[Waseem]

WOW, what a pull shot by Sangakkara.

 

[undisputed]

sangakaraa cracking shot.

 

[asadee]

wats the score

 

[Usman Chadda]

Oh dear we are in trouble. Smashed by Sangakkara for a boundary!

 

[Gollum]

We have allowed them to settle down. They will pace the innings now right till the end.

 

[dirk diggler]

SL seems to be getting 8 rpo without much difficulty

 

[Usman Chadda]

Sri Lanka 64/2 in 7 overs!

 

[Inswinger]

Badly need a maiden here.

 

[MIG]

Nothing to worry about - victory round the corner

 

[Mohsin]

.

 

[adeem_as]

pakistan will lose this one by 7 wickets.

 

[Waseem]

Afridi needs to bowl a CAPTAIN'S spell here because these two are looking VERY dangerous.

 

[dirk diggler]

wats the score

64 for 2 off 7 overs

 

[Mohsin]

close fielding not sharp today

Today?

Its NEVER sharp...in fact we pride ourselves on giving easy singles

 

[Gollum]

All of them are useless. Looks like it will be Afridi again to save the day!

 

[Inswinger]

pakistan will lose this one by 7 wickets.

You need to get back to your cave.....

 

[dirk diggler]

couple of tight afridis overs essential now

 

[SAM'S]

we need a wicket from captain now

 

[Osman]

dot balls here are priceless

 

[Waseem]

Good over by Afridi

4 singles in the first over

68-2

 

[Usman Chadda]

Four singles in that last over. Good one by Afridi

Sri Lanka 68/2 in 8 overs

 

[Waseem]

Iftikhar Anjum to come back???
What is Afridi thinking???

 

[Gollum]

At least Afridi stopped the bleeding. Good over.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Rao is back, either he'll get wickets or he'll be decimated

 

[Gollum]

Iftikhar Anjum to come back???
What is Afridi thinking???

Agreed Malik could have been tried.

 

[OZGOD]

SL cruising atm

 

[undisputed]

need to get this run rate up so sri lanka get under pressure.

 

[dirk diggler]

2 wkts n this game is ours inshallah

 

[Osman]

Rao to stay

 

[Usman Chadda]

Even singles are priceless at this stage. Just need to stop the boundaries

 

[Gollum]

There is absolutely no variety from Rao. One paced half volleys!

 

[undisputed]

HAHA yeaaaaaaah pakistan won this now.

 

[cricketpassion]

Rao

 

[Waseem]

Rao picks Jayawardene, so this is what Afridi was thinking

Very timely wicket for Pakistan

 

[Usman Chadda]

Mahela gone! Mistimed a flick and the ball looped straight up in the air, easy catch for Razzaq. His catching technique is very funny though

 

[Big Mac]

OK hands up, who else thought "Oh crap" when they saw Popeye was underneath the ball?

 

[Osman]

got him!!! LOL

 

[cricketpassion]

Razaq takes a catch

 

[Gollum]

Probably a slower one. Paid dividends immediately!

 

[undisputed]

that is the match there.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Kapugedera in. Very dangerous player, need to get him early!

 

[Mohsin]

I actually thought he was gonna drop it.....side to side, side to side and in the hands!

 

[SAM'S]

Afridi's untimely change works well

 

[NavSheikh786]

Man this RAO the trundler always has a nack of picking up wickets! Well Done Sir

 

[Usman Chadda]

Sri Lanka 74/3 in 9 overs

 

[Gollum]

Ghomagi ghomagi ghomagi!!!! love it!!!1

 

[Waseem]

Good start by Afridi again, 2 runs off the first 3 balls.

 

[asadee]

is Afridi showing extra attitude as captain - i hope he is

 

[undisputed]

good stuf from pak hopefully they can win this now.

 

[Mohsin]

What does Ghumegi actually mean?

Does Akmal mean ghume = run???

 

[Gollum]

What does Ghumegi actually mean?

Does Akmal mean ghume = run???

May be saying it will spin on you on bounce.

 

[waqar_ahmad]

What does Ghumegi actually mean?

Does Akmal mean ghume = run???

It means the ball will spin after bouncing

 

[Usman Chadda]

What does Ghumegi actually mean?

Does Akmal mean ghume = run???

Means the ball will spin when it bounces

 

[Mohsin]

Ah OK, thanks guys

 

[undisputed]

rameez raja lol

 

[Rizwan25]

OK hands up, who else thought "Oh crap" when they saw Popeye was underneath the ball?

Hahahahahaahha lmao

 

[Mohsin]

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL Rameez!

 

[Usman Chadda]

The bunny joins Mike Haysman as a commentator.

Oh dang, that was Rameez in that outfit!

 

[undisputed]

91 of 57 im sure pakistan have won this!

 

[cricketpassion]

good bowling by rao.not giving boundries

 

[Mohsin]

So what do you think Rameez?

 

[Usman Chadda]

SL have to go for their big shots now

 

[Usman Chadda]

So what do you think Rameez?

Ehh ... whatchup doc?!

 

[Gollum]

Even though we were at same score at this stage, but pressure of chase is something else.

 

[Osman]

Iftikhar Anjum to Kapugedera, no run, quick, to his standards, bowled at 135.5 kmph, Kapugedara tries to run it past the keeper towards third man but it zips past the outside edge

)

 

[Waseem]

Rao has definitely bowled really well after the first CRAP over.

 

[Gollum]

Oh that was close!

 

[Mohsin]

Excellent over Rao baby!

 

[Gollum]

Missed a catch opp

 

[dirk diggler]

126k!

 

[Waseem]

Brilliant take by Akmal as it was bowled at extreme pace by AFRIDI.

I think it was out on the next ball, umpire just walked away.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Aamer lost the ball in the lights. Don't blame him in the slightest for that!

Next ball by Afridi is 125.6 kph! Amazing

 

[Gollum]

Some variety on display by Afridi!

 

[Gollum]

Singles won't hurt us at all!

 

[asadee]

Y isn't Razzaq bowling?

 

[Usman Chadda]

32 balls since last boundary! Good stuff by Pakistan!

Make that 33, after the dot ball to Kapugedera!

 

[Waseem]

Another 125.5 kph delivery by Afridi, good over by Afridi and dot ball to finish so brilliant work by the captain.

89/3
