Sri Lanka v Pakistan | 1st ODI | August 23, 2014 | Hambantota | Pakistan Innings

[Sakss]

So 276 to chase in 45 overs..Can Pakistan do this?

 

[mosh101]

Will get trashed here !

Malinga for MOM !

 

[Sam18696]

Nope

 

[jattafridi]

I think pakistan will score 234

 

[Sam18696]

All out under 200

 

[Jabo]

Pak 182 all out

 

[jattafridi]

Motm Mathews for sure

 

[Hamza_]

Chase of 276 in 45 Overs with Hafeez, Musbah, Fawad and YK all in one line up? Dare I say, Sharjeel would have provided some attack upfront in chase.

 

[razabbas]

We have lost this match 276 from 270 balls

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Hopefully we can see a matchwinning 200 from Younis

 

[saadsahabjee]

Kindly misbah dont show your idiotness again and play fawad at 3 or 4

 

[Madplayer]

no they cant.

i said one thing in the other thread. sl lost early wickets but still scored at a good rate. that ensured that they were 85-4 after 18 overs as opposed to 40-4 which would have put even more pressure on their batsmen. u just cant afford to go into a shell after losing a couple of early wickets.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Keep faith in our Team guys. Aane do . We are gonna chase this down within 36 overs

 

[saiyan0312]

Guys we all better get used to it. This is the future without ajmal as ajmal more often then not can keep it crazy tight in death and can get wickets.

You forgot Shahzad

 

[Love Pakistan]

Shehzad needs to score big...

 

[Afridi96]

[MENTION=133998]Azzurri[/MENTION] He ain't rubbish, he's quite good.

 

[Straight_Drive]

two of my bowlers in fantasy league team did well...glad i didn't pick junaid...time for malinga and herath to weave their magic and i will score even more points ...although misbah and younis should also score a few cause i have them as well

 

[style_guru]

Wrist slitting at it's best here!!

 

[world cup captain]

Pakistan to win.

 

[Markhor]

If there's one team you can't rely on to chase 250+ its Pakistan. Would love to be proved wrong but this is too familiar - top-order gets out cheaply, middle-order go into their shell and RRR becomes too high, batting collapse, game over.

Let's at least show some fight.

 

[menace2society]

Wahab is now here to stay.

 

[jattafridi]

Nothing is impossible but this teams sucks

 

[Mr Consistent]

tough task for pak

 

[Jabo]

u just cant afford to go into a shell after losing a couple of early wickets.

which is exactly what pakistan do

 

[hussain.r97]

While our bowling in the death was pathetic, other than Wahab Riaz to some extent, I blame Misbah's poor captaincy. When we had Sri Lanka down and at 4 down, he should've continued attacking with pace, instead he brings on spin. A)None of our spinners our specialists. B)This is a bad spin bowling track. Same old over defensive captaincy from Misbah.

 

[jattafridi]

Atleast play positive from the 1st over

 

[Madplayer]

if this was a 50 over game i would have said 70-30 in favour of sl. but now its 90-10 in sl favour

 

[razabbas]

Which indian channel is telecasting this series ?

 

[Swanny]

Relax guys umar, maqsood,afridi will win it for us

 

[ExplicitAI]

We need to see some subliminal boundary hitting from Shehzad here.

 

[mosh101]

Kohli & Mr. Blessed-in-all-facets to open !

 

[AnasK]

With new field rules, this score was always expected. Junaid had a bad day. Pakistan can get this score if they remain positive. But you never know, what will happen. Historically, Pakistan are not good at all in chasing but hopes are high. If we get good start we have a chance. Hopefully

 

[Straight_Drive]

Which indian channel is telecasting this series ?

i am not watching...but must be on Ten cricket cause the tests were shown on that channel

 

[razabbas]

I hope no selfish 50 from shehzad again

 

[pakistani pride]

Some of these lankans look terrible in shape.

look at malinga huge belly.
should smack him.

bowling 130 ks !!!

 

[hussain.r97]

Fawad's over was the turning point in th batting...

 

[JibranAnsari]

Ahmed's ugly shuffling

hate his technique.

 

[aukhan]

:4 good shot

 

[razabbas]

 

[mosh101]

Classy four from kohli

 

[Madplayer]

 

[jattafridi]

What a shot

 

[ExplicitAI]

lovely shot

 

[Mr Consistent]

:4 by shahzad

 

[Madplayer]

this match depends on how well they rotate strike

 

[ExplicitAI]

Number 1 all rounder facing the new ball

 

[Mir jibran]

we need a big 100 from one of the openers

 

[saeedhk]

No.

 

[Jabo]

3-YK
5-Misbah
6-Alam

if that is how they bat then

Alam should be 3/4

Maqsood coming in at 7 is stupid, he's already turning into a slogger and when Misbah leaves the RR creeping to 10 with his batting that's what Maqsood is going to do

 

[ExplicitAI]

this match depends on how well they rotate strike

That will never happen with the middle order batsmen in this lineup

 

[razabbas]

last time we made kula and thisra ATG lets see what will happen today

 

[ExplicitAI]

Lovely shot that from Hafeez

 

[Sunny786]

We have lost this match 276 from 270 balls

Pak 182 all out

All out under 200

Will get trashed here !

Malinga for MOM !

Wrist slitters everywhere

 

[razabbas]

That will never happen with the middle order batsmen in this lineup

Exactly it all depends on opening partnership if 2 wickets fell early then our batsman will forgot that they have to chase a big total they will go for 176 instead of 276

 

[saiyan0312]

kula getting some fine swing and seam. That is awesome stuff.

 

[razabbas]

Anyways chasing big totals is good practice for us it will help us in WC and we can terst our bench strength that how good they are (fawad , maqsood and all)

 

[ExplicitAI]

Exactly it all depends on opening partnership if 2 wickets fell early then our batsman will forgot that they have to chase a big total they will go for 176 instead of 276

This entire lineup is unbalanced but Misbah said that this series is just to see where the team stands before the WC.

 

[Madplayer]

malinga is so unfit

 

[razabbas]

This entire lineup is unbalanced but Misbah said that this series is just to see where the team stands before the WC.

LEts see what will happen i just dont want YK to perform

 

[razabbas]

 

[saiyan0312]

smashed the width

 

[Mr Consistent]

 

[ExplicitAI]

Great shot that

 

[razabbas]

Another

 

[saiyan0312]

more. well done shezad.

 

[Nuekboi]

We're only getting fours. No rotation of strike

 

[Mr Consistent]

top shot chokaa

 

[Madplayer]

shehzad hitting fours but not taking singles

 

[ExplicitAI]

Another one!

 

[Sunny786]

Good shot by

 

[Mir jibran]

We're only getting fours. No rotation of strike

that's the problem with these guys they just don't know how to get singles

 

[Arsal_AK]

Damn! Those shots by Shehzad.

 

[ExplicitAI]

Hafeez looking a little shaky.

 

[Mir jibran]

shehzad will score a quickfire innings of 30 to 50

 

[Justcrazy]

Hafeez looking a little shaky.

He always is shaky

 

[Madplayer]

hafeez living dangerously

 

[saiyan0312]

Hafeez wont last long if this continues.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Anwar sque Swing By Nuwan Kula

 

[ExplicitAI]

He always is shaky

Didn't look shaky against SL in 2013
