Sri Lanka v Pakistan | 1st T20 | Hambantota | Jun 1 2012

[ads101]

Afridi only 2 overs. Done think Lala is going to be happy.

why it's a team game?

We had to use a pacer with ajmal at the end in my opinion (afridi doesn't tend to bowl at the death) and ajmal was rightly preferred over Afridi.

Afridi should have had one over instead of hafeez. But before that last over by Hafeez, Hafeez was outbowling Afridi. He was 3 overs for 10 runs I believe. So can see why he might have preferred another over by him than afridi.

 

[MAJID-SHAH]

Not what you'd expect from

 

[LastLaugh_PK]

Those whom still claim Gul doesn't need dropping from limited over cricket needs shooting. Pathetic.

who do you suggest we pick instead?

 

[JibranAnsari]

where are those yorkers gul?

 

[MAJID-SHAH]

A challenging task lies ahead for our batters for sure.

 

[786warrior]

Just saw the wickets replay - all of tanvir's wickets were to crap balls that should have been hammered! Sami - enough said - waste of space; Gul - what a last over, like a donkey

Only lions afridi and ajmal bowl well, supported by hafeez!!

 

[imshally81]

Fast bowlers gave away 65 in 6 overs for 1 wicket. One of Sami/Gul needs to be dropped in favour of Hammad/Raza

bad team selection....
Sami should be dropped...

 

[Maximas]

Those whom still claim Gul doesn't need dropping from limited over cricket needs shooting. Pathetic.

I disagree, he is still the best for depth over bowling. SriLanda had to go for him as Ajmal really choked them bad.

 

[P4K1 #1]

easy win for pakistan

 

[spaceshot]

Gul going easy today. Can't blame him, we need him full of energy for the World T20.

What a comment.
Maybe u can go ahead and say he better be bowling from the dug out cuz u need him maybe for champions trophy as well.

Gullly is slow starter....

 

[speed]

spinners should have bowled instead of gul

 

[sehban]

Gul never learns from his mistakes and that is what angers me the most...Tanvir bowled well but was extremely lucky today.
Sami should be tried and given the chance throughout the series because he was still clocking 90 today

 

[qamar84]

ten sport showing innings 168 vs srilanka so sad this guy is not test team

 

[786warrior]

Gullly is slow starter....

bro - I hope so - it's disappointing to see Gul bowl so terribly when we know he's so much better - I expect as much from sami

Tanvir got very very lucky today

Afridi should have bowled the last over!

 

[qamar84]

:ahmed start the innings let's see

 

[qamar84]

[carbon11]

ipl nation at 7

 

[MAJID-SHAH]

to shehzadd!!

 

[Sidcricfan]

Khalif Latif ODIs S/R - 67, T20 S/R- 90.

 

[Looney]

We are better ranked than India in T20 . So much for IPL .

 

[adnan yasin]

its tough for a free flowing batsman to bat when 2 batsman got out so early

shehzad will be under pressure

 

[Ruri]

How are England #1 by a margin of 7 points in T20? I was under the impression we've been relatively average except for the WC win. I know we've been 1 for a while, but it doesn't feel right.
