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

[Sledger]

It was not out because of the huge inside edge.

 

[adzzy786]

oh no billy doctrove umpiring, why do we keep getting him, inside edge there

billy loves 2 c us lose

 

[Friend786]

wide

 

[Momo]

consistently around and above 140 kph

Good

Jaya was plumb, wasn't he?

 

[azk]

Not very easy to get these two i'll tell you

agreed. missed a huge chance there. could have brought akhtar/aamer back against some of sri lanka's inexperienced middle order.

 

[hur rizvi]

plum

No there was an inside edge

 

[mindless slogging]

Akmal's was not a drop ffs.

The ball flew above his gloves.

Misjudgement in my opinion, and a catch he should have taken (not a first slip catch).

 

[Friend786]

Good

Jaya was plumb, wasn't he?

there was an inside edge

[Sakss]

thats what hee needs to do,,,,bowl straight and give em no room to hit

 

[hur rizvi]

250 chaseable?

Bowl has swung and kulasekara can be dangerous

 

[Strike!]

LOL @ the difference between lord of the match and man of the match.

 

[Amjid Javed]

250 chaseable?

I would rather pakistan be looking to chase less!

 

[ZAK]

This new kit seems quite alright.

 

[adarsh_bang]

Turning out to be a good powerplay for pakistan

 

[Friend786]

4 dot balls

 

[Dr. Khan]

The pitch seems to be slowing down big time.

 

[Sledger]

SL missing a trick by not charging Asif more often.

 

[Cover Drive]

Good over so far

Both Jayawerdene and Sangaseems to be middling the ball perfectly!

 

[Momo]

Who is this constipated commy?

 

[Afridi_Fan]

But that was hitting middle stump!

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

Another wicket here would put Pakistan right on top.

 

[adarsh_bang]

This new kit seems quite alright.

Is this light green or radium green ?

 

[Cover Drive]

The pitch seems to be slowing down big time.

I hope Malik bowls today

LOL @ the difference between lord of the match and man of the match.

There can only be one legit lord of the match!

 

[JeeraBlade]

How quick was Shoaib today?

Running upto the wicket, 10 mph but the balls were around 90 mph.

 

[Friend786]

1 run of the over

 

[ZAK]

59/2 after 13 overs

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

It is important for Razzaq to bowl a good economic spell here.

 

[adarsh_bang]

Building a little partnership these two

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

2 more runs...

 

[Afridi_Fan]

Man need to run a bit quickly.

[Momo]

Running upto the wicket, 10 mph but the balls were around 90 mph.

Is that physically even possible?

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

Another single to Jaya...

 

[adarsh_bang]

abdur razaq is running in faster today isn't he ?

 

[Dr. Khan]

We letting their best two bats play themselves in.
Time for a change and get these trundlers out, maybe Afridi

[azk]

We letting their best two bats play themselves in.

agreed.

 

[Shoaib Akhtar's Fan]

Sanga come down the track and manages to get only two thanks to inspired fielding from our skipper.

 

[Fawad2010]

Beastly Dive

 

[Afridi_Fan]

El-Captino

[Momo]

Beastly dive by Shahid

It seems to be the case, not sure if he is bowling any quicker

 

[Cover Drive]

66-2 (15)

 

[Sledger]

That was a great fielding.

 

[azk]

Good fielding by pak so far ,but shazaib runs like inzi

i lol'd when he tried to push the ball back but the other fielder had already run past him )

 

[cricwiz]

We letting their best two bats play themselves in.
Time for a change and get these trundlers out, maybe Afridi

They are doing a fine job at the moment, let them both get through their overs... Its an ODI not a T20 (patience is the key)

And By the way, both Asif & Razzaq are highly capable of producing some magic deliveries to keep the wicket column ticking...

 

[Cover Drive]

Beastly dive by Shahid

Afridi misfield

[ZAK]

66/2 after 15 overs

From cricinfo's commentary:

Paul sends us this chuckle: "Oops! You forgot to mention the bowling powerplay was taken after the 10th over! Who's commentating? Is it Suresh Raina?" ha!
