Sri Lanka v Pakistan | Asia Cup: Match 1 | Dambulla | 15/06/2010 | Sri Lanka Innings

[kamranO]

41.2
Shahid Afridi to Kulasekara, 1 wide, 97.6 kph, Stumping chance missed. Not a surprise if you have followed Kamran's career. It was down the leg side and Kula had leaned forward to flick and lost balance and had stepped well out of the crease. But Kamran doesn't collect it cleanly. Oh well

 

[Momo]

Mathews, sorry but you are no Afridi! )

 

[Sledger]

Have to say, Razzaq has been brilliant today.

 

[MB]

Am I the only one who thinks you've got your priorities wrong?

I don't see the point of playing the adhan on TV...

 

[Dil Dil Pakistan]

Geo have cut the match and are now playing the adhan...

Surely not necessary during the middle of a match.

so you give more importance to the match than teh adhan ???

 

[akbarc1]

Geo have cut the match and are now playing the adhan...

Surely not necessary during the middle of a match.

Not necessary?

 

[Khabri420]

Abdul Razzaq has bowled well today - straight and simplle

His fielding well...the less said the better issed:

 

[adnan yasin]

Have to say, Razzaq has been brilliant today.

yeah .. with the ball.. he was

on field.. he is still the same not in a mood to run

 

[Cover Drive]

197-7 (43)

 

[AZ]

Super stuff Razzy bhai, chhaa gaye!

 

[Sakss]

matthews chacha ko out kero

 

[IAJ]

SL to take power play soon as a message from the captain is coming now

 

[ZAK]

197/7 after 43 overs

 

[MIG]

Whats the point of Azan anyways - like we all have watches and the internet - and Saeed from 3 houses down can always shout out if their is a chance of namaz

 

[AZ]

Interesting choice! Asif brought back!

 

[Sledger]

Asif on, this could be expensive.

 

[ZAK]

Shoaib still has a chance to pick pick up a 5fer

 

[Momo]

Whats the point of Azan anyways - like we all have watches and the internet - and Saeed from 3 houses down can always shout out if their is a chance of namaz

)

 

[AZ]

Shoaib ko long on se hatao! He's already tired!

200 up!

 

[khalil1986]

So far so good

 

[Cover Drive]

200 up for Sl

 

[adnan yasin]

BEauty by ASIF ..... he bowled really well.. but his figures not reflecting that

 

[Sledger]

200 is up.

 

[AZ]

Good over from Asif, gave nothing away.

 

[NorthStar]

I don't see the point of playing the adhan on TV...

Good on Geo ... Adhan is more important than any Cricket Match or Drama Serial!

 

[azk]

BEauty by ASIF ..... he bowled really well.. but his figures not reflecting that

he was off the mark in his first spell but recovered well afterward.

 

[MB]

Whats the point of Azan anyways - like we all have watches and the internet - and Saeed from 3 houses down can always shout out if their is a chance of namaz

Precisely. I don't need the adhan played on TV to remind me that the time for namaz has started. Chances are, if you're in Pakistan you can hear the adhan from the local mosque anyway.

 

[ZAK]

201/7 after 44 overs

 

[LG]

BEauty by ASIF ..... he bowled really well.. but his figures not reflecting that

Those first two overs spoiled it.

 

[Sledger]

Problem is Razzaq's lost his yorker completely.

PP 3 taken by Sanga.

 

[AZ]

Powerplay 3 time!

 

[adnan yasin]

6 overs ..15 mins left .... 5 mins ka grace to mil jata hai i think

 

[Cover Drive]

Batting powerplay taken

 

[Momo]

POP taken.

 

[azk]

powerplay taken. time for some aamer/akhtar yorkers?

 

[ZAK]

The batting powerplay has been taken

 

[adnan yasin]

Those first two overs spoiled it.

yeah ...

 

[akamaka]

we need to knock over kula, and will clean up the tail!!!

 

[MB]

Akhtar back on.

 

[Sledger]

Here's Shoaib. Watch out for some stump smashing!

 

[Cover Drive]

Akhtar to bowl from his normal runup

 

[Sledger]

Akhtar bowls the yorker first up, they take 1.

 

[azk]

nice swing there

 

[adnan yasin]

hmm.... we are about to see YORKERS from shoaib ...

he is altering his action for yorkers

 

[ZAK]

Here's

 

[coy0607]

shoaibs chance to getting a 5er, would be a dream comeback

 

[azk]

now that's what i'm talking about

 

[Sledger]

Another perfect yorker, just one more. Great start to the over.

 

[Momo]

This Bangladeshi commentator tries (poorly) to sound like William Buckley Jr.

 

[AZ]

Oyeeee, awesome yorker! Bach gaya sala!

 

[MB]

Bit of a kerfuffle between Afridi and Akhtar there.

 

[Romali_rotti]

Pak bowling doing its job so far, congrats Akmal on a another missed stumping.... 250 plus might be a bit too much for Pak to chase under lights..


Also does any aussies here know why this match is not available on Foxtel ?

 

[Amjid Javed]

I can see Sri lanka getting 250 which will be a huge let-off from Sri lanka!

 

[adnan yasin]

4 of 4 so far in the over ...

 

[azk]

Bit of a kerfuffle between Afridi and Akhtar there.

i think it was about either field placings or his run-up/over rate.

 

[ZAK]

Good bowling by Shoaib

 

[AZ]

Yaar iss Bangali ko chup karao! Lame dialgoues!

 

[Pakistani tigers]

what is a kerfuffle?

 

[adnan yasin]

nice bouncer

 

[Cover Drive]

Good bouncer by Akhtar

 

[IAJ]

Really love shoaib's bouncers, they are seldom called wides

 

[akamaka]

what is a kerfuffle?

well lets just say they werent agreeing with each other!

 

[ZAK]

Wonderful over by Shoaib!

 

[Sledger]

great over.

 

[Cover Drive]

Very smart over by Akhtar. Bowled beautiful yorkesmrs both fast and slow

206-7(45)

 

[adnan yasin]

7 mins left .. 5 overs

chal bahi ... captain ke 10% fee to gayee aaj

i think he made up his mind form the beginning .. when he chose 4 fast bowlers

 

[Momo]

what is a kerfuffle?

Kerfuffle is what just happened between Afridi and Akhtar (apparently).

 

[Cover Drive]

A good bouncer turned wide

 

[chill79]

Its nice to see Shoaib Akhtar bowling in rythym but still he is looking tired. I doubt he is fit for test matches

 

[PerfectionPersonified]

Akhtar is definitly back but i have doubts about his fitness in tests..........ODI or T2o perfect for him

 

[MB]

Its nice to see Shoaib Akhtar bowling in rythym but still he is looking tired. I doubt he is fit for test matches

Very limited chance of him playing a Test, methinks.

 

[AZ]

Good stuff from Aamer, full and straight.

 

[LG]

Yorkerrrrr!!!! :aamir

 

[adnan yasin]

yorkeeeeeeeeed .. bowwwleeeeeeeeeeed

finally something goood from amir today

 

[MB]

Yorkered!

 

[Sledger]

bowled him.

 

[Cover Drive]

Bowled! Beautiful yorked by Aamer

 

[Momo]

KillA!!!

 

[Seen Sheen]

cleaned him up with a perfect yorker....

 

[Amjid Javed]

I think Akthar is just fine for ODIs and T20.
