Great stuff by Cricinfo.

As Delhi Doodhwalas or Calcutta Chaprasees are not playing, Cricindo has gone to sleep!

Match starts in 15 mins, and the "live coverage" is a dead duck. No teams, no commentary, no emails, no nothing.

Very, very poor.

 

[arsalan660]

Kit is not that bad as most members were saying.

 

[Friend786]

what is the line-up?

There is a whole thread on this.

[cricwiz]

Shoaib Akhtar needs a hair cut .... Short hair would make him look a bit more younger & fitter..

Someone tell him that short hairs are "IN" all round the world...

 

[azk]

89.6

 

[amar1212]

good over

 

[iafzal]

Seein the slow-mo Akhtar is jogging into bowl, not really sprinitng and when he bowled not too much follow through. Using his bulk to force the ball.
Looks rusty and a little labored

 

[Ali888]

Akhtar really starting to crank up the pace

 

[Fawad2010]

Decent start.

 

[BoomBoomAfridi]

what on earth is wrong with the kit????

BoomBoom has no clue in designing kits!

 

[Afridi_Fan]

not that fast

LoL, He has already hit 140 in his 1st over on International return. What you want? He should start with 150+

 

[Friend786]

asif is bowling now

 

[bantu]

Tidy over....... 5 runs for akthar

 

[hur rizvi]

5/6 balls above 140k


Shoaib is still shoaib.........

 

[Dil Dil Pakistan]

Decent First over for a guy whos playing international cricket after a year

 

[iZeeshan]

SO happy to see Shoaib back it's ridiculous

 

[azk]

not that fast

i'd be happy with his 90mph yorkers. lets see if he can get faster though.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

What a delivery to start with.

 

[Cover Drive]

Beauty from Asif!

 

[iafzal]

Asif is looking sharp and faster then usual

 

[Dr. Khan]

I agree definitely. Wanted to make the same point.

 

[Afridi_Fan]

[kuthaman]

[Ali888]

fielders seem to be backing up bowlers so far
