Sri Lanka v Pakistan | T20 | Colombo | 12/8/09

[Usman Chadda]

Yikes! Already 8 off the first 4 balls!

Good comeback by Aamer, gets very good bounce and beats Jayasuriya

 

[Mohsin]

Lucky......it always evens itself up

 

[dirk diggler]

solid start from sri lanka 10-0

 

[Usman Chadda]

We look pumped up! The way Misbah and Ajmal ran after the ball just showed how much these guys are trying today

 

[GLORY OF '92]

as long as they don't get 50/0 in the first 6 we should win this.

 

[Mohsin]

44444444444

 

[dirk diggler]

very poor delivery from rana on the legside

 

[Osman]

Rana to bowl ... not Razzaq .... hmmm interesting .... Razzaq would have been the better option

 

[Waseem]

Rana with a typical BAD start!!!

 

[Usman Chadda]

Terrible delivery by Rana to start off with. Ball is swinging though!

 

[Osman]

exactly what i mean! Rana leaks runs .... just cannot afford that in the opening overs

 

[dirk diggler]

rana needs to avoid too much xperimenting today

 

[GLORY OF '92]

man keep it tight!

flyer will mean they can take it easy on the spinners.

 

[dirk diggler]

that swung

 

[Usman Chadda]

Sri Lanka have raced to 16/0 in 1.4 overs without taking many risks!

 

[Waseem]

Rana will get Udwatte's wicket on the last ball

 

[Mohsin]

Well bowled Rana!

 

[Usman Chadda]

Great yorker by Rana. Udawatte didn't expect that at all

 

[Mohsin]

17-0 after 2

 

[dirk diggler]

good comeback from naveed only 3 from last 5 deliveries

 

[Usman Chadda]

Sri Lanka 17/0 in 2 overs

 

[Waseem]

ALMOST!!!!!
Good to see Rana bowling yorkers this early.

 

[Osman]

better from Rana

 

[Inswinger]

3 off the last 5 balls.

 

[dirk diggler]

i can see this going down to the wire

 

[dirk diggler]

oh man claaated that one

 

[GLORY OF '92]

could go down to the wire but if we bowl well then it should not. get js and sanga.

 

[Waseem]

Aamer to bowl to Jayasuriya....hmmm.....
SHORT ball but Jayasuriya easily hits it for a huge SIX!!!!

It was a plan for sure but not well executed!!!

 

[dirk diggler]

grandad is looking dangerous

 

[Mohsin]

66666666666666666666666

I've got a very bad feeling

 

[Usman Chadda]

What a pull shot! He pre-meditated that. Aamer just a little bit too predictable

 

[Inswinger]

Jaysuriya off to a start.

 

[waqar_ahmad]

Aamir is getting predictable with his short balls

 

[GLORY OF '92]

jayasuriya is due

 

[Mohsin]

Where are the slower balls!?

 

[dirk diggler]

grandad looking to abuse the young man

 

[Waseem]

Brilliant 2 balls by Aamer after being hit for a SIX.
I think he should stick to his normal bowling

 

[dirk diggler]

not out

 

[Mohsin]

grandad looking to abuse the young man

) ) ) ) )

 

[Mohsin]

Took too long i think

 

[Waseem]

Looks like bat is in the AIR!!!!

I think it's OUT.

 

[Inswinger]

Looks like he made it.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

straight and full to js is good.

Grandad abusing that was funny lol

 

[Inswinger]

On 2nd look the bat looks in the air.

 

[Usman Chadda]

I think he is safe. Too much doubt and the benefit of the doubt always goes to the batsman

 

[dirk diggler]

benefit goes to batsman

 

[Waseem]

Benefit of doubt given to the batsman and rightly so.

Good bowling by Aamer though, it was a slower one to Jaya.

 

[Mohsin]

Nope....fair enogh

 

[Inswinger]

Looks out but won;t be given.

 

[dirk diggler]

aamer taking some punishment today

 

[Usman Chadda]

Aamer got whacked in that over, big time!

Sri Lanka 29/0 in 3 overs

 

[Mohsin]

29-0 after 3

Oh dear

 

[Waseem]

Aamer is learning the hard way, there was nothing wrong with that delivery but still went for FOUR.

29/0

 

[Juggernaut]

They going really well ... we need a few wickets ... 3 overs and 29 runs

 

[Inswinger]

Aamir should be taken off now. He's being targeted.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

need to get some control. if they are 60/0 after 6 then they can cruise.

 

[Waseem]

I think we may need to bring spinners in early because Rao and razzaq will be piece of cake on this pitch.

Beautiful slower ball by Rana.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Rana's slower balls at this stage might prove to be priceless!

 

[NavSheikh786]

Razzaq or Rao come on instead as Aamer is going for a few at the mo

 

[dirk diggler]

no ball damn u dam u all to hell

 

[Mohsin]

NO-BALL issed:issed:issed:issed:issed:issed:issed:issed:issed:issed:

[Imr4n_Khan]

need to pick up some quick wickets

 

[Inswinger]

Free hit time.

 

[Mohsin]

)))

 

[Inswinger]

Need a yorker here or a slower one.

 

[Imr4n_Khan]

[Mohsin]

666666666666666

 

[dirk diggler]

6 free runs, we're in trouble here bowling to up to it

 

[Usman Chadda]

Oh damn. Last thing we wanted

And Jayasuriya smacks it for a six. Not good

 

[GLORY OF '92]

no ball!

 

[Big Mac]

Sanath SO good :*)

Can't help but smile even though he's destroying us

 

[Waseem]

FREE HIT .
Rana ALWAYS gives at least one FREE hit as a goodwill gesture.

Free hit GOES for SIX!!!!

Sri Lanka flying right now, need a spinner.

38/0

 

[Inswinger]

That was punished.
Looks like a

 

[Mohsin]

Looks like it'll be a fairly easy chase to far

 

[Osman]

costly costly!!!

 

[Disco_Lemonade]

bowlinggggg changeeee.. BRING SPINNERS EARLY AFRIDI!

 

[Inswinger]

Time for Afridi to get his thinking cap on.

 

[Mohsin]

Us giving them singles at will...shabaash shabaash

 

[Usman Chadda]

Sri Lanka have gotten off to a flier here. Jayasuriya looking very dangerous!
