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

[On_the_up]

If these 2 can stay till the last 10 overs, Abdul Razzaq can do what he does best, smash it to all parts

 

[insaftak]

they have to go for it now

 

[dirk diggler]

the usual suspects all sat there with the fat controller

 

[coca-cola]

anybody else agree that inthikab alam looks like a potato ?

 

[On_the_up]

1 run off that over

RRR up above 6.5 now

 

[MIG]

Just one run ! Cmon, singles ? This is where Inzi was fantastic. He could pick up singles at will and we all know what kind of runner he was !

 

[dirk diggler]

rameez more frustrated than anyone about the batsmens lack of urgency

 

[On_the_up]

anybody else agree that inthikab alam looks like a potato ?

How insightful!

 

[McBoom]

Alam needs to get a move on now.

 

[insaftak]

i want some chaukaes please

 

[MIG]

the usual suspects all sat there with the fat controller

so which one is Thomas?

 

[insaftak]

fawad with more tuk tuk, i want fawad to do well but its time we score some runs

 

[coca-cola]

fawad alam needs to bat a tad more agressively

 

[Sparhawk]

anybody else agree that inthikab alam looks like a potato ?

Yea, Mr potato head from toy story

 

[coca-cola]

How insightful!

 

[On_the_up]

Fawad should be getting the singles to give Abdul Razzaq an opportunity to get the boundaries.

 

[coca-cola]

Yea, Mr potato head from toy story

hahahhaa )

 

[muhammad.kamran]

Alam and Razzaq doing well.

One is a new guy with lot to prove
Other is an old guy who was dropped and is desperate to make a mark here.

Perfect combo.

they should also make the scoreboard moving....Fawad 21(47), Abdul Razzaq 15(26) and RRR 6.86 with 16.1 overs remaining. and they both are on the pitch from 26th over

 

[On_the_up]

another 1 run over.

 

[hasanb]

All those calling for more hitting...you do realise that we have the amazing batting of mohammed aamer, gul and ajmal to come next right? we have nothing...nothing! after these two.

 

[insaftak]

[utube]AUPkqsGH1AY[/utube]

i want this

 

[Genghis]

Fawad is batting poorly here. Needs to look more for the singles like most guys are saying here. Run rate climbing.

 

[On_the_up]

some thing's got to give soon

Have Pakistan taken the batting power play yet?

If not then now might be good time.

 

[pak4life]

When are we going to take the powerplay?

 

[dirk diggler]

razzak looking to cement his place for the next few tours, wont take any risk at all

 

[MIG]

they should also make the scoreboard moving....Fawad 21(47), Abdul Razzaq 15(26) and RRR 6.86 with 16.1 overs remaining. and they both are on the pitch from 26th over

Agreed - this is the bad side of trying too hard to impress...

 

[insaftak]

All those calling for more hitting...you do realise that we have the amazing batting of mohammed aamer, gul and ajmal to come next right? we have nothing...nothing! after these two.

so what should be our strategy, take the RRR to 14 per over and then go for it, i would rather go down swinging instead of tuk tuk

 

[On_the_up]

RRR 7.25 now

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Just hope now razzaq has got his eye in. Need to start the attack now or it will become too hard with malinga.

 

[On_the_up]

razzak looking to cement his place for the next few tours, wont take any risk at all

getting a slow 30 which ends up costing the match is no way to cement your place.

 

[muhammad.kamran]

it seems that Abdul Razzaq is giving the training the bowlers to field off their own bowling.....

 

[On_the_up]

We haven't had a run out yet

 

[insaftak]

4444444444444444444, fawad, about time

 

[Genghis]

About 100 runs needed in 15 overs. Still doable, but these two need to start upping the run rate.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

good batting fawad!

 

[dirk diggler]

thats better lads, put away these dibbly dobblies

 

[insaftak]

another 44444444444444, yes i like it

 

[coca-cola]

Wow Two Fours !!!

 

[On_the_up]

SL at this stage were 139-6

 

[Sparhawk]

Good innings from Fawad once again

 

[muhammad.kamran]

y he left at that stage....

 

[GLORY OF '92]

If these two win it for us that will be sweet. Long way to go.

 

[fawad_wellwisher]

Fawad top scorer for Pakistan now. He needs to be promoted up the order in the next match.

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

Still can win this - its important these 2 hang in for a little while longer

 

[muhammad.kamran]

If these two win it for us that will be sweet. Long way to go.

Pak winning is always sweet to me....provided it is not too late i.e. a win after losing a series

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Batting PP. Don't forget about it please PK. Take it now before we lose a wicket.

 

[muhammad.kamran]

Still can win this - its important these 2 hang in for a little while longer

and score 7-8 run an over as well

 

[Khabri420]

Just when you thought Fawad Alam was looking good

 

[insaftak]

fawad gone

 

[dirk diggler]

Batting PP. Don't forget about it please PK. Take it now before we lose a wicket.

...too late

 

[Sparhawk]

Thats the last nail in the coffin.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Damn! Now needs a razzaq special. We just can't get a partnership.

 

[Sheikh]

Big wicket there at the wrong time. Pity.

 

[rhussain33]

Well i guess hes the highest scorer in the innings so far lol.

Now its down to razzaq to win it single handed with support from the tail for the strike.

 

[insaftak]

Razzaq should go crazy on lankans now

 

[Amjid Javed]

Fawad gone and pretty much game over.

I predict Sri lanka would win by 70 runs...!

 

[Genghis]

If these two win it for us that will be sweet. Long way to go.

Maybe not!

 

[muhammad.kamran]

Still can win this - its important these 2 hang in for a little while longer

sorry to say but again its jinxing......

 

[On_the_up]

Jaya's 314th wkt in his 433rd match

 

[dirk diggler]

oh well, on the bright side i nowhave plenty of time to see this sorry demise and get to the Registry for 1pm to register the birth of my son!

 

[Khabri420]

Razzaq and Gul just need to hit out.

 

[On_the_up]

We need a Murali special from Umar Gul here.

 

[saeed-sohail]

if fawad is the best young batsman we have then I fear for our future.

 

[moz]

Damn, Fawad was just opening up as well, he played well, i really like this kid.

 

[On_the_up]

oh well, on the bright side i nowhave plenty of time to see this sorry demise and get to the Registry for 1pm to register the birth of my son!

Every cloud.....

 

[Khabri420]

Chalo bhai game over

 

[dirk diggler]

it wouldve been better to go down fighting Mr Razzak

 

[insaftak]

game over

 

[coca-cola]

okay...this is the end..

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Hasn't it finished yet?!

 

[Sheikh]

sorry to say but again its jinxing......

I think Razzaq will smack 80* and lead us to victory.

 

[On_the_up]

AR needs to be careful against the spinners, the medium pacers should be..... (stops typing) Who says pakistan are unpredictable?

 

[dirk diggler]

time to move aamer up 2 the deadly no.3 position!

 

[On_the_up]

I think Razzaq will smack 80* and lead us to victory.

I thinks Sri Lanka will cruise this!

Does it work the other way?

 

[coca-cola]

seeing amir bat like this makes it even worse

 

[coca-cola]

amir the next imran khan

 

[MIG]

And on to the next one....

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Folks, Is it worth watching the Pak batting highlights tonight?!

 

[FM87]

Lankans are too good for the mediocre Pakistani players.

 

[Bublu Bhuyan]

Come on, the game isn't over yet.
