Umer Akmal come in.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Good game for Hafeez. In comes Umar. I'd send in Sarfraz.

 

[x-man]

X-man from Pallekele.

 

[talha3]

Hafeez gone. Not before a good innings.

 

[Ahson8]

Hafeez

 

[x-man]

we got this - 100%

Always tell "insha allah"....

 

[Maher96]

Uner Akmal needs to get some good rubs and remain not out. Misbah plz guide him well.

 

[talha3]

Got a start and out.

37 is more than a start. It's the second highest score of the match.

Perspective, my friend.

 

[Bullet Drive]

In comes Umar. He usually does well with Misbah,

 

[saeed-sohail]

Golden boy is in. No pressure just bat sensible and take his team home with a solid 30.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Bowl Malinga now and keep Herath from the other end.

 

[saeed-sohail]

37 is more than a start. It's the second highest score of the match.

Perspective, my friend.

Exactly.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Malinga on.

 

[x-man]

Welcome malinga!!!
This is not MI. So be cool

 

[Ahson8]

Malinga on....

 

[qamar84]

no need to do anything extra vs malinga even a maiden is good

 

[qamar84]

misbah listen to me

 

[Badsha]

Just finish it! Hit hard!

 

[Ahson8]

80/3


X-man from Pallekele cricket stadium. Sri Lanka.

 

[MRSN]

Misbah has played very well underpressure !!

 

[Decipher]

Need a mini batting collapse here to make things interesting. A couple of quick wickets wont hurt much.

 

[Ahson8]

misbah 18 runs in 50 balls ))))))))

Still better than 0(1)

 

[Decipher]

misbah 18 runs in 50 balls ))))))))

You know he "Building the innings" ... regardless of the fact if it's broken or not in the first place.

Do you think Umar will be able to control himself and see the game to the end?

 

[aneeq7]

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan should win this easily

[qamar84]

92/3

 

[DeadlyVenom]

leaving the ball beautifully.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Umar plays very well with Misbah.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

5 similar balls, left with grace and poise.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Misbah playing at an SR of 34.

 

[Maher96]

Because of this approach we aren't able to chase a decent total. They don't know how to pik singles.

 

[aneeq7]

Yes... finally my TV starts working

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan require another 43 runs with 7 wickets and 17.0 overs remaining

 

[Maher96]

Misbah playing at an SR of 34.

Getting readdy for test series coming up.

 

[Maher96]

Umer Akmal looking to explode.

 

[Bullet Drive]

[Bullet Drive]

33.33 SR. The pitch isn't THAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT bad.

[Bullet Drive]

Umar plays out a maiden

 

[Maher96]

Waqar mentioning Murali used to be scared of Saeed Anwar.

 

[Ahson8]

W.Younis: "Murali was afraid of Saeed Anwar"

 

[aneeq7]

Umar Akmal is playing slow and steady.... nice to see that... not going for his lame shots

 

[Badsha]

What a four. That is why I always defend this guy. Pure class. x

Waqar: some times when you play with Misbah you become like him

 

[Bullet Drive]

Umar Akmal on strike now.

 

[Justcrazy]

:4

 

[Bullet Drive]

Waqar: some times when you play with Misbah you become like him

HAHA ) You should make this a thread!

 

[aneeq7]

Can someone count how many Tuks Misbah has played in his ODI career...

would be interesting..

 

[Badsha]

Misbah guiding Umar.

 

[CricketingMinds]

I agree that the Req. RR is not high and there is no pressure of Net RR since this not a tournament. But still, for the sake of practicing 'strike-rotation' Misbah should do a lot better than a 33.33 SR.

Misbah is causing death to ODIs!!!

 

[Bullet Drive]

33 to win. I expect Umar to get 20 of them.
