Sri Lanka v Pakistan | 1st ODI | Dambulla | 30/7/09 [PAK inns]

[HaMmy FinE LeG StriKeR]

ya all know all from the very inception of the game, what can happen ) ) )

good day pakistanis, till now, wastage of time

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

Disagree, I think he'll score some runs today.

My hopes are on Afridi and Fawad

Anyhow C'MON PAK - we can still win this game

Pak 52-3

 

[Fallen King]

so you thought you should jinx also.....

I don't believe jinx. Just trying to support him because we have no batsman left after Misbah and Fawad.

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

yusuf cant surly bowl, he cant field, now he cant even bat!!

surely a worthy batsman.......

Do us a favour and go play in traffic

 

[x2zee123]

shahid afridi is not the key here.. he is the master key

 

[Disco_Lemonade]

we need 100 run partnership..

 

[muhammad.kamran]

dont believe in jinx nonsense

We are 3 wickets down due to decent bowling and bad batting

have u said nonsense to me....????

 

[McBoom]

I think it's about time Sarfraz gets a run. Akmal's had a 100 odi's now and he still averages in the mid-20's. Couple that with his terrible glovework and it's a travesty that Sarfraz hasn't got a proper run yet.

Agreed. Akmal just flops and flops and when ever he is about to get dropped he pulls an Ijaz.

 

[muhammad.kamran]

we need 100 run partnership..

very high expectations from this Pak team....

 

[FM87]

Pakistanis always play like that. They always give away their wickets easily. How many times have we seen any good opening partnership? You can count them on your fingers. We need a good inning by any single player to win this game, as usual...otherwise they will lose again, as usual...

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

have u said nonsense to me....????

I said jinx is nonsense

Back to the game

PAK 55-3

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

444444444444444444

YK with a lucky shot

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

PAK 61-3 after 14 overs

 

[Fallen King]

Fine shot, but looked like risky though.

FOUR!

Fine shot - Younus Khan!

 

[mali9]

are you the same people who were jumping last month when we won t2o wc. lloll kay hoya jay hun just shut up and watch cricket and suport your team dont be like indians when you are winning you start jumping up and down and when it comes to losing you people start criticising your own team.. o yaar for god sake just support pakistan

 

[FM87]

14 dot balls in the last 4 overs.

 

[Disco_Lemonade]

very high expectations from this Pak team....

well always aim high

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

Malinga back into the attack

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

666666666666666666666

Afridi smacks Malinga

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

Congrats to Afridi on getting his 250th 6 in ODI's

 

[Khabri420]

oh BOOM BOOM! What six off Malinga

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

Loved that shot - just swats it away

 

[the_game]

Fantastic six by Afridi.

 

[Fallen King]

well always aim high

Good to know that you are not high. Sounded like suspicious

Fine Shot! SIX

Shahid Khan Afridi is on the roll. He needs to calm down and be patient.

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

PAK 68-3

RRR is 4.6 which is decent - these two need to keep the partnership going

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

That cake does look canny

 

[x2zee123]

lmao dat old guy cutting the cake told dem to clap lol

 

[MIG]

Sensible display by Afridi - six and then takes a single.

 

[MIG]

No reverse sweeps from YK, I hope !

Both should get us to 150+

 

[fawad_wellwisher]

Ramiz never at a loss for words!

 

[muhammad.kamran]

PAK 68-3

RRR is 4.6 which is decent - these two need to keep the partnership going

every batsman should....and they should think of the team as a whole

 

[MIG]

Anybody's game ... this partnership is vital

 

[MIG]

Ramiz never at a loss for words!

To my knowledge, he has 30 words in his vocab. He uses them in different combinations.

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

Murali to bowl now - watch out for the YK reverse sweep

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

LBW shout turned down

Afridi a tad lucky there

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

Pak 71-3

 

[Big Mac]

Afridi a bit lucky, I think that's out

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

YK chases a wide one - not sure if he touched it BUT appeal turned down

 

[shane]

To laugh at wrist-slitters like you.


Haha

Please stop name-calling. You can understand why people are frustrated with this Pakistan team and different people show that disappointment in different ways (some get angry while others bottle it up). This forum provides a chance to vent. If you dont like reading negative comments then dont read them.

I suppose he is venting at people who vent

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

OUT

AFRIDI gone - that was a rubbish shot

 

[MIG]

Let the games begin.

Pls pls Pakistan dont carry that rubbish batting form into ODIS !!!

 

[TaZ]

another gifted wicket

 

[the true passionist]

lost his cool, and paves my way to sleep.

 

[Disco_Lemonade]

what was he trying to do :s

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Out now. Bad shot. Need Yk to get a century now and bat out the 50 overs.

 

[Genghis]

silly shot by Afridi ... he's gone!

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

PAK 73-4

Frustrating because its some poor shots that have us in this position

Misbah is out in the middle - badly out of form, lets see what he can do

 

[TaZ]

16.3
Thushara to Shahid Afridi, OUT, an awful shot to get out, Afridi had looked in good touch till then

Shahid Afridi c †Sangakkara b Thushara 27 (28b 1x4 1x6) SR: 96.42

 

[pak4life]

here comes our saviour

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

Misbah off the mark with a single

 

[Fallen King]

He was settled. Why did he has to play stupid shot? Yet he complains about captaincy he doesn't deserve. I am really disappointed. He could have easily had fine inning today. He had chance to prove today and he blew it. That is great.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Need 100 run partnership then we will win

 

[HaMmy FinE LeG StriKeR]

now we expect from misbah a good one, rubbish, fawad should have been called on to bat.

 

[moz]

74-4, Fawad is the man to guide us home, if he digs in, we can get there....

 

[coca-cola]

beautiful shot by afridi...georgeous...handsomely cut away .... staright to the dressing room...

People can get frustrated without the name calling. Branding an entire team pathetic (twice) is over the top and immature, especially since the majority of people (as well as that same poster, I'm sure) were creaming themselves a month ago.

Now we're pathetic? I'm sorry but that IS wrist-slitting of the highest order.

 

[PapaBear]

Self destruct button has been pressed, this is all too familiar, there is something wrong with this team which has nothing to do with cricket, if you know what I mean,
Fire intikhab, I dont like his team selection. he cant coach batsmen, he is clueless, it seems same mistakes are being repeated by batsmen,

haing said that Sri Lanka is a better side, they have outplayed Pakistan, for sure

chalo jee ho jao shurro...pakistan nai 20 over kehlay nahi aur saath hi judge saab apna verdict dey rahay hai...shabash

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

OUT

YK gone - tries to go over the top and he is caught

 

[Genghis]

Only 156 to get so if they bat simply the game is still there to be won.

It's just the turbulent emotions of sport. People say all sorts of crazy things - that's why they are called "fanatics".

okay younis khan gone...you might be right ) )

 

[karachiite]

kuptaan saab also has a brain explosion.

 

[TaZ]

YK gone

 

[Sparhawk]

Only 156 to get so if they bat simply the game is still there to be won.

And only 5 wickets left

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Out. Throwing the game away. Can't win matches if u throw wickets away like this. Still though if fawad and misbah can play out the overs we will win.

 

[the Great Khan]

misjudgement from afridi but otherwise he was doing ok..I like the lineup but I think malik needs to be dropped now..as for akmal well I would give him another game then move him down the order..we need to sort out our batting order!!

 

[TaZ]

18.3
Thushara to Younis Khan, OUT, Younis Khan joins the procession, Sri Lanka are well on top here

Younis Khan c Mathews b Thushara 12 (23b 1x4 0x6) SR: 52.17

 

[coca-cola]

fawad alarm aa gaya hai...

 

[karachiite]

time for fawad to shine. These 2 are supposed to have good temprament lets see it now.

 

[coca-cola]

i am officially supporting sri lanka now

 

[Genghis]

And only 5 wickets left

Yeah thats a big blow ... A lot rests with these two now, but we're definately looking down the barrell of another collapse.

 

[karachiite]

How the hell it thushara getting wickets?

 

[Khabri420]

Ordinary bowlers ripping us apart.

YK's terrible run with the bat continues

 

[Sparhawk]

Can Grandpa redeem himself in this match? He'l never get a better opportunity.

 

[karachiite]

He's not quick like malinga, doesn't swing it like kulsekra,

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

Misbah survives a lbw shout

 

[slix10]

Gawd we suck, time to hit the hay.
