South Africa vs Pakistan | 2nd ODI | Centurion | 15/3/13 | South Africa innings

[WebGuru]

Although he didn't got a wicket yet but Afridi current economy rate 3.5 is much better thn other bowlers

 

[liaqat]

Really like the look of Farhaan

Yes his looked impressive , Very much like Amla

 

[khan1992]

why are we gone all defensive again?

 

[WebGuru]

Robbie doesn't seems to be hafeez bunny anymore

 

[liaqat]

Gul's bowling has been a worry,, His going at 7+ and doesn't look like his gonna get a wicket,

 

[Bullet Drive]

146-6

 

[saiyan0312]

south africa slowly getting out of trouble.... hard to believe they were once 40 for 5

 

[WebGuru]

Behardien's maiden fifty in ODI cricket

 

[Nuekboi]

Stop playing Afridi

 

[liaqat]

My god can come one tell Misbah bring on a quick against peterson and try somethign different, 1 wicket and the bowlers come in,

it can be the difference between 200 and 240

 

[WebGuru]

Afridi: 23 runs in 7 Overs ER 3.28 and only 1 four for me it doesn't look that bad.

 

[KB-24]

Predictable captaincy from Misbah, he never changes his tactics on the fly. We are nearing defeat. All the hardwork done by Irfan is going to go to waste just like Ajmal's 5-fer was wasted against India.

 

[IMMY69]

What's happened to Afridi's variations? Slower balls, faster balls, googlees, offee?

 

[saiyan0312]

Robbie doesn't seems to be hafeez bunny anymore

Robbie should be nick named from RP to KP

 

[liaqat]

Do you remember India being 30 odd for 5 or 6 and ended up at 220 for 6


We could only get 1 wicket in the remaining overs and Dhoni scored 100,


today saffer doing a similar thing just there scoring much quicker and have a better bowling line up,

and Pak playing with 1 less batsmen,

 

[castortroy]

They will probably end up getting 220 or even 250.

 

[imranraf]

why is Misbah continuing with Shahid Afridi? He does not seem to bothering the batsmen a bit. Why not bring in Junaid or Ajmal for a couple of overs?

 

[liaqat]

When your 200 years old these things fade away, He gets the bowl to the other end thats a effort,

 

[khan1992]

Afridi: 23 runs in 7 Overs ER 3.28 and only 1 four for me it doesn't look that bad.

its good but at this moment we need a wicket ASAP

 

[Bullet Drive]

Great fielding by U.Akmal.

 

[saiyan0312]

Afridi: 23 runs in 7 Overs ER 3.28 and only 1 four for me it doesn't look that bad.

It doesnt look so bad for saffers either.... it means they have no found him threatening as they are rotating strike and not taking risk..... he should be removed bcz he has not looked like he is going to take a wicket and thus ajmal shoudl be brought in or a pacer.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Misbah spreading the field..allowing batsmen to settle. They will later cash in.

 

[WebGuru]

Let me tell you something nothing went wrong with Irfan they just wanted a better fielder in the field so they used a trick! but how often this trick is going to work?

 

[Ryankhan]

what the hell is misbah crap captain doing? bring on your fast bowlers and finish it??? what pathetic defensive approach this is....are they waiting for them to play whole 50 overs or what??

 

[Safar55]

terrible fielding from the senior senior

 

[IMMY69]

When your 200 years old these things fade away, He gets the bowl to the other end thats a effort,

Exactly! So what on earth is he doing there?

I remember that match like yesterday and we are seeing the dubbed version of it...

 

[saiyan0312]

150 crossed and so is the match winning score.... now anything above is hard to chase for us unless jamsheed pulls one.

 

[taqi]

240-250 on cards styne can handle bat as well

 

[Executioner]

17 overs remaining. 250 looks like a possibility!

 

[saiyan0312]

Exactly! So what on earth is he doing there?

Making sure they settle in and getting 200.... the situation does not require containment it requires wickets...

 

[imranraf]

This Farhaan guy looks very good. Look at his strike rate and the play he is rotating strike.

 

[pakistanalltheway]

I remember that match like yesterday and we are seeing the dubbed version of it...

That match was so frustrating to watch !

 

[saiyan0312]

240-250 on cards styne can handle bat as well

Steyn aye ga tu bat karai ga.... misbah plan is to have these guys till the last over.

 

[Bullet Drive]

151-6

 

[MJcricket]

100 more runs from this point will be a safe total.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Peterson says to Afridi 'well bowled'

 

[saiyan0312]

That match was so frustrating to watch !

Well this one is no different....

Peterson going for a hit... missed it...

 

[dhump]

100 more runs from this point will be a safe total.

50 more would be fine enough for Pakistan.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Off-spinner by Afridi

 

[saiyan0312]

Peterson batted well.. is there any bowler we have that can do the same.

 

[dhump]

afridi bowing offies what is with googlie ???

 

[saiyan0312]

50 more would be fine enough for Pakistan.

50 more pakistan isnt chasing 150 with this line up unless jamsheed clicks.

 

[saiyan0312]

.... misdirection...

 

[Safar55]

bonus boundary

 

[saiyan0312]

50 partnership comes up too.... all thanks to the 12th saffer called MISBAH UL HAQ

 

[Bullet Drive]

Great over by Afridi but Kami ruined it.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Afridi doesn't bowl his wrong-un any more.

 

[NeVerMind]

Gul back...

 

[saiyan0312]

Finally a pacer but gul... where is junaid ?????????????

 

[NeVerMind]

Irfan back in the field as well..

 

[saiyan0312]

great work saffers... the pressure is alot off...

 

[Indiafan]

Although he didn't got a wicket yet but Afridi current economy rate 3.5 is much better thn other bowlers

With the other team 6 wickets down, they were never going to hit him. His job was to pick wickets to finish of the other team

 

[saiyan0312]

up in the air and peterson hits the short and wide.....

 

[liaqat]

wat the heck gul

 

[dhump]

umar gul is such a crap bowler really.

 

[Safar55]

gul giving gifts... the fours are coming now

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

GUL...the new sami

 

[saiyan0312]

With the other team 6 wickets down, they were never going to hit him. His job was to pick wickets to finish of the other team

Summed it up...

 

[saiyan0312]

flashbacks of india vs paksitan are coming back and the bad news is india had ishant sharma and they have dale sten.

 

[Bullet Drive]

PP taken.

 

[liaqat]

This is ridiculous from our bowlers ,

Gul and misbah and Dave who are happy for the like of peterson to score easily

 

[Bullet Drive]

Great fielding by young Umar. Best fielder in PAK.

 

[Red Devil]

PP on now

 

[saiyan0312]

Ajmal is on now that power play comes.... this is misbah planning... had they not taken the powerplay misbah would have kept bowling with afridi.

 

[ViciousMachine]

all up to Ajmal again... against two set batsman.... c'mon magician!! save us again!!!

 

[KB-24]

From 62/5 to 163/6. AB is loving Misbah for his generosity of taking off the wicket takers and bringing on containers. Same old script from uninspiring skipper. Constantly lets the opposition back in the game. A belligerent knock from Jamshed will save us otherwise it's going to be 2-0 after today.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Big Thunderstorm Heading Towards The Ground

 

[parwezzkhan]

keeping for power play what a kuptaaaan

 

[saiyan0312]

peterson 32 from 50... he should have gone at zero but no misbah makes sure he will get a new high score.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Farhat
Hafeez
Younis
Misbah
Malik
Afridi
Kamran
Tanvir
Gul
Cheema
Ajmal

Above is Misbahs perfect team

 

[Red Devil]

 

[PTI tsunami]

Good over but Gul will make up for it

 

[UsmanhailsAfridi]

Gul is so clam smiling all the time

i wish he got angry once in a while....

i think clarke,dhoni and AB all agree that misbah is a legend bcz he let all three teams off when they were 4 or 5 down before hundred

gul at powerplay... so juanid and irfan is being saved for the 40th over...

<isbah has to be the crappiest captain we ever had in ODI.

 

[Red Devil]

RP loves playing against us.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Misbah is the WORST odi captain I've seen in a long time.

 

[90MPH]

Gul is so crap sometimes.

 

[liaqat]

This is a joke from Gul


only rain can save us from defeat

 

[ViciousMachine]

lol, ajmal bowls a beauty over, 1st ball next over, 4 given by gul...... brutal
