Sri Lanka v Pakistan | 5th ODI | Colombo (RPS)| Aug 9, 2009 | Pak Innings

[Zeenix]

Srilankans are going OTT i guess. Anyways giving us good practice of pressure games.

 

[hasanb]

Have a feeling that since that attack in Pakistan, he has been seething inside - cant really blame him if that is the case

For sure it was a traunatic and unacceptable incident, however to take it out on the countrys cricket team, shows on the inside hes holding them aswell as Pakistan generally responsible for what happened, and thats not on in my opinion.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

i think i summed it up quite nicely

LOL just read it!

 

[Zeenix]

Which broadcast are you watching then?!

Ten Sports

 

[Rana]

Come on Akmal, give us a hundred again!

 

[Zeenix]

They have dried up the runs.. And this isn't looking good..

 

[Zeenix]

free hit

 

[Rana]

The run rate has gone down

 

[naqlipathan]

Uh yeah becuase Malik is now finished, he is gone and is not coming back so i would get a bit aggrieved at posts that are STILL anti-Malik...people like you aswell just cant stop and think ive got my wish, now lets back off..i did.

As for the one whi is blind..i reckon thats you for not realising that Malik is no longer here yet you still keep up this needless ****,..which frankly....yawn. I didnt see any other poster other than you come one her and start comparing Yousuf innings to Malik..becuase everyone knows that Malik is gone and given his form is unlikely to ever come back, Usman chadda just sumed it up nicely...betah it is you that is blind.

As for being against 90% against your views over Malik..naturally i dont like you.

the feeling is mutual.

and youre living in a fools paradise if you think its all over for malik. he will come back. because there are a lot of blind people out there who have a penchant for mediocrity.

 

[Khabri420]

Come on Umar, hit that free hit for a six

 

[PapaBear]

5 Dot Balls in a row

 

[Zeenix]

Damn just a single of a free hit.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

My Gosh what that umpire might be feeling?

Gave probably the worst decision of the series to Akmal and now the home captain is all over the place due to his right decision.

Poor Gamini Silva )

 

[bluffmasterv2]

hello guys, just started watching , ramiz is saying something about the heated conversation between YK and Sangakarra.. what happened?

 

[karachiite]

sanga complaining about batsmen running on the pitch. Being a real idiot.

 

[Khabri420]

200 up. Misbah please get going.

 

[Blistering Barnacle]

Sangakkara is fiercely competitive, which is why he's such a good player.

However, he's also a whinging baby and a sledger and arrogant.

 

[FM87]

Can Pakistan make 300+ runs today.

 

[classic]

i don't think he had the terrorist incident on his mind ..just believed that he nicked it .. but over done it and am sure the umpires will fine him for it .

 

[PapaBear]

the feeling is mutual.

and youre living in a fools paradise if you think its all over for malik. he will come back. because there are a lot of blind people out there who have a penchant for mediocrity.

Come on Guys, you will be reported by the umpire

 

[Sheikh]

Lost our way a bit in the last 4-5 overs. Need to pick it up again.

 

[naqlipathan]

class innings from younis. showing us what a great player he has been.

how pakistan will suffer in 2 years when there is no younis and yousuf.

 

[Inswinger]

WHat kind of appeal is that?

Pathetic stuff really.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

sanga complaining about batsmen running on the pitch. Being a real idiot.

cry baby cry

 

[bluffmasterv2]

Sangakkara is fiercely competitive, which is why he's such a good player.

However, he's also a whinging baby and a sledger and arrogant.

what happened?

 

[hasanb]

I would pay money to someone right now to have YK come back to the crease and send misbah in his place.

 

[Zeenix]

201/4 of 38 overs

 

[Rana]

last 5 overs 23-1, bad form!

 

[Zeenix]

dot bowl

 

[haroonrasheed320]

Umar misses the free hit (bilyl bowden misses a bowl calls an over after 5 balls lolz)

 

[Rana]

do we have any power plays left?

 

[Zeenix]

3 runs

 

[PapaBear]

Mathews to Umar Akmal, 1 run, Free Hit well not quite the desired result for Umar, it's a low full toss and he makes room but ends up mowing him to long-on off the toe of the bat. wide of Jayasuriya so he's safe
) ) )

 

[OZGOD]

So what's Sangakkara done now? I read somewhere he was acting like an Ozzie? What did he do that was bad? I'm watching the Ashes not this...

 

[rhussain33]

class innings from younis. showing us what a great player he has been.

how pakistan will suffer in 2 years when there is no younis and yousuf.

I can see younis playing longer then yousef who really has aged a bit. Maybe its his beard, hes put on some weight.. too many parateh maybe

 

[OZGOD]

Umar misses the free hit (bilyl bowden misses a bowl calls an over after 5 balls lolz)

Billy Bowden is officiating our match mate...

 

[Zeenix]

elegant defence by MISBAH

 

[Rana]

i think bobby valentino's "slow down" is going through these twos head!

 

[Zeenix]

ANother 2

 

[rhussain33]

Misbah needs to go big get out and make way for afridi and rana...

 

[Khabri420]

Misbah playing for his fifty

 

[naqlipathan]

I can see younis playing longer then yousef who really has aged a bit. Maybe its his beard, hes put on some weight.. too many parateh maybe

younis said in an interview he is really 34 years old. said he will not play for longer than 2 years.

 

[karachiite]

momentum's been killed off in the last few overs.

 

[Zeenix]

Tries to pull. Single taken

 

[FM87]

sangakara is such a rondukara.

 

[karachiite]

Akmal needs not to get carried away. He's going hard at it already without settling down.

 

[Rana]

This is getting terribly boring!

 

[Zeenix]

These two need to blast off otherwise anything less then 320 would be impossible to defend.

 

[ahmed16]

Akmal needs not to get carried away. He's going hard at it already without settling down.

Young blood...feels he needs to prove something...but really its the man at the other end who needs to do alot of proving.

 

[Zeenix]

This is just BULL.. Batting by these two.

 

[Zeenix]

Gone.. Akmal Gone..

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Akmal gone

 

[Rana]

that sort of performance was due. he batted way too late today!

 

[coca-cola]

bye umar

 

[Zeenix]

Tries to hit it over Midoff. Got caught at the boundary..

 

[karachiite]

Akmal suffering from the Afridi syndrome. Hope his success hasn't got to him.

 

[bluffmasterv2]

sigh if they gonna play shots like that, why didnt they take the powerplay ..

 

[Inswinger]

SHould have taken the PP. Might be a bit too late now.

 

[jusarrived]

Now Mathews giving Misbah a sendoff ?

 

[classic]

bring on afridi...

 

[ahmed16]

Umar...kya hua Umar...give the strike to Misbah..let him take the ****.

 

[pak4life]

I dont understand taking the power play from 45-50 overs thats the time to hit out anyway it defeats the whole objective of the powerplay. Hope they take it soon before the tailenders come in.

 

[rhussain33]

Akmal probably felt he had to go cause misbah was taking the mick and being slow...

stupid misbah should have been the one to go. umar was needed to up the runs in the last overs. or in the power play

 

[hasanb]

They never take the powerplay until the last 5 overs...i dont know if they are aware they can tke it before that point.

 

[iZeeshan]

Didn't see why he felt the need to do that.

Still 11 overs to go. Those crisp drives would have eventually found the gap.

Sigh,

 

[Deewana Mastana]

The Firecracker arrives!

 

[MIG]

Afridi should do something special today - last chance in this series ( barring T20)

 

[Inswinger]

Akmal suffering from the Afridi syndrome. Hope his success hasn't got to him.

10 overs to go and another 100 runs needed for a decent total. With Misbah struggling Umar had to go for it.

 

[Rana]

boom boom has 10 overs! what can he do today?

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Take the PowerPlay

 

[MIG]

Now Mathews giving Misbah a sendoff ?

Wonder why their tails are up?

 

[Yossarian]

Akmal probably felt he had to go cause misbah was taking the mick and being slow...

stupid misbah should have been the one to go. umar was needed to up the runs in the last overs. or in the power play

Misbah's strike rate is 91.83 (Younis's was just over 76).
So stop moaning.

 

[Juggernaut]

Afridi needs to bat sensibily atleast until we take the powerplay in the last 5 ... will he play sensibily? thats another question

 

[Khabri420]

Angela and Mahela whining. Wow these Lankans are losing it.

 

[hasanb]

Sril Lankans continuing to be uneccesarily aggressive, i have no doubt that sangakkara has told his guys to be like this. People like jayasuriya and jayawardene will never be like this, they are true gentlemen...but sanga has got the younger guys to follow him like a flock.

Jayawardene has a shy at the stumps hits afridis bat though and goes for 4 overthrows, suck on that one sanga.

 

[rhussain33]

These two should hold it down for a few overs now, only rana left for the big hitting at the end.

 

[pak-admirer]

take the powerplay now, these last 10 overs are basically powerplays anyway

 

[Juggernaut]

These two should hold it down for a few overs now, only rana left for the big hitting at the end.

These two need to play out the remaining overs IMO

 

[Khabri420]

Time to take the power play.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Afridi gone
