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

[Dr_Bassim]

And Shehzad out.

Now watch a fest with Misbah and Fawad.

Can't have both in the same team.

 

[saiyan0312]

bowled shezad gone on 49. Perera gets him and now comes the misbah and fawad combo.

 

[Ikball]

Poor shehzad he deserved a 100 here. Good effort though.

 

[Dios]

Match over for Pakistan.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Well played. When seniors failed the young kid stood up. Unlucky. Good ball.

 

[Shafi]

Match is over!!!!!

 

[saiyan0312]

Shezad was needed soo much and he looked so dejected over there. Good value the wicket and hundreds,

Cmon fawad and misbah

 

[m.shah]

Game done

 

[Chickenkorma]

missing a straight ball on the stumps.

who says our youngsters don't learn from seniors? Hafeez has taught us well!!

 

[Bilal7]

Shezzy gone but well played. Time for some hustle by our very own hustler.

 

[Donal Cozzie]

And Shehzad out.

Now watch a fest with Misbah and Fawad.

Can't have both in the same team.

Yup. You're right

That said I look forward to 9 threads with stats about how Shehzads tuk tuk ruined the chase

 

[Da_Future_Knick]

Good innings from Shehzad, Looked good in patches. Added pressure with Misbah tuk tuk then slog last ball

 

[JibranAnsari]

hORRIBLE HORRIBLE TECHNIQUE.. GOT LBW OUT IN THE TESTS LIKE THIS BUT CAN'T HELP SHUFFLING. i AM DISGUSTED.

 

[junaid.ahmed]

hahahahaha another technician gone

 

[Madplayer]

falling like a pack of cards now..

pathetic. shehzad was actually looking good and for once was rotating the strike well.

 

[GreenKnightRises]

Sir Garfield Thisara Sobers in at Pakistani line up yet again.

 

[Da_Future_Knick]

Fawad and Misbah will win us this match

 

[steelo green]

What a ball. Shehzad just got beat by a great ball.

 

[Barragan]

Fawad and Misbah together will be fun to watch.

 

[coy0607]

classic Misbah start.. RRR at over 7 and Misbah has 6 off 13

 

[Madplayer]

Yup. You're right

That said I look forward to 9 threads with stats about how Shehzads tuk tuk ruined the chase

what tuk tuk. he scored at a very healty strike rate

 

[Dios]

Fawad is too skinny.

 

[Straight_Drive]

How can pakistan even hope to win the world cup with this pathetic batting line up.....ODI is a batsman's game

 

[Bullet Drive]

Come on Fawad.

 

[Da_Future_Knick]

Need a big partnership here

 

[ExplicitAI]

 

[Bilal7]

Such an ugly stance though.

 

[cricket083]

Finges crossed

 

[Chickenkorma]

look it's drunk chanderpaul at the crease

 

[Moe]

Wth ptcl connection? I thought Fawad got out

 

[saiyan0312]

Fawad off the mark.

 

[Mir jibran]

lalbazar. u?

Baghat barzulla

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Fawad really looks ugly.

I can't help staring at him every time he bats.

But he is a better version of Misbah as far as 100's are concerned lol.

 

[Madplayer]

look it's drunk chanderpaul at the crease

looks like he can get his legs in a tangle anytime

 

[junaid.ahmed]

so before 100 four gone
marching towards another loss with some respect

 

[saiyan0312]

25 overs left and over 180 runs to get. Misbah needs to explode here.

 

[Ryankhan]

well sad to see them in this state again . hope fawad plays a blinder here and rescues us. this is the time for him to shine again. similar innings is required from his but that time he was batting first and this time we are chasing if he does well here. he should be batting up the order. this was nice way for counter attack to had afridi come in

 

[Lords]

On a side note, why are the stadiums always so empty in SL. There is a good opposition and you have a good team so why not watch the game live.

Even in SLPL the stadiums were empty. Not that SL gets too many sunny days when they play cricket.

 

[Bilal7]

Kya kar rahe ho, Misbah bhai?

He's frustrating when he plays like this in these situations.

 

[Madplayer]

Baghat barzulla

nice area

 

[Mamoon]

Fawad really looks ugly.

I can't help staring at him every time he bats.

But he is a better version of Misbah as far as 100's are concerned lol.

His mustache and the way his hair stick out of his helmet don't help either.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Well this game is Gone , collective effort from pakistan once again.

 

[saiyan0312]

Fawad making misbah run. Pushed him alot.

 

[Haroon786]

WTH has happened to Alam's stance ?

It's gone to the dogs.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Fawad looks very good.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Fawad is a natural at strike rotation.

 

[Mr Consistent]

pak 99-4

 

[saiyan0312]

That was well played but fielder stopped it.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Cannot believe YK makes the team ahead of Haris Sohail

 

[Barragan]

Fawad Alam is 28/29 and Chisty called him a "youngster".

But then again, shafiq and azhar are also considered youngsters.

 

[Madplayer]

different approach by pak today. both batting and bowling failed as opposed to only batting.

 

[Mir jibran]

nice area

than kilo

 

[DrSchultz]

Fawad looks like a truck driver but bats like a champion!

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Lol I honestly agree.

His stance has got worse since I last saw him.

 

[Chickenkorma]

Fawad looks very good.

in what way?

physically he looks like a ghissa huwa jharooo

stance wise he looks like chanderpaul after a jagermeister

 

[Mr Consistent]

100 up for pak

 

[Haroon786]

His mustache and the way his hair stick out of his helmet don't help either.

Very important indeed.

 

[96NotOut]

100 finally up. :/

 

[lameduck]

On a side note, why are the stadiums always so empty in SL. There is a good opposition and you have a good team so why not watch the game live.

Even in SLPL the stadiums were empty. Not that SL gets too many sunny days when they play cricket.

Would have been much different if the game was in Colombo. It's been played in hambantota. Which is a city currently being newly constructed at a rural side in SL.

 

[leatherface58]

DAT SR

 

[Fastandfurious]

Fawad's a good athlete.

 

[saiyan0312]

RRR 7.40 ,... We are in big trouble.

 

[Mamoon]

Aesthetics are important for me.

 

[Donal Cozzie]

in what way?

physically he looks like a ghissa huwa jharooo

stance wise he looks like chanderpaul after a jagermeister

Looks a bit like a preying mantis.

Not lying I didnt even know a stance like that existed

 

[Chickenkorma]

misbah's SR

 

[junaid.ahmed]

Fawad making misbah run. Pushed him alot.

miss bah will push him out of the team soon

 

[uberkoen]

Let the Misbah bashing start!

 

[Dr_Bassim]

If the ball swings a little inside, Fawad will always struggle.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Fawad should bat ahead of Misbah ul

 

[Chickenkorma]

Looks a bit like a preying mantis.

Not lying I didnt even know a stance like that existed

hahaha that's a perfect way to describe it

 

[ammar93]

These two shouldn't be playing together lol.

 

[Shafi]

Captain's knock 9 of 19 by Mishbah. RR over 7.5

 

[Fastandfurious]

Aesthetics are important for me.

Too bad, they don't show up on the stat sheet.

 

[Bullet Drive]

If the ball swings a little inside, Fawad will always struggle.

Focus on positive.

 

[Madplayer]

misbah just wants the RRR to shoot up to his lucky no. i.e. 10 and then he will hit 10-20 sixes and win the match easily.

 

[Haroon786]

Lol I honestly agree.

His stance has got worse since I last saw him.

Against a fast bowler he wouldn't have time to move his front foot, I think he's dead meat against any quality pace bowler.

 

[CricketCartoons]

required run rate 7.5. at the crease, misbah and fawad alam. exciting times!

 

[Mr Consistent]

 

[saiyan0312]

by misbah. we need alot of that.

 

[Moe]

Dat catch
