[Akmal Dynasty]

Ahmed showing his class here. Duckworth is holding back this great potential.

 

[Rizie]

Nazir had a glove on it

this is brainless cricket from kundrata. bowling too much on the leg and no ajmal. What more can you expect when your captain is samaraweera

I see leading them if they lose 1 or 2 more games under sameeraweera.

lol had he not been bowled, that wouldve been another missed stumping

 

[Ibad17]

Shehzad gone..

 

[KingKhanWC]

Decent innings by Shehzad.

47 from 42 needed, NN looking very comfortable.

 

[blackanhyellow]

Nazir blasted the bowlers all over the park today. But to be honest he batted like a monkey.. the keeper missed two easy stumpings. And Nazir still charged at the bowler very next ball, and he played and missed alot. In international cricket keepers like Dhoni and AB dev. are not going to give him free chances like this. Nazir needs to improve his shot selection.

Pakistan have used this tactic regularly. Ajmal is capable of picking up wickets at any time and for new batsmen coming out towards the end v Ajmal is very difficult but yes they have left it too late here, not enough runs to chase down.

Misbah just threw the ball into his own face



llinfacepalm:

 

[Ibad17]

Nagas are cruising here. Just 14 more to win.

[Akmal Dynasty]

Need 1 now.

 

[Akmal Dynasty]

Nagas win.

 

[Ibad17]

Nagas won the match with 2 balls to spare

I didn't see it, but it was most likely Urdu and not Hindi. Besides what were you really expecting him to speak Sinhalese or Tamil?

It is interesting , Premadasa is the relatively better pitch than the other 2 for batting . New ball swing is the only common factor in all.
Lack of spin on this pitch is very surprising. There was no turn in matches played last month against India and Pak.
Next few matches are at Pallekele , expect Dilshan and the likes to fail on those. Afridi and Ajmal will do a lot better on that pitch.

first of all it was a typo. 2nd of all I expected him to speak english. Its not like the main viewers, lankans, wll understand urdu. Or maybe they do?

we bangbros are familiar with urdu/hindi

 

[iZeeshan]

Wow, seeing Nazir/Shehzad open together must have been quite a sight.

Do they have highlights for these?
