[Bullet Drive]

Birt in.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Looked close, maybe middle legish.

 

[chui_kadoo]

There you go . WHAT DID I SAY

 

[adnan yasin]

he again moving way too much at the crease

 

[chui_kadoo]

plumb. Ahmed Shezad duck. Thats what happens when you leave out Imran Nazir

 

[sada90]

duck for Shehzad
..
so we should start pakistani players performance thread for SLPL lol

 

[chui_kadoo]

Stupid idiots served right for leaving out the main man

 

[chui_kadoo]

Imran Nazir must be back now. How on earth he was left out is bloody beyond me

 

[Bullet Drive]

Want Birt to fail so Nazir plays

 

[chui_kadoo]

Hope they have egg on their face

 

[chui_kadoo]

Want Birt to fail so Nazir plays

Shezad out. Imran Nazir in

 

[Bullet Drive]

Shehzad & Nazir will hopefully open for them next game..

 

[Down2Earth]

overrated cross bat slogger gone for a golden duck

 

[chui_kadoo]

I cant believe I called it right. I said Ahmed Shezad to get a duck and there you go. A big fat 0

 

[Bullet Drive]

Shezad out. Imran Nazir in

After one innings? Come on. If Nazir got out first ball you'd want him to have another chance right?

Both should play together next game. I want Birt to fail.

 

[adnan yasin]

11-1 in 2 overs

 

[chui_kadoo]

If they lose they only have them selves to blame for picking the wrong team

 

[Nazir_ Rules]

11-1 after 2

 

[chui_kadoo]

After one innings? Come on. If Nazir got out first ball you'd want him to have another chance right?

Both should play together next game. I want Birt to fail.

That was poor. Awful footwork. How on earth did he miss that one. All I know Imran Nazir has to come in.

 

[chui_kadoo]

Come on Birt. Its time to get out now

 

[rizan]

Espn not whowing this match y is that?

 

[Nazir_ Rules]

[chui_kadoo]

Espn not whowing this match y is that?

They are showing the 2nd game live

 

[Nazir_ Rules]

Another 4, 23-1 after 3 overs

 

[Bullet Drive]

12 off the over.

 

[adnan yasin]

12 of the over . brings Nagas on top

 

[chui_kadoo]

Birt is playing well. He wont be dropped folks

 

[pakcricketfan]

I cant believe I called it right. I said Ahmed Shezad to get a duck and there you go. A big fat 0

)

Koi baat nahi bhai... hota hai. :ahmed

 

[Bullet Drive]

That was poor. Awful footwork. How on earth did he miss that one. All I know Imran Nazir has to come in.

It was his first ball. Footwork of even the best isn't up to the mark first ball. Nazir & Shehzad should play next game.

Riaz on.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Great bowling by Riaz!

 

[Asif321]

travis is a very gud player

 

[Bullet Drive]

2 runs to Birt!

 

[chui_kadoo]

It was his first ball. Footwork of even the best isn't up to the mark first ball. Nazir & Shehzad should play next game.

Riaz on.

All I know is that Imran Nazir is a must. Im still fuming for him being left out.

 

[chui_kadoo]

come on Wahab. Get those yorker in

 

[chui_kadoo]

Hopefully Afridi can take a few wickets

 

[Bullet Drive]

Amazing over! I like these commies. Deano supports Pakistan players a lot!

 

[adnan yasin]

It was his first ball. Footwork of even the best isn't up to the mark first ball. Nazir & Shehzad should play next game.

Riaz on.

Problem is ... he always do like this .. and its not like his footwork gets better as he progresses .. he play like this only and its the reason of his downfall...because he loses his balls ... he cramped himself when he has to play on the off side ..

he looked better in BPL because he was not moving there so much

hopefully he scores in next games to come .. but consistently matters

 

[Bullet Drive]

Afridi isn't so good vs lefties.

 

[adnan yasin]

Can afridi be a waste when 2 lefties are on strike ?

 

[adnan yasin]

4 from afridi 1st over

31/1 in 5 overs

 

[Nazir_ Rules]

Good over again, Afridi got some spin.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Great over by Boom Boom!

 

[Bullet Drive]

I'd bowl Afridi with right handers out ther.

 

[12cavalry]

Good first over from Wahab.

Unlucky this time. Gets hit for a four

 

[Bullet Drive]

Riaz is bowling amazingly well out there. Definitely 90mph +

 

[Nazir_ Rules]

Riaz bowling well so far.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Riaz seems unplayable!

 

[Nazir_ Rules]

5 off it, 36-1

 

[Nazir_ Rules]

Birt 18*

 

[Bullet Drive]

Nazir is a much better option than Birt.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Brilliant fielding by Boom Boom!

 

[Bullet Drive]

91 from 80 now.

 

[Bullet Drive]

This LakSHITha guy isn't all that!

 

[TalhaSyed]

Just put & on and see what they can do

 

[TalhaSyed]

RR arent gonna win if NN manage to Bat the 20 overs. They need to get them out

 

[Bullet Drive]

8 overs of RR's best bowlers left.

 

[Bullet Drive]

game out of reach now unless Afridi does some magic..

 

[Bullet Drive]

52 partnership now..

 

[Bullet Drive]

55-1

 

[Bullet Drive]

Nagenahira Nagas require another 80 runs with 9 wickets and 12 overs

 

[Nazir_ Rules]

55-1 , don't know why Afridi was taken out of the attack in the first place.

 

[Riff]

where the hell is Imran Nazir?

Ahmad Shahzad has been picked ahead of him

Good thing our selectors have more sense that these buffoons

 

[Bullet Drive]

Hate these time outs

 

[Nazir_ Rules]

Easy going for the Nagas, Royals need atleast 3-4 more quick wickets to put any pressure on them .

 

[Bullet Drive]

Come on Ruhuna!!!

 

[TalhaSyed]

Anyone else think its funny that after all the issues Waqar is coaching Afridis team

 

[Bullet Drive]

major!

 

[chui_kadoo]

Ahmad Shahzad has been picked ahead of him

Good thing our selectors have more sense that these buffoons

Exactly. I said at the start that Ahmed Shezad will get a big fat duck and guess what. He got one. How on earth was Imran left out in the first place is beyond me. I am glad the selectors saw some sense

 

[Bullet Drive]

Now bring on Afridi!

 

[chui_kadoo]

yes a wicket

 

[Bullet Drive]

Nagas still have Matthews & Mushfiq...... but Afridi can rip through em!

 

[Bullet Drive]

Exactly. I said at the start that Ahmed Shezad will get a big fat duck and guess what. He got one. How on earth was Imran left out in the first place is beyond me. I am glad the selectors saw some sense

Calm down now, you've gone on about it since the last 2 and a half hours. Its happened now. You cannot change it.

I agree Imran should have been selected. Hopefully they will have learnt.

 

[Bullet Drive]

2 off the last ball. 58-2 after 9. Hopefully Afridi will come on now.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Afridi or Gayle? The most valuable T20 player?

 

[Bullet Drive]

Boom Boom onto bowl. he has 3 left.

 

[Riff]

I cant believe I called it right. I said Ahmed Shezad to get a duck and there you go. A big fat 0

Cant believe people want this slogger playing for Pakistan

 

[Bullet Drive]

Beauty from Afridi!

 

[Bullet Drive]

Afridi angry with the keeper

 

[Nazir_ Rules]

62-2 after 10

 

[Bullet Drive]

73 from 60. 6 overs of top bowlers for Ruhuna. Need 4 cheap overs to go.
