselves.

 

[Hash]

shame about Younis but well played. A selfless way to get out. I think we all know what Sachin would have done if he got into the 90s.

 

[Raz]

Run rate has slowed down a bit since Inzi has come in.

 

[Hash]

See we have no desire of making 392 or even 400 like SA. If we make over 300 we'll be satisfied with ourselves.

I know. Absolute disgrace from Pakistan. We should be scoring 750 from 50 overs.

 

[Serendipity]

Tiem for Moyo to convert his start but he is no slogger so it will be all about timing and ocassional attemps to charge or pull etc

 

[CricketBuff]

Inzi plays like an old man !!

 

[Raz]

207-3 after 36

84 balls left in the innings.

 

[zaf1986]

Inzi plays like an old man !!

Bowling O M R W Econ
SM Pollock 8.4 1 45 1 5.19
M Ntini 6 1 35 0 5.83
A Nel 5 0 32 0 6.40
CK Langeveldt 7 0 39 1 5.57 (1nb, 1w)
JH Kallis 3 0 21 0 7.00 (1w)
GC Smith 6 0 29 1 4.83

 

[DotCom]

Malik wont get a bat one feels...

 

[Zaman Park]

Afridi should have come in now instead of Inzamam.

 

[Pathan007]

last 3overs 6runs and 1wkt.

 

[Easa]

Ideal situation would be if these two can take the score to about 260 by the 43rd/44th over, and our hitters come in and really give it a blast.

 

[Raz]

Smith to continue

 

[Raz]

Inzi attempts the sweep but fails to make contact

 

[Salman]

207-3 after 36

84 balls left in the innings.

I think 330+ could be not so easy to reach if these two play test match mode...

 

[PlanetPakistan]

slight lull in the innings....i feel Yousuf should now go for big shots!

 

[Easa]

I know. Absolute disgrace from Pakistan. We should be scoring 750 from 50 overs.

) ) )

I sometimes wonder what is running through people's heads when they make comments like that.

 

[Sparhawk]

I think Yousuf can hit a boundary an over without slogging, its all about class!

Woah!!! Inzi aint wasting any more time.. magnificent six!!!

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

inzi comes to life - charges smith and a big 6!!!!!

 

[DotCom]

SA over rate quite slow ..

and if CARNAGE begins with the BEASTS ... SA skipper will get a FINE !!!

 

[Raz]

Down the track and smashes over long on for a HUGE six!!! Inzi at his best!!

 

[SUPERSAMI]

Big 6, from big inzi

 

[12thMan]

big six by inzi

 

[Serendipity]

Yes, tiem to play selflessly here but intelligently no slogs but good low percentage high scoriong shots

 

[Raz]

Stumping and caught behind appeals, both denied

 

[dinakar]

Inzi too can go for big shots. I don't think all his aggression has drained away..

 

[DotCom]

THAT WAS MASSIVE ...

Smith says some words to Inzy after his missed sweep .. then INZY lifts it into the stands, 50 rows BACK !!

 

[Raz]

214-3 after 37 overs

 

[Nice-N-Fresh]

I think 330+ could be not so easy to reach if these two play test match mode...

They will slowly but shurely accelerate. And make a 320 plus i feel. With three big hitters sitting padded up, it shouldnt be any problem from here..

 

[Pathan007]

last 4overs 13runs 1wkt

 

[12thMan]

7 runs of the over
214-3 after 37

 

[Lightning]

Pak need to really push on now. Aim high, over 330.

 

[deviously~fading~away]

I hope Inzi and moyo are not hoping for magic from the big hitters, they need to score some quick runs themselves

 

[Toony™®]

i think pak need at least 320.

214/3 after 37

 

[WasimG]

I know. Absolute disgrace from Pakistan. We should be scoring 750 from 50 overs.

You do realize that his team chased down 434 vs Aus last year right? And just scored 392 against us in the last match?

 

[Serendipity]

I sometimes wonder what is running through people's heads when they make comments like that.

Classic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! should be saved this... )

 

[Raz]

Afridi padded up, probably coming in next.

 

[Raz]

Single to long on by Yousuf

 

[SUPERSAMI]

Moyo needs to turn it on, Pak has plenty of batting in the dressing room.

 

[Raz]

Inzi hits it hard to long on but just a single taken.

 

[Easa]

What a 6 by the old man.

 

[Raz]

Appeal from Pollock from lbw but not out, height was an issue

 

[Ahmad]

You do realize that his team chased down 434 vs Aus last year right? And just scored 392 against us in the last match?

So Punk man, you reckon anything less than 434 and we lose?

 

[Raz]

Yousuf gets his 50, well played

 

[SUPERSAMI]

50 for Moyo, 52nd of his career, now get 50 of 17 to complete the 100.

 

[Pathan007]

last 5over 20runs 1wkt

 

[tahaqureshi]

FOUR by inzi

 

[Raz]

Cut away by the old man and the old man gets a 4. What a shot from the old man!!

 

[SUPERSAMI]

4 for Inzi

 

[Sparhawk]

50 from yousuf, well played big man.

Four more to inzi... this is what we need!

 

[Raz]

221-3 after 38

 

[Easa]

Inzamam cuts it away from 4, the old man scoring nicely.

 

[Raz]

Nel back into the attack

 

[Serendipity]

Well made 50, well done MoYo

Mashallah, carry on now, lets increase teh RR alittle here

 

[Raz]

Single taken off the first ball, dab to third man

 

[Pathan007]

runt out inzi

 

[Sparhawk]

Inzi out..... run out.... oh boy

single wasnt on inzi bhai....

 

[SUPERSAMI]

Inzi runout, dang

 

[Raz]

Inzi run out!!! Comes down the track was going nowhere, no run was on there.

 

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

inzi run out
