No doubt we are the best fielding side in world cricket right now. As well as this, we have the best up-coming batting, spin bowling and all-round talent in Pakistan. Fast bowling needs a little work but it'll be okay once Amir is back.

Fair to say we will be the best cricket team in this next 2+ years and that will last for the next 10-15 years.

Love the optimism and I pray this happens. For this to come true though PCB it self has to show better player management. Talent has never been an issue, the root cause is grooming that talent to achieve consistency. We are a nation that wants immediate results and we aren't willing to wait. 2+ years is a long time, in that period we will see many players/coaches/management come and go. The good, the bad and the ugly. Right now it looks good. Let's hope it stays that way
 
YESSSSSSSSSSS!!!!

I knew Imad would get Dilshan. An arm ball against Dilshan is always useful.

Knew it!!!
[MENTION=130260]Executioner[/MENTION] he he he he he :))
 
Imad is a quality cricketer. If he was in any other country, he'd be their premier spinner.
 
Imaddy is a quality all-round cricketer.

I hope you guys see him bat today. Very good batsman too.
 
Is it just me or imad has a bit of a pot belly. His arm ball is great but his action looks like it puts a lot of pressure on his body.
 
great wicket. Imad has a nice clean side action, much like a seam bowler. Good to see this compared to our conventional head on spinners.
 
Get a slip in . thiramanne has edged it 3 times now against imad but no slip.
 
Spinners are keeping it very tight. Good stuff. But need to chip in with a wicket or two in next 2-3 overs.
 
A slog is coming from MAthews in this or next over. looks little frustrated.
 
One thing azhar has improved as a captain in is shuffling the bowlers. He looks more proactive and uses his fast bowlers in the middle. Next he should look to improve his field placing.
 
Like i said good bowling changes by azhar in this match.

Matthews out
 
i knew meddo is a great run dryer , he bowls nagging line and length
 
Matthews has batted poorly in this odi series. I think he should have allowed chandimal to come in earlier. Wicket came courtsey of pressure built in last 8 overs. Azhar Ali string the right combo of bowlers
 
Yeah and he'll only learn and get better with time, we just need to be patient.

I have always maintained that he needs to be given time. He started as a terrible captain i must admit but he is learning clearly .
 
SL a bit too slow despite of recovering from initial loss.

Doesnt look like they will make a huge total
 
SL doesn't seem to have any lower order hitters.

Or are there anyone reliable?

This match could be fun if SL posts a nice total and let's Pakistan chase.
